questions of Mr.. j. A. Lindelie, the travel

league in the issue of that paper for last
Friday. Seeing it refers to developments
in this county of some weeks ago we re-
produce it below:
Editor Plaindealer: notice you men,
toned the ''honest pluck" of Mr.. Lindelie,
How comes it his "honest pluck keeps
him from moving against the notorious
piggeres in places like Bismarck. where
officials and communities are wholly re-
publican? How comes it he denouuces
the people of a democratic community
like Langdon and fails to publish the
name of a republican states attorney in
a near county who fatty refused to move
against piggers when Mr.. Lindelie him
self requested it? Is Mr.. Lindeie but
another Kitf, an assistant manager of the
republican campaign? Is he supporting
openly any but republican nominees?

MINES OF COMMON CREEK.
Splendid Body of Mineral Disclosed
In the Comora.

The Times of Albion, Ida, makes
mention as follows regarding a strike
in the Comora mine on Conner creek
which is just over the Utah line:
The new strike recently made in
the Comora mine. owned by the
Comora Mining company. will turn out
to be a veritable bonanza if the 500
pound block of ore now on exhibition
at Story's drug store is any indication
of what they have in the mine, and
we are reliably informed that there is
plenty more ore of the same character
in sight. The Comora is the most ex-
tensively developed mine on Conner
creek, and the result of work already
done has only encouraged more work,
and with every foot it shows up
richer. One tunnel has been driven on
the vein for 175 feet, the ledge averag-
ing four feet in width the entire dis
ance; besides the above work numer-
Gus shafts have been sunk, aggregating
in all about 40 feet of work done on
the property. The block of ore men,
toned above was taken from the
breast of the 175-foot tunnel and is
creating considerable excitement. An
assay made from pieces clipped from
the entire surface of the block gives
the following returns per ton: Lead.
S24: "copper" IA per cent. When it is
considered that the ledge is four feet
wide and that it has been developed
along the surface by tunnels and shafts
for a distance of 1000 feet, it will be
readily seen that this is one of the
largest and best lodges in Idaho. No
need to go to the Klondike when such
lodges as the above lie at our very
door. The greatest depth so far at
tanned on this mine is 135 feet, and the
ore continues to improve with depth.
There are a large number of other
mines on Conner creek that are
equally as good as the Comora although
not so extensively developed the own
ers not having sufficient capital to
carry on the work. 1t is very difficult
to get men with capital to come and
look at the mines in this vicinity. but
when they do come it will insure a big
boom for our mines, for to see is to
be convinced. We venture the assertion
that there is no place in the mining
regions of this state that will pay big
ger dividends on capital invested than

The Greatest Discovery Yet

W. NJ Repine. editor Tiskilwa Olls.)
Chief, says: we won't keep house
without DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption. Coughs and Colds. Ex-
perimented with many others, but never
got the true remedy until we used DR..
Kings New Discovery. No other rem
edy can take its place in our home, as
in it we have a certain and sure cure
for Coughs. Colds, WhOOping Cough,
etc" It is idle to experiment with other
remedies, even if they are urged on you
as just as good as DR.. Kings New Dis
cOvery. They are not as good, because
this remedy has a record of cures and,
besides, is guaranteed. 1t never fails

CYANIDE AND CHLORINE.
Discussion As to the Two Methods of
Ore Reduction.


about to erect a plant as to what
method is best adopted for the extrac-
ton of values in ores, and owing to a
lack of experience are often led into
useless expense and foolish expert
ments by advertised schemes and
quack metallurgists, when the ship
ment OF a few tons of ore to some
practical chemist would solve the prob
lem and save them thousands of dollars
that are often put into a useless plant.
The contest today, says the Portland
Tribune. is in a measure between cy-
anide and chlorine. Cyanide is talked
OF as if it could perform miracles by
many who have no idea there is S-Ich
a thing as chlorine in existence. The
former is patented and advertised.
while the latter is free and little talked
of. 1t may be stated as a fact that
no process has been devised that is
universal in its application, and none
ever Will be any more than a cure-all
in medicine will be found.
Cyanide has been talked of so much
by those who lack all knowledge of its
principles and application that many
believe that it will revolutionze the
extraction of gold. While it has not
done that. nOr ever will, it has been
greatly successful in the treatment of
q certain character of low grade ore
and especially tailings. a few tests
have been successful in Colorado, but
there have been many failures; all
new methods have-met this fate. The
process is not simple; it calls for a
high degree of engineering and chem
zeal skill for its success. 1t will not
apply to all gold ores, but, on the
contrary, TO a very few. The utmost
care must be used in the way of prac-
no int
cess for the treatment of gold ores.
The question of applying ii to any par
ticular ore should receive much
thought The needed information can
be given by a metallurgist who is IA
miliar with its application, and they
can rarely be found outside of the
great mining centers. The conditions
required are as follows: The gold
must be in fine particles, as it is in

THE BLACK JACK HOIST.
The New Plant Installed at Silver
City. Idaho

An Avalanche representative had the
pleasure of inspecting and riding upon
the new cage" in the Black Jack shaft
last Monday, says the Avalanche, of
Silver City, Ida, and as il is the only
one in this camp, description of it
and some of its surroundings NAV be
of interest to our readers. The shaft
and station are reached through the
Idaho crosS-cut tunnel, and are in 1000
feet from the mouth of this tunnel. The
station is cut out of the solid granite
midway between the Empire State and
Black Jack lodges, and is equipped
with a 30-horse power hosting engine
The shaft is perpendicular and Will
intercept the Black Jack ledge at a
depth of about 200 feet, the ledge hav-
ing a westerly dip of about so feet to
the hundred. The shaft is now at the
100-foot level, from which cross-cuts
have been run both east and west to
the Black Jack and Empire State
veins SO and 100 feet, respectively. The
100-foot station, like the one above, is
large, Weil-lighted, and conveniently
arranged for heavy mining. A big
pump is located at this point, the eX-
haust from which is utilized in ven
tilating the adjacent galleries. Sink
ing Will soon be resumed and the shaft
continued down to the 200-foot level.
Frassc & Chalmer, AMI in some re-
specs re ;embles a hotel elevator,
stripped of its wood finish and uDhol-
Stery. Guide rails, one each side of
the compartment, retain ii in position,
and the passenger suffers no jOlts or
jars in a trip to the lower region. The
only inconvenience experienced by q
novice is the swallowing of his stom-
ach' a few times in a rapid descent.
While the cage provides an easy and
safe conveyance for the employees, its
chief mission is to handle the ore,
waste, tools, timbers. etc, mined and
used on the lower levels, and for which
it is especially designed. 4 loaded car
is run onto the cage, the signal given,
and in So seconds average time), ii is
at the tunnel station, ready for de-
livery TO the chutes. The cage auto
matically opens and closes the gate at
~ sta'ion when l. approaches and
leaves the same, making it impossible
for accident to occur by reason of open
gatewayS. Another automatic device is
4 set OF Tugs which protrude into the
shaft after the cage has passed up, and
upon which it set securely during the
loading and unloading of the same.
nen ready TO descend these Tugs are
drawn back by q compressed air de-
vice, the operating lever of which is
within easy reach of the engineer. The
cage is provided also with safety-dOgs, /
which would hold it securely if the
cable should break The machinery +
