for this is that the winter is rather

This placer ground is almost di-
rectly under the old Florence dig.
gings, that is. on the old river bot.
tom, while the Florence diggingi
were on high bench, and con.
siderable distance above. The
Florence placers have given way tc
quartz mines, and there is a good
deal OF activity in the mines this
winter. Mr.. Heppner says some
New York capitalists have gone in
there, and three Huntington mills
are in full operation this winter.
A great deal of gold is being taken
out.
Mr. Heppner is inclined to be
enthusiastic over the Buffalo Hump
mines. Fourteen stamps are now
in operation at that camp, and two
more batteries of 10 stamps each
are now being installed. A fairly
good wagon road has been opened
from Grangeville, so that it is COM
paratively easy to get in there now.
Hitherto claim owners without
capital have been waiting to see
the result of the work of the Swee-
ney syndicate, which acquired the
Big Buffalo claim, and has been
doing a lot of development. The
syndicate has certainly arrived at
results that it is not willing to
make public, and is going ahead
with the work. Private owners
have lost their timidity, and are
putting in mills of their own and
opening up claims in various parts
of the camp. The most confirmed
croaker no longer doubts the rich
ness of the Buffalo Hump camp,
Mr.. Heppner says.
Grangeville people claim the
easiest route to Thunder Mountain
or Vinegar Hill, in the upper part
of Idaho county, near a branch of
the Middle Fork of the Salmon,
around which point a great deal of
mining interest is now centering.
That is the shortest route to a rail-
road, but there is some difference
of opinion as to the ease with
which it may be travelled. Rail-
road men have become convinced
that there is rich gold section,
and they are hurrying construction
both from Blackfoot and Nampa,
but there is still no railroad within
$50 miles Of Thunder Mountain.

In the Spokane Review Judge
Hey burn is quoted as saying on
the subject Of Northwest railroad
consolidation: 81 have read Sena-
tor I urner's letter, but / am Of
the belief that the state Of Wash
ington should not in any way in
terfere with the consolidation Of
railroad interests. The state
could, of course, pass stringent
laws, which might force the COM
panies to take different course.
But ! am OF the opinion that the
people of Washington will not
sanctio on any legislation against
the railroads that will have a ten
dency to cripply them" A man
with such tender feelings for the
railroads and an ever present fear
Of "crippling' them by legislation
would be valuable man to have
as a national legislator from Idaho.
But why discuss seriously such a
contingency as Judge Hepburn in
the Senate-he may ever sit like a
Peri at the gate, but he can't come
in. Boise Capital News.

A MOUNTAIN OF GOLD ORE
c. }. Fry Returns From Thun-
der Mountain Camp,


G. J. Fry, the California mining
man who is just back from a trip
to Thunder Mountain, returns with
encouraging news of the progress
Of the famous camp. Mr.. Fry says
the property is located a distance
Of days walk from the Dewey
property, but the snow in that Sec
ton has driven prospectors from
the hills. He says when he left
there was about four feet of Nat
ure's mantle in the camp and more
falling.
At the Dewey property the new
mill building was completed and
all the machinery installed, but
owing to the shortage of the water
supply operations at the plant
would not commence until Febru-
airy l. The mill was constructed
by Patrick Murphy, an experienced
millwright Of Silver City, and is
considered one of the most COM
plete in the state.
From the Dewey mine Mr.. Fry
brings the encouraging information
that a large force of men is now
engaged in stopping ont high grade
ore and that there was a large ton
mage of commercial ore at present
on the dump ready for the mill.
He says development work in the
mine has SO far failed to disclose
either the foot or hanging wall, in
fact the entire mountain appears to
be one enormous ore body. "You
can drive tunnel in at any point
on the mountain" he said, "and
the workings are entirely in ore. :"
He says when the mill starts opera
tons all that the owners of the
Dewey mine will have to do is to
run the cars into the tunnel and
break down the ground and load
them for the mill. In other words,
the ore can virtually be quarried,
everything going to the mill.
Mr.. Fry says that at present
there are nearly 100 men in the
camp and most of them are en-
gagged in opening up their own
properties. There has been no
illness in the district so far and
when he left there was not a. sick
man in camp.

The most astonishing phase OF
the census of 1900 is that there are
l 800, 900 more males than females
in the United States. OF every
thousan I'd Of the American people
today 5l2 are men, and only 4SS
are women. The increase in male
population has been steady during
the last half century and shows a
marked contrast to Europe, where
females uniformly exceed the males
in mum Der. This is due, in a
large m easure, to immigration, the
majority of the immigrants being
males. AS most of the European
immigra nts have come to this coun.
try, the great majority of men here
is, perhaps, accounted for.

THE JURY SYSTEM.

Oustlco Oavl0 j. Brewer of the
United States supreme court
has as interesting article in the
International Monthly for January
on the jury system. 1t is stripped
OF legal profundities, and many
excellent ideas are advanced. JUS.
tice Brewer is in favor of reducing
the number Of jurors and increas-
ing their pay. He says they now
receive only the wages of ordinary
day laborers, and we all know that
poor pay begets poor service.
In the matter of reducing the
number Of jurors Idaho has already
taken the advance step suggested
by Justice Brewer, and he makes
q note of it. We have not in
augurated other desirable reforms,
however. One of them is the
adjustment of the system of con-
timing jurors in important cases.
The justice very properly says that
1t is unfair to c0nfine a Jury and
let the judge go free. There are
as many dishonest judges in pro-
portion, as there are venal jurors.
Besides, if a juror wants to be
bribed, he will find the way,
whether he is locked up or not.
The very act Of secluding a jury
makes it an object Of suspicion,
from the moment it is placed in
custody, its members feel that they
ale regarded as dishonest until
they can prove themselves honor.
able, and suspecting man of dis
honesty frequently starts him to
meditating on how he can safely be
dishonest. Justice Brewer would
like, and SO would we all, to see
more representative citizens on
jurys. In every county seat the
professional juror" flourishes.
He is always in the way when the
sheriff comes with his venire, and
his answers always qualify him for
service.
Says the justice: "We cannot
TOO often repeat the statement that
it popular government is to con-
tinue, all must take an interest
therein and realize that upon each
one rests some share of the respon-
sibility; and the administering of
justice is one of the peculiar duties
OF the government. So there
should be brought home to every
individual the thought that he is
personally responsible for the way
in which justice is administered;
and if, from time to time, he serves
as a juror, he can but feel that he
is partially, at least, discharging
that responsibility, and is helping
to secure a more perfect admins
tration of justice in the COM
munity,"
