A SPOKANE VIEW OF
THE LEAD, ZINC AND
MAGNESITE INDUSTRIES

Upon invitation from the Spo-
kane chamber of commerce. repre-
sentatives of the lead and zinc in
dustry of the Occur d'Alene dis
trict and the magnesite industry
of Stevens county, Wash. address
ed that body last Tuesday to enlist
its support of tariff protection for
those industries. In it's account of
the meeting the following morning
the Spokesman Review gave all
the headlines and all but nine lines
of its rather extended report to
magnesite. The nine lines were
run in at the close of the article
more in the nature of an after
thought. as If the speaker for lead
and zinc was dealing with a sub
ject of small consequence. but even
so might be entitled to passing
mention. The mines of the Occur
d'Alene district built Spokane and
a stream of wealth from them con-
tinues to swell its channels of
trade In normal times they en-
ploy over 5000 men. Adverse tariff
legislation would destroy the lead
and zinc industry of the Occur
d'Alenes. Yet the Spokesman
Review, a Spokane institution
which more than any other reflects
the Spokane spirit" hardly re-
CARDS it of sufficient importance
to merit passing notice. And yet
our good friends in Spokane con-
tinue to wonder why Occur
d'Aleners do not warm up" to the
pretentious capital of the Inland
Empire"

DIRECTOR BUNKER HILL
SHELTER is OPTIMISTIC
REGARDING LEAD MARKET

Frank NJ Smith, director of
Bunker Hill smelter. was in the
city last Monday and went down
to Kellogg Tuesday morning. He
expressed much satisfaction with
the recent advances in the price
of lead and was of the opinion that
further advances would follow. He
was hopeful. however, that the in
crease would not be too rapid. as
such action would tend to check
buying and probably cause a reac-
ton in the price. He regarded the
upward movement OF the metal as
rejecting an improvement in bust
ness conditions and a movement
toward a normal demand. Lead
at 51s cents per pound he said
would correspond to az cents be-
fore the war, which was regarded
as a fair price. Mr. Smith said
that the Bunker Hill smelter is
operating only one furnace at this
time but the improved metal mar
ket along with more favorable
mining conditions generally indi-
Gated that more extended opera
tions might be expected before
long. Regarding the tariff on lead
and zinc, Mr.. Smith thought the
senate would adopt the schedules
in the bill as it came from the
house without material change,
but thought it wise to forestall
any possible attempt to reduce
them through prompt action by
mining interests of the west in the
adoption of resolutions protesting
against a reduction and forward
same to republican senators from
the mining states.

HYPOTHEEK PREPARES
RESUME OPERATIONS
WILL INSTALL COMPRESSOR AND
EXPLORE MOST PRoMIs-
ING GROUND

Otto A. OLSON, manager of the Hy-
potheek Mining & Milling company,
announces that preparations are being
made for a resumption of development
work at an early date. After closing
down the mine in 1918, a crosscut was
started about 1900 feet west of the
shaft and in about 400 feet the vein
was encountered which proved to be
about 60 feet wide. A drift was run
easterly toward the shaft, about 125
feet and was then discontinued until
the company was in position to provide
power. The drift followed a strong
streak of quartz along the footwall
while the vein generally showed fire.
quent streaks of quartz, oxidized iron
and black manganese, characteristics
of the Hypotheek vein. Now that the
grade and the mining situation shows
evidence of returning prosperity, the
HypOtheek company has arranged to
install a compressor and proceed will
the extension of this drift, which
promises to disclose a important ore
shoot. Excavation for the compressor
is now under way.
Chance for Big Ore Body.
The purpose of the company in do
ing this work is to explore ground in
which it is believed three veins unite
one of which is theoriginal Hypotheek
vein which has been developed through
the shaft to a depth of 100 feet and
from which returns from ore shipments
amounted to 100000. From the shaft
workings two parallel veins north and
south of the vein were discovered by
diamond drilling, both carrying ore
These veins had been exposed on the
surface, and their position as shown by
the diamond drill indicated that they
were converging to the west and that
the three veins would unite probably
500 feet west of the shaft If this the
DRY proves correct, it is regarded more
than probable that a large body of
commercial ore will be found which
will restore Hypotheek to q productive
basis. The company has every facility
for production which in general terms
includes a mill of 200 tons capacity
hoist, large compressor. electric mo-
tors, machine shop, tools of every de-
scription. boarding and bunk house.
cottages, sawmill, etc. The discovery
of a new ore body would therefore en-
able the company to resume production
without dong delay or large expense.

