fuse employment to the l. w. w. Is
universally commended While the
companies are Of course now short Of
men, the fact that the "wobblies" are
out will attract the better class of
men, a considerable number of whom
are now coming in seeking employ
ment, and when the harvest season Is
over 1t Is expected that all the mines
will soon be able to secure normal
forces.
The policy adopted by the Morning,
Hunter and National in refusing en-
ployment to members of the l. w. w.
will be adopted by all other mines of
the district. It is reported that few
OF the red card men were let out at
the Burke mines yesterday.

leave about July 20 for the company's
property on the Clearwater. He will
be accompanied by Paul Johnson, who
has gone ahead with four horses. In
stead of leaving the railroad at Rivu-
let Mont, as has been his custom, Mr.
johnson will take the horses to Lolo
Springs, Mont, where he will be join
ed by Mr.. Fable, and from which
place they will proceed across the di-

through a wild and rugged country
and without a trail. They will pro-
ceed down the creek to the mouth of
Moose creek and thence up Moose

in decision of the supreme court
confirming the decision of the lower
court favorable to the independence
company. Mr.. Fable says no work is
contemplated this season other than
assessment, and in doing this work the
creek channel will be cleared Of OBJ

BUILD MILL At LIBBY
FOR lUKENS.AAzEL CO.
COEUR D'ALENE MILL MAN TO
BE IN CHARGE OF CON-
STRUCTiON.

Oscar Nordquist, who has been here
stockholders of the Old Hickory Min
ing company, states that he would
soon begin the construction of mill
of 200 tons capacity for the Lukens-
Hazel Mining company, near Libby,
Mont. He will leave in few days for
Salt Lake City. where plans for the
rangements made for the necessary
machinery and equipment Work on
the mill will begin at once upon his
return and he expects to have the mill
in operation before bad weather in the
fall. The company owns splendid
water right which will be utilized to
furnish power for all purposes. This
will require flume or pipe line $500
feet in length and will give head of
$50 feet. The water will be taken from
Granite creek.
Much Ore Blocked Out.
three tunnels and the ore shoot has
been proved 1900 feet long, said Mr.
Nordquist who adds that enough ore
is blocked out to keep the proposed
200-ton mill running for more than
two years. The ore is lead silver, zinc
and gold the concentrate values run
ming about 35 per cent lead, so ounces
silver and 81 in gold. The property Is
situated about 8 miles from Libby
with which it is connected by a good
wagon road on a water grade. The
company will utilize motor trucks in
delivering concentrates to the railroad
The mill will be constructed under the
personal supervision Of Mr.. Nordquist
and it is probable that he will have
the management of the entire prop
erty when the mill is completed.

MINES Of PINE CREEK
MUCH ORE IN SIGHT
NABOB MILL SOON IN OPERA
TlON-AMY-M Is
SOON TO START.

Theodore Brown, who during the
hull in mining is giving his attention to
the improvement of the Pine creek
wagon road on behalf of the county,
made brief visit to Wallace yester-
day. He reports the road in good con-
dition up to the Nabob mill and in fair
shape up to the Douglas and Consti-
tuition. The ground is too dry to do
much in the way of road work now,
and his efforts are confined chiefly to
removing loose rocks from the road
way. Mr.. Brown said there was little
new going on in the mining line on
Pine creek, but that when the tide
does turn, as it certainly will, there Is
no doubt that it will prove to be one
of the busiest and most prosperous
sections of the Occur dAlene district.
The mines are there with ore blocked
out, and all that is needed is a stable
metal market and railroad transporta-
ton. But even under the adverse con-
ditions, there is considerable develop
erty, the Nabob. will soon be shipping
concentrates. The 150-ton mill is now
practically completed, the machinery
has been installed and the plant will
soon be turned over for operation. Be-
sides the mill force, there are ~ men
working in the mine getting 1t in
shape for steady production.
Amy -MatchIess.
Manager Gus Smith, of the Amy
Matchless Mining & Milling company,
is preparing to begin mining opera
tions next month. A large amount of
development work has been done on
this property, including about 1000
feet of tunnel and a shaft 200 feet, all
of which has resulted in exposing
much lead and zinc ore. Some time
ago the management had under con-
sideration the construction of mill,
but whether this is included in the
present plans is not known. Consid-
erable ore has been shipped from the
property and large amount of milling
ore is now on the dump.
Other Operations.
Work is progressing on the Sidney
with most satisfactory results. Much
ore has been exposed in the main tun-
mel, and a shaft being sunk on the
ore shows steady improvement.
The International is working the
usual force driving a crosscut which
is understood to be nearing the vein.

on Importing Salts
Cause Senator to Act
Ru Spncin1 Correapondenr.

