It was ten years ago Monday,

Republican, since William Nc
Kinley was inaugurated Presi.
dent of the United States. In
that decade there has been more
material development both ma.
tionally and industrially than in
any twenty years in the history
of the country. The volume of
business has increased many
fold and the wages Of the work.
ingmen have increased in pro-
portion-not only the daily wage
but the number of days Of EN-
ployment have increased until
there is work for practically
every man every day in the week
This improved condition has APP
piled particularly to the farming
community, for everything the
farmer has to sell has increased
in price from so to 800 per cent.
The common people have dollars
where ten years ago they had
dimes and quarters. In fact
there is no class of people within
the bounds of the United States
whose condition is not much bet
ter than it was ten years ago.
Yet, in the face Of all these facts,
the existence of which no one
denies, there are a good many
people who persist in advocating
the policies of government that
we're in quite a large measure
responsible for the conditions
which prevailed for several years
prior to ten years ago. The man
who has a family depending on
him for support should weigh
wen the conditions as they exist
at the two periods and make a
mental memorandum thereof.

GOLD IN INTERSTATE
Good Values in Copper Are Associated
with Gold

Manager Oscar Wallace of the
Interstate mine at the head Of East
Nine Mile creek, has never had a
sample of ore assayed for gold be-
cause he did not suppose it was
worth while. The ore is a mixture
OF chalcopyrite and galena and he
has been content to learn it's copper,
lead and silver value.
A few days ago he shipped a 100
pound sample to one of his associ-
ates in Spokane, but had no idea it
would be assayed. Yesterday he
received the assay certificates from
several samples of the ore. They
had evidently been sorted so as to
make as clean copper and lead ore
respectively as was possible by hand.
The galena ore ran from Is to 4S
per cent in lead, with II to 26
ounces Of silver and trace of gold
to the ton. The copper samples ran
as high as II per cent in copper and
$12 in gold, with only trifling values
in lead and silver.

RICH SPRING GU[CH MINES
Coeur dAlene Investment Company
Owns Central of Three Groups

TPRING gulch near Iron Mountain, Mont is the center

SUCCESS IN FULL BLAST
First Train for Over Month Reached
Mine Sunday

The Success mine and mill on
Nine Mile are both working full
blast once again. They were able
only to maintain a partial produc-
tion of late owing to the fact that
the railroad to the mine became
blocked with snow on January %
and was only reopened to traffic last
Sunday. During that period all
available cars, ore bins and every
other possible receptacle were filled
with shipping ore and concentrates
and the mill was only able to run at
a fraction of its capacity.
Manager Samuels will be able to
resume dividends next month and
new record for production for both
mine and mill will be established if
no delays in shipping operations are
experienced. The mine was the
first in the district to be equipped
with mill that produces both zinc
and lead concentrates.

TO WORK BELL GROUP
George r. Trask Will Incorporate Mon
tana Property

The Bell group of mines, between
the famous Last Chance and Tarbox
mines, three miles north of Saltesc,
Mont, will shortly be incorporated
as the Ben Hur Mining company.
Engineer George r. Trask is the
chief promoter of the new enter
prise. He expresses the utmost
confidence in it, having made a
careful inspection not only of the
Bell but of its two immediate neigh
bors.
OF these the more famous is the
Last Chance. A few years ago it
was one of the bonanza producers
of the district, though none of its
workings is over i50 let deep. II
has shipped $25O,0OO worth Of ore
that netted the owners 500, 600.
Much of the orc is said to have
netted from $1,000 to So, 500 a car.
The Bell consists of six claims
and a mill site adjoining the Last
Chance on the west. 1t is developed
by 800 feet OF tunnels and shafts.
A drift near the west end of the
ground shows four feet of good ore
in a vein 20 feet wide. Another
tunnel near the Last Chance end
line has even better showing.
Frank Bell and Richard Daxon
were the original owners of the prop
erty. They have held it for many
years.

