Placers at Work.

The Golden Scale placer is now
piping about half time. The
snow at the head Of the gulch
from which they take their water
is melting very slowly, and no
warm rains have yet come to
give them a full head.
The Golden Rule placers, on
American river, have commenced
piping, and will have plenty Of
water for some time. This
placer should make a good clean
up this season as they have cut
into the old channel, and are
well equipped.

At present he has a force of

The Flood Of Copper.

All those expectations of an
effective restriction of copper
output seem to have gone glim-
mering. The March statistics
for this country indicate a pro-
duction of about 130, ,000,0 ,000 lbs,
or the greatest monthly addition
to the supply that has ever been
made. The largest previous
monthly figure of production
from the American refneries was
that of last August, when it
amounted to little under 128,-
900, 900 lbs. 1t will be remem-
bered that at that time an agree
ment to curtail was reported,
and it has been supposed that it
went into effect, although the
only two months whose output
figures have reflected the restric-
tion policy at the mines were
January and February, but
March has given us a runaway
record. The question arises: If
there had been no agreement to
curtail, and mining, milling and
smelling had continued through
Iout the closing of 1910 on the

One of the most pleasant sur
prises that's been sprung on the
camp for some little time, took
place last Saturday morning on
the Aziscoos properties, which
are owned by Col. Danforth and
son. While it has been rumored
in camp for the last two weeks
that a stamp mill was to be put
on this property sometime during
the year, there was very few of
us prepared to learn that the
work had started so soon, for
Saturday a force of men were
put to work excavating for the
foundation and we have learned
latter that the mill is at Sites,
and will be brought in just as
soon as it can be gotten over the
roads.
w. Tame, who had charge of
the construction work last year
on the Painter placer diggins on
Salmon river, arrived in camp
last Friday, leaving Saturday
morning with several men, fol-

part of the machinery is at Sal

Dixie, Idaho, April 25.

Development continues on the
Dixie Chief property, and the

ore shoot, from the cross-cut
tunnel, which was driven last
winter, is of a most encouraging
nature, showing considerable
free gold, and the face of the
workings is constantly improv-

Theo. Kruse, representing the
Inland Merchants association of
the Inland Empire, arrived in
camp the latter part of last week
to take over the Booi stock of
general merchandise; also the
Lapp & Duncan stock, and will
consolidate the two stores, NOV
ing the Booi stock to the large
and commodious building on
North Main street. If the plans

Dixie is slated for one of the

teams on the road the entire

fact that the future of the camp

Cone and Wells who are work
ing the N. P. claims at Newsome
are overhauling the Fudge two
stamp mill, and installing a new
gasoline engine. 1t is expected
to have this work completed in
about a week when they will
start milling.
Cone and Wells have driven
187 feet of tunnel and raised GA
feet the past winter, and have
opened up large rich shoot of
ore. The vein averages about
20 inches. and will plate $50.
Taking the vein on the dip,
which is very fiat, there is close
to 100 foot of a back.

followed for some distance, and
this will also be stopped and

McCalley & Mcdonald who
a lease on the Iron Crown have

is very free, and it is expected
that it will plate $40.

CONCENTRATES.


Linseed oil is commonly adul-
terated. The easiest way to test
this is to shake it in flask with
equal parts of nitric acid ard
then allow it to stand for 20
minutes. If the oil is pure, tie
upper layer will be straw colored
but if impure it will be dark
brown.
Phosphorus occurs in two
forms, one red and the other
white. The former is harmless,
the latter is poisonous and in
fiammable. It's use in match
making is attended with great
danger to the workmen; and it
is probable that it's use will he
prohibited by law.
Mixing rich ore with that
which is poor does not make the
low-grade ore any better or any
more profitable. On the other
hand, it robs the rich ore of a
portion of the profit that might
have been made on it. 1t is not
an uncommon thing, however,
to mill ore taken out in the course
of development which cannot be
mined and milled at profit, but
which will yield more than the
cost of milling. In such cases it
is good business to mill all such
ore.
Prospect-shafts should, unless
there is strong reason to the con-
trary, be sunk at the points
along the lode where ore has
been found. Cross-cut tunnels,
vertical shafts in the hanging,
and inclined shafts in the foot,
are proper means of mining
after the form, character, anc
size of the ore-shoots have been
determined. The first essential
to successful mine, however, is
a good ore-shoot, and the best
way to determine its presence OF
absence is to follow the ore.
In testing placer ground by
panning, balance is not always
available. Colors may be pre-
served without danger of loss ol

Notwithstanding the fact that
few weeks ago queen of the Grape

manner, interest seems not to have
tagged and the princess contest
promises to be more spirited and

it was first announced that Kenne-

contest, evidently either craving
for new and greater honors, or thirst

the extreme desirability of week

have also been busy among their

preparations for the entertainment
of the princesses and their entry in

MONEY
FOR kENNEWICk
Controlling Interest in Bank Of
kennewick Sold to Portland
Trust Company

Again the bright future of Ken
newick and its surrounding country
has attracted capital from outside.
The Portland Trust Company, one
of the strongest financial institu-
tions on the Coast, this week ac-
quired the controlling interest in
the Bank of Kennewick, and ar
rangements have been made for
materially increasing the capital of
that institution.
Emery Olmstead, vice-president
and manager of the Portland con-
Germ, and Chas. M. Hemphill, also of
Portland, were in the city this week
completing the deal. Mr.. Olmstead
will succeed H. A. Howe as presi-
dent Of the bank and Mr.. Hemphill
will be the new cashier, succeeding
DR.. C. B. Alexander who will retire
with a view of returning to the
practice of his profession. DIR.
Alexander retains his interest of
stockholder in the business and will
for some time devote himself to
giving the new cashier a chance to
become acquainted with the towns
people and assist in familiarizing
him with the conditions in the city
andsurrounding country. No other
changes in the officers of the bank
are contemplated a. the present
time.
Mr.. Hemphill lately came to
Portland from Michigan. He has
had wide experience in country as
well as city banks, having held
cashierships in banks in his former
state as well as in Idaho.
DIR. Alexander, who has had the,
management of the bank for the
past eight months, is highly graft
fled with his success in interesting
the Portland people to invest here.
Although, since taking charge OF
the local bank, he has materially
strengthened and increased the use
fulness of that institution, he has
felt hampered by the lack of capital
to adequately care for the needs of
the bank s widening circle Of clients.
The new connection gives local bus
mess circles access to capital beyond
all present needs and will undOubt-
edly work for great good in the
city's progress.
