Administration ---VOte In Detail
IN THE ELECTION last

TN THE ELECTION last Tuesday
the candidates on the peoples
ticket stood for certain definite
principles which found expression
in the brief and specific platform ont
lining plans for public improvements
curtailment of public expense. an If
icient police and fire department, all
based on the highest standard of pub
lie service economically administered
These declarations undoubtedly fepre
sented the state of the public mind
toward these questions, but they did
not in reality form the issue of the
brief campaign, for the opposition. in
/ a weak and evasive way, declared FOR
the same things. The real issue was
not written in the platforms, but it
was none the less well defined. 1t was
summed up in the question: Shall the
people of Wallace follow in the foot
steps of the county by turning over
the control of the city government to
the Day-Walker machine? That was
the issue and there were few indeed
who east their votes without a thor
ough understanding of it. The an
swer was SO clear and emphatic that
those who are in the habit of ignor
ing public opinion, who make money
the handspring of political power
must realize that in this little COM
munuy the people will not submit to
their dictation and control That is
the meaning of the victory of the peo
pies ticket. The line was clearly
cry was elected by the Day-Walkcr
machine, and the majority of the
council was elected by the opposition
ito, the machine For two years the
mayor, at the behest of those who
elected him, has obstructed the coun-
Gil and prevented it from doing the
things for which it was elected. With
this record it would seem that the
sponsors for Mayor Mowery would
have sought another candidate, but
they pinned their faith to the power
and prestige of money and the may
or's much vaunted personal popular
ity and nominated him for reelection.
The gage of battle thus declared was
promptly met by the nomination of
five members of the present council, a
majority by the peoples party, and
the balance of the ticket headed by
Homer G. Brown, made up of men who
We're known to be thoroughly in ac-
cord with them. 1t was therefore a
cleancut fight for control of the city
government between the people on the
one hand and the Day. Walker ma
fehne on the other The result was Il
landslide that effectually crushed the
machine. Its spokesman, the Day
daily, extrcated itself from the wreck
and recovered it's breath long enough
to make this brief comment: 1T were
idle to speculate on the cause of the
! landslide. The fact of the matter is
that there was a landslide, and that is
enough" The overwhelming major
| ity given the peoples ticket was
magnificent endorsement Of the pres
ent council, and correspOndingly
crushing reputation of Mayor Mowery
and the Day Walker machine

superintendent of the Hypo-
theet mine Mr. Linn has long
been a resident Of the Coeur
dAlene district, has had wide ex-
perience in the mines both as a miner
and in executive positions. and Is
we'll equipped to handle the Hypo-
theek. He succeeds Fred Bergen, the
change taking place on the 10th, when
Mr.. Bergen became superintendent of
the Marsh,
The bad condition Of the wagon road
from the mine to the Pine creek spur
has seriously interferred with opera
tions at the Hypotheek. No ore has
been moved for two weeks, but there
is a good prospect that the conditions
will be relieved by the last of the
week. The road has been badly wash
ed out necessitating the construction
of practically new road. The COM
pany has had men engaged in maxi
ing the repairs and it is gratifying to
learn that the county Is also assist
ing in the work.
Mill Running Steadily.
In spite of the fact that no ore has
been moved to the railroad, the mill
has continued to run as usual and the
accumulation of ore and concentrates
Awaiting shipment now amounts to
over 800 tons. With a resumption Of
ore shipments which Is expected with
in the next few days, the company
anticipates no further trouble on ac-
count of shortage of cars. The Car
situation is much improved, and the
accumulated ore viii move at rapid
rate. In this connection 1t may oe
stated that the net smelter returns on
lHypotheek ore show an average value
of 800 per ton. The mineral content
of the concentrates is about 65 per
cent lead, 8 to IL ounces silver and
81 to "a in gold. The crude ore aver
ages from rs to 80 per cent lead, with
less silver than the concentrates and
very little gold. The showing of ore
in the slopes Is reported better than
ever DefOre.
Shaft and Crosscut.
The winze on the vein from the 100
has been extended 100 feet and drift
Is now being run on the 1900 west.
The rake of the ore shoot Is to tho
west and the drift is showing up very
satisfactorily with more or less ore all
the time. 1t is also proposed to cross
cut from the winze on the 1900 to
what is known as vein No. 1, which
shows about two feet of ore on the
HOO. 1t is estimated that the vein
should be cut in about 120 feet.
The crosscut on the 900 level to cut
the parallel vein that shows on the
surface has now been extended $50
feet. 1t should be reached any time,
but 1t is possible that fault recently
passed may have displaced it and
render it necessary to extend the
crosscut considerably further. On
the surface the showing Is 430 feet
| from the original vein.

