| survivor of the trio and in a story of
the strike states: "On Saturday night,
April IL, 1885, we camped half mile
east from the later discovery and in
the forenoon of Sunday climbed to the
summit of the mountain from where
drew rough diagram of the visible
ridges and creeks. 1t was our inten-
ton to go to Colville for supplies and
/ then continue northeast Shortly
after noon, Benoist, who was riding
ahead, hit loose rock alongside the
same trail we were following, chipping
off some valuable looking silver lead
ore. He yelled. Didn't tell you we'd
get there, Eli >"
During the next six years work was
actively carried on in mining the rich
high-grade lead-silyer ores occurring
in a large lens near the surface. The
rich ores were packed by horses to
Spokane, 80 miles, and from there
were shipped by rail to the Tacoma
smelter. Up to 1915, this property
produced over $1,0O0,0O0.00 in silver
lead ores.
In 1921, SO years later, when the
mine after yielding over a million dol
lars seemed about played out, the
richest strike of silver ore in the his
tory of the northwest was made. This
will rank with similar discoveries any
where, although some ore Of higher
grade has been found in smaller veins
in the cobalt district Of Ontario. Our
records show that in 1916, 81 tons
were shipped from the Old Dominion.
with a silver content of $4,000 ounces,
or at the rate of about $50 ounces to
the ton However, this consignment
was derived from a small streak OF
ore varying from two to six inches
wide. a showing which cannot be COM
pared to the full three feet OF 1,140-
ounce ore now exposed at the Old
Dominion. When it is remembered
that if values persist, each carload OF
forty tons would be worth close to
$4,000, some idea of the possibilities
OF the strike may be absorbed
The United Silver Copper mine near
Chewelah is leading the other copper
mines of the county in activity. This
property was located in 1896. when
the property was operated at full ca
pacity it was estimated that from 2O0
to $50 tons of rock were sent to the
mill each day.
During the war another mineral was
discovered in Stevens county wnicn
had been previously imported from
Austria and which was OF vital I'M
portance in lining steel furnaces. Inc
war meant that some substitute must
be found for magnesite, but this op-
stacle was overcome by the discovery
of rich beds of magnesite near enc

in West and Southwest,
Secretary Says.

The direct charge that stockmen
In the West and Southwest arc be-
ing compelled to submit to usury
to secure cash from local bankers

keep their ranges stocked. was made
at the Cabinet meeting Friday
by Secretary Of Interior Fall. He
said that he had information that
the cattle raisers are being COM
PEELED to pay and 10 per cent
with an added commission attached.
TO get money that has been ad-
vanced to the banks of those Sec
tions by the Treasury and allied
agencies at rates that have never
been more than per cent.
secretary Fall said that he had
been In receipt of complaints from
numerous sources. Secretary Of the
Treasury Mellon told the President
that no money had been advanced
by any OF the agencies Of the gov
eminent anywhere at a higher rate
than 81 and per cent. He de-
clared that there. was no reason
why any higher rate of interest
should be demanded when this
money was being made available
for the direct purpose of financing
the stockmen and farmers through
the present very dificult situation
in which most CT them have found
themselves.
President Deeply Interested.
President Harding was very deep
ly concerned over the report, in
view of the fact that, earlier In the
day, he had sent a request to the
various Cabinet officers to do every
thing possible-to reduce the num-
Der OF the unemployed in the coun-
try. and to stimulate in every pos
siole way all business everywhere.
the position OF the President was
that the utmost possible publicity
should be resorted to in order to
puncture any attempt at usurious
practices by any financial institu-
tons The government OF the
united States, in the opinion of the
President, cannot sanction anything
that would seem to resemble usury
and must look with the utmost dis
faVor upon any proposition to
charge q commission for securing
government funds to finance any
enterprise.
Doing All Possible.
Everything that Is being done by
the government to meet the pres
emit involved economic situation
throughout the country Is being
done, White House officials said,
without exacting any fee. There Is
no law that would seem to meet the
conditions complained OF by the
stockmen, but the President be-
lieves that II would be unthfnka bIe
that government funds should be
advanced at a low rate OF interest
to be reloaned at an excessive rate
and then to have a fee for making
the loan charged in addition. There
fore where IL Is verified that gov
eminent aided banks or bankers ar.
charging excessive interest furthsr
government loans will be with
drawn.

An enjoyable event Of the r-st
week was the studio recital on We'd
nesday evening given by five of Miss
Rawps pupils Of the summer term.
The guests were received at the
door by Misses Ruth Harrell, and
Mildred Renwick and ushered into
the wide reception hall which was for
the evening transformed into a min
iature auditorium, the music room
serving as the stage. Growing ferns
and bowls of pink crepe myrtle fur
nishcd a pretty background for the
airy frocks of the youthful players.
With the exception of Miss Tom
my yelling the entire program was
rendered by pupils who ,,ppeared
for the first time before an audience.
Rather remarkable under the cir
cun1stances was the duet and short
solo rendered by little Miss Frances
Baker, after only six weeks Of study.
Mister Joe Freed also showed un-
usual progress, having had but few

1927, formed the nucleus arounI
which this general dairy interest an;
more specifically interest IN tho
Guernsey COW, has grown. The three
excellent bulls, judged from breed
ing and type standpoint, were on the
grounds and were the object of very
much interest ard instructive discus
sion throughout the day Il was in,
de, very gratifying from the View
poin of one keenly interested in
live stock development to take par
ticular notice of the personal inter
est and eagerness to learn more of
the industry en- the part of every
farmer present-not for an instant
overlooking that same interest SO
apparent among the good women
present who play such major part

of meeting specific mention must be

comes from it, most aptly expressed
in the term personal touch" which
must play and is playing a more i'm
portant role in the DEVELOPMENT of
rural communities. Closer social
contact and more widely developed
community understanding icertairIy Y
can be attributed to just such gath

cliques and the much individualism
from the farmer class as relates to

Through this manifested spirit in the

pect dairying ard the Guernsey ccw
to add a part to greater agricultural
development.
