Suggestion for Camping Trip

Buy a bottle of Chamberlain's
Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy before
leaving home. AS a rule it cannot
be obtained when on a hunting, fish
ing OF prospecting trip. Neither can
it be obtained while on board the
cars or steamships and at such times
and places it is most likely needed.
The safe way is to have it with you.

SILVER AGAIN CLIMBS
TO NEW HIGH RECORD
SHIPMENTS OF GOLD TO INDIA
FAIL TO KEEP DOWN
WHITE METAL.

New record highest prices for silver
in the history of the universe were es-
tablished this week when the London
market Did S41S pence per ounce, Brit
ish standard, according to Financial
Review. This would be $1.S5A per
ounce were British exchange at par.
The New York price was about $1.S5,
low British exchange.
The new prices further initiate the
premium on European and other sill
yer coins over gold money. A thous-
and silver shillings of the British
empire are now worth 1880 shillings
in gold money.
China is still a heavy silver buyer
direct through San Francisco, as well
as through London, but not at the pro-
digious rates of the latter half Of 1919.
On the other hand demand through
London and Europe has swollen. In
dia has been out of the open silver
market since May, but the new de-
mand in London. it is rumored, is not
entirely for orient settlements Rath-
er it is understood a large part of the
new European demand is in connec-
ton with stabilizing European new
silver coinage, and beginning a silver
backing for some of the huge paper
issues Of the European (and other)
powers.
The u. S. treasury ruling to ship
treasury silver dollars to China to cut
down the Chinese premium over the
American dollar has had the desired
effect already The Shanghai tael is
now down to 1854 with 1852 quoted
for March. American merchants had
to pay $1.62 for a Shanghai dollar
when the U. s. government in Decem-
Der decided to dump u. S. silver in
China for the double purpose Of help
ing American exchange on China and
for temporarily checking a runaway
silver market The federal reserve
board reports 19,92S,9S4 silver dollars
were shipped to China in December.
It is expected that India will short
y reenter the open market for silver.
The experiment of trying to keep
Down the price of silver by shipping
gold to India has proved a failure.

Contracts Let for 1000 Feet of Work
in Lower Tunnel.

Contracts for 1000 feet Of tunnel on
the Montana Idaho copper property
were let last Saturday to Norman
Olive of Mullan. according to the
statement of w. j. Kirby. secretary
of the Idaho Montana Copper COM
pany The property is located near
Adair. on the summit
The lower tunnel has now been
driven 5000 feet and is to be extended
an additional 5000 feet to reach its OBJ
jective. This will give a face depth
of 100 feet below the surface and
about 1000 feet below the bottom of
the old Monitor shaft. The old Mon
itor workings yielded a considerable
quantity of copper ores a number of
years ago from the shaft operations
and to give this ore body a thorough
exploration at depth a great task was
by the officers. This cali
ed for an S0OO-foot tunnel to secure a
depth of 1900 feet The work has
gone steadily ahead with encouraging
results and it is the purpose Of the

BIG GOLD STRIKE IS
REPORT AT WARREN
MOTHER LODE is UNCOVERED
NEAR OLD PLACER
DIeeINes.

The mother lode Of the Old Warrens
camp has been uncovered, according
to information from Grangewlle. ore
assaying $500 to the ton in gold has
been found in ledge Iaceable for
five miles and as a result much ex-
citement exists among the central
Idaho prospectors.
The story as related by the Grange
Vile Free Press is as follows
"A rich gold strike was recently
made in the Warren district by Wal
ter v Martin and q. p. Adams, after
months of prospecting according to
apparently reliable information re-
ceived in Grangeville this week.
Assays of ore taken from the dis
trict viii go $500 in gold to the ton,
it is reported The discovery was
made on Washington creek, "A tribu-
tary of Warren creek, about two miles
from the town of Warren.
'The ledge, it is said. is the mother
lode of the camp running through
the property for a distance of five
claims. or $500 feet The tracing OF
nch float and hard work brought forth
what the placer miners left behind 20
years ago The rich stringers and
feeders Of the Warren camp are at
tributed TO this ledge. IT is thought,
and at depth the big ledge may widen
to eight feet. Great expectations are
hoped by the owners to be realized.
this being the richest strike made in
the Warren district, and a 15OO-foot
tunnel will tap the vein at 900 feet
depth"

HEARING FOR NABOB
RECEIVER ON FRIDAY
JUDGE DUNN WILL DECIDE IS
SUE FOR PINE CREEK
MINE.

