AWHIDE, Oct. 15.-Since the filing
of last week s dispatches strike
of Importance has been made at the
lcasehold of the Burns Hill Mint on the
estate of the Rawhide Coalition Mines
company. In the north drift on the 90
foot level the miners have opened up
1S inches of ore which assays $4S.40 the
ton. The ledge in which it is contained
shows the full width of the drive and is
fair milling grade, exclusive OF the
section before mentioned. The ore IS
strongly similar to that being mined at
tho Trnett lease ON Coalition ground.
The lease adioins the King Hill and
Burns leases, thereby offering the prob
ability of the same ledge prevailing
within their lines. The chief import
ance of the find is, however, found IN
the fact that it was made in the west
saction of the Coalition estate at a
point where but little in way of ore
had hitherto been unearthed.

Secretary Garfield yesterday an
nounced that he would grant no eX-
tension of time to settlers on the
Minidoka irrigation project in Idaho,
who fail to make their construction
payments as required by law. There
are many settlers whose first annual
installment of $3.50 per acre fell
due Dec. /. 1907. but who have so
far failed to pay up. They are. al
lowed one years grace under the law
but the secretary has served notice
that all such settlers who fail to make
their payments on or before Dec
next will be declared delinquent
their entries will be cancelled and
they will forfeit whatever payments
of any character they may have here
tofore made. This does not affect
settlers who have paid up as required
by law. The secretary declined to
grant an extension of time, because
to do SO would establish a bad prece-
dent, but more particularly because
there is urgent need of more funds to
complete the extension of the Mini
doka project SO that water can be
supplied to settlers who are already
located there
