The claims and counter claims
about the Big Buffalo have re-
solved into an Improbable conten-
ton. The owners of the option on
the mine insist that its value has
decreased by virtue of unsatisfac-
tory development. This of itself
IS a remarkable instance. The fact
that interested parties argue from
data that is not conclusive, to say
the least, that the property has de-
Perforated, must arouse speculation
if not suspicion. The other inter-
ested parties, the original owners
and those who are interested in the
camp, generally deny that the ore
has deprecated with depth, and
they claim the facts purported to
be true would not justify the con-
clusion that the. mine was less valu-
BILE. The claim set forth that the
ore shows signs of turning base is
no surprise. Every mining man
has expected that of all Buffalo
properties, and, in fact, of all quartz
lodges as rule. 1t never was
claimed that the Big Buffalo
ledge was free milling. Every test
has shown the ore to contain sill
yer, iron pyrites and copper, com
bination that must make base ore
when ever depth is attained. The
fact that the ore signs are becoming
more base does not make it less
valuable than it must have been
considered in the early stages OF
development when any mining
man must know it would get base
with depth. On the other hand,
all things considered in this day oil
progress in the mining industry,
it is not positive fact that what
is commonly called base ore is a
disadvantage that it is not a
recommendation to state that an
ore deposit is base Spectators
are seeking base lodges because
they carry permanent values. 1t
would be in order to boom small
er proposition at this time.

Physical Financial Argument.

The enormous increase in the
prodution of gold within the last
few years, and the prospects that
the annual output of the mines of
the world will increase for many
years, says the New York Herald,
has served to convince many who
formerly advocated the remonetiza-
ton of silver by an international
agreement that such a step is un-
necessary.
George +, Roberts, director of
the mint, whose official position
gives much significance to what he
says, said tonight that he was for
merly an advocate of an interna-
tional agreement, but that in view
of the great change in the situa-
ton, due TO increased gold produc-
ton, he did not believe that such
all agreement was now possible,
because there was no longer neces-
sity for it. and it would be impos-
sible TO interest people in it.
The increase in gold produc-
ton, he said, sis almost incon-
ceivable. l have made a calcutta
ton. based on the most reliable
data. obtainable, which shows by
the year 1900 the annual produc-
ton of gold alone in the world will
equal the production of gold and
silver alone in 1896. This means
that by the time of the next presi-
dental campaign gold will supply
the volume of money that Mr..
Bryan and his followers in the last
campaign contended was necessary.
This leaves the advocate of free

c. J. Bassett is a state official.
He draws a salary from the state
treasury as immigration agent.
This fact does not prevent him
from endorsing a railroad advertis-
ing scheme to the extent of saying
in effect that the best way to
reach the Buffalo is by the way OF
Warrens. If this statement were
true il would not be the province
of a state official to make this
public statement. AS it is not
true the state immigration COM
missioner is guilty of crime
when he deceives the pub
lie by endorsing the adver.
Using scheme of the Union Pa,
citc and Oregon Short Line rail
roads, which is TO divert travel to
the Weser- Warrens route. The
fact is that this route cannot be
travelled till late in June. 1t is
either impossible from snow or
there are many dangerous river
crossings to make until after the
high water season. Even after
the dangers of high water are pas,
that road is fifty miles farther from
any railroad point than the camp
is from Lewiston by the Northern
route. Our state immigration
commissioner should recognize
North Idaho; should come ovel
aud get acquainted with the differ
ent routes of travel, and thef
shame would lead him to correc
this palpable error.
