MINING NEWS IN BRIEF
FROM NEARBY DISTRICTS

of mines in the Station district, near
Newsome, was a caller at the Mining
News Office Wednesday. Mr. Smith
had with him two samples of ore from
the Georgia, one raw sample and one
baked sample. He reports everything
moving along nicely in the Station dis
trict, all the big properties working a
force of men and good ore being uncov-
cred.
On the surface of the Georgia prop
erty are indications of ledge five to
six feet in width, and the ledge has been
traced for about 5000 feet. The ledge
throughout carries more or less lead
sulphide with telluride. Samples that
assayed as high as $500 have been
treated. 1t is the intention of the com
pany to run the tunnel in this winter to
gain 130 feet depth.
Anaconda Mine.
This company has nine men at work.
A 1OOO-foot tunnel is part of the work
planned for this winter, 500 feet of
which is now completed.
On Pilot Knob.
George F. Mackey who located an ex-
tension of the Georgia on the Knob a
short time ago, is getting good results
in his development work. He has
opened cut 49 feet in panning ore.
Newsome-Leggett Creek Placer.
James Surridge, manager at New
some and Leggett Creeks Placer, reports
the company had a good run of fifty
days the past season, and that every
thing at the property is in shape to in
sure excellent returns next year. Sur

But for the activity around the shop
and the machinery plant on the Buster
mine and the appearance of several men
at work in the timber, there is nothing
on the surface that would Indicate to the
visitor that extensive development work
is in progress on this property. But
the fact is there are just as many men
at work as there were two weeks ago,
but all the work is now under ground
and the men are working in three shifts.
The most Of the labor is employed in
constructing the raise, though a large
part of the station room was formed in
the starting of the raise. The raise
will be about twenty feet high at pres
ent, or just high enough for the derrick
to be used in constructing the shaft. 1t
will later be extended to the surface.
Thunder Mountain Repairs.
The mill at Thunder Mountain, which
has been stamping for several weeks on
what has been reported to be good ore,
was closed down Wednesday of last
week. 1t has been found that the boiler
hasn't the capacity for the full battery,
ten stamps. A new and larger boiler
will be installed. Good ore is still being
found.
Working on Snowstorm.
Joe Coverly bought supply of grub
the first of the week and went out to
start extensive development work or
his Snowstorm property on Red Horse.
The Snowstorm has an excellent show
ing in copper and gold, and one of the
best power sites in the district.

HOW PLAN OPERATES
GOOD Fellows" Often Selected Instead
of Men Who Understand Work.

Here is chunk of wisdom from
an eastern publication, which
should be read and digested by
all stockholders in mining COM
panies:
Why do mining companies that
have good properties invariably
experience such difficulties and
so many setbacks before getting
on a paying basis?. is most nat
ural question, one often asked by
the investor and prospective mine
owner. There are indeed few of
the successful companies of today
that did not have a severe strug-
gle for existence at some time in
their youth, and perhaps were
closed down one or more times on
account of financial difficulties, or
dissatisfaction among their own
erS.
Of course, the aim and end of
every company is to establish a
dividend paying mine. To bring
this about a vein of ore sufficient
in size and richness is the first
requisite. Then, after the cap
ital necessary to properly develop
the prospect is assured, comes
the point on which hinges the
future of the company. Three
fourths of the failures in the min
ing field can be traced to this one
factor-improper management.
Large bodies of ore are to be
found in many districts that are
practically untouched, although
years ago elaborate expert re-
ports showed that thousands of
tons of ore were ..'in sight," and
careful estimates SIS to the cost of
extraction and reduction showed
a handsome balance on the right
side of the ledger; and yet, after
a few months, or possibly years,
of development work. the
propositions have been aband-
EOned.
The selection of the manager
of the mine is usually considered
mere matter Of detail, not at all
difficult so long as the one select
ed is known as a good mining
man who has had some expert
ence in a mining country. Too
often a failure of what was a
most promising venture can, be
directly traced to greenhorn
manager who was a good fel-
low," spent his money Cor rather
the eompany's) freely, and al
lowed the mine to run itself unit
the treasury was exhausted. Il
takes years of hard knocks anc
plenty of active experience tt
make a capable mine manager
and it seems unwise, indeed, tt
attempt to educate a new man a
the risk of failure from inexperi
ence.
The old miner, who has endured
the exposure, cold and hunger in
cident to frontier life in mining
country, seldom meets with fail
ure which is so often the cas'
where an untried man. perhaps
capable business man in othe
lines, is placed in charge OF ope
rations where rich values exist
but which are in a short time sus
pended on account of the lack O
desired results. Failures are to-
often on account of the man, no
the mine.

Other Newsome Properties.

