That was a highly interesting and
significant meeting of the democratic
state committee at Boise last Monday,
and incidentally 1t afforded a striking
illustration of the character of news
that is being handed out to the people
of this district by the Day daily. In
bold headlines the Press-Times Tues
day morning announced that Elder
Fails ito Receive Committees Ap-
prevail" following which was a spe-
cial from Boise purporting to give the
proceedings of the meeting of the COM
mittee. For the information of those
and outs of democratic politics in Ida
ho, it should be stated that Jerome J..
Day, one of the owners of the Press
Times, is a candidate for national com
mitteeman for Idaho, position now
held by r. H. Elder, of Occur d'Alene,
and who is candidate for reelection,
Harry L. Day, another owner of the
Press Times, is state committeeman
from Shoshone county and was pres
ent at the meeting of the committee
and in order to give the proper color
to the report Of the meeting for Coeur
d'Alene consumption, the editor of the
Press Times was also there, and of
course framed up the Boise special in
the interest Of Jerome Days candidacy.
The report published in the Day
daily was a positive and intentional
of the facts. The ques-
tion of indorsing Mr.. Elder or Mr..
Day for national committeeman was
not submitted to committee directly,
tional committeeman will be selected
by the party in the various counties
But the question of Endorsement was
clearly an issue when it came to pass
ing upon the credentials of commit
teeman from Idaho county. On the
same day that the Press Times pub
ceedings of the committee, the Spo-
kesman- Review published an account
of the proceedings also from its Boise
from which the follow
ing extract is taken, which shows the
attitude of the committee toward the
two candidates for national commit
teeman:
''The first open fight before the COM
mittee broke over the recognition of
L. A. Wisener or A. w. Talkington of
Grangeville as committeeman from
Idaho county. Talkington was elected
by the county committee March 1 to
succeed Wisener, who for the last two
years has been committeeman. 1t
was held Wisener never resigned
Wisener is a supporter of Elder Talk
ington was instructed for Day. The
Elder committeeman seated Wisener
by vote of 26 to TO-"

GRAFTON. All of this machinery was
formerly used by the Caledonia COM
pany and is practically as good as
new. The equipment is now being
moved to the East Caledonia
Work is now in progress on the East
Caledonia in accordance with the re-
concentrations of Rush j. White, who
recently made thorough inspection
Of the property and who has been
placed in complete charge of it's oper-
ations. His recommendation was to
continue drifting on the 200-foot level,
following the ore wherever exposed,
and also doing some prosecuting to
learn more definitely the structure of
the ground with the view to locating
the most favorable places to look for
commercial ore. Subsequent develop
ment may depend on the result of the
work here outlined. Mr.. White was for
many years chief engineer of the Fed
eral company, and his familiarity with
Occur d'Alene mines inspires great
confidence that he will make a success
of his task to make q mine of the
East Caledonia.

The Hypotheek company has its own
sawmill near the mine which will turn
out all lumber for the concentration
and hoist. A tramway has just been
completed from the sawmill to the
mine to facilitate the delivery of the
lumber
1t has been rumored that the COM
pany was preparing to sink the shaft
to another level and that an assess
ment would be levied to take care of
the expense of sinking and other mine
development. This report is emphat-
ically denied by Otto A. Olsson, assist
ant general manager. The shaft with
not be exteeded, and the company has
money available to continue develop
ment of the mine and to complete the
mill and install the new hoist. There
will be no assessment levied, and with
the known ore in sight the completion
of the mill is expected to place the
property on self-supporting basis. In
the meantime exploration on the 100
level is proceeding with satisfactory
results.

THE oScEoLA COMPANY.
Aggressive Operations Will Begin a
Soon as Snow Permits,

Officers of the Osceola Mining COM
pany state that the construction of
new buildings at the company's prop
erty on the west fork of Placer creek
will begin just as soon as the snow
will permit delivery of material. The
old building was burned by the forest
fire in 1910. A compressor having ca
pacity to run five drills will be in
stalled at the earliest possible date
and arrangements have been made to
extend the electric power line of the
Washington Water Power company to
the property. 1t Is expected that all
these preliminary arrangements will
be completed in record time as soon
as conditions permit taking up the
work, when prosecuting will begin to
reach the great ledge which shows up
so strong on the surface and seems to
be a continuation of the famous Bun
ller Hill e Sullivan vein, there being q
marked similarity in the geological
structure. The discovery of the Pla-
Ger creek extension of the Wardner
mineral belt was made some 80 years
ago and is credited to Charles f.
Ruddy, vice president and manager of
the Osceola company.

