ADDING TO THE SURPLUS

Tax Demand.
EXCESS profits tax is still
AN unsolved problem so far as
the Hecla Mining company is

"HE EXCESS profits tax is still
an unsolved problem so far as
the Hecla Mining company is
concerned, and for that matter
so far as vast number of other cor
porations are concerned, particularly
those having a low capitalization with
large earnings. The government it
self seems to be in a hopeless tangle
in the construction of the war tax
laws, and now after months have
elapsed there is no indication of an
early decision that will form a basis
for constituting the myriad Of provi-
sions found in the excess profits tax
law. The Hecla company months ago
remitted the tax according to expert
construction of the law, and also un-
der ruling of the department that
corporations having low capitalization
might under certain conditions adjust
their tax in accordance with the
amount paid by corporations similar
ly situated and having a high capital
ization. Whether this will be accept
able to the government or not, the
company has received no intimation.
In the meantime congress is work.
ing on another war revenue law which
will greatly increase the present ex-
cess profits tax and which will no
doubt become a law. Under these
circumstances the management of the
Hecla company evidently considers
the only safe course is to continue
turning out lead for the use of the
government and let the earnings of
the company accumulate in order to
be prepared to meet any demand that
may be made in the way of taxes.
Running SIS Usual.
The Hecla company has felt the eff
fects of the labor shortage, but prob
ably not to the extent that it has eff
fected other mines of the district. The
company is now handling it's zinc pro-
duct through the Standard mill of the
Federal company, which it has under
lease. Both this mill and the COM
pany's mill at Gem are handling the
usual amount of ore, and with the
present favorable prices of the metals,
the company's surplus is of course
steadily growing There seems to be,
however no ground for the recently
published report that the company
would soon resume dividend payments.
1t is not likely that this will be done
until there is definite information re-
garding the amount that will be de-
manded by the government in the
form of war taxes, both for last year
and this year. The recent advance
in the price of Hecla stock is under
stood to be due to buying orders
rather than to the prospect of early
dividends
Large Station at 1000.
The large station and skip pocket
at the 1000 level are now nearing
completion. Crosscutting will soon be-
gin and a long distance will have to
be run to reach the ore shoot on this
level. which is 400 feet below the pre-
sent lowest level. The station on the
1000 is large In order to accommodate
the pumps which will be moved from
the 1900.

SINKING TARBOX WINE
MAKING GOOD PROGRESS
NOW DOWN OVER 1926 FEET-LET.
TER TELLS CONDITION AND
PLANS OF COMPANY.

William Wallace, foreman of the
/ TarboX mine near Saltese, was in the
city the first of the week. Work in
the mine is confined to the winze that
is being sunk 200 feet from the 800
level. This is now down over 1875 feet
and is expected to be completed to the
1000 level before the first of Septem-
Der. A crosscut will then be run to
the vein which should be cut within
rs feet. The ground is breaking fine,
Mr. Wallace says, and he expects to
have the erosscut in ore by the first
OF October.
The condition of the property and
plans for the immediate future are
outlined in a circular letter issued b.
Richard DaXon, manager, under date
of August s, which here follows:
To the Stockholders.
Since my last report, May 49, good
progress has been made, a force Of
20 to 25 men having been steadily
employed. Our monthly expenses are
now aggregating $4,000 for labor and
supplies. A large station has been
cut on the 500 level and machinery in
stalled. The wfnze is now sunk to a
depth of 125 feet, and with ordinary
success we should have the winze
down to the 1000 level and a 25-foot
stump sunk, station cut and crosscut
rs feet to the foot wall of the big ore
shoot by October l. An exceptionally
good job of timbering has been done
owing to war conditions we have
our treasury stock, and it is now
deemed advisable by our board of dir
ectors not to undertake to finance
the company from this source at pre-
sent or until such time as the ore
bodies have been explored on the 1000
level
"Pans have been submitted for
100 ton mill which will cost approxi-
mately $4,000. It is the intention of
the management to begin operations
toward installing an up-to-date mill
as soon as conditions are favorable.
Work will be resumed on the water
power at once and rushed as rapidly
as possible.
Better Ore on 1000.
To-, ha ,if,ip nf al uyal IN fny
ed mining men who have recently ex-
amined the property that it is a big
mine now and that 1t is only a ques-
ton of financing the company to equip
the mine with a modern concentrat-
ing and flotation plant in order to
make 1t one of the large producers OF
the Coeur d'Alene district. Judging
from the steady Improvement shown
in the grade Of the ore as depth has
been attained, shoots of commercial
ore, together with large bodies Of high
grade mill feed, will be exposed on the
1000-foot level.
"At meeting of the board of dir
ectors held on the End day of August,
1t was decided to levy an assessment
Of 10 mills per share on the out
standing capital stock of the corpora
ton in order to finance the company
to carry on the work. Kindly remit
the amount of assessment at your
earliest convenience.
Stockholders are cordially invited
to visit the mine and see for them
selves the large ore bodies exposed on
the 600 and s00-foot levels"

