ST. LAWRENCE.
Work Confined to Development, Which
Is Opening Much Ore.

Henry NJ. Lancaster, of Saltese,
manager of the st. Lawrence Copper
Mining company, accompanied by Mrs.
Lancaster, is registered at the Sam
uels. Mr.. Lancaster states that the
operations Of the company are now
confined to development work, which
is progressing very satisfactorily. The
raise from the lower tunnel has been
advanced to within 40 feet of the up
per tunnel, the total distance when
ccnnection Is made being 200 feet The
raise has been in ore practically all
the way, and at this time little drift
ing Is being done from it on very
promising body of ore. In the drift
from which the raise is being made
there is ore in varying quantities for
400 feet and 1t is proposed to extend
this drift east There is much ore in
the upper workings and development
work is adding to the amount in sight.
The company Is employing IA men and
it is probable that operations may
continue to be confined to develop
ment until there is an Improvement in
the copper market and reduction In
the cost of transportation.

DOUGLAS MINING CO.
WATTS FOR RAILROAD
OFFICERS ADVISE STOckHoLD
@ERS OF EXPENSE OF MAIN
TANNING PROPERTY.

The Douglas Mining company has
found that it takes money to keep a
mine shut down as well as to operate
it. Although the mine is in excellent
condition, having large amount Of
ore blocked out and every facility for
found impossible to interest capital in
the property owing to the failure of
the railroad company to complete the
branch line UP Pine creek. However,
there are indications that this condi-
ton will be improved at no distant
date. Apparently a we'll founded re-
port was heard this week that the
railroad will be extended this spring
to the forks of the creek, which will
bring 1t within three and a half miles
of the Douglas An improved zinc
market will come with the readjust-
ment of business and industrial con-
ditions of the country, which will
make mining propositions of Pine
creek more attractive to capital and
actual demand for the mineral product
of that rich section. While waiting
for Improvement in the mining situa-
zion, the directors of the Douglas Min
ing company are protesting the inter
ests of the stockholders by preserving
the property and keeping it in shape
for production when conditions are ia
vorable to either dispose of 1t or OPP
crate the mine themselves. The fol-
loving circular letter which has just
been issued to the stockholders, ex-
plains the situation:

PRODUCTION OF GOLD
N SAOsH0NE COUNTY
TAKES FIRST PLACE AMONG THE
COUNTIES OF sTATE-HELD
POSITION BEFORE

shoshone county last year earned a
new distinction as a mineral producer
| 1t was the discovery Of gold on Pri-
ehard creek in 1883 that marked the
beginning Of mining in what was des-
tined to be the famous Occur d'Alene
district. The news of the discovery
attracted thousands Of men to the new
diggings, and Eagle creek, Prichard
creek and Trail creek, with their trib-
utapy gulches, proved wonderfully
rich, and for a few years following
the production of gold in Shoshone
county reached a large figure, quartz
mining also making substantial ad-
dition to the output. AT that time
Pierce City was also in Shoshone
county, and although the cream had
been skinned by the early miners, the
old camp was still producer of con-
siderable gold No records We're kept
in those days and the production is
therefore a matter of speculation, but
the amount ran we'll into the millions.
For three or four years following the
discovery on Prichard creek Shoshone
regained the position it had
held in the early sos when mines of
ORC Elmo and Pierce City made 1t the
banner gold producer of Idaho. The
decline of gold mining on the North
Side was coincident with the discovery
OF the lead deposits on the South Side
and the fame of the county as a gold
producer was destined to be eclipsed
by its output of silver and lead. For
many years the record for lead and sill
yer production in Idaho, and in more
recent years zine, has been held by
Shoshone county, In fact about 80 pei
cent of these metals produced in Ida

Increase Demand.

In reply to Senator Pittman's de-
claration that silver miners wanted a
stabilized price, Senator Thomas of
Colorado informed him that he need
not worry about the melting down of
$50, 100000 dollars; that If they went
to India as he (Senator Pittman)
stated, it would mean that they would
not come back and the demand for
silver would only become more crlti-
cal
Developments 0 fthe past II months
have corroborated the attitude of
Senators Smoot and Thomas. !.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1919-03-27
Smoot Was Right.

