credit upon the people of this city.
Whatever may be the attitude of the

evident that the people of Wallace and
the Occur d'Alene district are not ito

vinced that justice and honor demand
it. In less than "a hours from the
time that the recruiting office was

the entire population such as was

GUT OLD VETERAN VEIN

MUCH PLEASED WITH
THE SHOWING.

The Old Veteran Mining company

the survey indicated that 1t would be
and where it was crosscut measures
more than feet from wall to wall.
Both walls carry tale seams and the
vein filling is composed of lime, iron
and crushed quartzite which leads the
officials of the company to believe that
ore will be encountered within a short
time, After cutting the ledge the No.
8 tunnel was driven into the hanging
wall 20 feet in order to explore the
formation there before drifting opera
tions were started. Those who have
visited the property since the ledge
was encountered are enthusiastic over

visited the property last Sunday and
outlined the future development.
The Old Veteran company was or
ganized in March, 1915, and it's stock
was placed on the market at two mills
per share with the understanding that
assessments of two mills per share
would be levied at periods of 60 days
to provide funds for the continuous
development of the property. Work
was started in April, 1915, and has
been carried on since that time. The
company owns claims two miles
above Burke which cover the ledge for
a distance of 1000 feet and the devel-
opments to date and the system of
funds have proven most sat
isfactory. Drifting on the ledge Is to
be pushed as rapidly as possible.

Directors Complete Arrangements for
Construction This Summer.
1t was authoritatively announced in
Spokane last week that the directors
of the Constitution Mining company
have definitely decided to build mill
this summer and have completed all
financial arrangements. 1t is stated
that present stockholders will sub
scribe for sufficient treasury stock to
cover the expense. 1t is probable that
an experimental plant will be put in
first to try out the ore, which is
complex combination Of lead and zinc
The mill will probably be Of $50 tons
capacity, and will be constructed near
the mine, which is about 10 miles from
the railroad. The decision to build
the mill is taken as evidence that the
company expects a railroad up Pine
creek this summer.

TO REORGAN|zE MARSH
RESUME WORK At ONCE
INDEBTEDNESS OF COMPANY is
TAKEN UP-DETAILS OF
REORGANIZATION.

The directors of the Marsh Mining
company, who have been in session
here during most of the week consid-
ering plans for the reorganization of
the company apd resumption of op-
erations at the mine, have about COM
pleted their work, but some details
remain to be worked out before
statement is made to the public. The
plans contemplate the organization of
a new company which will probably be
known as the Consolidated Marsh
Mines company and stockholders in
the old company will receive an equal
number of shares in the new. The
CoWell and Plummer notes for $4,000
each, which were made the basis of
an attachment of the property of the
company last week, have been paid
and papers were filed yesterday with
drawing the court proceedings.
Will Begin Work on Property.
The work of the directors has pro-
gressed to such an extent that Mr.. Lee
and Mr.. Pohlman authorize the state
ment that resumption of operations
will begin at once. Unwatering the
mine will not be undertaken at this
time, but the Got EN- Now vein,
about 600 feet north of and parallel to
the Marsh lead, will receive attention.
This vein was cut in the Gertie tun-
mel 512 feet from the portal, and shows
over two feet of very promising vein
material. While definite arrangements
tie company it is reasonably certain
permission will be obtained to use the
tunnel and to obtain power from that
company. 1t is therefore the purpose
to begin drifting west on the Got EN-
Now vein from the Gertie, and the in
dications are favorable to developing
an ore shoot. The fact that cross
cut was run from the 400 level of the
Marsh shaft 500 or 900 feet without in
tercepting the vein is not regarded un-
favorably since a fault was encoun-

M. W. Lee and Edward Pohlman,

noon for Spokane where it is expect
ed that negotiations will be closed
which will result in a valuable acqui-
sition to the Marsh holdings. The
control is in strong hands, many of +

among whom are several prominent

Smith and others. With Spokane
the new control represents
over 100000 shares. The investiga-
tions of the directors have convinced |
them that the Marsh can be placed |
upon a profit earning basis, and to
accomplish this they are proceeding on
a conservative business plan and
with assurance of an abundant finan-
cial support. w. Earl Greenough is

