BRIGHTER.
Plenty Of Silver Waiting for the Miner
Just North Of Spokane Falls.

characterized the break for the Cpur
dAlene region in the midst Of last
winter, but a cool, calculating move
ment that has every appearance of
business. There is also a different
class of men interested In the new
field of mineral wealth that promises
to surpass in extent of territory and
value of product the best silver leads
ever worked in this country. The
placer diggings Of northern Idaho
drew men Of every stamp, and the
impecunious adventurer was largely
in the majority. The new mines are

Smith, Squier and others. 1t is To-
Gated some eight miles from Chewe-
lah, and has been worked for up
ward of a year. These gentleman
have spent several thousand dollars
on the claim, and every tunnel opened
has exposed vast quantities Of ore.
They have followed a very cheap
plan so far In working the ground,
showing disposition to curtaiI eX-
penses to that degree that has really
proven a loss to themselves, and a
detriment to the full development of
the mine. However the cheap plan
was the best. They commenced on
the ground what they at first be-
