MINING & POWER co,
Organized by Elk City Men fqr
Development of Mines and
Power.

The Queen Mining & Power
Company, of Elk. City, is the
latest addition to the ever grow
ing list Of companies organized
to exploit the marvellous mineral
resources of the Elk City Basin.
The company was organized by
Messrs Patterson, Harsh Bros,
and Ayotte, of Elk City and DR.,
Murphy of Spokane, Wash. The
company is organized under the
laws of Idaho, with a capitaliza-
tion of 100000 shares non-as-
sessable with a par value of 81.
The organization was completed
here Sunday the 18th by the
election of the following officers:
D. Patterson, president; Phil
Ayotte, vice president; ]. B.
Harsh, secretary; ]. L. Harsh,
treasurer.
Active development on sub
stantial scale is planned to begin
April 1st. A 300 foot tunnel,
which will tap the ledge at a
vertical depth of $50 feet is
among the principal features of
the development work out lined
to the MINING News by Mr..
Patterson.
The property Incorporated is
known as the Queen groun, COM
prising three claims, and is sit
uated about three miles north
east of town on the east side of
American river. The group is
three claims in length and is
traversed the entire length by a
ledge, which on the surface has
a width of Z feet. The principal
work done thus far consists of a
60 foot shaft. A cross-cut run
from the bottom of this shows
the ledge to be 9 feet in width.
The average values on the sur
face were rather low, but at the
deeper level the average values
exceed $18 per ton.

>. w. SmlCn VINO has UeeH
carrying on development work
on the Buster, which is under
bond to one of the strongest
mining companies in the United
States and is said to be the
strongest in the world, brought
in a so pound specimen of mag
nifcent ore from the newly dis
covered run of high grade ore
which was encountered in the
liver level the latter part of last
week. Mr.. Smith who is the
vendor, took up the work of de-
velopment where MI. Albert
Roberts, the company's engineer
lay down from an aggravated
case of cold feet, and carried the
drift ahead about three feet, en-
countered new ore, which ap-
parently is fully as good if not
superior to the first run en-
countered, which gave average
returns across % feet of about
$40 per ton.
The new discovery is about 100
feet further along the vein from
the first run of high grade ore
encountered on the lower level
and while the intervening 100
feet is not rich, still it is by no
means barren as it is said to
average about SIS per ton, thus
presenting a continuous ore body
of about 230 feet in length which
will average. over $40 per ton,
This average it is reasonable to
assume will be increased sub
stantially by the second run of
high grade ore discovered, and
as relates to the extent of the
pay ore the end is not in sight by
any means, as 100 feet further
5long the vein another or perhaps
the same run of ore crops out on
the surface. The natural divis-
sion of the two grades of ore as
it occurs in the vein on the lower
level as developed is about as
follows: Run No. l is 130 feet
in length, 20 feet in width aver,
age values about $40; 100 feet Of
low grade ore exceeds 20 feet ir
width average about SIS; rur
No. 2 length unknown width Il
feet average values about $40.
The ore is iron sulphide II
y character and even at the present
depth which is 225 feet, the oxi
dation is quite extensive through
out, and shows much. visible
native gold.

IDAHO COUNTY MINES
Report Of State Mine InSpector---A
Review Of the Happenings
' for the Past Year.
WARM LAKE DISTRICT.

At the property of the Trap
pers' Flat Mining Company, near
Warm Lake, a large force of men
was employed during the entire
year of 1906 in mining develop
ment and mill construction, and
a large reserve of good milling
ore has been blocked out with
the quiet, extensive underground
development accomplished.
A saw mill was installed and
extensive camp equipment in the
way of buildings put up, together
with a modern, up-to-date 10
stamp mill and aereal tramway.
This new plant was expected to
be put in commission on January
l, 1906, and the mine with which
it is connected is said to afford
resource of $40 gold ore that can
not be exhausted in several
years steady operation.
BUFFALO HUMP.
This well-known gold quartz
district experienced one of the
dullest years of its history, all
though important development
was made on several of its prop
critics.
Jumbo Mine The Jumbo mine
continued in operation most of
the time during the year and
made quite a large yield of free
gold, but, SO far, the manage
ment seems to have been unable
to successfully treat the concen-
trates obtained from the ore,
which means the difference be-
tween a dividend paying PROPOSE

not appear so seriously base but

other parts Of the state by this
method.

know how large. The Dewey
will increase their mill 10 stamps
making 20 in all. They have the
timber, but will have to build a
road down Monumental about 7
miles.
The trail at and above the
mouth Of Monumental has had
some work done on it this winter
which will help a great deal in
early spring, as it put the bridge
across Big creek in good shape.
The trail down Crooked creek
for about a miles is not very
good, but would not take a great
deal to put it in shape to make
good travelling. AS from Elk
City to Dixie and Campbell's
Ferry, Chamberlain Basin and
down Crooked creek is the lowest
and best route possible into this
country and the only way that a
winter road would almost keep
itself open and the only way a
wagon road can ever be kept
open without great expense:
We have horses on Crooked
creek this winter and there has
been bare ground off and on all
winter on the south hill side and
the horses are as fat now as they
were last fall. From the head
of Crooked creek to Chamber
land basin is almost a fiat
country. If the timber was cut
out you could drive a wagon to
within four miles of the mouth
of Crooked creek, and not much
grading from there down. That
would bring you to the mouth of
Monumental creek, 22 miles from
Roosevelt, and also tap the
Ramey ridge country.
/ Crooked creek l think will
make mining camp. We have
been working on the Snowshoe
all winter, two of us, and have a
fine showing. We have the ledge
cut in four places and a short
tunnel on it and we have never
found a piece of ore that would
not pan. Samples of 6 feet over
the face going SAL. Assays from
SAL to $205. Ledge from 6 tc
10 feet, and we do not know
what we have in the tunnel as
we have uot cut the ledge yet,
but the ore is the richest we
have struck.
Geo. Stonebraker also has &
, fine showing here, lying south
and west of the Snowshoe about
1000 feet, having from 5 to
feet of fine ore, that can be
traced 1000 feet and samples $35,

Jumbo mine, Buffalo Hump, was
over from Saturday until Mon
day. 1t was the pleasure of the
writer of this article to accom-
pany Mr.. Olson in a trip of in
spection through the Crooked
River mine and mill. Mr.. Olson
is a successful miner of a great
many years practicle experience,
and a pioneer in this part of
Central Idaho. He expressed
himself as profoundly astonished
at the magnitude, completeness
and system of the proposition.
And so it is with all who come
seeing is believing. Crooked
river basin has countless millions
of tons of ore, of as good a grade
as they are now working on.
This basin is blessed with un-
rivaled natural facilities and who
can say when these natural fa-
cilities are utilized to their utter
most, but that our future will be
a glorious one.
At the Umatilla all is activity.
The main Schlosser tunnel is ad-
vancing at the rate of seven feet
every "a hours, and is now ir
over 300 feet, and about one hall
completed. 1t is a splendid
piece of work, and does Prof,
Brewer great credit. At tunne
No. 7, forty-one feet of high
grade quartz and zone matter
has just been cross-cut, which
Prof. Brewer says will average
SIS in gold per ton. Specimen
rock is abundant, one specimen
in particular being thoroughly
saturated with the royal yellow
stuff.
The Twin Butte Co.'s mair
tunnel is now in 185 feet and is
just starting into dixie matter ol
a very fine appearance. Every
feature of the work that this
company is doing is proving the
surprising extent and magnitude
of the ore zones of this basin.
