DAHO'S MINER
AL RESOURCES
Are Much Greater Than the
World Generally
L Believes

The Daily Mining Record, pub
rshed at Denver, has the following
EDITORIAL comment:
"That the revival of mining inter
est is by no means confined to the
southwest is proved by the daily
items of news from the various sec.
tons of the northwest, and Idaho is
beginning to be favored more than il
has been for the past several years
That Idaho's mineral possibilities are
much greater than the world gener-
ally believes, will be demonstrated
BY development. That is the one
means of proving the worth of a camp
and all the talk of latent wealth than
can be given vent to is of little value.
1T may be recalled that when
Thunder mountain was at its best,
there. existed an association of at least
a tacit nature that managed to keep
the world well informed, and some
folks agree the information was a
triAe too persistent.
When a boom is on in one sec
ton, the people who promote mining
enterprises are not much inclined to
60 anywhere else, because they pre-
fer to be in with the boom crowd
not necessarily because they believe
their stocks will find a better market,
but because facilities are promoted
much more rapidly than in other dis
tricts, and the possibilities of demon
strating large areas are more pro
,A0nnced.
Now and then men of means are
thrown in more or less intimate con-
tact with sections that boast no boom,
and after they have investigated con-
ditions, they are satisfied that is the
very place for them to make trial.
One after another becomes interested
until the camp is fairly prosperous,
and activities begin to show results
The most difficult part of camp
making is getting the proper start,
for, no matter how many practical
miners may believe in the section,
they oftimes lack the funds with
which to develop their ground, and
they may also lack administrative
ability. The corporation is the one
solution, and corporate growth in the
northwest is on the increase.

THE LEWIS Mill.
New Blackwell Lumber Company
i Takes Over the Plant

r. A, Blackwell arrived in the city
THIS morning on the early train from
spokane, and Immediately after went
INTO conference with E. P. Keefe
and Earl Rogers at the Hotel Idaho
me character of the conference could
not be learned but it is presumed that
II was with relation to the affairs Of
tne Blackwell Lumber company which
MED Its articles of incorporation with
the county auditor Saturday. This
company, according to its articles of
incorporation, represents the interests
OF the B. R. Lewis Lumber company
those OF F. A. Blackwell and his bus
mess associates, and the Menasha
Woodenware company. The capital
lzation is placed at $2,5O0,OOO, and
the directors designated are F. A.
Blackwell, B. r. Lewis, Fred B. Grin
nell, G. R. Smith and R. NJ. Hart, and
this city is named as the company's
place of business.
Subsequent to the conference Mr..
Blackwell was seen with relation to
the plans of the company, but de-
clined to discuss them any further
than to state that during the week the
company would take over the interests
of the B. R. Lewis company, and also
that a meeting would be held at
which the company's officers will be
elected. Beyond this Mr.. Blackwell
would make no statement, but it is
understood that as soon as the cleo
ton of officers is had the company
will make known its plans, and as
soon as the necessary arrangements
can be made the mill will resume
operations. The logging camps, it is
stated, will resume operations in a
week, and just when the mill will
commence operations is problemat-
ical, but it is predicted by those who
are in position to know that it will
be within the next 80 days.

suFFRAGErrEs IN WASHINGTON
Opened Headquarters to Push Ma
tional Campaign.

WASHINGTON, Feb. with
Mrs. Rachael Foster Avery, OF Phila-
ldelphia, in charge, the National Amer
lean Suffrage headquarters was OPEN
ed in Washington today. The infor-
NAL Inauguration of suffragette head
quarters took place last monta. but
the official warfare on the mere men
who compose congress and who deny
women the ballot did not commence
until tonay. A monster woman suf-
frage petition, to contain hundreds
OF thousands of names, will soon be
presented to congress by Mrs. Avery.
The association is making its home
in Washington in an old-fashioned
house on Eighth street, just OF Penn
sylvania avenue. The opening of the
headquarters is made possible by a
gift of $4,000 made by Mrs. Lewis,
Of Buffalo. The association has
fund of 100000 contributed to by
many prominent women interested in
the suffrage question, and was
brought together a year ago by Miss
Mary Garrett of Baltimore and Miss
NJ. Carey Thomas. president of Bryn
Mawr.
Miss Garrett belongs to the old
Quaker family of Baltimore, which is
prominent in the city and has been
an ardent worker in suffrage for
many years. She is the founder and
one of the strongest supporters of
Bryn Mawr. The money was raised
in pledges and in outright gifts. Mrs
Russell Sage, who has been an ardent
suffrage worker for many years, gives
$1,000 year to this fund, which.
while it may be used at the descre-
ton of the officers OF the society, is
intended for propaganda work. AMI
will not be used directly in opening
headquarters.

