PINE CREEK WAGON ROAD.

The high water carried out seven
bridges on the Pine creek wagon road
and badly damaged the roadway.
County Commissioner John Bollinger,
who has Jurisdiction over that part of
the county. states that all these
bridges have been rebuilt and the
wagon road repaired to an extent that
places it in fairly good condition. The
construction of the railroad will make
it necessary to change the wagon road
in several places, the charge to be
made by the railroad company. For
this reason Mr.. Bollinger states that
it would be useless to go to the ex-
pense of making more permanent im-
provements on the road at this time.
The condition of the road now Is such
that the operating companies on Pine
creek, Mr.. Bollinger said are prepar-
ng to resume hauling ore.

Rush ]. White, mining engineer or
this city, is in Butte, where he has
taken up the work of the late Fred
r. Greene in preparing the case for
the Elm Orlu Mining company in the
pending litigation with the Butte q
Superior Mining company, Mr.. Greene
was the chief engineer for ex-senator
w. A. Clark, who owns the Elm Orlu,
and Mr.. White was associated with
him in preparing the case. In fact'
he had Just returned from Butte where
he had been engaged with Mr.. Greene
when the news came during the mol
idavs that he had been killed in an
automobile accident. Mr.. White was
therefore called to Butte to complete
the work, with which he was already
familiar; and will be the chief reiiance
Of the Elm Orlu people when the case
goes TO trial. John P. Gray is attor-
nev for the Elm Orlu. A report is

COPPER KING LOOKS BIG
LEAD AND GRAY COPPER
APPEARS TO BE BEGINNING OF
LARGE BODY OF GOOD
MILLING ORE.

Since starting to follow the stringer
leading north from the lead ore shoot
struck several months ago in the
Copper King, about 120 feet has been
run. At about IS feet the drift or
crosscut entered an ore body which
appears to be running east and west.
The ore was penetrated for a distance
OF 35 feet, about three feet of which is
gray copper and the remainder lead
ore of good milling grade. At this
point mineralized quartz was encoun-
tered running almost due east and
west, and drifting east was started
following the quartz. About thirty
feet had been run yesterday in that
direction, the entire face being in ore,
which includes about a foot or more
of gray copper The ground to the
by drills from the crosscut, showing
ore, which seems to prove body OF
ore for width of 80 feet and which
has been followed east for an equal
distance WIFI lIt ldlc III oi0. IiiO
position of this ore body outside the
big mineralized zone is rather puzzl-
ing, and it's further development is be-
ing watched with unusual interest.
Directors Meet.
The directors of the Copper King
met at Mullan Tuesday evening and
levied an assessment of l cent per
share. In spite of this the stock was
strong yesterday on the Spokane ex-
change, selling at cents which with
the assessment is equivalent to 3
cents. Manager ingalls, was in the
city yesterday and stated that there
is quite an accumulation of ore on the
dump taken out in the course Of de-
velopment, and he is already giving
some consideration to a mill, so con-
fident is he that the present showing
is the beginning of a great ore shoot.

|Exorbitant Rates

Compensation Law

mems compensation law, the
L city of Wallace will pay into
the state insurance fund the
sum OF $3l6.23 to insure compensation
against accident for ten firemen, ten
street workers and three policemen.
This pays for six months, or up to
July /, when the rate is subject to
change and will probably be raised, as
the state is little shy on business
and the staff of officers and subalterns
must be paid The rate per 500 of
payroll per month for these city en-
poyes established by the state insur-
ance manager follows: Firemen,
$6.10; street workers, $21O; policemen,
49,
These figures were called to the at
the big surety companies doing bust
ness in this state and he looked up the
rates made by his company for the
same class of business. Here they
are anu pear III nllnu lHdl llese rates
are for one year, while the above rates
charged by the state are for only six
months: Firemen, $433 street work
ers, 1894; policemen, flat rate of $40
per year. According to these figures
the city could have insured it's en-
ployes for the entire year for $254.75,
while the state eXacted $316.23.
1t is no wonder that practically all
the large employers of the state have
refused to take out insurance with the
state, and many small employers
would have done likewise if they had
looked into the question before maxi
ing application for state insurance.

