MORE RAILROAD STOCKHOLDERS
Seattle Post Intelligencer.


! A recent statement issued by the
Pennsylvania Railroad company shows
that there has been within the past few
months an extraordinary increase in
the number of stockholders of that
great corporation. In February 1t had
1880 stockholders In May the mum
Der had increased to $4,000 On JULY
/ the stock of this railroad system was
held by S4,244 persons. There had
been gain since February Of $500
stockholders.
1t is clear from these figures that
the low prices at which the stock Of
the Pennsylvania and other solid rail-
road corporations have been quoted
has invited investment by large num-
Der of small capitalists. nothwith-
standing the distrust which has been
generally shown for some months Of
all the securities dealt in on the street.
The Pennsylvania system has al
ways enjoyed one unique advantage
1T has never been family property"
It's stock has always been widely dis
tributed Moreover, the distribution
has been largely among people in the
territory served by it, Its own en-
ployes have also, to a large extent, in
vested their earnings in the stock OF
the company from which they draw
their wages.
The situation Is thus of a consider
able percentage of the people of the
communities which the PENNSYLVANIA
serves being both patrons of the road
and part owners of it as we'll. This
Is a condition which certainly makes
for lessening of friction between the
railroad and the people.
While other statistics are not as vet
ohtainable there is some prospect
that, while the transactions on the
stock exchange have sunk to abnorm-
ally small figures, there has still been
in the aggregate a large amount Of
purchases for investment by those
who, not frightened over the present

property of great promise. There is
ample evidence that 1t has within its
lines both the Morning and You Like
lodges, from both of which enormous
production has come for over 90 years.
The course of the two lodges would
bring them together on the Gettysburg
claim. The two lodges have yielded
many millions of dollars and are large
and profitable producers today, with
known long life ahead They are
worked to a depth near $500 feet and

The You Like ledge is smaller than
that of the Morning, but is a much

upper workings Of the Gettysburg, and
this will probably give a line on its

to haul ore by wagon for railroad ship
ment would hardly be less than nine
miles. 1t Is not likely that the Nabob
management will handle any more Of
its ore in this way The railroad COM
pany has not given out anything of its
plans, even If any are matured at this
time. but 1t Is known that close in

made by officials. Construction and
operation of Pine creek railroad

of any of the branch lines operating
In the Occur d'Alenes. To the average
man there would appear to be an

MINING ONE OF GREAT
INDUSTRIES OF IDAHO
IT MEANS READY MONEY AND
IMPETUS TO ALL LINES
OF BUSINESS.

The Boise Statesman of recent dat
has this timely comment on mining an
its relation to other industries Of tn
state, and also on the undeyeloped min
eral resources Of the interior of tn
state:
Mining ought to be helped along
The west was founded on 1t. We ow,
much to mining, but mining still owe
much to u.s. 1t Is ready to pay when
ever we go out into the hills and dis
as the pioneers dug. In those day.
there was always a grub stake" fol-
the prospector, always credit for tht
miner, always encouragement for the
industry.
I'VE have developed other sources
Of revenue, but all of them will be
benefited by active mining operations
1--WE have agriculture, but mining
will give it an enlarged and more
profitable outlet
I'VE have transportation, but min
ing will increase its tonnage.
1--WE have large mercantile and bank
ing establishments, but mining will
render them more potential, because
Mining means ready money.
There are some districts In this
state, practically untouched because
OF lack Of capital and transportation,
that are known to rival the Occur
dAlenes in native wealth, and TO
equal some of the best in Alaska, not
excepting the Treadwell
Indeed, competent authorities have
described ono of them. the Big creek
district, as a second Rand. In that
district alone the annual amount
spent for labor, provisions and pow
der Is 100000 with no big work In
progress, 1t Is held back by lack If
transportation. 1t Is trying jour
ney to reach 1t at present The small
men, speaking financially, who must
be the pioneers In all such develop
ments, are forced to snail pace. The
big ones will come in time, but the
others must pave the way They are
doing 1t now, yet distressngly handi-
capped.
Some day there will be railroad
down the Salmon through this dis
trict, Meantime. the construction Of
a wagon road 80 miles in length will
make the district young giant Of
production and of consumption
THE wagon road is the evolution
Of the trail. 1t is the best we can
have now, but it means operations. an
of wealth with which to
buy the produce of our farms and the
wares of our stores.
"The Twelfth legislature refused 70
make an appropriation for this road
in line with a policy of retrenchment.
A movement is on foot to build it as
a toll road and turn it over to the
public so soon as the cost shall be re- =,

We hope it succeeds.
I'VE hope every effort succeeds hav-
ng in view the development along
legitimate lines of our mining dis
districts. because it means

"COPPER" ON NORTH FORK

A SHOWING OF QUANTITY Sell
DOM EQUALLED-RAILROAO
PROSPECTS.

Sam Seidenfelt has recently returned
from trip to his copper property NJ
the headwaters of the North Fork OF
the Clearwater river, in Clearwater
county. The property is splendidly
equipped for work, and has been de-
veloped for some years past, and quite
extensive work is now being carried on
under the direction of Denny Riordon,
of Mullan. The property has re-
markedly fine showing Of an excellent
grade Of copper ore. In fact, in all the
history of mining few lodges can show
an equal amount of valuable ore block
ed oat as the Clearwater Mining COM
pany with similar amount of devel-
opment. But its one handicap is the
remote location, the long and difficult
route to transportation.
Mr.. Seidenfelt says that late work
on the property has given splendid re-
suits in the addition of ore reserves.
Milwaukee May Build.
There is some hope for a railroad
In that section" said Mr.. Seidenfelt
"The Milwaukee road is investigating
the country, having had an engineer in
there for some time past. The rail-
road company and allied interests have
large timber land holdings in that Sec
tion and along the North Fork and
tributaries. The main part of the Mil
waukee railroad system Is in the Mis-
sissippi river valley states, where there
is always heavy demand for lumber
1t Is not unreasonable to expect that
sooner or later it will build feeder to
its main line into this section
