RED LEDGE.
Great Copper Mine Being Developed
by Minnesota Iron Operators

Great Copper Mine Being Developed
by Minnesota Iron Operators.
Considerable interest is being mani
tested by the owners of the so called
Red Ledge copper silver property in
the re-checking and sampling of the
ore drift in the property's lower tun-
mel. The last assay received showed
S46.49 in values which was in excess
of the developers expectations.
The Red Ledge comprises 81 lode
mining claims and 16 mill site claims

il is claimed over ten million tons of
S14 copper-silver ore. The fee own

over the development work
The company's program for the sea- /

proposed by Frank A. Kennedy, well

pass through a zone of secondary en-

It is proposed to drive this tunnel 1000
feet before raising to the elevation Of

ST. JOE PLACER.

Frank NJ Rose left last week for
the st Joe basin where he will do the
annual assessment work on the
Sherlock group of placer claims He
was accompanied by Mrs Rose
Henry Sonderegger. another large
owner went in a few days earlier
Mr. Rose went to Iron Mountain
Mont, and there took an automobile
to the Lacasse placer at the head of
Cedar creek thence by good trail
across the divide back into Idaho at
the head of the St Joe river Last
year he did the work on a section of
ground from which he hopes to take
some pay this season. The ground
was located many years ago by the
late Peter Sherlock. who undertook
to open the ground by the cOnstruc-
ton OF a bedrock flume. The task.
however was too great without the
assistance of capital and this has
been difficult to obtain owing to the
remote location of the ground The
ground has been thoroughly pros
pected and there seems to be no
doubt that the pay is there.

SAMSON.
Four Men Working on Eagle Greek
Silver Lead Property.

A. j. Brainard. Of Kellogg, passed
through Wallace last week on his re-
turn from Eagle creek. where he had
been arranging for resumption Of de-
velopment work on the Samson. This
appears to be a property of unusual
merit Development work aggregat
ing more than 1900 feet of crOsscut-
ting and drifting as well as a shaft S5
feet deep has been accomplished.
The main tunnel is about 1000 feet in
length, 400 feet Of which is on the
vein and for about So feet there is a
shoot of lead-silver ore averaging
about IS inches wide, samples of
which returned from IS to 1856 ounces
in silver and high percentage of
lead A shaft S5 feet deep on the
vein shows the same character of ore.
Mr. Brainard said that four men are
now employed on the Samson. The
company has 4O-horsepower boiler
to provide power for pump and the
is well equipped for hand
There is about 25 tons
of shipping ore on the dump.

A Typical Oil Boom Now on in North

l.. l.. Brainard has returned from
the Sweetgrass oil field, in northern
Montana. where he spent several days
investigating conditions in this new

most important oil development in the
west Mr.. Brmnard and associates
own 12O acres in the most favored
section of the field they having pur-
chased all oil and gas rights to the
land. There are two flowing wells,
one producing 500 barrels a day. The
output of the other is not known. 1t
is owned by the Ohio oil company
which is understood to be the Stand
ard Oil. and further drilling is being
done to test the deeper oil sands The
first sand i'm this we'll was struck at
100 feet. while the 500 barrel well
struck oil at 1850 feet Mr. Brainard
says the Ohio Oil company is leasing
and buying outright land in all parts
of the field. and when the rights can
not be obtained by lease or purchase
the company will put down wells on a
$3.50 basis. There are now % rigs in
operation and new ones are being
brought in daily. The railroad sta

Ore Deposit Similar to the Sidney Is
Found on Surface.


Openings on the surface of the
Denver claim. owned by the Nabob
Consolidated Mining company. have
disclosed an extensive body Of ore
identical with that found on the Sid
ney, from which extensive shipments
have been and are being made. The
showing is on the opposite side of
the gulch from the Sidney. the end
line between the two properties being
in the gulch An ore shoot several
hundred feet in length has been open
ed underground on the Denver and
this discovery on the surface proves
its continuation to the surface. 1t is
understood that the purpose of the
NabOb management is now to raise on
the ore to the surface which will
make available large additional ton
mage of lead-sil ore. According to
recent announcement the Nabob
is planning to resume pro-
duction at an early date, as it is be-
lieved that the present price of lead
and silver will insure a profit indie

Whereas, recent investigation by

that white pines in southwestern

Whereas, presence of the disease

Whereas. the large bodies Of west

placing an apparatus against the

pipe turns the inside of the stump in

STERLING SILVER.

Cut Stringer Carrying High Values in
Silver.
According to information received
from Big creek. a stringer six inches
thick was recently cut by the Sterling
Silver company which gave an assay
return of 43 ounces in silver. This
was found in the main crosscut the
face of which is still approximately
100 feet from the vein. This is high

METAL MARKET.

Reviewing the metal market in its
issue Of July 1. the Engineering and
Mining Journal Press says:
Lead.
Lead is perceptibly easier, both
here and in the middle west Though
some good orders have been placed,
the aggregate tonnage is much below
that of recent weeks. Lead has been
easily available at 5.75c, New York,
all the week. and it is not likely that
any producer has been able to get
more than 5775c Today it is even
possible to obtain good corroding lead
at 5.75c The 1000 tons Of Penarroya
lead which was imported to this coun-
try over a year ago has been actively
offered this week at 5.S5c. but none
has been sold so far as we learn. This
lead is reported to be of the best cor
roding quality, but the pigs are cast
a little longer than usual here.
Much of the Mexican lead contin-
ues to come into this country, and
lead is available for shipment from
Tampico at current prices, duty paid
This Mexican lead is helping greatly
to prevent a runaway market here; in
fact, without this supply &c lead would
probably have been reached before
this, domestic production probably
not being much more than 10 per cent
greater than a year ago
Lead for forward delivery is OBJ
tainable from those interests willing
to sell it at about ~ points advance
over July prices.
Zinc.
THE zinc market has been excep-
tionally quiet brass makers seeming
well provided for the present with
prime western zinc, and galvanizers
holding off pending settlement of the
coal strike. Most producers are I'M
willing to sell at present levels and
the market price is being set by deal
ers. The prices quoted are for June
and July deliveries. August and Sep
-ember could be obtained at from ~
10 points premium. High grade zinc
continues in good demand at 625c
with soc per 100 pounds freight al
owance"
