vENTILAT|NC SYSTEMS
IN TWO GREAT MINES
EXAMINED BY STATE MINE IN
SPECTOR MINING OUT
LOOK IN STATE.

While in the city last week in con-
ert n. Bell state mine inspector, also
visited other mines of the district,
which included the Hunter, Morning
and Bunker Hill & Sullivan. His par
ticular purpose in going to the Morn
ing was to inspect the elaborate sys-
tenn of ventilation which has been in
stalled by the Federal company at
great expense and also to determine
the condition and results of the fire
that has recently caused some trouble
In the upper workings In discussing
the situation at the Morning, Mr. Bell
said:
Fire Extinguished; Air Good
The fire is believed to be extin-
gushed but is still discharging con-
siderable carbon dioxide gas, which is
being pumped out through a big air
pipe and exhaust fan and discharged
into the old 800 upcast air shaft. Oxy-
gen helmets We're successfully used by
cementing and sealing the lower level
connections below the 500 west drift
where the fire occurred stretch OF
very wet ground several hundred feet
long separates the main station and
shaft workings from the fire site, pre-
venting its spreading further east to-
wards the active part Of the mine.
"The new ventiating system at the
modern SiroccO fans, one of 10000 and
the other of 10000 cubic feet of air per
minute capacity. They are giving ex-
cellent satisfaction, forcing strbng
current of fresh air down to the new
2OO0 level and stope, and greatly
improving operating conditions

the installation of a 4O,000-fo ma
chine to boost along the current, which
is expected to be installed within 80
days, and from the improvement al
ready shown these big wind jammer
machines promise to absorb all the ex-
cess temperatures in the lower part of
the mine and prove a great advantage
to the health and working efficiency
of the men employed in these deep
levels"
Great Future for Mining in Idaho.
In common with the Coeur d'Alene
district, Mr.. Bell says that all other
mining sections of Idaho are being
held back through the high cost Of
labor and mining supplies, and also to
the shortage of labor. He expects to
see a marked improvement in the lat
ter respect after few months when |
the harvest season viii be over and

able extent that the attitude assum-
ed by e. r. Day, manager of the Her.
cules, toward the committee which
called upon him to discuss working
conditions in the mine, is largely re-
sponsible for calling the strike. 1t is
stated that Mr.. Day curtly informed
the committee that If they were not
satisfied with the way the Hercules
was being run, they could call at the
Office and get their time. 1t may be
that there were extenuating circum-
stances that prompted this abrupt and
ili-advised reply, but it is hardly to
be expected that the committee would
take them into consideration. They
left him feeling that they had not re-
ceived fair considera ton. Their re-
sentm ent was shared by the men they
represented and probably found ex-
preston in the order to strike.
Mines Will Close.
If the men go out on strike tomor-
row morning, and there is no reason
to believe they will not, the mines
will simply close down AS a matter
of fact, it is believed that the order to
5trke has in a sense brought meas
ure of relief to the operators. Some
of the companies will be money ahead
by closing, while all will be relieved
OF the uncertainty that has been
hanging over them for months. The
old and steady employees, the married
men who have their homes, and the
business community will be the real
rufferers.

TOP SOIL
[continued From Page one.1

The entire channel of the White
water has been cut since the last flow,
and many of the hills about Richmond
left in the rough form of great piles
of dirt have been channeled down oy
water. Some idea OF the glaciers
work may be obtained by looking at
the gorge of Whitewater, sixty feet
deep and 600 feet wide. Only two
miles above Richmond does this great
gorge reach down to bedrock, or the
original surface rock which was here
before the glaciers came, and it has
cut only a few feet Into bedrock in
the Richmond gorge.
Prof. Hole, who supplied most Of
the data for this article, once tried
to estimate the time since the last
glacial flow by computing the time it
mas required for the Whitewater TO
cut its present gorge. But the rate
of the waters work was too uncertain.
and his computations ranged from
1000 to $4,000 years, with the proba-
bility that the latter figure is more
nearly right.
History Dim-very Dim
Before the glaciers, Of course, the
geological history of Wayne county
has been dim-very dim. The county
was several times submerged in the
great shallow sea, which covered most
of the North American continent, and
during that time hundreds of feet Of
rock were laid down, in which were
preserved the fossils Of the millions
Of tiny animals which lived in that
sea. 1t was raised and became a
low mountain range, which the sue
cessive glaciers ground down to a
fat plain.
Then the rains fell over the bare,
SCARED land left by the glacier, vege
tation, came. the top soil rotted down
into warm fine loan in the course of
thousands of years, and the 'county's
surface became richer and richer.
Then, in the half minute or so repre-
scented by the last 100 years, settlers
came. SO that our county's fertility
is really partially borrowed
Inhabited Before.
This is not the first time Wayne
county was fit for habitation. how
ever. According to all the evidence,
the time between the third and the
fifth flow was much longer than that
between the fifth one and the present
time. For the soil had time to get
deeper, vegetation richer, and the
streams to develop much more fully,
in that time than they have since.
This suggests a question which
scientists have been often asked: Is
it possible that the present time is
only a space between two glacial flows
and that invasion by the great north
ern icesheets, crushing out every bit
of surface life as they move, and bury
ing all our present civilization under
hundreds of feet of ice, is again pos
sible? No. they say, not without some
change, which would make the air
colder But there is evidence that
just such a change did take place be-
tween at least three of these flows,
perhaps hundreds of thousands of
years ago, and that made the glacial
invasion possible.
