GREATEST M INERAL Discovery In Josephine County Is Simply "Staggering" in Its Immensity, ls.lt a Dream, or Will the Facts Bear Out This Statement?--rilen!Who tiave Visited It and the Assayers Saylt ls!AII Right. " There-are mining storios and oth er mining stories, but there has never been anything ever suggested In the mining lino, that Is la tho class -with tho story of Uio discovery ol'Utf'and platinum "in Southern Oregon First there is tho fact that tho oro Is of very high grade, and then, ' and this is what makes the story, bo hard to believe, is tho im ' nionsW'"bf tho'Ie'dlo- and tho unl f orm)jg.ro.dp...sf tho.,. ore clear across thOiltromondous dyke.;( ; .

' Yet horo aro tho facts that cannot bo dodged or gainsaid! That tho mlno la as largo as It is claimed to be, wo 1 avo tho statement of every Salem n in th,at has, gono down to seo It. Ui& there has been quite a numbor jf them. That tho oro-, . carries tho values claimed for thdm. we havo tho cer tificates of assdyers at Grants Pas? arid of Professor Boyor of tho Wll lairfotto University, who visited tho mine and who plclccd at random on it samples of the oro which he brought homo and assayed himself, and ho tefl? you, , that tho ore3 will run ifrom aboutan'ounco of platl- numk'td'tho ton up. to about si ounces1 and that they carry from 1 3' to 20 por' cont tin. An ounce of platinum Is worth $22, 'and tin is worth 28 cents -a pound. . Tho 'calculation Ib simple Flvefpen.contfHIn, means 100 pounds -to the'tpn; worth $28, and an ounpn of pl'Sujutm Is worth $22; $28 and $22 makes ?5"0. This is only aobut onoUhlrdf-of 'j.hQ' average assay val ues, nn'd surely that Is not "stretch ing if' The ledgo Is three miles long' and it is 700 foot wldo, na Mr. Kills and tlffStUfcrgontlemen who wont down wuh him toll, It, and It sticks up nbovo ground from l'OO -to more thjn.'200 i feet. Averaging tho holghtof ho;hdg"o its 100 fgot and itjja jnpro' thnpvthat, wo h,ovo thtj problem $t say v 15,000 fojt (loss tlron thfeo miles) multiplied' by 7u0, (Its width), and this roault by 100 (its holght). The result Is 10,00,000,000 cubic feet. Ton cubic foot will wolgh a ton, and this g'iyqs you 10C, 000,000 tons of oro ahovo tho lovol of tho ground that assays nbovo $16(1 per ton. To wjrk this out jrould tako a plant, handling 10,000 tons of oro a day, 30 years; To work out tho oro down tho 3,000 foot lovol, to which, farther boyond it, this dyke will go down, would tako tho samo plant 900 years. It is any wonder that tho very idea of such a' stupendous body of oro is simply like 'staggering!" That it sounds tho babblings of 'insanity. Tho samo law that mado a Shet land pony, mado a Clydesdalo! the samo law mado "Piety Hill" and Mt Hood. So after all It is our idoa that nothing can bo blggor than what wo havo seen, is all there is to make ono stand aghast at 'the story. Because Wo havo been Gulli- vorflmong tho Iilliputlans-is- no Tca sottthat vyo should doubt tfip exist ence of tho other extreme, tho Brob dlncnaglans. ; The truth is that the 'ftndln spuihorrt Oregdn is the great est discovery ever dreamed of or olse -the. wholo croWd . that went down to see it aro mighty badly fooled, and tho gentlemen who mado the assays do not know; what they wero doing. If the assayers can put common rock Into a cruclblo and take out platinum and tin then that Is a bigger thing than even any mlno. But as they cannot do this tho only other explanation is that they got tho tin and platinum out of tho ores, and If they got them out them thoy must necessarily be In tho rock, and if they aro in the rock then tho story is true, and there you aro.
