President Wilson Among the Miners as
Seen by Noted Editor and
Mining Engineer

by CiianSS L. "A IlChdTu, OF Sar
Francisco, editor of the Mining ant
Scientific Press, was in Kellogs
when 1t was announced that Presi.
dent Wilson would speak at Coeur
d'Alene and he Joined the large num-
Der who went from the mining dis
trict to hear him. Mr.. Richard tells
Of his trip in the Press of September
~, and his narrative has so much To-
cal color that it is reproduced by the
Miner, with the exception of his re-
sumo Of the Presidents speech:
Kellogg to Occur d'AIene.
On September ~, the president of
the United States delivered an ad-
dress on the league of nations at
Occur d'Alene, town in the mining
region of the same name that has
made Idaho famous. / happened to
be on a visit to the Bunker Hill and
Sullivan mine, at Kellogg, and eager
ly awaited myself of the opportunity
to hear the president afforded by the
courtesy of my host, Stanly A. Easton,
the manager of the mine.
Occur d'Alene is AZ miles from Kel-
logg, Idaho; so this is a story of
motor journey and speech. The
motor journey comes first, but the
reader can skip it, if he wishes, al
though / could not.
1t was dark and raining heavily
when we started at $40 a. M, bow
ling along the cemented pavement
that forms new feature of the set
element clustering around the por-
tai of the Kellogg adit, which is the
main entry to the workings of the
Bunker Hill mine, now $500 feet be-
low the surface The several mill
buildings and the smelter were '1it
up like a church" as we passed these
evidences of industrial activity that
has made the Bunker Hill the pre-
mier lead producer of the world In
1917 the Bunker Hill & Sullivan
Mining & Concentrating Company
produced $4,000 tons of lead and
100000 ounces of silver, the ag-
gregate value of this output being
s9,5O0,0O0. Soon we were off the ce-
ment pavement and on a macadamiz-
ed road, but despite frequent puddles
the going was good as we splashed
through the rain down the sandy
flats Of the south fork of the Occur
d'Alene river, crossing the railway
from Spokane at Cataldo, a name re-
calling the Jesuit fathers who We're

ed the mission, mile below Cataldo |
Father Ravalli and the other French |
erected this wooden san
ctuary in 1916 and from it extended |
their beneficent activities among the
Indians. The dawn was now break
ing through the rain clouds and we
could see the old Mission silhouetted |
against the dark wet pine-woods of
a mountainous background. For |
forty years the Mission was the |
head of navigation on the Occur |
d'Alene lake and river, and the point |
of departure for exploration into the
mineral hinterland now made famous 1
by such mining centers as Wallace, |
Wardner, Burke, Mullan and Murray.

and with its warworn parts already
beginning to rust, the Big Bertha
which startled the world by its long
range fire upon Paris last spring, has
been left to its fate in an old German
artillery yard in West Prussia.
According to information reaching
the Third Army. the famous big gun
is lying in the open air. protected
from the eyes of the curious only by
a board fence. Other guns Of large
caliber are also within the yard,
few German soldiers acting as a
guard.
Discharged German soldiers say
that the dismantled parts Of the Big
Bertha began arriving at the artillery
park soon after the signing Of the
armistice. Portions Of the gun still
lie on the railroad cars which trans
ported il from France. but the barrel
has been placed on the ground.
All the range-fnding and other
DELICATE instruments were removed
before the piece was transported. and
the soldiers understood that these
had been taken to the headquarters
Of Field Marshal Won Hindenburg.
