THIS Interesting paragraph appears
In the news:
"The Waleys entered nonchalant
and amused pleas of not guilty to
the charge of kidnaping George Wey
erhaeuser and of conspiring with fu
gitive William Mahan to use the
malls to defraud George's father of
the ransom sum."
Here's hoping the Jury will be
equally nochalant In rendering a ver
dict on the evidence.
IT sounds heartless and horrible to
say It, but It Is to be hoped that
the hangman does his duty efficient
ly, If not nonchalantly, when the
proper time comes.
Kidnaping is a heartless and hor
rible thing not something to be
nonchalantly laughed off.

this:

H. G. Mitchell, have opened up new

Plans More Labor
'Besides the creation of two widely
separated mines on our nearly 400
acres of that mountainside overlook'
ing Medford. we have uncovered sev
eral other seemingly Independent
veins In the half dozen levels upon
which work la being vigorously push
ed by two shift, which we expect to
Increase to three in the near future.
These various ore shoots are from a
few feet to thirty feet in width, the
best of all of from ten to fourteen
feet at the very bottom, nearly 1000
feet below the apex. This vein Is
opened up by two shafts already sunk
over 100 feet each on milling ore.
from the bottom of the No. 18 level.
This level Is In ore assaying from a
few dollars to over S100 per ton In a
goodly proportion of Its length of
over 2A00 feet. This Is what I call
the lower mine. The upper mine, so
far opened by a tunnel of 500 feet, on
a vein of $5 to (20 ore, from five to
seven feet thick, Is also very promis
ing snd provides nearly half of our
milling capacity. We have built a
fairly good road from this opening
down to the mill, over a mile distant,
OJid which Is now being Improved for
better hauling during the wet winter
months.
"Between these two mines were
about half a dozen other levels op
ened In the early days, which are be
ing connected with No. 18 by up
raises and, besides a tremendous vein

revealing substantial reserves of mill

to 40 feet In width of low grade ore.
which Is expected to be more largely
utilized In the future, when large
scale operations and a larger percent
age of recovery of values make It
feasible. We have connected the No.
11 level with the mill by a modern
tramway of 1500 feet. When, aa in
Alaska and elsewhere, we can reduce
our total costs of mining and milling
from about (4 per ton to half that
figure, upon which our experiments
never cease, you may expect to hear
great thlnga of No. 11.
New Equipment.
"The 100-ton dally capacity mill,
situated Just below the lower or main
mining level. Is equipped with the
latest and most efficient machinery
obtainable. It has been so planned
and built that we can double Its ca
pacity with only a fraction of its
original cost. This we. of course, have
In view for the near future. Our great
problem has been the recovery of val
ues. From on average recovery of
about 85 per cent, we have steadily
Improved In the last four months to
85 per cent and we have high hopes
of reaching from 90 to 95 per cent
In the near future. This overcoming
of metallurgical difficulties alone
makes possible the mining of thous
ands of tons of ore heretofore un
profitable. Thus has a silent, obsolete
wreckage of an old mining venture
been given new life, at an outlay of
several hundred thousand dollars. In

First Interest In 18:8.
"I commenced absorbing Informa
tion and doing a lot of mining ex
ploitation here aa far back as 1878.
Then we could come by rail from ,
Portland only as far as .Roscburg
thence staging It to Redding, which
was as near as the Southern Pacific
approached from San Francisco. I had
to go Into these things somewhat

Having seen much real scientific.

I found no difficulty in pitching such

Oregon as I would hate to see In

tailed his railroad construction quite 1
a bit, could he have foreseen the out- i

