SNOWSTORM PRODUCES
OVER HALF A MILLION
NETS $14t639-PRo0UcEs COPPER
FOR 1926 CENTS PER POUND
FIGURES OF INTEREST.

The report Of operations at tn
Snowstorm mine and mill was glyei
to the annual meeting Of stockholder
Tuesday evening. 1t has interestin,
/ figures as follows:
There was mined during the veal
39.5i5 tons. OF this 50,64s tons were
concentrated aud 1887 was shipped
crude. The former assayed 275 be,
cent copper and a.23 ounces of silver
the latter S.31 per cent copper and
'5.7S ounces Of silver.
There was marketed $1,000 tons OF
concentrates, shines and crude ore
containing 4,522,6O5 pounds of copper
and 36S,9o6 ounces of silver.
The total receipts Of the company
for the year were $500,96115 Operat-
Ing expenses were $22S,563.S9. Other
expenditures amounted to sSs,s24.o8.
Net earnings were $141,639S1.
The net cost Of production Of cop
per pound is given as 1875 cents
The following development Is report
ed, at cost of $S2.25826 Raises be-
tween Nos. 3 and 4. 445 feet; sinking
below No 4, ia feet; drifting, 429
feet prosecuting, 219 feet.
The concentration Is handling 1000
tons of ore per month. There are 1870
men on the payroll, 105 in the mine
and the balance on the surface and
in the mill.
Much Importance is attached to the
sinking from No. 4. It is expected in
drifting from this to pick up the
faulted ore body.
The Snowstorm Is the only mine in
the Occur dAlenes at the present
lime producing and shipping copper
ore, though there are others rapidly
'eaehing that stage.
The annual election resulted in the
olloWing officers being chosen Leo

WHERE ARE THEY GOING?
Portland Oregonian.

The progressive party registration il
the state Of New York is less than II
per cent of the 10000 votes cast ther'
for Theodore Roosevelt It would ap
pear to be clear that there is no con.
hdence among the progressives them
selves that the party created by Theo-
dore Roosevelt has come to stay.
The same phenomenon of the rapit
subsistence of the progressive part,
movement is visible in Oregon. Mr.
Roosevelt, as a candidate for presi-
dent, received $1,000 votes; yet the
total progressive registration in Ore
gon up to May II, 1913 while the fever
Of revolt was still running high, was
county after the progressive party had
q legal existence and the registration
books had been reopened, the total
supplemental enrolment was as fol-
lows: Republican, 1861; democratic
G963; progressive, 3o37; Independent.
1913; prohibitionist. 917; socialist, 551
The progressives, ii will be seen, were
about 10 per cent of the total, and
about 20 per cent of the republican
enrolment. The figures under the
new permanent registration are i'm
perfect, but they seem to give about
the same proportions The progress
sve party showing is about tenth
of the total, or one-flfth Cor less) of
the republican totals.
Yet 1t Is possible to be misled as 20
the meaning Of those striking figures.
They certainly indicate that the pro-
gressive party has not yet established
itself, but it is too much to say that
the progressives have returned to their
old allegiances, which were chiefly re-
publican
In Oregon 1t is plain that there is
to be no numerous progressive party
not now, at least-but It Is obvious
that there is a large body of independ-
ents, mainly registered as republi-
cans, who propose to hold themselves
In readiness to vote as political condi
ions or the personnel Of candidates
appear to them to warrant They have
not been reclaimed by the republican
party; nor have they been won by the
progressive party.

KN|CKERBOCKER MINE
MOON CREEK PROPERTY, RE-
GENTLY REOPENED, MAKES
GOOD SHOWING.

A strike of Importance Is reported
from the Knickerbocker NINE three OF
four miles >up Moon gulch from the
South Fork, formerly known as the
Charles Dickens. About six feet #
! ore Is said to have been encountered
In the face of drift being run from
the shaft. This drift has been ex-
tended about 200 feet. and the shaft
Is about 150 feet deep.
The strike Is said to be good grade
Of milling ore, and as much as Is
inches is apparently of a shipping
class
Up to within recent months the
knickerbocker had been idle for some
time past. 1t was then the manage
ment began to unwater 1t, with view
to taking out and milling some Of the
known ore and to further development
the property. Several weeks ago
the unwatering was finished, and IN
the development work which followed
this new ore body was struck.
The property is well equipped for
work and also has a concentrating
plant. Those familiar with its work
ings and ore body and ledge have
much faith In its possibilities with
further opening.
