Patriotic Fourth of
July in Wallace

Wallace will have a Fourth of
July celebration that will in all
respects be worthy of the mo-
mentous event it commentaries.
The people will not be asked to
subscribe a fund for their amuse-
ment and entertainment. In
stead they will be invited to
turn out and be a part of a great
patriotic demonstration, the main
features of which will be a street
parade, raising the flag at the
park, reading the Declaration of
Independence, patriotic addresses
and musical features of a. patri-
otic order The committee hav-
ing charge of the arrangements
very properly decided that it
would not be harmony with the
spirit of the occasion this year to
ask the people to subscribe a
large fund for prizes in sporting
contests, since they are being
called upon to make Liberal sub
scriptions for Liberty Loan
bonds, Red Cross and other war
purposes. The committee will
ask all secret society organiZa-
tions to turn out in the parade,
just as they did on Memorial day,
and automobile owners will be
asked to furnish cars to carry
the children. 1t is expected sciti-
zens generally will cooperate in
making this the greatest patri-
otic demonstration, one that will
make every man better citizen
and better prepared to meet the
demands that will be made upon
him while the country is at war.

creek is in O.-W. r. & N. territory
and the miners are practically depen-
dent upon that company for relief.
While there Is no binding agreement
with the railroad company, there is a
moral obligation upon it to provide
transportation facilities to those who
are dependent upon it when the busi-
ness to be handled justifies the
cost and operation of the proposed
line. This is believed to be the sit
uation on Pine creek, and if this is
confirmed by the Investigations of the
company's own engineer justice de-
mands that the construction of the
line be taken up without further delay
Stewart Waits for Decision.
The Stewart Mining company, which
has recently acquired the Nabob and
Denver groups, is ready to begin the
construction of a mill and is delayed
in carrying out it's plans by the uncer-
tainty of the railroad situation. If the
railroad is to be built this season,
the mill will be built at the Nabob on
there is to be no railroad this year,
then the company will be forced to
the heavy expense of constructing an
aerial tramway and build it's. mill on
Government gulch. Manager Beaudry
is reported to have now gone to con-
fer with railroad officials in the hope
of getting definite answer from them
as to their plans, and upon their
decision depends the plans of the
Stewart company. Certainly the Ste
wart and other shipping companies on
Pine creek are entitled to know what
they may expect. for the season is
now far advanced and further de-
lay will entail additional losses.
Shipping Under Difficulties.
The deplorable condition of the wa
gon road has forced the Constitution
to suspend shipments altogether. The
Douglas is reported still shipping, but
ii is stated that four horse teams are
able to haul not more than 2R tons
of ore at load. The same situa-
tion prevails with the Highland Sur
prise. The mill is turning out con-
centrates up to capacity, but the pro-
duct is delivered at the railroad with
the greatest difficulty.
Under all these circumstances, the
railroad company should announce it's
plans without further delay.

LUCKY SWEDE.

Harry Pearson, manager of the
Lucky Swede Gold & Copper Mining
company was in the city the first of
the week. He reports satisfactory
progress in driving the long crosscut
which is expected to disclose body of
commercial ore when the ledge Is
reached. The property of the COM
pany is located on the st. Joe, about
two miles from the Milwaukee rail-
road, and a short distance west of the
Richmond and in the same mineral
belt. That section of the district is
attracting much attention. and the
prediction is made that it will prove a
great copper producing district Mr..
Pearson returned to the property,
where he will spend a few days and
then go to Minnesota, where there are
many stockholders in the Lucky Swede
to whom he will report progress of de-
velopment.

Contract Completed and New One to
be Let-Road Blocked.
The contract to drive 100 feet on the
Boss Zinc, on Two Mile, was complet-
ed a few days ago and the company
will let another contract soon for an
other 100 feet. Work has been suspen-
ded on account of the road being clos
ed at the mouth of Two Mile by a
great deposit of tailings that came
down when the dam broke few weeks
ago. The river channel is full of tall
ings and the water of the river Is
spread over the flat for a width of 500
or 600 feet The bridge is covered
with tailings and is surrounded by
water. Up to date the commissioners
have made no move toward opening
the road, with the result that the Boss
Zinc people and others engaged In
mining or residing on Two Mile are
forced to pack their supplies in or &c
without them.
The Boss Zinc tunnel has been ad-
vanced 220 feet and the vein Is report
ed most encouraging. The face oi

MOUNTAIN VIEW.

