THE OWL CREEK STRIKE.

Those of us locally who fail to real
ize the importance of the gold dis
coveries Oh Owl creek are simply
standing in our own light.
The testimony of every single lndi-
vidual who has seen the ledges dis
covered by Mr.. Cross and examined
the country roundabout is that the
ore deposits are Of prodlgious extent.
That the ore is rich in gold has
been demonstrated by the simple
process of chipping It off the lodges,
any old place, and pounding it up in
mortars. Nice paintings of gold are
found anywhere on these lodges.
This is the best and truest test
known.
Even should the ore turn out to be
of very low grade it is there IN such
vast quantities-mountains of it
that with the natural advantages that
abound in the way of power, timber
etc., it may be mined and milled al
the minimum cost and still weld
enormous profits. The Treadwell in
Alaska, the greatest dividend payer
in all the world, never yielded an as
say richer than sos and the average
value of its ore is $3.50 per ton.
Fourteen hundred stamps are drop
ping on that mountain.
Ample capital has already been in
terested to exploit this district and

occasioned by the laws delays has
been felt in nearly every community.
One paper, the Anaconda STANDARD,
observes that out of 14O murderers
who have been caught red-handed in
Silver Bow county only two have suf-
fered the death penalty. In this case
there was absolutely no shadow of
doubt that the culprit was guilty of a
most atrocious crime. He had been

those New York fellows are so well
satisfied with what they have 90,
that they are content to dig it out fol-
themselves and are not trying to un
load their sock on anybody. And,
by the way, they are not extending
any invitations to anybody to come
and join them in the good things that
abound in that great, resourcefnl re-.
gion. You can go IN on your own
hook, however, if you want, for it's
about the freest and least explored
locality IN this great free country.
Incidentally it is also one of the Wild
est and hardest countries on earth to
knock about in.
The whole country is mineralized.
For $50 miles below Shoup the
placers and lodges along the way feed
the Salmon river with the fresh gold
that is washed off it's bars every year
by hundreds of gum boot Miners .
In the immediate vicinity lots of gold
is being rocked out of placers and
pounded mp by arastras-large profits
are realized even by these crude
methods. On Hughes creek, only 20
miles away,hundreds of thousands of
dollars in gold have been washed out
in the past two or three years. Near
by on Indian Creek the stamps are
pounding out gold in such quantities
as to startle the very stockholders of
the companies operating. It's no idle
guess to say that this vast mineral
lied country in a few years will sup
port string Of camps bigger and
richer than those along Cripple
Creek-a zone that only few years
ago was despised ana discarded as
worthless.
Supplies for this section must of
necessity be drawn from the Bitter
Root. The dizzy hordes of gold
seekers must enter by this gate. How
can we farmers along the wayside
help reaping rich haryests, VIII,
not push good thing along?

The Amalgamated Copper Co. on
Oct. 18th gave great barbecue, that
cost $4,000, to. itso6, 6,OOO,employes in
Butte. This action is in line with
, the company's avowod policy of con-
clliation. It's desire to be on good
terms with its employees, who are
mostly voters, and the people in gen
eral, has been manifested in many
ways of late. The Western News is
of the opinion that the Amalgamated
Company nor any other concern need
feel no apprehension lest it shall get
a square deal and all that is Justly
coming to it from the people of Mon
tana, so long as it confines it's activi-
ties within industrial and business
lines. But whenever it OF any other

body which was rendered to-day
As predicted by all familiar with tn
merits of the controversy, the Cana
dian contentious were rejected almos
entirely.
Canada scored on but one point
that being the question as to the own
ership of the Portland canal. This
arm of the sea has it's mouth on the
ocean almost e2 2actly on the parallel
or latitude 54:4O at the extreme
southern end of Alaska. It Is but q
few miles north of the Canadian Port

railway. Portland canal turns north

tains. Proceeding up it and cross
ing the range the interior country
can be reached. AS an entrepot for
the Canadian Klondike it has some
little value, but it is by no means as
important point geographic ally as
either Dyea or Skaguay, for the pos
session of which Canada contended
Portland canal goes to Canada.
Therefore the only change which
will be made in the map as result
of the commissions sitting will be to
tilt up the southeastern corner of
Alaska few miles. A little trian-
gular strip, chiefly of water, and one
small island, heretofore claimed by
the United States, so under the Brit
ish flag. This triangle can be seen

that mob law is anarchy and that the
action Of this particular mob was Ill
advised and lawless, yet it must be
conceded that the culprit got only
what he richly deserved, and that
were such accommodating, gentle

Silver Peak Mines.

Silver Peak appears to be coming
into notice as a producer of rich ore.
The New York Sun reports strike
that rivals the richest ore of the
Mizpah in Tonopah Our readers
will recall the article which appeared
in "Profits" referring to the trip of
Mr.. f. w. Thomas, of Thomas & Co. ,
to Silver Peak, Nevada, to examine
the property there. His report was
so favorable that the property was
purchased by the South Nevada Gold
Mining Company, whose shares will
shortly appear on the curb in New
York. A syndicate of well known
New York and Philadelphia capital
lists have underwritten the shares, SC
that the mine starts out at the be-
ginning with sufficient capital to
make it success The mines of the
South Nevada Gold Mining company,
according to the engineers reports,
have large bodies of ore in sight and
the assays are as phenomenal as
those of Tonopah, many of them run
ming into the thousands of dollars per
ton. Bonds bearing five per cent in
terest, payable quarterly in New
York, can be had at an advantageous
price from Thomas & Co., The

Key Pittlnan.

BY some inadvertance of the
printer the name of Key Pittman
was left off the printed program OF
the Hearst dinner. AS it very fire.
quently happens the man who is left
off the program generally lands the
best speech. Pittman wasno excep-
ton to the rule. He was new man
to the audience and he made good, y
as the saying goes, and he kept right
ON making good He has q fine de
livery and ringing voice, and his
magnetic eloquence stirred the
crowd. 1t was a pleasure to listen
to him. and when he spoke in defense
of Tonopah he carried his audience
with him. The citizens of that grow
ing camp made no mistake when they
sent him to Carson to fight their bat
ties His words came as something
right hot off the stove and in add
ton to this he has made host of
friends during his short stay here.
Keep your eye on this man Pittman.

After a winters snlulrn m New

returned to Salt Lake Ia remain.
Mr. Land saws that a great deal NJ
interest Is being taken IN the Tono.
pah district in the east and no trou-
ble has been experienced in raising
money for the development of mines
in that camp. Regarding the prop
erty Of his own company, he says
that the shaft will soon have reached
point where stop will be made ia
erosscut the formation.
1--WE have no fear OF results, " said
he. "We have been working to gain
depth and with that accomplished it
will not take long to tap the veins
we are positive run through our
claims. "
Mr.. Land also stated that it was
remarkable what a fourishiug bust
ness the promoters of Thunder Noun
tain enterprises were doing. Quite
a number of companies either oper-
ating or preparing to operate in that
region are disposing of treasury
stock in bewildering quantities and i
the money is honestly applied, he de
clares, there will be an unusua
amount of activity in the much ad
vertised Idaho section during the
coming season. Salt Lake Herald.

The proper time to buy mining
stocks is when the company is first
organized and while the stock is low,
provided the company is a good one
that is, is founded on good substan-
tial properties which by development
can be opened up into good dividend
paying properties, and not, as many
investors seem to think, when the
