and intends to spend the summer
at the mine.
G. A. Ross is driving a tunnel
on the Ready Bullion property
which adjoins the Vendetta mine
on the west, and is encountering
some very fine ore.
A rich strike has been made on
the Butterfly group, owned by
Bob Pulse and E. F. Gordon. AS
the lead was discovered but a
short time ago no very deep de-
velopment has yet been done, but
the discovery shafts and test pits
on the vein show a fine body Of
good panning rock, and assays as
high as SIS have been. obtained
from the deepest test pit. The
owners will develop the property
extensively the coming summer.
The V. & O. Mining company
are pushing their crosscut tunnel
right along and are now in $50
feet. The values increase stead
lily on the great zone. The COM
pany will soon put a force of men
on their main working tunnel
which will be eight feet wide in
side the timbers. A distance of
only fifty feet will have to be run
in the main tunnel to encounter
the big zone. This tunnel when
completed will attain a depth on
the zone of 760 feet and over
thirty million tons of ore can be
mined from this level. There are
three crosscut tunnels on the
Vendetta and together they cross
cut 800 feet Of the ore body. The
ore crosscut in the tunnel aver
ages between four and five dol.
lars per ton in gold. The surface
test pits show a width of 500 feet
of ore yet to be crosscut under
gronnd. A directors meeting
will be held while DR.. Sarazin i:
at the mine, to decide on future
plans of the company.

Made Man0gdr.

A special from Spokane to the
Tribune says Fred Bradley, ex-
ecutive head of the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan silver-lead mine at
Wardner, Idaho. has also been
made manager of the Federal
Mining & Smelling company, of
the Coeur d d'Alenes. His appoint
ment is regarded as signifying
that the American Smelling &
Refining Co. interests, which con-
troll the Federal, have also sue
ceeded in getting an important
influence in the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan.
Mrs. Victor Clement, widow of
a former manager of the Bunker
Hill, recently sold about $4,000
shares of Bunker Hill for nearly
81, ,000, 900 to the Guggenheims.
For a long time the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan vigorously fought
the American Smelling and re-
fining company, but the appoint
ment Of Mr.. Bradley, head Of the
Bunker Hill, to be manager OF
the Federal. is considered as eyi.
dence that the two corporations
have reached a friendly under
standing whereby one man may
manage both companies. Edgar
L. Newhouse, a director of the
big smelling company, is in Spo
kane on business.

Forest Reserve Figures.

Calculations made by the Coeur
d'Alene Press based on figures
taken from the United States
land office, show that out of
145 townships comprising the
total area of Kootenai county, so
have been granted by the gov
ernment to the Northern Pacific
railway, 25 are withdrawn in the
Priest River reserve, 10 in the
Occur d'Alene Indian reserve,
making 95 townships, or two
thirds of the. county, appropri-
ated by the federal government.
In Shoshone county similar con-
ditions exist. That county has
within it's boundaries 131 town
ships. Eleven townships are al
ready in a forest reserve and it
is proposed to add 81 more, a
total Of 65 townships, leaving 66
townships in the county outside
the reserves. Deduct from this
the Northern Pacific grant lands
in the county and the state selec-
tions and there are but few town
ships left for settlement or pri-
vate ownership. The Idaho
county figures are not immedi-
ately available, but the condition
there is probably worse than in
either of the foregoing instances.
AS an instance of how these re-
serves are administered, the Elk
City Mining News reports that
"Wm Finley is owner of a placer
claim on Red river, over which
passes the Elk City-Dixie wagon
road, by the side of which he has
built his house, and which in re-
sponse to public necessity, he has

Eyes Blown Out.

Dan Bell, driver for the White
Bird stage, brings out word of a
distressing accident at the Cam
pell mine, on the Snake river,
below Pittsburg Landing. On
Monday evening N. J. Smith, a
miner % or "a years of age, was
preparing to fire a round of holes
in the mine. 1t was not his shift,
but one of the other boys had
gone to catch a mess of fish for
supper, and Smith was putting in
the shot. In handling the caps
his pipe-he was smoking at the
turned bowl downward,
and dropped a spark in the caps.
They exploded, destroying his
eye sight and injuring him other
wise. The unfortunate man was
brought to White Bird Tuesday.
He is doomed to be blind the rest
of his life. A telegram was sent
on Wednesday to a brother in
Dakota, telling of the accident

another shoot which as yet has
only been explored on the surface
and shows a length of 400 feet
and a width of about 10 feet.
Tunnel No. 2 will tap this ore
shoot in 130 feet at a depth of
considerably over 200 feet.
Taking the property as it stands
it is in a better position than ever,
because most of the dead work
required to prove the new shoot
is already done, besides a devel-
oped ore reserve of $4,000 to
thoroughly develop it and carry
on deeper exploration, which,
after all, is where the operators
must look for big results with
any certainty of securing them.
However, as to the future of
the American Eagle, its develop
ment could not be entrusted to
safer, more disinterested, or ex-
perienced hands than those of
the present superintendent, A.
w. Boyd, who, it is hoped, will be
permitted to carry out the system
of development he has planned,
and which will, without reason
able doubt, place that property
among the dividend payers in the
near future.

Inconsistent.

