Interest In East Tennessee.

Nov. 7.
Interest In East Tennessee.
The opening of headquarters in
Knoxville. with Judge James F. BA-
ker as chairman in charge, and Jesse
S. COttrell as secretary, has created
renewed interest in East Tennessee,
as a concerted effort is being made to
stimulate the Republican vote in that
section to full strength, and rapid
strides are being made. Judge Baker
is an able Republican, well versed in
East Tennessee Republican affairs as
well as all over the state.
At the state headquarters in Nash

national literature are being mailed
out daily, and there is an activity
prevalent that spells success on Nov.

The Hecla Mining company paid
dividend No. 1862 last Monday, Is cents
per share and amounting to $150,00o.
Total paid this year, $1,400,000, and
grand total credited to the mine, $5,-
$4,000 Assuming that the Decem-
Der dividend will be Is cents, the
year will close with a record of ST.
$4,000 But the report persists that
Hecla stockholders are to receive an
extra dividend for Christmas and this
is regarded quite probable in view of
the large surplus in the treasury and
the recent advance in the price of lead
and silver so the figures for 1916 may
be increased by 100000, or an extra
disbursement of 10 cents per share. 1t
is believed from information regarded
reliable that Hecla will increase its
monthly dividend rate beginning with
January from Is to 20 cents. This
would be at the rate of $2.40 per share,
or $2,400,000 for the year. The splen-
did condition of the mine, the enlarg-
ed milling facilities and the strong

The recent advance in the stock of
the Independence Lead Mines COM
pany indicates that there is some foun-
dation for the rumors of an important
strike in the property but definite in
formation on the subject has not yet
been obtainable. The property is fam
iliarly known as the Gettysburg and
joins the Morning on the east, pre-
sumably covering both the Morning

a period of years all combine to con-
firm the prediction that 1917 will wit
ness a new high record for Hecla. The
addition to the mill which will bring
it's daily capacity up to 700 tons per
day will be completed by December Is,
being practically the tonnage that Is
now being handled by the company's
mill and the Federal leased mill, The
Federal lease will expire on the same
date In this connection an interest
ing report has been current this week,
but which lacks official confirmation.
1t is that the Hecla company has Sc
cured lease on the Marsh mill, on
Nine Mile. This mill is in excellent
condition, having been overhauled and
remodeled by the Marsh company
shortly before it suspended operations
and is said to be well adapted to the
Hecla ore. It's capacity is 200 tons
per day, which added to the enlarged
capacity of the Hecla mill would give
an available milling capacity of 900
tons per day.

ST. LAWRENCE BONDED
WILL WORK ALL WINTER
RICHMOND MAY USE ST. LAWR-
ENCE TUNNEL-HAS LARGE
AMOUNT OF ORE.

H. M. Lancaster, who until recently
was superintendent of the Richmond,
has taken a bond on the ST. Lawrence,
which joins the Richmond on the west
and is now giving his attention to the
development of that we'll known pro-
perty The st. Lawrence is about 6
miles from Saltese, on the Montana
slope of the Idaho Montana divide,
while the Richmond is on the Idaho
side, the two groups joining practic-
ally on the summit. Both properties
have been opened by shaft near the
summit, but the main development of
the st. Lawrence is a tunnel from
which a considerable amount of high
grade copper has been taken out and
shipped. Mr.. Lancaster went over to
the property Tuesday to complete ar
rangements for work during the win
ter, his intention being to employ
three or four men on development
during the winter preparatory to
shipments in the spring. The St.
Lawrence is owned by Angus and Dan
Sutherland, of this city.
Richmond May Use St. Lawrence
Tunnel.
The st. Lawrence tunnel has been
extended into the Richmond ground by
the Richmond company, and a raise is
now being made to connect the Rich
mond tunnel on the Idaho side with
the ST. Lawrence, the difference in
elevation being about 40 feet. When
this plan is carried out the Richmond
will be enabled to cut out the present
haul over the summit by delivering its
ore to the wagon road on the Mon
tana side through the st. Lawrence
tunnel. A large amount of ore has
been blocked out in the Richmond, and
lit is said on authority that there is
enough ore in sight to ship 100 tons a
day for year, but 1t is of course i'm
possible for the company to deliver
that amount to the railroad with the
present facilities. About 20 men are
employed by the company and five OF
six four-horse teams are engaged in
hauling the ore to the railroad at Sal
tese. Since Mr.. Lancaster left the
Richmond the property is being work
ed under the direction of c. A. Pooley

|DAHO.NEVADA HOIST
IN OPERATION DEC. |.
WILL DRIFT EAST FROM BOTTOM
OF THE SHAFT-DETAILs OF
RETURNS ON ORE.

The new hoist for the Idaho Nevada
on Placer creek is being installed a
skip pocket put in and everything Is
expected to be in working order by
the first of the month. The work of
cutting the station, timbering it and
getting in shape for the new shaft
has consumed more time than was an
ticipated, but beginning about the first
all indications point to steady devel-
opment An electric pump and motor
to run it have been purchased and
these will be installed by the time the
hoist is ready. Work has been sus-
pended in the upper level, the purpose
being to confine operations to the east
drift from the bottom of the shaft. The
shaft is 200 feet deep and drifts have
been run about rs feet in east and
west, both being in ore. In the upper
level there is good showing of ore
about 200 feet from the shaft, and the
east drift 200 feet below will be ex-
tended under this as rapidly as possi-
BILE.
The electric pump will relieve the
compressor of that burden, which will
enable it to furnish an abundance of
power for the drills and hoist, which
will greatly facilitate development.
Returns on Ore Shipment.
The car of ore recently shipped
weighed 69,280 pounds gross; moisture
1.8 per cent, leaving the net weight
6S,033 pounds. The assay value of the
ore was 4.57 per cent copper, 1.5 ounces
silver and .02 ounce gold. The ore al
so carried 14.9 per cent silica and 372
per cent iron. The treatment charge
was 1927 per ton. The value of the
shipment was $603.45, from which was
deducted freight and demurrage
charge of SO, amounting to $98.29,
leaving the. net value to the company
$50516. The settlement was made on
a basis of 80 per cent Of the copper
and silver value. The quotations on
the day of settlement were: Copper,
27417 cents and silver 6S "a cents.
There was also an allowance for the
iron content, but just what it amount
ed to was not learned.

