RICH STRIKE IN CONQUEST
Twelve Foot Ledge Of Valuable
Ore Encountered.
More Interest Shown In Mines

What is said to be the richest strike
and most important strike ever made
in the Newport mining district, has been
made on the Conquest, located two
miles inland from Conquest landing on
he Pend Oreille six miles north of New
port. A twelve foot north and south
contact ledge has been struck, the ore
in which carries values as follows
Gold $40, copper $38.
About six weeks ago there was a
rumor of a strike ON the Conquest which
was denied by those in charge of the
work and efforts have also been made
70 keep quiet this latest discovery. That
the latest report is correct both as to
extent and assay reports, can be stated
IN the best of authority.
The Conquest property consists of 16
claims on which considerable work has
been done in years past although for the
past three years only the assessment
work has been kept up. In the neigh
borhood of 500, 900 has been spent on
this property in making openings OF
2500 feet Of which about 1000 feet is in
drifts. The machinery equipment ir-
cludes boiler, hoist, six drill compress
sor and machine drill.
Oscar DeCamp who has been doing
assessment work the past winter left for
Spokane Wednesday carrying to the
stockholders in the city report of the
recent strike. MIR. DeCamp is quoted
as srying that the Conquest is now in
shape to make dividend payer and un-
doubtedly there will be considerable
work done this year as the result of the
strike. He states that the mine can
furnish 25 tons of concentrating ore per
day.
Several other properties in the neigh
borhood of the Conquest will profit by
reason of having work resumed through
the encouragement offered by the Con-
quest strike. The Comstock, patented
property, in the same vicinity has fine
body OF Galena exposed, work will be
resumed In the Lone Star, Last Chance
and several others.

Milwaukee President Inspected
Blackwell Road.
Rumors About Great Northern

President Earling, of the Chicapo
Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway, accom-.
panied by several eastern stockholders
OF the milwaukee," made trip over
the lines of the Idaho & Washington
Northern on Tuesday, the party being
the guests of President F. A. Blackwell.
The trip was made in Mr.. Earnings pri.
vate car. Both Mr.. Earling and Mr..
Blackwell have repeatedly denied the
rumors that the Blackwell road is to be
absorbed by the Milwaukee. The onlv
apparent foundations for these rumors
have been trips of this character by Mil
waukee officials.
Spokane is in the throes of a fierce
light over the granting OF franchise to
the Milwaukee and North Coast rail.
roads. The city council demands that
these roads grant the city terminal"
rates, which the roads decline to do,
claiming that they are not in position
70 do so. As result the roads refuse
the franchise with the terminal rate at
tachment, and will enter the city over
the tracks of other roads. The Milwau-
kee is said to have issued orders for the
rapid construction of its line from Coeur
d'Alene to Spokane, connecting with the
l. & w. n. at McGuire's and coming
into Spokane over the O. r. & n. from
a point Just east of the Spokane CITY
limits.
Rumors concerning the Great North
ern's plans at this point continue to ly
around town. The fact that the Morgan
feed store, just south of the tracks, has
been notified that renewal of its lease
on the ground occupied by it will not be
granted, and that Section Foreman
Oidne has been notified to move to
new location the shacks occupied by the
Jsp laborers, induce many to believe
that the road will make radical changes
at this point. The only improvements
| that seem to be finally decided upon are
the new depot on the site of the present
depot, house track on the north side of
the main line, and the building of new
passing track several thousand feet long.