that any country that could show i

crops would easily duplicate such al
luring examples as I had met In the
Rocky mountains.
"However, I should aay right here
that I was much more Interested In
the copper deposits near Happy Camp
and In the Illinois valley and the
huge timber resources hereabouts,
on account of the much heavier ton
nage they offered, than In the gold
mines. To this end I made prelimi
nary surveys for quite an Important
branch system, taking In Applegate
valley. Medford. lower Klamath river
and the Klamath Falls country, this
last part which I took so much pleas
ure In building many years later.
Not Mlne-Mlnded.
"But after those first flush days
real mining here got off to an awfully
bad start, from which it has never
recovered. That is why Oregon la not
'mlne-mlnded' and has never gone at
the Industry seriously like the states
Z have mentioned. Mineralogists tell
us that this gold all comes from the
bowels of the earth; that, as It was
forced upward through the veins and
crevices near enough to the surface
to encounter the action of the ele
ments, deposits were generally rich.
Hence the pockets, which here in
Jackson and Josephine counties, were
so often so fabulously rich, and tho
material which held them so decom
posed that reclaiming the gold, either
on the mountains or down the
gulches into which It gravitated, was
so easy that everybody waa spoiled
for anything like legitimate mining
beyond the depths of pick and shovel,
or the laborious hand windlass and
the mere gophering in short tunnels.
"Thus there was no such thing as
mining In the early rush days. Farm
ers, cowboys, fruitgrowers, pioneer
bankers.' everybody, rushed In, dug
here, there and everywhere and many
scooped up from the rich surface de
posits fortunes almost overnight.
Scores of them pounded out their re
wards in hand mortars. Others se
cured theirs with the rude arastras
and a few even went so far as In
stalling small stamp mills which, of
course, could only recover a small
proportion of the values, when sink
ing reached the real permanent de
posits. I can still see those chunks of
decomposed quartz from the Opp
mine in Banker Beekman's windows
at Jacksonville, which were a part of
tne sioo.ooo he took out of the mine
In an unbelievably short time. The
thrill of those nuggets and stringers
of pure gold which held the frag
ments of quartz together was enough
to turn anyone Into a gold digger.
That fascination, you know, prevails
to tnia day at Jacksonville, where
some streets and many back yards
are being mined as of yore. But those
who were thus lrreslstably fascinated
were Irretrievably spoiled for the
honest to goodness effort and ex
penditure of cold cash necessary to
build up a real mining Industry on
the strength of the refractory ores
which invariably followed at shallow
depths. It all goes to show that you
don't Just strike a big mine. You
have to dfg hard and deep to make It.
like any other business. When they
could no longer rob mother earth so
easily they moved on. while those who
were disappointed generally settled
down to cultivation of the fertile val
ley soil or engaged earnestly in the
business lines common to a new coun
try. Thus was crnited one of tho
most beautiful towns in America here
at Medford. Had those who abandon
ed mining expended the same effort
and money there as they did In other
lines, their success probably would
have been even greater.
Few Hove Faith.
"A comparatively few who aigued
that the precious nvitnl having origi
nated at depth and at:l existed in
quantities on the many well defined
veins, persisted In flowing the lat
ter down toward the real source of
all this golden treasure. Out of their
faith and untiring efforts we still
have the two outstanding quartz
properties of Oregon right here. They
are dolly Illustrating what an un
dying persistence and finally Intelli
gent application of the best methods
of following and of extraction of the
ores and recovery of values from their
stubborn low grade, refractory con
tents will accomplish. I refer to the
Greenback and Opp nvnes, the for
mer still pounding away on the leaner
ores, after a production of some $4,-
000,000 on Its way down several thous
and feet, and the latter, after vicissi
tudes almost innumerable, down there
about 1000 feet, making the best
showing in twenty years.
"Right here, after almost a lifetime
experience in mining and mining
states, I hazard the opinion that
scores of other properties In southern
Oregon might well have been brought
up to the stage of the Greenback and
the Opp but for a failure of nerve
and lack of capital of the mining ele
ment and citizens of Oregon generally.

It a allure by pulling up stakes and
moving to other fields. Then we must
not forget that abandonment of a
mining property was often due to the
much larger costs of unwise opera
tions and other causes than now. For
example, an original owner of the Opp
handled his ores some six times in
the short distance of a mile from
mine to mill, where we now handle
them only once. Moreover, returns of
S20 per ounce for gold formerly meant
a loss In many properties, whose low
grade ores would now pay handsomely
at 35.
Need New Spirit.
"What we most need Is a thorough
rejuvenation of the mining spirit
here at home. This means for all
hands to "be made to realize the Im
portance of the successful develop
ment of a few more mines, its Influ
ence upon the opening up of others,
and Its value to the community gen
erally In Its liberal payrolls and Its
favorable reaction on all other Indus
tries and lines of business. The suc
cess of one big mine has. In times of
stress, put new life Into such cities
as Denver, Salt Lake, Butte, Boise,
Spokane and Seattle and has stimu
lated the consumption of products of
farm, field and orchard as nothing
else can. More Interest must be mani
fested In mining generally than is
shown by one of Oregon's otherwise
finest histories of about 2000 pages,
which devotes less than a dozen lines
to the industry, without mention of
Oregon mines, A funny thing about It
Is that it is a mere allusion to the
injury to sheep raising here, through
the stampedes of flockmasters and
herders from Oregon to California
mining camps, thus boosting the in
dustry down there Instead of advanc
ing it here where It was the real par
ent of all others."
