WORK COPPER MINE.
J. A. Coverly Has Made Strike That
Shows Rich Values.

J. A. Coverly arrived in camp
the first Of the week after
visit of several weeks with
brother in Spokane and a busi-
ness trip to Lewiston. Mr. Gov
erly had with him some fine
samples of ore which he secured
from the Snow Storm group.
The property from which the
specimens of ore were taken was
discovered by Mr.. Coverly last
fall and shows excellent values in
gold, copper and silver. 1t is the
first mine in this district to show
high copper values and Mr.. Cow
erly thinks he has one of the best
propositions in the country. A
test of the ore shows S1S to $50
in copper, $40 to $40 in gold and
$5 to $15 in silver. About 100
feet of tunnel work has been
done on the property and a large
amount of development work is
to be done this summer.
Mr.. Coverly while in Lewiston
conferred with the Idaho Reduc-
tion Works relative to employing
their new process at the mine for
extracting gold from the base
ore.

Your inquiry concerning g
the effect of the Lacey bill which
has lately passed the lower house
of congress is not only perti-
nent but a very interesting one.
The defeat of this bill in my
judgment is vital to every citizen
of the state Of Idaho. 1t comes
to us with the specious and in
genious argument that it opens
up the permanent and temporary
reserves to agricultural settle
ment. This argument is wholly
false. The law of March 3, 1891,
empowered the president to es-
tablish forest reserves on the
public lands containing forests.
Under this law President Cleve-
land on the 22nd day of February
1897, established two reserves in
the state Of Idaho, the Priest
River and the, Bitter Root.
Shortly after the Inauguration of
President Mckinley it was
brought to his notice by the
people of Kootenai county that a
number of home builders were in
the Priest River forest reserve,
and that others wanted to go in
and make homes. President Me-
Kinley's sympathy was ever with
the home builder. An American
home to him was one Of the
sacred things Of the world, and
his encouragement was always
extended to the building of new
ones. While he believed in the
family and the children of the
family he wanted to see it in a
home of its own. In consequence
he invoked the old maxim, that
the power to create carried with
it the power to destroy, and tenn
porarily suspended the Priest
River reserve, and under that
suspension Kootenai coun ty
gained in the neighborhood of
one hundred new farms and over
one hundred citizens and tax
payers.
On the 4th day Of June, 1897,
congress commended that act by
the passing of a law reposing in
the president Of the United States
the power to revoke, modify OF
suspend" every forest. reserve in
the United States, when in his
judgment to do so, would con-
serve the interest of the public
and expressly provided both the
means and the procedure of
eliminating agricultural Ian d
from the Two reserves already
established. That is the law
today. So that the Lacy bill is
not needed to open up the forest
reserves to agricultural settle
ment.
Congress in that act Of June a
1897, went farther and cut deeper
1t said in another section of the
act:
No public forest reservation
shall be established except to i'm
prove and protect the forest
within the reservation, or for the
purpose of securing favorable

conditions of water flows and to
furnish a continuous supply of
timber for the use of citizens of
the United States; but it is, not
the purpose or intent of these
provisions or of the act providing
for such reserves to authorize
the inclusion therein of lands
more valuable for the mineral
therein or for agricultural pur-
poses than for forest purposes. "
This section not only explains
and constructs the act Of 1891, but
is a plain and palpable limitation
of the grant of power contained
in that act, and this is the only
authority ON the statute books for
the creation Of forest reserves.
The preliminary Seven Devils
reserve in Idaho county incloses
practically all the land lying be-
tween the Snake and Salmon
rivers, embracing over two mil
lion acres, and there is not a
forest within its boundary under
any legitimate definition of that
term, and no man in the possess
sion of a grain of common sense
would say that it secures favor
able conditions of water flows. !"
1t does, however, contain in
the neighborhood of million and
a half acres of the finest pasture
land in the northwest, and past
ure land the world over is agri-
cultural land. The inclusion Of
this million and a half acres in
this reserve is plainly a violation
of the act OF. June 4, 1897. The
agricultural lands included in the
other forest reserves of the north
ern part of the state are not so
extensive as in the Seven Devils,
but the mining land included in
them is equally as extensive if
not more So 1t may be said that
while agriculture and forestry
are antagonistic, mining and for
estry are not. That is, not the
question under discussion here.
The question is whether or not
4 the law has been violated in the
creation and establishment of
these reserves by the inclosure
within them of either agricult-
ural or mineral land. The in
clusion Of both are equally pro-
hibited and therefore every re-
serve, every addition to a reserve
created or preliminarily created,
including within its bounds either
\ mineral or agricultural lands,
since the passage Of the act of
June A, 1897, is contrary to that
act and illegal. The Lacey bill
admits that fact, otherwise there
would be no excuse for its exist
ence. The whole purpose anc
intent of the bill is to legalize
these illegal reserves.
Through the courtesy Of Con
gressman French the bill is now
before me. 1t provides:
That the secretary of agri
culture may in his discretion
examine and ascer