Harry Cone and P. r. Kelsey, two
prominent mining men of the Newsome
district, came out last week for brief
stay, says the Grangeville Free Press
Mr.. Cone is connected with the Little
Giant mine, though he has been en-
ployed lately with the Montana, as has
also Mr.. Kelsey. They have been
erecting trestle $50 feet in length to
carry two pipe lines. and both mines
have been the scenes of some good i'm
provements lately. Mr.. Cone will re-
turn to Newsome, but Mr. Kelsey has
gone to Spokane on a short business
trip.
Mr.. Cone reports that game is espec-
tally plentiful at Newsome and vicinity
this winter. Cougar and deer are very
numerous. He says there are three
cougars that have been around the camp
all fall. Fred Franklin, miner there,
recently killed two deer with one shot
from 3O-3O rifle.

Miner Writes of Prosperity Shown
on Different Properties.
MUCH WORK BEING DONE
Many Claim Owners Have Uncovered
Rich Bodies of Ore.

The following items concerning
properties in the Orogrande dis
trict are furnished the News by
a miner in that district. The
correspondent promises this
paper an article each week, on
what is being done on the differ
ent properties in the Orogrande
district:
The Winner Group.
Several months ago Jack Hin
ton obtained tunnel contract on
the Winner property, situated on
Summit Flat, four miles west of
Orogrande. This property is
owned by the Winner Mining
company, j. E. Kennedy of Ros-
ALA, Washington, being manager.
There are nine claims in this
group, the Winner, Posey and
Glenwood being the principal
ones. An immense vein of dyke
and quartz ore 100 feet in width
is being opened up in this mine.
The strike Of the vein is north
west and southeast. From forty
feet of this vein an average value
of 81 per ton in gold has been OBJ
tanned. Pockets Of rich telluride
ore in the form of sylvanite has
also been found. Samples from
some of this ore assayed as high
as $1,000 per ton in gold and
silver.
Mr.. Hinton's contract calls for
$50, feet of tunnel. Since he OBJ
taiiied the contract he has been
pushing the work steadily ahead
with a force of men, and is now
in over half the distance, 450 feet.
In addition to this he has erected
several cabins and a blacksmith
shop at the mouth of the tunnel.
This tunnel will be the main
working tunnel of the mine and
will attain a depth of $50 feet on
the vein.
A gasoline engine, blower and
pipe have also been installed tc
furnish air for the tunnel. The
development Of the mine is to be
carried on under the supervision
of Mr.. Hinton. He is one of the
pioneers in this district and is
interested in a number of mining
properties. He was the Original
LOCATOR of the Oregon mine, which
lies north of the Winner.

Fort Collins, Aug. 2l.-Injunction
proceedings are being heard in the
district court in which the city of
La Porte seeks to restrain the Gree
ley water company from running a
pipe line for the city water supply
through La Porte.
There has been considerable frIc-
tion between the Greeley people and
the citizens Of La Porte, the latter
desiring to buy water for city use
from the new Greeley pipe line COM
pany and have been refused.
The Greeley people say that be-
cause they refuse to sell La Porte

to throw obstacles in the way of the
construction of the new pipe line.
The Greeley people claim that
they have only enough water for

is being built will be thirty seven

industry more than any other gov
erned by the relation of demand and
supply. 1t is a thing about which
there is no guess work as to the sup
ply available, not only for this year
but for the years a decade ahead. II
trees are not on the ground for the
immediate supply they cannot be put
there. If, on the other hand, they
are there, they may be burned away,
50 that in no case can the supply en-
ceed that which is calculated upon,
though it may fall below: hence

This year the demand has far out

the UNITED States all but eleven
show an increased demand for lum-

meaning is that something must be

Horse and Auto.

S. j. Peery has no kindly feeling
for the auto. and judging from his
own story he has legitimate kick
coming. He is the owner of nice
driving horse that has but the one
fault, that it fears the go-devis, and
will climb a barb wire fence or a
telephone pole at any time when 1t
meets one. Mr.. Peery wants to go
to Estes Park aud wants to drive up
there, but he says he will have to
pay car fare for himself and wife, as
he will not dare attempt to drive up
the canon road where automobiles
are more numerous than fishermen
on the banks of the Thompson.
Really, things are coming TO such
a stage between the owners OF auto
mobiles and the owners of horses
that 1t will not long be safe for both
to travel the same road. Horse
lovers are not going to give up their
good animals for the mechanical
contrivance, and the autoist who
has once felt the exhilarating tingle
in his veins occasioned by As mile
an hour gait over country roads will
never want to give up his machine.
So far the latter seems to have the
best of the deal, as he can certainly
drive horse and horseman from the
road without the least trouble.