These figures should impress those
citizens who live remote from the
mining districts with the importance
of the mining industry to the state.
In the language of Mr.. Bell, these ng-
ures are based on the gross metal
contents of all minerals shipped from
Idaho mines during the year. 1t is

tributes vast sums in the form Oh
taxes for the support OF the state,

and affords an all-year market for
the products of the farm, orchard anu

to call attention to the dividends pald
by the mines in comparison WIN the
value Of the gross output. In sho-
shone county, the great center Oh MN

mineral output was $51,71757S, Whiie
the dividends disbursed by these same
mines during the year amounted 10
only $1O925,69S, a little more thah
one fifth of the total value OF the
wealth produced. Who got the other
four -fifths? 1t was distributed III

High Grade Copper

pearance 'of high grade cop

and which caused a considerable fur
ry in the stock market. From in
formation received from Mullan yes
terday evening, the strike is of consid-
cradle Importance and encourages the
belief that the drift is entering large

400 feet the drift has shown eontn-
uous low grade copper ore from to

this ore is reported FUZZY feet wide

wv of Shoshone county showed a
substantial increase in 1917
while the value of the output was far
In excess of any previous year, due
mainly to the high prices of the metals.
The above figures of production and
value were compiled from the revised
estimates made by the state mine in
spector, Robert N. Bell. In his review
of the mining industry of Idaho for
the year 1917, published in the Miner
of January 8, Mr., Bell placed the to-
tai value of the mineral output of
the state at $5O,0OO,0O0 Yesterday a
letter from him changed his estimate
of the output materially, based upon
more complete returns making
large increase in the production of
lead, zinc and gold, reducing his es-
innate of copper, but no change in
his original estimate of silver.
When the first estimate was given
Mr. Bell stated that about 95 per cent
of the silver, lead and zinc produced
in Idaho came from the Occur dAlene
district, or Shoshone county, 20 per
cent of the copper and 10 per cent
of the gold, and it is assumed that the
same rule holds good with his final
estimate. 1t is on that basis that the
above figures of production of Sho-
shone county were obtained. The
values were computed on the average
prices of the metals for the entire
year, which are here given: Silver
S1.241 cents per ounce copper, 26.946
cents per pound; lead, S.7S7 cents per
mound: zinc. S73O cents per pound.

MINING INTERESTS OPPOSE
GOVERNMENT CONTROL

The bill that is soon to be intro
duced by Representative Foster
empowering the president to take
over all mines and operate them
under government control has call
ed out vigorous protest from the
mining states A conference has
been called by the American Min
ing congress to meet at Denver on
January 81, when representatives
of the mining industry in all parts
of the west will adopt definite
plans in opposition to the proposed
law. The operators of the Occur
d'Alene district will select dele
gates today to attend the Denver
meeting. The mining industry,
and particularly the producers of
lead, zinc and copper, has not fail
ed to respond to every war meas
ure of the government and will con-
tinue to dQ so. For this reason
the representatives of the industry
are unable to see any justification
for the passage of the drastic law
proposed, since these metals are
being furnished to the government
practically at it's own price and
the supply is ample to meet all re-
quirements. The passage of the
law, even if the president does not
exercise the authority granted him,
would prove a serious menace to
the mining industry to which it
should not be subjected.

BEAVER, PR|CHARD AND
PINE CREEK RAILROADS
WORK OF RECoNSTRUcTIo TO
GO FORWARD AS RAPIDLY
AS POSSIBLE.

