Senator BOrah
and the President

Senator Borah has been guilty
of no affront to the president in
asking to be excused from attend
ing the dinner in the White House
to which the committee on foreign
relations has been invited, the
Spokesman Review to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. The COM
mittee holds regular sessions at
the capitol and for the past two or
three years, when the war clouds
were lowering over the country,
its members would have welcomed
an opportunity to confer with the
president in conformity with the
constitutional provision. But they
had no such opportunity, nor did
the senate as a whole. Now that
he has completed the negotiation
of a constitution for league of
nations which must be accepted
by the senate in order to make 1t
binding upon this country, the
president proposes to make the
foreign relations committee his
guests at the White House for the
purpose of overcoming the oppo-
sition which he knows exists.
Senator Borah is probably as well
informed on official etiquette as
the Spokane paper. He says that
the discussion at the White house
would be confidential, that what
transpired could be divulged only
by the president, and he therefore
does not desire to be placed In the
possession of information which
he can not use in opposing the
league. He makes his position
clear, and in declining the Invita-
ton he shows no disrespect to the
president. In selecting the peace
commission the president ignored
the senate, and sought no advice
from the senate or the foreign re-
lations committee in framing the
conditions governing the league of
nations. The senate Is coordin-
ate branch of the government, 1t
is not subordinate to the chief ex-
ecutive. Senator Borah Is clear
ly within his rights and is to be
commended for maintaining the
dignity and independence of his
high position.

In these days when some mines are

ing the long, long trail, it is real
joy to the Miner to encounter min

About the middle of last September

operating at the mouth of Granite
creek, near Murray. suspended oper-
ations, although the property was
rapidly approaching the productive
stage. But high wages coupled with
inefficiency, together with the high
cost of all supplies, and the difficulty
in getting machinery delivered, forced
the company to abandon operations
altogether until conditions became
more favorable That time Is near at
hand, in the opinion Of Charles G..
Taylor, manager of the company, who
ming and left for the mine yesterday.
He was accompanied by his brother,
John II. Taylor, president Of the COM
pany. Mr.. Taylor believes that 1t will
not be long until mining conditions
will approach the normal, and while
he does not anticipate prices and
wages to return to the former level
he does feel that they will reach a
point that will permit the resumption
of development, and this feeling Is
shared by the stockholders of the
company to whom the matter was
referred. There is considerable pre-
liminary work to be done before re.
suming under ground work, and Mr.
Taylor goes to the mine to give thi
his personal attention.

RICHM D.
President and Manager Makes Inter
esting Report.

According to the report of j. H.
Codd, president and manager OF the
Richmond Mining. Milling & Reduc-
ton company, eight carloads Of 10 per
cent copper ore will be shipped this
month, five of which have already
been dispatched to the smelter at Ia
coma. Five carloads were shipped in
January and a less amount in De-
cember. due to the refusal of the Ana
conda company to receive any more
ore on account of it's being frozen
when it reached the smelter. Discuss
ing the company's operations Mr.,
Codd said:
"Ore opened recently on the 2OO-foot
level has been followed 20 feet by
drift. The body is six feet wide and
has a copper content Of about 10 per
cent. Ore is being drawn from the
$50 and 2OO-foot levels west and the
1S0- foot level east. The tramway has
been operated without incident since
its equipment with new cable several
months ago.
"a shaft started on the tunnel Level
has attained depth of 25 feet and

Will Attend Meeting
Interstate-Callahan

Donald A. Callahan, of this city,
left yesterday morning for Chi
cago and after a brief visit there
with his family he will proceed
to New York to attend the meet
ing of the board of directors OF
the Consolidated Interstate-Calla-
han Mining company, of which he
is a member. His brother, James
f. Callahan, who is also a director
and the largest stockholder in the
company, will also attend the
meeting, leaving here a few days
later. Before leaving Mr.. Calla-
han expressed the opinion that
the directors would decide to close
the New York office of the COM
pany and designate wallace as the
location of the main office. He
also said that the meeting might
elect three directors to act until
the annual meeing of the stock
holders, although this might be
deemed unnecessary on account OF
the short time they would have
to serve, the date of the annual
meeting being April a. The three
vacancies We're caused by the
resignation of the directors repre-
senting the American Metal COM
pany. They are c. M. Loeb, Otto
Sussman and Julian B. Beatty, the
last named having been secretary
of the company, all of New York.

decided advantage to build roads while
the ground is moist, that it makes
more permanent and durable roadbed

ing of the Lookout road has long been
desired by the people of this county.
The change will result in making the

