CEMENT BLOCKS AND BRICK.
Local Company Now Prepared to
Supply the Public with Either
Brick or Blocks Of Best
Quality.

Vuauty.
The Cement Block company of
this city has completed its incorpor.
alton and is now ready to talk bust
ness to anyone wishing either the
hollow cement blocks or cement
brick. The brick machine, which
Mr.. Oakley purchased during his
recent trip east, arrived last week
and a small lot of sample brick
have been made. They Will be suf-
ficiently cured in day or two to
show their superior quality. The
machine has daily capacity of from
5000 to $4,000 regular sized brick.
With the machine there are also
moulds for making brick of differ
cnt sizes and ornamental brick for
trimming buildings.
While the hollow cement blocks
have been largely used throughout
the east for several years in the con-
struction of residences and business
blocks, il was not until last season
that cement brick were placed upon
the market. A: Belleville, Kansas,
where the brick machines are manu-
factured, Mr.. Oakley said that a
four story business block was erect
ed out of them last year, and 1T was
handsome structure.
Builders and architects through
out the country concede that con-
crete is the coming building mater
ial. The success of hollow concrete
blocks has been firmly established,
after undergoing the most seyere
tests to which they could be put.
The principal points in favor of the
hollow blocks are: They are fire
proof; light, as compared with stone;
impervious to moisture; a thorough
protection from heat and cold, as
the air chamber between the inner
and outer walls prevents the trans-
mission of moisture and proves an
effective blanket against the ele-
ments; they will Withstand greater
pressure than any other known
building material. In the large
eastern cities eight, ten and fifteen
story buildings are being erected of
the hollow cement blocks. This Is
convincing evidence that concrete
mas passed the experimental stage
for building purposes.
The Montpelier company is pre-.
pared to manufacture either blocks
or brick, equal in grade to those
made anywhere in the country
Competent judges have pronounced
the blocks in the Downing hotel
building to be of better quality than
the blocks made In Salt Lake or
Boise, and this season they will be
prepared to make even q better
grade of blocks than those in the
hotel building
The company is composed entire
| ly of Montpelier men, who have IN
vested several thousand dollars IN
the machinery and ma .erial, and the
Examiner feels that those who 1n-
tend building this season should
give the company fair opportunity
to furnish estimates ON the cost of
construction, with the cement brick
or the hollow blocks. The company
now has quite number of orders,
but as the capacity of the plant is
limited. those contemplating using
concrete should not wait until thes
are ready to begin construction be-
fore placing their orders.

The railroad employees are particular.
~ strong against any such scheme and
they have not been backward in putting
their views before Congress. They ar
que that Federal interference with
rate making will take away from the
railroads the greatest part Of their con-
troll over their own propert y, The
workmen believe that. under the gov
ernment-mBde rates, the railroads will
earn less money and that the wages Of
their employees will have to be reduced
They are afraid that the roads, not be-
ing able TO make their own rates, will
rot be free 20 make contracts as to wa

NEWS OF


CREsCENT-The activity among
leasers on the Riley fraction and Cres-
cent claims the psst week has been
lively. The marvellous placer find close
to the Riley has caused a scramble
among the most successful leasers In
the camp for ground to work on the
royalty basis. The Manhattan Leasing
company has taken leases 2 and 3 and
will nut men to work at once. The
company is working on No. 4 and has
encountered fine lodges. This leasing
company has also acquired lease No. 3
on the Crescent. where a shaft on the
ledge is already down ten feet. On No
Z on the Crescent the leasers are sink
ing on a ledge that also cuts No. s and
runs into the Skookum. where assays
have been obtained of $500. The com
pany is en%countering fine ore in their
shaft on No. s. but no assays were made
the past week.
DExTER.-'Here is a world of ore"
That was all Dick Raycraft would say
as he stood in the midst of a number of
leasing dumps yesterday on the Dexter
claim Union No. 9. Here is a world of
ore. We've got it six feet wide on thir-
teen, the same on twelve and on eleven.

Evans are hosting the good stuff from
the same ledge" The men are working
at ffty-two feet on thirteen. They have
six feet of ore and only one wall. The
/, ore averages $41.S0 to the ton. On
twelve the men at thirty-eight feet are
in $50 ore and on eleven, the work is
going on at twenty-five feet in $50 ore.
In each of these shafts, but one wall
has been located and the indications are
that the ledge is a wide one.
COLE wEDGE.-The leasers on the
property of the Gold Wedge are meeting
with excellent results. Some of the
finest ore seen in the camp has been
found on the surface and some leaser
will open up a ledge before long that
will turn all eyes in his direction. On
lease No. 10, w. Kern made a rich
strike a few lays ago, and as work con-
tinues the ledge widens and the values
increase. The is sinking a
shaft on the Nellie Gray on a true fs-
sure vein. With depth the walls are
stronger and the values more reliable
and richer. On No. 6 lease the men are
i'm good values.
STRAY DOG.-A twenty-ton ship
ment of ore was made last week from
the Dron lease No. I on the Stray Dog.
George Dron and S. f. Vermilyea went
to the sampler to take notes on the run
and when they return a good report is
expected from the shipment.
