MADE
ON BIG TERMINAL
FOR OAHU Co.

| Commenting on the progress of the
Waiahole tunnel. TrenTrusTics says
! in its issue today:
With the entire completion Of the
| immense project only a matter of ten
, of a portion CT the newly-developed
water reaching the lands Of the Oahu
Sugar Company within few months,
this enterprise is rapidly losing its
cloak of obscurity and is assuming a
very tangible form in the minds of
investors.
The main bore when completed will
have a total length of 14,40O feet. To
date $500 feet have been driveu-R1h0
feet on the south or Oahu Sugar Com
pany side, and 400 feet on Waiahole
side of the Koolau range. There re-
mains 1910 feet still to be excavated
in the main tunnel. which is being
removed at a rate of slightly over 90
feet a day.
The recent heavy rains have had
no material effect on the work. except
in so far as the loss of certain bridges
has interfered with transportation of
supplies. occaSioning some delay in
the work on the south side of the
range.
A further Indication Of the early
completion of the work is revealed by
the decision Of the Waiahole Water
Company to let the contract imme-
diately for the construction of the
riveted steel pipe (syphonsl which will
carry the water across the Kipapa and
two other smaller gulches. The line
will cross Kipapa about one mile above
the government road, and will be y
inches in diameter.
Oahu Sugar Co. Preparing New Land.
The Oahu Sugar Company has al
ready plowed $50 acres of entirely
new land in Hoaeae district and by
next July should have at least 1000
acres prepared and ready for planting
of, cane. Unless some delay arises in
the construction work on the main
tunnel. this 1000 acres should be
planted next year. The 650-acre plot
will liFely he planted whether the
Waiahole water is available or not.
as the mountain water developed by
the Waikakalaua ditch will guarantee
sufficient irrigation until such time as
the ether supply is developed.
The first crop to really demonstrate
the benefits of this new DEVELOPMENT
viii be that Of 1917. harvesting Of
which begins IN December, 1916. The
crop will have enjoyed the new noun
tain water for it's entire growing pc
Rod and should develop one and one
half to Two tons of additional sugar
per acre as a result of supplanting the
water. which is always more
or less brackiSh. with sweet mountain
water. The additional 1000 acres will
also be cropped in 1917.
To some extent the 1916 crop should
also benefit, as portion will have
enjoyed mountain water during a Pc
ried of its growth.
Every effort is being conferred en-
securing the water by next July. ether
wise the real benefit will be postponed
year ~
About 1900 acres of additional land
will be planted to cane in 1916. An
other area of 500 acres will be added
in 1917. Therefore, beginning with
crop of 1917, the next few years should
witness heavy increase in sugar
production on Oahu Sugar Company
plantation.
The crop of 1919 should represent
the maximum benefit resulting from
the Waiahcle development and should
approximate $4,000 tons of sugar, &C
ccrding to estimates of the company.

The state convention of mining
men, called by Mining Commls-
sloner T. r Henahen, will be
the biggest meeting of its kind
ever held in the state is already
assured. The metalliferous min
ing counties of Colorado have re-
sponded enthusiastic4 ally to the
call and are naming strong dele
cations to represent them. The
mining men Of Colorado realize that
through lack of organization they
have not received proper encour-
agement from federal and state
govern ments aud from commercial
bodies OF the state and that the
task of fostering the mining in
dustry and encouraging capital
has been left entirely to the in
dividual. They have noted the
benefits derived through organ
lzation by farmers, stockmen, bee
keepers. horticulturists, lawyers,
doctors, dentists, nurses, grocers,
retail merchants. accountants, ar
chitects and Others. All these
have state organizations while
mining, basic industry of the
state, has depended upon indiivd-
ual efforts of men engaged in it.
The state convention will give
the mining men an opportunity to
organize an association which will
aid the industry in all its branches
The State convention will be
held Feb. 10, wherever the ma
lority of the counties decide.