on the payroll, and every effort is be-
ing made to round up all outside work

J. C. McAndrews, of Edmonton, AL
berta, was in the city yesterday, hav-
ing come up from Pine creek where
he spent several days at the Interna-
tional on the west fork, in which he
is heavily interested. Other large
stockholders reside in North Dakota,
where Mr.. McAndrews formerly re-
sided. He states that a second shift
has just been added and the work
on the property is progressing very
satisfactorily under the direction of
Fred May. A gasoline compressor
was recently installed at the Interna-
tional and all necessary new buildings
for the comfort of employees and to
meeting the requirements of opera
tions. There are two strong veins
that intersect each other on the com
pany's ground. A drift has been run
on one of these, the smaller, for about
500 feet, disclosing a continuous shoot
Of lead and zinc ore. Samples of this
ore assay 9.4 per cent lead and 42.S
zinc. This drift will be continued
this winter to the intersection of the
second and larger vein, and the i'm
mense outerop indicates that a large
ore body will be found. In the mean
time the present ore shoot shows
steady improvement as the drift ad-
vances and considerable ore is ac-
cumulating on the dump.

A recently issued letter from the dir

announces that pump has been or
dered which should be delivered about
December /. Upon it's installation
the mine will be unwatered, which
will probably require sixty days, when
development of the property will be
resumed. A crosscut will be run on
the 400 level into the O'Neil ground
which is under lease from the Federal
and it is possible that further explora-
tion of the Got EN- Now ground will
be made at depth. To carry out the

Steps Being Taken To Prosecute Illegal
Voters and Those Who VOuChed for Them

Twelve Hundred sworn In votes
were cast in this county at the recent
election. Most of these votes We're of
course legal, and the large number who
failed to register and who voted in
this manner simply emphasizes the
folly of the Idaho election law. But
hundreds of these votes were illegal
cast by men and women who either
had not acquired legal residence in
this county or who were not citizens
of the United States. The limited in
vestigation that has been made leaves
no room for doubt on this question.
In Mullan, in every Wallace precinct,
in Sunset percinct and no doubt in
other parts of the county men and
women voted who stated that
they were not entitled to vote and

who were urged and persuaded to do
so by paid workers for the democratic
ticket. 1t is possible that enough of
these fraudulent votes were cast to
account for the majority ATTAINED by
Alexander for governor. Reports from
all parts of the state indicate that the
same system of Illegal voting prevail
ed to a more or less extent. The linn
tied investigation that has been made
has brought out positive proof in sew
eral instances and the matter of pros
ecuting the offenders, both the illegal
voters and those who vouched for
them, is under consideration. The law
provides severe penalty for illegal
voting or aiding in the same. 1t
should be invoked and enforced to the
limit,

new MILL FOR HUNTER
REPORT FROM MULLAN
PREPARING TO SINK FROM 1900
LEVEL-DIAMoND DRILL
LOCATES ORE.

r. j. Kelley, of Chicago, president
ing company, has been at Mulan sew
eral days giving his attention to an
inspection of the mine in which he is
the chief owner. From Mullan peo-
agement it is learned that extensive
plans for the development and better
ment of the Hunter are under consid-
Grafton and it is believed that steps
out. While there are large ore re-
serves in the Hunter, it is stated that
the showing on the 1900, the lowest
level, has been somewhat disappoint-
ing and for this reason before sink
ing further the ground has been thor
oughly prospected with a diamond
drill That this work has proved sat
isfactory and that the ore body has
been definitely located at further
depth is indicated by the fact that
preparations are being made to sink
from the 1900. 1t is learned and this
is further evidence of the extent of the
ore disclosed by the diamond drill
that the company will install a mod
ern hoist that will meet the re-
quirements of the mine for all time
The manufacturers, however, will no
guarantee a delivery in less than &
year and possibly longer, and for thai
reason steps are now being taken t
place a small hoist on the 1900 to bt
used in sinking.
Build New Mill.
Another plan for the expansion o
the Hunter involves the construction
of a new mill. This is understood t,
have been under consideration for
long time and it is believed now tha
it will be undertaken in the spring.
will be recalled that there is a veil
parallel to the main Hunter lead veil
which carries very high values in sill
yer, and that in the ordinary process
of concentration this silver ore suf
fered a heavy loss. 1t was primartl,
to overcome this loss that the flota
tion process was introduced into tn
Hunter mill Flotation proved ad
mirably adapted to recover the silve
and also to increase the recovery o
lead, but experience soon demonstrat
ed that the flotation equipment re
quired different process for the leaC
and silver in order to get the best re
suits. Owing to this difficulty it i!
stated that no ore is now being ruI
from the silver vein, the company
having under consideration plan fol
milling it independently which viii
insure a high percentage Of recovery
The plan as understood is to build &
new and modern mill to handle the
lead ores and to transform the ole
mill into an exclusive flotation PLAN
which will treat the rich silver ore
from the parallel vein. The develop
ment of the ore shoot below the 1906
will be followed by the new milling
facilities here outlined, according tC
apparently reliable information from
Mullan.
