OF Idaho, spoke Of the wonderful
changes that the last few years had
Witnessed in the mining operations of
the Occur d'Alenes, the upsetting Of
established theories regarding the To-
cation OF ore deposits. and in general
the healthy condition Of the mining
industry throughout the state. OF
special interest were his remarks on
the tremendous value Of the phos-
plate deposits in the southeastern part
Of the state.
A. ]. Dunn, editor of The Wallace
Miner. urged the engineers to cooper
ate with the bureau Of mines in It's
announced purpose to eliminate so far
as possible technical terms and In
general to simplify language in the
discussion of mining subjects.
J. M. Porter. pioneer mining engin-
eer Of the Occur d'Alenes. and now
residing in Spokane, compared the
manner Of conducting mining litiga-
tion now with the methods that pre-
vailed In the old days. While of a
decidedly humorous turn, the conipar-
ison was mott without substantial facts
and the conclusion was clearly in fav-
or Of present day methods.
Visit the Bunker Hill.
A vote of thanks was extended to
the local engineers and all others who
had In any manner contributed to the
success of the two days session. Sec
rotary Armstrong called attention to
the fact that there were quite large
number present who were eligible tc
membership and urged them to be-
come members.
In adjourniRg the meeting Stanly
A. Easton invited the engineers to Wis
It the Bunker Hill & Sullivan mine
and mill the next day, and a large
number took advantage of the oppor-
tunity to do so by leaving on the early
train Sunday morning and stopping at
Kellogg until the afternoon train.

The following interesting paragraph
taken from the decision throws light
on the manner in which the profits Of
the company have been disbursed In
the payment Of high salaries to favor
ed officers who performed no service;
"The Northwest Light & Water
company, the defendant herein, has its
general offices at Spokane, and. as
herelnbefore stated owns and operates
the electric light plant and the water
plant at Wallace. Idaho, and the
Sumpter light and water plant at
Sumpter, Oregon. Robert e. Strahorn,
who is the president and general man
ager of the company, has been receiv-
ing the sum Of $SS5.00 per month a.
part salary, which is charged to the
Wallace electric light plant, the ball
anee of his salary. Che receiving alto
gether the sum of $6,000.00 per an
NUM-. being charged ito the other two
plants. A. G. Smith, who Is acting as
secretary and treasurer of the COM
pany, has been receiving as part Of
his salary the sum of $1S4.35 per
month, which is charged to the Wal
lace electric light plant, the balance Of
his salary being charged to the other
two plants. Mr. Danson. who has
been acting in the capacity Of general
attorney for the company. has been
receiving the sum of $69.5l per month
as part OF his salary that has been
charged to the Wallace light plant. d.
c. McKissick is the local manager at
Wallace and has the management Of
both the light and water plants at that
point. The evidence discloses the fact
that Messrs. Strahorn and Smith have
practically nothing to do with the ac-
tive management of this light plant al
Wallace. In fact, II appears from the
evidence. that Mr.. Strahorn has not
visited the plant at wallace for over
two years. Mr.. McKissick sends in his
periodical reports. monthly or other
wise, together with remIttances. and
about the only duty these Spokane Of
icers have to perform is to dispense
dividend checks. Under such circum-
stances there is little use of maintain
ing an Office at Spokane at all. The
commission finds that the sum Of 5000
per annum is a reasonable allowance
for the Spokane Office, which win am
ply cover all expenses connected will.

In circular letter just issued to the

OF the bonds OF the company have de-

Their funds for the development Of the
property. The bonds were underwrit-

the erection of a mill and tramway.
and permission had been obtained to
use the funds for limited amount Of
development work in order to avoid
the necessity Of levying assessments
The underwriters II appears are not
disposed to provide further funds for
that purpose at this time, and the d.
rectors have therefore levied an as
sessment Of 5 mills which they ex-
press the belief will provide sufficient
means to reach the ore shoot on the

assessments unnecessary.

INTERESTING FACTS REGARDING
DISCOVERY OF GOLD IN
CALIFORNIA.

The historically important discovery
Of gold in California was made in jan
uary, 1S48, at John Suffers mill on
the South Fork Of American river near
Coloma, point only 10 or Is miles
southeast of the town of Auburn. From
1850 to 1853 the greatest yield was de-
rived from the gravels and the larg-
est annual output for this period was
more than $65.0O0,O In 1852. There
was some reaction in 1854. due to pre-
vious wild speculation, but a produc-
ton of about $50,00O,O0O year, chiefly
from placer mines, was maintained up
to 1851.
At first the gold was won chiefly
from the graves along the present
streams. Those who first got posses
sion of the rich bars on American, Yu-
ba, Feather and Stanislaus rivers and
some of the smaller streams In the
heart Of gold region made at times
from $1,000 to $4,000 day. In 1853
$500 to $500 a day was not unusual
luck; but on the other hand the in
come OF the great majority Of miners
was far less than that of men who
seriously devoted themselves to trade
or even to common labor.
Early Mining Methods.
The gold pan, the rocker" the
tom" the sluice, and the hydraulic
giant" or monitor" named in the
order of increasing efficiency, were the
tools successfully used by the miners,
Into the rocker and the tom the miner
shoveled gravel or dirt, rocking the
machine as he poured in the water,
and catching the gold, often with the
aid Of quicksilver, on rifles set across
the bottom of his box. Sometimes .
stream was diverted into a flume to
lay bare the gravel in its bed so that
the miner could get at Il. In sluicing
the gravel was shoveled into a sim
liar but much longer box through
which stream Of water was allowed
to rum The hydraulic giant was en-
ployed to wash into long riffle-set
Sluices immense quantities OF gravel
especially from the higher (Tertiary)
deposits, much of which was too lean
to work out by hand. Water was
brought for many miles in bitches and
fumes from the high Sierras and con-

ed into the streams by these hydraul-
ic operations that brought about the
conflict between mining and agricul.
tural interests. finally decided in favo'
OF the farmers. In late years the gold
obtained from quartz veins in Cali
fornia has exceeded that won by pla-
Ger mining.
