The Alturas County Board of
Equalization found but little to do

THE Alturas County Board of
Equalization found but little to do
at their late meeting. The assess
ment of the HALEY iron works were
reduced $3.50. The assessment of
Mrs. A. A. Stoves property for $500
was stricken from the roll, under
the provision of law exempting the
property of widow women to the
amount of $1,000 from taxation.
No mortgages having been assessed
the Board ordered that all mortga-.
ges not exempt be placed on the
assessment roll, and that the hold
ers of the same be required to APP
pear before the October term of the
Board of Equalization and show
cause why they should not be as
sessed. This action is not to be
taken as a reflection upon the Off
cial work of Assessor Peed, but to
settle the question of what mort
cages, if any, are taxable, and what
exempt under our laws. The opin-
ion is widespread among mortgage
holders that their mortgages should
not be taxed, and in some states
they have succeeded in securing
exemption for this species of prop
erty. Others think this an injustice
to the taxpaying public, and claim
that since mortgages are productive
property they should bear their
share of the burdens of government.
We belong to the latter class. In
our opinion all productive property
should he taxed alike, and we hope
it is and will continue to be SO in
Idaho.

Taxation Of Mines.

The Nampa Leader had an excel.
lent article on this subject last
week; and as the KEYSTONE put
itself on record on the subject last
winter We would be glad now to
hear from some of our mining men.
Having both experience and inter-
ests in mining they must have opin-
ions concerning a matter that so
directly appeals to their pecuniary
interest ard to their duty as citi-
zens. That many of them are able
to give their opinions intelligent
expression we know, and we hereby
tender to them the use of our col
umns for that purpose and invite
them to the discussion. Articles on
both sides of the question will be
freely and cheerfully admitted and
the matter is sure to come before
the next legislature, and the mines
certain to be taxed if good and suf-
ticient reasons for their exemption
cannot be given. Idaho is the only
state in the Union that exempts her
mines; and it is a fact that under
our laws alien mine owners can
and do hold mines here, enjoy the
profits derived which they ship out
of the country; have, also, the pro-
lection of our laws just as fully as
the citizen owner, and yet pay no
taxes. 1t is also true that even the
least favored agricultural county in
the state pays more taxes in pro-
portion to population, and is less
burdened by debts than the mining
counties, while the property of the
agricultural sections is invariably
assessed at lower rate than pre-
walls in the mining sections. Win
not some of our miners give us the
benefit of their views on this ques-
ton?

THE Nampa Leader is having a
time of it, trying to keep its breth-
rem at Boise City in the straight
aud narrow PATH" but it works at
it energetically and is evidently in
dead earnest, and we hope it will
succeed, eventually. This week it
ventilates probable piece ofcrook-
edness on the part of one Major
Camp who, it is possible, according
to the Lander's article, has de-
camped. Before leaving Boise,
which he did ostensibly to attend
the G. A. r. Encampment at De-
troit, Michigan, Major Camp re.
ceived a warrant for clerk hire. and
also made out his account for the
month of August. These he per-
suaded lady who belonged to the
same church he did to buy. Before
doing SO, however, she called upon
f. J. Curtis and State Auditor
Moody, both of whom informed
her that the accounts we're all right
and would be paid in regular course
of business about September lst.
September 1st came and they were
presented for payment, but rejected
by Major Pinkham. Other friends
the Leader says have been left to
mourn the absence Of the Major.
and as that gentleman has not re-
turned their grief may be continued
indefinitely.

