MINING COMPANY IS
ORGANIZED
1t Will Operate Near Victor
Where Rich Strike Has
Been Made.

Preliminary steps were taken yester-
day toward the organization of the
Sundown Mining company, which will
operate a group Of five claims, located
five miles southwest of Victor, says
the Missoulian. In this district is the
Ore Finder, in which a recent strike of
rich gray copper was made. On the
200 foot level, where a five foot vein
was encountered, the ore runs from
to 20 per cent in copper and from 200
to 700 ounces IN silver. The Ore
Finder is now shipping ore regularly
and the work OF development is being
carried on as rapidly and thoroughly
as p. ssible.
The Shutdown claim adjoins the Ore
Finder and the other four claims are
contiguous. The surface showing on
these claims is identical with that on
the Ore Finder and the trend of the
country indicates that the Ore Finder
vein will be encountered at depth.
The Ore Finder body is we'll defined
and is said, by those who have seen it,
to be true vein. 1t is the purpose of
the new company at once to sink
double compartment shaft to depth
of 300 feet.
Those interested in the new company
are w. N. Ellis and G.. H. Garnett, Jr.,
of Victor, and J. M. Price, M. r.
Rutherford, E E. Hershey and others

Hamilton Girls State
Champions
Captured All the Prizes in the Final Debate
at Missoula on Monday Night---Miss
Robertson Gets the Gold Medal.

The final debate of the Montana
High School Debating league, held
Monday nigh, at the Union opera
house in Missoula, was won by the
team of three young women represent
ing the Hamilton high school. The
contest was one of the best ever con-
Quoted on Montana platform. The
opposing team from Kalispell was
well printed in the art of debate, but
was clearly outclassed by the team
from the Bitter Root metropolis. The
judges were unanimous in the opinion
that Hamilton should have first place,
and the decision was received with
eminent satisfaction by the audience.
After the decision had been an
nounCed the Hamilton team was pre-
sented with the state championship
trophy, beautiful silver loving cup
Those who compose the Hamilton
team are: Misses Grace Laws, Monica
Shannon and Annabelle Robertson
says the Missoulian.
The individual prize, the gold medal
donated by Senator Joseph M. Dixon,
was presented to Miss Annabelle Rob
ertson. To her therefore, belongs the
distinction of having won the indi-
vidual championship from all the de-
baters in Montana's 81 high schools,
one of the greatest honors that could
1>a L.
This decision was also favorable to
the audience, for the most prolonged
and enthusiastic applause followed
Miss Robertson's address. The de-
bate was so closely contested that it
was difficult matter to pick the in
dividual champion, D.t it was thought
that Miss Robertson's stage presence,
enunciation and delivery were super
ior to those of the others.
Kalispell was represented by
Miriam Fisher, William D. Mcbride
and Albert Crone, all of whom &C
quilted themselves with credit. Their
delivery was not quite as good as that
of the Hamilton speakers, and they
were not as much at home on the
stage. All were highly entertaining
speakers, however, for there was not
a dull N oment during the entire pro-
gram. The arguments of the various
speakers were followed with intense
interest.
The debate was largely attended,
