SEES BRILLIANT
GOLD MINING
FUTURE
BY E. NJ. GRIFFITH.

There is a brilliant future ahead foI
mining sections throughout the country
that are marking time at present
This applies more particularly to gold
mining districts. The gold mining in
| dustry has been practically at stand
! still for the last five years, due en-
tirely to the fact that the value of
gold has remained stationary, its val
ne being fixed and Interchangeable, viz:
S20.67 an ounce, while all other metals
have benefited by inflated prices along
with other commodities
The cost of production has been so
great that gold properties cannot be
operated at profit, and have beer
forced to tuspend operations almost
entirely. The decline in gold produc
tion in the United States for the last
five years is more than 80 percent and
will continue unless immediate relief
of some nature is brought about. There
is now pending before congress bill
known as the McFadden bill, Great
ing premium of so percent on all
new gold produced. Should this bill
become a law, it would mean that az
ounce of gold would be worth $30.67.
instead of $20.67, its present value
This law would apply only to newly
mined gold, the object of the bib
being solely to stimulate and encour
age gold mining.
The bill has the endorsement of the
American Mining congress, and the
American Bankers association and
seems to have an excellent chance Of
passage. Then too, the lowering Of
the cost, of mining operations, such
as cheaper labor, supplies, etc, all
tend to bring gold mining into pro
minence, or into "its own"
1t is generally known, and admitted

by the best mining engineers in the
country, that the gold mining dis
triets of Idaho county have msrveloi6
showings of large bodies of gold ores
that would have been producing large
quantities of the precious metal in
the years past, but for the handi-
cap in the way of lack of transporta-
ton. This Objectionable feature has
held the mining industry back in this
| county TO such an extent that there
has been practically nothing doing
thereby creating, to a large extent
the impression that the mining pre-
perties lack merit
However go whore you will, and you
will also hear many say that old Ida
no county will make the greatest gold
producer on the continent when il gets
suitable transportation into the min
ing districts. There are few local
interests and mining mon, who, real
ize the great possibilities of this in
dustry, and of the great benefit, ac-
ttse operations of the mines in the
county would be to the general wei
fare of the county, have spent much
time and money in trying to overcome
this transportation problem. Their ef'
forts so far have not been altogethey
in vain. They have succeeded in en-
listing the support of the government
through the forestry department in
raising the sum of $4,000 on co
operative plan of $4,000 raised by the
Grangeville Highway district, making |
a total of $l35,000, which sum is now
being expended in the construction of |
what is called the first section of the
South Fork highway. This first section
when completed, will mean an auto
road for a distance of about eighteen
miles from Grangeville, which it must
be admitted, is a good start.
There has been much to contend
with in getting this first section I'M
der way, and construction commenced,
owing to the high cost of labor and
supplies, which during the last few
years has been almost prohibitive.
There has also been a contending Gle
nent in certain parts of the county
that has caused the matter to lag and
to be held up for a while, but this
feature is vanishing, having
about run its course.
Now that the cost of labor and sup
plies is rapidly falling, and reduc-
ng generally the cost of construction,
t is confidently believed that there
will not be much difficulty in secur-
ng sufficient government funds to
extend this road up the river and into
he heart of these great gold districts.
However, it must not be thought for
1 moment that this road is going to
)e completed without anv further eff
'ort on the part of the people, not
Dy further taxation, or cooperation
With the government, but by urging
md showing the great necessity for
anne, and by assisting where neces-

By HAZEL DRYo BACHELOR

went religiousiy to church and pray
er meeting every Wednesday night,
felt the enmity in the glances around
her.
Jim Carter was a stranger now an
outsider, and he and Martha, al
though they never said anything
about il to each other, drew closer
together in consequence. They had
beer waiting for Anne to get well
before leaving the long gray farm
house. They would move away some
where else where they weren't
known. The pasture and farm land
about the old house were Of the
best. There would be no trouble in
getting rid OF the place and at a
good profit. So when Anne. on that
sunshiny morning. awoke TO con-
seriousness fell 10 sobbing weakly. her
hand buried in the pillows, she did
not care very much n way or an
other when Aunt Martha told her
that they were going away.
All that day Annie thought of her
lovely mother and that awful night
when she had screamed and run out
into the night. When night came
she shivered and put her head under
he ~bedciothes. There was something
gruesome in the darkness and yet
che dreaded to ask Aunt Martha TO
leave the light. Aunt Martha was
not unkind to her these days. but
neither was she tender. 1t was not
in her nature to be. AS for Jim
Carter he never went near Anne. He
had. no feeling for the child save
that he was as determined M ever
to bring her up without her mothers
weakness. He still felt that his wife
had heen a weakling. Her very fail
ure to face life had proved that. Jim
Carter had become more silent. and
brooded more than ever. He brooded
over the fact that, due to his wife's
mad act, he had to give up his farm
and move away. He blamed Alice
dead for everything, just az he had
always blamed her for everything
while she lived.

CHAPTER w
Anne, left to herself. crept sob
bingly upstairs and crouched by the
window. She was terrified. Some
thing horrible was going to happen
and she did not know what 1t was.
Outside the little night sounds were
audible all around and overhead the
big sky spread in an arch of stars
that somehow did not seem comfort
ing, but very cold and far away and
big, beyond Anne's comprehension.
She crouched there she did not
know how long until she heard
voices coming up from the orchard.
Then her father appeared, followed
by Aunt Martha and another mar
who carried a lantern Her father
carried a still form and suddenly
Anne knew that 1t was her mother.
She sprang up from the window,
wavered a moment on stiffened little
legs and then crept swiftly down
stairs She reached the kitchen just
as her father laid that form down
on the old-fashioned sofa. Water
had dripped from her mothers
clothes all over the kitchen floor
and Anne, even in her childish
agony, thought suddenly of Aunt
Martha's nge at the fact hat her
kitchen was getting all wet. That
Thought, however. was swallowed up
as she came up to where they were
standing and she saw her mothers
still white face on the pillow.
Mother she walled, childishly.
Her father turned on her.
you get out of here, do you hear
me?" he shouted. You see what
you've done. Your mothers dead"
1t was a brutal thing to do to a
child 1t was cruel enough to tell
her that her mother was dead but to
tell her that it wfas her fault was
fiendish, it was horrible.
She put forth a timid hand to touch
that dear still face, and her father
pushed her away. Aunt Martha
came forward then and took her up
stairs to bed. Somewhere in that
grim heart there was pity for the
child, pity for the stumbling feet,
and regret for the part she had play
ed in the treatment of Alice. She
tucked the bedclothes around the
trembling little body and bade her
go to sleep, but Anne lay shivering
and awake. 1t was nearly dawn
when she fell into a flushed and un-
easy sleep. Her long exposure at
the window the night before had
done it's work, and she tossed and
moaned on her pillow for days
after that awful night, parched with
fever, fighting for her life.
She cried constantly for her
mother, and Aunt Martha who tend
ed her grimly, said very little, her
father nothing at all. When Anne
finally woke up one morning to the
sunshine sprawhng over the bed. and
was herself but very weak, her
mother had been sleeping for nearly
three weeks in the little country
graveyard nearby. The results of
that night had been far-reaching.
Scandal had spread among the
|neighboring farms. People Whispered
together about young Mrs. Carter
who had drowned herself in the
river Aunt Martha, who always