Beautiful HALEY,

We took run down to HALEY
this week, to break the monotonous
routine OF Office life in Ketchum.
Haying is still in progress along the
road, and alfalfa fields are still green
and luxuriant-looking as in mid
summer. Green trees, gardens and
flowers, still attract the observation
and admiration Of the visitor to
HALEY, Notwithstanding a few of
the leaves are taking on that de-
lightful lemon tinge peculiar to
early autumn. Business at Haley
is not active, yet there is very little
complaint of dull times, and bust
ness men are generally agreed that
there is more money in circulation
in the town than during the sum-
mer months, and that all kinds OF
business is improving, and our OBJ
servation confirmed this judgment.
Every house in the is occupied
and bringing fair rentals, and more
would be ii they could be had, as
families who have been employed
in remote mining camps, not read
lily accessible in winter time, are
beginning to seek winter quarters,
and they naturally turn towards the
towns, of which none other in AL
turas county presents so many at
fractions as HALEY. 1t would be
good policy for the town, and
should be a paying one, to have u
few houses on hands to rent for the
accommodation of people who may
desire to become temporary resi-
dents of the place, as some of the
people SO brought in will be always
sure to find it to their advantage to
remain permanently.
While at Haley We had the pleas
ure of meeting Auditor Garrett,
George and Ed Richards, Mr.. and
Mrs. Dick West, Henry Plughoff,
Frank Peed, Clerk of the District
Court Johns, George Warren, Sam
Friend and other old and new &C
quaintances, making our visit
very pleasant one indeed.
Mr.. Plughoff continues in the
saddlery business and carries re-
markably fine and full stock of
goods comprising everything in his
line, and in much greater profusion
than an outsider would suppose
necessary to meet the demands OF
this market.
The California restaurant under
the management of Mr.. Dick West
is gaining in public favor and pop
ularity, as is shown by its constant
ly growing business, and its genial
proprietor is contented and hopeful
of the still better future which the
town is sure to enjoy.

A Rich Camp.

In May last Mr. Dennis Kallahar
visited region on South Salmon
river that had not before been ex-
plored by prospectors. The locality
abounds in gravel deposits that
make prospecting for quartz lodges
difficult, and in places quite impos-
slble; but in spite Of this peculiarly
Mr.. Kallahar made discoveries that
promise to excel in richness and
value anything before found in the
state. Coming upon place where
the bedrock was exposed above the
gravel, he espied a vein of quartz
cropping above the debris overly
ing the exposed bedrock. This he
at once investigated, and to his
great joy found it highly impreg-
mated with silver. Further observa-
ton disclosed the presence in tho
locality of three separate veins of
quartz, each carrying a good supply
of the coveted metal. Making a
location upon each of his finds,
Mr.. Kallahar provided himself with
samples of the ore and returning to
town had them assayed. The re-
suits exceeding his expectations he
Immediately returned to the scene
and proceeded with his prospecting.
After about months work, during
which he stripped the dirt from the
top of one of his lodges for $50 feet
in length, finding from 4 to 10 in
ches of clean, high-grade ore the
whole length Of the cut. He also
run tunnel, cutting into the ledge
lengthwise for 20 feet in better look
ing ore all the way than that on the
top of the ledge. The ore is of the
carbonate variety, and is apparently
free from any base metals or min
erals, containing neither lead, iron,
copper, zinc, arsenic nor anthony.
1t is simply an admixture of silver
and quartz, the silver being unusu-
ally plentiful. A piece of rock as
large as a common black walnut.
thrown into a camp fire, came out
beaded all over with silver, the ell
yer being fully 20 per cent of the
whole. Assays made from the sur
face Immediately after the discovery
was made, returned from 4SO to $50
ounces; but samples brought in
this week will 20 much higher, and
we predict will reach an average of
over 5000 ounces to the ton.
Mr.. Kallahar is naturally very
much elated over his excellent pros
poets, and will build cabin and
take supplies into the camp yet this
fall in order to be ready to COM
mence work at as early day as
possible in the spring.
The new find is situated 30 miles
from the upper end of Long valley
and 40 miles south of Warrens.
Eleven other locations have been
made there by other parties since
Mr.. Kallahar's discovery, and all
have fair prospects; and the chan
ces are that the find will prove to be
the most important yet made in the
state. The big prospects obtained
certainly encourage such hope.
But no work will be done there this
winter on account of the isolation
Of the place. We congratulate Mr..
Kallahar upon his good fortune,
and hope it will prove the bonanza
its richness implies.
