JACK WAITE.
Company Resumes Shipments, Haul
inu Ore to Prichard.

The recent high water made trouble
on the Jack Waite wagon road, stop
ping ore shipments for a time. The
damages have now been repaired to
an extent that permits hauling and
shipments were resumed yesterday.
The high water. however carried out
a railroad bridge near the mouth of
Prichard creek. and until that is re-
paired trains can only go up as far as
Prichard station. This makes 1t ne
cessary to haul the ore to Prichard.
increasing the distance about three
miles and making the total wagon
haul from the mine about 10 miles. 1t
is expected that the railroad company
will soon have the bridge rebuilt, as
1t not only inconvenience the Jack
Waite, but deprives Murray and all
tributary territory of railroad service.

ADD TO HERCULES MILL
get IRON FOR SHELTER
ADDITION WILL PROVIDE MEANS
FOR RETREATMENT OF TAIL
lNGS TO RECOVER IRON

A LARGE ADDITION Is being
~ made to the Hercules mill, sit
uated just below this city, the
framework of which Is now
nearing completion From the meager
information obtainablc on the sub
ject, IL may be stated that the equip
ment to be installed in the addition
win include SO Franz tables, three
or four tube mills, additional crush
ing facilities and probably additional
of the addition is to improve the re-
covery particularly of the iron con-
tent of the ore, rather than to in
%crease the capacity of the mill, al
though it is likely that the latter will
also be accomplished to some extent.
1t Is stated that Hercules ore run
ming or per cent lead carries about
II or Is per cent iron, most Of which
Is lost in the tailngg AS this is an
element much needed at the Northport
smeter, it is understood that the plan
is to regrlnd the taillngs and that the
addition to the mill will provide the
means, together with flotation, to re-
cover practically all the iron that
now goes to waste.
Gets Iron from Bunker Hill.
Iron for the Northport smelter is
now obtained to large extent from
the Bunker Hill & Sullivan, being a
low grade lead product with high
percentage of iron. 1t is assumed
that this ore will Soon be required by
the Bunker Hill smelter, and there
fore the Northport plant must make
other arrangements for its supply. It
il believed that this explains the large
addition to the Hercules mill, that 1t
IL chiefly designed to recover supply
Of iron from the companys own ore
and thus place the Northport smelter
in a position Independent of other
sources of supply,
The present daily capacity of the
Hercules mill is about 1000 tons, the
company handling about Is or 10
ears of crude ore per1day.

PROGRESS OF DEMOCRACY.
Seective Draft Compared With Civil
War System.
(Kansas City star.)

| The methods of meeting war condi-
tons show a growth in the democratic
spirit of the country--or at least a
better appreciation of what the demo-
cratic spirit involves--in the half cen
fury that has elapsed since the Civil
war.
The selective draft was contrary to
the way we always had used for the
raising of armies. The only reason
why public sentiment swung to it so
strongly was because of the general
recognition of its democracy. People
felt that it was only just to make no
discrimination in the raising of an
army for a democracy, and that rich
and poor, patriots and selfish men
should be alike subject to call. The
adoption of this plan at the beginning
OF the war marked a clearer under
standing of what democracy involves
than We had at the beginning of the
Civil war.
When the draft was resorted to in
1852 1t was made undemocratic by
the provision that permitted drafted
man to furnish substitute. The
story Is told of the well to do man
who was arranging to hire a substitute
for his son. The substitute wanted
$1,000. Il am looking for private.

WASHINGTON ON TRAINING.
Father of His Country Believed in
Preparing for War.


