New Company Organized to Develop
Washington County Mines.
Will Be SHIPPER THIS SEASON
Incorporation Papers Filed This Week--Cap.
italized at $250,000,

While east the past winter Stuart
NJ French, the well-known young
mining man, organized a strong com
paDy in New York City to operate a
promising group of claims on the
Snake river slope in the Seven
Devils district. The company is in
cOrp0rated under the laws of New
York as the Azurite Mining Com
pany, and is capitalized at $3.50, 900.
The officers are: Stuart M. French,
president; Walter G. Meeker, secre-
tary; Frank Lang, Jr., treasurer.
The headquarters of the company
will be in New York City, but Mr..
French will remain here and be in
active control of the operations. AS
1t is a tunnel proposition the COM
pany will be a shipper this season,
the ore in all probability going tc
the Salt Lake smelter. The proper
ties owned by the company are the
Azurite group of four claims, Chic
ride Nos | and 2, and the Aiken
group of three claims. The Azurite
group will be worked first. The
ores are silver sulphide, carrying
400 ounces and upward of silver,
some gold, 10 per cent copper and
10 or IL per cent lead. They are
adjacent to the we'll known River
Queen mine of Haas Bros. one of
the best properties in the district
Stuart NJ French, the organizer
and president, is to be congratulated
upon his success in putting such q
promising mining proposition on it's
feet. The entire stock of the com
pany is subscribed for, and all prelim.

THE CITY WITH THE CINCH.
How a Seven Devils Paper Throws
Bouquets at Weiser

In commenting on the Baker City
Herald's announcement of the final
purchase of the Northwest Copper
company, and the Northwest rail-
way, and the news of resumption OF
operations on large scale at the
Iron Dyke mine, the Seven Devils
Standard says:
''This is welcome news = yes,
thrice welcome = for it certainly
means that large amount of money
is soon to be distributed among the
miners and others throughout this
district, who have been waiting long
and patiently for what is justly due
them.
The article, with one exception, is
apparently correct We cannot re-
frain from calling attention to the
dramatic manner in which the writer
states that call these ores will have
to be taken to Salt Lake, Denver or
other smelling points, which will give
the best rates." and, eff there was
smelter at Portland it would get
all this immense business. F" This
sounds nearly as funny as Bose's
Thunder Mountain bubble.
Perhaps our esteemed contemporary
has forgotten that there is a lively
city on the Oregon Short Line named
Weiser-''The City with Cinch y
Ten miles from Weiser on the p. q

for all there is in 1T but there is only
one feasible outlet by rail from this
great district and that is via the P.
q L N. railway, which is to be ex-
tended from Council Ito Landore in
the near future.
That the company owns valuable
properties in the Vaughn group there
is no longer any doubt, and the early
resumption of operations on more
extended scale will mean much for
the whole Snake river belt, as we'll

Jim Holmes gets Three Wounds
In Free For All
Fight.

At a colored festival on Mrs. NJ.
A. Mason's farm at Locust Grove,
Saturday night a shooting ARRAY
broke up the festival and two men
were shot, two of them being severe
ly wound.
A negro nance Pettus did the
shooting and put three bullets into
Jim Holmes. He was shot through
both legs and the third shot made a
wound in his stomach.
In.the melee another negro whose
name could no be learned, stopped
a wild bullet with the back of his
head. The bullet fattened and fell
to the floor without doing any harm.
Holmes wounds were attended to
and he will recover.
No arrests have yet been made.
