STEWART OFFICERS
ARE REELECTED
ANNUAL MEETING OF COMPANY
is HELD AT KELLOGG
TUESDAY.

Stockholders of the Stewart Mining
company, by person or proxy, were in
annual session Tuesday afternoon at
the offices of the company in Kellogg.
Complete harmony marked the meet
ing, the confidence of the stockholders
in the old board of directors being re-
Elected in the election of the entire
board for another year. Those chosen
were Chas. w. Saacke of New York;
Chas. Lark, of New York; Hiram c..
Todd, of Saratoga, N. Y; Nash Rock
wood, of New York, and William
Beaudry of Kellogg.
The recent acquisition of the Lone
Mountain mine, near Elko, New, was
reported by the directors and state
ments made that development work
would be carried along on an extern
sive scale at this property.
The directors are to meet at later
date when officers will be named, 1t
being presumed that the officers will
remain as they now are with Hiram
Todd, president; Chas Lark, secre-
tary; C. T. Williams, treasurer, and
William Beaudry manager
The Stewart mine is still producing
some ore but is said to have practic-
ally reached it's limit. That the com
pany does not intend to leave the
Coeur d'Alene district is evidenced ir
the activities manifested in severa
properties thought to be under optior
to the Stewart and also from the ex'
animation of other properties by en-.
gineers in the employ of the company