of the mill. The company intend
to install the same system at all
their other mills in the district.
Standard. Mammoth
At the Mace mines of this COM
pany, the great ore shoot has been
proven in the lower levels for a
length Of 1900 feet. The most in
teresting feature Of the years d.vel-
opment in these deep levels has been
a gradual increase in the silver tenor
OF the ore, which now practically
gives one ounce of silver to each unit
of lead, which, with its thousand
tons per day production, means a
marked increase in profits.
This mine is developed by cross
cut tunnels to a depth of 1880 feet
at the level Of Canyon creek, and
from that level through a vertical
shaft situated at the face of a 5000
foot tunnel, 1880 feet deeper. with
levels each 200 feet. The ore ranges
from five to 20 feet wide. It has
been more carefully mined during
the past year and has produced
more first class ore than in any prev
ious year Of its successful history,
and in spite Of its great depth, it is
apparently just maturing its more
important horizons and may be de-
pended upon to continue productive
to much greater depth.
To this end the main working
shaft has been successfully lined up
and sinking recommended from the
bottom level. "A new lift has al
ready been put down 200 feet and
when sufficiently opened with the
necessary station and drifts. sinking
will again be resumed.

PAsC0E INsPEcTs ROANOKE
Federal Superintendent Makes Highly
Favorable Report

The Miner last week gave a brief
description Of the Roanoke group of
eight claims adjoining the U. S. on
Elk creek near Wardner which was
recently incorporated with an excep-
tionally strong board of directors,
among whom are James f. Nc
Carthy and James r. Smith, mana
ger and president respectively of the
Hecla company; AL Page, the well
known millionaire mine operator of
Wardner; Wilbur D. Greenough,
manager of the Snow Storm, and
George Ruggless, general superin-
tendent of the Federal company's
mills.
Richard Pascoe, superintendent
of the Mace mines OF the Federal
company, last week examined the
property and made a highly favor
able report. It shows that the
group has been considerably devel-
oped by means Of three tunnels, one
on the Sherman claim and two on
the Roanoke. The former is in 275
feet and shows four-foot ledge car
rying about foot Of mixed ore.

The face of the drift on the Ma.

ore without streak Of waste in it.
The tunnel is following the hanging
wall Of the vein and there is no sign
OF footwall, which is supposed to
be ten feet or 80 south Of the drift
The paystreak of lead carbonate
ore has widened to four feet and the
rest of the face is quartz and cop

STRIKE IN MACE MINES
Big Ore Body Broken Into on $500
Foot Level

A really important strike, but
one which the Federal company
with its usual conservatism is trying
to minimize, has just been made on
the 1880 foot level of the shaft in
the Standard Mammoth mine at a
depth from the surface Of $500
ieet, wi.ss77a in cutting out d station
IL feet OF fine ore was broken into.
Taken as a whole it il fine concen-
trating ore and muph of only rc-
quires hand sorting to be Of ship
ping grade.
The vein was supposed to be
about 20 feet from the shaft SO the
discovery of ore is taken to mean a
marked widening of the ledge. The
other wall of the vein is not in sight
and will probably require consider
able crosscutting to reach it.

SMUCCLER AND VIRGINIA
Revenue Mine at Burke Has New Name.
Looks Like Winner

A property in the Gorge gulch
section of the Burke district that is
worth watching is that of the old
Revenue company which has recent
ly changed its name to the Smuggler
and Virginia Mining company, on
account Of the old name being also
claimed by an Osburn company.
1t owns group of five claims ON
the east side of Gorge gulch between
the Trade Dollar and Moonlight
and is the Revenue company referred
to in another column that is driv-
ing the long crosscut tunnel through
the Trade Dollar ground to reach
its own ledge.
The ledge has been opened by q
4OO-foot drift tunnel which shows
a ledge from four to six feet wide in
the early part of its course, but
which shows width Of no less than
10 feet on the face. The vein is
highly mineralized all the way and
shows SO much carbonates and gal
ena that investors should keep a
close watch on what transpires in
the lower crosscut. The crosscut
will strike the vein about 600 feet
deep and 500 feet more Of work will
be required to tap it.
Frank Murphy, one Of the largest
local shareholders in the Hecla COM
pany is the moving spirit Of the
Smuggler and Virginia company.

The Tamarack mine will resume
shipments as soon as the condition
Of the roads will permit. This, ac-
cording to Manager Eugene Day,
may not be for a month or six
weeks yet as the snow neal the mine
is very deep and soft.
The work of Strengthening out the
old tunnels, retimbering the work
ings and improving the ventilation
of the mine by upraises, etc., which
has been so long in hand, is now
nearly completed and Of late quite
a lot of development has been ac-

Roanoke shows for the length Of $50
feet a ledge three feet wide, samples
from which averaged 81 per cent
lead and 10 ounces af silver. As
stated last week two cars Of orc were