-0HAT THE Idaho Mining assoei-
alton has proved of great bene-
fit to the mining industry of
Idaho and therefore of direct
advantage to the state, and deserves
the support of all who are directly or
the opinion of those who attended the
ennual meeting of the association at
Boise last week. This opinion was
emphasized by the large representa-
ton from the mining counties of the
state, the report of work accomplished
by the association during the past
year, and the unusual interest mani
tested by the people of Boise in the
various features of the meeting. There
was evidence that the people of the
state removed from mining opera
tions, and who at times have display
ed rather hostile attitude to the mi
ming industry, are beginning to appre-
ciate it's Importance and far reaching
benefits, and that their attitude shows
tion in promoting the prosperity
of mining as we'll as that of other in
dustries of the state. This is a condi-
ton greatly to be desired, and If the
association accomplished that and
nothing more, it's organization and
its support would be amply justified.
National Legislation.
But the association does more. Dur
ing the war, when congress and the
war industries board were engaged In
framing laws and outlining policies to
insure an ample supply of minerals
which were vital to the success of the
war, it was necessary for the mineral
producers Of the west to have repre-
sentatives at Washington to protect
the interests Of the miner and to rem
der patriotic assistance in solving the
many problems confronting the gov
ernment in connection with war min
erals During all this difficult period
the Idaho Mining association kept a
representative at Washington, as did
mining organizations in all the west
ern states, and most effective work
was accomplished not only in behalf
OF the mining industry, but in assist
ing the government itself. 1t is not
likely that our country will again have
a similar experience, but there will al
WAYS be legislation under considera-
ton, both national and state, in which
the miner is directly concerned, and
an organization such as the Idaho Mi
ming association becomes the spokes-
man for the industry, enabling it to
get a hearing and to make it's influ-
ence felt in legislation.

CUTS BIG STRONG VEIN
SHOWS MUCH LEAD SILVER AND
COPPER oRE-cRosscUT
TO NORTH VEIN.

Wesley Everett, manager Of the
Amazon Dixie Mining company at
Sildix, Montana, was in the city this
week to attend the meeting of the
Yellowstone Trail association. When
he left the mine Monday he said the
drills had evidently penetrated the
vein in the crosscut running south
from the bottom of the shaft and II
was with unusual interest that he re-
turned to the mine yesterday morning
to inspect the results since his depart
ure over the telephone he described
to the Miner the showing disclosed,
which indicates that large ore body
is not far away. The crosscut yester-
day had extended s feet into the vein
from the foot wall side and the drills
for the next round did not reach
the hanging wall, thus proving the
width of the vein II or 13 feet ana
possibly wider. The exposed part or
the vein for eight feet has lead-silVer
and copper ore, galena and chalco-
pyrite, scattered all through it, and
while the ore could not be called COM
mercial, it is nevertheless splendid
showing. The vein Is stronger and
less broken and disturbed than in the
upper levels and Mr.. Everett expressed
much satisfaction with the showing.
The point Of intersection is HOO feet
from the surface and 4lO below the
main working tunnel, and 325 feet
from the bottom of the shaft.
Will Soon Drift.
| AS soon as the hanging wall Is
reached, Mr.. Everett says he will be-
gin drifting and he expresses the
opinion that he will not have far to
go to find commercial ore. This vein
Is the one upon which all develop
ment has been done, but the Amazon :
Dixie has another vein of great prom
ise which was cut in the main tunnel
upon which nothing in the way OF de-
velopment has been done, although II
contains good values in lead and Sill
yer both where cut in the tunnel and
on the surface. This vein Is north OF
the shaft and crosscut was started
from the bottom Of the shaft to II
when the south crosscut was started
Work in this crosscut was resumed
this week, which has been advanced
about ESQ feet and leaves about 1O(
feet to the vein.

cid explanation and pertinent COM
tion to the large audience. The views
included scenes on the surface and
underground at the Bunker Hill &
Sullivan, ,HeCla and Hercules mines,
showing wonderful hosting equip
ment powerful pumps, men at work
with machine drills, the system of
timbering, ore trains, and in fact a
complete presentation of the many ac-
tivities that combine to make up the
operations of a great mine. Mr.. Clarks
views and lecture We're indeed educa-
tional, giving his hearers compre-
hensive insight to the workings of the
greatest industry of the state.
Photography of Idaho.
d. c. Livingston, professor of geol-
ogy in the state university, preceded
Mr.. Clark with an illustrated lecture
on the photography of Idaho, Last
ious mining sections of Idaho in quest
of rare minerals needed by the gov
ernment, and in connection with his
work he took many photographs in
remote sections of the state, showing
the physical characteristics of the
country visited. He presented re-
markable collection of views. which
with his lecture proved wonderfully
interesting and instructive.
Hecla First Aid Team.
An exhibition of first aid to the in
jured given in the lobby of the Owy-
hee hotel by team from the Hecla
mine proved Of great interest, as evil
denced by the crowd that packed the
floor of the lobby and the balcony.
Members of the team were f. F. Tor
kelson, Walter Milliron, e. o. Well
man, George Evans and Charles w.
Bailey. The work of the team in car
ing for injured men excited the great
est admiration, and gave an insight
to the great attention that is given
by the mining companies in enforcing
safety first rules and in rendering i'm
mediate service to the injured by
trained employees. The work of the
Hecla team won the highest commen-
dation, particularly in the full team
event in which a man having a brok-
en- back was treated and carried on
an mprovised stretcher. Boise physi-
clans who examined the work of the

Fl. B. Kingsbury, who Is stock
holder in the Old Hickory Mining
company, visited the property last
Sunday and returned with about so
pounds of lead-silver ore as tangi-
BILE evidence of the showing now in
the face of the drift. He said there
was about a foot of ore such as he