Reference is made to the statement
made by Senator Smoot of Utah,
when the Pittman act was passed in
the senate April Is, 1918. The Utah
senator at that time declared, despite
Senator Pittman's own opinion that
this act might benefit silver compan-
les, that he entertained the contrary
view that it was of no advantage to
these interests because these operat :
ora were convinced that silver would
bring a much higher price in an I'M
restricted market. Should the gov
eminent follow a hands-off policy"
said Senator Smoot "the price would
advance to $1.29 an ounce. The Unit
ed States is in no shape to allow the
export of it's gold and neither are our
allies. All they have got they must
keep. Although we have one fourth
of the gold in the world, we have none
too much"

The PRICE OF SILVER
UNJUST TO PRODUCERS
LIMIT SHOULD BE REMOVED
FOREIGNER MAKES A
BIG PROFIT.

In somewhat remarkable docu-
ment on the silver situation issued
this week by the Silver League OF
America, says the Financial Review
bf New York, the statements are
made that the government price OF
$1.01R an ounce Originally SD was
intended and regarded by the law
makers at Washington as war pen-
iod measure that this price did not
particularly benefit silver companies
of this country because they could
obtain higher prices in the opel mar
ket; and that a continuance of the
present government price Is prevent
ing free operations in the business e
la tons of Chinese and East Indian
merchants with those of this country
The suggestion is made by the league
that either government price restrlc-
tons be removed so that a frac and
as they think, higher price may re-
suit or that the government advance
the fixed price to $1.25.

Again Ranks First in Gold.

But history seems to repeat itself In
mining as we'll as in political and So
cial affairs, and again we are remind
ed that what happens twice will hap.
pen three times. Twice Shoshone
county has held first place as a gold
producer and now we are told by no
less an authority than Robert N. Bell
state mine inspector, that last yeal
Shoshone county again won first place
as a producer of the yellow metal. The
wealth that has long been securel,
locked in the gravel of Prichard creek
we'll known to the early day miners,
but which baffled their efforts to re-
cover, is now being dragged from its
hiding place by a monster stee
dredge. The success that has attended
this enterprise opens large possibili-
ties for increased gold production for
many years. This county Is credited
with 100000 in gold production in
1918. In recording this gold achieve
ment in this county Mr.. Bell has this
to say of the Yukon Gold company in
his annual report:

Dredge on Prichard Creek.

ard creek. THIS modern dredging
plant was completed late in 1917 and
enjoyed full years operation with an
important yield of gid bullion, which,
added to the byproduct gold derived
from the final treatment of Occur
dAlene lead ores, gives that famous
mineral county quite a desirable
showing in total gold output; in fact
the total gold yield of this county ag-
gregating 14,62S ounces for the first
time in the mining story, gives it first
rank in the gold producing counties Of
the state, as we'll as in lead, silver
and zinc.
THE Yukon company's holdings
cover several miles of Prichard creek
bottom that has been systematically
tested by drilling and Is known to car
ry good values in coarse gold that re-
sisted all former and older fashioned
methods Of treatment by reason of
the flat grade of the creek and the
depth of the gravel. 1t was freely
pi edicted by old timers that this de-
post could not be successfully worked
by dredging by reason of the rough
bed rock, but 1t appears that plenty
of steel, intelligently directed and
backed by ample electrical power, has
overcome these Difficult
ties and established what promises to
be an important and steady added
source of primary gold supply for Ida
ho The district is to be congratulate
ed on the enterprise falling into such
substantial hands.
This dredge is of all steel con-
struction with a hull of 100x40xS feet
deep. The bucket line is of mangan-
ese steel closely connected and the
buckets have a capacity of seven cubic
feet each and dump at the rate of 20
per minute, and in spite of the rather
heavy ground handled. the plant has
given excellent satisfaction. 1t is
