Of those who had formerly fought

Certain tendencies were apparent in
the republican party that caused wide

United States has evoked republican
sneers. The government has been
drifting away from the old moorings.

STILL DRIFTING AT THE SOUTH DUNN

NEW PUMP AT NORTH ARMENIA
Test pittins and Drilling at the South
Masiodonr Other Mining Notes Of
Interest

At the South Dunn drifting Is still
being carried on on the fret level Tut
preparations are being made TO sink the
new lift and work will undoubtedly
start soon.
The drifting has carried the work
men out OF the ore measure so that the
extent of the deposit is pretty we'll
known by this time.
The crew has not been enlarged TO
any exent yet, there being about thirty
men employed.
AT the North Armenia new pump
has been installed to take care of the
extra amount of water encountered
since the Armenia shut down. Only
"A small pump was used heretofore as
the water that was made was almost
none. AS soon AS the water rose in
the Armenia TO a level with the work
ings OF the North Armenia more water
was encountered and IL has been grow
ing in volume ever since. In fact 1t
got to such volume that work In the
most promising portion Of the deposit
had TO be discontinued as that point
was the one from which most OF the
water was coming
At the south Mastodon the Oliver
people are test pitting and operating a
diamond drill. The test pitting is
being done by small crew, the pits
being carried down AS far as the dirt
can be thrown out. Some of the pits
are bottomed in ledge by this method
and some do not reach ledge. IL Is the
intention to go over the pits again
with windlass and send them all
down 10 ledge.
The diamond drill is working along
the Stager road beyond the old South
Mastondon location tits still at work
on the first hole.
Shipping was discontinued at the
Bristol hast week after the small cargo
was loaded and the shovel was moved
back ready for another cut as soon as
another order is received
The local officials are still living in
hope of receiving orders 10 start up.
The Oglebay Norton people have
started shipping and mining at their
Iron River properties and at the En-
pire on the Marquette range which
gives the Bristol people encouragement.
Loading from stockpile aud pocket
is continued at the Great Western and
Tobin and from the pocket at the Dunn
without any abatement The shovel
loads three days each at the Tobin and
Great Western. No stocked ore has
been loaded ut the Dunn yet but IL is
thought that loading will begin there
when the other piles are finished.
No new program has yet been adopt
ed at the Mansfield. The men are still
working on half time aud no ore is
being shipped from the property
