Millionaire Stratton’s Rise From Colorado Prospector to Riches
Stratton built a vast fortune from the Independence mine at Cripple Creek after early prospector days in Colorado camps. He staked the Independence in 1891, yielding original assays of 380 dollars per ton. He leased the Washington claim for 80 thousand dollars in 1892, sold Independence in 1898 for ten million, and retained a large interest. Wealth ranged from 15 to 50 million, with notable philanthropy and ownership of Colorado Springs street railway system. He died in Colorado Springs at 54. Southern and Eastern Oregon face supply law inadequacy as coyotes threaten ranchers and sheep-raisers struggle with rising losses.
