HeCla Strikes Ore
on the 1000 Level

The drift on the 2000-f foot level
of the Hecla mine encountered
about a foot of ore this week. The
ore is of good milling grade, and
sample sent down from the mine
which was described as the best,
VAS bright clean galena with con-
siderable zinc associated with 1t.
Zinc has never been an appreci-
able element in the Hecla ore, al
though 1t is stated that at the be-
ginnig of the ore shoot in the up
per levels the presence of zinc has
been usual, In view of that fact
the presence of zinc in ore just
encountered is not regarded as of
special significance, although the
proportion of zinc in the sample
shown Is probably higher than was
found under similar circumstances
above, The striking of this ore on
the 2000 was rather unexpected,
as the position of the shoot on the
1900 level indicated that $50 feet
remained to be run to reach it. 1t
Is nevertheless believed that this is
the beginning of the main shoot,
although it is possible that 1t may
be Independent of the big ore
body, 1t is recalled in this con-
nection that it was necessary to
run $50 feet further on the 1900
than was anticipated to reach the
ore shoot, so the finding of ore at
this time on the 1000 would in fact
correspond to the position Of the
shoot above the 1900. The Hecla
company is maintaining the out
put established several months
ago on account of the unsats-
factory market for lead, which is
about so per cent of normal.

TAR Box.
Wallace Resigns as Foreman-Good
Ore in Raise.

William Wallace, who has long been
foreman of the Tarbox, near Satese,
came over from the mine Monday He
was accompanied by his wife and they
left Tuesday afternoon for a few days
visit in Spokane. Mr.. Wallace has re-
signed his position with the TarboX
company and will probably engage in
mining on the Idaho side of the divide,
which for many years was his home.
He reports the Tarbox in fine condi-
ton for production, and development
work has been largely suspended in
anticipation of the early construction
of a mill A few men are employed
making a raise from the 1000 level to
the 500. This raise Is passing through
a fine body of ore. Mr.. Daxon, mana
ger of the Tarbox, is now II the east
to make financial arrangements for
the mill. The new foreman is william
Nye, who has for some time been en.
ployed by the company.

NON-SUiT GRANTED.
Case Involving Transactions on the
Stock Exchange.

Judge Wallace N. Scales, of Grange
Vile, who held court here last week In
the absence of Judge Woods granted
a motion for non-suit and dismissed
the case Of Whelan & Mortimer
against the J. f. Howarth company for
S7125. The suit grew out of the sale
of $4,000 shares of Chicago Boston
stock on the Wallace stock exchange
by Whelan & Mortimer to the How
arth company At the close Of the call
the Howarth company refused to take
the stock for which they. had bid 2SB
cents share, alleging in their de-
fense that the transaction was what
| Ia known as a wash sale. Judge Scales
held in dismissing the case that the
action did not come under the stat
ute Of fraud and that the suit should
have been instituted by Ramsay M.
Walker, who. according to the testi-
mony, was the actual owner Of the
stock. The case will probably be ap-
pealed.

CEDAR CREEK.
Crosscut Proves Ore Body to Be 26
Feet Wide.

John Weyer came over from tho Ce-
dar Creek yesterday, bringing with
him samples of ore taken from the last
round in the crosscut that was run to
prove the width of the ore body. This
has been run 16 feet and drill hole in
the face showed ore Is inches further,
making the total width of the ore
body about 26 feet, there being feet
in the face of the drift. The ore in
the face is mostly zinc, but the amount
of lead has steadily increased as the
crosscut advanced toward the hang
ing wall unit There is probably as
much lead as zinc. The ore comes in
streaks of varying width which widen
in the bottom. One of these Is report
ed fully a foot wide of almost clean
galena. Taking the entire width as
described it is regarded as fair milling
ore The company is now considering
plans for continuing the development,
for there seems no doubt that the
showing will prove to be large body
of commercial ore. A crosscut VIII
probably be run back from the face,
for since crosscutting in ore at the
face ii is believed that the drift mas
been running alongside Of ore on the
hanging wall side for considerable
distance, possibly 200 feet.

