WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
TAMARAck is NOW THE
ABSORBING QUESTION

According to Information re-
ceived from parties coming down
from the Tamarack mine. about
ten men were laid off last Monday
evening. these being men who had
been added to the force during the
past few weeks, leaving about fif-
teen men on the job who had been
employed during the winter and
before preparations were started
for resumption. II is said that this
action was taken on Geographic
instruction from Jerome j. Day.
general manager. who is reported
to be in Portland in conference
with his brother. Harry l.. Day.
and sister. Mrs. Edward Boyce.
The men laid off were not given
their time, but We're given to UNI
derstand that thew would probably
be recalled in a few days Ii is
understood that one of the pur-
poses of the conference in Port
land is to endeavor to effect set

widow of the late manager of the

that this would have any connec-
ton with the action of the Tam

ton is that work was slowed up
at the mine pending the negotia-
ton of a contract for smelling

BEAR CREEK COMPANY
WILL SOON Be ACTIVE
EXTEND ELECTRIC POWER LINE
-RENEW BOND AND LEASE
ON BEAR TOP.

At a recent meeting of the directors
of the Bear Creek Mining company
plans were discussed looking to an
early resumption of operations at the
mine. The internal troubles of the
company appear to have been settled
and the outlook is favorable for har-
moniOus and successful MANAGEMENT
CT company affairs. Negotiations are
now in progress for a renewal of the
bond and lease on the Bear Top group
of claims and the indications are fav-
orable to an early contamination The
company owns the Orofino group of
claims adjoining the Bear Top and
covering the same vein The main de-
velopment is on the Bear Top where
there is a large tonnage or ore avaiIa-
bic. The ore carries a high percentage
in lead, but is low in silver this being
characteristic of North Side ore gen.
orally. The company has a mill of 100
tons capacity and is in all respects
well equipped for production.
Put in Electric Power.
Upon the conclusion of the agree
ment for the extension of the Bear
Top lease and bond, which is expected
to be accomplished at an early date.
the company will proceed at once to
extend the electric power line of the
Washington Water Power company
from Raven to the mine which will
provide electric power for the mill and
compressor The company up to this
time has used water power, but this is
not sufficient to meet requirements
throughout the year. With electric
power installed. the company will be
in position to begin production without
delay, and the present price of lead in
sures a substantial profit in spite of
the long haul to the sailroad In fact
it is expected that this haul will be
greatly shortened and made all down
hill by the time the company is ready
to begin shipments Shipments have
heretofore been hauled to the railroad
at Delta, a distance of about 10 miles
It is now proposed by timber interests
to build a logging railroad from Prich-
ard up Eagle creek. This would bring
the railroad three miles closer to Bear
Greek and give the company an all
down hill haul to the loading station at
the old town of Eagle. Net smelter re-
turns from former shipments by the
Bear Creek company aggregate s14,536. !

BYRON WILSON GOES TO
ALASKA TO TAKE CHARGE
RAE WALLACE COMPANY

At a meeting of directors of the
Rae Wallace Mining company in
this city yesterday evening Byron
Wilson, mining engineer. was
unanimously chosen superintend-
ent of all operations of the COM
pany and will Immediately take up
his duties. Mr.. Wilson is now in
Spokane and was advised at once
of the action of the directors and
will proceed to the company's
property in the Willow Creek dis
trict, Alaska. The company owns
group of claims upon which a
large tonnage of ore has been de-
velOped. and which is said to be the
most promising property in that
well known district, which is al
ready an extensive producer of
gold. A Gibson mill is on the prop
erty and it is expected that this
will be in operation this summer.
Mr. Wilson is not stranger to
Alaska, having been connected

He was long connected with the

Of DOUGLAS
NEAR HALF MILLION
SIGNIFICANT FIGURES
Indicate a Large Production
From Pine Creek When
Conditions are Right

