Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1907-08-10
THERE'S MUCH
RAILROAD TALK

1t appears the atmosphere on the out
side is surclarged with rumors of new
railroads to be built and that are now
building in this part of the northwest,
and it is pleasing to residents and prop
erty holders in these mountain districts
to know that Dame Rumor has several
of the new lines projected this way.
Surveying crews are numerous this
year. Elk City has been favored with
visit from two of them, but to date
their identity IS not known. The engi-
neer of one crew has made visit to
Elk City three times since the snow
went off, but who they are and exactly
what they were here for is not known
by anybody in this vicinity.
1t appears the sale of the Buster
mine here to the Bradley & Mackenzie
company has stirred up more enthusi-
asm among mining and business inter
ests on the outside than the most loyal
citizen of Elk City has ever entertained.
Wagers are freely offered, but none are
accepted, that Elk City will get rail
road before another year. 1t appears
there is strong opinion that the North
ern Pacific is preparing to extend it's
Sites line along the Clearwater to Elk
City. Surveyors have been over the
old survey this summer, and informa-
ton seemingly confirming the report
has come from contractors who are at
work on the company's extension from
| Culdesac to Grangeville.
Burlington Men in Field.
The latest rumor is that the Burling-
ton & Missouri River company has sur
veyors in the field seeking a route for
its extension from Butte to the Pacific
coast. This report comes from Kooskia,
and the Lewiston Tribune's s correspond
ent writes as follows:
1T has just come to light that a crew
of Burlington surveyors are operating
between Elk City and Kooskia coming
down the Clear creek which empties
into the Middle Fork short distance
above this place. The news was OBJ
tanned through member of the sur

To Our Subscribers.

1t requires the use of money to
run a newspaper. Ordinarily
the money should come from
those who support the paper and
are benefited by it, but in this
case the Mining News has been
paying the bills every thirty days
without making complaint.
Now we complain; the burden
has become too great for small
institution to carry. There is too
much credit on our books, and
this is call for those who have
'stood by Mining flews for
so many years, without contribut-
ing, to pay up.
We intend opening new sub
scription book soon, and before
we do it we want all accounts on
subscription settled. These ac-
counts are small to the debtors,
but collectively they'll pay lot
of freight" for the publisher.
We are speaking directly to
YOU Mr.. Subscriber-no matter
where your place of residence.

address their letters to>George E.
Hamilton, Editor and Publisher
All subscribers whose accounts
are for six months or longer will
have to pay collector after a
reasonable time has been given.

Some of the Experiences Of Those
the Service IN Northwest.
HUMP is A HARD ROUTE
Says Inspector Linn of the
Spokane Division.

In erecting monuments to our
heroes, our soldiers, our sailors
and our fremen, we should not
forget that army of men which
supplies US with our daily mail"
G. D. Linn, inspector in charge
of the Spokane division, which
includes in its jurisdiction the
states of Washington, Idaho, Ore
gon and Montana and The terri
tory of Alaska, said this while
going over the official reports in
the Spokane postofice. He adj
ded:
I'm the territory covered by
the Spokane inspection Offices the
United States mail is carried in
every conceivable manner. In
Alaska reindeer have been
brought into. service because of
the necessity to cross great bar
riers of ice and snow. Eskimo
dogs are used on the long coun-
try runs. By railway, steam
boat, electric lines, stages, on
horseback and in every other
manner except that of being
transported in airships, the mails
are taken to residents and dis
patched all over this continent,
the Orient and Europe
''The United States govern
ment has recognized Spokane as
one of the strategic places in this
country from a postal standpoint,
and it is fast bearing out the con-
victions. Several years ago one
of the Is inspection stations of
the mail service was placed in
| Spokane, and the Northwest and
Alaska were allotted to this sta
ton as the field to be covered.
Fourteen inspectors are employed
in the territory.
In the Buffalo Hump district
and Thunder Mountain country
in Idaho, south of Spokane, the
horses and their drivers and rid
ers are equipped with snowshoes
in the winter, while in the north
ern parts Of the territory all
means of conveyances are en-
ployed. Mail carriers in the
Rocky mountains and in the
wilds of Alaska pass through the
most rugged parts Of the country

, offices. Feats of heroism enacted
i by carriers in these wild districts
i are frequent, but seldom re.
corded.
I'm one case, brought to the
notice of this office, the driver o1
one of the dog trains in the
Yukon country stopped during
the night at one of the cabins or

GOES ON CRUISE.
Revenue Cutter Training Ship Itasca
With Cadets Aboard.

The United States revenue cutter service
training ship Itasca. which was re-
modelled from the United States naval
cadet training ship Bancroft, sailed
yesterday from Baltimore on an ex-
tended cruise which will last nearly
two months. and during which several for
eign ports will be visited. The Itasca has
aboard the first and second classes of rev.
enue service cadets. and under the COM
mand of Capt. Reynolds. she will first visit
New York. and then she will make a stop
at New London. From the latter port she
will shape her course across the Atlantic.
and after stopping at the Western Islands
she will go to Gibraltar, Marseille and
Fillefranche will next be visited by the
cadets and the ship will start from there
homeward. On the return trip the Madeira
Islands will be visited and stops will be
made at the Bermudas and other ports in
the West Indies before the Chesapeake will
be reached some time during the latter part
of next September.
AS stated. the Itasca was formerly the
United States gunboat Bancroft, built with
view of making her the practice ship for
cadet engineers of the Naval Academy, an
idea that was abandoned. and the vessel
was sent to foreign service She proved
herself capable vessel, but becoming too
small for the demands upon her was trans
ferred to the revenue cutter service.
Changes costing nearly 100000 were made
in the vessel to fit her for the duties of the
cadets.
She was built at Elizabethport N j., in
1893. On her trial trip. after being general
ly overhauled at Newport News. she made
a speed of 1928 knots per hour, better time
than she made when first built. While at
the shipyard two new water-tube boilers
were installed, engines taken down and
parts renewed. an entire new electrical out
fit. including searchlight. was installed and
sanitary system was placed in first-class
condition. New forecastle. main and poop
decks were laid and new piiothouse and
galley were among the changes.
New fore and main masts. the former
rugged as a topsail schooner for aloft prac
tice. new standing rigging, bilge keel to
minimize rolling combine new features
added.
The comfort of the cadets has been con-
sdered and everything required for con-
venience has been installed.