General Washington was a firm be-
lever in a trained military service
and in preparedness for national de-
Tense. On February 9, 1776. few
months before the Declaration of In
dependence, he wrote: ITO expect the
same service from raw and undiscip-
lined recruits as from veteran soldiers
Is to expect what never did and per-
haps never will happen" In the 4th
year of the war; on Aug. 20, 1870, he
wrote: Had we formed permen-
ent army in the beginning =. we never
should have had to retreat with a
handful of men across the Delaware
in. 1916, trembling for the fate of Am
erica; :. we should not have been
the greatest part of the war inferior
to the enemy, indebted for our safety
to their inactivity, enduring frequent
ly. the modification of seeing inviting
opportunities to ruin them pass unim-
proved for want of force which the
country was completely able to afford
ard of seeing the country ravaged, our
towns burnt. the inhabitants plumber

EAGAN COPPER.
Property Near Adair Win Resume
About the First of June.


Work will begin on the Eagan Cop
per soon after the first of June, ac-
cording to announcement made by L.
l.. Brainard. secretary of the company
this week The property is situated
Just west of the Richmond and pre-
'sumably on the same vein, and about
IA mile and half from Adair. The
group has been held by Thomas Eagan.
a well known pioneer prospector of
the district, and he Is still the prin-
cipal owner A company was organ
lied to develop the property last year,
made up chiefly by employees of the
O.-W r. & n. company residing in
this city, Quite a large amount of
the stock has been sold and the COM
pany is reported in good financial po-
sition to take up the development of
the property. A good showing of cop
per ore has been disclosed in the up
per tunnel and two shoots have been
developed In the lower. The face of
this tunnel is still in ore, being most
ly chalcoprrite and accompanied by
the oxidized copper ore that is charac-
teristic of the Richmond. The
ore also carries good gold value.
This tunnel will be extended and per-
haps other development work under
taken.

'RAY.JEFFERsON NINE TO
DRIVE TWO cR0SsCuTs
TAIN GOAT AND PRESIDENT
cLAlMS-FoUR MONTHS.

A CROSSCUT Is being run from
~ the Carlisle or north and south
vein of the Jefferson to
intersect the main vein in the
Mountain Goat claim, which joins the
Interstate Callahan on the west and
which is presumably an extension of
that famous vein. The vein has al
ready been explored by the Ray-Jef-
ferson at depth of 500 feet, expos
ing large amount of ore, and the
new crosscut will give an additional
depth of approximately 900 feet, or a
total Of about 1900 feet from the sur
face. 1t will require probably four
months to complete this tunnel, be-
tween 700 and 500 feet having been
run and leaving about 1000 feet to
go. 1t is learned that a survey of
Interstate-C Callahan vein was made by
the Ray-Jefferson people preliminary
to starting this crosscut
A crosscut is also being run by the
Ray Jefferson company to the Presi-
dent vein from the Carlisle tunnel in
an easterly direction, which will give
about 900 feet depth. About 500 feet
remains to be run. The President
claim joins the Amazon Manhattan,
owned by the Interstate Callahan, and
is on the same vein.
Mill Awaits Development.
Pending the completion of these ex-
tensive development operations the
Ray Jefferson mill, completed last fall
is idle. A large amount of ore is avail
able in the Carlisle which could be
utilized to run the mill part of the
time, but in view Of the large amount
of waste rock to be handled in driv-
ing the two crosscuts which must
come out through the Carlisle tunnel,
breaking "a feet per day, it was decid-
ed to shut down until the develop
ment work was completed, when the
mine will be In position to keep the
mill running full time, it's capacity
being 400 tons per day.
The annual meeting Of the Ray
Jefferson stockholders which was to
have been held last Tuesday, was post
poned until next Tuesday on account
Of the failure of several directors to
arrive.

Sinking on Ore from the 800 Level
East Of Shaft.

