Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1903-12-25

john Olson, manager OF the Diamond
Joe group on Red Horse creek, was in
town m night the early part of the
week. Mr.. Olson has had many years
experience in mining and is a man
whose judgement can be relied upon,
He has spent a great deal of time in
Colorado, Nevada and Arizona. He
came to this district early this fall and
after spending several weeks here
bonded the Diamond Joe group of nine
claims, four miles from Elk City and
since has been steadily at work opening
them up. In doing this work he has
opened up some fine bodies of ore and
is now drivins a tunnel along the ledge.
1t is the intention of the company to
install a stamp mill in the spring should
the present showing continue, and the
strength and value of the veins on the
surface removes all doubt to the con
trary. William Struve, of Almont,
Iowa, is president of the company.
Mr.. Olson was seen by a represen a !.
live of the MINING News and when
asked what his impressions of the dis
trict are, said:
= "It was a surprise to me, after hav-
ing been in here two months and had
time and opportunity to look the dis
trict over, and it will surprise my
friends from Colorado and also some
mining men from New York who will
be in here next spring. The Elk City
mining district is far larger than is
known by the outside mining people.
Taking in the Buffalo Hump country
with the Elk City district the belt is
about thirty miles in width and in
length from Salmon river way up to
the Black Lead country, a distance of
over one hundred miles, and the hills
are scanned with quartz lodges. This
district is not very much explored yet
for two reasons. First, it is a hard
country for a p%rospector as the lodges
are covered with from five to twenty
five feet of wash and, second, the
country is heavily timbered and the
SlOullQ oJISWH WlJtl ldiltll JICSS. I1dQ
it not been for Mr.. Sherman's fortune
in opening up the American Eagle
mine the prospector would still be going
through to Thunder mountain. Now
you cannot compare Thunder mountain
with the Elk City district. We have
far richer ore here and you can say that
this is the best district in Idaho for
what we call free milling quartz.
Last season there was opened up
quite q number Of lodges south of the
American Eagle On a ridge lying be-
tween Siegel creek and Red river. To
the north Of Siegel creek are located
the we'll known Galena creek property,
the Blue Ribbon and Diamond Joe
group. Further north Mr.. Prader is
operating on the Columbia group. Then
comes che Schedule and several other
claims that are opening up, Down on
Crooked river are the we'll known
Hogan mine and LIE Roy group. Or

A REVELATION TO Finn
John Olson, Manager of the Diamond Joe Property. is Highly
Enthusiastic over the Elk City Mining District and
Predicts a Brilliant Future for it.

Relief creek are the Cleveland and
Champion groups, both with excellent
showings. Close to Elk City S. w.
Smith has opened up the Buster group
with two tunnels which show strong
lodges and good values.
l have crossed the plains of Arizona
from the White Hills to Bisbee and also
over the plains of Nevada. That
country has rich mineral lodges but
neither timber nor water. Here we
have free milling ore that rum up into
the hundreds of dollars and we have
plenty of timber and water for mining
and milling purposes. only know of
one mining district in this country that
is us large IS the Elk City district for
free milling ore, that is the old Gilpin
county of Colorado, but the difference
is there they are glad to mill two and
one-half OUNCES of gold to the cord, a
cord isnine tons while here we can
show them the same amount of gold to
the ton. Old Gilpin's timber. supply is
exhaused and itshas no water power
either Sz,
Some time ago the mining Inspector
of this state gave out a report in which
he said he believed in mining 5ooms, I
do net believe in booms for the reason
they create wild cats. Here there rs
plenty OF mining properties that can be
opened up on their own merits. When
the experienced investors comes in here
next summer, they will be well paid for
their investment and will find a lot of
good miners and the people eager and
willing to do all the favors possible.
"a certain mining man from Spo-
kane, who operated in here last winter,
l hear made the remark that the veins
in this DISTRICT does not go down. The
American Eagle mine is down to good
depth already and the values are in
creasing, SO has the Blue Ribbon and
Cleveland groups and several others
have also been. opened up and show
their strength below the surface.
"Now the belt l mentioned before
starting south.of the American Eagle
and going north for a good many miles
carries in its hedges, besides the gold
values, high values in silver, ard any
minerithat has experience in deep min
ing Isl satisfied that silver values go
down.
What we want here is a few custom
mills as they will open up the country
fast. There is a good. chance for a GUS
tom mill on Red river at the mouth OF
Siegel creek and also a mill on Crooked
river, then the local prospector has a
chance to open up his own claims. In
Gilpin county, Colorado, before men
tened, there are many such mills and
the miner there sends ore down that
runs two and a half ounces CT gold to
the cord and make a good profit on it.
Why should we not mill ore here that
runs an ounce to the ton? The mills
will surely come in a short time when
the truth is known to. the INVESTOR"

