ors. The result must be to do good to
the mining industry The work of
Iprospectors will result in new mines
and the opening up of new opportun-
leases means greater development and
more extensive mining operations. The
man who takes lease and succeeds
that is, makes good money for him
self-is pretty sure to continue in in
dependent mining. The more indie
pendent successful miners there are
in camp the livelier and more pros
porous the camp.
For long time there has been COM
plant that mining has been depressed
because sufficient interest was not be-
ing shown in prospecting. Mining has
been somewhat depressed, but there
were other causes for that condition
than lack of prospecting Lack of
prospecting, however probably had
something to do with it. Present con-
ditions should aid materially in re-
moving this drag. When general bust
ness and Industrial conditions recover
from the effects Of the disturbance
caused by the breaking out of the war
mining should find itself in a better
position than 1t would have been in
had the war not occurred. There
should be an increased demand for
the products of the mines, not only to
supply the needs of Europe, but to
meet increased demands of domestic
industries, and mining should pros

the ore values run to greater depth,

IMPROVED PROCESSES OF MIN
ERAL RECOVERY.

The past few years have witnessed
a wonderful improvement in the MILL
ing methods in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict, and it is altogether probable that
the next few years will mark another
great stride in the direction of min
eral recovery 1t has not been so very
long ago when the appearance OF zine
in the silver-lead ores Of the district
was regarded as most serious OBJ
stacle in the way of profitable mining,
for the shelters exacted a heavy PEN
atty upon ore shipments carrying even
small percentage Of zinc, Now,
thanks to improved milling methods,
by which a perfect separation OF lead
and zinc Is made, and the flotation
process, which makes high percent
age CT recovery of zinc in shines, the
zinc which a few years ago was not
only total loss. but also detraeted
from the returns on the lead, is now
turned TO a source of profit and makes
available large bodies of ore which
under the old methods Of milling were
worthless,
These improvements have marked q
wonderful advance and have added
hundreds of thousands and perhaps
millions Of dollars to the available
mineral resources Of the district. Bu
the coming year promises to witness
a still greater advance in the way Of
mineral recovery, and in fact may re-
suit in a complete revolution of thu
mining Industry. This refers to The
experimental work that has long beer
in progress by the Bunker Hill an6
Sullivan company, and which has nov
reached a point which warrants the
company in predicting success, 1t Is
combined electrical and chemical pro
cess which RECEIVERS all metallic values
In ore and turns them into CONNER
cial form ready for the market The
successful operation of this process
means the elimination of the smeltel
and the saving Of the charges FOL
freight and treatment, 1t means thu
establishment of new industry herr
in the Occur dAlenes, and possibl.
the establishment of manufacturing
enterprises which consume the pro
Ducts of the mines. 1t means the pro
fitable treatment of ores that are nov
too low grade to stand the expense o
treatment under the present system
and 1t means the mining of large bod
les Of complex ores for which there Il
now no successful method of treat
ment.
These are some of the features o
mining In the Occur d'Alenes that
make the outlook for the industry ex
ceedlngly bright in spite Of the unsat

The effects of the war are not all
harmful to mining. Copper mining
has suffered heavily, 1t Is true; great
retrenchments of copper mining and
smelling operations were made ne
cessary in order to prevent overpro-
duction. Many miners were thus sud-
denly thrown out of employment or
put on part time. The result was that
many Of these copper miners have
gone to gold and silver producing dis
trlcts and taken leases, which they are
now operating. OF these many are re-
ported to be doing well. Prospecting,

Curtailment of output has been the
order recently in zinc mining as well
as copper mining. 1t is difficult to get
at exact figures, but the Joplin News
Herald states that the local reduction
amounts to 5000 tons per month, and
estimates the total for the United
States at $4,000 to 10000 tons. While
some ore is being imported and more
offered Siberian mines being the lat
est to make inquiries, it seems certain
that prices of metal will be affected
by the first of the year. The war is
changing the zinc situation markedly.

