Every Citizen Should Cooperate Raising
Shoshone County's Red Cross Fund

Idaho would exceed the apportionment
and indications point to 100000 as the
amount the state will turn in to the
national Red Cross fund. While the
work in this county has been thor
oughly systematized with captains in
charge of the numerous units cover
ing the entire county, the work in the
closing days should enlist the active
cooperation of every citizen. The
large majority of the people have been
called upon Sby the various commit
tees and have subscribed, and the
work now is largely to find the scat
tering ones who have not yet been
reached for one cause or another and
get their subscriptions. The cooper
alton of all citizens in this work will
render the task less difficult for the
captains in charge and make certain
that Shoshone county will respond to
the call for $4,000. See that no citi-
zen is denied the privilege of sub
scribing to this noble and patriotic
cause,

CEDAR CREEK.
Drift Being Extended Under Shaft
from Main Crosscut.

Drift Being Extended Under Shaft
from Main Crosscut.
William Becker secretary Of the
Cedar Creek Mining & Development
company, returned from the property
the first of the week. He was accom-
panied by r. S. Merriam. mining en-
gineer. Mr. Merriam's work settled
beyond further question that the vein
which is being explored from the lower
crosscut is the main Cedar creek vein.
The drift that Is now being run east
erly Is still about $50 feet from point
under the shaft, but the rake of the
ore shoot as shown in the tunnel above
and in the drift from the bottom of
the shaft ore winze from that level
indicates that the ore shoot may be
expeced within $50 feet or less. The
fact that this drift has already passed
through good shoot of ore renders IL
probable that the main shoot may be
encountered any day. Much ore has
been disclosed in the two upper tun-
nels and In the winze. The drift now
being run will give depth Of 200 feet
below the latter, and the results in
the upper workings leave no room
for doubt that the ore will be found
and probably in a larger body on this
level.

TOUGHNUT.
Sunshine Company Drifting on Big
Ore Shoot.

Sunshine Company Drifting on Big
Ore Shoot
The Sunshine Mining company,
which has a bond on the Toughnut,
one of the well known properties on
Sunset, has resumed work on the big
ore shoot that was developed last
summer for distance of over 200 feet.
The drift is now running alongside
the vein, in fact between two veins
that pass through the Toughnut. 1t
will be extended to point near the
Tuscumbia end line. where a raise
will probably be made to the surface,
the distance being approximately 400
feet. The company also proposes to
run a crosscut from the Sunshine
ground to cut the Toughnut lead at
a further depth of 400 feet, giving a
total depth of 800 feet. This crosscut
will be started not far from the COM
pressor on Beaver creek and 1t is es-
timated that the vein should be cut
in about 900 feet.

"HE MATTER of suspending an
nual assessment work on mining
claims until the end of the war
is being agitated In various min
ing states of the west, but there ap-
pears to be no organized movement
to present the subject to congress. All
reports indicate that the proposal
meets unanimous approval in all the
mining states, and the suspension
of the law would be directly in line
with the policy of the government to
concentrate all efforts in work that
will contribute to the success of the
war. Certainly men who are sinking
prospect holes and running open cuts
500 can not be said to be contribut-
ing to the support of the government
in this great national emergency. Be-
sides the question of getting men to
do this work is serious problem now,
and it will be more so two or three
months later when a half million men
are called to the colors. Again the
people are just beginning to feel the
pressure of assessments in the form
of bond purchases. Red Cross contri-
buttons, which will soon be repeated
with the addition of special taxes at
every turn. Under these circum-
stances we believe that congress would
readily take the necessary action and
relieve all claim owners of assessment
work if the matter was presented In
manner that would clearly repre-
sent the sentiment of the mining in
terests of the west. So far as this
state Is concerned the Idaho Mining
association is the proper channel to
take up the matter and steps should
be taken to that end without further
delay.

~ ROFESSOR E. X. SOPER, of
the state university, Is in the
city for a few days on personal
business to which he is giving
attention during the vacation. He
came here from Bonner county, where
he visited several mining sections of
great promise He spoke particularly
Of the copper showings on Clark's
Fork and the Kootenai river where
much development work Is being done
with most encouraging results. Along
the east shore of Lake Pend d'Orielle
there are also large and promising
copper deposits and also much lead
silver ore similar to that of the Occur
d'Alenes. He regards the outlook for
mining in those sections very bright.
The Armstead Mining company Is
engaged in extensive development on
Black Tail mountain, on the west side
of the lake, and the result of its en-
terprise will prove of great value in
proving the permanency of mineral
deposits. A tunnel is being run which
will explore the vein to depth of
1900 feet. the first deep development In
that section. This is an old property
from which considerable ore has been
shipped from upper workings.

no support from the state govern

permental station in connection with
the state university is most favorable
Professor Soper says that c. A. Wright

reau of mines who will have charge
of the station and who recently visit
his duties on July l. He will have
two assistants whose salaries will be
provided through the fellowship plan
which will be maintained by private
subscription. These assistants have
not been definitely engaged, but Pro-
fessor Soper says two men Of rare
qualifications, who are anxious to take
the positions on account of the prac-
will afford, are In view and will prob
ably be engaged In his opinion the
station will be fortunate in securing
their services. They are men having
practical experience in metallurgical
work and who see in the experimental
station fine opportunity to further
equip themselves in their professions.
Expect State Support.
Professor Soper expressed much con-
fidence that the work of the expert
mental station will prove of such pro-
nounced and practical benefit to the
mining industry that by the time the
next legislature assemblies there will
be no opposition to giving. it adequate
financial support by the state. There
Is q perfect spirit of cooperation be-
tween the men in the mining depart
ment of the university and those in
the experimental station, and all are
entering the work with an enthusiasm
that cannot fail to accomplish bene-
fetal results. e