The forest reserve advocates
are not consistant. One authority
says that the rainfall is not in
fuenced by the forests; another
says the forests must be preserv-
ed for future generations; another
says merchantable timber is
grown every seventy years where
forests are destroyed by ak or
fires; another says that they must
be preserved to hold the snowfall;
another admits that the forests
do not hold the snowfall, but
simply create a cool breeze to
temper the hot blasts of the sun;
a lother declares the snowbanks
on the higher peaks are evap-
GRATED. The whole subject in a
nut shell is, that the government
is being pushed into a system of
speculation to make lumber dear
er by which it will profit i'm
mensly. The settler and pioneer
is to be deprived Of the advan-
tages he has heretofore had, and
in the end the government will
reap the reward of greatly en-
hanced values. This plea of saw
ing the forests for the people is
all rot. The forest reserves have
been created, and are being ere.

News from Orogrande.

Mr.. Coale of Chicago, who was
in town Friday, says the Una
tilla is looking fine. Mr.. Coale is
a stockholder in the Umatilla Co.
and intends to spend a few days
here. w. C. Brewer is the mine
superintendent.
The Crooked River M. & M.
company's mill is running full
blast again after a brief delay
caused by a shortage of lime.
They are milling about 300 tons
daily and expect to increase their
milling capacity soon. Contracts
for distributing the pulp in the
teaching tanks have been let to
w. H. Duval. 1t is reported that
they are mining and milling their
ore for less than a dollar a ton,
and the ore is being mined and
delivered to the mill for fifteen
cents per ton.
DIR. f. G. Sarazin, president of
the Vendetta & Orogrande and
vice president of the G. R. M. &
M. Co., arrived here Monday and
will spend a few days in camp.
He expresses himself as well
pleased with the outlook Of the
district.

deal whereby the property has
passed into the hands of Balti-
more syndicate. They have pur-
chased the property outright of
it's original owners, Messrs. John
son and Lewis Morton. Mr.. John
esse has been installed as super
intendent, and Pete Kearney as
foreman. They have put three
shifts to work, and are going to
open up the mine to its lowest
possible level by means Of a tun-
mel. Mr.. Johnesse never lost
faith in the mine, although he
did not have the capital to bring
it to where he could make it pay.
1t is known to carry much rich
ore, and is said to be a really rich
property. 1t will be good news
if the mine can be put on the right
kind of basis, as it's success will
help the development of many
other properties which are owned
at least partly in this part of the
country. -Grangeville Standard.
Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1905-06-24

That there are a thousand or
fifteen hundred tons of ore avail
able for milling in this well
known property at the present
time, without the necessity of
developing a foot of new ground,
is a statement that will come as
a distinct surprise to many read
ers of the Mining News. Such,
however, is the estimate of A.
w. Boyd, the superintendent, to
whose courtesy the Newsman is
indebted for the above informa-
tion, as we'll as a view of the re-
serves of ore mentioned. Con-
siderable of this ore is contained
in the various old dumps of the
prospect shafts and tunnels, but
by far the major part lies be-
tween tunnels Nos. 1 and 2, and
above tunnel No. 1.
This is all developed ore which,
with the exception Of one place
near the surface, does not require
the preliminary work of opening
a. stope, as this has been done
prior to the shut down, and which,
according to Mr.. Boyd's estimate,
will mill about $4,000.
Aside from this handsome nest
egg,. the Newsman was shown

made a road house. In rebuild
ing his house recently destroyed
by fire, he needed a shake tree,
and his own claim not producing
suitable timber, he cut tree on
the public domain, which, under
the laws, he had a right to do.
This right, however, the forest
reserve officials deny, and collect
ed $4. so from him under threats
of prosecution for trespass. The
sum was paid under protest. He
has further been threatened with
arrest and prosecution unless he
obtains a permit to maintain
road house, regardless of the fact
that the ground on which his
house stands is mineral ground
and is so located according to the
laws governing mineral locations.
This last is of peculiar interest in
view of the many noisy protesta-
tions on the part of the protag-
onists of the system to the effect
that forest reserve rules do not
interfere in any way with the
miner"
1t will doubtless be found in
due course that the private bus
mess and private rights of cit
liens are thus being taken over
into government control at the
behest of the men who finds his
jack in practical politics. Mr..
Pinchot, for example, has now
become a large and important
functionary, having whole en-
pires of territory under his thumb
as absolutely as the czar has his
dominions and with a little army
of underlings to do his bidding.
The misrepresentation who en-
able his policies to become effec-
tive will, there is every reason
to believe, be duly taken care of
with something just as good
when their present commissions
have expired. Meantime the
Idaho man is up against a new
set of statutory offenses if he
presumes to set foot within the
wide domain that was once his
state and where he was once a
sovereign citizen. He is not only
forbidden to build him a home
and open roads and engage in
. useful industry in all that terri
tory, but if he even ventures
upon it as a traveller he forfeits
2 his rights as a free man and
, comes under the dominion of the
} whims of the ranger crew. Thus
the business and the rights OF
, citizens are whipped down thin
; ner and thinner, the business and
4 the rights of the politician grow
greater and lordlier, and as we
run more and more to politics,
spoils and graft, so does the END
draw nearer when the people will
rise up and mock and destroy
: their own institutions as they
have never failed to do when
things get to running that way.
