Battle Of the Giants.

A sensational suit. which will
startle the mining world of the
Pacific northwest, was filed in the
United States circuit court al
Moscow last week. Ii is Il battle
of the giants.e On the one side are
pitted Patrick Clark, the noted
mining man of Spokane and a
group Of associates; on the other
Charles Sweeney, the well known
and daring Spokane operator
+. II. Culbertson, another well
known Spokane mining man, and
two big corporations mining in
Idaho and operating financially in
New York City. The sensational
allegation is made that Sweeney
company, the Buffalo HuMp, is
practically insolvcnt, and that tn,
Empire State-ldaho Company has
little property Of value beyond tn,
disputed ground.
The complaint is an intensely
interesting story of alleged in
triguc, falsehood and misrepre
sentaiion, by which, it is alleged,
the injured owners of the disputed
ground were induced to part with
property valued at Sl,OOO,OOO for
consideration of $4,000. This
disputed claims adjoin the Tiger
Poornan mine at Burke, Idaho
Slark and the other complainsnts
allege that Sweeney and Culbert
soa unlawiully explored the dis
puted ground by means Of diamont
drills, operated at a depth OF l60(
het; that they located a great ore
shoot; broke into it, extracted ore
and paid dividends, and thel

The County Assessment.

County Assessor Overman is
now putting on the finishing
touches to the assessment roll for
1901, and will soon be in position
to estimate the total valuation OF
property in Idaho county. He
informs us that the Northern
Pacific company will have between
10 and 20 miles of the track Of the
Clearwater Short Line listed in
this county, which, at the usua
rate of $4,000 per mile, should
make the company by far ou1
largest taxpayer, their total valua
ton being about 100000. Thi'
matter of assessing railroad proper
ty is, however, in the hands Of tn,

A Splendid Country.

Weiser signal
Few people have any idea OF the
splendid country being developed
along the Little Salmon and main
Salmon rivers, and as the building
of the state wagon road is drawing
attention to that section, it is time
that a more general knowledge was
disseminated.
Beginning about seven miles be-
low Round Valley ON the Little
Salmon and clear to the mouth OF
main Salmon, where it empties into
Snake river, "a distance of abou,
seventy miles, there is continu.
GUS series of excellent farms and
orchards selling their products to
the stockman, prospector and
miner. The Little Salmon and
main Salmon flow between two
very extensive stock ranges on
either side; the hills being covered
with luxuriant supply of bunch
grass. The stock industry has
been established in this section
but few years, and has hardly
seen its beginning There are at
present about 1000 head of sheep
and 2 200 or 5000 head Of cattle
ranging along the two Salmons.
The capacity of that country is at
least ten times that amount.
Stockmen have not made their
headquarters there because of the
isolation of the county, but with
the opening of the state road and
easy means of access to the z. &
l. N. and o. S. l.. railways, it will
rapidly progress to full possibilities
in stock production.
The mining industry promises
to become far more important, but
is, and has been, suffering from
the same isolation which has
caused development to proceed SO
slowly, but with first class wagon
road down the Little Salmon,
scores of claims now held by
annual assessment only, can be
fully and cheaply d we ped, ore
shipped, machinery supplied, and
active production established.
On the utopia" properties on
Rapid river, twelve miles from it's
conflunce with the Little Salmon,
a concentrating plant was placed
last year, the machinery being
hauled lao miles from Lewiston.
The Sampson" group Of mines in
the same vicinnity will install
machinery. Other mines in this
Vicinity are being secured 10y

alton OF transportation facilities.
Copper discoveries OF great i'm port
ance have been known on Ra Did
river for years but never worked
for patent reasons. In the Crook 8
Corrall country, eight miles from
Golf, an immense ore supply has
been developed on the .'Blue
Jacket group. Hosting works
placed on this mine last season
were taken in from Lewiston
There are at least twelve mines in
this district that are sure to be-
come shippers Of ore and machin-
cry. From Crooks Corral to the
mouth Of the Salmon river large
copper deposits exist. Coal dis
coveries have been made on the
upper Rapid river, but the value
Of same has not been demonstrated.
With the completion of proper
highway and the possibility of
cheaper goods, supply points will
be established on Salmon river
that will draw the trade OF mining
camps from Warren to Buffalo and
Florence.
In all this territory included in
the trading scope opened by the
new road, the population of which
will avail themselves of it in whole
or part, there is, in mining camp,
on the farm and on the range, a
varying population Of probably
1900, which population develop
ment will increase two or three
times at the most con sentative
estimate.
This business all goes TO Lewiston
and Grangevillc at present except
q little. which comes south over
the Little Salmon pack trail.
The distance from the p. & l. N.
railway to the central point Of the
