CHICAGO'S ELECTION

There is no. overshadowing civic
issue at stake in Chicago's election
today, but for several reasons the
country is interested in the result.
The fact that it is the first in which
women have voted for mayor of Chi
cago is alone sufficient to make it
very important as we'll as interest
ing. Of total registered vote of
769,o17, it is said 2s2, 2,4s3 are women.
1t is easily possible that they may
decide the election. 1t is all guess
work to estimate the strength they
will give either candidate for mayor,
and each is claiming their support.
Although a great rallying cry has
been lacking, there has been intense
bitterness, each side having charged
the other with injecting the unfor-
tunate religious issue into the cam
paign. Robert M. Sweitzer, the Dem
ocratic candidate, is a Catholic, and
it is asserted that about 60 per cent
of the vote in Chicago is Catholic.
William Hale Thompson, leading the
Republican ticket, is a Protestant
The European war also has figured
In the campaign, but is not expected
to influence the vote notably.
1t has been sought, too, to make
issues of Roger Sullivan, who active
ly supported Sweitzer, and William
Lorimer, who took no part in the
contest, but whose hackers have been
the guiding spirits of the Thompson
fight. But the names of Sullivan,
present boss of the Illinois Democ-
racy, and Lorimer, erstwhile domi-
nant figure of the Republican ma
chine, could not be erected into a
stirring issue.
The nearest to shibboleth in the
entire campaign was Thompson's ap-
peal for a return of the Republican
party to power for the sake of the
"full dinner pail" In this he con-
nected the election with the national
situation, and is believed to have
won considerable following, as Chi.
cago has felt acutely the ill effects
of unemployment. Business depres,
don, lack of confidence in the indus
trial situation, and unemployment
were discussed at length by the Re
publicans, and constitute about the
only approach to a genuine politica
issue.
Sweitzer and Thompson are botl
progressive men, and differ littl,
upon questions affecting vitality Chi
cago's interests. AS regards thei
attitude toward the liquor question
they have been called "liberal mind
ed" which means, probably, tina
they do not altogether disfavor tn,
saloon. The Democratic candidate i
comparatively new in the politica
arena, having been elected count,
clerk five years ago and re-electe,
last fall. The Republican candidate
is as little known in public life, hav
ing served one term as alderman

STANLEY WILL SHIP
HIGH GRADE ANT|MONY
CARRIES GOOD VALUE IN GOLD
LOWER TUNNEL is BEING
EXTENDED.

The steady advance in the price OF
Stanley stock during the past few
weeks has been one of the most no.
! ticeable features of the stock eX-
change. From cents it has steadily
| climbed until it has now reached 36
cents. This is a Day controlled prop
erty, joining the Benton on the west
and extending northwesterly to the
passes through the Stanley ground on
the westerly end, but if any Gisclos
ures of importance were made By Lais
crosscut, the facts have been closely
guarded But Stanley has value
outside of anything that may have
been developed in the Hercules tun-
mel. A good many years ago a 1ine
bCdy of antimOny ore was opened in
the upper tunnel from which several
cars were shipped. AS sorted and
shipped the ore returned above so per
gold, some of it running as high as $25
per ton. This value in gold decreased
with depth, and that along the tunnel
level was not as rich as that which
came from the stope. A considerable
quantity of this ore was left by the
former management and this is now
being extracted and sorted for ship
ment. About a carload is now report
ed on the dump which with the high
price of antimony and its gold value
should yield big profit.
Extending Lower Tunnel.
The lower tunnel is also being ex-
tended under this ore shoot. When
work was started some two months
ago it was estimated that it would be
necessary to run about 500 feet to
reach the ore shoot This distance
has been reduced about half and rap
id progress is being made. This tun-
mel will give something more than 100
feet additional depth and if the ore
shoot continues to incrase in extent as
it appears to above, large body Of
ORC VIII De lIlduS easily dNlll1DlS.
The demand for high grade anti
mony continues strong, and the high
price with the gold content renders
the Stanley product about the most
attractive in the district 1t has been
suggested that if the size of the ore
shoot warrants it, the Days might
conclude to add antimony smelling to
their Northport plant.

WEST HUNTER COMPANY
DRIVE TUNNEL EAST
VEIN LOCATED BY OPEN CUTS
FOR 5000 FEET-LEAD VAL
UES DISCLOSED.

Preparations were completed this
week to begin active and permanent
development of the West Hunter grour
of claims north of Mullan, hardly more
than half mile from town, and with
in the mineral belt between the Nor
ming and Hunter. Most of this ground
was located within the last few
months, although it is in the heart of
one of the richest sections of the
Occur d'Alene district. Since organi-
zation of the company much surface
work has been done with the view t.,
determining the course of the vein
and this work has evidently proved
more successful than was anticipated
For distance of about 5000 feet the
vein has been disclosed at intervals
by open cuts, showing the width o.
the vein to range from to IL feet.
Lead Values in Vein.
The general character of the vein
even without mineral values, would
Justify development, but as matter
of fact assays made from samples
taken at various points show most
encouraging results. A sample of the
tale near the creek showed 3.9 per cen'
lead, while high on the hill a sample
from the ledge gave a return of A.
per cent. On the extreme east end OF
the company's ground on the Miles
claim at a point almost over the
course of the Hunter No tunnel 9
sample assayed "a per cent lead.
Having completed all preliminary
investigations, the company will now
drive a tunnel east from Mill creek
This will cut the vein at distance Of
about 270 feet and at depth of 1877
feet. Drifting east will proceed as
rapidly as possible, and 1t is estimat-
ed that 1000 feet will give a depth o.
1000 feet, and 1t is confidently expect
ed that the showing disclosed by that
time will demonstrate the value of the
property and justify its more extend
ed development.

