The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1913-10-09

There have been definite accom-
plishments in the Occur d'Alcnes thus
far during the year 1913 In fact,
there have been more definite results
brought about than during any one
year for many years past, and it may
even be record breaker. These have
not come from a single years work,
but are the elimination in most in
stances Of many years of effort-ten
and more than 20 in some cases. II
is all in direct proof of the statement
that mines are found" only in rare
instances; they are developed.
1t is not the purpose of this story
to tell Of the many improved ore
showings with depth and development
in the big producing mines That is
always an interesting story in itself
and is fully as important to the dis
trct as the making of entirely new
strikes.
Take such properties as the Ma
tional. the Interstate and the Tamar
ack Custer, for example. Their vast
ly Increased value and their actually
demonstrated worth have come about
largely through results of this years
work There are others throughout
the district hardly less conspicuous
than those mentioned.
In another list may be mentioned
old properties, quite extensively
worked in some instances. which have
given strikes Of new ore bodies.
Prominent among these are the Great
Western, two miles from Burke; the
Benton, practically in the town, and
the Ray-Jefferson, adjoining the CAL
lahan, in the Sunset district, and the
Manhattan. its close neighbor. While
no human being can tell the extent
Of an ore body till It Is opened there

An assessment of one-half mill has

Property Being Quietly Developed

work In a section Of country about
which little is heard, but which never

mining. The property is tributary t.

on the ground and good equipment for

three miles up the creek and half
mile below Beeler postof'ice.

NORMAN TALKS TO NEW
YORK MINING PAPER
TELLS OF UNJUST CONTRACT IN
SALE OF FEDERAL ORE
WHO he REPRESENTS.

| recent issue of the Mining Age,
published in New York city, notes the
recent arrival of Sidney Norman
from the west and the renewal of his
| fight on the Guggenheims and the ex-
listing Federal contract with them
Questioned by a Mining Age repre-
sentative as to the case of Federal
common stockholders which is pending
in the supreme court of New York,
Mr. Norman said:
Who Norman Represents.
"As to the suggestion that / am
representing secret enemies of the
Guggenheim interests, | am merely
representing about 100 preferred and
common stockholders who are con-
trbuting to the cost of the present lit
igation. The actual plaintiffs in the
suit now in the supreme court of New
York number 20, with a total owenr-
ship of over 5000 shares, including the
largest owner of common stock out
side the American Snelters' Securit
les company. The suit will surely
come to trial, presumably in Novem-
Der, unless there be a voluntary re-
vision of the present contract by the
smelling interests, the outlook of such
revision being at present very re-
mote.

"The Hercules property, which is
one of the giants of the Occur

Another feature of Occur d'Alene
mining and mining business is the
comparative freedom of the camp in
recent years from anything in the
class of fake manipulations. 1t has
at all times been the cleanest camp
in the west in this respect.
In point Of production the Coeur
d'Alenes ranks second among the
mining camps of the west. Butte is
first.
The statement that more money
has been made in the Occur d'Alenes
compared with the amount invested
in any mining camp in the west will
hardly be questioned.

There are no engineering problems
to solve in putting a railroad up Pine
creek, within easy reach of number
of producing mines and many othe:
properties that give every promise OF
becoming producers with additional
development and with the encourage
ment that would follow with the
knowledge of transportation AT hand'
Nothing in this camp Is so closely al
lied to mining as railroad trahSpor-
tation The former Is practically mn
possible without the latter
It is a fact that every single section
of the Occur d'Alenes has been fur
nished with shipping facilities with
smaller showing of tonnage than that
TO be seen on Pine creek The Sunset
district would be the only possible
exception to the above statement.

The o. w. r. e. N,

The most likely railroad for Pine
creek has always seemed to be the
w. r. &, N. It is right at the en-
trance and Is already handling all the
business from that section. That COM
pany made special investigation Of
present and probable business TINS
summer, making detailed estimates of
available ore tonnage but nothing
was given out or done to indicate in
tentjon of immediate construction.

THREE RAILROAD COMPANIES HAVE THIS
SEASON INVESTIGATED PINE CREEK
o.w N. AND NORTHERN PACIFIC HAD MEN
GROUND.

Not every investigation of a railroad
route by company officials means the
construction of line. and not every
preliminary survey has that meaning;
and sometimes. after definite location
Of route and even cross sectioning,
tho point Is never reached where the
rails are laid
But railroad construction, where it
does materialize. must necessarily be-
gin with preliminary Investigation
and movements along these lines. So
whenever railroad officials begin any
sort of investigation of route or ter.
ritory 1t Is clear that there is a pur
pose in view, whether or not 1t Is ul-
timately carried out 1t Is not done
solely for pastime.
The inspiration for the above re-
marks comes from the fact that dur
ing the past summer, and more re-
Gently this fall, three railroad compa
MES have given more or less attention
to Investigation of the Pine creek dis
trict having their field men in that
section for various periods Of time, OF
course they looked strictly after the
business for which they came and
kept their own counsel, but absolute
secrecy of movements is not possible.
Milwaukee Railroad.
Representatives of the Milwaukee
company spent some time in the in
vestigation of the Pine creek territory
recently. That company has logging
railroad from Herrick. on its main
line, up Big creek, and this is just over
the divide from the head of Pine creek
! Ii has been generally figured that
some day or other, and in some way
or other, the Milwaukee would come
into the Coeur dAlenes, seeking a
share of the tremendous ore transpor-
tation business and also to secure at
least part of the business that must
come from our vast timber resources.
The Milwaukee railroad system. in tho
Missouri and Mississippi river valleys
supplies one of the best markets for
! ing Pine creek the Milwaukee cross
ed over the divide south to the Mil
waukee lines.
Northern Pacific.
Representatives of the Northern
Pacific Railway company devoted con-
siderable time to investigating Pine
creek territory this summer. That
company however, has interests be-
yond those of the O.-W. X. & N. and
the Milwaukee The company has
large holdings Of timber land In that
section more extensive than those OF
any of the big timber companies.
Much of this was in the path of the
big forest fire that swept the country
several years ago. 1t Is not destroy
ed, but damaged and materially de-
creased in value. That is, 1t Is not
destroyed if worked up into lumber
within certain limits of time. The
nearest direct connection the North =
ern Pacific has with any probable
Pine creek railroad Is at Wallace,
about l6 miles east In westerly
direction Coeur d'Alene City Is It's
nearest connection, 80 or more miles
distant. It has always seemed reas-
enable to expect the Northern Pacific,
some day or other, to connect this 80
mile gap between Occur d'Alene and
Wallace. thereby shortening its trans
continental route some 60 or 10 miles.
