SUCCESS MINE GIVES
STRONG EVIDENCE OF
AGAIN COMING BACK

A few weeks ago a drift was
started on a small stringer of ore
at the Success mine upon the the
DRY that it might lead to an i'm
portant shoot of ore, theory that
had substantial support in expe-
rience in that mine as we'll as in
most OF the mines of the district.
The drift was started on the main
tunnel level not far from the shaft
station in a large section of virgin
ground, the main workings of the
mine being on the opposite side of
the shaft, and in a Burke quartz
lite formation. With the first
round the stringer of ore increased
in size and this has continued
steadily until now there is upwards
of three feet of good lead silver
ore in the face, with frequent
streaks and punches of high grade.
The shoot continues to widen and
the conditions are altogether fav-
orable for developing an extensive
shoot of lead silver ore. Very lit
tie zinc has been encountered in
extending the drift The showing
is decidedly encouraging, espec-
tally when considered in connec-
ton with the showing of ore on the
400 and 1000 levels while the
strong price of lead combines to
make the outlook favorable for a
resumption of production at this
famous old property.

A MOTHER step was recorded
~ yesterday in the steady ad-
vance of returning prosperity
when the interstate commerce
commission ordered horizontal re-
duction in freight rates throughout the
country effective July 1. Applied to
The northwest the cut amounts to 12lb
per cent. Whether this win apply to
smelter products shipped from smell
ters of the northwest is not clear at
this time. These products were grant
ed some concessions about year ago
and it is possible that the order of the
commission may deny them further
reductions. as was stipulated with re-
spect to agricultural products which
had been allowed reductions last year
and on January 1 this year. However,
the fact that no reference was made
IN the condensed report Of the decis-
ion as published indicates that bullion
shipments are included in the general
reduction. 1t is certain ore shipments
viii receive the benefit and to that
extent Occur d'Alene zinc producers
will get relief which, with the increas-
ed demand for the metal and higher
prices may enable some mines now
idle to resume production. But aside
from the advantages the mining COM
panies may or may not receive direct
through the reduction of freight rates,
they as well as the people of the dis
tnct generally will receive substantial
benefit through the cut in rates on
everything they consume which will
be manifested in reduced cost of min
ing and living expenses. Altogether
the decision of the Interstate commerce
commission is most gratifying news to

cisive step in the long delayed return

ore ABOVE Murray.
Allen c. Kennedy, of this city. who
represents the Fidelity company,
which owns the Monarch mine above
Murray visited the property last Sun
day for the purpose of inspecting the
recent strike made by the leasers. The
ore was struck on the 1900 level
which is reached by raise from the
1400 tunnel level. Since striking the
ore the leasers have raised on it about
so feet the pay shoot varying from 6
inches to Is inches of high grade lead
silver ore, with a considerable amount
of milling grade. This raise will be
continued through to the 100 level.
The leasers have accumulated quite a
large amount of ore in the bins and
they plan on starting the mill soon
after the first of June. The mill was
built many years ago and handled
quite large tonnage from above the
1000 level. The mill has a capacity Of
$50 tons and is in good condition. The
finding of this ore shooOt will doubt
less eventually be followed by its loca-
ton on the 1900 level.

The cut in freight rates will prove
another and important factor in re-
storing prosperity in the Occur
d'Alenes. The strong market for lead.
with the price now at 5l6 cents per
pound with a further upward tendency,
has in a great measure dispeled the
gloom of business depression. The
higher price has already developed
signs of early resumption at idle mines.

There are no new developments, So
far as can be learned, regarding the
resumption of operations at the Tam
arack and Hercules but the impress
sion prevails that orders may be ex-
pected any day that will place the
Tamarack on the active list and that
the Hercules will not be far behind.
That the Tamarack expects to start
soon is indicated by the fact that men
laid off some two weeks ago have been
advised not to seek another job, as it
would be only a matter of a few days
until they would be recalled to the
Tamarack. The cause of the delay is
of course a matter of speculation, but
it is believed to be due to negotiations
in connection with contract for the
treatment of the ores. According to
popular belief the Days will abandon
the Northport smelter so far as the
treatment of Tamarack and Hercules
ore is concerned. and as a consequence
there is active rivalry among shelters
to secure contract for their ores. 1t
is therefore believed that the delay in
starting the Tamarack and probably
the Hercules is due TO these negotia
tions. and that when an agreement is
reached. production will begin just as
soon as a working force can be assem-
bled

MANY REPUBLICANS WILL
SEEK OFFICE IN COUNTY
DEARTH OF DEMOCRATS lNDI-
GATES THEY SEE HANDWRIT-
ING ON THE WALL.

If one may judge by the announced
candidates for county offices up to
date, the election this fall will be a
decidedly one-sided affair and the re-
publicans will have that side Numer-
Gus republican candidates have made
formal announcement and are prepar-
ing to make active campaigns in the
approaching primary election, some of
whom are seeking reelection, and all
evidently assuming that nomination on
the republican ticket means election in
November. So far as Shoshone county
is concerned, this is going to be a re-
publican year. In addition to the can
didates already in the field, it is I'M
derstood that all present county Off
GERS will be candidates for reelection.
A list of republican candidates who
have made formal announcement fol-
lows:
State Senator.
Donald A. Callahan, OF Wallace
Representative.
Robert L. Brainard, of Wardner;
Richard E Thomas, of Kellogg, pres
ent incumbent.
County Commissioners.
First district, John c. Wood of Gem.
Second district, Eugene Thomas, of
Osburn; D. w. Price, of Kellogg.
Third district, James H. Taylor, of
Wallace.
Sheriff.
Jesse Freeman, of Wallace, present
incumbent.
Prosecuting Attorney.
Charles H. Craig, of Wallace; John
L. Fitzgerald, of Wallace.
Treasurer.
John Lucas. of Wallace, present in
cumbent; Cary A. Forbes of Kellogg.
Only One Democrat.
Naturally this array of active and
capable republican aspirants, as we'll
as others who will enter the field. in
Guiding those who have already proved
their efficiency as public officials, is
disheartening to our democratic friends
and they naturally hesitate to toss their
hats in the ring. Only one so far has
had the temerity to do So and that one
is Hugh McGiris, who seeks the demo-
cratic nomination for sheriff