STOP SHIPPING COAL
Thomas A. Edison Sees Great Revo-
luton for Commercial World.
ELECTRICITY TO DO WORK
Generate Power at Mines and Transmit
1t Greet Distances.

The statement Of Mr.. Thomas
A Edison, that it is cheaper by
far to transmit electrical energy
over wire than it is to freight
coal over a railroad, IS so well
known that the wonder is that
we cling to methods admittedly
ancient, says Ores and Metals.
Electricity, properly applied,
can be utilized where any other
power is used. Why we will
transport coal hundreds of miles
by rail, and then drag it up heavy
roads, and suffer delays and an
noyances is a mystery, when the
same power can be delivered
more quickly, surely and safely
over a wire, at less expense, and
just as certainly as by the other
method. In discussing this mat
ter, Mr.. Edison says:
I'VE are groping on the verge
of another great epoch in the
worlds history. 1t would not
surprise me any morning to wake
up and learn that someone, some
group of the 100000 scientific
men who are investigating all
over the earth, has seized upon
the secret of electricity by direct
process. and begun another revo-
luton in human affairs. 1t can
be done. 1t will be done. | eX-
pect to see it before l die. The
first great change. in the produc-
ton of electricity will abolish
carrying coal for that purpose, F"
he said. Instead of digging
gross material out of the earth,
loading it on cars and carrying it,
say 500 miles, there to put it
under boiler and burn, and so
get power, we shall set up plants
at the mouths of mines, generate
power there and transmit it
wherever it is needed by copper
wire. 1t is preposterous to keep
on putting coal mines on wheels.
1t is too clumsy. 1t is too costly.
There is no necessity for it. 1t
is easier to carry eolecular vibra-
tion by millions of waves a second
than freight cars full of crude
matter. We can ship 100000
horse power over the wire quicker
and more economically than we
can send the equivalent over a
railroad track. We must elimi-
nate the railroad altogether from
this problem. What's the use of
it? We don't want coal anyhow
It does us no good to look at it.
What we want is the resultant of
the utmost energy that can be
produced. And there is no sense
in carrying around millions of
tons of raw material like coal
when we can get a product de
livered to us by wire. Now the
truth is that it viii cost a third
less to transport electrical power
by wire than carry it in the form
of coal in railroad cars. Assume
the price of coal to be 81 at the
mouth of a mine, and assume the
freight to be $1.90. Now, we
can turn coal into electricity al
the mine and convey it by wire
by less than half of the cost Of
the freightage Of coal. -
The electric power lines already
erected and in operation, success
fully, prove this matter conclus-
lively, as far, at least, as they go

SENATE 70 ioeo3 ON BILL.
Philippine Tariff Measure Is to Be
Taken Up.

Washington, March 5. - Senator
Lodge, chairman Of the committee on
the Philippines, has decided to make a
motion that the senate discharge the
committee from further consideration
of the Philippine tariff bill and that it
be taken up for discussion. Under the
rules Of the senate a motion OF this
character is debatable. The senator
proposes to make an argument in
favor of the bill and ask that action be
taken by the senate concerning it. He
does not intend, however: to precipi-
tate action until after the statehood !
bill has been disposed of. The means
suggested provide the only way IN
which the bill may be brought before
the senate in view of the action of the
committee in defeating it. Opponents
of the bill declare that the senate il
overwhelmingly opposed to the pas
sage of the bill and that Mr.. Lodge:
motion if made will be met with e
counter motion TO lay it on the table
The sentiment of the senate the
would be determined.
