to hear excuses OF to forgive failures
to make pledges good. They have re-
TUNED the republican party to power

legislature that is almost unanim-
ously republican. There is therefore
no divided responsibility 1t is up to
the republican party to make its
promises good. The people must have

practicable eliminated altogether. No
laws should be passed creating new
Offices rather it is possible that some
Offices we have now could be abolish

public improvements should generally
be turned down; these can wait until
such time that they can be carried out
without imposing a hardship upon the

NEW YEAR LOOKS BRIGHT FOR
COEUR D'ALENE DISTRICT.

After thirty-four years of continu-
GUS mineral production. the Occur
d'Alene district will enter the new
year with even greater productive
possibilities than ever before. This is
no idle statement based upon the OPP
timstic vagaries of a visionary mind.
for it is supported by facts as con-
vincing as they are gratifying to the
people of this wonderful mining dis
trict In the first place. we are going
to share in the general prosperity
that is soon to return to our country

ton of normal business conditions
This will probably not be fully ac-
complished within the coming year.
but it Will have advanced so far that

Quickening effect of restored conhd-
enee and the long delayed prosperity
OF peace will have become reality,
To doubt that this condition will be
brought about during the coming year
is to doubt the sound common sense
of the American people who control
the destiny of the nation. The people
by their votes have swept away the
barriers that have blocked the way

mandate will be faithfully carried out.
This in itself gives assurance of pros
perity to the mining industry of the
Occur d'Alene district, for it means
the restoration of a steady demand
for our metals and stabilized mar
ket But while sharing this promis-
ing outlook with all the rest of the
country, this favored district has an
other advantage which eventually |
means almost duplication of our al
ready large mineral output The war
demand for zinc made the production /
of that metal in this district a feature /
of the greatest Importance and gave /
an impetus to the development of |
large deposits of zinc ore The ter

Since 1885 up to the beginning of the
present year the mine had produced
S,756536 tons having a gross value of
SOL 4S5484 With the close of this
year the grand total production of the
mine will approximate S97OOOOOO in
the 81 years of its history.
Payroll and Profits.
As an Illustration of the immense
financial benefit such an enterprise is
to the commercial life of the district
an analysis of the production figures
makes interesting reading. During
the "a years of production approXim
ately S3s,000,0 600 has been paid out in
freight rates alone and the freight bill
at the present time runs from $4,000 to
$4,000 per day. During this period op-
Grating profits reached $3O,62I61O and
the net smelter returns totaled S5S.-
759.161. This shows approximately
$4,000, 900 to have been paid out To-
cally in wages and supplies and at the
present time the payroll and supply
bill averages around S3500000 annu-
ally. Dividends have been paid ag-
creating $24.OOO,OOO
The mine is producing an average OF
100000 tons at the present time The
heaviest yield in any one year is
credited to 1917 when $4,000 tons
were mined. From the loading bins
at the mine station at the top of the
shaft nearly three miles under
ground, the ore is hauled to the mills
by electric motors. each train consist
ing of 20 cars each of tons capacity
The average load is trip is 10 tons
and the average number of daily trips
IS about %, showing daily delivered
output of 22OO tons.
