THE MINES.
Last Weeks Output Very Good for the New Camp.
along very well.

along very well.
The Omaha mine on the 1. & D.
lease, has gone into what 10 believed
to be the same run of ore found In
the famous Hobo. The ground the
direction of the Hobo 10 changing
from silicste to jack, and the jack 10
getting heavier NJ the drifting pro-
gresses. A mill will be built on
the Omaha this fall.
Winkler & Co.. on the Valliere
land, are making arrangements to
1T once sink prospect shaft. They
have found ore In three holes on
the land, and the depth has been
very uniform. In each drill hole
the ore was found at about 60 feet
and the drill went through about
q feet of ore In each hole.
Don McRuer, superintendent OF
the N. X. & T., tells us he will at
once begin the erection of concen'
trating plant. He has drifted in all
directions from his shaft and found
good ore, and then he has sunk the
shaft about 20 feet deeper, and is
still 10 ore; in fact there is ore
everywhere, and he has thoroughly
made up his mind to build mill.
and first class one, too.
A wonderful strike of lead was
made in the Omaha Monday. In
the north drift the workmen shot
into face of lead which entirely
covers the drift face, and 1t appears
to be almost solid. A big body of
very rich jack is under the lead.
The ore is in open ground. and Su'
perintendent Watson says mill
will be built at once. The Omaha
will rival the Strong Bow and Ho-
DO as a lead producer. Six hand
jigs are working.
The Strong Bow Mining Company
made it's usual output of about TO-
600 pounds of lead last We X on two
hand jigs. We understand the com.
pany has decided to erect modern
concentrating mill az soon as pot
sible. The jack ground has not
been worked on yet, but the lead
dirt has been prospected in all di-
rections from the shaft. and it
seems to be as good in one direc.
ton as another. The jack of course
lies under the lead, and there is
about fourteen feet of it.
The Hobo had some of it's rough
stuff cleaned last week, to deter.
mine it's richness. A few wagon
loads of rough stuff were hauled to
the Sunny Side and cleaned. Six
and one half tons of clean ore was
the result. The owners, as we said
last week, are having plans made
for lOO-ton modern concentrating
plant. The lead ground has not
been worked on yet, although about
twelve feet Of il was gone through
in sinking. Under the lead was IA
feet Of Jack. and this has been drift
ed on. And in the face of the drift
lead is coming in again.
The Mission lie shut down this
week to make a general overhaul.
ing and cleaning up of machinery.
Again, the boys wanted chance to
celebrate the glorious Fourth and
have time to recover from il.

The Mail aud Breexe OF June 10
contained the following very sensi-
BILE article:
1.-THE Japanese minister at WASH
ington has given out m interview
in which he says that Japan has no
intention whatever of trying to take
the Philippine islands; that the
feeling in Japan 10 most friendly to
the United States and that the Mi.
kodo has no dream of territorial ex.
pansion.
1.-THE minister may be correct in
his statement of the present inten-
tions of Japan. We have no doubt
as a matter of fact that he is telling
the truth.
"There 10 no reason to believe that
just now Japan 10 hunting for any
trouble with the United States. On
the contrary we have no sort of
doubt that the Mikado and his sub
jects are friendly to this country.
They have every reason to be.
but the best time to make bar
gain with man 10 while he 10 feel
ing good and friendly.
There is no sort of doubt that the
Philippine islands would fit Japan
and Japan needs them in her bust
ness lot more than your Uncle
Samuel.
Japan is friendly now. She may
be friendly for a hundred years
from now and all the intervening
time.
at is reasonably certain that aft
er getting through with this war
Japan will not want Immediately to
Jump into another one, 30 that there
is no immediate danger of hostili-
ties between the Japs and US. We
think that the first thing on the
Japanese program will be the reor-
ganization of Korea and China. 10
rea will almost certainly be made a
part of the Japanese kingdom and
China will also be taken under the
wing of the Mikado, though it may
be allowed to have a nominal indie
pendence. This will also be the best
thing that can happen to the Chi
namen.
carrying out this program will
take several years and for that
length of time there is little danger
of trouble between the Japanese
and US. But Japan will eventually
aim to dominate the eastern part of
Asia and the islands adjoining.
When the time comes that Japan
really wants the Philippine islands,
il che believes that che 10 strong
enough to take them she will find
come excuse for going after them.
"This country does not need the
islands. We never have needed
them. We simply had them left on
our hands. Japan understands
those people better than we do and
can therefore govern them easier.
Let us sell them while japan is feel
ing good. Let us get az good bar.
gain az possible, retain a good coal
ing station and harbor and conces-
sions In the way of trade and let
the islands GO"
