Idaho Champion Has a
Good Shoot.
IS OF HIGH GRADE CHARACTER
Company Will Push Work
and Develop.

The Idaho champion M. & M.
Co., locally known as the Thun-
der Mountain company, have
just broken into a new shoot of
ore. This shoot is on what is
known as No. 2 vein, and is in
the No. A tunnel, on what is
called the Mabel claim.
The No. a tunnel, which is a
cross-cut, was run to work the
Champion vein. and when in 300
feet cut the No. 2 vein, and from
this point the vein is followed
for 800 feet, where an upraise
was made to connect with an
other tunnel. At this point there
is a good body Of ore, but the
former management did no more
work here, as at this time the
work was confined to the Cham
pion vein.
Mr.. R. Kemp Welch, the man.
ager in charge at present, put
some men at work in this drift
about two weeks ago, with the
result that they are now opening
up one Of the best shoots of ore
ever found in this property. At
present they have about 175 foot
depth, and will gain depth very
fast as they run into the hill.
This shoot of ore was first dis
covered on the surface about 1000
feet west from No. A tunnel, and
considerable work was done at
this point.
Then the Nickel tunnel was
started, which would tap the
vein at a great depth, but this
work was stopped after running
some 700 feet, and what now
4 seems to be within 100 feet Of
the ledge.
AS it looks at present this
shoot will make good, as it il
very fine ore, highly mineralizeC
and high grade. Formerly th'
management of this compan.
have done a great deal Of dea'
work, and have never succeede'
in opening up any ore that woul'
pay to handle, but the presen
management has taken a differ
ent course, and is following tn
hedges that have pay in them.

FOR THE PROSPECToR.
Free Winter Schools for His
Instruction.

1t seems. that the miners and
the mining industry are about to
receive the recognition they have
so long been awaiting. Not only
has federal bureau of mines
been established, but in at least
one of the land grant colleges,
which are supported largely by
the federal government, facili-
ties for acquiring a knowledge
of the rudiments of mining,
metallurgy, assaying, chemistry,
geology and mine surveying are
now available, not alone for the
high school graduate and son of
the well-to-do, but for the miner,
the prospector, the mining man
and for any others interested in
the mineral industry whatever
be their previous education or
station in life.
For nearly ten years the State
College Of Washington has been
maintaining an assayers short
course, beginning Immediately
after the new year. Last year
this course was reorganized in
keeping with the new and eX-
tensive equipment of the mining
department and is now designat-
ed the Winter School of Mines.
This may be either a ten OF a
twelve weeks course. A large
number of men from Washing
ton, Oregon, Idaho and Montana
were enrolled last winter and all
expressed themselves as delight
ed with the work and the bene.
fit they had gained; a number Of
these men have signifed then
intention of returning this yeaa
to continue their work. Last
year the enrolment included moi
only a number of grizzled pros
pectors, but several college grad
yates. a mechanical engineer anC
a licensed physician of 80 years
experience.
The winter months are dea(
, ones in the mining camps. Can
the prospector or miner spend ;
, couple of months to better ad
vantage than by attending sucl
a course as this?
The faculty of the White
School of Mines, includes, be

! ing department, all of whom ar

Lewiston Gets Jolted Plenty.

The fact that both ballots and
stubs were numbered does not
invalidate the Nez Perce county
local option election, though the
numbering was in direct violation
of the law and violated the
secrecy of the ballot, according
to an opinion rendered by the
Idaho supreme court in the case
of James B. McGrane, appellant,
against the county of Nez Perce,
respondent.
This decision is hardly second
ary in Importance to that rend-
cred in the Mix case, to the
effect that a general law can
amend special city charter as
far as control of the liquor traffic
is concerned. These two opinions
form a triumph for local option
in this state and are of tremenG-
Gus significance in their effects.
The opinion in the McGrane
case is to the effect that the
court can conceive of no principle
which permits the disfranchise-
ment of innocent voters for the
mistakes or even the wilful mis-
conduct of election officers in per-
forming the duties cast upon
them.

side points Tuesday. He expects
TO be gone Until spring.

