who lamented: Here's Monday and

over her linen, dishes and silver, and
has everything in readiness to set the

In recent issue of The Miner 1t
was stated that the Laclede vein had

district. which was regarded as very
favorable change. Shortly after this

found in the vein and every feature Is
favorable to finding an ore shoot, but
owing to the irregularity Of the course
1t has been decided. upon the advice
of +. Cushing Moore. the company's
engineer. to stop the drift and sink
on the vein.
Some 400 or 500 feet back from the
face of the drift shaft has been sunk
on the vein to a depth of about 30 feet,
and the bottom Of the shaft shows
considerable carbonate and galena
ore. and in fact 1t has the appearance
Of being close to a body of ore. 1t is
the plan now to extend this shaft or
the vein, which stands at about so de-
grees, to a depth of at least 100 feet.
and 1t is believed that before that
depth is reached a. good ore body will
be encountered.

A meeting of the stockholders Of the
Polaris Mining company was held in
4his city last Friday evening when the
following directors were elected: Mrs.
". B. Hepburn, John p. Gray, w. II.
Batting, Miss Florence Meade and
rherrett Towles. These directors will
meet in Coeur dAlene this week and
elect officers 1t is understood that as
soon as the new officers are elected
they will take up a proposition to
lease the group, which consists Of
three claims lying east Of and adioin-
ing the Yankee Boy group on Big
creek, upon which profitable leases
are now In operation.
The Polaris was one Of the first To-
cations made on the South Side. The
discovery was made by the late Sena-
tor Hepburn and he owned practically
the entire stock in the company at the
time of his death. The limited devel
opnent on the Polaris consists of a
tunnel on the vein for several hundred
feet. but which gained very little
depth, and a shaft from the tunnel
level to a depth Of probably $50 feet
A good wagon road leads from the
railroad to the mine and considerable
ore running high in silver was shipped.
but it was not found profitable owing

THE RE|NDEER-QuEEN
WORK THIS SUMMER
WILL PROBABLY EXTEND TuN
MEL 1900 FEET INTO THE

1t is probable that during the

ite plans have yet been made, said
Curly Crawford of Mullan, president
Monday The consolidation of the
two companies seems to have worked
to the advantage of both, and 1t is be-
lieved that sufficient commercial ore
can soon be exposed to make ship
ments profitable
The last work on the consolidated
property was in the Queen ground
through the Reindeer tunnel. 1t Is
proposed to extend this tunnel into
the Queen ground a distance of 1900
feet, which will give depth Of $50
feet at the most favorable point on
the vein and where the best ore is ex-
pected Meantime the tunnel is now
in ore that will run or per cent
copper, and with the favorable smelt-
ing charges which have been offered,
1t is believed that ore could now be
shipped at profit. The railroad is
within probably quarter of mile
Of the Reindeer tunnel and the cost
of getting ore to the track would not
be heavy. 1t would be possible to put
in a spur that would eliminate all
hauling.

Mining Association.
In discussing the meeting of the
Idaho Mining association, Mr.. Rossi
said it was an event which will bring
forth excellent results in the future in
the fact that 1t brought together for
the second time an earnest, sincere
and conscientious body of men repre-
sentng the mining industry Of Idaho
which has been subjected to SO many
attacks in the past by all sorts of peo-
pie.
The association has proved beyond
a doubt that it can and will accom-
lplish results. and even were no bene-
fits secured, the very fact that the
has caused the many unthnking peo-
pie who in the past have been antag-
onistic to look twice before leaping at
the conclusions and attacking it.
Benefits of Organization.
Aside from giving the industry the
standing that it deserves-and no rea-
sons exist for not having organized
years ago similarly to the wool ana
sheep men, the farmers and other pro-
tective organizations-the association
as such has been able to accomplish
many things which no individual alone
could have done. In this connection
may be mentioned the completely
changed attitude of the department Of
interior and the forest service to the
granting Of privileges on mining lands,
granting Of patents on claims long
held up and many other important
concessions.
The association, right at its incip-
iency, welded a powerful influence In
the last session Of the legislature and
forcing reasonable blue sky law,
which would otherwise have been q
most drastic statute, resulting in prac
tlCdlly ClDSHlS uoNU sNlStiuS cpGld- =
tions and undoubtedly dealing q death
blow to any further opening up Of ne"
properties.
Should Increase Membership.
In view of the nominal fee charged,
s1.00 for membership, no one in any
business in the mining territory Of
the state, should remain outside Of the
organization, since 1t Is evident thai
there is safety in numbers and no
Legislature will attack the industry II
it is thoroughly organized.
The meeting was attended by min =
ing men from all over the state and
proved exceedingly interesting. The
earnestness manifested augurs well
for the future and will result in many
improved conditions aside from bring
Ing the industry into the foreground
as It's Importance so well deserves. As
fitting climax, the entire official
body was reelected,

The time has arrived when some
thought must be given by the intelli-
gent voter to the political lineup in
the state and to those candidates who
are persistently mentioned in connec-
ton with the senatorship, the govern
orship and other high offices involved
in the election this fall. There is no
doubt that things political are con-
siderably mixed in Idaho at the pres
ent time, and men who have reputa-
tions as political prophets to sustain
are somewhat backward in reading
the signs of the times for the benefit
of the public. However. when Her.
man J. Rossi returned from Boise the
other day. where he had been attend
ing the meeting of the workmen's
compensation commission and the Ida
no Mining association, he brought back
with him some definite impressions Of
the political situation which contain
substantial encouragement to republic
cans.

political discussions are becoming
more frequent and | noted general
feeling of get-together in my travels
in southern Idaho among the many re-

said Mr.. Rossi.
"The senatorial contest Is, of course.
the principal topic of discussion and
from an unbiased point of view II
looks strongly as though Senator Bra
dy will have no trouble in being the
successful nominee and subsequently
lelected.
THE entrance of Mr.. French into
the senatorial race has opened up a
wide field of speculation as to who
will be his successor in the lower
house. That Addison T. Smith will
again be the nominee seems to be the
universal opinion among republicans,
and in view of the splendid service he
is rendering the people Of the state,
there is no doubt that his nomination
means his election.
Governor Haines is gaining strengtn

of our mining men and visitors to the

expressions came from men of all pol