MINES PAY BIG
District is One Of Greatest
Wealth Producers in
the World

WALLACE, Idaho, Feb. 1.-The
record of production by the silver.
lead. gold an dcopper mines OF the
Occur d'Alene district within the last
year or two and the splendid showing
made by dividends declared and paid
in 1907 and 1903 are a fitting climax
to the record for the last quarter of a
century, in which these mines have
contributed to the wealth of the
country In round number $3.50, 000,-
600. OF this vast sum the lead mined
was valued at 100000, 900. silver at
SAC 100000 and gold at $4,000, 900.
Copper and zinc mines throughout
the district are coming to the front
as wealth producers very rapidly. and
It is predicted that before many years
copper especially will be one of the
principal products. There is no doubt
as to the existence of rich deposits of
zinc, but the ore is of such a nature
that more simplified and cheaper pro-
cesses of separation must be found
before many of the zinc-produclng
properties will be worked with profit
The Bunker Hill e. Sullivan and
Federal Mining and Smelling com
pany's four mines yielded in profits,
divided among the stockholders prior
10 January /, 1908, S15,67S. 900. Dur
ing the last year these properties paid
dividends to the amount of $1,S45,-
900. and the Bunker Hill and sulli-
van paid in January paid in January
of this year $4,000.
The figures for the Hercules mine
are only estimates. as the dividends
are not made public as in the case OF
other properties. II is known. how
ever, that the Hercules has paid TO
date profits amounting to about So
324. 900. OF which more than $780,
900 was paid last year. and a divi-
dend of $4,000 declared for the cur
rent month on the goth.
snowstorn Big Payer.
The SnowstOrm at Mullan has
yielded to date s645, 600. including a
$45. 900 dividend in January. 1909.
The Helea has paid 81 dividends in
varying amounts. including $40. 900
for this month and a total to date of
$1.73O.OOO.
The year Of greatest production
was 1907, but there Is no doubt that
1t would have been exceeded by last
year had it not been for the depres-
sion in financial circles and the pre-
vailing low price Of lead and silver.
This resulted in many OF the larger
properties and some Of the newer and
smaller in the district being closed
down. some Of them for months. In

Army to Ask Soldiers to Volunteer 10
Submit.

Submit.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Immun-
ization against typhoid in the army
campus by vaccination is to be under
taken by the military authorities. The
whole matter is frankly to be put be-
fore the army and individuals will be
invited to volunteer for vaccination.
No soldier or officer will be compelled
to submit to anti-typhoid vaccination,
but an effort will be made by lectures
and examples to show the soldier the
advantage of availing himself of such
a simple way of escaping one of the
most dreaded of army camp diseases.
Included in the physicians board
making the recommendation were DR..
Victor c. Waugh, of Ann Arbor, Dr.
William F. Councilman, of Boston;
DR.. John II. Musser. Of Philadelphia;
DR.. Alexander Lambert, of New York;
DR.. Simon Flexner, of New York, and
DR.. William S. Thayer of Baltimore
A summary of the boards conclusions
made public today points out a we'll
known fact that during the civil war
and the Spanish wars typhoid fever
prevailed to a great extent among the
troops In the last few years 1900
me have been treated this way with
excellent effect.

PURE MILK FOR CHICAGO
shippers TO Form Organization 4
Maintain Quality.

CHICAGO, Feb. AS a result OF
the pure milk crusade inaugurated in
this city, plans to form an organiza
ton of the 5000 milk producers and
|dairymen of Illinois, Indiana and Wis
consin who ship milk into Chicago,
with the purpose of asking the legis,
latures of Illinois and Indiana for
statutes requiring the application OF
the tuberculosis test to all milch
cows, were formulated at meeting
Of dairymen and farmers held In the
Sherman House today.
1t was the consensus OF opinion
that state inspection of milch cows
by the tuberculosis test and the re-
fusal OF the state authorities to allow
the sale of milk from infected cattle
would do more toward securing pure
milk for Chicago than local ordinanc-
es or less sweeping system OF in
spection.
The program which has been out
lined tentatively at the convention is
Ito ask the Illinois legislature to pass a
law compelling all cattle to be sub
jected to the tuberculosis test at the
expense of the state and to prohibit
the importation of cattle into the
state which cannot present certifi-
cate OF good health signed by live
stock inspectors from the state from
which they have been shipped

expected that within short time the
system of inspection will have been
SO far completed as to assure the pur-
ity of the entire supply. Butter and
cheese dealers have been given two
months in which to dispose of the
present stock before complying with
the law.

Addition to Boone Roundbouae

BOONE, Ia, Dec. 17.-(Special)-The Chi
cago & Northwestern Railway company at
this time is engaged in a big piece of work
in this city, about which little has been
said or written. The company has the
work nearly completed, a few more days
being required to put on the finishing
touches.
Some time ago the Northwestern Rail-
way company purchased a great many new
freight engines, regular monsters. called
me class e. engines. These were so big
they could not get into the new round
house, or rather a portion of them could
not get in, the tail end of the engine stick
ing out in the cold and wet. The COMPANY
at once gave Instructions to nave some en-
larging done. A force of men immedi-
ately was put to work on the roundhouse.
The men had instructions to build an add
ton Of twelve feet clear around the house,
so that the engines would be entirely un-
der cover, This is the work that is pro-
crossing SO rapidly. The new addition is
badly needed and the shopmen will be glad
when It is completed.
Aside from the charging of the new
house some other repairs are being made.
The place hasn't been as warm as the en-
ployes would like in the winter. Accord
tngly a force of men is at work warming
up the place. The house is being lined
with heavy paper, floors are being put
down where needed and otherwise the place
is being rejuvenated. When finished the
Northwestern company will have as com
pfete a roundhouse as there is on the
system.
