WORK RESUMES ON
The THOMAS LEASE

Work has been resumed on the
Thomas lease on Columbia mountain,
on the property of the Columbia Noun
tain Mining company. George Wing
field, one of the principal owners,
granted the original operators of the
lease a new lease, and the leasers arc
now in a position to prosecute develop
ment steadily. There is a shaft $50
feet deep on the leasing block, aside
from some surface values. It is stated
that prior to the time the original lease
was shut down some small values had
been uncovered, and that with the ope-
rators now in shape to do further de
velopment, there is much hope of reach
ing the pay streak. Three men are
at work at present, using a windlass.

BURKE LEASE RESUMES
OPERATIONS ON BELMONT

After a temporary vacation in which
Burke and partners, leasing on the Bel
mont, spent some time in San Francisco
at the Portola festival, the leasers have
resumed operations on their block OF
ground, and are again taking out ore
The lease still looks good, with a large
body of ore in sight, some of which ear
ries values running up to between $4,000
and $4,000.
The Belmont company is meeting with
encouraging results in the work 1t IS
doing, and has a nice showing of ore
that promises to do something big in the
way of production in the near future
Superintendent Howard is of the opin-
ion that the company is on the verge
Of a steady and heavy output, which
should soon rival the best that the
Burke lease has pet shown in the GROUND
between the surface and the lOO-foot
level.

ST. ives LEASE STRIKES
GOOD ORE At RAWHIDE

A report from Rawhide says that on
the st. Ives lease on the Queen estate
at a depth of 215 feet, they have 10
inches of ore that averages 500 per
ton, and which samples from $40 to
1908. This is undoubtedly the Grutt-
Balloon Hill OF Peabody, and lS5-foot
level of the latter would conform to
the 215-foot level Of the ST. Ives. The
whole drift is in milling ore and they
are saving the whole thing for treat
ment at the local mills. The body is
close to five feet wide and every indi-
cation points to the permanancy of
the ore body. The company is still
sinking and has attained a depth of
800 feet. 1t is expected that they will
start the compressor today and with
the operation of the machine drills, the
work of development and the exploita-
tion of ore will of course be more
rapid thar has been the case in the
past. The st. Ives now has a large
quantity of good milling ore, in addi-
ton to the high grade mentioned. and
are handicapped as the rest OF the
leases by inability to have it treated at
home. The high grade can and will be
shipped out to the samplers, but the
large lot of mill rock that is in evil
dence must be worked locally if profit
is to be derived.
The st. Ives has one foot of ore on
the l85-foot level which they are driv'
ing from the Grutt-B Balloon Hill shaft,
assaying 1920 to the ton. In addition
Ito this is a large body of mill ore.

WESTERN MILL TO
START AT GOLD MOUNTAIN

The old Western mill that stood for a
long time near the brewery in this city,
and this summer was ~dismanteled and
moved to the Gold Mountain district, is
about ready to again drop it's stamps
on ore. Yesterday a 5000 gallon tank
left the E. V. Hatch shop, consigned 70
Bob Crosby, at Gold Mountain, and
when this is in place the mill will he
gin hammering the gold out of the ore
produced by the various properties in
its vicinity. The mill will be a boon TO
the operators in this district, whence
none but immensely rich ore can be
shipped at a profit, and probably marks
the beginning of a new era in mining
1t Gold Mountain.

MAYFLOWER NINE
LOUSY" WITH ORE

Between the 400 and 400 levels in
the Mayfower Consolidated there il
a handsome body of ore that RUM
from $50 to $75 per ton. Work is be-
ing pushed on the 400 level to get into
this rich shoot, says the Rhyolits
Herald.
The main shaft is being sunk below
the 500 level, primarily to develop
more water for use in the mills. Al
ready it has increased the quantity
as the water is coming freely into the
shaft. Very soon the water supply
will be more than abundant.
Work in the Starlight shaft is pro-
crossing satisfactorily. While the
work now being done is not in tie
vein proper, the rock encountered as
says a to So per tom. 1t is expected
that through this shaft another ore
shoot will be opened up. The shaft is
now down 225 feet.
The mills are doing excellent work
and have plenty of it to do. Should
any considerable body of ore be
struck in the Starlight ground another
addition to milling capacity will be in
order to keep up with ore develop
ments.
The mine is growing greater daily.
Authentic reports from Pioneer arc
to the effect that the Pioneer lease is
shipping 40 tons of 500 rock per day
and that more teams will be put on at
once. The bulk Of this rich ore is com
ing from the 350-foot level of tho
lease, where a vein that run from
seven to nine feet in width has been
cut, some Of it containing the richest
ore that has ever beer opened in The
lease. Ore of much higher averag,
than 500 could be shipped, but it il
being graded below the 800 mark il
order to effect an advalorem saving OF
shipments and treatment.
Our informant states that the ricl
vein at the $50 level has been explorni
enough to show that it is not a mer'
pocket, but that it is the richest prop
osition that the lease has ever had. 81
looks good" he said, "to see thos'
big teams pulling through the cam
once more. The Mayfiower is getting
richer and richer ore all the time, AMI
from the productive standpoint Pho
neer is greater now than it has evel
been-and getting better"