| Indianola, Sept. 19.-considerable in
terest is taken here in story fror1
| Des Moines TO the effect that Frank
Baird, who is serving an eighteen years
term in the penitentiary for robbery Of
the Sullivan family at Hamilton last
winter has turned states evidence and
Win testify at the trial of W. A. Rich
ard here next week, duplicating Rich
ards in the hold-up. The hold-up Was
one OF the boldest that ever occurred in
to torture the aged couple in order TO
secure a thousand dollars known to he
in their possession. 1t is claimed th3.t
Richards was at the Baird home in
Creston the night before the robbery;
they have even gone so far as to init
mate that they have a telegram in the
officials handwriting, directed to Baird,
which will play a prominent part in
the trial TO be held before Judge Gam
bic at Indianola.
The defendant is aware of the pre-
posed elne of attack. and is prepared
with a strong defense. 1t is UNDER
stood Mrs. Sullivan will testify that
she recognized Richards. who had been
stopping with the family, as one of the
masked men who entered their home
and held a burning lamp AT her bare
feet until she told where the $1,000 they
had received during the day for the
sale of land was hidden in the house.
Eai v-hn ah mi, Iai t,t-
Mr.. Sullivan, as he was retreating. will
testify, it is claimed that Richards was
in the deal. but that he was party
outside OF the house. After the capture
of Baird, Richards appeared on the
scene and took him into custody The
defense will claim that the testimony
of Baird is given to revenge himself on
the official. 1t will maintain that the
testimony of both Baird and Mrs Sui
Ivan cannot be accepted, as one places
him out of the house and the other
Within. Two clues. they aver, cannot
be established
1t is admitted that the worst thing
against Richards is his disappearance
for a time after he was accused. But
his voluntary return and his conduct
since that time Will be argued as sur
fcient TO counterbalance it.
A number of witnesses from Dies
Moines will be in attendance to testify
as to Richards character and his hani
writing If the alleged telegram is in
troduced.
II is frankly announced by the de-
fefse that should the jury convict,
there viii be an appeal to the supreme
court, because of the alleged prejudice
OF Judge Gamble, it being claimed that
at Baird's trial be made utterancees
which Indicated that he believed Rich
ards was implicated. An effort was
made TO get the case from him by tax
ing a change of venue from Knoxville
last spring, but it so happened that
Judge Candles circuit took him 10

trial. Ii is set for Monday morning.

RLAMEs THE AMERICANS.
a Greek in Sioux City Talks About the
Balkan Situation.


Special TO Times Republican.
Sioux City. Sept. 19.-With the $780,
I 900 of American money paid for THE
ransom of Miss Ellen Stone. the kid
mapped American missionary, the Ball-
sarians pr II hased arms and ammuni-
tion which has aided them in starting
.heir revolt against Turkish oppres-
zion.
This in effect Is the view of Alex
ander keriakedes, a Greek, in busin esei
Ion Fourth street. who has spent much
time in Macedonia and Turkey. ON
the other hand, the fearful atrocities
being committed by the Turks against
the Bulgarians are in measure
prompted by revenge for a scurvy trick
played on the Turks. According to Mr..
keriakedes. the Bulga.ians are the
villains who have been so wantonly
Staying the Macedonians, but they have
cleverly got the Christian world to be-
ieve that the Turks were entirely to
blame in this matter.
They Are Bandits.
'"The Bulgarians are bandits: they
captured Miss Ellen Stone and COL
lected $4,000 as a ransom from the
United States The Turks weren't re-
sponsl'ble for that, altho efforts were
made to make 1t appear so, and sup
pose to this day there are hundreds of
of people who blame the sultan. i've
no doubt a good deal OF that money
was used in purchasing guns, ammuni-
ton and provisions for the Bulgarians
who are now numbering Christians in
Macedonia. While you hear a good deal
about the unSpeakable Turk, nothing
is heard of the outrages perpetratesl on
Greeks in Macedonia by the Bulgari-
ans. For more than three years past
they have been guilty of the most afro
.cious crimes against our priests and
teachers. The Bulgarians, as I said,
belong to the same church as the
Greeks, but under a different patriarch
or head. They are, as a matter of fact,
seceders from the Greek church, altho
protesting the same religion now and
observing the same religious rites.
Still they do not stop at killing our
people, being careful always to lay 1t
to the Turks. The Bulgarians' enmity
arises in the fact, probably, that they
are descendants of Slays, who dislike
Greeks"