BUGGY STRUCK BY !
AN ELECTRIC CAR
FURNITURE COLLECTOR HAD A
NARROW ESCAPE YESTER-
DAY MORNING.
Car Struck Rear Wheels of Buggy,
Almost DemCishine it-occupant
Was Thrown Out But Escaped With
out Being Injured.

Quite a serious little accident oc-
Cured yesterday morning at the corr
ner of l. and Norwich streets, when
one of the electric cars and a buggy
driven by J. l.. Presslar, collector Tor
G. F. Gay, the furniture dealer, had a
collision, the buggy and the occupant
receiving decidedly the worse of the
miX-up. Mr.. Presslay, while not ser
iously injured, was considerably bruis-
ed by being thrown from the buggy,
while the buggy was almost wrecked
The horse escaped injury.
The car was in charge of Motcrman
Guy Hackett, and both the motorman
and Mr.. Presslay lay the blame to the
other. Motorman Hackett claims that
he was coming down Norwich street
at the regular rate of speed and upon
approaching l. he sounded the gong
On the electric car as is customary.
Just before reaching L street he saw
the horse crossing the track. He says
Mr.. Presslay was driving fast and, as
it appeared to him, was attempting to
cross before the arriy al of the car
He did not have time to apply the
brakes and bring the car to a stop,
bat slowed down and stopped as soon
as possible. Before this, however,
the collision had occurred He says
he used every effort to avoid the ac-
cident.
Mr.. Presslay claims that he was
coming down the street and that the
motorman did not ring the gong as
he approached the corner. AS soon
as he saw the car rapidly coming
upon him he made an effort to get out
of tae way, but that the car struck the
buggy before he could do Sc He says
the accident was entirely the fanlt IF
the motorman. The accident was wit
messed by two or three people, but
their version of the collision differed
somewhat.
The front portion of the electric car
struck the rear wheels of the buggy,
knocking them off, Mr.. Presslay was
thrown from the seat, and at first it
was feared that he was seriously injur-
ed. but, as stated, beside few brlises
he was none the worse off from the
accident.

shorter time, according to Mr.. Viii

Be Secured.

Atlanta. Feb 26.-Quite a number
of Georgians are interested in a new
transccntinental road, which, it is
claimed, will bring the Empire state
and adjoining states 500 miles nearer
to the Pacific than heretofore. The
road is known as the Kansas City,
and Orient railway with a capital OF
$4,000, 900, and is subsidized by the
government of Mexico. Several At
lanta capitalists have been talking
about the project and the probable
benefits to the south. William Hurd
Hillyer, a prominent young financier,
and perhaps one of the best informal
men in the south on railroad condl-
tions, declares the new road will fur
nish the first absolutely direct outlet
for southern manufacturers to the far
east Mr.. Hillyer says:
The benefits of such a system to
the south would naturally be great.
This road will bring Georgia and ad-
joining states at least 500 miles near
er TO the Pacific than heretofore. In
fact, it viii furnish the first absolute
ly direct outlet for southern manu-
facturers to the far east Southern
be shipped direct via Kansas City and
over the Kansas City, Mexico and
Orient lines to Torolobambo Bay.
There connecting with. the Hamburg
American line OF steamers for China
and Jaran. The south will no longer
have to pay toll to the north for trans
portatiOn of its products across the
continent and thence across the Pa
Cific.
Another interesting feature of this
road which would particularly appeal
to southern people is the fact that it
is being financed Independent of Wall
street SPECTATORS Most of the
money, | am advised, is being furnish
ed by Dutch and English bankers
who are looking merely for a Terma-
nent investment. 1t will be recalled
that the Kansas City Southern was

latest project should not prove even
more successful. Mr.. Stillwell lost
control of the Kansas City Southern
just as ii was reaching it's most pros
porous stage, by putting up his stock
as collateral, | am told, with some
Wall street banking houses. He has
provided against this contingency in
the case of the Kansas City, Mexico
