CONSTITUTION.
Pine Creek Mine Is Reported Shipping
20 Tons per DAY.

From parties who visited Pine creek
the first of the week it is learned that
the Constitution company is now ship
ping an average of 20 tons of ore per
day. Most of the ore is said to be
crude recovered from sorting belt
recently put in by the company. The
Constitution mill as originally built
VAS exclusively flotation plant, which
is now understood to have been in
adequate to meet the requirements, as
the fine grinding necessary for flota-
ton rendered II impossible to get
through the required amount of ore.
II Is stated that jigs will be put In
which will enable the company to re-
cover coarse mill product and to
put through 100 tons per day or
more. This change with the usual
output Of crude ore will greatly in
crease the shipments from the Con-
stitntion.

DULUTH mi NNEAPOllS.
Extending Main Drift and Crosseuttins
to Parallel Vein.

Sixteen men are employed by the
Duluth Minneapolis Mining company,
on Grouse gulch, a tributary of Nine
Mile. The main drift continues to be
extended through ground that shows
most favorable indications of an ore
body, and it is now regarded probable
that the tunnel is running just above
a great shoot of ore. Values in lead
and zinc have been found practically
continuous, while the formation and
vein structure are of the most favor
able character. sWhile exploring this
vein a crosscut is being run in a
northerly direction to intersect what
Is known as the Monarch vein. which
parallels the California BLACK Cloud.
This crosscut has been extended about
$50 feet and it is estimated that about
$50 feet remains to be run to cut the
vein. The Duluth Minneapolis is one
Of the best equipped development COM
panies in the district and all work is
being done on permanent basis.

HEcLA DIVIDEND
Company Has Now Paid Over Six and
Half Million.


Last Monday the Hecla Mining COM
papy paid dividend No. III OF 10 cents
per share, amounting to $4,000. The
company has now paid this year ST.
200 1000, which brings the grand total
paid by the company up to $6,5o5,Ooo.
While no direct report regarding the
condition of the mine has been issued
recently. it is known that the ore re-
serves definitely determined are larger
than ever before in the history OF the
property. The east vein, which Is
parallel to the original, is reported to
be fully as good as the old one, while
the Oreornogo, which carries consid-
cradle zinc with the lead, is also re-
ported to be developing satisfactorily.
On account Of its zinc content, the ore
from this vein is treated at the Marsh
mill, the Hecla mill not having facili-
ties for recovering zinc.

BRADY HAS A SOLUTION
FOR |. v. ". TROUBLES
URGES SECRETARY OF LABOR
TO DEPoRT ALL ALIEN
MEMBERS. q.

A letter from r. O. Jones, private
secretary to Senator James II. Brady,
tells OF the action taken by the sena-
tor to induce the department of labor
to adopt means to rid the country OF
the l. w. w. menace. Mr.. Jones Is
well known in this district. having
resided many years at Kellogg prior
to becoming associated with Senator
Brady as private secretary The re-
commentator of the senator that
every alien member of the organiza-
ton be deported will meet the ap-
prevail of every citizen who Is famil-
lar with its lawless and seditious
teachings. Senator Brady does not
believe in sending boards Of concilia-
ton to treat and attempt to patch up
peace with criminals. His idea Is TO
rid the country of the presence OF those
who are not citizens and impose the
severest punishment upon those who
are. His efforts to induce action by
the department of labor are told In
the following paragraph from Mr.
Jones:
Deport the Aliens.
Senator Brady conferred yesterday
with the officials in2the department OF
labor in regard to the I. w. w. mem
ace In the western states. The sera-
tor pointed out that this menace
seems to be extending and that the
department of labor ought to begin inn
mediate steps to handle the situation
in every part of the country. As the
immigration act of February 8, 1917,
gives the secretary of labor the au-
thority to arrest and deport any alien
who Is teaching disbelief in organized
government, or who belongs to any
organization such as the /. w. w.
which entertains and teaches disbe-
lief or opposition to organized govern
ment, Senator Brady pointed out that
there was ample authority in the de-
partment of labor and ample machin-
cry to begin action which would de-
stroy the |. W. W. movement. The de-
partment of labor not only has the
authority to arrest, but the decision
as to whether any certain alien shall
be allowed to remain in the United
States or be deported will be deter
mined by the bureau of immigration
and not by jury. Since 1t is stated
that much over so per cent Of the
membership of the /. w. w. in the
Unitde States at the present time is
composed of aliens, the arrest and de-
portation of these alien leaders, a few
from each locality, would have very
Statutory effect. The department OF
labor Is making very thorough and
exhaustive study Of the !. w. w. situ-
alton in every section of the country,
and 1t is believed that it will not be
long until some comprehensive action
will be begun which will relieve mat.

