Alb years, With production sta
tionary at the present volume of
output for the next decade, $4-
600, 900, 600 will be added to the
worlds supply of gold.
tits predicted if an increase
should be consummated it will
have the effect of lowering the
rate of interest and advancing
the value of realty, agricultural
products and manufactures, It's
effect is already impressively felt
in the current upward tendency
of prices and lowering of interest
rates the past decade. If phe-
nomenal production were to pre-
vail for a long period present val
ues would be cheap as compared
with the higher prices that would
prevail. Commercial stability
could be better maintained by a
retrogression of gold production
rather than any further annual
increase in the output of the pre-.
cious metals.

Geo. v, Harrington was in Dixie Sat
urday and Sunday. While there, Mr..
Harrington went out among the mines
and learned something of the magnitude
of the work that is being done in that
hustling camp this year. He reports
there is great activity on all the prop
critics in that district, and the best thing
of all is the feeling of optimism that
pervades the camp, every last miner
feeling that he is located in great gold
producing region and that when the
camp does start off it will start right.
1t appears the Dixie camp, along with
the other good mining camps of central
Idaho, has suffered the reign of the
wild cater" and is now entering
upon an era of legitimate mining.
A short note what some of the prop
erty holders in Dixie are doing will be
of interest to miners here:

Surveyors Complete Work as Far as Kooskia and
Are Now Running to Lewiston.
1T LOOKS LIKE THE ROUTE
Argued That Mountain Survey Has Been Satisfactory Northern Pacific
VIII Have to Get Move on Now.

q press dispatch from Kooskia to the
Lewiston Tribune gives information
that appears to prove the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul railway company
will. select the Middle fork of the Clear
water as the route for the road across
Idaho,
Engineer Hayes and his crew of sur
veyors who have been engaged for sew
eral months running a line up the Mid
die fork and it's tributary stream, the
Locksaw, to a connection with the sur
vey run from the Montana side, have
reached Kooskia and have begun run
ming line down the Clearwater from
that point. A camp has been estab-
lished on the north bank opposite the
town of Kamiah and it is understood it
will be maintained there until the work
now in hand is completed. The survey
ors state that they are going to run
line down to Lewiston, but Engineer
Hayes has made no statement as to his
work.
The fact, however, that the surveyors
have taken up the work between Koos-
kia and Lewiston seems to clearly show
that the mountain survey has proven
satisfactory and that the Lewiston
route has been adopted. 1t is argued
that if the Middle fork survey had re-
suited unsatisfactory the work below
Kooskia, such as is now receiving atten-
ton, would not have been taken up.

Those who hold the view that the Mil
waukee and Northern Pacific are allied
in the construction of the line across
Idaho,. express an opinion that the cut
off will tie onto the present Clearwater
line of the Northern Pacific at point
opposite Kamiah, thus eliminating the
necessity of the construction of bridge
over the Clearwater should the cutoff
connect with the Northern Pacific this
side of Kamiah. The Milwaukee survey
follows the north bank of the Clear
water, while the Northern Pacific fol-
lows the south bank from Kooskia to
Kamiah, when it crosses to the north
bank. The surveyors, however, state
that their work to be continued on
down to Lewiston.
If it is true that the Middle fork is the
route that has been chosen by the Mil
waukee next year will see scramble
on the part of the Northern Pacific to
build nearer the mining camps in this
district. So long as the Northern
Pacific is the only road in this part OF
the state it is sure of all the business,
but when competitors enter the fielc
the old road will be anxious to furnish
better accommodations With the Mil.
waukee running down the Middle fork
the Northern Pacific will have to extenc
it's Grangeville or Sites line if it wants
any of the business in Orogrande, Dixie
and Elk City.

THUNDER MOUNTAIN
Walter Rutledge Has Just Returned
From a Visit There. y
TELLS WHAT HE SAW
Thinks the District IN Time VIII Be One
of Idaho's Good Ones.

