Several months ago the owners Of this
property intimated to US that when they
had more thoroughly opened up the mine
and secured the title deeds they would
offer us the appointment of brokers for
the sale Of the treasury stock. TO be put
aside TO realize funds for the erection Of a
mill and making other improvements for
the development and betterment of the
property. We then began investigating
the mine on our own account We have
had it examined by the most competent
authorities. and have reinforced these re-
ports with opinions of many dLsinterested
mining men in the SLOGAN country. who
have incidentally watched its develop
ment
The result has been surprising. Every
opinion agrees that the ore already blocked
out in the preliminary work will make the
MONTEZUAiaA dividend payer for many
years, and from the work now done it ~
impossible to estimate the amount not yet
uncovered. Prof. William ]. Tretheway,
who is pre-erinently the leading mining
engineer of Canada. after examining the
Mon;ezuma. says: This mine has proba-
bly, the largest ore chute in the SLOGAN
country, and affords every convenience for
economical mining
The company owns not only the Monte
Suma. but the Mexico. the Vera Cruz and
the Buena Vista, adjoining, and upon
which positively no work has yet been
done. all in the SLOGAN mining district.
British Columbia.
The development consists OF more than
COZ feet Of tunnels. crosscuts and shafts.
No. l tunnel has been driven a distance
of lis feet, following the foot wall of the
vein. disclosing a body Of ore the entire
distance. averaging six feet In width. On
the same level another tunnel has <>beer.
driven 40 feet. following the hanging wall.
disclosing q body OF high grade carhonates
as well as concentrating ore. At distance

wall This entire distance OF - feet Is all
in ore. No. tunnel Is connected with No.
tunnel. 30 feet beneath. by a shaft, sunk
the entire 50 feet through ore. The vein
In No tunnel has been developed along
its course a distance OF 100 feet. showing
the ore chute to be an average Of 10 feet
In width the entire distance. This level is
being extended daily with gratifying re-
suits The development shows over 1000
tons of concentrating ore. averaging Is
per cent. lead and IS ounces silver. This
will concentrate about ~. tons into !. CIV
ing 2,6o0 tons OF concentrates which will
average 81 per cent. lead and rs ounces sill
yer. an aggregate Of 900 pounds of lead
and $4,000 ounces OF silver. worth SIS ton,
a total OF $4,000.
The shaft is being sunk. still all in ore, to
a third tunnel now being driven nearly 800
feet beneath the second tunnel. This 1t is
believed will treble the present visible sup
ply Of ore and treble the value Of the mine.
The Montezuma In past the experimental
stage It has one OF the largest ore bodies
yet brought TO light. 1t Is already great
mine and will begin to pay dividends as
soon as the concentrator Is ready to ham
die the ore.
Its present development guarantees this
and how much greater a mine II will be
only the future can determine.

o OF the county commissioner

Two OF the county commissioner
Nessrs. Ryan and Nickersoz. returned
yesterday from a visit TO the country
beyond South Park Their trip was al
tended with a degree OF secrecy that has
OF late attached more or less TO all the
ssoings OF the board OF county commits
sioners. but IL was learned yesterday fore
noon from unimpeachable authority that
they went out TO make personal exam
ina,ion OF a gravel pit for which they
have been negotiating with view TO us
ing the output in the construction OF
county roads. In fact. this Is Commits
gfoner Nlckerson's second visit to the
same locality with the same object in
view.
Negotiations have progressed so far that
the commissioners have already had eev-
erai small shafts sunk in the new pit
with a view of making practical test OF
the gravel. and these tests have been OF
a satisfactory nature. provided the pit
ca-i be secured for a moderate price. The
gravel is on the Burns property. and II .

reasonable In his terms, as he is public

locality for the object OF their search.
Even a tyro in road construction will
understand the Importance to the coun-
ty OF owning a prolific and accessible
bed OF gravel. At present the only APP
proach to such a treasure is little
pocket OF gravel in the side Of the bluff
along the Grant street line. 1t Is not
very rich. and the gravel has entirely too
much sand mixed with II TO be valuable.
In fact, 1t can be used only after severe
screening process. Besides. the place Is
somewhat inaccessible. A wagon haul
ing TO ordinary points has been able to
bring out only about three loads day,
and as a man and team cost the county
S.g5 per day. the gravel from this place
has cost from IS cents to 81 per cubic
yard.
II the prospective pit can be secured at
reasonable price. all this will be
changed. There will be plenty OF gravel
In place that can be easily reached by
teams II is OF good quality. and the cost
OF getting 1t out will be enough lower
to enable the county to do great deal
more than heretofore in the direction OF
furnishing TO the farmers and public gen
orally good and durable roadbeds.

Louch. Augustine & Co will have TO give
up the goods in the Hodgson store, foot
of Marion street, attached by them last
month, Judge Moore having decided that
there was bona fide assignment made by
T. + Hodgson to George +. kienstra on
April 2, the same day on which the attach
ment was served. 1t will he remembered
that there was on that day a lively race
between the assignment and the attach
ment, and later a warm DISPUTE as to which
of the two had been served arst. The court
now orders Louch, Augustine Il Co. 10 de-
liver the goods instaater to the assignee.
and directs the latter to sell them for the
benefit OF all the creditors.