~ oPC0ANAA WI
TRENTON, July 23.-United States
Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen to-
day sent to Trenton a protest against
a Congressional measure which he
says will prohibit the importation of
potassium salts much needed by New
Jersey farmers. my attention has
been called to Bill No. 1870, intro
duced in the House of Representatives
by Mr.. Fordney, of Michigan" said
the senior New Jersey Senator.
This measure, if enacted into law,
would not only place a tariff on the
Importation of potassium salts but
would, in effect, prohibit their i'm
p~ortation and deny the farmers of our
country the opportunity of procuring
from the most available and cheapest
source, this material, so necessary for
the raising of foodstuffs.
"In New Jersey, which is preemi-
nently an agricultural state, the po-
tato growers use large quantities of
potassium salts. To penaliZe the
farmers for the benefit of the domestic
industry, as Is the intent of this bill,
Is, In my opinion, unwise and will
tend to place an excessive burden on
the farming interests of the country.
While / am committed to the prin-
ciple of the protective tariff, in such
a Ease as that under consideration, /
am unwilling to penalize our entire
population, as 1 believe that. in rails
ing prices on imperative necessities
public will not be benefited. This bill
not only raises the price of fertilizer
but, in the final analysis, 1t raises the
price of foodstuffs as well, at a time
when we are making every effort to
reduce it,

Plan Recognition as First
Citizens for War Work in n. J.

As an award for patriotic war
work, followed by continued interest
in public affairs during this. the re-
construction period, the authorities
intend to take suitable action which
will give recognition as First Citi-
zens' to men and women of New
Jersey who have become prominent
as the result of their activities.
This became known today. Ger
tain of the leading citizens in differ
emit cities, towns and villages of New
Jersey recently met in conference to
discuss ways and means OF selecting
those of the several communities
who, in their opinion, are most en-
titled to awards. Many Of those at
the meetings were in touch with af-
fairs It Washington during the war
and are still in close contact with
officials at the national capital. 1t
is very probable that a certificate of
some kind will be issued to those
selected for the coveted honors.
No details of the scope of the sur
vey of prominent residents of New
Jersey, the manner in which First
Citizens will be selected. or any
other details, can be published at
present, by request of those inter-
viewed upon the question. 1t was
said. however, that within a day or
two more definite facts will be avail
able.

ON SITE
FOR BUILDING
At WOODBRIDGE
To Condemn Property for the
Erection Of Memorial and
Municipal Building
sy Special coyr,,sonasnI.

WOODBRIDGE, July, 2s:-The
township commission, appointed for
the purpose of carrying on erection
of a memorial and municipal build
ing here. at its meeting on Monday
night decided to start condemnation
proceedings In order to secure the
property known as the Sons of Tenn
perance'' lot.
A resolution was first adopted
which read as follows:
Resolved, hat it is the opinion of
this commission that the most suit
able and desirable lot for the erection
of the memorial building is the lot
known as the Sons of Temperance
lot"
A second resolution was then pass
ed authorizing Township Attorney
Martin to commence condemnation
proceedings Immediately in order
that title might be obtained to this
desired property.
The Sons of Temperance lot con-
sists of one acre of ground at the
corner of Main street and Railway
avenue, facing the monument, and
was originally part of the Clynch
farm. About 1850 a number of
prominent men in the town formed
an organization known as the Sons
of Temperance and decided to pur-
ClidSe the plOC Oh ground Tor the pur-
pose of erecting a temperance hotel.
The plot was then purchased for
$1,000 from Christian Clynch. After
the money had been paid, it Is said,
the Sons of Temperance found they
had purchased the land from Mr..
Clynch when he only held O. life in
terest in it n hat their title was
worthless.
Shortly after selling the property
Mr.. Clynch went to California where
he remained for thirty years. A num-
Der of ear ago William George
Ruddy bought the plot for taxes but
the title was never cleared. The
township will now endeavor to ac-
quire title through condemnation pro-
ceedings.
The commission here which is
working for the memorial and mu-
nicipal building is composed of John
E. Breckenridge, chairman, Edward
l.. Gridley, secretary, David A. Brown,
Andrew A. r. Overgaard and Cor
ham L. Boynton.
A circular letter has been printed
which the commission is sending to
the residents of Woodbridge town
ship asking their financial support
in this undertaking. Par of the
funds for the erection of this building
will be raised by popular subscrip-
ton and a request Is made in the
letter thai donations be made with
in ten days after receipt of the let
ter.