TAYLOR SOON RETURN
Complete Road From Mine to
MISUNDERSTANDING is Now
Ready for Production

WAMES H. TAYLOR, manager OF
the Bullion Mining company, will
return from Los Angeles soon at
ter the first of May. BY that time
it is expected that the snow will have
sufficiently disappeared to permit TAX
ing in supplies preparatory to a re-
sumption OF underground and outside
work. The development of the Bullion
has now reached a point that justifies
the erection of mill and plans are
now being formulated with that in
view. Further work, however will be
done to make available additional ton
mage, and at the same time the COM
pletion of the wagon road from the
mine to the Milwaukee railroad will
receive attention. a wide trail has
been constructed on a good wagon
road grade from the mine to the
mouth of Bullion creek, a distance of
about two and half miles. leaving a
gap of about a mile and half to be
built to connect with the road built by
the Pearson Mining company to the
railroad at Boyle spur The trail can
be transformed into a wagon road with
comparatively little expense, making a
good side-hill highway from the mine
to the railroad. a distance of about six

The Independence Lead Mines com
pany will secure air for machine drills
from the American Commander COM
pressor. The pipe line, which will be
upwards of 5000 feet in lingth, is now
being laid and it is expected to have
the drills in operation in No. tunnel
early next week Later the line will
be extended to tunnel No. 3 and it
will be easily accessible to No 4 when
work begins in that tunnel which will
probably not be very long Work in
No. continues with satisfactory re-
suits. The drifts following the ore in
northeasterly direction has recently
turned more to the east, indicating a
return to the general course of the
You Like vein. This information was
obtained from Harry w. Ingalls, man
ager of the Independence, who was ir

some work would soon be done on the
south side of the drift, just east of the
dixie. where there is a good showing of
low grade ore.

Assays Look Good.

Mr. ingalls, also exhibited an assay
certificate, the samples tested being
taken from four tunnels. The first
sample was taken from tunnel No. /.
representing about four feet in width
which returned ounces in silver and
1916 per cent lead. The second was
from the face of the drift easterly from
the dixie and returned "a ounces in
silver and 81 per cent lead. The third
was west Of the dixie near the main

The Last Call.

"On October 20, 1919. a large major
ity of the stockholders held a meeting
at Cleveland Ohio, outlining a devel-
opment and equipment policy requir-
ing a number of years to complete.
This work. as will be noted further in
this report has progressed steadily
and now is nearing our final objective
point. 1t was estimated at that time
that it would require an expenditure
of 10 cents per share which amount
was levied, cents on November s,
1919, cents on August 10. 1920, 2 cents
on March q, 1921, and cents on Oc-
tOber 26, 1921 Every effort has been
made to complete the work within
this appropriation. but it will require
cent per share additional to do so and
your directors have no alternative ex-
cept to levy this and have been forced
TO do so, otherwise the many years
work and expenditure of large sums of
money would practically have been for
nothing. 1t is now levied in the firm
conviction that it is the final call on
the stockholders for funds to open up
the ore bodies which we are confident
will place our company in the list of
substantial producers and dividend
payers.

Great Mineral Section.

The successful development of the
Bullion and plans to place it upon a
productive basis mark the beginning
of a new era in the history of sec
ton Familiarity known as the copper
belt of the Occur dAlene district
Long handicapped by the absence of
transportation, the Milwaukee railroad
along the st. Joe removed this Obsta-
Gle and now the Bullion company has
proved the existence of large CONNER
cial ore bodies. Thus the situation is
reassuring to companies operating in
that section and should encourage
others to undertake development work.
The Pearson Mining company is car
rying out a big development program
under conditions similar to those that
prevail at the Bullion, while numerous
other properties in that section justify
equally extensive development. The
completion of the road from the Bull
lion to the Milwaukee and the connec-
ton of the present wagon road from
the Borax tunnel to the Bullion with
the Yellowstone trail will make that
section easily accessible from Wallace,
and will prove an important factor in
the development of the latent re-
sources of the copper belt which seems
destined to make a tremendous addi-
ton to the mineral wealth of the Occur
d'Alene district.
