NON-PART|SAN RECEPTION AND PARTISAN
BANQUET IN HONOR Of GOV. ALEXANDER
THE ITS PURPosE-sMALL ATTENDANCE
LATTER CONSIDERING PuRPoRTED STRENGTH OF
sHosHoNE COUNTY DEMOCRACY
The visit of Governor Alexander toe

The visit of Governor Alexander to
Shoshone county last week must have
been rather disappointing. The at
tempt to give the reception to the
governor a non partisan complexion
was a dismal failure. Everybody un-
derstood that he was here strictly as
a partisan candidate for denomination
put in an appearance at the recep
ton. Those who attended were pre-
sented to Governor Alexander by John
p. Mahoney. The function was held
in the lobby of the Samuels hotel and
the assemblage had the appearance of
a gathering of democrats, owing to the
scarcity of republicans and represen-
tatives of other political faith. There
was nothing to suggest a nom -parti-
san reception save the presumptious
announcement in the Day daily that
it would be of that character. This
non partisan role has been played by
the governor continuously since he
assumed he duties of office purely as
means of gaining political prestige
and party advantage. 1t is not known
how successful he has been in other
sections of the state but if his recep-
ton in this city may be taken as a
criterion, he will have to devise some
new scheme to hood-wink the voters
if he hopes to serve another term in
the state house.

BUNKER HILL DIVIDEND.
Company Will Make Another Double
Disbursement Tomorrow.

Tomorrow the Bunker Hill & Sulli-
van company will pay two dividends
of 25 cents per share each, amounting
to $163,500. The company has paid a
double dividend every month this
year, bringing the total amount paid
this year up to $1,144,500. The COM
pany has a total dividend record of
ST, ,917 900. The known ore reserves
are now reported to be greater than
ever before, and with the completion
of the smelter now in course of con-
struction the company will be in posi-
tion to greatly increase its earning
capacity. One million dollars has
been appropriated for the construction
of the smelter, and after paying the
large dividends each month it is stat
ed that the company is still adding to
it's large surplus.

force the governor in self-defense to
explain why he vetoed it. Mr.. Day
was much interested in the compensa-
ton law and was deeply disappointed
when the governor killed it with his
veto, but at a democratic love feast
bygones are supposed to be bygones,
and it was ungrateful in Mr.. Day on
such an occasion to force the govern
or to frame an excuse for his act, for
while the explanation he gave may
have sounded we'll to his hearers,
there are many people throughout the
state who will not accept 1t, and who
will continue to believe that 1t was
the influence of the labor union vote
that induced the veto.

SUNSET.
Mine Shut Down for a Week to Repair
Electric Motor.

The Sunset mine closed down Mon
day in order to repair the electric mo-
tor, which is estimated to require
about a week. The work will be done
by an electrician sent over from Butte
for the purpose. When work suspend
ed the shaft was down 720 feet and
was being extended at the rate of
about 80 feet per month. At 800 feet
the vein will be crosscut and extern
slvely explored, and If the showing
proves satisfactory 1t is expected that
plans for the development of the pro-
perty will be at once undertaken on a
large scale. The Sunset is owned by
Senator Clark, Of Montana. He is now
in Butte, where he is expected to re-
main until after the election in No
vember, and it is believed that he will
visit Wallace and inspect the mine
sometime in September.

The drift west on the Old veteran
has now been extended 45 feet and
Manager M. ]. Farrell says the show
ing in the face could hardly be better
without being in ore. The entire face
is reported mineralized and along the
footwall there is streak of tale and
gouge matter that gives strong evi-
dence of carrying lead. In the upper
tunnel there is a shoot of carbonate
ore which assays considerable lead
and silver. The lower drift will have
to be run probably 250 feet to get un-
der this, but indications are favorable
to ore before that point is reached. The
foot wall is being followed and there
is no evidence of the hanging.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Manager of Property Spends Several
DAYS in District.


F. c. Bailey, who has an option on
control of the Vienna a-International
group of claims on Placer creek, re-
turned to Spokane Sunday He stated
that hoist and pump are being in
stalled and that as soon as they are
in operation work in the shaft will be-
gin. 1t is probable that drifts will be
extended for probably 100 feet from
the bottom of the shaft, which has
been sunk 100 feet from No. tunnel,
and then it is the purpose Of the man
agement to sink 100 ana possibly 200
feet further. There is parallel vein
on the property which appears on the
surface to be larger than the one un-
der development, and it is probable
that crosscut will be started to ex-
plore 1t at an early date.

