INSPECTOR BELLS REPORT

The annual report of Robert N.
Bell, state Inspector of mines, was
received throughout the state some
days ago. The report is complete
and reflects great credit on the Off
cial who Is responsible for it. There
is no doubt about the work of COM
piling mineral reports of Idaho being
too great an undertaking for an en-
gineer, no matter how competent,
unless with a great deal of assist
ance, and The Miner is informed that
the inspector of mines is not afforded
many assistants.
The law requires that the report be
in print within IS days after the
first of the year, and this means that
work on it has to start before the
close of the year 1t is dealing with,
and the later news may sometimes
disclose facts slightly at variance with
previous figures already in print and
consequently Interchangeable.
The Miner feels like congratulate
ing the state on having such capable
official as Mr.. Bell and believes that
his report shows up the resources as
completely as it is possible to have
them handled
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-05

There is no mining district in the
country which gives greater promise
than the Occur d'Alenes. Year by
year its merits are being proven and
as greater depth is acquired richer
and larger bodies of metal are being
discovered and the outlook for the
future already bright, grows actually
brilliant.
1t is difficult to estimate how
much capital is invested in mining
in the Occur d'Alenes but whatever
the amount it is probable that,
great as it is, it will be doubled in
the next few years, and each season
will add to the list of producers and
dividend payers.

NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES.

The protective tariff does not con-
fer special privileges upon individu-
ais, although it does upon all the AM
erican people. It's duties and charges
rest alike upon all who come under
its provisions. Rockefeller and Har-
riman must pay as much duty on the
goods they bring into the country
from foreign lands as any other citi-
zens must pay. Neither they nor any
other man can get special rates or re-
bates on tariff duties from the
United States government. They,
therefore, can gain no advantage over
their competitors in business by
means of the tariff; and, SO far as it
is concerned, all are placed on the
same footing and must bear the same
burdens

BOOMING FOR TAFT.

The Taft Republican club is a live
and effective organization despite
the attempted humorous illusions in
The Times, which are for the evident
purpose OF discrediting the club. But
republicans are not swayed by such
ridiculously palpable fabrications and
the club Is causing great deal OF
enthusiasm. Already over so names
have been enrolled and no effort has
been made to get signatures. Only
the names OF those who have taken
enough interest to attend the meet
ings are on the role.
The following resolutions have

DAY VS.. ROCKEFELLER.
The awful struggle is on.

The awful struggle Is on
The seconds have left the ring and
with bated breath the people of the
United States have settled down to
watch the outcome of the greatest in
dustrial struggle the world has ever
seen.
In crisis like this the battle of
the redoubtable Jack the Giant Killer
and the Giant Blunderbore takes on
all the appearance of tinhorn pre-
liminary.
For what seems like centuries the
terrible grip of the Standard Oil octo-
pus has been slowly but surely tight
ening round the throat of American
business industry.
Champions of the people have
come and gone.
Time after time the castor has
been SHE'D into the arena and as regu-
larly the shyster has been cast out
broke.
Little men like Heinze tried it.
Heinze is looking for a job now.
Operators like the Guggenheims
are reported to have been counted
out before the gong sounded the close
OF the first round.
But champion of the people has
sprung forth in new quarter

of the Wallace Taft Republican club,
pledge our united efforts to further
the candidacy of William H. Taft for
his nomination and election to the
presidency of the United States; be it

nomination of someone other than
William Fl. Taft by the republican
national convention, we heartily
pledge our support to that nominee;
be 1t further
Resolved. That 1t is the sense and
purport az This organization that it
is formed solely for the pur-
pose of uniting sentiment on ma
tional issues and has no bearing what
soever on future action in state,
county or municipal issues; be it fur
ther
Resolved, That cordial invitation
be and hereby is extended to all re-
publicans to join in this movement
The point on which The Times
made such play, viz the suggestion
from an interested source that the
presidents policy be endorsed except
so far as it related to the enforcement
of the forestry service, is probably
open to little explanation The in
PRODUCTION of such resolution would
actually be vote on the candidacy
of Senator Hepburn and that is not
the object of the Taft club. This is
formed purely for the purpose of sup
porting the candidacy Of Mr.. Taft
for the presidency and will continue
In this position until the nominating
convention in Chicago, with the ex-
ception, possibly. OF the addition of
a vice presidential candidate.
After the convention, If Mr.. Taft,
by any possibility, should not be the
choice, then the club will be reor
ganized in the interest of the nomi-
nees for president and vice president
and every member will be expected
to do his utmost to secure the cleo
ton of the republican nominees.
After the Chicago convention will
be time enough to take up senatorial
matters and that is the reason the
suggestion to give vote of approval
to Senator Hepburn by criticizing
President Roosevelt was received
with silence by the Taft club, and
why no motions to this effect was
made at the meeting.

THE COEUR D'ALENES


The Miner has been optimistic
about the seasons outlook right
through and it sees every reason
now to rejoice in the stand it took
With the resumption Of operations
at Butte and the blowing in Of the
Washoe smelter complete change
of sentiment has been undergone by
even those who were most pessimis-
tic and now almost every person
agrees that before the present
month has passed into history the
Occur d'Alene district will be once
more among the busiest spots on the
continent.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-05

been adopted without dissenting
voice:
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-05

The position Of the Miner on the
proposed association of mineowners
has been the subject OF much COM
ment during the week and so far
every person who has communi-
Gated with this office has been
favorable to the view taken by this
paper.
Whether this association is formed
or not and whether it is along the
lines already laid out or not the
people who are not engaged in
mining, but who do make their
livelihood through the efforts Of the
mine makers, should give their
support, moral and financial The
Occur d'Alene country is the great
est on earth. There are many who
do not realize it now, but stay with
it few years and you will see it
become generally recognized.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-05

During the past three months,
while many Of the larger producing
properties were closed, development
work has been vigorously pushed in
both producers and prospects with
the result that in this period there
were more important strikes Of ore
made than in the two years preced-
ing. Had such strikes been record
ed during a period OF stock booming
the market would simply have gone
wild and stocks sold from double to
quadruple their normal prices. In
the interest Of legitimate mining it
is a matter to be sincerely thankful
for that the markets have been too
stagnant to be seriously affected by
the good news and investors in these
properties and all adjoining pros
poets will gradually feel the benefit
by the greater ease in interesting
capital while the district at large
will also feel the results.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-05

While there has been some Wild
eating in the Occur d Alenes, it is
nothing in comparison with what
other camps have to answer for and
as the district grows older there is
less Of it. OF course there will al
ways be irresponsible persons at
large with desire to separate the
unsuspecting from their money but
the operators are anxious Ito crush
this out and reliable information is
always easily obtainable from many
sources if the investor seeks it.
The Miner is daily in receipt Of
requests. for information and is
always glad to furnish all the in
formation at hand to its sub
scribers.
