More Payroll for CoIvilIe

The trout fry recently purchased by
the county commissioners have been
distributed AS was expected the fish
have been placed in the streams in the
western portion of the county. The
streams where the Colyille sports HE
themselves to on summer days outing
received the benefit of the money The
disciples Of Walton on this side of the
county pay their license fee for fishing
in order that the payroll crowd at Col
vile may have the benefit of few days
fishing.
The only chance the fishermen of this
side OF the county have is to dig down
deep in their pockets and pull out the
coin to pay for spawn to stock the
streams of this side of the county A
meeting will be called in tho near fu-
ture, and an effort will be made to raise
a sum of money to purchase fry for the
streams Of East Stevens county.

Progress Of Civic Improvement.

All through southern California.
reaching to points quite remote, there
is stronger trend toward public beau
tifying and preservation of natural
beauty than ever before. Even down
in the so called desert sections, the
Coachella and Imperial valleys, where
settlement and development of agri-
cultural lands have heretofore occu
pied all available. Of both time and
means, the work Of civic improvement
and civic identifying is now under
strong Roadway and able leaders. All
the more important towns are taking
up this work in a thorough and sys-
tematic manner. Even the rural resi-
dents are awake to the fact that to
grow and market crops is not all Of
life, and to have the desert bloom as
the rose" is to become a reality in the
very near future. From all parts Of
the California southland come reports
Of great moral uplift manifested by
the desire for better homes and home
surroundings, which bespeaks in no I'M
certain tones that this end Of the state
will in the near future be one vast
stretch OF beautiful gardens made ac-
cessible to all who travel by tree lined
roadways Of perfect condition.

ON METALINE DISTRICT
Expert Reviews The Situation
in Mining Camp
Transportation to Solve Problem

In the Mining World of Chicago, in
the annual review OF work, done in the
various mining districts of the country,
Geo. A. Ohrens contributes the follow
ing ON the Metaline mining district;
In the Metaline district, where things
have been rather quiet during the year,
there is much hope for the future. Inc
principal mines here are the Mammoth
Morning, Spokane lead mines. Oriole,
Maiden. Cooke Clark and the Blue jim.
The first named are lead properties, the
Oriole and Maiden silver mines and the
Blue jim is in the copper belt. Early IN
the year a company was organized by
the stockholders of the Morning and
Mammoth properties. called the Morn
ing. Mammoth Concentrating Co., and
contract was entered into with this com
PAW to mill all OF the low grade ores
IRON the two mines. Up to the present
time this concentration has not been
erected The Spokane Lead Mines Co.
built q concentration, but owing to imam
cial difficulties, it was only run short
time. The real live question in this dis
trict now is whether or not it would pay
the mining companies better to send
their ore direct to the smelter than con-
centrate, "a there is quite loss entailed
in the concentration process and the ore
being of very low grade it cannot be
worked at a profit when these losses and
the working costs are taken into consid-
Grafton. The gangue OF the ore OF the
lead mines is lime, containing high
percentage of calcium carbonate. The
starting of the smelter on Lake Pend
Orielle, and the building OF the Idaho,
i Washinaton Northern Railway into
the Metaline district afford partial
solution Of the problem that now con-
fronts the miners of lie ad in that district
The smelter on Lake Pend Oreille is
very much in need of an ore containing
an excess of lime and can we'll afford to
pay the Metaline miners price for
their product far beyond what they
would realize from the concentrated
product, after several more or less i'm
portant factors are considered. For ex-
ample, if We say that the average low
grade lead ore OF the Metaline carries 10
per cent lead and the concentration 6 to
/, it has been found that there is loss
Of about Is per cent. This may seem
high, but it is about right. The railway
when completed should he able to lay
this ore down at the smelter for 81 or
$50 per ton and sufficiently favor
able treatment rate secured so that the
mines might make a fair profit on their
mining operations. The Oriole and
Maiden, and other properties are on the
contact between the quartzite and lime
formations. These ores are siliceous,
carrying good paying quantities OF silver
The Blue Jim is principally a copper
property In this district there is heavy
tonnage OF this low grade ore blocked
out SO that it was not necessary or ad-
visable to do great OF development,
work during the past year. Some oil
