The purpose of the affair is to Gull
tivate a closer relationship between
the representatives of the mining in

and in order to make the occasion
thoroughly representative of these
elements, invitations have been issu-
ed to executive officers of all other
mines of the district; also to general

The fact that the Marsh company
since this ruling was made, has be

ing a petition in intervention has
created the impression that this ac-
tion was taken largely to accommo-
date THE Federal when 1T renewed its
application for am order to make the
raise from the Hecla workings. 1t
now appears that the Federal and the
Marsh are far from being i'm agree
ment regarding their respective rights
and that while the appearance of the
Marsh i'm the suit may assist the
Federal in the coming hearing, that
will be incidental ito the action of the
Marsh which has entered for the pur
pose of protecting its rights as against
both the Federal and Hecla.

Samples of Ore Show High Values in
Lead and Silver.
Large chunks of lead-silver ore
from the Chicago Boston displayed in
the office window of r. r. Pohhnan,
mining broker, ON Cedar street. have
attracted much attention during the
past week. These samples Of ore were
taken from the 200 level by julius
Goodrich, who visited the property
last week. He said that lit was quite
impossible ITO estimate the width of
the ore shoot, owing ito the cavcd con
dition of the drift, which however
was being it,pidly cleaned up The
ore exhibited wsls broken from an
immense chunk which was with diff
fculty brought to the surface. An av-
erage sample of the ore i'm Mr.. Pohl
mans window was assayed last
Tuesday and returned 81 ounces Of
silver and 1873 per cent lead. As the
work progresses and the people learn
more about Chicago Boston. the con-

inventory of an buildings, machinery,
material equipment and supplies of
every description owned by the Ma
tional Copper Mining company. This

far as the final disposition of the

for the purpose Of determining what
the company has on hand and its
value. The inventory being prepared
by Mr. Stratton will include every ar
ticle, its original cost and its value in
the market today as near as that can
be estimated. RumOrs have been
around that a meeting OF the

for a meeting is being cont eEnplated
at this time.

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT teicCw

other report says that the house COM
mittee on public lands has agreed to
report THE bill favoIably Evidently,
if these reports are correct, congress
men generally are becoming better
informed on conditions in the mining
sections of the west and are disposed
to give relief without the prolonged
and expensive hearings that usually
characterize THE enactment of such
laws Assessment exemption laws
were passed for the years during the
war, and also for last year, but in
each case the delay in getting action
ITO a great extent robbed the people
of the benefit. Last year particularly
it was late in the fall before the ex-
enption was finally passed, and the
uncertainty of its passage caused
many claim owners to perform their
annual labor under circumstances
that made it a read hardship and with
out material benefit to their holdings,
owing ITO the small amount of work
accomplished for the expenditure. 1t
is hoped that this mistake will not be
made by congress this year, and that
the bill win pass before adjournment
so that claim owners win he relieved
of suspense and uncertainty regard !
ing the matter.
Relief Needed This Year.
The conditions prevailing in the mi
ming districts of the west this year
render it more Important than ever
before that congress should promptly |
pass this relief measure. In the first |
place, the cost OF powder steel, tools
and provisions Of all kinds is so high
that the average claim owner finds
the purchase of them practically pro
hibhtive, while the high wages make
it impossible TO accomplish an amount
of work contemplated by the law or
with the expenditure.
Even under the most favorable condi-
tions. annual assessment work is

Iportance 50 far as the development Oh
ore bodies is concerned. Its eXactlon
is largely for the purpose of proving
good faith on the part of persons en-
tering upon the public lands, and the
passing of the exemption law will not
retard the development of new mines
to any appreciaible extent.
Labor Shortage.
But the matter of cost is not the
only obstacle in the way of perform
ing assessment work. In the Occur
d'Alene district, and the condition
here is typical of that (which prevails
throughout the west, the producing
mines are unable to obtain sufficient
men with wages at $5.75 per day ana
good boarding accommodations. BE-
fore THE war assessment work was NOT
a difficult problem for the claim own
or for there were always men who
preferred THAT class of work rather
than working in the large mines III
is different now High wages in 9TH
or lines of work have robbed the min
ing districts of this class and have
made it difficult for the big mines TO
maintain sufficient forces. There are
no surplus men in the mining districts
and unless congress relieves them OF
the assessment burden, many claim
owners with lose their holdings
through inability to perform the an
nuad labor themselves or to hire 9TH
er men to do lit. 4,
