PASADENA FIRE CHIEF
PLANS TO BRING BAND
WALLACE CONVENTION

John c. Boyd, chief of the Wal
lace fire department, has received
a letter from f. f. Coop, chief of
the fire department at Pasadena.
Cal, in which he states that he
wants to bring a SO-piece band to
the annual convention of Pacific
coast fire chiefs which will be
held in Wallace next August. and
desires information regarding ac-
commodations. He estimates that
it will cost $500 to bring the band.
and desires to obtain an approx
mate cost of rooms, meals, etc
This convention will be the biggest
thing in that line that has ever
come to Wallace. It is estimated
that there will be at least 300 fire
chiefs here from practically every
state in the west, and many of
them will be accompanied by their
wives. Add to these the large
number Of representative of man
ufacturers of fire equipment who
will take advantage of this op-
portunity to bring their products
to the attention of the chiefs, and
some idea of the size of the gath
ering may be formed, and also the
job that confronts the people of
Wallace to entertain the visitors.

MINES Of NINE MILE
6OOMEN ON PAYROLL
NORMAL AT CALLAHAN
Much Interest in Meeting of
Directors and Stockholders
of Galena Company
NORMAL AT CALLAHAN

THE CALLAHAN Zinc-Lead COM
pany now has practically $50
men on the payroll, its normal
force, and the mill is running
full time. Several cars of concen-
trates have been shipped, but short
age Of cars has held up shipments to
a considerable extent. This situation
is expected to be relieved within a
few days, according to a statement by
Northern Pacific officials published in
another column. The Callahan mill is
capable of handling between 500 and
ZOO tons daily and will soon be oper-
ating at capacity The resumption of
the Callahan restores Nine Mile to its
former position as a mineral produc-
ing section, and brings the combined
payroll of the Callahan, Tamarack and
Success up to about 600 men.

President John Borg will arrive. Sew
eral of the directors will be accompan-
led by their wives. The meeting
Tuesday is attracting much public in
terest as its purpose is to consider
the question of consolidating with the
Galena Mining company control of
which is owned by the Callahan com
pany. OF even greater interest is the
meeting of the stockholders of the Ga

The proposition to consolidate has
been much discussed by local Galena
stockholders during the past few
weeks. and from present indications
sentiment seems favorable to the deal,
provided an agreement can be reach

Wilson WORKING.

William Burke came over from SAL
tese Tuesday and returned yesterday
morning. He has recently delivered
supplies at the property of the Wilson
Mining & Smelling company, of which
he is president and manager and
work has now started in the crosscut
which will cut the vein at depth of
about 400 feet. The crosscut should
reach the vein in about 260 feet, pos
sibly less. The Wilson is on Silver
creek. about two and a half miles from
Saltese.

WAGES IN ARIZONA.
Mine Operators Make Voluntary Ad-

Mine Operators Make Voluntary Ad-
vance of 10 Per Cent.
Operating executives of mining COM
panies in the Globe Miami district of
Arizona have agreed on a voluntary
increase in wages of 10 per cent. This
was agreed upon at a conference OF
mine managers.
There are at present between $500
and 1000 men employed in the district.
The larger properties are the Inspira-
ton, Miami, Old Dominion, and Ari-
iona Commercial Mining Co. The pres
ent scale is 81 per day for muckers
and $3.50 per day for miners and
semi skilled workers. Under the new
rate common labor and miners will be
paid $40 and $4.95 per day re-
spectively. The new scale puts wages
back to virtually the high level of the
war period, this latest advance rep
resenting an increase of s1.95 and
S1.4O per day above the 1913 rate.
There has been an alarming in
crease in the number of mining work.
ers who have sought other fields Of
endeavor in the last year. Many who
left the camps when the mines were
forced to suspend operations in April
a year ago have not returned. The
oil industry, the farms. and the auto
mobile factories, have taken thousands
of mining workmen from the copper
camps.

North star.

The crosscut that is being run under
contract by the North Star Mining &
Development company is expected to
break into the vein any day. In fact
samples of the formation taken from
the face brought down the first of the
week by G. w. Dougherty secretary
and manager of the company, indicate
that the crosscut may now be entering
the vein. These samples were quartz

MINE SAFETY MEETING
At BUTTE NEXT MONDAY
coEUR D'ALENE COMPANIES TO
BE WELL REPRE-
SENTED.

a meeting of the mining section of
the National Safety council will be
held in Butte next Monday and Tues
day, November 20 and 21 which will
be attended by representative of the
metal mining industry in Washington
Idaho, Montana, Utah and South Da-
kota In a letter outlining the pur-
poses of the meeting, John L. Board
men, of Butte, safety engineer for the
Anaconda company, calls attention to
the fact that "a very large portion OF
the accidents are due to carelessness
on the part of the injured, or his fell
low employee, rather than to faulty
machinery or equipment. However il
is recognized that a single accident
due to faulty equipment reflects great
er discredit on the management of the
mine than does many accidents which
are due solely to carelessness on the
part of the injured" Both classes OF
accidents receive attention at the an
nual meetings of the National Safety
council, Mr.. Boardman says, but as
these meetings are held in the east
metal mines of the west are not gen
orally we'll represented and therefore
do not receive the benft to which they
are entitled. 1t is to correct this con
dition, disseminate information re-
garding accident prevention, standard
lie safety devices and carry on safety
that the meeting is called
in Butte.

Much interest in the Butte meeting
Is being manifested by mine manag-
ers in the Occur dAlene district,

NATIONAL TUNNEL TO Be
USED BY INDEPENDENT
TRACK AND AIR PIPE NOT BEING
REMOVED-EQUIPMENT
MADE SAFE.

