TARIFF AND COST OF LIVING.
Difference Between Promise and Per
formance Now Evident.
philadelphia Press

/
1t is announced at Washington that
there is to be thorough investigation
into the cause Of high prices. This is
almost unbelievable. Why investigate
something that does not exist? High
prices-why, there is no such thing!
They were to perish on the enactment
of the new tariff law. The bill was
passed for that purpose. We have Mr.
new tariff order of things a high price
was to be thing as rare as the dino
saur or the pterodactyl or other crea-
lures of the dim and distant past
Investigate the cause of high prices
Why, the cause was known to the
country. The democratic party told it
In the most fervid words Of type and
throat they declared that the tariff
was the one and only cause. Cut down
the tariff and low prices would follow
as the night the day. Put them in
power and the cost of living woul1
have a Humpty Dumpty fall, and, like
that tabled gentleman, "all the kings
horses and all the kings men" could
not restore it to it's high wall again.
The country listened to the siren
song Of democracy which told how
prices would fall and the earnings IF
labor remain the same. 1t seemed tc
believe that a miracle could be work.
oS hat 6a 20 hp
hampered and wages and employment
keep on just the same. There were
those who were rash enough to advise
that an inquiry into the real cause OF
high prices be made before action was
taken. But such the democrats laugh
ed to scorn. The country dismissed
its political physicians. the ones viii;
had brought it safely through many {
period Of danger, and put itself under
the care of a new doctor and his guar
anteed remedy of tariff revision.
And now the medicine turns out to
be quack remedy. No cure has been
worked, no benefit has been gained.
Indeed, the patient shows symptoms
worse than before. There is already
loss of industrial vitality, there is
poor money circulation, the prosper
ity pulse is weaker and the business
heart Is in need of artificial stimulant.
How great is the difference between
promise and performance! How differ
ent the picture from that of few
months ago when with flags flying and
people cheering the name Of Woodrow
Wilson was affixed to a bill which was
to be a panacea for all cost of-living
Ills! Already the plating has worn off
this measure of alleged pure gold-the
brass shows through. Prices are ever
higher than before. There are dark
clouds where sunshine was scheduled.
So now an investigation will be made
as to the cause. 1t is apparent even
to the democrats that a high tariff
does not make high prices. Some other
cause must be found The new tariff
law has failed in its supreme test. And
there has been established the great
fact that to act first and to investigate
afterward as to the need of action, Is
the policy of those who are now our
rulers.

GREAT POSSIBILITIES
Of THE HUNTER MINE
ECDY THAT GlVEs
GREAT PROMISE WITH
DEPTH.

The Hunter mine at Mulan is the
Oldest location in Hunter mining dis.
trict, and If current we'll founded re-
ports are correct and improvement
with depth continues as it has in 9th.
9r great Occur d'Alene mines, it may
be the biggest mine in this camp 81
tremendous ore bodies, or at least
second to none other
improvement With Depth.
The Hunter is by no means a deer
mine now, as mining goes in the Coeul
d'Alenes. Below the mill level it is
but 600 feet and this is compare tivel,
new. In all the years it has beea pro.
cuciive the ore consumed has come
from above this tunnel But practic.
ally as soon as sinking begun or as
soon as ground below begun to be
opened, 1t was evident that the Hunte,
was bigger mine than ever. And al
the various stages of its limited depth
there has been notable Improvement
The principal part Of the ore mined
Is from the footwall, and this body
is described by those familiar with the
workings as a much better grade than
the average of that mined above.
Great Orc Body Expected.
But in addition to this body Of ship
pns and milling ore there is said t.
be lcineralized bcdy. extending to-.
ward the hanging WALL from 225 to 2.j
feet in width. This Is not a payinc
grade Of milling 're. but there are at
times bunches of pay ore mined from
it. In .he three levels opened, 200, 4J0
ana coo 'cot, 1t has been crosscut wish
results that are most encouraging
and which open wide range Of possi-
bilities. 1t is said there is a marked
increase In the naturalization Of that
on the 400 over that in the 200-foo,
level, and that an equal increase is
plain on the 600 over the 400.
Naturally with still further depth
a body of merchantable ore. possibly
of enormous dimensions. is reason
ably expected.
AS it is, the Hunter is a great mine
and promises to be steady produces
for many years to come. but in addi-
|tion there seems to be a reasonable
|chance that it will develop one Of the
exceptionally large ore bodies OF the
west.
Federal Experts Examine It.
Some months ago plans were drawn
for 1000-ton concentrator for the
property. Nothing of the company's
intention as to the construction OF
this has been made public.
It is also known that for months
past Federal company officials have
examined the property with view to
purchase Occasionally rumors that
such a deal is to be consummated are
circulated, but nothing definite seems
to have been done so far.

