.F|FTY-S|x MINES
y. !. ARE IN OPERATION

Spokane, June 15.-IFifty six placer
mines are in operation in the Flor
ence district in central Idaho, where
the entire topography is being changed
by the giant hydraulic sluices, a bat
terry of which is tearing down the
hills. The dirt is panned for gold
with excellent results. Veteran pros
pectors say that not since the early
days, when thousands of men battled
With the forces Of nature in their
quest for the rich yellow dust and
nuggets, has there been such activity
in the camps. The heavy blankets Of
ice and snow in the mountains are
slowly being converted into water, al
ways a boon to the placer minors, and
every indication is there will be suf-
ficient water for Il long run during
the summer. The dirt is panning Out
from 3 to 20 cents worth of gold for
each sshoyelful, and the miners are
happy. Experts report that the total
cleanup will be anywhere from $780,
900 to $1,00O,00O, most of which will
find it's way into the regular channels

GIANT WATER POWER
AVAILABLE
GREAT ELECTRICAL ENERGY
CAN BE DEVELOPED AT
GOVERNMENT LOCK.

St Paul, June 15.--An exhaustive
investigation just completed bv a
| commission of government engineers
acting with local officers of the gov
eminent engineers office, city Off
Gals of st. Paul and Minneapolis and
prominent business men, has demon
| strated that $1,000 horsepower of cleo
trical energy can be developed at the
lower OF the two new navigation locks
on the Mississippi just above st. Paul,
by the expenditure of an additional
S250,0O0. The government makes the
unusual proposition that it will permit
the use of power at the lock, provided
the two cities or other interests will
bear the additional cost. That the
power will be used is already settled
Whether it will be used by a private
power company, or jointly by the
state of Minnesota and the two ada
cent cities, is a question which will
be determined by joint commission
composed of three men named by
Governor Johnson and three by each
Of the two mayors.
The government has completed one
lock and dam and partially completed
the second, or lower, of the two. To
develop the power the second dam
must be raised Is feet utilizing pres
ent foundations and the work already
completed. This will provide a 80
foot dam, raising a large head of
water and developing enormous power
The state is already interested and
wishes a portion of the, power for use
at the state university, the state agri-
cultural school, which is one of the
largest in the United States and the
state fair grounds. The government
requires 1000 horsepower, and the two
cities of St. Paul and Minneapolis
have need of the balance.
The governments proposition. while
it does not establish a precedent is
unusual, and the the proposed i'm
provements will be the first of it's
kind in the northwestern United
States. The Investigations prove that
the power can be developed at excep-
tionally low cost. The most mpor-
tant problems now to be faced are the
division of the expenses and the divi-
sion of power to be developed as be-
tween the government, state and the
cities. The partnership in power,
while novel, has been proven feasible.
The power plant, when built, will be
only a short distance from Fort
Smelling, an immense military post,
and convenient both to the state in
situations and to st. Paul and Min
neapolis. The government was repre-
scented in the conferences by Major
G. S. Richie, in charge Of the upper
Improvement work; Major
Skunk, engineer who supervised the
Of the locks, and Major
BromWell of Milwaukee, who had the
assistance Of Major S. w. Miller, u. |
S. A., and j. d. Du Shane, John
Wade and G. w. Freeman, govern
