YAHK NUGGETS.

SYLVANITE, Dec. 1.-The Gold
Flint management has decided to
run a tunnel 400 feet in length
that will tap the lead at a depth of
$50 feet. The character of the ore
in the shaft already sunk more that
justifies the contemplated develop
ment work.
There is no doubt among those
competent to judge that refractory
ore predominates in the camp.
This confirms the rumors that
concentrating plant will be erected
early in the spring. In fact con-
centrator site has already been
located.
The Keystone changed manage
ment today, Mr.. JAS Cronin sue
ceeding Mr.. H. J. Jory in charge of
the mine, and Mr.. McCurdy takes
charge of the mill, all of which will
be eminently satisfactory to the
camp.
County Surveyor Jaquith of Flat
head County has made an official
survey of the Gold Flint and of the
Evergreen placer claim, and these
properties will no doubt be patented
shortly.
Development work is being push-.
ed on the Eberhard, the Kootenai
and Kokonee, the Good Hope and
Blue Bell. Flattering offers are
daily being received for properties
here, especially is this the case since
the sale of one half interest in the
Jim Hip by the Lemley Bros.
and others for $4,000.
Weather here is cold with roads
in fair condition.
People here often wonder what
interest Kootenai Co. can have in
the camp, and in absence of any
manifestation of interest by the
people of Idaho, the camp is fast
drifting to the Montana side of the
line. This in view of the recent vote,
which gave to the Kootenai county
candidates such a hattering ma
jority of the votes in camp, seems
hardly complimentary to us, and
while we may be slow to wrath, we
are impartial in judgement.
Mr.. T. J. Patterson has again
been offended by having a commits
sion for Justice of the Peace for
Boulder Precinct forced upon him,
and declares that if Fred T. Dubois
is not returned to the senate, he
: would rather be a "Yaller dog" in
Montana than a mineral land com
s missioner in Idaho.

SYLVANITE REPORTS
Bright Outlook in all he Camps Ada
cent to Bonner's berry. Every in
dication of the dawn of a more
Prosperous Era.

A party of Great Northern rail
way engineers arrived in town last
Tuesday, and, on Wednesday, left
for the Boundary Line. They were
communicative, as railway engin-
GERS always are, but their presence
here at this time may be surmised
as having something to do with the
Kootenai valley branch of the
Great Northern, which has been in
contemplation for some time and
which rumor has il is to be an ac-
complished fact before another
year.
1t is known that the Great
Northern desires direct communi-
cation, all the year around, with
Kootenai Lake and the SLOGAN, to
secure the great tonnage of the
mines. By building branch of
less than 80 miles from the main
line at Bonner's Ferry to the Lake,
they could have tn tonnage. 1t
is now the talk in Galway circles
that the management of the road
intend to push this branch through
at once, and will build large trans
fer boats to transfer their cars
across the lake and river to all
points. Even Rossland can be
reached in this way with the G. p
r. by the building Of a few miles Of
road. 1t is thought that the Crow;
Nest Pass road, \ G. P. r. venture
will build through to Goat River
eventually, and then up to the
Line, and the two roads be operated
together in the Kootenai country.
The proposed bronch will leave
the main line at Bonner's Ferry
as the river and Valley is more ia
vorable for crossing here than either
above or below for several miles
1t will then ascend to the bench
on the north side and will follow
that almost level plain to the Lake
striking the Boundary Line at, o
within two or three miles of, Ock
onOok.
Should the road be built, it viii
make great changes in the countr,
and will make times good in tn
valley next season

that the fight would be carried
on against the nomination of Mr..

had been made by Mr.. Reeds
manager that the Ohio man
would be nominated on the first
ballot.
General Henderson and Gen

for Senator Allison, arrived to-
night and expressed surprise
that Mr.. Manley had given uI
the fight. There was a ramol
that Mr.. Platt's arrival had stiff.