SUING BLACKWELL RAILROAD
Koch s. Weinkanf Place Dam
ages at $4,000.
Right Of Way Suit at Cement

The troubles of the Idaho & Washing
ton Northern Railroad in making its
way through Newport are not yet ended.
On Wednesday John Koch and Max
Weinkauff, owners of the Club building
on Fourth street, formerly occupied by
them with saloon and since the en-
forcement of local option, utilized as a
pool room and soft drink establishment,
filed formal complaint in U. S. court in
Spokane, claiming that the railroad
damaged their business to the extent of
$40, 900, and asking damages for that
amount.
In their complaint they allege that
before the railroad came to town Fourth
street was the principal business center
of the town of Newport, and that they
were at that time conducting lucrative
saloon business worth $4,000, taking
into consideration the value of the build
ing and lots. They further allege that
with the advent of the railroad the busi-
ness district has been changed around
and the value of their business and
property has shrunk to $4,000, the smoke,
cinders, ETC., incident with railroad traf-
fic having played havoc with their busi-
ness.
Also that the building is Jared by the
passage of heavy freight trains, that the
street is obstructed for traffic and the
business location no longer desirable
one; that the present conditions consti-
tute common nuisance. The case will
be heard before Judge Whitson in the
April term of the Federal court
Down the river the railroad is also
experiencing difficulty in securing right
of way. Last winter an attempt was
made by the company to purchase the
old Jordan cement plant at Cement,
which property would be crossed by the
track of the Metaline extension. Nego-
tiations failed and attempts to purchase
a right.of-way through the property
have proven futile. The company was
therefore compelled to institute condem-
nation proceedings at Colyille against R.

Wilmington Asheville Highway,

The campaign which Col. Henry
Dockery, editor OF the Rockingham
Post, has begun for the purpose Of
securing a first class roadway from
Wilmington TO Charlotte, and pos
sibly on to Asheville, has attracted
wide and favorable comment. The
vim that has been put into the idea
the feasibility Of the plan, and the
great benefit it would be to the sec
ton through which the road would
pass. make us believe that it will be
carried through. In his last issue
Col. Dockery says:
Elsewhere are published articles
from the Laurinburg Exchange and
the Charlotte Observer with refer
ence TO the Wilmington-to- Charlotte
highway, and suggesting a meeting
for the purpose Of perfecting an or
ganization at Laurinburg, comforting
on us the honor OF naming the date.
This we will do. But first, we
want to get up list of folks who
will attend. When the meeting is
held, every county must have two or
three representatives, and it must be
a 60. This highway can be built,
and will be if We go at it right and
vigorously enough.
THE people, townships and coun-
ties along the line must all do some
thing, and the State will also help.
Newspapers and people, get in
terested."
With this road opened there would
be scores of Automobiles honking
over it daily and nothing would be
a finer advertisement Of this county.
OF course, the road would be used
locally by the people Just as if it
were not a through line, hence the
local people can well afford to fall in
with the idea and help make it a
reality. Union county ought to have
good roads along this line anyway,
skirting the neighborhood Of the
railroad, say by Nashville, Wingate,
Monroe and on up towards Charlotte
to point connecting with the Neck
lenburg roads.
We guarantee that Union will
send representatives to the meeting
at Laurinburg when it is called. Go
ahead Col. Dockery.

Saw Till.

/ Slter tity brlt.
We have referred to providential
partridge stories; we have referred
to bull yearling stories and We have
referred to chicken stories-but the
best OF all stories so far given is a
dog story, and the truth Of it is to
be unquestioned.
At saw mill near Siler City is a
little dog that at first glance would
be mistaken for a duplicate Of the
many worthless pets that give the
aldermen of the larger cities so much
trouble in restricting from the free
dom of the streets. This little dog
is, in reality, very valuable animal.
He has been assigned the duty OF
keeping small stream clear Of saw
dust which is emptied into it from
the mill. Whenever the dust clogs
up the dog jumps in and frantically
scratches and scrapes until the water
is undammed. He keeps this up all
day and never for few seconds is
the flow of that stream checked BY a
congestion of the sawdust. In fact
so valuable and indispensable is he
that his owner has had a pair Of
leather cuffs made so that his good
work cannot be interrupted by any
untoward injury. And it is said
that during a recent dry spell when
the volume of water had been great
ly decreased, the dog was found one
Sunday afternoon far above the mill
industriously digging and clawing
in his efforts TO unearth a hidden
spring. He had been prospecting
since the afternoon before and his
work was rewarded by an increased
flow.
