FIRMS SEIZED OLD BUILDINGS
Held Prior Claims-Closed to Pro
tect Interests.

The controversy between the Lew
iston-Clarkston Fair association and
the Potlatch Lumber company and
zimmerman Bros, relative to the
claims Of the firms for materials fur
nished the association last year
reached crisis this morning when
workmen were instructed to tear
down the fair buildings to satisfy
the claims Of the plaintiff firms.
The claim of the two firms
amounts to approximately $1,000,
and lien upon the fair buildings to
protect the claim was filed during
the summer. Recently the buildings
were sold at sheriff's sale to satisfy
this lien and we're bid in by the
plaintiff companies. The work in.
augurated this morning is within the
authority OF the sheriff's bill of sale,
but according to the court decrss all
buildings must be removed within 80
days after the sale was made.
I'VE are acting entirely within
our right" said H. f. Daffer, local
manager OF the Potlatch Lumber
company, who is in charge OF re-
moving the buildings I'VE have
hesitated to take this step because
We did not desire to embarrass the
INSTRUMENTATION fair. but as it
has been impossible to reach sat
isfactory agreement such action has
become necessary to protect our
rights.
After the new association was
organized last winter we called upon
the individual members of the board
to ascertain what provisions would
be made to handle our account, blu:
could receive no definite assurance
that the bill would be paid. The as
sociation has apparently ignored Us
and at no time when the bills Of the
old association were being discussed
have we been called in. Some of the
individual members of the board
have come to us and endeavored tC
ascertain what action we expected
to take, but at no time has the claim
been treated in a manner satisfac-
tory to our firms
I'VE do not want the buildings OIL
| the lumber that Is in them, but W,
do want some assurance our bill will
be paid and unless we secure thi'
assurance this amount must be re
| covered by the action started thi
morning. The amount of the bill
has amounted to practically a LOAF
of SO much money to the fair associ
alton and without security The 10
cal banks would not extend such
loan and We do not feel that W
/ should be expected to do more thai
good business methods suggest. Al
that We want now Is the assurance
that our money will be Forthcoming
after the fair and II the director
will give US security to that effec
the men now engaged in tearini
down the buildings will be called OF
in Is minutes"
The first work commenced by tn
plaintiff companies was the remova
of the bleachers at the east END @
the grandstand. Three men are EN-
ployed in the work and when see
this morning stated their instruc
tions were to commence on the mar

were removed The bin OF sale Is

ATTACKED AND Tackled.

A Bacon township farmer had been
bothered for weeks with large flock
of blackbirds. Seeing them perched
on his barn one morning he ran to
the house for his shot gun. Quickly
proceeding to load 1t, he discovered
that he was out of shot. Grabbing
up paper of tacks he poured the
contents into the gun and then hur-
rying out to the barn yard, he turn
ed loose both barrels upon the flock.
Imagine his surprise when he found
that he had tackled every last one
of them to the barn roof. While
calling his wife to see what a good
shot he had made, he was again sur
prised to see the flock of birds fly
off with the roof.-Metz (Missouri)

THANKSGIVING To
PUT in ITS own MILL

The development of the Thanks
giving mine has reached the stage
that makes it. imperative that the
management put in a mill to treat
their own ores. The immense ton
mage now blocked out warrants the
installation of such a plant at once
and negotiations are now pending
with Salt Lake firm, which will
probably result in the early building
of Manhattan's fifth mill.
The plans now under contempla-
ton include milling and concen-
trating plant capable of handling %
tens daily, and the Salt Lake people
claim they can put in an equipment
that will handle at a profit ore of
as low grade as S. to the ton.
This would mean that every pound
of ore in the Thanksgiving ledge is
to carry a profit to the stockholder.

.SACKING ORE
ON THE Denver

The lowest level in the Denver, of
the Tramp Consolidated estate, on
Bonanza Mountain, continues to
make good Superintendent Charles
Garden reports that the drifts are
out about 80 feet either way from
the winze, and that both drifts con-
tinue to expose excellent ore.
A portion of the ore is being sack
ed while the balance is being thrown
on the big Denver dump. Mr.. Gar
den says that no attempt is being
made to sack anything that runs I'M
der 1925 a ton.
An estimate on the amount of good
milling ore on the Denver dumps
places it at $4,000 tons, all of which
would make a handsome profit if
milled on the premises or in the i'm
mediate vicinity.
I'VE are not trying to bring the
ore up to shipping grade" said
Mr.. Garden, but the stuff that goes
1925 or better we are sacking, and
the rest is going on the big dump
waiting for the mill which will prob
ably be built on the property"
Two shifts are being worked in
either drift ON the 900 level, while
drifting is also in progress on the
500 level, where values have been
exposed for 200 feet in driving south
from the winze. Mr.. Garden reports
that the 500 level is also making a
promising showing of mineral, and
he feels much encouraged over the
Tramp development in general

MAKING CHANGES
in SHOSHONE MILL

The big Shoshone mill at Rhyolite
is undergoing radical changes and
the major portion of the plant will be
idle for several days.
The changes consist in the elimin-
alton of the plates, the lowering of
the screens and elevators and the in
stallation of two additional screens.
This work will require a week and
perhaps two weeks. The machinery
was closed down Tuesday night and
large force of men, under the direc-
ton of Mill Superintendent C. A.
Shay, are rushing the alterations so
that as little time will be lost as pos
sible.
The process of extraction will be
limited to concentration and cyanid-
ing. This change has been decided
upon after giving the mill thorough
testing, extending over a period of
some months.
The plates have been saving COM
paratively small percentage of gold,
owing to the character of the ore, in
which the gold is very fine. The gold
previously secured on the plates will
be taken up in cyanide, as repeated
tests have shown, so that the opera
ton of the plates is considered a
needless expense.
The mill has been saving 80 per
cent of the values and will continue
to do so under the new arrangement.
The screens and elevators are be-
ing lowered about 20 feet, which will
also reduce the cost of operating.
Since the first of February, the
mill has been crushing close to 200
tons of ore per day, with two shifts
working, and Mr.. Shay expects to
bring the mill up to at least $50
tons with three shifts upon the com
pletion of the improvements now un-
der way.
The cyaniding tanks will be emp
tied in the meantime, so that the mill
will begin operations with a general
cleanup from top to bottom. 1t is
expected that the ore will hereafter
be crushed in weak cyanide solu-
ton.
The direct shipments Of ore from
the ShOShOne now AVERAGE 5O tonc
a day, and would be increased if the
l.. V. & T. railway would furnish
more cars. The last car of concen-
trates was shipped Sunday. The last
cleanup from the plates will be con-
verified into bullion in few days.

AT THE GOLD BAR MILL.

The Gold Bar mill has been in op-
Grafton II days, with daily average
of 80 tons treated. The plates are
saving from So to &c per cent of the
values. A cleanup will be made the
first of March. The ore is averaging
SIS in gold to the ton. President j.
P. Lotus visited the property a few
days ago and was much pleased with
the mill and the successful operation
of the same.-Rhyolite Herald
