CONGRESSMAN A. T. SMITH
MAY STOP OFF IN WALLACE
ON WAY TO WASHINGTON

Addison T. Smith. of Twin Falls.
representative in congress from
the south Idaho district, is in St.
Maries today to attend the mar
riage of his son to a young lady
of that city. In letter from Mr.
Smith a few weeks ago he stated
that he oould leave for Washing
ton Immediately after the wedding
and that he hoped to make a brief
stop in Wallace. Nothing further
has been heard from him on the
subject, but it is believed prob
able that he will arrive here
either this evening or on the noon
train tomorrow. Last Tuesday he
addressed the Spokane chamber of
commerce on Reclamation" and
also participated in the conference
of northwest farmers regarding
the marketing of agricultural pro
ducts. If definite information can
be obtained that Mr.. Smith is COM
ing to Wallace, it is probable that
the republicans will arrange an
informal reception at which the
public will have an opportunity to
meet the man who has ever been
an active and effective champion
of the mining industry and every
other interest of Idaho.

SILVERADO PREPARING
TO RESUME OPERATIONS
MINE IN GOOD SHAPE-HAS A
FLoTATIoN MILL AND ALL
NECESSARY EQUIPMENT.

c. d. Muxen, of Spokane, secretary
.of the Silverado Mining company
was in the city the first of the week,
and spent considerable time at the
property of the company, which is
situated a short distance below Os-
burn, and not far from the rail-
road. Mr.. Muxen stated that he had
arranged for financing the company
and expected to resume work in the
mine in a short time. The property
has been inactive since 1918 The
company owns 20 claims in the So
called dry ore belt the group being
Joined on the east by the Nellie and
on the west by the Chester. A large
amount of development work has been
done on the Silverado, resulting in
opening up considerable lead-silyer
ore and a little gray copper The
main tunnel is a crOsscut 1000 feet
long. and from the point of intersec-
ton the vein has been drifted upon
about 200 feet to the west and a less
distance east. In the west drift Mr.
Muxen says. the ore is continuous,
varying in width from 1 to or 4 feet,
having a value of about $35 to the
ton. based on the prevailing metal
prices at the time the mine was ac-
tive About half this value was sill
yer. which would be double now. A
shaft has been sunk 40 feet on the
vein at a point a short distance west
Ill
way. In sinking this shaft a little
gray copper was found which carried
s27O ounces in silver.
Has 100 Ton Mill.
The Siverado company has a flota-
ton mill of 100 tons capacity, the
equipment consisting of a
crusher and a ball mill. Also a com
pressor drills, blacksmith shop and
all necessary tools and equipment for

Company Prepares for Extensive De-
VeIopment Campaign.
The Horseshoe Mining company. of
which J. B. Scoles, of Mullan, is man
aEer. a few weeks ago purchased the
compressor, machine drills and in fact
all the equipment in connection with
the power plant of the st. James Min
ing company and has now placed it in
position at the company's property
above Mullan, on the opposite side of
the river from the National mill The
electric power will be obtained from
the Washington Water Power COM
pany, connection having been made
within the last few days. A crosscut
tunnel has been run over 1000 feet on
the Horseshoe, cutting two veins, both
of which showing considerable lead
silver ore. On one of the veins partic-
ularly there is a remarkably fine sur
face showing which, taken with the
in the crosscut. gives a very
encouraging outlook for a commercial
ore body when the vein is explored by
drifting which it is understood is the
purpose of the management at this
time.

GIANT LEDGE.
West Drift Now Almost Under the
Old Steen Shaft.


Old Steen Shaft.
Charles c. Taylor, of Murray, man
ager of the Giant Ledge Mining com
pany, was in the city the first of the
week He reports the west drift from
the bottom of the 4OO-foot shaft which
has been run for quite a long distance
alongside the vein, is swinging back
to the vein to the objective point prac-
tically under the old Steen shaft and
where it is expected to find body Of
ore having a high value in gold, as in
dictated by the showing in the shaft
The company has developed a fine
showing of ore in the east drift which
attains great depth under the ada
cent mountain. The company has
large group of claims, electrically
driven hoist and compressor sawmill,
good and commOdious buildings and
partially constructed concentrating
mill. which would probably have been
completed during the past summer if
the efforts to have the Prichard creek
railroad restored had been successful.

A letter to the stockholders of the

treasurer, states that the current as
sessment of three mills is for the pur-
pose of paying off the final indebted

annual assessment work. The forest
service contested the company's ap-
plication for patent on the ground
that sufficient work had not been done
and that on three claims there was
not a valid showing of mineral The
company defended it's title, carrying
the case to the secretary of the inter

on four of the five claims, the claim
lost being the least valuable. The

The Stars Appreciation of the
Fruit Starts a Boom for It.
To the Editor of The Star:
Your editorial of Tuesday on the
American pawpaw was an admirable
| and deserved tribute to a native fruit
that is too little known and appre-
ciated. and was as enjoyable to the
many lovers of the pawpaw as the
fruit itself. Your discretion in wait
ing till the season is nearly over be-
fore disclosing it's principal habitat
in this vicinity is of doubtful value to
its devotees this year: The Great
Falls of the Potomac is one of it's
haunts that you overlooked.
Owing to it's lack Of fibrous roots
and it's peculiar soil requirements, .tc
paWpaW can never be cultivated as
easily as the peach or other domestic

peculiarities succeeded in, growing
| about twenty trees that are bearing

shaded the seedlings with inverted
empty barrels and gave them special
fertilization. Dr. keenan, is also an
expert in growing walnuts of the

years in improving the pawpaw by
special selection, and produced va

almost seedless, it is said.
Many people do not like the paw
paw on first acquaintance, because
Of its intense sweetness and aroma.
but 1t is so full of sugar and so
digestible that 1t is bound to grow
in favor. The trees are regular and
heavy bearers. One tree on the place
of Mr.. Mussante, on the old Seat
Pleasant farm. near the District line
in Maryland, is nearly foot in d.
ameter and bears several bushels of
fruit every year. Mr.. Wilfred Stevens,
