STRIKE ON CHEWAWA TUNNEL
Forty Feet i'm Ore and Extent Not
Known-Galena Predominates.

Some three weeks ago some re-
turning miners from the camp of
the Chewawa Lead and Smelling Co.
in the Red Mountain district, brought
news of strike that had been made
in the Chewawa tunnel. The infor-
nation was from such a source and
of such a nature that this paper
would not then give definite informa-
ton of the extent or character of the
strike
From J. E. Praul, mining boss,
who came down from the camp the
first of last week, we learn that the
strike is one of great Importance and
will undoubtedly put the Chewawa in
the shipping class of mines. The
ore body was gone into some forty
feet without crossing it and it is
therefore not known just how much
farther it extends. Several specimens
shown by Mr.. Praul. an experienced
miner, show that galena predomin-
ates. Further progress may show that
it will turn into solid body of ga
lena. Mr.. Praul confidently believes
that the mineral will show value of
500 or more per ton. When the
large body of mineral is taken into
consideration the extent and import
ance of the strike may be easily TAX
en- into account. The strike was
made just about where Mr.. Ellis told
the writer last September the ore
would be encountered and confirms
what this paper has before stated,
that Mr.. Ellis is one of the most re-
liable mining engineers in the state
He always professed unbounded faith
in the Red Mountain district and it
gives us great pleasure to state that
his judgment has been confirmed
The Importance of the strike can
not be over-estimated The tunnel
is in good shape and amply large for
working purposes. With the ship
ment of ore, which will certainly be-
gin with the opening of transporta-
ton in the spring, new era in min
ing in Chelan county will begin. Men
can then engage in mining with con-
fidence in the outcome. 1t will then
be easier to interest capital in devel-
opment work.-Echo, Leavenworth.

NORTH COAST At
PRIEST RAPIDS
SHEEP MEN REPORT THAT STRA-
HORN HAS A BIG CREW OF MEN
WORKING ALONG COLUMBIA
RIVER.

Ellensburg, Jan. 14-Sheep men
and stock growers who have inter
ests in the Priest Rapids country
have brought to Ellensburg reports OF
considerable government and rail
road activity in that section. One
said that the North Coast railway
was going to do more work near
Priest Rapids this year than in any
other section
A consignment of construction ma
terial, consisting of a donkey engine
dredge, rails and cars arrived at the
head of Priest Rapids the latter part
of last week The men in charge OF
the material refuse to state what rail-
road they are working for, but it is
generally believed that it belongs to
the Strahorn interests. Extensive
surveys have been made by the North
Coast in the. Priest Rapids country
1t is reported that a party of gov
eminent engineers is camped at
Priest Rapids and making that their
headquarters while running levels
and making photographed observa-
tions along the Columbia river. 1t
Is believed that the government is
doing this preliminary work with the
object III view of beginning work on
the opening up of the river for sew
eral hundred miles from the mouth
into the Okanogan country.
NJ. Doolin, who three years ago
brought to Ellensburg the first re-
port of the arrival of the Milwaukee
locating party in the Columbia river
district. said that the mysterious
party of engineers who worked in the
Hanson canyon last summer were
North Coast men. He said this party
ran line for a short distance into
the Badger pocket country and ended
il there
Mr.. DOOlin says that when Robert
Strahorn, president of the North
Coast road, was in Ellensburg in De-
cember, he visited the Badger pocket
district and inspected this line
Railroad men and others who are
informed in railroad affairs believe
that the rumored North Coast opera
tlOnS in this vicinity are the cause
of the Northern Pacifics frantic
haste in rushing three parties of en-
gineers to do locating work on the
Lind cutoff.

The report was current on the
street this week that the Stark Bros
Nursery Co., the originators of the
Delicious apple, was buying up all the
scions in the valley and burning them
to prevent other companies from Sc
curing them. T. Fl. Atkinson, the
local representative of the big east
ern nursery company, stated yester-
day that this report was absolutely
false. and that his company was not
paying SIS per thousand for the scions
and then burning them. and that his
company was simply buying what was
needed in the growing of the Deli
cious tree.