The O.-W. r. & ~ company is los
ing no time repairing the damages
caused by the recent high Water. So
far as the main line is concerned, the
work is so far advanced that it is eX-
Ipected that the regular wo-trains "A =
day service will be restored between
this city and Harrison probably by the
last of the week. One train a day is
now running leaving at 1880 in the
morning and requiring about three
hours each way to make the trip. The
track was badly washed out along the
river, particularly in the vicinity of
Rose Lake which largely accounts for
the slow running time The Bug is
again making regular trips between
this city and Enaville.
North Fork and Beaver.
About one hundred men are en-
ployed by the company repairing the
North Fork and Beaver creek branches,
This work will be rushed to compile
ton as rapidly as possible in order
to take care of shipments from the
Amazon Manhattan, ore from which is
now being treated by the Ray-Jeffer-
son mill. The mill has large storage
room for concentrates which will be
sufficient to meet the requirements un-
til the road is open for traffic, which
is expected to be in about two weeks.
Prchard Creek.
AS soon as the Beaver creek branch
is in running order, the men will be
transferred to Prichard creek and
that part of the North Fork line above
the mouth Of Beaver. A new bridge
will have to be built across the North
Fork a short distance below Prichard.
Plans of the company regarding the
road along Prichard creek are not
known beyond the fact that it will be
rebuilt without delay, The present
lime is in the middle of the wide can
| yon and but little above the creek
| level, making it subject to washing
out with each recurrence of highwater,
land it was reported this week that the
company contemplates building a new
| line along the hill on the south side
of the creek high enough to make it
safe from future floods. This plan
would no doubt prove cheaper in the
long run, rather than to restore the
old track which would probably go out
iagain a few months later

BIG CREEK COMPANY HAS
7 FEET OF MILLING ORE.

A crosscut south from near the
face of the main erosscnt encoun-
tered the vein a few days ago and
yesterday evening had penetrated
silver, accompanied by considerable
gray copper This is the cheering
news that comes from the Big
Creek property, of which G. Scott
Anderson is the manager. There
are several streaks of high grade
one of which is five or six inches
wide of clean gaiena. Samples Of
the ore may be seen at the Ander-
son Lumber & Hardware company.
The strike is one of gpeat import
ance, and while its extent remains
to be determined, the developments
which larg amount of ore has
been shipped fully justihes the eX-
pectation that this will prove to be
a permanent and rich ore body. 1t
was for this that the crosscut 2400
feet in length was run, and the
splendid showing now exposed
seems to justify the extensive dew
elopment plans of the management.
In the upper workings there are
two ore shoots, one gray copper
and the other lead. Extensive
shipments have been made from
the former, which returned very
high values in silver. 1t Is possible
that the two shoots have united to
form the big shoot that has now
been struck

DOUGLAS.
Work on the West Side of the Creek
Is Showing Up Fine.


The high water brought mining op-
erations, so far as ore shipments are
concerned to a standstill on Pine
creek. At the Douglas practically the
entire force of about so men were
laid off, with the exception of few
men on development. These were en-
ployed in the tunnel on the west side
of the creek, opposite the main work
ings, where the vein had bee ndiscoy-
cred several weeks ago. How far this
tunnel has now been driven is not
known, but from information direct
from the mine this week it was learn
ed that the ore is showing up fine and
gives promise Of being the best ore
shoot that has been opened in the
mine. With the wagon road again
open, and good prospect for a per-
manent snow roadbed, 1t is expected
that the Douglas will soon begin ore
shipments.

GRADUATES
SWEET SIMPLICITY"

Fairfield, March 5.-The young la
dies who are members of the senior
class of the Fairfield high school have
voted unanimously to forego lot Of
pretty clothes for their graduation
this year and instead have but one
simple white dress which must do for
the three prominent occasions OF
commencement time: the baccalau-
reate sermon, graduation day and the
annual reception.
It has been the custom in the Fair
field high school to make the COM
mencement season one Of great pleas
ure in the wearing of at least three
elaborate gowns and many parents
have been almost distracted at this
time in their anxiety to have their
daughter appear as well as others.
Now the young ladies themselves
have solved the problem this year
and state that because a number Of the
high school boys are in active service
for their country that they have de-
cided to serve by conserving in the
dress line. Their decision meets the
hearty approval Of all and there is
not the slightest doubt but that the
girls Of the 1918 class of the old F. n.
S. will look Just as sweet and demure
in their simple white dress as they
would in more expensive and elab-
crate gowns, and their example may
we'll be followed by other schools.
