MuIIan Mans Many Friends Predict
His Election BY . Very
Large Majority.

Mullan for commissioner In the third

many friends, regardless Of party. In
Mullan, but to a very large number
of people in every part of the county.
He belongs to the whole county, and
Is one Of It's pioneer and most highly
respected citizens.
Mr.. McRae came to the district 20
years ago and settled In Mullan. He
has been engaged in the livery bust
ness practically all Of that time, and
is heavily interested in mining. Max
ing money In the business and put
ting 1t into mines." is the way he sums
UP his experience. This Is true. and
some Of the best properties and pros
poets in the district have been pro-
NOTED with his aid. He is familiar
with every section Of the county and
no one is better able to judge Of its
needs.
Mr.. McRae's success Is attributable
to his industry and economy. He pos

COEUR D'ALENERS TO
COMPETE N DRILLING
CONTEST At SPOKANE
BIGGEST PURSE EVER OFFERED
WILL ATTRACT DRILLERs
OF NORTHWEST.
Event Will Be One Of the Features Of
Entertainment Planned for Dele
gates to the Next Session Of the
American Mining Congress.

The thousands Of delegates and
others who attend the fifteenth annual
session of the American Mining con-
gress in Spokane in the latter part OF
November will witness one of the
greatest rock drilling contests ever
held in the United States and they will
see some Of the crack drillers from
the Occur d'Alenes In action. The
purse will be $4,000 and the plan an
nounced is to eliminate all but the
very best teams from Idaho, Washing
ton, Montana, Utah, Nevada and Brit
ish Columbia. The championship will
be awarded to the state whose men
make the best showing, while the prize
money will be sufficient in amount to
bring the best drillers from each dis
trict. Each competing team will be re-
juired to pay an entrance fee Of $500
The $4,000 purse will be divided among
the winners in proportions to be de-
termined upon later, and in way that
will be acceptable to the men who
drill.
Sidney Norman Of Spokane, whose
efforts are counting in behalf of the
congress, was in Wallace the first OF
the week and devoted considerable
time to getting up local interest in
the drilling contest. AS result 1t Is
safe to say the Occur d'Alenes will
send it's best pair of drillers and the
visitors will see men in action who are
worthy to represent the district.
Mr.. Norman stated that Washington
mining men are deeply interested and
that he is in communication with
mining men in other states, notably
George Wingfield of Nevada. members
Of the Montana section of the mining
congress at Butte and of the Utah
section at Salt Lake. All are enthusi-
astic in regard to the contest and are
giving their encouragement in sub
stantial way.

REINDEER AND COPPER
QUEEN CONSOLIDATE
TWO PROPERTIES NEAR MuLLAN
TO BE WORKED THROUGH
FORMERS TUNNEL.
New Company viii b incorporated
for 100000 sharss-Work Will Be
Started on Vein and Pushed Rapid.
(From Mullan Progress)

A deal is on to consolidate both the
Reindeer and Copper Queen proper
ties at Mullan which will result In
working both properties through the
deep tunnel Of the Reindeer. Both
companies have forwarded circular
letters to their stockholders outlining
the plan and while the consolidation
is not yet completed it is expected
hat 1t will be In short time and the
development work started off on a
new basis. The new company will be
Incorporated for 100000 shares, the
stockholders In the present individual
companies to receive share for share
in the new company in exchange for
their holdings in the old companies.
Both properties are on the same
vein and both have good showings of
ore, an equal number of claims and
an equal amount Of stock. The vein
Is copper zone which has been de-
veloped to considerable depth by the
Reindeer company in tunnel 5000
feet in length and shoot Of milling
ore opened. Several carloads have
been shipped with favorable returns
The idea Of the present consolidation
Is to get more ground on the vein
which is owned by the Copper Queen
company. 1t is now necessary for the
Reindeer to sink in order to obtain
more and better ore and by CONSOLE
dating with the Copper Queen it will
be possible to drive east on the vein
underneath an excellent showing of
copper ore which will be tapped at
great depth. The work will start on
the vein and will be in ore from the
beginning. 1t is the intention to pro-
coed with the development work as
fast as possible.
The new company will have in the
neighborhood of 100000 shares Of
stock in it's treasury. The work will
proceed under a showing of copper
ore which assays % per cent copper
on the surface The work in the Rein
has shown that the main body Of ore
Is dipping east and Is close to the d.
viding lines of the two companies
which fact makes It advantageous
and almost necessary that a consol-
idation Of the two companies be made
The new company will be equipped
with a compressor and drills and all
necessary mine buildings and will be
in shape to begin immediate opera
lions.