PROGRESS AT THE FRISCO.
Much Accomplished and Much Re
mains to Be Done.

About so men are employed at the
Frisco in all branches Of the work now
under way. Retimbering the shaft Is
necessarily a slow job and it will re-
quire several months to complete 1t.
About 400 feet yet remains to be re-
tlmbered, and until. this Is completed
little can be accomplished in the levels
leading from the shaft.
The new mill, or rather the old
Black Bear mill, Is rapidly nearing
completion. New machinery has been
added and much of the machinery
from the Frisco mill has beeH trans
ferred with the result that the Black
Bear mill will compare favorably with
others in the district of modern con =
struction. 1t is not likely that actual
mining operations will begin at the
Frisco before spring,

PRODUCTION Of ORE
At HERCULES MINE
RECORD FOR THE MONTH or NO
VEMBER A RECORD.
BREAKER.

Information from a source which Is
reliable is to the effect that the No
vember record of production Of the
Hercules mine exceeded anything in
the history Of that property, and from
the standpoint Of profit probably sur
passed that Of any mine in the camp
for any one month during the past
several years.
Hercules Ore High Grade.
Total shipments of the Hercules
during November were near 5000 tons
OF this, 45 carloads, or practically 1000
tons, are said to have been sorted ore
practically the clean shipping product
and shipped ore from the Hercules is
usually of a much higher grade than
the average of the Coeur dAlenes
And so, too, are the concentrates a
superior grade,
AS described by those familiar with
the workings of the mine the main
part of the present ore supply comes
from slopes and drifts run from a $50
foot shaft sunk below No. 4 tunnel.
This shaft will later on be connected
with raise from the long tunnel now
being driven from the Canyon creek
level at Burke, and originally started
by the Humming Bird company. The
distance between this tunnel and No.
4 is near 500 feet perpendicular.
Record Monthly Profit.
1t is said further by parties who
know the value Of the shipping pro-
duct of the Hercules that the Novem-
ber output netted the owners during
November a sum over $2250O0 possi-
bly, approaching closely a quarter of a
million dollars. The mine is private
ly owned, and detail reports are not
given out to the public, but it may be
depended on that the above figures do
not vary materially from the correct
ones.
The body of ore, in quantity and
quality, in the lowest present work
ngs of the mine, $50 feet below No.
is said to surpass anything heretofore
known in the history Of the property.
1t is described as 40 feet wide, prac-
tically one-third clean ore and the
remainder very high grade milling
product.
Long Life Of Mine.
Since the first striking of superior
grade Of ore in the Hercules, after 10
years Of unrewarded effort, the mine
has proved a wonder-an increasing
wonder as depth has been attained
1t is the highest mine in the Occur
d'Alenes. It has years of prosperous
production yet ahead of it before it
reaches point 800 to 1900 feet lower
where other great paying producers in
the immediate vicinity began to mine
And these latter, from their begin
nings, have records of quarter of a
century Of production and profits.
The life Of the Hercules, judged by
results of the oldest mining in that To-
cality, need cause no worry to owners
Of the present day.

Decision of the United States su-

may not convey hay on its own line
for the purpose Of feeding its own
mules used in the operation of its own
mines without paying itself for the

An IMPORTANT STRIKE
IN CALEDONIA MINE
MUCH SHIPPING ORE FOUND AT
ADDITIONAL DEPTH OF 100
FEET.

An important strike was made in
the Caledonia mine last Sunday night.
which, while not unexpected, is never
theless highly gratifying to the stock
holders and proves beyond speculation
the existence of the great ore body
at an additional depth Of 100 feet. The
strike was made from what is called
the 1000 foot level or Keating tunnel.
This tunnel will eventual cut the
vein, which is dipping away from the
face. The strike was made in raise
started near the face Of the tunnel
How wide the ore shoot Is at the point
of intersection was not known at the
time the report was received, but an
idea is gained by the fact that two
rounds of holes had been shot in the
ore without breaking through IT,.
Another significant fact is that 100
feet directly above the strike the ORE
shoot Is twenty feet wide Fully ono
third of the ore exposed in the strike
is of clean shipping grade