The Mountain View Mining COM
rany, under the management Of w. E.
Millaer, Of Burke, is planning to build
a mill on its property this summer.
The property is located on Trout creek,
Montana. about II miles from the Nor
thern Pacific railroad, with which It is
connected by good wagon road. 1t Is
stated that large body Of lead ore
has been opened up and that ship
ments of crude ore will begin at once

as the actual development of pros
pect is concerned. This work con-
tributes in no wise to the great prob
lem which the nation now has before
it and there is great need for the man
power of the country to be applied to
constructive enterprises necessary to
prepare the United States for war,
and help our allies to victory.
"The amount of actual good accom-
plished by assessment work Is prac-
tically nil. 1t is merely plan to as
sure the government of the earnest in
tentlons of the locator to do something
with the property he is holding. Oc-
casionally the work done Is Of value,
kare merely expended to maintain the
equity.
THE 500 that Is presumed to be
spent on claim Is, one might say,
work or taxation Is required to prevent
land being held idle indefinitely. The
suggestion was made some time ago
that the assessment obligations could
better be met by depositng with the
land office the annual requirement of
800, and when this sum reached a
figure which would permit of some
really important development, that it
then be applied to the property and
thus accomplish some work Of value.
while the present perfunctory as
sessment work requires certain
number of men, we are not of the
opinion that this work will constitute
a great drain on the man power of the
country. Yet there is no reason why
even this small proposition should be
wasted. Canada has already released
its soldiers from assessment obliga-
tions and our congress Is considering
doing the same. For others who are
not able to offer their services to the
country at the 'front.' plan might be
arranged of depositing the 500 assess
ment with the land office during the
duration of the war or, as has been
suggested, until such funds accumu-
late sufficiently to permit some inn
portant development work on the
claims in question"

"HE FEDERAL MINING d
Smelling company has sub
scribed for Liberty Loan bonds
to the amount of 100000 to be
credited to Shoshone county. This
announcement was made at the Wal
lace office of the company today. In
addition to this large subscription, the
Federal is also taking an active in
terest in securing subscriptions among
its large number of employees in the
mines throughout the district. 1t Is
impossible at this time to give an es-
innate of the amount that will be re-
ceived from this source, but there Is
no doubt that it will be large. This
heavy subscription by the Federal, and
the efforts being made by other large
industrial and business concerns
throughout the district, probably fair
ly represents the situation in all parts
OF the country. and 1t Is now believed
that the closing day of subscriptions
will find the $4,000 900 900 issue large
ly over subscribed. The Boy Scouts
have been very active this week and
their efforts will make substantial
addition to the bonds taken in Sho-
shone county.

SUDDEN ADVANCE in Chi
~ cago-Boston stock during the
N past week has attracted much
attention to that property,
which is located on Lake gulch a mile
and half FROM this city, and which
is being developed under option to the
Days. Direct and authentic informa-
ton regarding Day controlled enter
prises is seldom obtainable so far as
the public is concerned, and as the
mission of the Miner is to serve the
public in the matter of mining news,
it has made persistent efforts to learn
what has happened, at the Chicago
Boston to cause this sudden upward
turn In the price of the stock. In this
it has been reasonably successful and
will give it's readers the benefit of such
information as has been obtained Be-
fore the Chicago Boston passed into
the hands Of the Days the former
management had developed a splendid
showing of ore in two parallel VEINS
one gray copper rich in silver and the
other one lead. The original dis
covery was on the gray copper many
years ago while the lead deposit was
discovered some three years ago
through a land slide caused by a
break in a flume crossing the ground
The big ledge disclosed by the slide
induced the management to run
crosscut from the gray copper tunnel,
which was rewarded by cutting
shoot of good milling ore IA feet wide.
The ledge was then located on the
surface at point just high enough
to allow for dump and the ore shoot
was explored for 800 feet. Two cross
cuts proved it to be IA feet wide, all
good mill feed with frequent streaks
of high grade.
Sink Shaft from Surface.
This in brief was the showing on
the Chicago Boston when the property
was taken over by the Days a few
months ago. They proceeded to sink
a shaft not far from the mouth of the
tunnel with the expectation that the
vein would be cut on it's dip in about
100 feet. But at 100 feet the vein had
not been encountered, and drift was
started to the ore under he tunnel. At
a point probably under the portal of
the tunnel the vein was crosscut,
showing the ore shoot to be fully as
wide as above and of better grade.
According to information received this
week, the shoot has now been explored
by drifting about 100 feet with the
same fine ore showing. The piles of
milling ore and first class on the dump
tell the story Everything indicates
that the Chicago Boston is another big
mine in the making.
In the meantime a crosscut from
the lower tunnel Is being run to the
gray copper vein. and judged by the
rich ore that has been found in the
upper tunnels. an important strike of
rich ore may be expected when it is
reached

