STRIKE ON THE CONCORD
Crosscut Shows Twenty Feet of Ore
Jumbo Running Twenty-Four
Stdmps-PlentY Water.

According to the Grangeville
correspondent to the Tribune the
big strike on the Mother Lode
No. 2, one of the claims belong
ing to the Concord Mining COM
pany, has been confirmed by Will
@. Brown, manager of the Con-
cord company, who arrived few
days ago from Buffalo Hump and
left for outside points. The strike
has occasioned considerable ex-
citement in the Hump and is con-
sidered the most important ever
made in camp. When questioned
relative to the strike Mr.. Brown
said:
eve have crosscut the vein for
so feet on the 20O-foot level and
have 20 feet of ore that gives an
average of $3.50 per ton. An
excellent feature of the strike is
that the greater part of the val
ues are in free gold and some
streaks of good ore run as high
as 5000 per ton. We are drifting
along on the vein with the face
of the tunnel continually in gooC
ore and are now preparing tC
crosscut again. We believe that
the Mother Lode No. 2 will de-
velop into one of the greatest
mines of the camp. We are now
drifting north and south on the
2OO-foot level and are employing
% men,"
Mr.. Brown reports the Jumbo
mine now has an abundance O.
water for the operation of al
: machinery and "A stamps are be
ing operated regularly. The re
cent warm weather has meltet

four feet remain.

The big strike reported some
time ago on the Newsome and
Optimo claims, owned by John
Wells, which Occasioned consider
able excitement in this district,
is still carrying all the ear marks
of a mine. Mr.. Wells has run SO
feet of tunnel on the Newsome

gives a trace out of rock that

The Orient, owned by Shissler

north, and has a shaft 16 feet
deep which carries values and is a
splendid showing for the amount
of work done.
The Penockle, owned by John
Davis, and joining the Orient on
the north, has a tunnel 45 feet in
solid ore that pans well.
The width Of this dyke has not
been determined, although crop
pings at one place show a width
of rs feet. The length has beer
traced for a distance of 24O0 feet
and has been opened up in foul
different places, all carrying val

mouth of Newsome creek, in the
Newsome mining district. The
group comprises three claims,

gives assay returns of SIG in gold
and 81 ozs, silver. The claims
are close to the Moose Greek

the best in that section.

STRANGE STORY.
Boise Man Deserted Family Forty-Five
Years Ago.

A dispatch from Boise to the
Chronicle says a strange story
has come to light here in connec-
ton with the fling of the will of
the late John Wood, who died in
the hospital a short time ago.
Before his death he made a will
leaving his property, valued at
$50. 600, to his children. None
here knew that he had children,
though he had lived here 35 years.
He was married after he came
here and was afterwards divorc-
ed, but there were no children Of
the union. 1t now seems he left
a family in Crawford county, Mo.
in 1860. They thought he went
into the southern army and was
killed. His right name was Bruce
Wood. The wife and three chill
dren are still living, but he had
never communicated with them
or heard of them, and when he
came to make his will, he did not
know the number of children or
their names. They have been
hunted up since his death. The
children are Peter S. Wood of
Cuba, Mo-, John Wood of Steel
vile, Mo-, and Mrs. Maggie Stem
pie Of Florida.

officials to manage than those
who grow up on the reservation
without an education. It is also
a fact that great many Indian
children contract diseases while
away at school on account of the
methods of living, from which
they soon die after returning to
the reservation.
Last week Representative B. L.
French addressed the house on
the river and harbor bill. Mr..
French made a strong plea for
the opening to navigation Of the
Columbia, Clearwater and Snake
rivers, and a consequent reduc-
tion of freight rates for Wash
ingtOn, Oregon and Idaho. He
told Of the great natural resources
Of the northwest, and Of the
wonderful production Of the great
staples in that section, and main
tanned that the opening Of these
rivers would save people of the
northwest over a million dollars
annually in freight rates. Mr..
French spoke at length, was given
close attention, and received lib
eral applause.
Some time ago Representative
French introduced a bill in the
house Of great interest to the
people Of the arid portions of the
west. The bill porvides that the
proceeds from the sale of mater
ial utilized for temporary work,
structures in connection with ir-
rigation operations, money re-
funded in connection with irriga-
ton work, and also any proceeds
arising from the sale Of condemn
ed property used for irrigation
purposes shall be placed in the
! reclamation fund and be used in
, reclamation work instead of being
= returned into the treasury of the
2 United States to the credit of a
general fund. This bill was re
ferred to the committee on irriga-
ton from which a favorable re-
l port was received, and the bill
t passed. This bill will cause sew
D eral thousand dollars to be annu-
!. ally placed in the reclamation
fund that formerly went to other
e uses.

for humanity can best be realized |
by imagining a world without |
coal or iron, or any of their pro-
ducts. 1t is not difficult, because
it was presented in the aspect Of
Australia within quite recent
memory, and is still presented
among the South Sea savages.
The dominant figure in each case
is barbarian, but little, if any,
above brute level, while the lord
ly Am erican is what the metal
miner has made him. Out of the
industry also grew the more COM
plex features of civilization, and
especially those which have plac-
ed the old system of barter on its
present basis of exchange for
minted gold and silver. Sought
at first, without question, for
mere purposes of ornament, the
beauty and comparative rarity of
royal metals soon suggested the
practice which broadened down
to the modern methods. Then
with the search for these equiv
alents of value came in the phase
of mining which is unique among
industries, in that it stands free
of what the demagogues of the
day denOunce as the curse of
competition, because the product
had to be sold in open market
against the product of other
mines, but in gold and silver min
ing event his suspicion of alloy
is removed, aud the miner crowds
no one. His industry stimulates
all others and supports all others,
enriches all others, and holds out
it's arm to welcome all others tC
its own domain. The new farm
and the new factory are a tres
pass, though a legitimate one
upon the markets of the old ones
the new mine means only more
work, more wages and more
worlds wealth. This the mine-
distributes among the other in
dustries and earners. He himsel
{ produces nothing he can eat
wear, or use in any manner eX
i cept for the one exchange pur

S customer for the others. 1t is tn