Spent Day in Charleston.

Fridays News and Courier had
the following on its local page which
is of interest to Orangeburgers gen.
orally. THE Hon. Samuel Dibble
arrived in this city this morning
from Orangeburg in his automobile.
after delightful ride Of three hours
and twenty minutes, which seems to
be the schedule automobile time be-
tween Charleston and Orangeburg,
a distance of seventy-nine miles.
Mr.. Dibble reports great enthusl-
asm over the Charleston good roads
rally all along the route. Orange
burg expects to bring down forty-tive
touring cars to the rally, full Of good
roads enthusiasts, besides a large
contingent who will come by rail.
1t is proposed to invite all the auto
mobilists from Florence, Sumter, CO.
lumbia, Augusta and intermediate
points to rendezvous at Orangeburg
on Mondey July II when the mid
day control will be made. A lun-
cheon will be served by the people
of Orange burg at | O'Clock, and the
stately procession of one hundred
and fifty or two hundred automo-
biles will proceed to Charleston ar
irving there about five o'clock P. NJ.
This will be delightful break in
the journey and the hospitality of
Orangeburg will doubtless be much
appreciated.

The Orangeburg correspondent to

fire chief, returned from the fire
mems tournament at Sumter today
with the Elliott Hook and Ladder
Fire Company Squad. Capt. Dblble
was reelected treasurer of the State
association, but what the captain
was chiefly delighted with was the
magnificent showing made by the
Orangeburg representatives with
their handsome truck and horses.
The crowds at Sumter were amaz-
ed at the wonderful speed made by
the Elliotts in an exhibition run, The
Orangeburg truck did not enter any
of the. races for the reason that
there were no other fire apparatus
at the tournament that was in their
class. The races were between reels
and rot between hook and ladder
trucks.
In an exhibition run the Elliots
made a 2O0-yards dash, from a

IS seconds made by the fastest reel
in the races. The Orangeburg truck
carried a full load and weighed over
1900 more pounds than the prize

THE NEW JUDGE.
Who VIII Take, the Place Of Judge
Cfias. G. Dantzlr?

The Orangeburg correspondent of
the News and Courier says:
How and by whom the vacancy,
now existing in the rostec of Circuit
Judges of the State, and caused by
the death of the lamented Charles
G. Dantzler, will be filled is receiv-
ing considerable attention her> at
the hands of those most interested.
Because of the profound respect
entertained from the memory OF the
deceased Judge, there has been 40
unseemly haste in this matter. nor
is there likely to be any scramble
for the position by his brethren OF
the Bar of this county. But the va
cancy must be filed and omeone
must be willing to accept; there
fore, several names have been can
vassed, and among them, it is un-
dersrood, are those of Solicitor Hill
debrand and Judge of Probate Robt.
E. Copes, who would accept the Off
ce at the hands of the Legislature.
There seems to be some difference
Of opinion as to the power Of the
Governor in the premises. Shall
he appoint for a definite time, i. e.,
until the convening of the Legisla-
ture next January, or is the case
covered by the provisions of the Act
authorizing the appointment of the
special Judge?
Both of the gentlemen named now
hold public Office, and it is doubtful
II either would resign to secure the
for brief period.
This, however, is not now known
definitely, but will be disclosed in
short time if rumors heard upon the
streets are correct.
Whether or not this Bar will con-
slider the question of an appointee in
formal meeting is not known by the
but further rumor
has it that there will be no formal
consideration of the matter by the
Bar, and that individual members
will be left absolutely free to en-
dorse whom they may see fit.
But, after all, Orangeburg is only
a part of the 1st circuit, and the re-
port here is to the effect that Mr..
Legare Walker, of Summerville, will
seek the Judgeship, and there may
be still some others. The outcome
is awaited with interest"
