JOPLIN SMELLING MAN
BETTER DAYS FOR ZINC
MEETS OLD FRIENDS, LIKES THE
DISTRICT AND is CON-
ING BACK.

j. q. starr of Joplin, accompanied
by Mr. and Mrs. r. A. Kemper of
Spokane, was brief visitor in Wal
lace last Tuesday, coming up from
Spokane by automobile and returning
yesterday morning Mr. Starr met
quite a number of old Joplin friends
during his brief stay, among whom
were Thomas McCabe, of the Miner.
and John Dolan, undersheriff, with
whom he had a pleasant visit and
gave them much personal news from
the famous old Missouri mining me-
tropolis, for which all true sons Of
the old commonwealth retain fond
Irecollections. Mr.. Starr has business
connections in Spokane and has fire.
quently visited that city but this was
his first visit to Wallace He drove up
to the Hecla mine Tuesday afternoon.
He was most favorably impressed
with the little he saw of the district
and plans to make a more extended
visit when he makes his next trip to
the northwest.
Optimistic Regarding Zinc.
Mr.. Starr has for many years been
engaged in the zinc smelling business
and is now heavily interested in three
plants in Oklahoma Both these
plants as well as several others in
that section are closed down through
a strike of the smeltermen's union. the
issue being the question of union
recognition. He expressed confidence
that the smelling companies would
win, although it may be a long drawn
out struggle It is not a fight against
organized labor but rather a deter
mined stand for the principle of the
open shop.
Asked regarding the zinc situation.
Mr. Starr said that he was very hope
ful that the next six months would
a decided improvement in the /
demand for the metal, which would |
maintain a stable price at a figure |
that would insure a fair profit to both /
the producers and the smelters He |
said there is practically no export /
business due to the excessive rates Of .
exchange with European countries,
and when this condition is restored to
something approaching normal he ex-
oects to see an immediate improve
nent in the zinc situation.
Increases Uses of Zinc.
Mr. Starr attended the meeting of
zinc men that was held in St Louis
asst year for the purpose of organic
ng a campaign to encourage the use
If zinc and to devise new uses for the 1
METAL. He said that this movement
lad already accomplished beneficial ,
esults. and that the success already !
chieved justified the expectation that
he field for zinc would steadily wild
n and that it would be found better /
dapted for many purposes for which ,
ther metals are now exclusively {

Wine Being Sunk on Ore From the
Lower Level.

Wine Being Sunk on Ore From the
Lower Level.
The Wine that is being sunk from
the lower level of the Ajax was down
95 feet the first of the week according
to \. c. BiXby, manager. This work
was undertaken after exploring the
vein for several hundred feet. which
showed ore continuously and for 12O
feet there was a fine shoot of COM
mercial ore which apparently widened
with depth. 1t was TO explore this
that the Wine was started and the
results have been very satisfactory.
For 65 feet the Wine was in the vein
and for that distance showed fully a
foot of commercial ore and about
three feet of quartz with more or less
ore distributed through it. At this
point a change in the dip carried the
vein away from the course of the
Wine which has since been in the
hanging wall. At 100 feet Mr. Bixby
says that a small station will be cut
and the vein. which is only a few feet
away will be explored with very fav-
Drable indications that a much larger
and better body will be disclosed.

WHY NATIONAL STOCK
SUDDENLY ADVANCED
COMPANY HAS VALUABLE AS
sETs-sTocKHoLDERs NOT
IN AGREEMENT.

The recent advance in the price of
National stock on the Spokane ex-
change has attracted considerable at
tention and not little inquiry as to
ment at a time when not a wheel is
turning at the property and no indi-
cation that there will be during the
lives of people now on earth The
most plausible explanation of the ad-
vance is that brokers and spectators
suddenly woke up to the fact that the
prevailing price of around a cent and
u half was ridiculously low consider
ing the tangible assets of the COM
pany which have recently been APP
praised at approximately 100000 in
dependent of between $4,000 and
$4,000 in the treasury. The National
is capitalized for 100000 shares, and
on a valuation represented by this
appraisement the stock should be
easily worth s cents. Along with this
showing of assets, there are well
founded rumOrs that two and prob
ably more large mining machinery
companies are anxious to bid on the
mill and all other equipment owned
by the National, and that the difficult
ty in getting new machinery has Civ
en- a value to the plant far above its
original cost. With these facts
known, it is evident that National
stock at this time presents a very in
viting speculation.
May Call Meeting.
A little inquiry, however, makes il
evident that National stockholders
are not of one mind regarding the
of the company's property.
In the first place, the right Of the di-
rectors to sell the property without
first securing a favorable expression
from the stockholders is seriously
questioned, and those who hold that
view insist that the directors issue a
,all for the annual meeting of stock /
holders. the date for which is the sec d
md Saturday in October as provided /
~ the bylaws. 1t is also urged that at /
hat meeting a new board of direct
RS should be elected of which at /
east four of the seven should be res
dents of this district 1t also appears
hat the sentiment among stOckhold- ,
rs favorable TO abandoning the mine
S not unanimous by any means; that
here is a considerable number who
avor further work in an effort to de-
elop profitable ore body 1t is sug-
-ested by these that the mill might be
old because it is too large and ex-
ensive to operate, and if a CONNER
ial ore body should be found a small
nil, adapted to the requirements of
he mine could be built near the mine
nd operated at greatly reduced ex-
ense.
Taken altogether the National stu
ton is one that should not be dis
osed of without first getting an ex-
ression from the stockholders. and l,
he near approach of the date for the :
nnual meeting is an opportune time
Of the directors to call them together
