The Cyanide Gold Mining company
Is now prospecting it's ground, compris-
ing the townsite, with diamond drill.
The officers Of the company feel quite
certain that they will find the big
blanket vein Of ore in this territory.
Missoula, Oct. 1S.-It is announ-
ced in Missoula that the Morning and
Evening group Of mines, in the Occur
d'Alenes. have been sold to the Fed
eral Mining and Smelling Co. of New
Yok, for approximately $6,0O0,000.
They were bonded for 100000 a
few days ago by the same company.
The Barnes-King company will soon
be operating its new electric diamond
drill on ground adjoining it's main
property, and through its operations
the company expects to add consid-
cradle area to its producing ground.
Much new machinery is now being
installed at the mine, and the plant
will shortly be in far better shape
than ever before.
Mares Brothers, of Helena, who
own and have been developing the
Sleepy Eye mine near Yogo, have
made fine strike, the vein being large
and strong and the ore running as
high as $48 per ton of smelling ore.
1hey have a tunnel in so feet and
a shaft down 25 feet. The property
will be thoroughly developed and
worked.
Sapphires occur in almost all vari-
ETY. of colors, blue being the color in
which the greater number of stones
occur, and is also the most popular,
the best stones being found of blue
color, the deep shades being most
sought. The Brazilian sapphire is not
the true stone, it being blue tourma-
line and less valuable. Cyanate and
iolite aer often sold as sapphires, but
are inferior, being less hard than the
true sapphire, which possesses hard
ness of nine.
According to figures compiled by
the assessor, Shoshone county and the
state Of Idaho, will receive from the
mining companies operating in the
Occur d'Alenes, the sum of $114,3O4.-
80 as taxes for the current year. The
entire valuation of the county is &c.
148,000.00. The levy is fixed at $500
per 100000, which brings the total
taxes to be paid the county to 1884,
$4,000, over 60 per cent of which sum
is assessed to the mining companies,
on their improvements and net pro-
fits. The net profits for the current
year are officially reported at $2,951.-
811.6O.
The shipments from Tonopah for
the month ending September 80,
amounted to 1856 tons divided as fol-
lows: Tonopah Mining company, 81
O35 tons; Tonopah Extension, 1880
tons; Montana, 1876 tons; Belmont,

Il
| Charleston, W. Va. Feb. s Since
1.-THE passage of the Salem charter bill
in the senate by such an oyerwhelm-
ling majority sentiment here has
been fast crystalizing in its favor.
THE Charleston Mail, which has be-
come one Of its strongest advocates
Isince the senate disposed Of it, says
editorially:
The new charter for the town Of
Salem, in Harrison County, passed
the Senate on Saturday, and is now
pending in the lower house. The
vote in the Senate on the passage
OF the bin was twenty to five, shuv-,
ling remarkable change of senti-
ment in favor Of that measure from
former years. The facts are that
the vital and important business IN
terests Of Salem are now solidly ar
rayed in favor Of this measure. and.
having sent their most conservative
business men to the Capitol to pre-
sent the claims of the City, the Sem
ate responded to the general de-
mand and passed the bill with prac-
teal unanimity. The measure viii
receive consideration in the House
during the present week. This is
the first time in the three sessions
that this bill has been under con-
sideration that the representatives
in the Legislature from Harrison
County have been a unit in support
Of the measure.
"Hon. Raymond Maxwell, who is
chairman Of the Committee on Rail-
roads, and also one Of the ablest
Young men in that body, is earnest
y in favor Of the bill, His col
league is as earnestly for il as Mr.
Maxwell. The opposition is not
nearly so aggressive as two years ago
and all information that can he OH
tained from the territory interested,
tends to the support of the measure.
"Salem is growing, thriving, pro
gressiye Town, but has been greatly
retarded for want Of comprehen-
siye charter under which improves
ments may be made. II this charter
's passed by the Legislature, the best
posted people Of Salem say that in
Two years Salem viii become one Of
the best towns in the State, and will
5e able to compete with other, towns
Of the same size and Importance.
"There is absolutely no political
question involved in the effort to
secure charter for Salem, and from
both sides Of the membership, it's
supporters are among the strongest
men Of the body.
"rhe Mail. in harmony with the
'lesire and public improvements in
my city, earnestly hopes that the
House Of Delegates viii pass the
bill, granting new charter to the
City Of Salem"
