CHECK SALMON
RIVER SURVEY
Railroad Company Now Per-
fecting Line.


The Gilmore & Pittsburg Rail-
road company is now engaged in
checking the survey on the Sal
mon river and parties engaged
in the work are responsible for
the statement that the plans of
the company provide for early
construction on the line between
Salmon City and Lewiston.
One of the engineers, who has
been engaged in this work, ar
rived in Lewiston recently from
the mouth of the Salmon river
where he was picked up by the
Asotin gasoline launch while re-
turning from the upper river.
The work now being performed
consists of checking the survey
made by Engineer Roberts a year
ago, and at points minor changes
in the line wilN be made with a
view of reducing the cost of con-
struction. Several men will be
secured to be taken to the Sal
mon river to assist in the work.

A WONDER
Large Body Of Ore is
In Sight.
IS NOW in SHAPE TO PRODUCE
Owners Will do More Devel-
opment Work.
IS NOW in SHAPE TO PRODUCE

The we'll known Hercules prop
erty, situated about Is miles east
of Elk City, and owned by john
son and Comley, has now blocked
out large and rich shoot of ore.
The Hercules group of six
claims, has a large amount of
development work done on them,
and is now in that state where
the owners can commence to de-
rive some revenue from their
work.
Aside from a great deal Of sur
face work, they have a cross-cut
tunnel 405 ft. which gives a
depth of 230 fit. On this tunnel
level they have drifted on the
vein, both north and south some
200 it., where there is exposed
some very rich ore, in a six foot
vein, but did not cut the ore
shoot that was exposed on the
surface.
The distance to raise from the
main tunnel level seemed to
great for two prospectors to un-
dertake, so another tunnel was
driven that cut the vein 90 ft.
below the apex. Here a station
was cut and a raise started,
following the ore, and this week
the raise broke through the sur
face.
After the first set from the
station, the raise was in an ex-
cellent grade of sulphide ore,
some of it highly oxidized. which
pans well, and has width OF
6 fit. The vein stands nearly
straight, dipping about so de-
grees to the south, while the ole
shoot has a pitch of some &C
degrees to the east.
The raise has been thoroughly
sampled and the samples are now
in the hands of the assayer, ard
as soon as they are turned out
will be published.
1t is the intention of the owner s
to raise from the main tunne,
j, level to connect with the raise
just completed, and then drift
east until the ore shoot is caught
when they will be in shape to
show a good well developed
property.

Last Chance Working.

The Last Chance group of
claims, owned by James Larsen
and others, situated about one
and half miles north of Elk, is
getting some good ore. The
tunnel is now in $50 it., and
while not gaining much depth,
is following the ore, so that when
the lower tunnel is driven the
operators will know where they
are at.

PLACER MINING
ON THE SALMON
Company Making Extensive
Plans for Season.

The Salmon River Mining Co.,
under the management of ]. R.
Painter is putting in very COM
plete plant on their ground near
the Eakin bar, IA miles from
Dixie. The company own the
Eakin bar and use this as a home
ranch and headquarters. The
following taken from the Salmon
City Recorder, gives some idea
of the magnitude of the work:
''The designation of captain as
prefix to the name Of Harry
Gulkie is no longer applicable, as
he is now an admiral with all the
honors and emoluments attached
thereto. In place of Harry TAX
ing a single vessel through the
troubled and dangerous waters
of the Salmon he will have charge
of flotilla consisting of at least
eight vessels, possibly in addi-
ton to Admiral Gulkie's flag
ship.
"The workmen are now con-
structing a fleet of eight vessels
of ten thousand tons burden, and
before the accumulated freight
is loaded it may require two or
three more. The freight is des-
tined for Eakin's ranch, a dis
tance down the river of $50
miles. The ranch is on the other
side of the box canyon. Each
boat will have at least two men
in charge, the entire troop under
the supervision Of Harry.
''This large shipment of freight
consisting of between 60 and 80
thousand pounds, consists of
hydraulic machinery and supplies
for a large placer proposition.
The placer mine company is COM
posed of Philadelphia capitalists
and known as the Salmon River
Mining Co. The representative
of the company, H. Kohlman, is
in the city experimenting the
construction of the boats and at
tending to the shipping of the
machinery.
"The shipment consists of a
large Pelton water wheel, Edison
generator, hydraulic pumps. pip
ing and all other kinds of machi-
merry supplies for the use of the
large force of employees while
the machinery is being installed
will also be shipped through this
city. Future supplies for the
camp, however, will be brought
in the other way, as the camp is
some fourteen miles from Dixie,
a road or at least trail is now
constructed from that point to
the Salmon river.
In past years a trip through
! the canyon has been considered
a dangerous proposition, and no
doubt is dangerous. to one who

