While it is this function of the Rus

accusations of exploitation of the Rus

economic life of the agricultural
masses. but that their extreme compc-

benefit the agricultural worker. both

There is well-founded tradition
that the original "Ilarp OF David
lies buried in the hall of Tara in Ire
land. and many of us remember the
first lines of that good. old Irish song

Now hangs as mute on Tara S walls as
if that soul were fled. ~
That "there is more truth than
poetry in the lines of the song re-

sulting various authorities who have
made ancient lore Il study and who
have given us the benefit of their re-
searches. We know that very many
of the old Irish names of places iii
the Emerald Isle are of Hebrew orr
gin. and we also know that the harp
is the national emblem of Ireland.
1t must be taken for granted that
the ten lost tribes have been found in
the Anglo-SaXon race; that we are

or SaXons.

According to the latest Russian OIL

they constitute l1.6 per cent. OF the

the Jew in Russia is much more

THINKS GRANITE WOULD
STAND BOOMING
Colwell Takes bond ON Property
Believes District Will Show
Up strong.

That the Granite district is not re-
ceiving the share OF booming which
should be given is the belief of A..
b. Colwell. of the engineering firm
of Half e. Colwell. Following visit
to the district during which he and
his brother, w. y. Colwell, took bond
and lease on the Stinson group of
W. ID. Campbell. he is enthusiastic
over the general outlook for mining.
At the Stinson, which is the old
property of Mr.. Campbell and from
which a goodly amount has been sent
10 mill by the owner in the past,
there are two strong veins showing.
About 500 feet of work in three tun-
nels and In wines and raises has
been done. The ore is in quartzite
formation. II pans freely. In Col
wells belief the two veins, ] II feet
to feet In width, converge into one
mother vein with depth, as their
trend Is toward one another. He has
had no assays yet but believes they
will warrant taking the property
over.

erty now being worked by Mr.. Camp

The latter will start up again today
after a short shutdown occasioned by
repairs 10 the mill dam. A strong
vein enclosed in rhyolite and lime
stone is being worked at present. The
workings now consist of tunnel 100
feet in. a Wine of about 10 feet and
10 foot raise. The ore shoot is
about ID feet in length. Ore from
the dump pans freely AT the mill an
average of about 500 ton is OBJ
tanned from the plates. But little OF
the metals escapes. as the gold is
particularly bright grade. The last
brick sent to the mint carried $3.50
to the ounce The silver content is
small. about 80 cents to the ton be-
ing the result of the last cleanup.
In speaking of the Grace Gold
group. Mr.. Colwell said that while
but little work has been done, he be-
lieves il to be a good property. Show
ing of yellow metal has been found
in several places.
He expressed himself unwilling at
present To name the figure for which
he had bonded the Stinson and de-
clined to talk further about the prop
erty, saying that until the assay re-
ports had been received he would
know little about his future action.

BIaINE TUNNEL VALUES
NOT As HIGH As IN SHAFT
iselieved. However, With Greater
Depth Under Surface Gain
VIII Occur.

Materially increased in width but
CARRYING less value than the ore in
the shaft would warrant expectation
of il the latest development at the
Blaine tunnel. which a short time
since tapped the vein which was folr
lowed in the shaft from the surface
for about 900 feet. This Is the state
ment of W. b. Graham. who returned
from the district on Friday evening
bringing with him samples from the
tunnel strike.
The vein which was gone through
in the tunnel proved to be about five
feet in width, more than six inches
wider than in the incline shaft. IL
looks to be the same ore, the same
clay gouge following IT from the sur
face to this point. The ledge is much
softer and will allow work at about
half the cost of the shaft extraction.
In the shaft the lowest assay yet
had is $l4. while the average holds
around $25 to the ton. Several hun
dred tons have been milled at good
profit in the past. The tunnel sam
pies when assayed did not show the
values to be as large as had been
hoped for by the company, but this
Is not discouraging. They have a
good distance to go before they reach
the point where the incline will tap
the tunnel. In the meantime the
vein will be followed and 1t is be-
lieved that the values VIII increase.

NEW WORKERS INVEST IN
LANE CITY AND BLACK
HORSE CLAIMS-TO PUT
MILL IN OPERATION.

After concluding purchase of por-
ton of the Lucky Boy group of claims
in the Blaekhorse district and the
Duzette group near Lane City, and
making preparations for the erection
of a coneentrator of 100 tons capae-
ity at the Lucky Boy mine, George w.
Meyers, president. and Louis Simon,
general manager of the French Amer
lean Mining Co, left yesterday for
their home in New York. They will
return about May 25.
The purchase of the DuZette group
was completed Friday, when Richard
A. Riepe and John Steele gave bond
and lease to them for a figure said
to be very fair. The Duzette carries
values up to 80 per cent copper and
to $14 in gold. There is also a
good showing of lead ore.
At the Lucky Boy arrangements
will be made for traction engine
and train which will handle rs tons
daily from the concentration to the
railway. Until the Steptoe plant is
ready to handle lead ores, the prop
erty will ship to Utah.

morning the shaft was practically
filled with water, as in the case of
the Bonanza. AT the same time the
shaft of the Chairman was left prac-
..cally dry. My theory in both in
stances is that they drifted into
contact which served to keep the UNI
foreground channel in its bed and so
weakened it that the flow broke
through. AS to new ore formations
usually found with an established

ly an encouraging sign with the mines
of the district when water is struck.
