N THE quiet succeeding the uproar
until recently emanating from the
camps of Nevada , there becomes
audlblo a modest plea for recogni
tion from a comparatively un
known region of northern Cali
fornia.
One of the most promising of these
districts Is that comprising the west
ern fourth of Slskiyou county , the ad
jacent portions of Humboldt and Del
Norto and the northern part of Trin
ity , a compact area approximately
2,500 square miles. The Klamath , the
Scott , the Salmon tbo north and
south forks of the last named and
the Now rivers traverse this territory ,
and with their numerous tributaries
constitute Its drainage system.
To the professional , as to the casual
mining operator , It will appear as a
surprising fact that approximately half
of this great area , or 1,200 square
miles Is virgin ground to the miner
unprospected and unappropriated pub
lic land. That this unknown area is
rich in mineral Is beyond question ,
since those regions , north , south , east
and west , so far explored , are uniform
ly and heavily mineralized.
Prospecting here has so far been
confined to these narrow strips of
country constituting the principal
drainage lines the river heretofore
named and Immediately adjacent
thereto.
Geographically , this district divides
itself Into three sections the "Klam
ath , " and the "Salmon , " the "New
river. " Mineraloglcally there are but
two sections , the "Klarnath" and the
"Salmon , " Uio "Now river" lying Im
mediately south of and Its formation
being Identical with that of the "Sal
mon. "
In the Klamath , the base ores Iron ,
copper and cinnabar predominate , In
the "Salmon" occur free milling gold
ores almost exclusively , with no base ;
and to the writer's knowledge but ono
complex ere has been encountered , a
high-grado $700 tellurlde accompany
ing very rich "specimen" gold.
The "Salmon , " properly so-called , ex
tends from the Salmon mountains'
summit to the cast approximately
thirty miles west Into Humboldt coun
ty , and from just north of the North
fork of the Salmon river south 20 miles
to the Trinity mountains' summit ,
where the "New river" section begins.
This great , heavily mineralized area ,
Including "Now river , " has mostly
been merely scratched over , only a
very small portion has been fairly
prospected. In no case has anything
approaching intelligent and systemat
ic underground exploration been car
ried out.
The prevailing rocks are these of
California's mother lode , and of Ne
vada county metaphorlc and aurifer
ous slates ( Including marlposlte ) gran
ite , porphyry and dlorlte. The quartz ,
with few exceptions constituting the
vein matter , is identical In character ,
structure and contained matter with
that of the last regions named , where
deep workings have demonstrated the
permanency of such veins In these
enclosing rocks , and also the Impor
tant fact that the ore's free milling
character persists to great depth. The
ores of the "Salmon , " as has been
eald , are almost wholly free milling ,
usually carrying one to three per
cent , of high grade concentrates in
the form of iron pyrites , galena and
rlno blende.
Many veins of this section are blind ,
or nearly so , cropping only at Inter
vals nnd then to no great extent ,
which accounts , somewhat , for the re
tarded development In the nature of
things this condition Is to bo expected.
The surface Is exceedingly rugged ,
heavily Umbered and brushy. The
precipitous slopes usually carry a
heavy over-burden of talus nnd soil.
All this has Its ultimata advantages ,
as It implies unlimited timber supply ,
water under high beads , and the possi
bility of mining by tunnel instead of
by shaft.
The creeks and rivers of the Salmon
have a recorded gold production of
over $25,000,000. ( Slsklyou'a record
approximates $150.000,000. ) Very
nearly all this has been produced with
out capital other than the labor of the
miners engaged and the very limited
financial means at their command. In
other words , this section has devel
oped it by its own resources. Hydrau
lic and placer mining is still usually
carried on by the crude methods of
fifty years ago , or at least with in
adequate equipment. On the main
streams there is yet available consid
erable ground suitable for the dredger
or elevator and for hydraullcklng.
Adjoining the "Salmon" on the
north , extending to within a few miles
of the Klamath river , approximately
30 miles , and from the Marble moun
tains' summit on the east to beyond
tbo Humboldt county line pn the west
for close to 25 miles , is a region , for
all practical purposes a terra Incog
nita. Surrounded on nil sides by
ground known to be heavily mineral
ized , this 700 square miles may be
fairly assumed to be more or less min
eralized. The occasional trapper or
Indian reports quartz float to be plen
tiful and the numerous streams to
contain gold. This region , however ,
is wholly unprospected ; there Is not
a single mineral location of record In
it It would seem worthy of explo
ration and prospecting.
Adjoining this unknown region to
the north is the "Klamath" section ,
extending from a few miles south of
the Klamath river ( which drains it )
north 18 miles to or beyond the Oregon
gen line , and from the vicinity of
Gottsville on the cast 65 miles to be
yond the Del Norto county line on the
west , The Slskiyou range traverses
it from east to west , Its summit , whose
trend is Irregular , lying six to twelve
miles north of the Klamath river.
The "Klamath'a" prevailing rocks
are the crystalline elates and schists ,
overlying dlorlte and gabbro. Lime
rock , granite and serpentine arc pres
ent to a less extent On Indian creek
Is found possibly the only commercial
ly exploited deposit of jade on the
continent.
The "Klamath" ores , as before
noted , are chiefly base Iron , copper
and cinnabar. Copper predominates ,
every mile , so far as explored , show
ing surface Indications of It exten

slate or schist heavily stained with

The entire territory herein treated
of Is heavily timbered , making an in
exhaustible supply of timber conve

purposes The numerous torrential
streams render available water under

Within the territory described land
suitable for cultivation Is practically
unknown , except along the Klamath
river where a number of fine , largo
ranches are located , but just over the
Salmon mountains lies Scott \alley ,
a very fertile and productive section
whence subsistence supplies are

A Clean Man
Outiide cleanliness ii lest than halt the battle. A man may
scrub himself n dozen times day , and itiil be unclean. Good
health means cleanliness not only outside , but inside. It mean *
a clean stomach , clean bowels , clean blood , a clean liver , and
new , clean , healthy tissues. The man who is clean in this way
will look it and act it. He will work with energy and think
clean , clear , healthy thoughts.
He will never be troubled with liver , lung , stomach or blood
disorders. Dyspepsia and indigestion originate in unclean stem
achs. Blood diseases are found where there is unclean blood.
Consumption and bronchitis mean unclean lungs.
