AN EXPLANATION FROM THE
 GEN. GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE

In the last few days there has been 2 number of statements made as to who called the strike m this district Onc statement which was printed in a local p;,per of this district was that lhe men who presented the demands 10 tire managers were selected Ly the workjrgmen after tiie strike vote Was taken about one month ago.
 That is not the truth. The men who presented the demands were the duly elected Grievance Committee and were elected on company property last Jan uary.
 Another statement was that after the General Grievance Committee re- ceived the managers answer that they then left the managers office and went at once to the Casino Hall on Chase Creek and entered into con- ference over the situation. Before morning they voted to call a strike. The General Grievance Committee has not the power to call a strike, never did have and probably never will have. We were acting absolutely under orders from the Central Labor body and when we received the managers answers we did go at once to the Ca sino Hall, but it was to report to the Central Labor body, the men who sent us to the managers.
 The managers did ask for 10 days to give their answer and the Central Labor body instructed us to give it to them; that if they waited the en- tire 10 days that the answer must be yes or no.
 In that 10 days we, the General Grievance Committee. were ready at any and all times to take these matters up for discussion. We are still ready.

BAPTIST CHURCH

We purpose to offer two specials for Sunday Unless the unusual hap pens we will give you two warm ser vices, one at II o'clock and the other at S in the evening We should be pleased to have your presence at eith- CT or both services. While we prom ise both to be warm it is highly prob. able that there will come a day when there will be even a warmer gathering. where there will be no electric fans to keep the folks cool Good judg- ment would indicate that it is better to take little of the warm now than SC much hereafter. Come and sweat with us fer one hour and we will en- joy your presence. You will hear some good singing and sermon at the evening hour on Boot-Strap Re- ligion It may be that is your kind. Come and see. If you come early you might find a cool seat but we will warm you if your religion is of the Boot-Strap kind

N EXICAN KILLED WITH ] SHOTS

Santiago Esrarza of Morenci Shoots and instantly Kills Venture Castillo on the Evening of the Fourth. Six
 Shots fired Into Head,One in Body.

Morenci ,sas the scene Of vicious murder on Wednesday night {; A,Gt 9 ( clock WEan Santiago Esparzi shot and killed Veiitdro Castillo, the dead man being the disturbing factor in the ever present eternal triangle. The tragedy tocI- place on Chihaahua Hull opposite the Morenci jail, the shots being heard ov several people n the camp but thought to have been youth ful patriots shooting off firecrackers When Deputy Sheriff Hill appeared on Iae scene he found the dead man " ing face Up on the side Ot the noun tain and his slayer nowhere in sight Castillo had been shot six times through the head and once through the body, death being instantaneous It is said that Esparza married an old sweetheart of the dead man and that after marriage Castillo was in the habit of calling on her at intervals, and this circumstance no doubt led up to the killing. On the night in question Esparza was returning home land saw Castillo coming down the hill from the direction of his house and his suspicious were aroused. As Gas tillo approached and when within four or five feet of him Esparza whipped out an automatic and fired the seven shots in quick succession, all of them taking effect in the mans body and any one of which would have probably caused death.
 A gun was found on the ground un- der the body of Castillo but it is not thought that he tried to pull it as his hands were outstretched and the gun was lying in such a position that it did not look as though he had touched it. The theory of the officers is that in sliding dwn the hill after being hit, the gun fell out of his pocket, and being armed it looks as though he was prepared for trouble.
 After the shooting Esparza made his escape and up to this time has not been located by the officers, although a strict watch is being kept for him

FOUR T|MBERS COMPANY
'cR0sscUT THREE VEINS
NEARING FOURTH-OID OFFiC
ERS REELECTED AT RECENT
ANNUAL MEETING.

William Shannon, manager Of the
Four Timbers Mining company, came
over from Beaver creek Tuesday. he
reports the crosscut having been ad-
vanced 100 feet and according to sur
vey the fourth vein, known as the
Merrimac. should be cut any day.
Three veins have been intersected by
this crosscut, all of which show more
or less values in lead and zinc and all
have indications favorable to develop
ing commercial ore. While they are
generally referred to as three veins,
showing three strong outcrops, the
crosscut shows that they are converg-
ing and the belief Is that they will
unite in one great vein with depth.
The Four Timbers group lies north OF
and adjoins the Ray-Jefferson grouu
and is west Of the Amazon Manhattan
upon which large body of ore has
been developed, and Is supposed to be
on the same vein
Work has been Temporarily suspen-
ded in the crosscut in order to do con
siderable outside work during the good
weather and also to make some re-
pairs on the compressor plant

the monuments TO the west line Of
the state, there to be continued by the
Washington pioneers to Walla Walla.
So far as we know the matter has re-
ceived no attention in Idaho. but II
should awaken popular interest.
The relation of the Mullan road to
the Occur d'Alene district is of special
significance. without 1t the discov-
cry of the great mineral deposits here
would unquestionably have been long
deferred, for 1t was In company with
a detachment of United States SOL
diers travelling over the Mullan road
that A. ]. Prichard discovered float"
that excited his interest and led him
to discover gold on the creek that
bears his name. Without the Mullan
road Mr.. Prichard would not have
been here at that time and the honor
of making the first mineral discovery
In the district would probably have
been won by some other intrepid
prospector at later date.
The Mullan road was an important
factor in the settlement and develop
ment Of the northwest, and the mem
Dry Of it's builder should be perpet-
uated in this state just as 1t has been
In Montana. A state organization OF
Idaho pioneers was formed at Boise
last week, which is expected to ex-
tend to every county. When the or
ganization is completed the matter OF
erecting monuments along the Mullan
road is a subject well worthy Of it's at
tention.

SHOULD PERPETUATE MEMORY
OF PIONEERS.

The pioneers Of Montana have
erected a series of monuments in hon.
or of Captain John Mullan along the
line of the famous road which he con-
structed from Fort Benton, Montana,
to Walla Walla. This road was built
for. military purposes primarily, for
ming the connecting link between the
head of navigation of the Missouri
river at Fort Benton with govern
ment road from Wala Walla to Puget
sound The work was begun in 1858
and completed five years thereafter.
1t was built at a time when the north
west was a Wilderness inhabited by
Indian tribes hostile to the white
man, and few scattering settlements
and missions. The building of the
road required not only engineering
skill, but particularly those stern and
indefatigabre qualities which over
come all obstacles, characteristics of
the western pioneers and which were
typieally exemplified in Captain John
Mullan. The Montana pioneers COM
pleted the work Of perpetuating this
historic road in their state on the
Fourth of July, when a statue of
Captain Mullan was unveiled with ap-
propriate ceremonies at st. Regis. |
The Montana pioneers expect the pio-
neers of Idaho to take up the work
where they have left off and continue

EAGAN.

Thomas Eagan, original locator and
owner of the property of the Eagan
Copper Mining company, near Adair.
was in the city last week. The prop
erty was leased a few months ago TO
four miners lately employed at the
Richmond. Since taking the lease
they have built a commodious bunk
house and other necessary buildings
and completed the wagon road to
Adair They have also made subs6an-
tial progress in driving the main drift
and in doing so ethey have taken out
quite large amount of ore, most OF
it of shipping grade. Mr.. Eagan
states that there is about a carload of
ore on the dump which is probably
now being hauled to the railroad for
shipment The four leasers and one
additional man are working. Eagan
ore is very similar to the Richmond
and is in the same mineral belt, prob
ably on the same vein.
