HAS FAITH IN
ELK D|STR R|cT
Former Owner of the Buster
Mine Is Putting Money
Into the Camp

~As an evidence OF MY faith in the
entire Elk City camp, l have purchas-
ed the Congress group of five claims
which are an eastern extension of the
Buster mine, and nov have a crew of
men developing the property" said S.
w. Smith, the discoverer of the Buster
mine, who recently solG the property
to Fred Bradley and associates.
THE camp, as a whole, is very active
| this year, and at the present time
/ there are IN the reighbUrhood of 300
men working on the various proper
ties The demand for men has not been
satisfied at any time during the sea-
son, and with the construction of the
road soon to commence, where 100 men
will be needed, it is safe to say that all
operations Will be greatly embarrassed
during the coming fan and early win
ter.
"The ten-stanp mill is now at Sites
flor the Buster mine, and it is expected
this will be installed and in operation
tby November I. There are 1900 tons
Of ore on the dump and until the mill
lis started the company will not extract
ore. All of this ore has been taken
out of a necessity in the development
Iof the mine, and with the thorough
system of tunnels and slopes the i'm
mense ore bodies are now standing in
Ia position to be taken down by the
thousands of tons when it is desirable
to commence taking the ore from the
mine. 1t is expected this feature OF
the work will be commence simultane-
ously with the operation of the min
and = is my understanding the ore
w Il he sorted and the mill used in
.handlinq the more OK x.dized portions.
~" laving the sulphide ore to the
side 1t WI soon be determined whcth-
er this character of ore exists in suffi-
cient quantities to warrant the CON
struction of railroad or electric line
into the camp and in The event it does
it is understood movement for trans
portation will be made at once.
There will be number of small de-
velopment mills taken into the district
this fall, and large number of East
ern mining men have visited the dis
trict during the summer and expressed
their intention Of returning for the
purpose of taking hold NJ properties in
the Elk district.
what central Idaho needs is the de-
velopment of its mining resources, and
If several camps are opened up in a
legitimate and permanent manner the
growth Of the country and the develop
ment Of the other resources will be as
sured"

LOSES
MANY DOLLARS
Delinquent Personal Taxes
Are DifSiCult to
Collect

The records of Count itor Gift
ford show that a considei aOIe sum is
lost to the county each year in delin-
quent taxes on personal property which
cannot be forcibly collected after they
become delinquent.
According to the statute the assessor
has right to collect the personal
property tax at the time the assess
ment is made and upon ten days
notice has a right to seize and sell
the property at any tirAe before the
amount becomes delinquent but the
sum uncollected has ranged from $500
70 $3,500 during the past thirteen years
and was last year the heaviest during
the entire period.
The following report of delinquent
taxes on personal property since 1902
was taken from the records today.