Joe Burke was in Denver this
week inspecting the 300 pound
hog but told the people that it was
only pig compared to those he
used to feed in Missouri. The
other stock commanded his at
teution and he thought them fine
but you could not get him to go
back on "old Missouri. His
modesty prevented him from
looking at the fine lady riders and
he was too gallant TO make any
comparison as to their grace and
beauty. He was chaperoned by
Jack Hoban or rather the two
chaperoned each other and there
was something doing all the time.

In consversation with the dele =

the county on Sunday, it was a
pleasure TO note the optimistic
feeling that was general in refer :
euce to the future of mining.
With one accord those from Silver
Plume, Georgetown, Empire
Lawson and Dumont believed and
asserted that the outlook was ore
of the most promising nature for
1914. These individual senti-
ments should be backed up by
concerted action and organized
efforts. What is needed is to inn
press the real facts of the prom
ising conditions in these several
camps upon outside capital tor
there are many prospects as well
as partly developed mines await

Gazette Burned Out

Fire com pletely destroye d the
business and mechanical depart
ngnt of the Idaho Springs Min
ing Gazette last Sunday night and
the Office stands mass of ruins.
The FIRE department responded to
two alarms. the first being about
7 o clock, in the evening. The
blaze found its origin in the base
ment near the foot of the stairs
and no one has been able to ac-
count for the same. The blaze
was ex,ingulshed before anv great
damage had resulted but shortly
after IL o'clock the department
was again called out. Heroic
efforts on the bart of fire fighters
saved the brick building from to-
tai destruction, although the dam
age to the Mining Gazette EQUIP
ment amounted to about $4,000
The lower floor of the building
was yuttel, while the Masonic
| lodge rooms upstairs were dam
aged by fire and water. The fur
n,ure and parapharnalia was
greatly damaged, the estimated
loss being about 81 500
Gazette carried $4,000 insurance,
while it is understood that the
building is fully protected.
The Masonic building was one
of the first brick structures put up
in the city. A large amount of
timber was used in construction,
while the floor above the room oc-
cupled by the Gazette was padded
with sawdust in order to prevent
any noise of an obnoxious nature.
The walls were similarly provid-
ed. and when the fire burst
through in all its fury Quick de-
struction resulted.
Quite h,gh wind was blowing
at the time Of the conhagration.
and had it not been tor the quick
action on the part o. the volun-
teer fremen, great damage would
upuuestionably have resulted to
surrounding property.
| The FIRE was first discovered by
Rudolph Fulcher. who operates
the saloon at the corner OF Seven
teenth and Miner streets. His at
tention was called to smoke in
the living rooms up stairs and in
vestigation revealed that the Off
of the Gazette was on fire. An
alarm was promptly turned in and
quick response followed. 1t is
evident that the FIRE had made its
way into the walls. This accounts
COR the smoke that found it's way
into the adjoining building Occur
pied by Mr.. Fulcher.
Messrs. F. D. Wiley, Jud
Brown and Nightwatch Fred There
went through the premises about
fifteen minutes to eleven o'clock
and found everything all right as
they believed, no indication what
ever that the fire was still smoul-
dering. Officer There then went
to his room for the purpose of
changing clothes, but shortly
thereafter another alarm was sound
ed.
An inspection of the Gazette
printery was sufficient to convince
anyone of the great damage that
resulted. Type was melted and
destroyed, forms were piled in
heaps, presses were scorched and
partly relieved of their board fin
ishings, stock of paper destroyed,
files of the paper burned to crisp
while falling timbers from the
ceiling blocked the entrance IN
many places.

Work was resumed a few days
ago at the Golden Glory tunnel
situated on Saxon mountain near
Empire Station. 1t had been i'm
possible to carry forward devel-
opment since the big storm Of
Dec. 6 last on account of not
being able to take in timbers.
The bore has now been advanced
for 1886 feet and for the last Is
feet red oxidized rock has been
followed that shows considerable
mineral. Indications are that
the heading of the tunnel is now
about to penetrate a vein and
one that gives promise of result
ing in a rich body of ore being
found. A tremendous flow of
water has been coming in for
some distance. another indica-
tion that a vein is near at hand.
