LUCKY CALUMET WORK STARTS

Active work on the long lower
tunnel of the Lucky Calumet
near Mullan will be started just
as soon as the Washington
Water Power company gets the
power line from the upper to the
lower workings in place.
The machinery has been moved
from the upper to the lower
workings. This includes a five
drill compressor and two motors.
For the past two months the
force has been engaged in this
work and in building a wagon
road from the Butte Occur d.
Alene road to the site of the
new tunnel.
The men have begun driving
the lower tunnel by hand. The
tunnel is to tap the ledge at a
distance of 1900 feet and give
1924 feet depth on the dip of the
vein. the vertical depth not be-
ing estimated.
This lower crosscut will strike
the ledge a short distance to the
east Of where the copper ore is
exposed in the upper workings.
A large quantity of low grade
copper ore is in sight in the tun-
nels above and from general in
dications it is believed that the
depth to be acquired in the new
tunnel will give shipping ore
in large quantity.

FRENCH TARIFF RATES HIGH
Maximum Rates Are AssessedNAgainst
ALI Imports from United States.
OFFICIALS SCOUT TARIFF WAR
America Probably Best Market for
Champagne and other wines and
Trouble Might Put France
20 Disadvantage.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-Government
officials here are not disposed to regard
the action Of france in deciding to assess
the maximum rate OF duty against all i'm.
ports from the United States as an evil
dence Of its intention to enter into a tariff
war with this government.
on August z ] President Taft, in pursuance
Of the provisions of section four OF our
new tariff act. gave formal notice to
France, Switzerland and Bulgaria that our
commercial agreements with them would
be terminated on October 81 of this year.
France. more than any other country in
Europe, has Disseminated against Amcri-
can products. Germany gives to the United
States it's minimum rates on about % per
cent of our expectations into that country.
France, however, has charged this country
It's maximum rates on all our expectations
with the exception of a few articles
enumerated in section 3 Of the Dingley
tariff. Under that section France has
given us It's conventional or reduced rate
on canned meats, fresh and dried fruits,
pork meats, lard, mineral oil and coffee
from Porto Rico, while the United States
las given France reclprocally the benefit
of a reduced rate on c~hampagnes, brandies,
aFBOlS ana a rev OlneF commodities d iess
consequence.
The effect of having to Va our maximum
rate would undoubtedly be 10 put France
At a tremendous disadvantage as compared
with practically all other European ma
lions in handling American goods. America
is probably france best market for its
champagnes, brandies and other wines.
and it is confidently expected that France
will seriously consider between now and
March 81 whether 1t can afford to pay, not
only a rate considerably higher than it has
been paying. but an additional increase Of
2J per cent over this higher rate.
France has gained the most in cham
pagnes under the expiring commercial
agreement. Under the Dlng!ey law the
duty on champagne was s. per dozen
quarts. The agreement gave France a
rebate that reduced the duty to IS per
Dozen quarts. Under the new tariff law
the same champagne, beginning November
l, must pay SEQ ger dozen quarts, an
advance OF $3.50.
II was reported today that a preserva-
tive WIS used iii French champagne which
might come under THE ban Of the pure food
