precious metals in this mining
district has the mining outlook
been so fayorable and prosperous.
Since May 22nd, 1877, when the
first mining locations were made
in this district, at which time the
Trippe and El Gro (uow Golden
Rule) mines, owned by the Hills
boro Consolidated Mines we're To-
Gated, the district has produced
millions in gold and copper. Not.
outstanding theimmAnsa produc-
ton of the mines, the progress of the
camp has been repeatedly retard-
ed and disabled by succession OF
failures on the part of various
mining institutions. However,
conditions have changed for the
better. Deep mining and extern
sive development is the watchword
of the day. The past three years
have developed a new era III the
line of mine development. Strong
corporations have invested the
camp, VIZ: The Sierra Consoli-
dated Gold Mining company, the
Empire G. Miuing & Milling CON-
pany, the Ready Pay Reduction
company, and the Hillsboro Con.
solidated Mines.
The Sierra Consolidated Gold
Mining company, during the past
three years has expended hundreds
of thousands OF dollars in improve
ments on the Snake and Cpportu-
nifty mines, in the way OF new
shafts, hoists, roads, one large all
steel mill and vast quantities OF
machinery, all of which ls prepar-
atory to the extensive development
OF the mines of which there is a
group of twenty claims,
During the same period OF time
the Empire Gold Mining company
has expended large sums of money
in the development of its mines.
Up to a few weeks ago the CON-
pany's 2O-stamp mill was kept
busy treating the ores OF its mines
However, in order to make extern
sive changes in the mill that insti-
tuition was closed down In ord
to make the desired alterations.
In the meantime development work
in the mines has been In active
progress, while only "dead work"
has been prosecuted, there are now
several hundred tons ~ ore On the
dumps and at the mill awaiting
! treatment. In the Bonanza, alone,
it is estimated there is enough ore
blocked ont and in sight to keep
the mill running for several years'
Further evidence OF the company'f
confidence in the mines is the fact

Doubtless the terms of the agree
ment provide for the mining of GER
tain amounts of ore each year from
the International company's pro-
Perties, but they have not been
made publicSyet.
People who could shed some
light upon the finer points of this
agreement between the steel cor
poration and the harvester people,
are 10th to talk of the deal of pres
ent.
Another feature of the arrange.
ment- said to have been made bv
the two gigantic interests is one
which provides that the foreign
agents of the steel corporation land
the facilities for foreign sales of
that concern are acknowledged to
be OF the very best; even better than
the harvester company's)s shall exert
themselves toward the sale of the
International company's products
in foreign climes.
The International company sells it's
products all over the world, and
their foreign sales organized will
be maintained on the same plan az
at present; the efforts of the Steel
corporations men will be merely
supplementary.

AT the meeting of the Commercial
Club Wednesday evening, the first
meeting of the body for several
weeks, the election of officers for
the ensuing year engroesed the at
'tention of the assemblage, the off,
cers.elect beingzas follows:
President-E NJ. Tredway.
Vice.President-W. E. Hannaford.
Treasurer-Joseph Roman.
Secretary-A. +. Bickford.
Retiring Treasurer Levin made
report of balance of funds in his
possession of 1885, and retiring
Secretary Cuppernull reported
that he still had possession of
$24.OO belonging to the organizat ton
which had not as yet reached it's
proper destination, giving the Club
a proper standing with a balance
of $62.85 on hand.
The report of the secretary also
showed large number of members
in arrears on dues, and a motion
that statement of such arrearage
be mailed each delinquent pre-
vailed.
A letter from the Duluth Busi-
ness Mems Exchange relative to
the new tax amendment and asking
for financial aid in seeking re-
count of the vote On same, was read,
and the provisions of. the law dis
cussed. In this discussion some
members contended the law as
amended, if interpreted literally,
would prove hardship to the cities
of the range which depend in a
measure upon the taxation of mines
in the corporate limits for local
finances. This view was not held
by Ransom Metcalfe, former editor
Of the Virginian, however, he ex-
pressing the idea that the amend
ment is right and proper and that
the movement for recount and it's
proba BILE defeat comes from the
steel corporation and other mining
interests, through the Duluth com
,mercial body. Mr.. Metcalfe- also
expressed the idea that all mineral
rights should belong to the public,
and that he believed such, rights
would eventually be restored.
The secretary was instructed to
seek such information as might be
obtainable relative to the new law,
and make report thereof at the next
meeting.
The question of the desired
change in the law permitting of
vote on county seat, without NAM
ing a temporary county seat, was
also brought up, on request of
Senator Vail, and the secretary in
structed to seek assistance of other
range commercial bodies in franz
ing such law.
An auditing committee, composed
of Messrs. Chalmers, Metcalfe and
J. Shanedling was appointed to ex-
anime the books of retiring officers,
and the next meeting of the club
called for Wednesday evening,
January 80.
