CURRENT COMMENT.
A BRAVE SOLDIER, ALSO.
boston Transcript. ],

The news of the death of General
James A. Hall of Damariscotta, Me-.
will be received with much regret BY
thousands of people who had become ac-
quainted with him through, his political
addresses. He was a very effective
stump speaker, and did good work for
the Republican cause in many heated
campaigns. He was candid and fair in
his statement of the points at issue be-
tween the two parties, and had more of
a tendency towards personal independ-
ence than have most Maine Republicans.
His war record was very creditable
one.
A NEW VIEW OF THE BORDEN CASE.
Providence Journal
If the governments case against Miss
Borden is to break down, then the ques-
ton as to the identity of the murderer
will become more pressing one than
ever. Who, under such circumstances,
could have either the inclination or the
opportunity to commit such icrime?--
a double murder, and one of woman
against whom no outside enemy of Mr..
Borden could have any grudge whatever.
That is the most mysterious feature of
the case, especially if Miss Borden's in
nocence should be demonstrated, as it
hardly seems likely to be, absence Of
convincing proof being all that those
who have followed tie trial with pre-
sumption in her favor appear to expect.

A BANK FOR KASLO.
John M. Burke & Co., Will Open a
Private Bank on January l..

Evidently there is nothing too
good for Kaslo. We not only have
the biggest veins and richest ore, but
it Will be railroad centre as well,
and now it is a pleasure to say that
the annoyance of doing business
without a bank is olmst one of the
things which has been. Of all
things in this world which Kaslo
needed most it was without doubt a
bank and a good strong bank, with
large capital behind it-one which
will start off with the entire conf
dence of the community, and this
we have, for on the LIST of January,
1898, John Nj. Burke & Co. will
open a private bank here; ready to
do a general banking business.
Mr.. Burke is man well known to
most of our citizens. He was re-
Gently very prominent candidate
for Governor of the State Of Idaho;
has always been largely interested
in the biggest enterprises in that
state and his great experience in
mines and his unlimited means
makes him just the man for bank
er in Kaslo. John F. Piggott is
cashier of the new bank.-Kaslo

THE ROAD is IN OPERATION.
Stages and Steamers will connec
Tomorrow.

The snow road from Bonner's
Ferry to Kootenai Lake is now
open for traffic. The first stage
and steamer will make connections
at the head of Kootenai Lake to-
morrow.
The road has been held back
on account of the soft weather. 1t
is most unusual thing for this
country to lack for snow and ice in
January, but such has been the case
this winter. Just below town
there is a piece of road two miles
long entirely bare of snow. But
teams can bear along the sides and
make it through. The soft weather
has kept the river from freezing
sufficiently to make it safe crossing
with teams. This has compelled
Messrs. Cheney & Smith to put in
ferry boats at the crossings. This
is the cause Of the delay in opening
the road.
But now all obstacles are remov-
ed, and tomorrow definite arrange
ments will be made as to what days
stages will leave here, and when
connections can be made at the head
of the lake. This road will do an
immense amount of business during
the winter, and as spring approaches
it's usefulness will become more
apparent.

The Captain.


One Ia always glad to read something
from the pen of that sweet tempered
deep delving thinker, DR.. Edward Ever
EFT Hale. In The Cosmopolitan maya
zine he touches the one turning point of
success or failure in cooperative indus
try. He believes with all his might that
cooperation is the solution for labor
troubles; that through its magic spell
the lion and tiger of labor and capital
shall lie peacefully down together. But
how?
DR.. Hale explains. He says that New
England has been giving the world a
practical lesson in successful co-opera-
ton for the past 200 years. It is in her
whale, cod and mackerel fisheries. A
whaling vessel goes out to sea. The
voyage lasts from two to four years
When she returns the oil and bone are
sold and the proceeds divided among the
seamen. But the point to which Dr.
Hale invites especial attention is this: In
the division boat steerers get more than
common sailors and the captain and
mate more than any of the rest. No
sailor disputes the justice of the appor
tionment.
DR.. Hale says that in the beautiful pa
per schemes for cooperation the fact thu
to every successful enterprise there mu.,
be a captain is lost sight Of The average
man OF woman cannot plan great com
mercial or manufacturing scheme and
carry it to success. For this there must
be born leader. DR.. Hale says. THE
divine instinct for trade is as much an
instinct as is the instinct for music or
for manufacture" Without the born
captain Sr organizer, who can put their
products on the market and watch and
foretell its every turn. can working peo-
pie themselves engineer a giant under
taking successfully? You might as
well claim that directory chosen from
the privates Of the Austrian armies could
have beaten the great Napoleon"
So in putting together their little
means and starting an enterprise on the
cooperative plan DR.. Hale thinks the
first thing-the chief thing-for work
ing people to do is to choose their cap
tain and pay him price that win per
init him to give his time and best
thought to the success Of their plan. He
is worth it. Even when bloated pluto
Gratis carry on manufacturing estab-
hshment they have always such cap
tain of industry. and cooperative work
ers can never get on without him

The worlds Catholic Congress.

Among the many congresses 10 meet
during the Worlds fair call has been
issued for the assembling of an interna-
tional congress of the Catholic church
The congress will begin its sessions Sept
A, 1898
Since the New World was discovered
by devout followers Of the church the
first part of the sessions will naturally be
occupied with doing honor in IA suitable
manner to the memory Of Columbus end
of Ferdinand and Isabella. But the
meeting win be much more than cele-
bration on commemoration. The call
that has been issued says distinctly that
the congress must be prepared to propose
practical reforms in industrial and social
matters. Full freedom Of discussion is
to be permitted and invited in these
subjects

The Weather.