5000 feet from the site Of the COM
pany's mill and will be the main work.
ing tunnel 1t will run straight into
the mountain and will eventually cut
the Jefferson and other veins
known to traverse the property. The
strike was in the Carlisle, a vein that
runs in a northerly and southerly di-
rection and intersects the Day-Jeffer
son, which has the usual easterly and
westerly course. The vein where en-
countered shows IA feet of first class
milling ore with much high grade that
can be recovered on the sorting belt,
The ore is both lead and zinc, with
perhaps preponderance of the latter.
The continuation of this tunnel will
attain depth on Jefferson
ground of nearly or quite 1000 feet,
giving a tremendous ore reserve ex-
tending from the tunnel level to the
surface.

HoD the Days Went Down to Defeat
In the Democratic State Committee

The Spokesman Review report of
the democratic committee meeting
contains other interesting particulars
that were not covered in the Day daily
account, but which are nevertheless
interesting reading to local readers. 1t
appears that the political methods of
the Days are quite as well understood
at Boise as they are here, and it must
have been a severe shock to Harry L..
who had not recovered from the bump
he had received in his fall from the
head of the Federal, to be made the
target for an attack at the council
board of the party in which his voice
had been so potent. Here Is the Spo-
kane papers account of the manner in
which John F, Nugent ventilated the
Days and their political methods
"A bitter attack was made on Sem
ator Jerome ]. Day by John F. Nu-
gent, former state committeeman, who
charged that the only object of Day
supporters to secure a preferential
primary was because of the certainty
of their electing Senator Day through
financial support and voting the men
who worked in the mines and with the
lumber companies, irrespective of par
ty. He also charged that they were
not staunch supporters of President
Wilson,"

Survey of Pine Creek Railroad Will Be
Made At Once-Right of Way Secured

The promoters of the Pine creek
railroad deny that the O.-W. r. & N,
the Milwaukee or any other railroad
company is back of the enterprise.
The field to be served by the proposed
railroad is much larger that most peo-
pie imagine, and the business now ac-
tually in sight is sufficient to justify
the construction of the road independ-
ent of large transportation companies.
There will unquestionably be a rapid
increase in the ore tonnage, while the
possibility of the timber resources are
very great. Much of the timber, par
ticularly on the west fork, can not be
moved without a railroad, and 1t is
probable that with transportation as
sured, saw and shingle mills will turn
out the products on the ground rather

In Spokane yesterday R. II. Elder
gave his version of the meeting of the
Day for committeeman, and expressed
great confidence that he would win.
Day was bitterly denounced for his
telegram to Senator Jones, of Wash
ington, approving the attitude of the
senator as expressed in his resolution
denying passports to Americans tray
cling on armed belligerent ships Here
Is Mr.. Days message to Senator
Jones:
Personally l consider Germany JUS
titled in sinking armed belligerent ves-
sells of whatever description without
warning. In the inevitable conflict
with Japan and behind her England
and her allies, are we not paralyzing
the action of our submarine defense?"
The sentiment here expressed by
Mr.. Day was denounced in most vigor-
Gus terms and Mr.. Elder says it con-
tributed to the overwhelming defeat
of the Day forces in the committee, a
fact that is very much to the credit of
the democratic organization in Idaho
The sentiment is little short of trea
son, and 1t is so monstrous and inhu-
man that even the German govern
ment has now practically abandoned
it as contrary to international law
recognized by all civilized nations

than haul the logs to distant mills
Practical sawmill men claim that tim
Der products can be turned out on Pine
creek cheaper than at the mills on the
river and lake when railroad facilities
are provided.
Merriam & Merriam, engineers of
this city have been engaged to make
the survey for the Pine creek railroad,
and will begin the work just as soon
as weather conditions will permit.
Right of way privileges have been
secured over most of the distance and
the necessary financial backing has
been secured which insures the con-
struction of the road at the earliest
possible date, according to w. H. Her
rick who Is the most active in pushing
the enterprise.

|NTERMOUNTA|N MINE
SOON IN OPERATION
ORE SHOOT OPENED ON TWO
LEVELS AND MINE BEING
UNWATERED.

