IDAHO COPPER MINING
GROWING IMPORTANCE
VALUE OF MINING TO STATE is
RAPIDLY RECEIVING
RECOGNITION.
(Lewiston Tribune)

Holland" one of the best informed
writer's In this country ON industrial
matters, says in an article in the Wall
Street Journal that, in anticipation of
a larger demand for copper than the
world has ever known upon the COM
ing of peace, capitalists are ransack-
ing the world for copper bearing ores.
Deposits previously regarded as not
worthy of consideration are coming to
enjoy the esteem of monied interests.
To quote a paragraph of his article:
"One of these who is to be ranked
with the first six leaders in the cop
per industry said a day or two ago
that men interested in copper produce
ton are now looking the world over
with the intent to secure copper prop
critics, They are doing this because
of the belief that, no matter how
great the immediate failing off in the
demand for copper after the war Is
ended may be, there will be a main
tanned and steadily increased demand
for copper for domestic industries,
and also to meet the needs of the ma
tons now devastated by war, for they
will require ample raw material in
rebuilding their factories and their in
dustrial plants"
Copper on Snake River.
There is copper in Idaho 1t Is
found in large quantities in the Seven
Devils region, on Salmon river in
Idaho county, and throughout the
mineral zone of the state. A most in
teresting deposit is that of the Imna-
ha section on Snake river, on the Ore
gon side on which considerable work

deems to be for the best interests of
the said city, (taking into considera-
ton the quality of the pavements and
the respective bids) for paving said
portions of said streets and alleys
with such pavement, and will award
the contract TO the lowest and best
responsible bidder for the kind of
pavement selected, provided, however
the City of Wallace reserves the right
to reject any and all bids and accept
any bid which it deems to be for the
best interests of the City.
Said improvement shall be paid for
in special improvement bonds, gen.
eral municipal bonds, or in cash at
the option Of the City of Wallace.
Bonds to be taken at par.

City Council of the City of Wallace.

Refined Copper.

The total production of new refined
copper in 1915 was 1,634,000,0 0C
pounds, an increase of 100000
pounds from the output in 1914.
In addition to the secondary mater
ial treated by the regular refining
companies, plants that treated second
airy material exclusively produced a
total of about 1892, 100000 pounds of
copper as copper and in brass and
other alloys of copper, making a to-
tai production OF 392,274,000 pounds
from secondary sources. OF this to-
tai at least 15O,000,O00 pounds was
produced by remelting clean scrap
produced in the process of manufact-
ure of copper and brass articles.
If the output of plants treating pure
ly secondary material is added to the
production of the regular refining
companies, the contribution from the
plants in the United States to the
worlds supply of copper for 1915 is
found to be 2,026,000,0O0 pounds.
In addition to the output of metal
lie copper the regular refining COM
panies produced bluestone with a cop
per content of 1881 900 pounds.

was done by Lewiston operators a
few years ago. II is right to say that
neither the Seven Devils nor the Inn
naha workings gave evidence of being
commercial properties at the earlier
period, when copper was worth around
II cents, but now that the metal Is
worth from % to 30 cents, with the
prospect of going higher rather than
lower, there is no reason why these
deposits should not receive new and
favorable attention. In other words,
the copper mining industry may be on
the eve of undergoing the same change
the gold mining industry experienced.
In bonanza days both quartz and pla-
Ger were abandoned or ignored be-
cause of low grade that afterwards
were phenomenally profitable, not on
ly because of the increased demand
for the metal but because of econom-
ical methods of extracting the pro-
duct
Outlook for Copper and Silver.
Copper seems about to undergo the
same transformation. Silver also is
steadily rising in value and no doubt
various old and new Idaho mines can
be worked at good profit as a result
of the requirements and opportunities
of the war. The belllgerent countries
will be using enormous quantities of
the white metal for currency pur-
poses when reconstruction and peace
full activity are resumed in Europe,
besides the demand coming for the
arts and wares and In ministering to
the spirit of extravaganza, display and
vanity that the return of peace will
certainly introduce,
While mining will probably never
reassert the primacy it once enjoyed
in Idaho, there Is reason to believe
that the states great metallic wealth
offers a field for clean and remunera-
tive exploitation that will receive
substantial consideration before we
are very much older

Consumption.

