THE COMMERCIAL CLUB.

p Elsewhere In this Issue of The
Tribune will be found a call for q
meeting of the Caldwell Commercial
Club, next Monday night. This meet
] ing should be attended by every
member of the club, as business Of
great Importance is to be transacted.
The POSTSCRIPT of the letter states that
the resignation of the secretary has
been in the hands of the executive
committee for long time, and init
mates that action should be taken.
The Tribune does not know how the
Commercial Club feels, but we are
convinced that 1t would be bad policy
to permit Mr.. Gowen to resign at
this time. The Commercial Club has
on hand important business In sever
al different lines. with which Mr..
Gowen Is more familiar than any one
else. 1t would be sad loss Of time
and energy to get new man now,
even II the new man. were just as
energetic and capable as the present
secretary. Our present officer 10 In
touch with the affairs of the club. He
knows what is going on and where
It Is going ON. He knows what
should be done and how 1t can be
done. 1t would be hard indeed to
find another man who would do as
well. even II he could. as Mr.. Gowen.
We think, though, that Caldwell
has now reached size and the Com
mercial Club dignity that will af-
ford the secretary some clerical as
sistance. A good, capable man
should be hired to do the actual work
under the direction Of the secretary.
Y No competent man can afford to do
this work for fun. It takes time and
hard work to write letters. meet
strangers, and show visitors over the
town. There should be some one
empowered to do this work. Mr..
Gowen cannot afford to give his en-.
tire time and attention to the Com
inercial Club. No other business
man can afford 1t either. Yet to dc
the work properly and thoroughly,
one man must devote his entire time
to 1t. ! The thing to do In our judg.
ment, is to retain Mr.. Gowen as sec
rotary and provide him good. com
petent clerk. In this way we will
have the benefit OF Mr., Governs
knowledge, experience and energy
and at the same time relieve him Of
quite q burden.

Caldwell now has an opportunity

Gated from every standpoint. It has
the unique reputation of being the
only dollar for dollar town In Idaho.
There are some others. It's true. but
they are small villages. Caldwell. as
the leading commercial town OF Ida
I no stood pat. Caldwell banks paid
out money all the time. This fact
should be thoroughly andpersistently
advertised. 1t reflects great credit
upon our banks, but still greater
credit upon the town. 1t Is a greater
/ thing than most Of US realize. Cald-
wells opportunity Is now. Our soil
and climate are as good as our repu-
tation, which is not discounted any
where. Our resources are boundless.
Our opportunities are immense. Cald-
we'll is today the biggest town of its

Club, ] wish to draw your attention
to the work OF the organization, and
what is cut out for it. and to also
draw your especial attention to the
fact that whether or not you are
business man, or an employee OF
the business man or simply a resi-
dent of the town, you cannot help
but be vitality interested in the we'll
fare of Caldwell. your home, the
place where you hang up your hat
and get your maintenance.
On the advice of your committee,
we have entered upon a campaign
of advertising Caldwell and imme-
date vicinity, and we have been SO
far successful that we have caused
the outside public to sit up and take
notice that Caldwell is on the map,
also that the neighboring towns are
organizing to follow and overtake US.
Up to this writing we have upward
OF so families located, here from our
exertions, and inquiries by the score
desiring information. The fact Of
the matter Is that we have simply to
keep the ball rolling, or stop and
allow the surrounding towns to get
what We should have. and hear them
crow over US.
Your secretary does not mind the
work, but he feels that he Is entitled
to the support of the club, and re-
spectfully asks that each and every
member make 1t q point to attend
the meetings that are called for and
up to now have been but sparcely at
tended. This is simply good natur-
ed negligence on the part of the
members, and they should help out
with their attendance and IDEAS
just as much as possible. 1t is work,
good work. and we cannot AFFORD to
let these opportunities slip by
Aside from this advertising campaign
there are several home matters to
be considered and these must be tax.

your attention to a meeting for next
Monday evening, December 18th

to be present at this meeting, and
oblige.