Since work was suspended in the
National mine several years ago. oc-
casional caves have occurred in the
main tunnel and these have been
promptly cleared away and the ground
retimbered. These caves have gener-
ally been small, but on one or two
occasions they have been quite large.
The policy of the company has at all
times been to keep this tunnel, which
is about a mile in length, in good con-
dition, for although the company has
no plans for using it, the location of
the tunnel in the heart of a great min
eral section gives it great value as an
available avenue for the development
nothing of the possibility of eventual
ly using it for further development of
the National Men are just now COM
pleting repairs to the tunnel, and in
view of the possibility of larger caves
closing it up, the management decid-
ed that it would be wise to take out
the two underground hoists, ore cars
and all other movable equipment and
this is now being done Some of the
equipment has possibly been Sold and
probably all of it will be disposed of
If the management finds that it can be
done to advantage; but the primary
purpose is to save it from possible
loss underground.
Tunnel to Be Kept Intact.
But the company has no intention to
remove the rails and air pipe in the
tunnel, and it is unfortunate that re-
ports to the contrary have been given
publicity AS indicated above, the
tunnel is a valuable asset and for that
reason will be kept intact. Within the
past few weeks an easement has been
executed in favor of the Independent
Copper Mining & Milling company for
the use of the tunnel in the develop
ment and operation of it's property,
and the publication that the National
is removing the track and air pipes
may seriously interfere with the In
dependent company in carrying out its
financial plans, for it requires
time for the truth to catch up with
and counteract the damaging effect |
that often follows the publication of
rumors.
Independent Enterprise.
The property of the Independent |
company is just north of and adjoin-
ing the National, and the company is /
just now in the act of making finan
cial arrangements to extend the Ma
tional tunnel into it's ground, a matter I

SILVER HILL MINES CO.
SOON Be SHIPPING ORE
SHOWS HIGH VALUES IN SILVER
MINE EXAMINED BY lR-
WING ANDERSON.

The Silver Hill Mines, the common
law trust recently organized in this
city to take over and operate whai
was formerly known as the Silver King
mine near Thompson Falls, is rapid
ly getting affairs in shape to begin
production. Three men are now en-
lployed underground taking out ore for
shipment and the number will soon
be increased. The company has aban-
dOned it's original plan - Utilize the
water of Thompson river for power to
drive the compressor, as it was found
| it would require too much time and
expense to repair the old dam for di-
verting the water. A small COM
pressor driven by a gasoline engine
will be installed, which can be deliv-
cred without delay, and which will
meet the requirements this winter. In
the spring the question of utilizing
water or electric power will be decid
ed. If the latter, power will be OBJ
tanned from the Montana Power com
pany, which will necessitate con
structing a line about four miles.
High Silver Value.
Recent samples takes from various
levels of the mine by c. A. Heating
and Franklin Phrman, organizers and
large stockholders in the company
show uniformly high silver values and
also considerable lead, and it is posi-
BILE that lead will assume first import
ance when further depth is attained.
Here are the results of the assays of
the samples;
No. 1, taken from the west face of
manway stope, 3 feet wide, about 20
feet above No. 3 tunnel, 70 ounces sill
yer, 3 per cent lead; No. 3, from No.
tunnel 119 ounces silver, II per cent
lead; No. 4, from about so feet above
No. tunnel, extending to surface,
inches thick, 73 ounces silver per
cent lead; No. 5. intermediate level
between No. 1 and No. 2 tunnels, 20
feet from surface, 62.5 ounces silver,
S.5 per cent lead; No. 6, about % feet
above No. 3 tunnel, grade formerly
shipped, 81 ounces silver, 20 per cent
ledQs NO. Z, uueS from NO. dump, II
ounces silver, IL per cent lead.
The average of these samples, not
sample from the dump, was
BS.5 ounces silver. lib per cent lead.
Lead in Lowest Tunnel.
A sample Of lead sulphide ore taken
from No. tunnel by former operators I
gave an assay return of "a ounces sill |
yer and &c per cent lead. This pro-
nounced increase in the amount of /
lead on this level suggests that lead |
may be the chief product with further
depth, but for the present the company |
will give it's attention to mining the |
high grade silver exposed in the up
per tunnels.
Irving Anderson, mining engineer,
made an examination of the Silver
Hill last week and will prepare a re-
port for the company, together with /
maps showing the workings, ore ex-
oosures. etc, which will be accessible
o persons who may be considering in
,estment in the enterprise.

MILL FOR CEDAR CREEK
NEXT SPRING
LARGE TONNAGE AVAILABLE -
SOON HAVE ELECTRIC
POWER.

Stockholders of the Cedar Creek
Mining & Development company have
received an interesting letter, accom-
panied by financial statement from
William Becker, secretary and mana
ger, under date of November 10. Dur
ing the past few months the manage
ment has been successful in disposing
of treasury stock to the extent of S10-
600 and it is expected that further
funds will be available from that
source. However, the directors found
it necessary to levy another assess
ment to meet immediate requirements,
notice of which accompanies the let
ter. A large tonnage of lead-silver
and zinc ore has been developed on
both No. 2 and No. tunnel levels and
the two levels have been connected by
a raise which has proved the continu-
ity of the ore. The main drift on No.
3 will now be further extended, fol-
lowing which a shaft will be sunk
from No. 3, which will make a large
addition to the available ore. This
work is in preparation for the mill,
which will be constructed next spring,
lumber for which will be cut this win
ter at the compaDy's own sawmill re-
Gently installed. Mr.. Becker's letter
follows:
Lumber for Mill.

proving the continuity of the ore be-
tween the two levels and making it
available for mining and also provid-
ing good ventilation for the mine.
"a sawmiI having a capacity of TO-,
900 feet a day has been added to the /

used to cut mining timbers, particu-
Iarly for the shaft and will also turn