Uncle Joe Cannon announces that he will be a
candidate before the Republican primary in the Dam

former Speaker is too modest He is about FIVE years
behind the rest of the country including Danvile
He has been nominated and elected by the popular
vote of the country several times in the last two
months. Every from Illinois who has been in
Washington in the last six weeks, whatever his poll
tics, has assured that Uncle Joe was coming back
Ambitious Republicans in the Danville district
have assured the country that they would
with Uncle Joe the nomination and other ambitious
men who have never been in politics have announced
that they would be candidates against him. Bull
Moosers and Democrats have made plans TO get out of
the way of Uncle Joe and make the best fight they
to defeat him. All parties have made their plans
to have Uncle Joe in the campaign it seems before
he decided what he would do.
The announcement of Mr. Cannon is. however
news 1t is not even a confirmation of newspaper
rumor 1t is simply delayed recognition of the IN
evitable Uncle Joe has been candidate ever since
the of the votes was concluded two years ago

Still Hope for Europe.

Even with Servia's capital battered by the guns
of ria-Hungary there remains hope that
general European war will be averted The world
waits on ST. Petersburg for the signal For days to
come Europes foundation will be powder magazine.
An apparently reliable report says AustriaHungary
has assured Russia that she will concede the terri
torial integrity of Servia. Accepting this as true,
it relieves the tension but slightly Even should such
limitation of Austria-Hungarys program determine
Russia to keep her hands off, the great powers will
be ready to spring to at any moment until the
dual monarchy has proved her good faith and ability
to keep her pledge.
The Kaisers hand continues to WELD the greatest
power for peace unless indeed, he is playing deep
game for German triumph, while appearing to the
world as the strongest of the forces working to con-
fine hostties to the two countries now IN conflict
On the surface, the prospect of war involving the
principal nations of Europe may be said to be less
imminent than the twenty-four hours ago.

To-Prerent Forest Fires.

Because OF the fact that many forest
fires are set through the carelessness Of
hunters. campers and others who 60 into
the woods for recreation. the United
States Forest Service has taken up with
manufacturers of firearms and ammuni-
ton the question OF a cooperative ar
rangement through which purchasers and
users of guns and cartridges shall be re-
minded OF the fire danger. Many forest
fires are started by the carelessness OF
hunters, who drop burning matches, cigar
or cigarette stumps. or pipe Goals in the
woods. or build a fire carelessly. Forest
fires greatly injure the interests OF sports
men by robbing both birds and big game
Of their cover and food supply.
1t Is suggested that the manufacturers
ought to be sufficiently interested in the
matter of perpetuation Of game to be
willing to help by printing some brief f'e
warning on cartridge boxes or some slip
to go with any hunting or camping sup
plies. Several manufacturers have already
expressed their interest in the matter

YEARS DIGGING OF COAL.
Said to he Greater Than Total FIX
cayatIon for Panama Canal,

Said to BE Greater Than Total FIX
cavatIon for Panama Canal.
1t has been estimated that the amount
Of coal which will be dug out Of the
ground In the United States during The
present year will be greater by far than
the total excavation for the Panama
Canal
Experts Of the United States Geological
Survey have estimated that originally
there was enough coal in this country to
make a solid block ten miles long. ten
miles wide and ten miles high. A block
of this size would weigh more than 35Oo,-
ooO. .OOo 900 tons, and up to the present time
the coal that has been removed amounts
only TO something like l5,OOc. .00e, ,oO9 tons.
The coal mined during 1915 will amount to
about 60O, ,0oo. 600 tons, containing about
10000, coo cubic yards. The total excava-
ton for the Panama Canal from start to
finish Is computed at some 262, ,00O. COO cubic
yards.
The comparison indicates in a striking
way the extent Of the coal mining indus
try in the United States. The output of
coal is enormous. but II is increasing year
by year. The amount OF coal so far
taken out is only a fraction OF what re-
mains, according to the estimates OF the
biologists. The people OF this country.
however, are using more coal every year.
and with the exhaustion Of some OF the
European coal fields already in sight the
foreign demand for American coal will in
crease enormously.
The history of coal mining in the United
States covers only a period OF about a
century. There was some mining Of an
thracite in Pennsylvania as far back as
1870, but the records Of the anthracite coal
trade usually begin with the year 1870
The first actual mining is believed to have
been in Virginia. though the records Of
production in that State date from IS2Z
The presence of coal in Ohio was discov-
cred as far back as I755. but the record
of output begins with 1857. The history of
coal mining in Kentucky begins in Isl
but in lS4O the production had reached
only 23.527 tons.
Kentuekys coal industry suffered great
ly during the civil war. In 1850 the pro-
ductiOn had reached 2S57sO tons. but in
1854 II was under 2,eO0 tons and in 1879 II
was only 15O,5S2 tons Since that time
progress has been continuous until last
year a maximum output of about 10000 900
tons was reached.-Louisville Courier