RAID. HOUSES.
Idaho County Officials Employ
New Law.

The search and seizure law
was brought into use last Satur-
day at Grangeville by Sheriff ].
l. Overman and all of the estab-
lishments suspected of being en-
gagged in the illicit liquor traffic
were raided by the sheriff and
nine deputies, seven of whom
were engaged specially for the
occasion. Liquor was found at
the Imperial and Arlington hotels
and as a result the proprietors,
Frank Tamblyn and Charles
Johnson will be given a prelimi-
nary examination before Probate
Judge De Haven.
The raid came as complete
surprise and was pulled off when
many of the citizens were at the
ball park Witnessing the ball
game. 1t is stated the warrants
under which the raid was con-
Quoted, were secured upon the
application Of Sheriff Overman.

Property in Ten Mile to
Be Operated.
IS WELL EQUIPPED FOR WORK
Company to Be Formed to
Develop Other Property.

VIM. Newton, Chas. Whipple,
Bert Jones, Geo. Mcdonald, F.
F. Smith and Conrad Smith have
taken a lease on the Anaconda
mine, in the Ten Mile district,
for one year.
The Anaconda is one of the
we'll known properties of this
section, and was developed quite
extensively some four or five
years ago by the Graham-Ross
company.
The larger part Of this work
consists Of a 900 foot cross-cut
tunnel having a 450 ft. depth
under the apex of the vein. The
tunnel never cut the lode, and
the company relinquished to the
original owners.
There is also a shaft down 100
it,, with station at the 60 ft.
level. The ore above the 90 ft.
was stopped for some distance
each side Of the shaft, and
milled.
1t is the intention now to get
the ore from the 100 ft. level,
where the vein shows strong,
and carries high values. The
shaft is equipped with a good
whim, shaft-house and ore bins.
The vein on the 100 ft. level is
about ft. wide with a 80 inch
pay streak, and the ore is very
free and is said to plate SO.
The mill, which is a five-stamp
battery, driven by steam, is sit
uated at the mouth of the cross
cut tunnel, and is about one-half
mile by road from the shaft-house
from where the ore will have to
be hauled. Near the mill are the
office, boarding house, stables,
assay office and other buildings,
all of which are in good condi-
ton.
1t is not expected that the
lessees will be ready to start the
mill for some days, as it will
take some time to get things in
shape, and it is the intention te
put in two Frue 'vanners. and
make other improvements.
While it is not specified in the
lease, it is understood that the
lessees will raise from the cross
cut tunnel to the shaft, and eX-
pect to get ore before they make
connection. Should they do this
it will materially increase the
earnings by cutting down the ex-
pense Of the hauling.
1t is the intention of the men
taking the lease to form COM
pany under the caption of the
Idaho Leasing and Exploration
company, and take hold of other
properties and work them on a
royalty.

Keeping a defective tool in
operation does not pay; nor is it
to the interest of the employee,
particularly if he is paid by the
job, to use imperfect apparatus
which reduces his possible earn
ings. On the other hand, it is
by no means seldom that work
men are found who have their
choice of the best materials and
apparatus and who possess the
intelligence to apply these cor
rectly, showing a striking disre-
gard for their own safety and
that of others, especially in franz
ing structures of a temporary
nature.
