STERLING SILVER WILL

RESUME DEVELOPMENT OR RICH
SILVER BEARING VEIN ON
BIG CREEK.

ActlVe development work will be re.
sumed on the Sterling Silver Mountain
property, located on Big creek, within
few days, according to officials OF
the company. The Sterling has been
under steady development for more
than two years during which $50 feet
of crosscuts and drifts have been com
pleted. A heavy rock slide last week
completely buried the road for nearly
100 yards, making it impossible to get
supplies to the property, which has oc-
casioned a brief cessation of under
ground activities while the miners were
put on the road to remove the slide.
Extend Main Crosscut.
The Sterling company has recently
purchased an adjoining group of claims
and consolidated with the original
holdings, thereby giving the corpora
ton about 400 acres of ground adjoin-
ing the Sunshine company's holdings
on the south. According to SURVEYS
the crosscut tunnel will be extended
an additional $50 feet to cut the ledge
at a vertical depth of $50 feet. Several
promising stringers of ore, carrying
values in gray copper, have been cut
turing the past 100 feet. which, with a
noticeable change in the formation
eads the management to believe that
With the dip of the ledge toward the
the vein may be encountered
within a shorter distance than esti-
mated by the surface surveys.

TORKELSON TAKES OVER
GOLD CLAIMS AT MURRAY
WILL EXPLOIT RICH VEIN CUT
BY BIG YUKON COMPANY
DREDGE.

}. c. Torkelson, lately connected
with the Hecla Mining company al
Burke has secured lease on foul
claims from the Occur dAlene Placer
company and is now at Murray for the
purpose of looking over the ground.
The lease does not apply to placer
claims, but TO good quartz lodges
which were in part developed by the
Yukon Gold dredge one mile west OF
Murray, on the south side OF Prichard
creek. The dredge at that point cut
through about 100 feet Of ledge forma-
ton and brought up a large amount Of
exceedingly rich quartz and ore (ga-
lena). According 10 information re-
ceived from Murray yesterday Mr.
Torkelson will start sinking shaft on
the leased ground as soon as freight
can be hauled from the railroad at
Prichard. Mr.. Torkelson is a practical
gold mill man and an experienced |
amalgamator. and is quite familiar
with the gold belt on the North Side
Report Confirmed.
The above news confirms the report
that was heard at the time the Yukon
dredge cut this rich vein. As the re-
port was circulated, the discovery be-
came richer with each successive repi-
tition until the big steel buckets were
represented as scooping up quartz held
together with bands of gold The de-
scription of the discovery as given
above is unquestionaby correct, from
which it is evident that the vein is
wonderfully rich and that its develop I
ment by Mr. TorkelsOn will result in ,
bringing other gold deposits of the I
North Side to the attention of men {
seeking gold properties Reports from /
various parts of Idaho indicate tha1 t
The gold resources of the state are re. il

LEAD AND ZINC PRICES
MAKE NOTABLE ADVANCE
INCREASE WITH REPORT TAMA-
RACK SOON TO START HELPS
LOCAL SITUATION.

The advance in the price of lead
during the past few weeks. from 4.7O
cents per pound to cents has had a
most cheering effect upon local pro
ducers and also upon the business
community and is looked upon as a
forerunner of better business condi-
tions during the remainder of the wear.
Coincident with the advance in price
the report is renewed with increased
persistency that the Tamarack is pre-
pairing to resume operations by the
first of May but no authoritative in
formation has been given out on the
subject According to those who are
supposed to know. the only delay now
is on account of the road from Sunset
to the mine, the great amount of snow
making it difficult to haul heavy loads.
\ few warm days, however, will rem
edy this difficulty and in anticipation
of this it is learned a number of men
were added to the mine force this
week, and that the tramway man was
sent up also, indicating that prepare /
ton is being made for the delivery of |
ore from the mine to the mill. The
of early resumption at the
and the belief that the
Hunter will soon follow now that
higher price of lead seems assured, are
having a beneficial effect upon the

going after. At least that is the view
taken by the board of trade at its
weekly meeting yesterday The matter
was brought to the attention of the
board by Major f. l.. Quigley, member
of the republican state committee for
Shoshone county who stated that a
meeting of the committee had been
called at Boise on April % He said
there seemed to be a sentiment among
republicans in the southern part of tn,

north, and he asked an expression

to the fact that republican state CON
vention was a feature of the formal
opening of the Samuels hotel and that
the democrats also held their state
convention in this city that year. In
view of the benefits to be derived bv
the city in the way of advertising. Mr.
Rossi moved that the board of trade
extend an invitation to the republican i
state committee to hold the conven-
tion in this city and that everything

The matter of preparing an exhibit
from this county for the Sports and
Tourists fair in Spokane was brought
up by Harry McAllister, chairman OF
the special committee. He said that
r. f Thomas, deputy game warden for
this section, had volunteered to assist
in preparing an exhibit of fish and
game, and that while he thought there
would be little or no expense beyond
transportation to Spokane he desired
to hear from the board on the question
of expense before proceeding
r. T. Strachep thought that it was
important that an exhibit from this
county should be placed at the fair and
that arrangements should be made to
have some one in charge of it and to
answer inquiries regarding the outdoor
life in this district Mr. Strachen
thought the rod and gun club would
contribute toward the expense, and his
motion to authorize the committee not
to exceed S25 in preparing the exhibit
was adopted.

nc committee. stated that he had been
officially advised that the O.-W. r. &
company had reached an agreement
with the Milwaukee and that arrange
ments for train service by way Of

days. He also said that the railroad
company had proposed a train sched-
ule practically the same as that used
in the service across the lake. This
was not altogether satisfactory to the
committee, Major Quigley said. and
the following schedule was submitted
to the company as a substitute: Leave
Spokane at Sis a. m, arrive at Wal

Leave Wallace at a. m. arrive Spo-
kane 11:45 a. m; leave Wallace 2:15 |

the advantages of this schedule is that
it gives the people down the line who
have business in Wallace over two
