White Metal Properties of

A dispatch from Wallace says:

- NAoPo'Nh AAohi w diIdCc says.
Big creek mines are attracting muci1
attention just now and will continue to
be in the limelight SO long as silver
maintains it's high level. The future
of the white metal is most promising
according to all market reports and
writer's on mineral conditions. This
means that the high grade silver pro-
ducers on Big creek, though not large
mines, will yield handsome profit for
some time to come. Big creek Is not
a new section of the Occur d. Alenes.
Its merit as a field for silver was re-
cognized many years ago, but the white
metal was not in demand and conse-
quently the prospects were not devel-
oped. The steady rise in the price OF
silver brought about more extensive
exploration wor., on the promising
claims with the result that three pro
perties are making shipments of high
grade regularly.
