Indian Children Share.

Among other items Of interest dis
cussed at the State Teachers Association
at Boise was the right OF Indian chill
dren To share Of the apportioDment
Of school money. Miss Jennie Harring-
ton, county superintendent of N,z Perce
county, had had demand made upon
her to recognize the Indian children on
the Nez Perce reservation for their pro
rata of the apportionment, aud cores
pondence with the Commissioner OF In
dian Affairs III Washington developed
the fact that that official holds that
Indian children Oh the Nez Perce reserve
are entitled TO an equal recognition with
white children, and hereafter these
Indian children will be recognized in
Nez Perce and Idaho counties, or as soon
as the census Of them is taken. AS they
have not been enumerated yet, nothing
will be done until the annual enumera
tion next July. In some Of the reserya

The Dewey Mining d strict.

Newton Hibbs returned late last week
from the Dewey mining district. He re-
ports very fine showing in that section
of the Lewiston mining district.
Divested OF technical terms the coBdi-

great eruptiye dyke of mineralized
porphyry. This dyke is cut by veins which
have been filed by precipitation. The
porphyrtic dykes are rich in gold. The
values revealed in the shallow workings
are not excessive; but the whole deposit

of this low grade ore is as great as that oi

CHICAGO. Jan. I4.--John barrett, ex-
United States minister 10 Siam. for the
FIRST time publicly named Senator Hoars
last Saturday, at Lake Forest university
as the sena,of whose anti-cxpansion
speech was cabled to Hong Kong and
subsequently, put in the hands OF the
Filipino soldiers, causing, as Mr.. Barrett
bclieved.the opcr insurretion. Frequent
ly this speech and its presumed effect
have been mentioned, and the reading
public has connected the name OF Senator
Hoar with j., and il is probable that Mr..
Barrett would not have used the laws
makers name on this occasion had be
not been facing an audience known to be
largely hostile to the admiristratioii's
policy in the Orient. II appears further
from the ex-ministef's speech that he
believes the government has discovered
privately the stage by which the anti
expansion address reached Luxon.
There was much interest inthe manner
of the reception Of Mr.. Barrctt's speech
At the close Of the meeting he was
rhcered aud the audience OF several
hands with him.
In the course Of his address the speaker
said il had been discovered III the govern.
ment's investigation that Senator Hoar's
speech was cahled in cipher and Ia
fragments to Paris, where II was put
together and forwarded to Hong Kong.
The message included several thousand
words, AM the cost for transmission was
said to have been $4ooo. II interested
the government TO know what friends
the Filipinos had at this time, wiio wcrs
| in a position To send the message
| II was IN Hong Kong at the time. :
said Mr. Barrett, "and | remember the
incident distinctly. YVES coming down
stairs In the hotel when met the prs 81
dent Of the Hong Kong junta, and he had
IN his hand the long dispatch he had re.
ceived. II gave a large part OF Senator
Iioar's speech in full and summary Of
the rest of IL asked the president what
he was going to do with II, and he said
that he meant to send IL TO the officers d
the army in the Philippines. He WA
urged not TO do il, but he protested tha
IL had been printed in the United State
and was public property. Pour days afte
4 that speech had been delivered IL was ii
the hands OF those who saw All oppor
tunity to make political capital OF II. Th'
speech Was published and distribute,
among the soldiers, and believe Il wa
the eliminating influence that brougli
about the open insnrrection. This speech
you must remember, was delivered befof
there was an open insuucction."
HoAR IGNORES BARRETT.
i Senator Hoar declines 10 take any no
tice OF the statements attributed to Nj
Barrett, cx-Minister TO Siam, In an asl

senator said that General Otis1report

Coal Under 3asalt.

Experts have always said that coal
measures were never to be found under
the basalt, but recent discoveries on
Birch creek have upset all the fine spun
theories. S. II. Wilcox was exhibiting
specimen ON the streets yesterday that
shows clearly that both wood and coal
are sometimes found beneath the basalt
He brought to town a chip Of wood from
a tree found imbedded between two
strata of basalt.
In prospecting for coal Mr.. Wilcox
came upon this tree in the strata Of
sedementary deposit which underlies
about 7oofect Of basalt. The wood shows
the action Of decomposition incident to
the transition Of wood to coal. II Is
dark and heavy resembling mahogany
in its texture. The tree. evidently about
seven feet in diameter in its prime, is
tiattcned by the enormous pressure II
was subjected to by the basaltic overflow
Ii was found thirty feet below deposit
Of sand and cay aud above this towers
the 700 feet Of basalt.
The location is made where the Grande
Roude canyon cuts through the basalt
Here the formation shows clearly the
/ successive steps in the geologic history
of the country. II shows that there have
been in the ages gone by two volcanic
overHows IN this section. After the frs
one came period when the elements
formed soil over the basalt and vegeta
tim Aourished, Some conception 0
lihis geologic period can be had when w
consider that the tree found was gian
specimen OF this prmevai forest. Thci
came period Of submergence when th
vegetation was covered with sedi
mantary deposit OF sand and clay, tliei
came the second volcanic overflow cover
ing the whole country with 100 feet Q
basalt above which now Hcurishes III
pine forests of the Grande Robde.
This tree lies at the top Of the vegetabl
deposit. beneath the each snccessiv

The gold is chiefly in solution but large
grains Of the pure article bristlc in the
primary ore before being released by
oxidization, This free gold was prccipi.
tated from vapor or liquid as the vein
filling was being deposited. These
veins, il must be understood. are within
the eruption dykes. The eruption car
ried gold values but whether the pre-
cipitation resulted from surface or an
interior source is not determined.
This dyke is now believed to extend
through all the gold camps in the Clear
water basin. The placer gold is now be-
lieved TO have resulted from the erosion
and decomposition OF this eruptive
matter.
The Dewey district is one Of the lowest
gold quartz deposits in the region. This
fact will give encouragement to the
miners along this belt. Dewey is only
1000 feet above the sea. Buffalo Hump
is 5000 feet higher and within forty
miles of this Clearwater cut of the same
belt
This gold sulphide in the veins within
veins is remarkable occnrancc. The
assay values have reached thousands ot
dollars to the ton The ores Of high
velues in the Dewey group promise to be
as extensive and as rich as the deposits
in the Independence mine Of Cripple
creek. This sulphide is distinctive ore
as much SO as the ores Of Republic OF
Cripple creek.