The apparent consumption of refin-
ed new copper in the United States In
1915 was about 1,043 900 900 pounds. Ii
to the 1,043,461,9S2 pounds of new re-
fined copper is added the 1892, 274000
pounds of secondary copper and cop
per in alloys produced during the
year. it is found that a total of about
| 1,435, 100000 pounds of new and old
copper was available for domestic
consumption.
A more comprehensive report on
the copper industry In 1915 is in pre-
paration and will later be published
by the geological survey as a part of q
general review of the industries of
gold silver, lead, zinc and copper The
preliminary statement here presented
is brought out in advance of the full
er report in answer to a demand for
official figures at the earliest possible
date.
The figures of secondary copper
presented here are estimates by Mr.. j.
P. Dunlop and are subject to revision
when complete returns have been
compiled.
The figures presented here are smell
ter and refinery figures and represent
the actual recovery, in terms of blister
and refined conner from materials
treated in 1915. These figures may
not exactly correspond with those
showing the mine production during
the same period, although the varia-
ton should not be great The smell
ter production and the mine produc-
ton, representing as they do different
steps in the process of producing cop
per, should not be confused.
The statistics here given have not
been available at an earlier date, al
though estimates of the smelter and
refinery production were made Janu-
airy 6, 1916. So far as known at pres.
ent, no revision of these statistics will
be necessary, but any slight reappor-
tonment that final analysis of the
figures may require will be made in
the complete report.
Copies of the complete report may
be obtained as soon as published by
addressing a request to the director
of the geological survey.

MEETINGS.
BRITISH MAKE
NEW DEMANDS
Must Know Names of the
Firms and Persons for
Whom Bankers Act.

Great Britain, in her effort to pre-
vent trading with enemy" subjects
and with persons having enemy" af
citations. has not stopped with the
publication of the blacklist Of Ameri-
can business concerns. 1t was learned
yesterday that within the last fortnight
the leading New York banking institu-
tons have received word from their
London bank correspondents that
henceforth the names of all individuals
or firms for whom the banks are act
ing in making sterling remittances to
London must be made known. This has
been done at the order of the British
Treasury. 1t means that all dealings
in sterling exchange in this market
have come under the surveillance Of
the British government
The purpose of the new order, &C
cording TO bankers here. is to prevent
any Of the blacklisted firms from doing
business indirectly with London,
through their connections with Ameri-
can banks not under the ban. During
the long period Of months when the
"unwritten" blacklist was in force it
was not particularly difficult for black
listed firms TO transact their London
business through the medium of New
York banks. This has also been done
in small way since the publication Of
the blacklist. but the new order is ex
peeted 10 shut these firms completely
off from business relations with Lon
don. Bankers talked Of the new order
Yesterday in matter OF course way.
They seemed 70 think it natural de-
velopment.
France, il seems. is copying out OF
the British book. French bankers, too,
are working TO hinder the operations Of
enemy subjects here as well as else
where. New York bankers in several
instances have, during the last week,
been asked 70 pledge their personal
word Of honor that certain important
transactions negotiated by them for
the account OF the French would in no
way benefit interests friendly to the
German cause.

American export trade in China has
been very materially benefited within
the past few months by the unusual
rise i'm rates for silver exchange,
which have reached the highest mark
recorded within the past thirty years.
China's currency is one Of the few
world currencies remaining on the
silver basis The notable increase in
the market price OF silver now more
than 80 per cent above last years
average has increased China's buying
power by just that much and has
resulted in the placing OF 4 series Of
large buying orders. IN welcome con
trsst to the depression existing last

"Our HonG Kong Office reports that
this rise In silver exchange has ac-
celebrated Chinese import trade From
the American export viewpoint, the
benefit from increased activity in buy
ing has outweghed the slackness in
the current sales Of Chinese products,
due more particularly to the disturbed
political conditions and the consequent
difficulties in moving and paying for
goods AZ interior points. As lorg as

II is always possible that the public

The above rates express the cost of
foreign money in terms of the Amer
lean dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling for s4.75 lilo; the intrinsic
parity is s4S6ss per pound. Thus, you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars are at premium.
which is owing to the fact that in Eng

greater than the demand in this coun-
try for pounds with which to settle
