uSTON IS WORKING
AGAIN AFTER THREE
MONTHS SHUTDOWN
BIG CREEK MINE ONCE MORE is
SCENE OF AcTIvITY-WiLL
RUN ALL WINTER.
Tinbering in Lower Tunnel Under
Way-Propsrty Lost in Forest Fires
Has All Been Replaced and Equip
ment Is First Class.

| KELLOGG, Dec. Especial to the
! Miner) The Liston Mining company
! located five miles up Big creek, has
resumed operations after a shut down
, of three months At present six men
are employed and the work is confined
to timberrg at different places in the
lower tunnel. 1t is the intention of
the management to continue work
throughout the winter and later will
add to the force of men. Just previ-
Gus to closing down 200 cords of wood
were cut for the compressor boiler and
this is being hauled to the mine.
At the time Of closing down in Sep
TENDER the property was looking eX-
,eptionally good and the appearance
If the face of the tunnel indicated that
ore would be encountered at any mo-
nent. The tunnel is 1900 feet in length
md has good depth The Liston has
the strongest outcrop of any of the
Big creek properties. 1t is an immense
iron capped ledge and is on the south
rim of the big Revette quartzite dyke
which cuts across the head of the
three forks of Big creek. The ledge
is close to the slate formation, in
places not over 300 feet, and can be
distinctly seen on the surface across
the entire group of claims of the COM
pany. The tunnel has not yet reach
ed point where it is expected ore
will be encountered.
The Liston was heavy loser in the
forest fires of two years ago. All the
buildings and the compressor were de-
stroyed, nothing being saved This
seriously retarded the development Of
the property for time. At the present
time 1t is the best equipped property
operating on Big creek.
Matt Baumgartner of Spokane, man
ager of the company, is now in Chicago
on business connected with the Liston
and is expected home in the next few
days. The work at the mine is in
charge Of Fred Baumgartner.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE,
HIS FOURTH ANNUAL,
TO CONGRESS TUESDAY
EXPRESSES PRIDE IN EXPANSION
OF TRADE AS RESULT OF
FOREIGN POLICIES.
Sounds Note Of Warning to European
Powers-AppeaIs for Executive and
Congressional Action for Opening
Up of New Markets to Y. S.

A note of warning to European pow
ers which by indirect means continue
to discriminate against American
trade.
A strong appeal to the congress to
uplift the great foreign policies OF
America above mere questions Of par
tizanship.
A triumphant vindication of the di-
p'onacy of the administration, which
is characterized as that of dollars
versus bullets"
A masterful pride in the enormous
expansion of American trade as a re-
salt of the foreign policies Of his aG-
ADMINISTRATION.
An earnest appeal for joint action
by congress and the executive to open
new markets for American industries.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The above
are the more striking features Of
President Tafts fourth annual mes
sage to congress The message is the
first Of series of such communiCa-
lions which he will make to congress
in the early days of the session and
deals entirely with the foreign rela-
tions of the United States.
Beginning with the usual reference
to the existing good relations with
foreign powers, the president adds
that these have been strengthened by
American citizens, or interests, where
ever it may have been denied, and a
stronger emphasis of the need of mu
tuality in commercial and other rela-
lions.
For the first time in its history
says the president the state depart
ment has obtained substantially the
most favored nation treatment from
all of the countries of the world
Therefore, he saws that it Is only nat
ural that competitive countries should
view with some concern the expansion
of orr commerce. Hence the warning;
IF in some instances the measures
taken by them to meet it are not en-
tirely equitable, remedy should be
found"
To this end the president strongly
recommends the enactment of the bill
recommended by Secretary Knox last
December, permitting the government
instead of imposing the full maximum
rates of duty against discriminating
countries. to apply a graduated scale
of duties up to the maximum of Is
per cent.
In Regard to Tariff.
IL can not too strongly recommend
to the congress the passage of some
such enabling measure as the bill

KINGSTON, Idaho, Dec. 4.---(Specia
to the Miner).--A section Of the Cocul

ton Of mining men and receiving con
siderable capital for development is
the west fork of Pine creek. The worl,
now going on Is of substantial nat

tons that are necessary for the max
ing of ore bodies than the entire Pine
creek region.
The past summer the Palisades
Mining company was incorporated at
Occur d'Alene and took over group
" Vi6"t eidniiS near the IWln peaks
at the very head of the west fork of
Pine creek, a distance of about IA
miles from the south of Pine creek.
The claims were originally owned by
Pat Whelan, J. r. Hegby, Theodore
Smith and Mr.. VanCurren, all resi-
dents in the vicinity Of Cataldo These
gentlemen, together with Occur
dAlene and Spokane people, are the
incorporators of the company. The
original owners have contributed con-
siderable money to the treasury, show
ing confidence in their own property
The company is Incorporated for L.
100000 shares and 100000 shares have
been placed in the treasury for devel-
opment purposes.
During the past month the company
has been preparing for active work. A
large amount of supplies and machn-
cry have been taken up Pine creek to
the property. A two-drill air COM
pressor is now on the ground and is
being installed by a representative of
the Halliday Machinery company of
Spokane. Water power will be used
to run the compressor.
1t is the intention of the company |
to drive a crosscut tunnel $500 feet in |
length. which at the intersection of
the lead will give a depth of 1900 feet
The formation is Burke quartzite
and the ground is traversed by
strong lead with an immense iron out
crop, which shows lead and silver.
The development work will not get
under Roadway till the first of the year
and the management will keep two
shifts Of miners at work. The Pail
sades Is reached by good wagon road
from Pine creek spur to the railroad.
Some time ago Messrs. Whelan.
