FROM SILVER CREEK,
A District Wonderfully Rich in Mtners
Deposits.

A District Wonderfully Rich in Mineral
Deposits.
There are few districts that have a more
promising outlook than Silver creek, six
miles from Saltese, Montana. Although
this discoveries are comparatively late, the
little development work has revaaled strong
lodges carrying silver enc copper. Angus
Sutherland came over from there Thurs
day, having been working on the st. Law
renee claim, in which he ID interested, dur
ing the pas. few months. He reports his
property looking we'll. The lower tunnel,
in which the work is now being done, is in
about sixty-tivs feet. Depth is gained
slowly, however. and at present the face of
the unnel is only about thirty feet below
the surface. Orc has beon followed all the
way, and gt the time MIR. Sutherland came
over the pay streak wac about u foot in
width. The snow at the st. Lawrence
claim is about twelve feet deep.-Cuul

il from the sleeping mans pocket. Judge

GROUSE MOUNTAIN MINES.

A Section of Montana Which Promises to
BE y Rich Producer.
7. II. Hughes, of Lake City, Mont, talks
as follows about the Grouse mountain min
eral country in Missoula county: ''The
camp wss first discovered by Mr.. Keller
about three years and q half ago. Two
claims were then staked cut, the Blowout
and Kootenai Chief, but only assessment
work was done on them at that time. as
there was then no prospect of a railroad
anywhere near them.
'About the same time Mr.. Iougee discov-
cred and located the Twin Load and an
other claim on a parallel ledge. On these
two lodges. which apparently run right
through the mountain, something like
thirty locations have been made in all.
TIL first wear he only did assessment work,
too, but in tho second summer he ran a
tunnel in on the lead to strike the mineral
chute. After getting in $50 feet he stopped,
and this winter ho and his partner are
again at work on it. They expect to tap
the ore chute in forty or fifty feet. When
/ last saw the mine 1t looked very good.
The ledge was widening and measured
about eight feet across, showing fine galena
ore all thu way. The assays from this ore
average about twenty-five ounces in silver
and from thirty-hye to forty per cent. in
lead.
about eighteen months ago three pros
pectors, named Porter, Arbo and Kingston,
made Tome nine more locations on Grouse
mountain in the same vicinity, and pretty
near the same time l located the Spokane.
About a year ago l organized the Callahan
Creek Mining company, and from the pro-
ceeds of the sale of u part of the stock ]
have just finished sinking g shaft on the
vein fifty feet in depth. The ore, which ia
galena, shows we'll all the way down, and
particularly 80 near tho bottom of the
shaft. The vein is about four feet in width
and the ore. which We have had assayed
from time to time as we vent down, runs
from twenty-five to thirty ounces in silver
and FROM 40 to so per cent. III lead.
about 4 month after / located the Spo.
kane, Hough, Keller, Lougee and other,
located nine more claims, some of nhicl
have since boon developed and show fin,
bodies of ore. Last Summer some fourteen
more were located, the last of all b,ing TIN
Diamond Hitch. The last is worthy O
mention because it shows up we'll on tn
surface. and carries about 10 per cent. il
copper. The few assays made from this or
show about thirty ounces III silver.

The singing reply Of Representative
Watson to certain innuendoes and in
direct charges Of bribery by Washing
ton correspondent deserves mere than
passing notice. Mr. Watson got the ear
of congress because the correspondent
referred to is also the speakers clerk.
and virtually an officer of the house.
This journalistic clerk accused Mr..
Watson, in heading southern paper Of
voting with the Republicans in a con-
tested election case because he expected
financial assistance from that party in
his next race for congress. The Alliance
congressman not only Indignantly repels
the charge. but accuses the speakers
clerk Of Systematically heaping con-
tumely. allied to falsehooA. upon his
record This. Mr.. Watson declares, is
simply because he is one of 1.-The despisel
lepers who are known as third party
ni-n.'
1t is possible that Mr.. Watson's justi-
fable indignation may have led him to
overstate his case But it cannot be
doubted that the Intentional Sights put
upon third party men in this congress
are far from imaginary grievances 1t
is bad enough to be hnmbled by virtual
Ostracism without having to combat
cowardly attacks upon ones character.