George H. Heller Of Osburn has
been In Wallace for several days,

Milling company's property on Placer
creek, where active work will be car
ried on as long as weather conditions
permit. The group Is about five miles
from Wallace and adjoins the Vienna
& International on the east. The
showing disclosed by the work already
done Is encouraging and the company
proposes to expend the money on hand
a considerable sum. in not only doing
the assessment work but in develop
ing the claims as far this year as pos
sible.
Mr.. Heller, who Is secretary and
manager for the company, informs
The Miner that the buildings destroy
ed by the forest fire two years ago
have been replaced and are better than
those lost. 1t is the intention to keep
up the work Of development as active
ly as the showing warrants and with
the work to be done on the Vienna &
International there will be an active
camp in this vicinity next year. Dan
Sebastian is president of the Arctic
company, Henry LaLand, vice presi-
dent; Mrs. e. Heller, treasurer and

WORK HAS BEEN RESUMED
ON THE WEST NINE MILE.
Property Owned by Local People Will
BE Developed. Operations Hav.
ing Been Begun.

The West Nine Mile, promising
prospect on Nine Mile creek, four
miles from Wallace, will be developed
to considerable extent during the
early winter. the work including that
necessary for assessment, but more
extensive, in accordance with the
plans recently decided upon.
The property is new one, but has
been worked in the past, tunnel hav-
ing been carried 400 feet before opera

ERNiNG PAST WORK.
Mill VIII Be Started About First Of
ovember-BeIief in Depth to Vein
Seems Established Beyond Doubt
Work to Be Rushed.

The long expected strike. in the
Black Horse property in the Murray
district, was made last Friday and
from reports that have. been brought
to Wallace 1t Is even of more import
ance and greater extent than had been
anticipated. 1t Is particularly pleas
ing event in that 1t confirms the the
cries entertained by the management
and upon which work has been done,
as to the depth to the vein In brief,
the management now knows beyond
reasonable doubt, just where they are
"at," and what steps are necessary
for mining on an extensive and pro-
fitable scale.
Superintendent Sorenson, In tele-
phone message to The Miner yester-
day stated that he was In no degree
disappointed with the further devel-
opment Of the main vein, for he be-
lieves that the body of ore encoun-
tered in the No. intermediate tunnel.
1T certainly looks fine and is hold
ing up good and strong" he said. I'VE
now have ore in four different places
and will soon be getting 1t out. We
started work on the mill as soon as
the fact Of the strike was known, ex-
pecting to have it in working order
by the 2Sth. One or two slight OBJ
stacles that could not be foreseen
will cause delay Of few days long
er, but the mill will be running OH

Depth Is Proven.
The ore body. believed to be the
main vein, which was opened up In
four feet wide ard carries Is to 20
inches of solid ore. The discovery
proves that there Is an additional 500
feet Of depth on the vein, following
the 500 feet obtained in the upper
workings, total Of 500 feet
When the management was assum-
ed by President Brinker and Superin-
tendent A. l.. Sorenson, they decided
to abandon the plan under which the
former management labored, that of
raising on what Is now practically
proven to be blind ledge. Efforts
have of late been directed to working
In an upraise between the No. 2 and
No. 8 levels, with intermediate cross
cuts. The new strike is within few
feet Of the mouth Of the raise and
not more than so feet distant in the
two crosscuts from the No. tunnel.
