The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1914-07-09
The Horst Powell,

Perhaps the best known and most
extensively developed mining property
on the Little North Fork is the Horst
Powell Much ore has been exposed
that could probably be shipped at a
profit with a railroad close to the
mine. In fact If the present wagon
road was placed in good condition it
lis possible that shipments could PC
made at the present time A few
months ago a bond was taken on the
property by Al Page and Andy Dev-
lin and several men are now employ
ed. They will install compressor
and will then be enabled to largely in
crease the present force. The fact
that Messrs. Page and Devlin are con-
Inected with the proposed railroad be-
tween Wallace and Occur d'Alene has
given rise to the belief that when this
road is constructed it will enter the
Occur d'Alene district by way Of the
Little North Fork instead of through
Fourth Of July canyon. The fact tha,
these gentlemen are apparently maxi
ing extensive preparation for the de-
velopment of the Horst Powell would
indicate that they have reason to eX-
pect railroad transportation at no dis
tant date.
