FOREST RUTHERFORD, Superintendent of the Reduction Works of the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company, was
born in Montreal, Canada, March 24, 1871. His parents are William and Elizabeth Jackson Rutherford. Mr. Rutherford
was educated in the public schools and later graduated from McGill University, Montreal, as Mining Engineer, in
1896. For two years subsequent to this he was employed by the Pueblo Smelting and Refining Company, of Pueblo,
Colorado, when he went to Monterey, Mexico, in the employ of the Guggenheim interests, where he remained but one
year, having been appointed at that time Chief Chemist, and six months afterwards Assistant Superintendent of their
plant at Aguas Calientes, Mexico. This position he retained until 1903, when he entered the employ of the Copper
Queen Consolidated Mining Company as Assistant Superintendent of Reduction Works. Here the valuable experience
he had acquired in previous positions was used to so great an advantage and his unvarying application to the affairs
of the Company gave him so complete a mastery of detail that his years of service as Assistant Superintendent met
with the sincere approval of his employers. On July 1, 1912, he was promoted to the position of Superintendent,
a most substantial testimonial of appreciation of his efforts. Mr. Rutherford is one of the best known citizens
of Douglas, a man who is willing to perform his share in the affairs of his community, and a member of the Masonic
order.
