No Advertising Aecepted for First Page NECESSITY FOR STUDY ON EXPERIENCE gained by close observation during the past four years we dealt, last fall, in these columns, with the advisability of engineers visiting the district for specific purposes, first of all acquainting themselves with its various systems of ore occurrences. This should in no way be interpreted as a reflection upon engineers, indiivdually or collectively but only as an attempt to stress a point that appears to be too often overlooked, with the result that many good opportunities are passed up, only to be taken advantage of some years later by other people. There have been several cases of this in the past, and unless a closer study of the district is made by examining engineers, no matter how competent, there will be many more. This is by no means an easy district to examine, or to understand. There are complicated conditions hard to find elsewhere, all of which have to be taken into consideration if an intelligent decision is to be reached. Engineers visiting the district this summer will have many opportunities for study that were not available in the past. Premier, Indian, Dunwell and Outsider, each with its extensive underground workings, offer splendid opportunities for observation, for each presents a different and yet, in seme respects, a similar problem, problems the examination and understanding of which would be most helpful. On this point, in passing, the Big Missouri must not be overlooked. Consider the years that have been spent on this property, more or less feeling around in the dark, by many of the best, before a key to the system was discovered. Why not benefit by tbe experiences of others? This year there will be many other openings that can be observed with profit; Glacier Creek, Independence, Rufus, George Copper, Porter-Idaho, Fish Creek, Riverside, j Daly Alaska, Eldorado and Cronholm-Bar- j tholf. ! No engineer visiting the Portland! Canal district this summer, could spend a! more profitable month than by,visiting, with a view to understanding, the prob- j lems presented on the above mentioned properties. In conclusion and substantiation���how many engineers looked at, and walked away from, the Premier, Indian, Dunwell, Outsider and Biy Missouri? Why? Because they did not understand the mineralogical conditions of the district, therefore, how could they grasp tho situation on these properties? Experience has proven that it is a waste of! time and money for an engineer to come to this] district, relying on what he has read, and exper-; ience in other fields-, to go straightway and exam-1 ine a property. In justice to himseif, his principals and the property, he should first spend at least a month making a study of the openings available. The knowledge thus gained he will find invaluable in making an examination.