LABOR DEPARTMENT
REPRESENTED HERE
Act as Mediator Be-
tween Miners and
Managers
HAS BEEN BUSY WEEK
Makes Personal Investigation
of Conditions at the
Mines
HAS BEEN BUSY WEEK

"HERE HAS been no change in
the labor situation since the
last issue Of the Miner. In
which was given the request
from the International Union of Mine,
Mill and Smelter Workers for a con-
ference with the mine managers, and
the reply of the companies declining
to confer. While there has BEEN no
change, there Is nevertheless a moro
hopeful feeling that a general st:ike
will be averted although 1t must be
admitted that this feeling is chiefly
explained upon the theory that no
news is good news. 1t Is of course
apparent to any one at all familiar
with the conditions affecting the mia
ing industry at this time that strike
would simply result in complete
suspension of mining operations.
While such a result might not deter
some of the more radical single men
from favoring this extreme action,
knowing that within few hours an
other job could be obtained in other
with family is quite different. These
men upon reflection probably
prefer to bear for time the ills they
have rather than to fly to others
which they know would make their
condition worse.

MINING at M Mackey.

Owry Bass, of Black Bear, who un-
til recently has been operating pro-
fitable lease on the old Standard
Mammoth, returned last week from
visit to Mackay, Custer county He
reports conditions very prosperous In
that section of the state. He states
that the Empire Copper, the largest
mine at Mackey, is now operating al
together by leasing. Under present
conditions the company finds this sys-
TEN more profitable. Leases are made
for one year and all expire on the
same date, thus enabling the company
to change the system If so desired at
the expiration of the period. Mr.
Bass may return to that section few
months later.

The most notable event during the
week was the arrival last Saturday
afternoon of Robert M. McWade, of
Washington, d. c.. United States con-
cilliation commissioner representing
the department of labor. 1t Is pre-
sumed that Mr.. McWade came here
upon the request Of representatives Of
the union. AS his official title indi-
Gates, Mr.. McWade's duties are to act
as mediator between employers and
employees and if possible effect
friendly settlement of all disputes. He
has of course no authority to force
settlement upon either side, but as the
direct representative Of the depart
ment of labor his recommendations
are expected to have great weight.
Strikes are a menace to our nations
progress and prosperity" Is the motto
printed upon the upper edge of his Of
flcial card, from which 1t Is assumed
that he will use every effort at his
command to avert a strike wherever
he Is called upon to act in his official
capacity

o. B. WALLACE HERE.
Arranging to Start Important Mining
Enterprise.

Oscar B. Wallace, son of the found
er of this city and who always has
been actively identified with the devel-
opment Of the mining resources Of the
district, has been in the city for the
past week completing arrangements
for taking over certain mining prop
erty. During his absence for the past
few months he has been successful In
securing capital for mining develop
ment and expects to be in position to
announce his plans in a short time. Mr..
Wallace states that the Occur d'Alene
district is handicapped by a lack of
general publicity regarding its mineral
resources and the opportunities for
mining investments, and believes that
the business men of the various towns
| of the district should unite in sending
out broadcast attractive folders giving
mining scenes and facts regarding the
profits and production of mines, and
call attention to the many prospects
awaiting capital to develop them,

METAL PROTECTION.
American Mining Congress Prepares
important Bill.

The American Mining congress Is
preparing a bill soon to be introduc-
I'd in congress which will be known
as the national defense resource bill
It's purpose will be to place on per-
manent basis certain mineral sub
stances which can not be proftably
produced except through federal aid
in the form Of tariff protection or a
guaranteed market at minimum
price. The necessities of war led to
the production of many minerals at
home which had heretofore been i'm
ported, and it is now proposed that
the government offer inducements
which will justify the investment OF
capital in the development of these
mineral resources and place them on
permanent and profitable basis.

|. w. W. in Control
Forest Service Work

1t is bad enough when loyal
American citizens are forced out
of employment in private enter
prises by the demands of the l. w.
W., but when men having charge
of work for the government yield
to the demands of this criminal
aggregation and dismiss good Am
erican citizens, it is time a pro-
test was made against continue
tion Of this outrage. A case OF
this kind is reported from the
North Fork this week. The Unit
ed States forest service is engaged
in building trail from Prichard
up the North Fork and about 20
men are employed on the job. With
one exception all these men were
members Of the /. w. W., the eX-
ception being well known citi-
zen who has been a resident of
this county for 20 years and who
is 100 per cent American. Being
a practical miner, this man was
engaged especially to do the rock
work. A few days ago, according
to information received by the
Miner, the superintendent of the
work told him that the men OBJ
jected to working with him and
would strike if he remained on the
job. Instead of telling these wob-
blies to strike and be id, this
representative of the government
is reported to have told this loyal
American that under the circum-
stances he would have to let him
go, although assuring him that he
regretted to do so and that his
work had been in all respects sat
isfactory. How can the people of
this county expect relief from the
the I. w. W. menace when repre-
sentatives of the government yield
to their demands and discriminate
against loyal Americans?