1t was learned this week that after
drifting east several hundred feet
from the shaft on the 500 level, dis
closing much lead and zinc ore, the
Sunset company is now sinking a
winze on the vein to further explore
the ore shoot. To what depth 1t is
proposed to go or the plans for further
work is not known. 1t is understood
that very satisfactory showings of ore
have been made on levels which have
been opened at intervals OF 200 feet
from the surface. The property is
owned by Senator w. A. Clark, Of
Montana, who intended to visit the
mine this spring. The senator is now
confined in his palatial New York
home with fractured leg, the result
of an automobile accident 1t is an
nounced that he will come west as
soon as he is able to travel, which Is

TARBOX TO HAVE MILL
SINK SHAFT 800 LEVEL
BIG ORE SHOOT DEVELOPED ON
GOODWILL BUILD FLUME TO
UTILIZE WATER POWER.

n kANAGER RICHARD DAXON
announced this week that ar
rangeinents have been made to
sink the TarboX shaft 200 feet
from the 600 level. The work will be
handled by a small hoist on the 600.
The. splendid showing of ore that has
been developed on this level leaves no
doubt that the showing on the 500 will
be equally as good and strong indica-
lions are that it will be larger and bet
ter. This has been the rule with the
Tarbox as depth has been gained. By
the time the 500 is reached and cross
cutting starts to the ore the plan Is
to have the construction of a mill I'M
der way. Men are now engaged in
getting. out timber which will be cut

able that the number thus engaged
will be increased until between 40 and
80 will be employed during the sum-
mer. The company owns a splendid
water right, capable of running the
mill and supplying water for all other
purposes A flume a mile long will
give a head of 500 feet The work of
building the flume win proceed as
rapidly as possible.
Big Ore Shoot on 600.
The ore shoot on the 600 level has
been proved for a distance of $50 feet
by drifts east and west and ii Is be-
lieved that this will average so feet
wide. The ore is a combination of
lead and zinc of good milling grade
and there are no difficulties in the way
of separating the metals. Both drifts
are being extended and are still in
ore, the showing in the west drift be-
ing particularly good. Here the
ground is solid and undisturbed and
the drift is gaining depth rapidly. The
east drift passes under the creek and
the ground is more broken, but there

DOUGLAS. ORE SHIPPED
DURING MONTH OF APRIL
BAD ROADS REDUCE TONNAGE
WAIT FOR NEWS OF PINE
CREEK RAILROAD.

~ ECRETARY WYMAN of the
Douglas Mining company has
II received u statement from the
Anaconda Copper Mining COM
pany giving the detail of ore ship
ments from the Douglas during the
month of April, and stating that the
royalty had been deposited in the
First National bank. Bad condition
shipments and the showing is much
better than was anticipates by the
Douglas owners. Fourteen carloads
were shipped dhring the month, ag-
gregating 1,14S795 dry pounds, or
514.3975 tons. Under the terms :, OF
the lease the Douglas company re-
ceives SO per ton on all ore shipped,
which amounted to $1723.19. The
statement shows that no ore was ship
ped after April 20, the road at that
time evidently becoming impossible
for heavy loads. The shipments this
month will doubtless be less than last,
for the high water carried out bridge
or two on Pine creek and otherwise
badly damaged the road, which was
already about as bad as it could be
and still be recognized as road. De-
velopment work has been going on
steadily in the mine and 1t is expected
that when shipments begin again they
will go forward more rapidly than
ever
No Railroad News.

question of building a branch up Pine
While no intimation has been received
as to the conclusions reached by Mr..
Burch, the utmost confidence is felt
that his report is fair and complete
from the standpoint of railroad ton
mage, and to those who are familiar
with the mining situation in that Sec
ton this means that it will fully JUS
tify the construction of the branch. 1t
is possible, however, that the de-
mands to be made on the railroads on
account of the war may be used as an
excuse for further delaying the con-
struction, and in that event the Stew
art company will build a tramway
from the Nabob to the Government
gulch branch, and in this it may be
Joined by other companies. The time
has arrived when Pine creek must
have relief from the present insuffer-
able conditions, and If the O.-W. r. &
N. company will not provide it, then
some other means must be adopted.
The Stewart company has found
way, which would also have the ad-
vantage of securing railroad competi-
ton.