|NTERMOUNTA|N MILL
NEARING COMPLETION
MUCH ACCOMPLISHED IN SHORT
TlME-oRE IN SIGHT TO RUN
SEVERAL YEARS.

The new mill for the Intermountain
mine, formerly called the Amador
near Iron Mountain, Mont, is expected
to be completed in about two weeks
This is the information given out by
Oscar Nordquist manager of the pro-
perty, who was in the city the first of
the week and returned to the mine
yesterday morning. Actual work of
restoring the old property to condi-
ton for operation began on July %
Since that date a new mill Of 100 tons
capacity has been constructed and
most of the machinery installed, q
new flume has been built mile anf
a half in length, the mine has been
unwatered down to the 400 level, and
numerous other improvements of less
importance but essential have been
made. The mill is now practically
completed, the delay in starting being
due to failure of certain machinery tc
arrive which is long overdue.
Much Ore in Sight.
The mine has been opened to q
depth of 700 feet, but Mr.. Nordquist
says it is not the purpose to lower the
water for the present below the 400,
as this will make available ore enough
to run the mill two or three years. It
is also estimated that there is ore on
the dump sufficient to run the mill
for three or four months.
The mine is connected with the rail
road by a branch railroad about 10
miles in length, built by the old ANA
dor company This road is not built
to accommodate heavy engines. The
company has several flat cars and
gasoline motor which handles the
freight business between the mine
and the railroad. The road, however
is a standard gauge and could be
changed to meet the requirements OF
heavy rolling stock with Gmpara-
lively small expense.

A telephone message from Theodore
Brown a few days ago stated that the
crosscut he and John Finnel have been
running with all possible speed dur
ing the last few months had cut the
vein which showed fully two and
half feet of 20 per cent antimony ore
and several additional feet of lower
grade ore. He was much enthused
over the strike and stated that ship
ment would be made as soon as the
ore could be transported to the rail-
road A gravity tramway will deliver
the ore from the tunnel to the wagon
road cable and other equipment for
which is now on the ground. 1t is un-
derstood that Brown & Finnel have

pany was in the city Tuesday, mo-
toring from Murray and accompanied
by his daughtet. In the cours, e
conversation with him he gave some
Interesting facts In connection with
his mining properly which was for.
merly known as the Granite & Allie
1t is located on Granite creek, about
Az miles above Murray Since taxi
ing over the property several years
ago, in addition to accomplishing
much development work, the company
has erected all necessary buildings in
the most substantial mannr installed
an Ingersoll- Rand compressor, built
flume S135 feet in length which con-
veys an abundant supply of water
having a vertical head of 800 feet
This supplies the power which applied
to a 6-fOot Pelton wheel runs the
compressor and hoist and during the
most of the year has power to spare.
Soon Have New Shaft.
| The present shaft Is sunk near the
creek and is 167 feet deep. In order
to get away from the creek and avoid
handling so much water, a drift has
been run from the bottom of the shaf-
toward the mountain a distance Of
$50 feet and from this a raise Is be-
ing made to the surface, a distance Of
1856 feet. This raise Is now up 60 fee
and a new contract has just been let
for its completion, which it is believ.
ed will not consume more than 60
days. This raise will then become
the working shaft, the collar of which
will be at an elevation of about q
feet on the slope of the hill. 1t Is tn,
purpose of the management, as soon
as the raise is completed and ready
, to operate as a shaft, to extend 1t 200
feet crosscut back to the vein, which
will then be explored by drifts in both
directions and a large body of com
mercial ore is expected
Vein So Feet Wide.
At the bottom of the present shaft
where the vein has been crosscut
and drifted upon for a distance of A.
feet it is So feet wide and shows II
feet of good milling lead silver ore
and more or less ore the entire width
This II feet of milling ore contains
much that is of shipping grade The
ore carries a good value in gold; in
fact the property was originally To-
Gated years ago for gold mine, but
the gold values were never sufficient
to make it profitable.
Novel Foundation.
Below the present workings Is ar
old cyanide plant erected years ago t.
recover the gold supposed to be in tho
ore. This is built Of concrete with
walls foot in thickness, the plant be
ing 22x3S feet. This has been utiliz
ed as the foundation for a modern
residence of five rooms in which Mr.
Taylor lives while the concrete por-
tion is used for kitchen, dining room
and cellar.
Below this residence, 5000 feet be
low the mine workings, is the com
pressor with 4-inch air line to the
shaft This plant develops 10 horse
power and requires no attention ex
cept oiling once or twice a day.