THE POSSIBILITIES of Pine
creek as a big producer of zinc
lead ores. and particularly the
remarkable record made by the
Douglas mine during the years 1857
while operated under lease by the
Anaconda Copper Mining company. are
strikingly brought out in figures com
piled by the Douglas company in con-
nection with the adjustment of the fed
eral tax for the year 1917 The figures
are taken from the records of the Ana
conda company and may therefore be
accepted as absolutely correct. During
the year the Anaconda company ship
ped 1920 tons of crude ore, upon which
it paid the Douglas company a royalty
of SO per ton. The average metal con-
tent of the ore was % per cent zinc.
per cent lead and ounces of silver.
and the average price of metals during
the year was: Zinc OS72 cents per
pound; lead, .OSSS cents per pound, and
silver .SO9 cents per ounce
Ore shipments Half a Million.
The ore shipments to the Anaconda
company at Butte and the smelling re-
turns show these interesting and sig
nificant figures: Zinc. 1880 tons at
Sl74.4O per ton, $S45,S12; lead, 6SS.6
tons at $1,000 per ton. Sill, S93.76;
silver, 1920 tons at $4.O45 per ton, $S2.-
036.4O. Gross value of ore shipments.
SlS9,
During this period the prices of lead
and zinc were much higher than they
are now while the price Of silver was
20 cents lower. As against these high
metal prices, the cost of mining and
transportation to the railroad was also
much higher, so that an advance in
the present price of lead and zinc to
about 8 Y or 6 cents per pound, which
is regarded as quite probable before
the summer is over, would place Doug
las operation on about the same basis
from the standpoint of profits as that
during the Anaconda lease.
Douglas Fully Equipped.
These figures are convincing evil
dence of the big possibilities of Pine
creek as a mining field. The Anacon-
da company quit Pine creek in disgust,
not on account of disappointment with
Douglas ore but because of the action
of the O.-W r. & n. in abandoning
the construction of the Pine creek rail-
road following the disastrous flood in
December, 1917. The Douglas mine
has an ore shoot over 700 feet in
length on the main tunnel level with
much ore available in the Slopes. The
ore shoot has also been developed for
several hundred feet on shaft level
100 feet below. The company has
large compressor driven by electric
power and all modern equipment for
operation. 1t is one of a number of
mines on Pine creek which will re-
ipond quickly with production as soon
Is the Bunker Hill electrolytic zinc
plant is in operation and possibly
sooner if the zinc market continues to
improve.

PROFITS OF YUKON GOLD
A BIG INCREASE IN 1921
COMPANY MAKES FINE RECORD
HERCULES AND TAMARAcK
TO REPORT.

Since the publication last week Of
the net profits statement filed by min
ing companies of the Occur d'Alene
district, the Yukon Gold ompany has
filed its statement covering the opera p
tons of the year This company is en-
gagged in gold dredging on Prichard
creek and its showing of profits for
the year 1921 is in striking contrast
with that of the lead silver companies.
While these show a great slump in net
earnings, the Yukon Gold company
closed the year with a profit almost
four times that of the preceding year.
namely $62,724S6. For 1920 the net
profits were S16,6SS76. The details of
the report follow:
Tons of gravel handled. 231O669:

OF; cost of extraction. sS6,27SO7: ex-

it, $62,7S4.S6
The Yukon dredge has been in OPP
GRAFTON over four years and the profit
record for last year is next to the
highest made, the highest being in 1918
when the company earned $751; .6S
Another notable feature of the record
last year is that the ground encoun-
tered was with the exception of one
year the lowest grade. It may also he
authoritatively stated that the running
time last year was 200 hours more than
in any other year, the total material
handled was the largest, while the cost

DUFF LEASE.

Another Car is Now Being Loaded for
Shipment.
The Duff lease on the You Like vein
(Morning mine) is now loading a car
with an excellent grade of ore. this
being the fifth carload that has been
shipped. The last car netted some
thing over $1,000 and the car now being
loaded is expected to be just as good
and possibly better. The ore is chiefly
galena, with more or less gray copper
both carrying the usual high value in
silver The Duff lease includes the
ground about what is known as the
intermediate level. which is about 40
feet below the Fanny Gremm tunnel
level.
