CHEAP PLAN TO SAVE GOLD.
VIII be Tried on Large Placer Tract In.
Idaho County.

A sale recently made In the Newsome
mining district in the northern part of
the state may have the effect of revo-
lutionizing the placer mining industry
in the west, and of opening up regions
OF untold wealth to active operation.
j. V. Pohlman, who was in the city
Saturday announced that his COM
pany, the Pohlman Investment com
pany of Spokane, had purchased a con-
trolling interest in the properties of
the Idaho. Placer Mines company two
miles from Newsome station, a short
distance from Sites in Idaho county.
The property is long ridge of gold
bearing gravel, assaying to Is cents
to the cubic yard. There are one hun
dred million yards in the body which
covers approximately one thousand
acres of ground:
These properties have never been
successfully operated. They have been
considered in a way, unlucky. Several
times the name has been changed in an
effort to make them marketable. It is
the belief of Mr.. Pohlman that the
company's hydraulic engineer has
evolved plan that will bring success
to the efforts to work the ground. This
engineer estimates that he can operate
at cost of two cents yard or even
less. He has worked out the matter
so thoroughly in estimate tables furn-
ished to the company that he hcs
thoroughly convinced them of his abil-
ity to live up to his promises.
The plan proposed for working these
properties is simply the application of
the caving plan to hydraulic mining.
The company PROPOSES to start work
next week.
While the announcement that this
ground will be active soon is encour.
aging to the mining industry, the pro-
mise of the young engineer that hi
plan will cut the cost of working his
and similar properties to such, an as
tonishingly low figure, is one that
means much to the mining industry of
the entire state if it is found to be
observation-disclosures.

ed bodies occur is the large area OF
greensboro and other schists, which il
bounded on the southeast by persis
tent belt of crystalline limestone which
appears in all the places where the telt
has been followed.
t. j. Bernard, an English mining
geologist of authority, visited the
Clearwater section three years ago and
was then highly impressed with the
future possibility of developing great
bodies of valuable ores. Mr.. WakeIy
accompanied Mr.. Bernard on his trip
and on Mr.. Bernard 8 advise, he with
his brothers, located number OF
quartz claims near the Joe Baker ranch
on which they are now doing successful
development work, having already
cross-cut the mineral zone over 100
feet and are still pushing ahead. They
have found some good looking chal-
copyrite ore with good values in gold
and copper.
Joe Baker has some very promising
ei"iho iotdtcu' vi ther SOUTH II. w.
Oliver, Jim Bishop and Pete Solem
have a number of claims under devel-
opment with most gratifying results
and with depth are bound to develop
rich properties.
About the Dewey Camp, where the
first mineral discovery was made, the
most extensive development has been
done, which in all represents over
1000 feet in tunnels, cross cuts, shafts
and open surface cuts, so that tn, en-
tent of the mineral zone is well estab.
lished, being over 1000 feet in width
and in which occur the large veins of
ore. The Dewey vein averages 20 feet
in width and the st. Patrick vein IS
from SO to AZ feet between walls.
The Evergreen mine adjoins the
Dewey and st. Patrick claims en- the
west and is perhaps the most attractive
ore body exposed so far. The ore has
been followed into the hill for 400 feet |
and here showed width by cross-cuts
Of 305 feet, all containing more or less
values in gold, part of the ore body be-
mig in very good ore.
The ore is quartz porphyry, well |
exidised, yielding readily to cyanide

ARRESTED FOR BURGLARY.

knight of the road, was arrested and
brought over last night to answer for
the crime. 1t seems Collins, who had

brating the event with liquid refresh
ments and was joined by Graham and
several others. Later Collins was found
with the clothes wrapped up in bun

the preliminary has not as yet been
set, the authorities working along lines
that they hope will clear the matter up
and place the guilt where it properly
belongs.

MINING ACTIVITY LOOKING UP
IN IDAHO COUNTY.
Continued from page ~
The Clearwater Mining Section.


But few miles east from Grange
vile, along the South Fork of the
Clearwater river, exists a mineral belt
all the way from the Dewey Camp tc
Harpster that may in time resemble
the mining activities about Butte, mas
much as the copper values predominant
and gain in strength with depth as al
ready indicated with work done in diff
ferent sections along the river.
The country in question has been
visited by eminent biologists, chief
among whom is Waldemar Lindgren,
until lately at the head of the U. s..
Geological Survey and author of many
leading articles on geology and miner
ais, his latest work "Mineral Depos-
its" being considered the very highest
authority published.
In his survey he reports in part on
this section:
Finally, along the western foot of
the Clearwater mountains, near Harps-
ter and Mount Idaho, occur states,
limestones and greenstones, which
clearly form the northeasterly extern
sion of the similar sedimentary series
of the Seven Devils and the lower Sal
mon river.
"This series is believed to be of
early Mesozoic age and the granite of
the Clearwater mountains is intrusive
in it."
DR.. Lindgren has traced the sedimen-
tary deposits in which are the eruptive
porphvry, which contain these miner
allied DEPOSITS, for distance of $50
miles in a northeasterly and south
westerly course, having found them
where intruding granite had not dis
placed them or where they were not
covered with the Columbia river lava
sheet which in some places is 1000 feet
thick. These deposits are particularly ,
in evidence where they cross the can
yons of the Snake, Salmon and Clear

TODAY AND YESTERDAY

The death OF Samuel Bowles, editor
and publisher of the Springfield Re

naming links that unite the news
papers that our fathers and grand
fathers read and cherished. Only a
few are left of the era of personal
journalism, when newspapers We're
known by the strong personalities of
the men who built up and sustained
organs of public opinion by sheer
force of individuality.
In the Springfield Republican there
have been perpetuated the finest tradi-
tIons of the newspaper business.
Samuel Bow les persisted in the de-
termination Of his ancestors to APP
peal solely to what was best and
highest in American life. Built up
on the bedrock of absolute independ-
ence and broad conservatism, the
Springfield Republican has never
been swerved from it's purpose by
the sleazy doctrines Of yellow sensa-
tionalism.
There are those who carp at the
newspaper in America today, but
they judge modern journalism by the
exception and not the rule. The prin-
ciples and the policy that have en-
abled the Republican to maintain it.
self in small New England city are
iii reality the same that inspire the
clean newspapers in the larger Ameri-
can cities. The difference arises in
the treatment, not in the substance.
Because the size and the variety OF
the parts that go to make up the
metropolitan daily, the personal ele-
meut has been submerged, but the
quality of the grain has not changed.