ONE SHOT SHOWS ORE
IN COLUMBUS 0UTCR0P
EASTERN VISITORS ENTHUSlAS-
TIC OVER HOWlNG-WORk
IN THE CROSSCUT.

Philadelphia stockholders in the
Columbus Mining company, who visit
ed the property of the company on
East Eagle creek last week, had tan
gible evidence of the mineral bearing
character of the Columbus veins pre-
sented to them in an unusual manner
After climbing the steep mountain to
examine the outcrop of the veins,
which is very strong and suggestive OF
valuable mineral deposits, an old-time
miner Archie Smith, who accompan-
led them and who is familiar with
every foot of the ground put shot in
the cropping of one of the veins just
to show it up. The shot showed 1t
up alright, for all through the mass
of broken rock there was much glis-
tening galena, numerous samples or
which were carried away by the visit
ors. The party consisted of E. +.
Gallagher, who has been here for the
past two months Young Kineyside
of Philadelphia; Lionel c. Simpson, of
Camden, N. j.. and Daniel Robinson
of Bridgeton, N. J. 1t was the first
visit Of the last three gentlemen to
the Columbus, and they returned to
Wallace much enthused over the trip,
not only on account of what they had
seen at the property, but with the
beauty of the scene that formed a
panorama of surprising grandeur as
they motored over mountain road
that has no rival in the northwest.
Crosscut Near Vein.
The crosscut that is being run by
the Columbus company from the low
er tunnel on the first vein should cut
the second vein any day. Consider
able ore has been encountered in driv-
ing this crosscut and much confidence
is felt that an important ore shoot
will be found 1t was in the outcrop
of this vein that the ore above men,
toned was disclosed. Six men are
now employed at the Columbus and 1t
is expected that this force will be in
creased within the next few weeks.
Mr. Gallagher and his associates left
last Saturday for Philadelphia, going
by way of Spokane. The matter OF
financing the company will be taken
up at once and Mr.. Gallagher expects
to return to Wallace in about two
weeks with all arrangements complet'
Ell to equip the property and begir
more extensive development work.

Mr.. McWade has apparently been a
very busy man since his arrival in
this city. He has conferred with union
officials, and also with most of the
mine managers. Some of these he
will probably meet today. He has
visited Mullan, Burke, Kellogg and
Nine Mile, and in most cases made
personal Investigations of working
conditions at the mines, questioning
employees he chanced to meet. It Is
expected that having completed his in
vestigatons he will invite the mine
managers to meet him in a body. Mr..
McWade is a man Of wide experience
in dealing with labor problems. There
has been no intimation as to what his
recommendations will be in connection
with the case in hand, and 1t Is not
likely that any information will be OBJ
tainable until he has formally and
officially submitted his conclusions to
the parties directly concerned.

MAJESTIC MINING CO.
CAPITAL IS INCREASED
WILL DEVELOP THROUGH SALE
OF TREASURY STOCK
NEW DIRECTORS.

An important meeting of stockhold-
ers of the Majestic Mining company
was held at the Office of Therrett
Towles last Saturday evening. In ad-
dition to the election of officers for the
ensuing year, the meeting was called
to consider the proposal to increase
the capital stock of the company. Out
of the 100000 shares Of stock out
standing, 100000 shares were repre-
sented either in person or by proxy,
the number being we'll above the ne
cessary two thirds required to change
the capitalization. The original cap
ital of the Majestic company was ST.
O00,0 divided into 100000 shares OF
the par value of 81 EACH The propo-
sition submitted to the stockholders
was to change the capital to $375,o0o
divided into 100000 shares of the par
value of 25 cents each. The PROPOSE
ton was unanimously carried The
5OO,OO0 shares of stock thus added to
the treasury Of the company Will be
sold from time to time and in such
amounts as may be necessary to pro-
vide funds for carrying on develop
ment work. To meet immediate re-
auirements an assessment of mills
per share was levied payable August
1. This will clean UP all Indebtedness
and leave a substantial surplus for
development.

The following directors were elect
ed: J. L. Courtwright, w. F. Harris

The Majestic company owns group
of 10 patented claims lying northeast
of Burke. A shaft on the vein. about
25 feet deep, shows carbonate ore hav-
ing a good value in silver. The vein
has now been encountered several
hundred feet below and is being eX-
plored by drift with most encouraging
results. The North Yakima stockhold-

The labor situation in this country
