BELIEVES LEAD PRICE
SECURE FOR A TIME
CLAYTON MILLER EXPRESSES
OPTIMISTIC VIEW OF MIN.
ING SITUATION.

| In some respects the general min
ing situation never looked better than
1t does at present." said W. Clayton
Miller who spent few days in Wal
lace In the early part OF the week. OF
the lead market, In which the Occur
d'Alenes Is SO vitally interested. Mr..
Miller said he believed there is security
for fair and stable market for this
metal for several years to come in any
event whatever. The tariff as at
present handled, he says, is menace
but there are other extraordinary con-
ditlons, he maintains. that will offset
adverse action on that question. The
Mexican situation figures strongly In
lead production The shortage there
tends to stiffen the market here. He
says there Is not reasonable chance
Of normal Mexican lead mining opera
tons being resumed within a year, and
even II there should be beginning
then. which is not probable. 1t would
take year more for any damaging
effect of Mexican imports under the
reduced tariff to be seriously felt In
the markets of the United States.
Mr. Miller has given the subject of
zinc separation In the Occur d'Alenes
. great deal Of attention and believes
there is much advancement to be
made along these lines.
No man in the camp has kept In
closer touch with the development Of
he Occur dAlenes than Mr. Miller !
He began practically with the first dis
,overies here and In professional ca
oacity has directed a vast amount of
he country's exploration. For years
lie was at the head of some Of the |
greatest mining enterprises in the !
Occur dAlenes and in addition has al
Ways kept in the closest touch with
development In every part |

LITTLE PROJECTED.

A. M. Mundell, a prospector and
miner who has give much attention
TO that section lying south of Wallace
and on the north slope to the st. Joe
river. was In Wallace for few days
last week. He Is at present located at
the head Of the west fork Of Slate
creek, nearly due south of Wallace,
about nine miles on an air line, and
about 6 or miles from the st. Joe
river. There he has built a good cab
In and Is developing ledge of good
promise on the surface. He has the
usual iron and quartz Gaping char
asteristic Of some of the best pro-
ducers In the Occur d'Alenes.
Mr.. Mundell, seven or eight years
ago, discovered and located the Occur
d'Alene- Mastodon ledge, three or four
miles from the Placer creek-St. Joe
wagon road, on Slate creek. He was
In bringing about much
Of the early development there. This
property Is said to have very favor
able showing of ore. Contractors are
now at work on It, the control resting
in the hands of Occur d'Alene City
people Supplies were few weeks
ago taken over from Wallace
Mr.. Mundell probably has a more
thorough familiarity with that part of
he Occur d'Alenes, from mineral
than any other man. He
believes strongly in IT'S mineral pos

light years has devoted a large part

No efforts of Mr.. Days personal
newspaper organ to cloud the issue
will win He should understand this
and also that any attempt to throw
dust in the eyes Of the people of this
community will be properly met. The
marked difference between the neces-
sary boarding house in isolated mining
sections and the company store and
boarding house. with their cinch and
graft and exercise of unjust power, are
thoroughly understood throughout this
camp No sneering thrusts at Strobe
and Norman will conceal the real is
sue. 1t must be faced squarely.

Good Roads and Their Keeping

save lots Of work when the spring
freshets come and make much be-
ter road for travel in the early spring.
When a Little Work Counts Most.
Looking after the cause of washouts
in the fall will save thousands of dol
lars in road repairing the next sum-
mer and make better road surface.
1t takes some time, too, for roadbeds
to settle after they have been dis
turbed in repairing, and oftentimes
must be let alone for some time before
repairs can be made
All bridges should be looked after,
that there may be no drift left against
piling, which will cause great strain
on bridge construction, If 1t does not
take the bridge out altogether. An
ounce of preventative Is worth whole
barrel of cure. This old and well tried
adage applies to good road work as
well as to thousands of other things IL