CAPTAIN Qu|GLEY HAS
LEARNED WHAT WORK IS
HE ADMITS THAT HE NEVER
KNEW UNTIL HE ENTERED
THE v. s. ARMY.

A letter from DR.. f. Leo Quigley
captain In the medical corps Of the
United States army, to Thomas Nc
Cabe, manager of the Miner contains
such vivid description of life in the
great training camp at Fort Ogle-
thorpe, Ga. embodying the conditions
under which the captain gained a new
and comprehensive conception of the
meaning of the word work" that it
Is here reproduced for the entertain
ment and edification of his many
friends in the Occur d'Alene district:
No Eight Hour Shift Here.
Camp Greenleaf, Fort Oglethorpe,
Ga, July 2S, 191S.-My dear Tom: |
have some very vivid recollection of
statements made by you that you
worked Well, l am here to tell you
that you don't know what the word
means We spell it down here with
capital letters in order to impress it
upon your brain. l have learned the
true meaning of the word work"
AT $3.50 we hop out; at six physical
exercise and these are not a joke; $3.50
breakfast; 7:10 drill until 9:15 in the
hot boiling sun and a dusty field, with
the sweat pouring off in streams and
every stitch, including breeches soak
ing wet 9:30 to 11:45 lectures; 1900
dinner; 12:45 to 3, lectures. At three
we start on three mile march to the
gas house where we receive instruc-
tions In 1.-The use Of the gas mask and
get acquainted with the smell of the
different gases used on the French
front. At 4:30 we start back on the
three march to camp and then
go to the parade ground for drill; at
8 we have supper; at seven, quiz, and
at $3.50 bed; and when taps are
sounded we are so tired that 1t hurts
to take our clothes off. Tired
Heavens! l never knew what II was
to be tired Tired in mind, body and
spirit.
At first the change was so radical
that my mind was in a chaos. We
are formed into companies and treat
ed just the same as the privates in the
regular army. We have men away
up high in the profession, and men
away down low, but Uncle Sam makes
no distinction. He is not much of a
respector of persons. And yet | like
1t tremendously. One can learn lot
and physically It puts you in excellent
tune
This camp has $500 physicians in
1t and 500 dentists. They are coming
and going all the time and orders to
go overseas" are received every day
calling out about SO physicians on
each CALL We never know when our
turn will come but we must be ready
to report within two hours.
The government detention camp for
alien enemies Is here. There are two
ten-foot wire fences around 1t and
each fence is charged with $4,000 volts
Of electricity. On each side of the
fence there are three guard houses
with machine guns. The prisoners
are not allowed to go within ten feet
of the fence. Not many try testing
out the voltage.
How is Stone, Stewart and Howes?
Give them my reards. You had bet
ter come in before 1t is too late. You
will at least learn the meaning of the
word work"
Sincerely yours,
F. LEO QUIGLEY.
