There are hundreds of people"
says the Mining World who look
with contempt upon a new COM
pary, one Offering its shares a
little below par. If all investors
thought the same, two of the
greatest mines in the world would
not be in existence to-day, one
the Alaska Treadwell mine of
Alaska and the other the Calu-
met & Hecla mine of Michigan.
Not only is this true of these two
great mines, but many hundreds
of others could be cited. 1t has
been, is now, and always will be
the practice to offer the first
shares of a promotion company
at less than par.
The United States Steel may
have been an exception, and it
might here be added that the a.
mount of plumber taken in by
these promoters would have de-
veloped; and equipped many thou
sand mines, and )given employ
ment to many thousands of men.
Simply because a mining compa-
ny is young and offers it's shares
at the start at a little less than
par is no reason why it should be
passed up.
The shrewdest. investors are
the heaviest buyers of first allot-
ments, this does not mean that
they go it blind or merely take
f1ier' but they first ascertain in
whose hands the company i. is,
then make some investigatiopsof
the property. In other words,
they Investigate. thoroughly. be-
fore putting in, their money, not
afterwards. No one should invest
a dollar in mining without in
vestigating any more than they
would in any other channel of
trade or business"

We cannot help expressing the
hope that other foremen, super
intendents, and claim owners will
follow the example of Mr.. A. D..
Howell of the Newsome and Leg
gett placers, and manifest the
same public spirit in sending in
reports of work being prosecuted
in their respective sections. SThe
MINING News is almost daily in
receipt of letters of inquiry from
all. parts of the United States and
Canada, and even from such dis
tart points as London, England,
about the central Idaho mining
section. Needlesslto say we will
cbeerfully publish all communal
cations coming from an authen-
tic source.

conditions are propitious. Its adoption
is not to be recommended where stop

ceptionally favorable conditions exist.
A great saving in this system over the
stuffed form is the absence of a labor
bill for cutting bitches which frequent

MERELY A SUGGESTION.

Inc rumOr CnaC CnaS. OWeeIly
has purchased a considerable
tract of land near Harpster for
townsite purposes with the con-
tingent object of making that
point the terminus of the Clear
water branch of the Northern
Pacific may or may not have any
foundation in fact. 1t is to be
hoped in the interests of Elk City
and Buffalo Hump, that the ru-
NOR may be the fore runner of a
fact; but whether true or not, it
has at least the merit Observing
as a means of calling the 5atten-
ton of the mining men of those
districts as we'll as that of the
merchants and farmers of Camas
Prairie and the Clearwater Sec
ton, to the feasibility of a wag-
on road UP the South Fork of the
Clearwater to the mouth of Re-
lief creek where it would inter-
sect the Elk CityfHump road at
a point about half. way between
the centers of both districts.
True at the first glance it looks
like a pretty sizeable undertake
ing, which no doubt it is, and
one which will probably require
state aid for it's accomplishment,
still if the various interests and
sections above mentioned will
concentrate the amount of ener-
gy; on this enterprise they are
wasting now in the futile effort
to. keep the two roads already
constructed to Elk City and Buff
falo Hump ina passable condi-
ton it could be accomplished in
a year or eighteen months.
Among the many points which
could be urged for the construc-
ton of this road, there are -four
which stand out with command
ing prominence and which ought
to be sufficient to secure the in
dorsement of progressive men
regardless of local environment.
First: At no point along this
route between Harpster and the
mouth of Relief creek does the
snowfall exceed two feet.
Second: 1t would be the most
direct; reaching as I'll would the
ve@y center of the mining region
lying between the Middle Fork
of the Clearwater and the main
Salmon. ,..s. j
Third: 1t would eliminate from
nomic considerati on
those two strips, of mud
which are at present serving as
roads into the camps of the
Hump and Elk City, and permit
the county to concentrate the
money wasted every year in these
denominations into one perma-
nent road which, when built, will
serve to much better advantage
the object for which the two
present roads were established.
Fourth: 1t would be a water
grade proposition, thus eliminat-
ing the exhausting ascents com
mon to both the present high
ways. And, finally, it would be
a long step toward the concilia-
ton of two powerful elements in
the county, who have in the past
wasted energy enough, making
faces at each other, which if ap.
piled to the subject under discus.
sion would have been sufficient
to have built a railroad over the

MARKET
REMAINS
STIFF

The local hop market continues to be
strong, with an upward tendency. The
buyers are active, and number of lots
have changed hands in the past few
days, although growers are expecting
higher prices.
The quality of the hops of the 1904
crop is good, and, while the quantity
is somewhat short, the increased
price more than recompenses the grow
ers.
Buyers report "nothing doing" to
day, bulls and bears apparently watch
ing the market for chance to make a
killing.