the vein for a distance of $50 feet and
the lower one 400 feet. Mr., White
states that there is ore the full length

the ore Is galena, carrying as high as
$50 ounces In silver. On the hanging
wall side and separated from the lead
by broad streak of tale and other
ledge matter, is about IA inches of
quartz carrying high values in gold.
He exhibited samples of this quartz
which were literally sprinkled with
free gold. About 80 tons of this gold
ore IL on the dump which the man
ager, Ross C. Carpenter. estimates to
be worth upwards of $4,000. The
company owns sawmill which Is now
engaged in turning out humber for
mill, which Is expected to be running
before snow flies, 1t is a ball mill
which will be moved from property
about six miles from the Vermilion

THE pRlLLER's TROUBLE.

(B. A. Price in Engineering and Mining
Journal)
The ground is as hard as the devil,
The steel won't cut at ALL
The smith knows a lot about temper!
The boss ought to give him call
One piece is as hard and brittle,
The next ones as soft as lead,
If he don't give us stuff we can work
with
I'll bend length over his head.
My partner blocked up like a farmer,
The bars coming down by the feel,
The air hose and water is leakin'
And I'm most as wet as a seal.
The machine takes oil like a furnace,
And blows it all over the face;
Some son of gun has swiped my
wrench
And left a bum one in its place.
Well ne'er get the round in by tally,
It's a cinch that the shifter is sore.
II the muckers had gotten the dirt out.
We'd have finished II long before
The powder and caps are rotten,
The fuse is genuine fake,
The air Is chock full of water
And the blasted ground won't break.
There's no need in sweating your life
out,
This job is awfully tough,
SO think it's time to taper off,
! guess she's In deep enough.

HISTORY OF HERCULES;
ITS DIVIDEND RECORD
MANAGER REPLIES TO CUES
TONS FROM MRS. CAR.
DONER.

Interesting facts are disclosed In a
statement submitted by Eugene K.
Day, manager Of the Hercules Mining
company, in compliance with the or
der of Judge Deitrichs Of the United
States court for the district of Idaho,
requiring the owners of the Hercules
to answer certain interrogatories pro-
pounded on behalf of Mrs. Mathilde
Gardener in her action to recover her
interest in the Hercules mine and
other interests held by the Hercules
Mining company. Mrs. Gardener own
ed one sixteenth interest in the
company which she sold to Eugene R.
Day and Mrs. Eleanor Day Boyce for
1870 200, and in her complaint filed In
the federal court In which she seeks
to have the interest restored to her
she alleges that she was induced to
part with her interest in the bonanza
mine through Misrepresentation of It's
value. AS a preliminary. step to the
trial of the case the attorneys for
Mrs. Gardener submitted list OF
questions bearing upon the internal
affairs of the company as means OF
arriving at the true value Of the mine
and the interest sought to be recov-
cred.
Resist the Order.
The Days made determined fight
against the order requiring them to
answer the questions, basing their
opposition mainly on the ground that
the series Of questions proposed re-
vealed the cloven hoof of the Guggen-
helms or "smelter trust" which hoped
by this means to gain information re-
garding the smelling operations Of the
Days. The evidence Of the sinister
motives of the "smelter trust" was not
convincing to the court, and an order
was issued requiring the questions to
be answered with few exceptions. 1t
was in pursuance of that order that
the answers were filed by Mr. Day
with the attorneys for Mrs. Gardener,
Graves, Kizer & Graves, of Spokane.
A summary of the answers as con-
densed by Spokane paper is here
given:
Profits Of Hercules.
The disbursement of $9,977,227 in
dividends Is 100000 below the pub
lished estimates of $10,250,O0O up to
the end of 1915. The dividends for
1915 up to October % were 1882 900,
as compared ~with the estimate of 49,
900 900 for the full year, and $4,000
In 1915, as compared with the estim-
ate Of $2,250,000. The estimates plac-
ed Hercules in leading position, but
the figures supplied by Mr.. Day place
the Interstate Callahan and the Bun
ker Hill & Sullivan companies in first
and second positions, respectively. for
the year 1915 and probably for 1916
among mines of the Occur dAlene re-
gion.
Dividends in Detail.
The dividend figures contained in
the answers Of Mr.. Day are the first