The application Of J. A. JohnstC II,
of Spokane, for the appointment of a
receiver for the Nabob Consolidated
Mining company. owning a group OF
valuable mining claims on Pine creek,
| is to be renewed on February before
Judge II. y. Dunn, sitting in the place
Of Judge W. w Woods, who is absent
from the state. according to notice
served on the Nabob company by
John p Gray and James A. Wayne,
attorneys for the plaintiff
The hearing scheduled for February
o is a renewal of the application made
on December 9 before Judge Woods,
at which time the application was de-
MED on the showing of the NabOb
company that efforts were then being
made to liquidate the Indebtedness of
the company with fair prospects Of
success. The court at that time in
denying the application did so with
out prejudice 10 a renewal of the ap-
lplcation in the event that the defend
ant did not promptly and within a
limited length OF time materially re-
duce its Indebtedness and improve its
financial condition. 1t is now charged
that approximately 40 days have
elapsed since the former hearing and
that the Nabob company has in no
way changed its financial condition
and made no payments upon any Of
its Indebtedness. 1t is also charged
that the company is insolvent and in
debted to divers persons, associations
and corporations in a sum exceeding
SIS. 900 and without funds or available
assets with which to meet or pay
such Indebtedness.
Supplemental Complaint.
The second application is accom-
panied by the filing of an amended
and supplemental complaint in which
liz is alleged that from the evidence
introduced by the defendant in the
former hearing, that its only liquid
tangible assets at that time amounted
to S2O4S9 in cash in addition to three
paetnted and 21 unpatented mining
claims That the Stewart Mining
company, or its assign, the American
Smelling & Refining company, held
"a mortgage upon all of the defeno-
ants property in the sum of 100000
and that in addition thereto the de-
PENDANT owed the smelling company
approximately 1000 and the Stewart
Mining company between fifteen and
sixteen thousand dollars 1t is also
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1920-02-05

charged that the testimony further
showed that the Nabob company was
indebted to divers laborers, formerly
in its employ, who had filed liens up
on its property and had started pro-
geedings in court for the foreclosure
Of such liens, in a sum Of more than
$500, the further sum of $4,000 for 30
day penalties claimed under the Ida
no statutes and for the further sum of
$500 claimed as attorneys fees in
such suits. That the defendant has
also owed various supply houses for
supplies and materials furnished it
prior to the closing down of its min
ing property in the further sum Of
$500.
Directors Plan to Borrow.
The application also recites that it
was shown that the only plan which
the board of directors had devised for
the retiring of such indebtedness, or
any part thereof, was the borrowing
from the Lippert Investment company
of the sum of $4,000, which it propos-
ed to secure by pledging 100000 shares
of its treasury stock and to increase
its Indebtedness to the Stewart Min
ing company by borrowing of addi-
tional money from such corporation,
and further tentative proposition to
borrow $4,000 from the Fidelity Ma
ton bank of Spokane.
The stock of the defendant COM
pany during the month of September
1919, it is alleged, averaged II cents
per share but that owing to the mis-
management of the present board of
directors, the compelled or enforced
closing Of its mining operations and
to the many law suits for wages and
materials, that the market value of
the stock has decreased to six cents
per share.
1t is also charged that the Nabob
Consolidated Mining company has
never had a legal board of directors
from the date of its organization;
that upon the organization of the Ma
bob company. 500 shares of stock
were taken by the Stewart Mining
company in certificates of 100 shares
each. that thereafter the Stewart
company at all times designated from
among its directors five persons to
serve as directors of the Nabob COM
pany and caused to he delivered or
transferred to such designated per-
sons one of such certificates of 100
shares Of the defendant corporation.
