THE POORMAN.
Regular Monthly Dividends Will Hereafter
be Paid, Says President Clark.

Regular Monthly Dividends viii Hereafter
he Paid, Says President Clark.
J. X. Clark. president of the C@ur
d'Alene Mining company, has just returned
from a visit to the Poorman mine in Idaho,
and reports that he found it in good condi-
ton. The drifts on the 500-foot level are
now being started, and in Mr.. Clark's opin-
ion the mine never looked SO we'll at any
point Of its development as it does on this
level. In speaking on the subject, Mr.
Clark said to q reporter Of the Butte Miner:
1--WE are now running the mill from the
40O-foot level, producing about 200 tons of
crude ore per day, which makes from forty
to forty-two tons of concentrates per day,
from which we get over $40 per ton at the
present prices. judging the mine from its
past record we have from fifteen to eight
cen months ore in sight without doing any
sinking or development work.
"We have all virgin ground from the 300
to the 400 and about two-thirds of the
ground from the 400 to the 300 is still vir-
gin. The 30O-foot level is a abort level,
only eighty-three feet long, but it will take
about five months to work it out. Besides
this we have a good block OF ground on the
100 tina we cannot take out at present on
account of the water in the bed of the
creek. There is a great deal OF ore in the
old levels tnat Will pay TO WorR OUT IN tne
future.
1--WE are running at a great disadvantage
now on power. We are burning about GOO
cords of wood per month, costing $3.50 per
cord. We expect to do away with this AS
soon as we get our electric plant completed,
the machinery of which is very slow in ar
irving. l do not expect we will have it
running until some time in August. The
Edison company will furnish everything
except the penstock and wheel, which are
contracted for in San Francisco.
I'VE will have the fume completely fin
ished by July l. Our fume is two miles
long and gives 800 feet vertical fall, with
$50 inches of water at the lowest stage,
which is only about three or four months in
the year. We have ordered a pump from
Fraser d Chalmers. made for electric at
tachment, with a capacity of 500 gallons per
minute. We have over 200 gallons a,
present. but we must be prepared for the
worst that might come. This pump weighs
$4,000 pounds and will cost $1,000 at
Chicago.
1--WE will now commence on a two-ceat
dividend, which we think we can keep up
monthly, and make our payments on the
electric plant for the next six months,
which will amount to a total of about
$50, 1900. AS soon as that is paid up we hope
to increase our dividends, providing lead
and silver will hold up to present prices"

THE ANACONDA SALE.

Report That a Belmont Representative Is
Closing The Deal.
Word was received from Butte yesterday
that a representative of the New York bank
ing firm of A. Belmont d Co. had been
instructed to close up some details
in the sale of the Anaconda mines
and works to an English syndicate. 1t was
also reported in this connection that S., OOO,-
600 on the sale had been paid q month or
two ago, and the purchasers had until Jan.
l, 1892, to complete the deal. The price to
be paid for the property was $50. 900, 900.
Belmont q Co. are the American represent
atives CT the Rothschilds. the latter making
the purchase for the English syndicate.
The rumor OF the sale has been industri-
ously circulated for several months, and
the present visit of Nh. DAILY to the east,
and other occurrences give good ground for
the belief that there is a great deal more in
it than idle talk.

THE FOURTH OF JULY.

Shipment of Rich Ore-P-ogress of Work
of Development.
Reports from the Fourth of July mine, in
the Okanogan country, are to the effect
that some very rich ore recently taken out
has been shipped to the Tacoma smelter.
Assays from four samples run from SO to
458 ounces of silver to the ton. The ore
shipped to Tacoma, it is believed, will run
over 400 ounces. The 200-foot level is on
good ore almost the entire distance. 1t is
thought the rich ore chute will be struck in
a few days on this level. The vein is said
to be dipping south, and this may neoessi-
tats more work to get it than was counted
on, but it will only be q question of a few
more days.

The following resolutions were passed
by the Executive Committee at the
late meeting. This is action which
we have long desired to see taken, and
believe that the farmers are a gener-
GUS and long-suffering race to have let
the matter rest so long:
"Resolved, That in the Judgment OF
this executive committee, the commit
tee of five members appointed by the
state alliance at the last annual meet
ing to investigate the affairs OF the
state agricultural college and its rela-
lions to the state university, should
continue to pursue their work of in
vestigation and should act in conjunc-
ton with any committee on the part
of the legislature appointed to make a
similar investigation.
"Resolved, That it is the sense of the
executive committee that commit
tee should be appointed by the house
or senate to investigate the relations
of the state agricultural college to the
state university, and especially to in
quire how far the funds belonging to
the former institution have been alb
sorbed by the state university"

The daily papers are making great
fuss about Miss Eva's warfare against
Mr. Donnelly, in which she evidently
hides behind her girlhood for defense.
The papers certainly dignity the very
offensive and childish assault of this
forward young woman. We do not
wish to enter upon any criticism
of a girl in whom we recently
took so much interest. The Executive
Committeeprefers to keep it from the
public, and but for Miss Eva's furnish
ing the material to the "Globe'' the
state would know nothing OF it. AS
Mr.. Donnelly is chairman Of the press
committee he has taken that "duty''
away from her after her suppression
of the Daily News boycott. and sim
gular falsehoods to the "G.obe."
AS to the thoroughly obnoxious
attitude the young lazy in her
plutocratic tactics day after day,
scandalizing the committee, we will
give no report. Time will develop
matters, and show the singular polit-
ical relations OF the lady knight in
their true light. We are sorry ever
to have to refer to the matter.