Northwestern Reporter, 566, it was

Where a reservation of mineral
rights was inserted in a deed in viola
tlon of contract of purchase and
without the grantees knowledge or
consent, the deed was subject to can
collation. as being fraudulent"

The argument was made Thursday
evening and the decision was rendered
Saturday morning. The matter of
continuing the temporary restraining
order pending the hearing Of the case
on its merits rests upon the sound
discretion of the court to be exercised
in accordance with the evil that might
accrue to the respective parties In
the absence of any proof in support of
the plaintiffs complaint, Judge Woods
ordered the temporary restraining or
der vacated, set aside and dismissed.
Mr.. Miller Immediately gave notice
of an appeal to the supreme court and
the court ordered q stay of execution
of his order for five days. This period
expires today. No appeal has been
filed, and it Is known that at least one
of the plaintiffs has withdrawn from
the case.

ORDER RESTRAINING COUNCIL IN PAVING
CONTRACT DISMISSED By JUDGE WOODS
ATTORNEYS PLAINTIFFS TO MAKE SHOWING OF PROOF
IN SUPPORT OF COMPLEMENTARY STRONGLY REPRE-
sENTED BY woRsTELL AND WAYNE

Wallace is to have paved streets
without further delay. Divested of all
legal verbiage, that is the meaning of
the action of Judge Woods in dismiss
ing the temporary restraining order
entering into a paving contract with
the Oregon Engineering & Construc-
tion company. The utter failure of
the attorneys for the plaintiffs to
make any showing of proof whatever
in support of the allegations set up in
the complaint proved conclusively the
absence of good faith in the action and
that it was prompted by mixed mo-
tives including malicious desire to
harrass the council in the perform
ance of it's duty, determination to
prevent paving at any price, and a
spirit of retaliation against the sue
cessful bidder through disappoint-
had to give out. Back of the plain
tiffs stood the Day faction with as
surance of financial support and the
Day daily endeavoring to poison the
minds of the people through the pub
lication of base insinuations of graft
in connection with the paving con-
tract. But it is useless and unprofit-
able now to attempt to review the
shameless methods resorted to in the
attempt to thWart the people in their
desire to have the streets of the city
paved. The whole scheme has re-
suited in a fiasco which those who
were responsible for it would like to
have forgotten.

RICH BIG CREEK ORE
IN TWO PROPERTIES
LEASERS ARE PUTTING IN A
COMPRESSOR AND AERIAL
TRAMWAY.

The plans for operations being car
ried out by the leasers of the upper
workings of the Big Creek Mining
company indicate that the showing of
ore must be one of unusual merit, as
heavy expense is being incurred in the
equipment which would hardly be JUS
titled otherwise. In fact there are ru-
mors of wonderfully rich ore as well
as much of the grade that has been
shipped at intervals during the past
year and which yielded a return of
from 70 to 10 ounces in silver The
leasers are now installing COM
pressor to be driven by electric power
and will also erect an aerial tramway
from the mine to the railroad.
The Big Creek company is planning
to soon begin driving crosscut which
will cut the ore shoot now being
worked above by the leasers at a
depth of 500 feet. Arrangements were
practically completed to proceed with
this work at the recent meeting of the
stockholders.
Yankee Boy Lease.
In connection with these operations
it is interesting to note the success
that is attending the Big Creek Leas-
ing company, of which D. w. Price, of
kellogg, is manager, which has a
lease on the lower ground of the Yam
kee Boy on the opposite side of the
canyon. A carload of ore shipped last
week netted 2S5 ounces of silver per
ton, or a total of $3001.35 cents for the
car of SO tons. Another car has since
been shipped. The raise in which this
rich ore was encountered has been
completed through to the Shonts tun-
mel, the total distance between the
two levels being 4S7 feet. From the
point where the vein was cut the raise
has been in ore all the way, and it is
now proposed to extend the main
to the vein since the work
above has clearly indicated it's posi-
ton. A new compressor has been in
stalled and will be in operation as
soon as the electric power line is COM
pleted.