The Mining Review is informed that David Kennedy and w. H. Mcintyre, of Salt Lake, have recently purchased the Bonelli iron mine in Lincoln coun- ty, Nevada, situated about two and a half miles east of the property of the Gold Butte Mines company. The ob- ject in securing this property was for the purpose of furnishing iron ore for fuxing purposes for the new shelter to be built on the Colorado river by the Grand Gulch Mining Company. Upon making a second examination of this iron proposition Messrs. Kennedy and Mcintyre were most agreeably surprised when it was found that the ore goes high in its copper contents. The ledge is strong one, two feet of which assays B per cent in copper to the ton, while eight feet will go about 9 per cent, the entire body of ore av- eraging in the neighborhood of 15 per cent. The ore is an iron oxide going about 45 per cent iron. The copper also exists as a red oxide, and this probably accounts for the failure, in the past, to recognize the property as copper bearing. Work will soon be- gin in the development of the Bonelli property.

Miners Strike at 8isbee.

This week several hundered miners went on strike at Bisbee, the alleged cause being the use of a working card by the companies, which is objected to by the miners recently organized into a branch of the Western Fedora tion of Miners. They claim that a union man is not employed by the companies in the district and that this discrimination is unfair and unjust to those who belong to labor organiza- tions. The mining companies have issued a statement that the strike is in the direction of unionizing the camp and that they will close down tight be- fore they will recognize union domi- nance. Bisbee has been an open camp, no union organization having been organized there until lately, al- though many union men were employ ed in the mines. Recently the com panies began systematic wedding out of men, which, it is claimed, was done for the purpose of getting rid of the union sympathizers. The camp en- ploys about five thousand men in the mines and when the order was given to strike about one thousand walked out
 It is claimed that many of those work ing are in sympathy with the strikers and that the camp will be demorali- zed by the strike. Bisbee has been one of the quietest mining camps in the west, no trouble whatever hav- ing occurred there in the past twenty five years. Until recently low wages were paid, but the Copper Queen con- papy treated the men in the best pos sible way, giving them all the com forts it was possible to obtain in a camp in this territory. The high price ot copper and the we'll known fact that there existed an uneasy feeling among the men over the wage question decided the companies of Bis bee to raise the wages of miners to the same scale as that paid in Nevada and Montana on the first of April.

Superintendent Blackwell, of the Treasure Hill Mining Company, this week opened up splendid body of silver ore in the winze in the north tunnel on that property. He reports that the ore streak is ten inches wide and the average of the ore is 346 ounces silver. This streak is widening out steadily, the increase being more than eight inches in the past ten feet. The company will soon have holster on this vein and is preparing to work it on a large scale. The mines owned by this company are among the best properties in the county and all that is required to make them big produc- CTS is development below the water level. A pumping plant will have to be put in to handle the large volume of water, but this expense can be met by the sale of water to mines that are less fortunate in this regard.

James Morgan, of Los Angeles, an old time Comstocker. is looking over the mining field south of Kingman with his friend, Dr. John P. Davis. He is of the opinion that the mines south of town will create a big stir in the mining world as soon as their richness becomes known. The veins are large and well defined and carry big milling values. Water for all purposes is to be found in the mines, while their proximity to the railroad adds much to their value.

George Aiken came in from Hack berry last Thursday evening. He re. ports having struck a fine body of gold ore in the bottom of an old abandoned mining clam, at Music Mountain. The shaft has b. en sunk to depth of sixty feet and there the old owners aban- doned it. In doing some work in the bottom of the hole Mr. Aitken con- cluded to crosscut the footwall and there struck gold ore that gave an average assay of 1908 to the ton. The vein is four feet wide and carries good showing he has ever seen in that sec- tion. He will return and do consid- erable work on the property.

The new company now handling the old Blackberry mine is pumping out the old shaft and preparing to sink a new shaft on the hill above, which is designed to tap the vein below the old workings. The water can be drained from the new shaft through the old works, which will be of great cpnven- fence in the work So far everything has gone on with a rush and vim that is good to see. Old timers who have known the Blackberry mine in the past are of the opinion that big ore will be encountered in the new work within short time.

At depth of 60 feet in the Holy Moses mine, held under bond by Dr.. F. J. Crane, of Denver, a splendid body of extremely rich gold ore was cut few days ago.
