LIBERTY BELL COMPANY
Another Promising Hump Property
That is Attracting Attention

Edward NJ. Griffith county attorney
of Idaho county was a visitor in Lew
iston yesterday and while discussing
the mining developments of the upper
country gave The Teller an account of
the work done on new property In the
Hump known as the Liberty Bell group.
This property is located near Crystal
lake and consists of three claims, viz:
The Liberty Bell, Australia and Rob
Roy, containing in all an area of about
fifty-five acres.
The Rob Roy is located on the north
extension of the Big Buffalo ledge,
while the Liberty Bell vein is on the
south extension of the Wise Boy ledge.
these claims lying directly between the
Big Buffalo and Wise Boy properties,
and on what is considered the mother
lode of the Hump camp.
There has been already expended
on this group in actual development
work over $4,000 in tunneling and
prosecuting and great bodies of good
ore have been discovered. The vein on
the Rob Roy is thirty-seven feet be-
tween walls and the vein on the Liberty
Bell is over twenty see- between walls.
Values on the Rob Roy near the sur
face show general average of nearly
$40 in free gold, and at a greater dis
tance in an ore shoot values as high as
$500 per ton. On the Liberty Bell VAL
ues as high as $500 have been found
A company is now formed to take up
the development of the group and a
ten stamp mill will be erected on the
Rob Roy claim in the spring.

SERIOUS DEMONSTRATIONS ON
ACCOUNT OF LIVERY STRIKE
Fabulous Prices Offered for HearseS for the
Dead and Outrageous Proceeding
From the Mob of Strikers

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller)
CHICAGO, Dec. 19-The livery strike
continues unabated. Fabulous prices
were offered today for hearses by rela-

In both instances the pr:ces were re-

There were nearly seventy five fun

are able to make arrangements.
The undertakers announce they will
not send out any hearses until the driv-
ers are forced into submission.
The most serious demonstration
since the livery strike began, occurred

BID FOR GOOD ROADS
Standard Presents the Problem to It's
Readers

II Idaho county could or would issue
bonds for $50, 900 for good roads, hire q
road expert who was also an honest
man, and go after the bad roads with
all that money, the county wouldn't
know itself in two years. Idaho county
is almost as primitive today in the
matter Of roads as ii was fifty years
ago. The judicious expenditure of a
few thousand dollars would bring back
many times their cost in the increased
development of the county. 1t costs
more to buy four and ix-horse teams,
and feed them wagon-loads of grain
and hay just to drag their pitifully
small but painfully laborious loads
through the muddy roads Of the prairie,
than it would to build good roads once
for all, and thus replace the long
strings of jaded, ever-hungry horses
with single teams of well kept ones
that cost so much less and do so much
more work because of the better roads.
The roads will be no better in ten
thousand years unless some one starts
the change. The world at large may
talk OF progress but Idaho county
hasn't much part in 1t, when it comes
to roads. s-.s4. - Il s.

samples.
Mr.. Thompson is very enthusiastic
over the possibilities and stated that
there was not any question but what
the iron ore in that section was the
greatest thing in the mining line in the
entire west. He stated that analysis OF
the ore on this property showed it to
be of the highest grade of hematite iron
and contains no titanium. and very
slight phosphorus and no deleterious
substance, which is shown by the fol-
lowing analysis made by Lerch Bros,
of Virginia, Minn., which is in the
center of the Mesaba range.
Iron, 51.0O; phosphorus. .l6S; man
ganese, none; silica, none: alumina.

by ignition, none.
Remarks: Sample is free from tita-
MUM.
He also stated that the ore was iden-
tically the same as found in the
Mesaba ranges, and from reports which
they have received on the property,
there is no question as to the quality
of the iron Said Mr.. Thompson:

NEW ORLEANS, La, Dec. 19.-In
the old Cabildo, where one hundred
years ago were held the ceremonies
that marked the passing of the great
Louisiana territory from the possession
of France to that of the United States,
interesting exercises were held today
in celebration of the centennial of the
transfer. The Cabildo was then the
seat of government for the territory
and is now used by the supreme court.
The ceremonies today followed as
closely as possible the program of one
hundred years ago. AS on that occa-
sion representatives of France, Spain
and the United States played the lead
ing parts. The speakers included Gov
ernor Heard of Louisiana, NJ. Jusse-
rand, the French ambassador and
Senior Ojedo, the Spanish representa-
tive at Washington. A feature of the
celebration was the reading of the
transfer proclamation from the bal
cony of the Cabildo exactly as one done
century ago. Guns stationed in
Jackson Square, formerly the Place
d'Armes, fired a salute and the flag Of
the United States was run up amid
vociferous cheering from the great
crowds that filled the square and the
neighboring streets.