'LEASERS ON THE DAISY
MAKING GOOD SHOWING

Some of the leases on the Daisy are
making a pretty fair showing, notably
the Morrison, Cochrane and Willard &
Jones. Cochrane recently shipped
about twenty tons of ore that ran 500
or better a ton, and he has also been
shipping more or less mill ore. The
Morrison lease has again found the ore
shoot that was lost for a time, and
Willard & Jones are taking out a little
ore in the course of development. Quite
a little work is being done by other
~lessees who are still hunting for q "pay
shoot No prophet has yet been found
who can f~oretell just what the future
of Daisy will be.

ing sunk tt discover oil, on the big
salt marsh about five miles east of
Blair, is going steadily ahead. The
we'll has attained a depth of about 1910
feet, and is in a formation of shale
that makes drilling very slow work.
Manager H. A. Miller says that oil ex-
perts have pronounced this hard forma'

oil. The company is prepared 70 go

PEAK MILL
WILL Be 4 Big One

Work on the grading for the adj
dition of 20 stamps to the Pittsburg-
Silver Peak company's mill is still
in progress, and will be pushed to com
pletion as rapidly as possible. 1t is to
be expected that by February l the ad
d~itional stamps will be dropping on the
company's ore.
The mill is already second in ca
pacity in the state of Nevada with
its 100 stamps, and when the othe:
20 are in operation it means a ca.
pacity Of $40 tons per day, cinchine
second place.
In point Of efficiency and economy
Of treatment the Pittsburg-Silvef
Peak company's mill is surpassed by
no mill in Nevada or in the west. Its
equipment is magnificent, including all
the modern labor-saving machinery
adapted to it's requirements that a be
secured. The ore bins have a capacity
to 1000 tons.
With the vast bodies of ore now
blocked out a much larger number OF
stamps could be maintained in opera
ton. The watchword here is, "A big
tonnage with economy of production, !
and that policy ought to put the com
pany on a dividend basis in the near
future, paying for the very large outlay
for mine and mill.

STATE GAME DEPARTMENT
Accused Of Not Furnishing
Violations Of Law.
FOREST OFFICERS lNCENSED
But Governor Brady Investigates
and Writes to Pinchot.

Officials of the Boise department Of
the forest service are much incensed
at the treatment they allege they
have been receiving at the hands Of
the state fish and game department.
Under the statutes of the state the
officers of the field forest service are
eX officio deputy game wardens. They
assert that repeatedly Warden Ste
phens has been notified Of serious
violations of the law and has never
taken the trouble to investigate the
cases. Supervisor Grandiean stated
he had personally called the attention
of the warden to the killing of deer
in the vicinity of Alexander flat, SO
miles up the Boise river, but to no
avail.
The charges made by Supervisor
Grandjean of the Boise national
forest. against State Game Warden
Stephens claiming the latter had
| failed repeatedly to act when his at
tention had been called to violations
of the game law, were brought to the
attention of Governor Brady last
Saturday. The governor called Mr..
Stephens into his Office and learned
from him that only in two instances
was he notified of violations Of the
law, and IN one of the cases con
viction was secured, while deep snow
delayed action 10 the other. Govern.
or Brady at once wrote to Chief
Forester Pinchot, defending thu
game warden aud accusing Grand iear
of unfairness toward the state anG

the local team wa. on top all the

Both sides started out badly. The
visitors were first at bat and put four
men over the home plate. every man

bat before the side was retired on
account of Goodrich and Newton

failing to make safe hit. Two men,
Vesser and Swafford were left on
bases. Those who scored were Early,
Beck, Buss and McBreen. The local
teams went the visitors one better 10
the first, scoring five men 10 regular
batting order-Bobo. tchwell, Brig
ger, Roberts and Castillo. The next
three men-Boynton, Sage and
Reiniger-went down 10 the order
named by failing to hit safe to first
base. and Baldwin was the only man
on the home team who did not bat In
the inning.
In the second inning the visitors

Prohibition in Kansas.

A new law 10 Kansas ordains the
most rigid kind Of prohibition. Uns-
der the regime now In furce no alco-
holic liquors can be sold 10 that state
for any purpose. The old law gave
druggists the right to sell liquor for
''medicinal, mechanical and scien-
tific purposes" but now druggists
may not handle or sell liquor. even
upon physicians prescription. The
sale of alcohol is absolutely forbidden
and the display Of alcohol or liquor
on the shelves of afdrug store is re-
garded as prIna facie evidence that.
1t is being kept for unlawful sale, and
the druggist is subject to arrest. f.
Under the new law, also, the attor-
ney general Is to start a crusade
against the social clubs Of the state,
He has ruled that no man can. even
drink liquorIn clubhouse. Most Df
the clubs maintain locker systems,
but these are put under the ban by
the attorney general. at"
Many towns, following the advice
Of the attorney general, are limiting
the amount of beer that man can
have shipped to his home from an
outside state. Wichita has fixed tie
limit at one case week. Topeka at
one case for every Two weeks, = while
Leavenworth permits two eases a
week. ..
All this is long remove from the
old prohibition days 10 Kansas, which
the late Senator John J. Ingalls, once
described as "prohlbition for the pro-
hibitlonist and whisky for the whisky
drinker." The "thou shalt not
policy is made of ironclad rigidity and
the old "personal liberty" doctrine is
buried deep unde. the new law