The weather for the past week
has been something remarkable to
those who are spending their first
winter in this northern cline. Since
the 1st of January the weather has
been so warm that the snow has
melted away till the ground is bare
in places, and many thought that
the ice was going to break up in the
river and navigation open again.
The river is all open from here up
to Jennings, but below there is less
current, and so it is yet coated with
ice. The coolest we have had is 6
degrees below zero. Localities a
thousand miles south of this have
seen colder weather this winter.
This is only an average winter In
the Kootenai country Last win
ter the thermometer did not regis
ter so cold as it has this winter.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1893-01-07

The congress in its suggested pro
gramme treats such topics as any assem-
bly, interested in the social and industrial
advancement Of mankind would deal
with. Among them are questions which
lie close to the heart of Pope Leo-such as
pauperism and its remedy, labor and
capital, workingmen's organizations. inn
migration and colonization. intemper-
ance. Even the woman question is to
be wrestled with.

KasIo Notes.

From the KaSlo- Examiner we
CLEAN the following facts:
The Freddy Lee mine is placing
ten carload of ore on the wharf dali
ly. 1000 sacks are now piled up at
the mine. The ore averages $50 OF.
silver and Y per cent lead, and is
getting better as the tunnels adj
vance on the ledge.
John M. Burke has bonded the
Chambers group Of mines. There
are four mines in this group, and
they are considered the biggest prop
ositions in SLOGAN. There are seven
partners in the deal, one Of whom
is Charlie Chambers.
John B. Wilson has bonded two
thirds Of the Lucy Jane and one
half Of the Princess in the Lardo
district for $4,000
The Carbonate Mine was recent
ly bonded by Gay Reader and
d. Z. Crafts to w. f. Kennedy,
H. / Wilson and e. B. Hyde, Of
Spokane, for the sum Of $4,000,
$1,000 cash, The carbonate is stu
ated near the head Of Spring Greek
and is developed by % foot cross
cut exposing a large vein which car
ries IL inches of clean galena. The
vein has been exposed at irregular
intervals for nearly 1900 feet. 1t
is on the same lode as the Blue Bird,
Jackson and Fourth of July. AS
says run from Is to 200 ounces in
silver per ton and one assay run as
high as 800 ounces.
Tuesday viii F. Kenneday bond
ed the Fremont mine, or at least
two-thirds Of it, being the entire in
terest Of w. II. Lynch; considera-
ton being $4,000 OF at the rate Of
$4,000 for the whole proposition.
The other one-third is owned by
Mahon Bros. Of Victoria. The
ledge has been stripped for 200
feet and shows clear galena A to s
inches. Several assays have been
made, the lowest being 240 onnces
and the highest nearly 2000 ounces
Of silver.
Notwithstanding the season is far
advanced mining men are still Sc
curing options on good propositions;
in TACT from the number of claims
bonded within a week, it would
seem that all who can are getting in
without delay. J. M. Harris and
Volney Williams were lucky
enough to secure the Climax and
Lancaster claims which adjoin
what is knwn as the Grady group,
five miles east Of New Denver.
these claims show three feet Of sol
id galena and the grade is similar
to that found in Grady's claims.
The consideration Of this bond was
$4,000.

GROUSE MOUNTAIN JUMPED
Wholesale Jumping of Mining Claims
Reported.

w e learn THAT Gn6fe Is SERIOUS
trouble on Grouse Mountain over
mining properties. This district is
about +hirty-five miles east Of here
and lies back from the town of Troy.
A party was made up at Troy
which went out to the mines on the
31st and shortly after midnight re-
located a number of the principal
claims.
The grounds upon which the
claims are jumped are that the own
ers had not done the necessary 800
worth of assessment work.
The following are some of the
claims jumped:
The Great Northwest, owned by
Eaton & Rosegrant, Baines Bros,
J. J. Brant and others, valued at
$4,000.
The Hiawatha, owned by Ben
Morrow and others, valued at
$4,000.
The Spokane, owned by Wilson,
of Spokane, and others.
The Sunrise, owned by Morrow,
Eaton q Rosegrant.
The Badger, owned by Eaton &
Rosegrant, Ainsworth, Of Spokane,
VIM. Keller and Jerry Watson.
All the above are valuable claims.
The Iron Cap, owned by William
Keller was not jumped, as was the
case with several others where the
assessment work had been done
without question.
On all the mines jumped some
assessment work has been done, but
the jumpers claim that they can
prove that there has not been a
hundred dollars worth of work
done. OF course the original ownrs
will claim that they have done the
necessary amount Of work and the
question will be adjudlcated in the
courts at an expense that would
have made substantial improve
ments on the claims.
While the HERALD must disap-
prove Of this system Of mining rob
berry, it must nevertheless condemn
the practice Of letting promising
properties lie idle, owners doing on
ly their assessment work, and ques-
tionably that. We presume that
they have a right to do as they
please with a claim, but they ought
to be compelled to do their assess
ment work strictly up to require
ments at least. Were this the rule,
claim owners would do enough work
over 800 worth, to admit of no
question as to their having comph-
ed with the law.
The names of the parties who
did the relocating we were not able
to learn.
The owners of the Great North
west, most of whom live in Bonner's
Ferry, laugh at the idea Of the
claim being jumpable. They do
not seem to think they are in dan
ger Of losing the property.