Oscar Nordquist, manager of the In
termountain Mining company, was a
passenger on the only train on the
Northern Pacific that has arrived from
the east during the last two months.
He took the train at Iron Mountain,
having come from the Intermountain
mine, where he had been making pre-
paration for a resumption. Everything
is in readiness to start the mill, and it
was expected operations would begin
on March 1, but weather conditions
were such that it was found impracti-
cal. The company has a good water
power to run both compressor and
mill, but there is generally a shortage
of water during few months in the
year. Arrangements have been made
with the Lacasse placer company,
which is carrying on extensive opera
tions about two miles above the Inter-
mountain, for electric power, and con-
nection will be made this spring in
time to utilize the power during the
dry season.
Condition of the Mine.
A few men have been employed in
the. mine during the winter working
in the 200 and 400 levels. These have
been retimbered where necessary and
new tracks laid, placing them in good
shape for mining. On the 200 the ore
shoot has been opened for $50 feet and
on the 400 the shoot has been explored
300 feet The stations at both levels
have also been retimbered and the
shaft and levels down to the 400 are
in first class condition.
The mine is now being unwatered
down to the 700, the lowest level. 1t
is expected that this will be accomp-
lished by March 90, and by that time
the mine and mill will be in full oper-
alton.
Mr.. Nordquist states that old timers
pronounce this the most severe winter
they have ever known in that section.
The mercury stood at 26 below zero
for days, and the snow on the summit
at the head Of Cedar creek is 20 feet
deep and at Lacasse's camp it is 12
feet deep.

Caledonia.
Caledonia came through with the
regular cent dividend this month,
with prospect of doing better with
continued advance in silver, lead and
copper, for this remarkable mine is a
producer of all three The mine is re-
ported in excellent condition. The to-
tai payroll is from 80 to 35 men, and
no mine in the country earns such pro-
fits with so small a force.

LITTLE P|TTsBURG IS
IN A LEGAL TANGLE
FAILURE TO MAKE BOND PAY
MENT LEADS TO lNJUNC-
TIoN PROCEEDINGS.

Last Saturday an order was issued
by Judge Woods at the instance of
Gus A. Smith and Mrs. Grace M. Hall,
directed against ]. D. Beebe and Wat
son Beebe and the Colonial Mining
company, temporarily restraining them
from operating the Little Pittsburg
mine on Pine creek, and designating
Friday, March 10, as the time for fur
ther hearing on the question of max
ing the temporary injunction perman-
ent. The Little Pittsburg property
was taken under bond six months ago
by ]. d. Beebe and Watson Beebe, who
organized the Colonial Mining COM
pany, and inaugurated vigorous
campaign of development. The amount
of the bond was $4,000, $4,000 to be
paid in six months, $4,000 in IS
months and the balance, $55,000, at
the end of two years. The first pay
ment of $4,000 fell due last Friday,
March 8, and upon the failure of the
Beebes and the Colonial Mining COM
pany to meet it, the action here stated
was taken by the owners to recover
possession of the property and annul
the bond.
Talk of Settlement.
In addition to the $4,000 payment,
if is stated that the Colonial Mining
company owes an aggregate of prob
ably $4,000 to employees for labor, to
local merchants for uspplies of various
kinds and to outside machinery deal
ers. Many reports have been circulat-
ed indicating that an agreement would
be reached which would protect the
interests of all parties concerned, and
which would place the company under
new management and with strong fin
ancial support. 1t is stated that such
a proposition is under consideration
today, but no one authorized to speak
would be quoted.
The limited development of the Lit
tie Pittsburg has disclosed large
body of zinc ore, and also more or less
lead. 1t has all the earmarks of a
great mine and it is hoped that the
tangle in its affairs will soon be
Strengthened out satisfactorily to both
parties to the controversy, making
possible an early resumption.

If he has good fortune, he will call
first at Herschel Island, where he
may receive word from Stefansson,
If he does not get instructions there,
he will proceed north to Banks Land,
making stops at points agreed upon
last year, where Stefansson may have
letters or men waiting for Lane. 1t
may be that the explorers will choose
to return to Nome in their own boats,

the vessels probably will be out of re-

If all goes well, the explorers should
arrive in Nome soon after the middle

artist who, besides being ranked by
the critics as one of the great bari

that an artist should cultivate a bust

have manager, but one should not
stay at home and wait to be told
where to go and sing; things do not
happen that way. A singer should
go after business himself. Work
