The two loft to go out and make n general Inspec tlve of the mine with a view of re opening and re-equipping this old time producer, which was announced some time ago before the owner left Paris. It was during the early part of 1914 that Mr. Blanchin was here on the ground superintending the com nletion of a power line and modern mill and mine equipment at . the Bill Nye broke out. He being an officer In the reserve force of the French army, left on a day's notice to join his command on the front and was In active service all during the war. After a several year absence of the owner of the Bill Nye the care taker's Hens were foreclosed and the new and modern equipment of the property was stripped from the (nine and sold to satisfy theso liens, ana went on from time to time when all was taken which would bring a price. In the meantime and at the close of the war, taxes were foreclosed on the property, when the owner at Paris got . in communication with , Mr. Moore and forwarded funds to redeem his properly, nnd since that time he has been awuiting a chance ,to come to America to recover the : Bill Nye and his string of other inlnno In Cn 1 1 f r?-v in t.nrl Mpvlrn which met a like fate of the local mine auring nis a use nee. Mr. Blanchin is delighted to get back to southern Oregon and has much confidence In his local prop erty as a rum re producer, jn speak Ing of gold mining and Its posslbill ties, he said: "Mining will be the foundation of southern Oregon's great future wealth; that his people will turn to mining in America as source of recovering their lost wealth as fast as they can extract their money from tho European tangle and divert it to this mining channel, The Bill Nye was discovered about 1900 by B. H. Nye, an old-time resi dent of Gold Hill, and now a resi dent of Talent. He and his' father, now several years deceased, recovered many thousands of dollars In virgin gold from high-grade free milling ore near the surface of the ground from the first strike on tho property, and since that time It has produced much gold at a greater depth by its former owners. The foundation and possibilities of the mine In the large body of ore at a greater depth when it will turn from free-milling to base ore, which the present veins have a tendency to show as depth is at tained.
