Nearly $6,ooo,o 900 in Dividends.

The dividend of 81 per share to be
paid on March 81 will amount to $464,-
$50 and will bring the total payments
made by the company since April /,
1915, when the first dividend was paid,
up to $5,S12,375. or a total distrbu-
ton of $3.50 per share. 1t is under
stood that the company has large
surplus, and according to a recent
statement from ID. f. Haley, chief en-
gineer for the Interstate Callahan
company, it is proposed to utilize this
to a large extent in the acquisition Of
mining property in the northwest. The
company does not intend to limit its
operations to zinc mining, but is in
the field for any mining proposition
that looks promising and can be OBJ
tanned .on satisfactory terms. The
activity of the company will not be
confined to the Occur d'Alene district,
it is announced, and in fact II is un-
derstoOd that the company has al
ready acquired silver property in
south Idaho. 1t is regarded probable
that the plans for expansion outlined
for the company account for the re-
duction of the dividend this quarter.

Milling Facilities.

The new flotation plant in connec-
ton with the present mill Is expect
ed to be in operation in May, which
will have a capacity of 400 tons.
While this addition is being made to
the old mill, plans have been submit
ted to the directors of the company
for large new mill, possibly with a
capacity of 2O00 tons, to be built at
Enaville. The construction of this
will probably not be undertaken
for some time, as it involves a change
of outlet for the mine to the Beaver
creek side. This will necessitate the
completion of the long crosscut that
has been started near Carbon flat and
which will be over 1000 feet in length,
This will give a depth of over 1000
feet below the present main working
tunnel

The people of this city, and particu-
larly the property owners residing in
Improvement district No. 4. want the
streets paved. On this point there is
no chance for argument. 1t is equally
true that they are thoroughly tired of
the controversy that bas been raging
in and out of the courts for the last
two years over the question of paw
ing Under these circumstances they
expect the council to be guided by
their wishes, and to profit by expert
ence in the matter of awarding con-
tract. That the council is disposed to
do this does not admit of a doubt. In
fact, the council as a whole has
throughout the controversy been actu-
ated by desire to carry out this
great improvement in "a manner that
would serve the best interests of the
people who will pay for it. That mis-
takes were made will not be denied,
but at no time has there been the
slightest evidence that the council was
prompted by any motive other than
that of good citizens and conscien-
tious public officials. And it is in that
spirit that they will meet and solve
the problem that confronts them this
evening.

During 1916 the mining industry of
Idaho has again enjoyed the most

output of mineral, for various reasons,
did not much exceed in quantity that
of 1915, by virtue of the exceptional
demand maintained throughout the
year for lead and zinc mineral and the
high values for the metals prevailing,
the gross mine value won from our
mine operations in 1916 totaled about
$49,102, ,693, which is the largest and
highest years output in the history of
the state, The metal contents of the
