ming and the able management of Super.
intendent Risque:
The Bi-Metallic are making arrange
ments to ship some of the base ore that
is not suitable for milling and will build
a sampling floor at the terminus of the
tramway for the purpose of accommo-
dating that class of ore. After sampling
1t will be sold to the highest bidder.
The company don't wish to publish
their output at present as they are mill
ing low-grade ore. But when they in
crease their capacity to one hundred
stamps and get to running on high-grade
ore they will publish returns that will
give the Granite people the headache.

The Granite company have adopted a
much-needed change in the workings of
their mine. They now work their men
six days IN the week, getting out enough
ore in that time to run the seventh. This
gives the men Sunday rest. This re-
minds us of the story of the tenderfoot
from the east who applied for work at
ono OF the Butte mines. He asked if the
miners worked night and day. The fore
man replied that they did. "Well,"
sighed tho fellow, Il can stand it if the
rest OF them can, but I would like one
night out of the week to Sleep"

SAN FRANCISCO.

IL. NJ. Kenneth. sharp-looking, keel
business man, secretary of the San Fran
cisco Con. mining company, is in Philips
burg looking after the interests of tn
property he represents. As there is som
m1sapprehension as to the object OF hi
visit. he has decided to allow the publ
cation of his views. He stands on TIM
broad platform:
F1rst-The company have full con
fidence in Superintendent Smith.
Second-The condition of the mine i!
exactly as stated in Superintendent
Smiths reports to the company.
Third-The mlne will not close down
or be sold for debt.
Fourth-Some system for treating Sar
Francisco ores will be erected this
season.
After Mr.. Kennett left St. Louis the
papers published all manner of rumors
as to the condition of the company and
the reason of his departure. The chief
story was, that at meeting of the board
OF directors reflections had been made on
the integrity Of Superintendent Smith
and that it was decided that Secretary
Kenneth should slip quietly out to Mon
tana, size things up generally and ascer-
tain it Smiths reports as to the condition
OF the mine were true. These stories
were utterly without foundation and
were started by irresponsible brokers and
given circulation by reckless reporters
The company always have had, and have
now, full and absolute confidence in
Superintendent Smith. His reports to
the company on the mines condition
have been on the side of conservatism
The mine to-day has brighter outlook
than he ever reported to the company.
Concerningthe company s fnancialcon-
dition, Mr.. Kennett states that several
rather than sacrifice the treasury stock,
advanced enough to continue working
the mine, taking the treasury stock as
security. The payment of the debt when
due will not be forced, but on the con-
trary such money will be advanced as is
necessary for development and the erec-
tion of some kind of works for the treat
ment OF It's ores, the nature of which has
not been decided upon. The company
have deep faith in the merits of the San
Francisco mine and are endeavoring in a
legitimate manner to make it profitable
The small stockholders can
rest assured that the company is guard
ing their interests honorably and even
The management at St.
Louis have refrained from manipulating
the stock, preferring to let it rise or fall
on it's merits.
The people of this. community will be
much pleased with the frank statements
of Mr.. Kennett. They have an abiding
faith in President Plante and Secretary
Kenneth, and are confident that the mine
under their management will receive the
best development, and moreover that the
interests of the small stockholders will
be fully protected.