Carl Magnee, manager of the Blue
Bell Mining company, was up from
Big creek yesterday. He has just COM

the Blue Bell vein and 1t is understood
that he will take a new contract to
drive so or 100 feet further. The total
length of the drift is about 500 feet
The vein has all the favorable indica
tions and seems to fully justify the
exploration it is receiving. The Blue
Bell is situated at the head of Big

The banquet in honor of the govern
or in the evening was strictly demo-
cratic affair, and while it must be
credited with being little more sue
cessful than the mon partisan" re-
ception, still it was a meager showing
from the democracy that boasts of
having made Shoshone the banner
democratic county in the state. The
Day daily says there were 40 in at
tendance and this is one Of the rare
instances in which a statement from
that source may be accepted as cor
rect. Only 40 of the faithful at the

who is relied upon to lead them to
victory this fall The absence Of
many well known democrats was per-
haps the most striking feature of the
occasion. Their absence may be ac-
counted for in a variety of reasons,
chief of which were that many of the
faithful had grown weary of the gov
ernor's continuous performance in the
spotlight and opposition to the DOM
ination Of the democracy of Shoshone
county by the Day-Walker machine.
That these reasons were well founded
was amply exemplified at the banquet,
which resolved itself into a mutual
admiration society in which Governor
Alexander, Harry L. Day and Ramsey
Walker were the central figures.

Rebuilding the cribbing at the Silver

it is estimated by Ed Ehrenberg that

ed very favorable for an ore body

perty is located in the midst of a
wonderfully rich mineral section, be-
ing just across the canyon from the
Frisco.

Another feature of the governor s
speech which did not appear in good
form considering his professed devo-
tion to the Wilson administration was
his commendation and congratulation
of Day and Walker for having surren-
dered the charter of the Wallace Ma
tional bank and converted 1t into a
state institution. Having taken occa-
sion to approve in unmeasured terms
the new currency law which was faith
cred by the president and which is
claimed to have brought such great
benefits to the national banking sys-
tenn, it was rather inconsistent to say
the least for the governor to extol the
business sagacity Of bankers for CIV
ing up national bank charter at a
time when the country is presumed to
be just beginning to reap the benefits
of this long delayed democratic legis-
lation.

A quiet and observing democrat in
dulged in some interesting comments
on the banquet and particularly upon
the speeches of Governor Alexal1er
and Harry Day, the two most notable
address of the evening. He said the
governor marred an otherwise credit
able speech by branching off frequent
ly to eulogize Harry Day and Ramsey
Walker, the first of whom has at times
acted as the governors personal rep
resentative and the latter was recently
appointed a member Of the state board
of education. The governor seemed
obsessed with the idea, which is
doubtless correct, that Day and Walk
er are the whole thing" so far as the
democratic party of Shoshone county
is concerned, and, to use the forceful
If not eloquent language of this OBJ
serving democrat, he spoiled a nice
speech by frequent diversions to tell
what a hell of pair they are" all of
which immensely pleased the governor
and the subjects of his praise by
drawing out generous applause.

PRESERVATION OF PEACE
ON AMERICAN CONTINENT
And Development Of Pan-American
Unity Aim of United States, Says
Secretary Lansing.

WashingtOn-Pleas for greater
I Pan-Americanism were numerous Fri
day in the program of the Pan-Ameri-
can Scientific Congress, in spite of
the great volume of papers read on
technical subjects.
Scores of questions of n interna-
tional character were discussed, and
talked OF the capitalization of the
Pan-American idea into a concrete
form that might become known as the
Pan-American alliance.
Secretary Lansing has suggested to
all the nations which. with the Unit
ed States, comprise the Pan-American
Union that they join in a convention
for the arbitration OF all boundary line
disputes and for the prohibition OF
shipments Of war munitions to revolu-
tionaries.
Secretary Lansing's proposal, which
has the full support of President Will
son, is being forwarded by the Latin
American ambassadors and ministers
to their home foreign offices for con-
sideration. 1t is regarded as one OF
the steps In a wide plan, in which the
Pan-American Scientific Congress, now
In session in Washington, is a part,
for preservation OF peace on the West
ern Hemisphere and a closer union OF
all the Americas.
Many OF Mr.. Lansing's declarations
to the Pan-American Congress took on
added significance Friday In the light
OF his proposals to the Latin Ameri-
can republics.
within recent years." said he, the
United States has found no occasion,
with the exception of the Venezuelan
boundary incident, to remind Europe
that the Monroe doctrine continues
unaltered as a national policy in this
republic. The republics of America
are no longer children in the great
family of nations. They have attain
ed maturity"
At another point Mr.. Lansing said:
When we attempt to analyze Pan
Americanism we find the essential
qualities are those of the family
sympathy, helpfulness, a sincere de-
sire to see another grow in prosper
ity, absence of covetousness of an
others possessions, absence of jeal-
ousy of another's prominence and,
above ALL absence of that spirit of in
trigue which menaces the domestic
peace of a neighbor'
