Bi.Matallic Extension,

On this property the shaft is down s.
feet and vel timbered. Large quantities
of brick and lumber are being hauled up
to the mine for setting the boilers and
engine and the construction Of shaft
house. The gallows frame is also
being placed in position, and as soon as
the machinery is ready to run three eight
hour shifts will be put on and sinking
for the 500foot level will be actively
pushed. The company has ample cap
ital the most of which was raised in Phil
ipsburg and Granite and is adding to the
business and prosperity of the camp.
With the development fund the company
has ON hand, and the careful manage
ment which is guaranteed by the charac
ter of the men in charge of the company's
affairs, it is certainty that their ground
will be thoroughly prospected and devel-
oped. 1t is the opinion of some mining
men that the main vein will be encoun-
tered in the shaft when dep h of $50
feet is reached, but this depends alto
gether upon it's dip at this point. The
pitch to the south. Its dip varies, how
before reaching the 500-foot level or it
will be necessary to crosscut to it, re-
mains to be determined by development.
The Elizabeth vein, which passes through
the company's property On the south side
of the shaft, will certainly have to be
reached by crosscut. The miners and
mining men of the district have implicit
faith in this enterprise, as was evidenced
by the readiness with which they all
for the block of stock orig
inally placed on the market.

The Alps.

J. c. Wood, manager of the Alps mine,
departed last Saturday moraing for
Glenada, Oregon, where he intends
spending the winter. Mr.. Wood says
that owing to the excess of water ia the
main shaft in the Alps they were run
out at depth Of 123 feet, and at that
depth four foot body of ore was ex-
posed. From three assays recently made
he following returns were given: sample
No. l, 1923; Ne 2, $27; No. 3, s172, in gold.
Prior to leaving On his vacation, Mr..
Wood let contract to Phillip Murray
to continue the tunnel on the ledge a
distance of 225 feet, where it will tap the

will consume the time of two or three
months, and when Mr.. Wood returns in
tho spring all will be in readiness for
active development again. At the stock

Sentiment ON the Bay - - Tide
Lands.
WHArcox, Jan. T.--The tide lands COM
mittee visited the bay cities today and
took the testimony OF many citizens. The
almost universal expression was to sell
the tide lands Immediately TO the highest
bidders in small quantities. granting spe-
ciai privilege only to those who have actual
and substantial wharves or improvements
on tide lands. Much interest was taken
by the people in the matter. The senti-
ment was very strong against granting to
shore line or riparian owners, or those
claiming tide fats under them, any special
or exclusive privileges to purchase. The
sentiment prevails that tide lands should
also be appraised at full market value.