Walter Rutledge has just re-
turned from the Thunder Noun
tain and Ramey Ridge section of
central Idaho. He says things
are booming in there, especially
in the Ramey Ridge section.
"On the Florence A group, one
of the big things of the camp
owned by Merit, Vance & Cas-
SELL" said Mr.. Rutledge, "six
men are working, running tun-
nels on the vein. They have one
large, well defined vein in the
granite of a brown oxidized
quartz with an average width of
six feet. They have an ore shoot
opened up for a distance of $50
feet. Free gold is plainly visible
to the naked eye in many pieces
of the quartz, but the owners are
conservative and claim an aver
age of $1,000 per ton in gold.
This property has all the ear
marks Of making a mine, and the
owners are helping the cause
along by doing the work in the
proper place,
"On the adjoining claims, the
Mildred group, the owners,
Messrs. Thomas and Huzog, are
engaged in developing the same.
This is a parallel vein to the
Florence and is also an excellent
showing. Their vein is an oxi-
died quartz about 10 feet be-
tween walls and has an average
value of SIP per ton in gold.
ION the Gold Slide, the property
purchased by H. Fryor last winter,
a force of men are busily en-
gagged in putting up cabins for
the accommodation of the men to
be employed the coming summer.
A mill has been purchased by this
company and will be installed
during the coming summer.
"On the Little Gem group,
owned by Lynch, Mahon & Steph-
enson, a force is engaged in de-
veloping a we'll defined vein from
three to four feet wide, which is
exceptionally high grade and will
probable average SIS per ton in
gold.
"At the Hot Foot Davis prop
erty, recently purchased by the
Pennsylvania-Idaho Co., for S35, :
900, dirt is certainly flying.
About 80 men are employed on
the wagon road which they are
building, and in the mine. This
company will install a large mill
ing plant this season. Across
the creek James Hand and VIM.
, Robinson are at work upon g
, splendid showing. They are now
in $50 feet on the vein, and have
vertical depth of $50 feet. They
have large we'll defined veir
about 100 feet in width which
. will average SIS per ton in free
e gold.
< Numerous prospectors are
: daily coming into the district, anC
r it certainly looks like the making
S of a big and permanent camp
says Mr.. Rutledge. Il have
O never seen a district where there
are so many we'll defined vein'
that carry pay values on the sur
face, and the people out herr
should certainly make bid TO
that trade which amounts to quit
an item"

WORLD GOLD SUPPLY
Volume Of Precious Metal Increased
Immensely Past Decade.
WHAT THE FIGURES TELL
Increased Ratio of Production viii
Lower Interest Rates.

OOlu LIDS dlW dyo UCCll d OCdllu-
ard of commercial exchange and
recognized as universal money.
It's fluctuations of value are mar
row and all appraisals are meas
ured by this precious metal. Gold
was mined in Africa in ancient
times and was plentiful in the
days when King Solomon built
the temple at Jerusalem, where
the sacerdotal appointments.were
manufactured of gold.
The latter half of the nine
teenth and the first half of the
twentieth centuries promise to be
known in history as the age of
gold. Production in the past
score of years of gold has ex-
ceeded any like period in mining
for the precious metal. The year
1905 was featured by an output in
all parts of the world of $400, 000-
600. In 1896 the production
reached $2O2, ,251, 900.
The learned French savants,
Leroy-Beurleau, estimate that the
worlds commercial needs, could
be supplied with an annual out
put of $3.50, ,000, 900 of gold. This
volume could be producad in the
Transvaal, with a possibility of an
equal amount being mined in the
United States. The production
of 1905, when the output reached
$400, 600, 900, would nothave been
anticipated a score of years ago,
The discoveries of gold in Alaska,
the Northwest Territory and the
Transvaal have opened rich and
apparently inexhaustible sources
of the yellow metal. Production
in decade of gold has doubled in
volume, as in 1895 the output ag-
gregated only 5000, 600, 900.
Twenty years ago the worlds an.
nual output of gold totaled $107.
600, 1000. Should the ratio of in
crease be maintained for a decade
the output of gold in 1915 will ag.
gregate $80O,OO0,000.
THE FUTURE.
1t is impossible to make predic
tions in mining operations, al
there are undoubtedly limitations
to the expansion of production o.
gold. 1t is probable that new
, discoveries may materially in
, crease the output of this none
! tary metal. Alaska, Colorado
: California, Nevada, the Transvaa
and Australia are saturated witt
f gold. Discovery and develop
ment of rich deposits are anon!
: the possibilities of the gold out
put industry. The rich deposit
: of Mexico and South America re
e main to be exploited, while Rus
sia and Japan have only PARTIAL.
r developed their gold fields.
If gold production for a decad
e should remain stationary at $40C
900, 600 per annum it would full
supply all commercial demand 70
an increased medium of exchang
and normal consumption in tn
. fine arts. 1t is estimated b