National,

The National shaft is being sunk at
the rate Of three feet per day. The
purpose of the management is to sink
400 feet, with drifts at intervals OF
100 feet, which will keep check on
the character Of the ore as depth Is
gained. The improvement noted at
the 1900 level. or 200 feet below the
main tunnel level, leads to the belief
that the Improvement in the quality
of ore will continue

all indications point to the be-
ginning of operations by the
first of June, 1t is stated that more
than 80 per cent of the machinery and
general equipment is in position and
ready for use, and the final work is
going forward at a rate that insures
completion within the coming month.
The building of this great plant is un-
questionably the most important en-
terprise that has been undertaken IN
the Occur d'Alene district, for it's
beneficial effects will extend to every
section a permanent and tangible en-
couragement to the development Of
! tn mining resources by providing a
local market for the ores in whatever
quantities produced. The plant is un-
derstood to include every modern de-
vice for the successful and economical
reduction of lead and silver ores, and
also includes refinery thus making
the big Kellogg plant the medium for
transferring the metal from the mines
to the market. The completion of the
Bunker Hin will mark an epoch in
the history of the mining industry in
the Coeur dAlene district and It
should be celebrated in a manner be-
fitting the importance of the event.
Celebration at Kellogg.
The beginning of construction of the
Bunker Hill smelter was appropriate
ly celebrated, and was attended not
only by the people of this district, but
by representatives of the mining id-
dustry of the state of Idaho and the
northwest. The completion of the
plant and the treatment of the first
ore should be hailed by a great dcrl-
onstration. 1t is an event of such vast
importance to every citizen of the tls-
trict, the .prospector, the miner, the
operator and the business man, that
all should join in making it memoir
able occasion. 1t means a local mar
ket for the small producer as well as
the large a market available with the
heavy freight charges to distant smell
ters eliminated, and will thus give d.
rect encouragement to mining devel-
opment in all parts of the district. It
marks the beginning of new and
great home industry, which is destin-
ed to expand until practically all the
silver lead ores of the district, with
the exception of the product of those
mines which are owned or controlled
by other smelling companies, will be
lsmelted and refined at Kellogg.
Prepare for Celebration Now.
The possibilities of the smelling and
refining business as represented by the
Bunker Hill plant are so great thai ii
should at once enlist the enthusiastic
interests of the people generally, and
definite steps should be taken now to
celebrate the completion of the enter
prise on a scale commensurate with
it's importance The Kellogg board Of
trade should take the lead in these
preparations, and it will receive the
lcordial and active cooperation of 9TH
er commercial bodies of the district as
well as that Of all who are engaged di-
rectly in mining. The management of
the Bunker Hill e Sullivan company
will unquestionably give it's approval
to such celebration and show the
usual commendable public spirit in do
| ing everything possible to contribute
| TO its success

administra ton would have been one OF
instead of obstruc-
ton. Mr.. Taylor profited by his eN.
ures to prevent illegal voting which
brought about his defeat. Two years
ago there We're enough illegal votes
cast to probably account for the ma
jority received by Mayor MoWery, but
there was none OF that this year, a
fact that is chiefly due to the watch
fulness of Chairman Taylor and his
staff Of able assistants.

Tuesday the Alameda crosscut had
been advanced 1900 feet. 1t is still in
granite, but it is more or less broken
and considerable quartz is coming ill.,
all indicating that the contact Is not
far away, and which is expected to
show an ore shoot.

Strike Reported Last Week Continues

to Hold Good.
Reports from the East Caledonia
yesterday indicate that the Importance
Of the strike made en- the 400 level last
week was not over estimated. The
east drift has been extended 35 feet
and the face now shows between and
6 feet Of ore, 80 inches of which is
described as of shipping grade and the
remainder good mill feed. In the
west drift the showing Is reported
equally good. A stringer of ore run
ming in northerly direction is also
being followed, which gives promise
| of developing considerable value.

The amendment to the election law
passed by the last session of the leg
islature making the city treasurer an
Iappointive office and making council
men elected at large instead of by
wards is popularity believed to have
been put through ct the instigation of
the Day Walker crowd, the theory be-
ing that it would be less difficult to
elect the mayor and a majority of the
council under the amended law than
to defeat candidate for city treasur-
er whose popularity could not be shak-
en-. The amendment was shrew1ly
laid scheme, but the outcome Of the
first election under it must be sore
disappointment to it's originators ana
affords another striking example OF
the fateful slip 'twixt the cup and