AM BERGRiS.
Report That Stringers Of Ore Are Now
Being Found in Crosscut.

While no definite information is OBJ
tainable, it is reported from apparent
ly reliable sources that the crosscut
that is being run from No tunnel of
the Hercules has recently struck some
strngers Of ore. How far remains to
be run to reach the vein is not knswn,
but 1t is believed that not more than
$50 or 200 feet remains. The shaft
sunk from the surface has exposed
fine body of high grade lead-silver
ore. which is said to have been drift
ed upon about 100 feet. 1t is estim-
ated that the crosscut will cut the vein
at a depth of nearly 1000 feet below
the shaft level Arrangements have
been made with the Hercules company
to work the Ambergris, through No. A.
the ore to be conveyed to the railroad
by means of the aerial tramway for
merly used by the Hercules and which
is still in working order.

~ me CREEK mine operators are
growing restless waiting for a
decision from the O.-W. r. &
n. company with reference to
the construction of a branch railroad
up Pine creek 1t has now been a
month or more since the report of AL
bert Burch was filed with the COM
pany. He was sent to Pine creek by
the railroad company for the purpose
of determining the amount of actual
and prospective tonnage in sight.
The Pine Creek Mines association had
presented showing of that kind to
the company, and impressed upon the
officers of the railroad company the
necessity for rail transportation as the
only means of relief to a section that
had long been handicapped through
the absence of transportation facili-
ties in keeping with it's Importance as
railroad company, probably still
haunted by memories of certain
branch up Beaver creek upon which
great expectations were slow of reali-
zation, was evidently not willing to
accept the showing Of tonnage made
by the Pine creek operators without
first having it verified by its own rep
resentative.
Mr.. Burch Makes investigation.
1t was at this time that the O.-W. r.
& N. company secured the services of
business for railroad on Pine creek.
No man better fitted to the task nor
more acceptable to the mining inter-
ests OF Pine creek could have been Sc
lected. He is not only mining en-
gineer of national standing, but he has
also gained by long experience an in
innate knowledge of Occur dAlene
ore deposits and his judgment of the
mineral resources of Pine creek, after
careful investigation such as he
made, must carry weight. This is said
without the slightest intimation of the
contents of Mr. Burch's report. The
Miner is firmly convinced that the
showing of tonnage abundantly justi
fies the construction of the Pine creek
railroad, and it has great confidence
that this opinion will find support in
the recommendation from Mr.. Burch.
1t is nevertheless realized that this will
not necessarily secure the road. The
war is taxing the operating capacity of
the railroads, and it Is possible that
the O.-W r. & N. company may find
this condition an excuse for postpon-
ing the construction.
Justice to Pine Creek.
But there is another view which
should receive due consideration from
the railroad company, and that is in
the nature of an obligation which the
company owes to the operators in that
section. A large amount of money has
been invested in Pine creek mines and
in their development and equipment
with mills and machinery. all with
the expectation that railroad transpor-
tation would be proveded to enable the
mining companies to gain reasonable
return on their large investments. Pine
