PEOPLE WANT COAL AND ARE
GOING TO eETIT.

John Hays Hammond, chairman of
the United States coal commission,
warns anthracite miners that the pub
lie will not tolerate a suspension of
anthracite mining this year" Whe-
ther the fault may be due to the min
ers or to the operators. the people have
had quite enough annoyance from the
source of their fuel supply The fun
damental fact is that the coal is there
and the people want it and are en-
titled to it at a reasonable price Those
connected with its production can not
indefinitely to limit the sup
ply and boost the price. There is
power enough in the government to
stop both, and it will be exercised I'M
less the miners and owners find way
out themselves.

PROMOTE MENTAL AS WELL AS
PHYSICAL HEALTH.

This is the season when school
buildings get a. thorough cleaning and
renovation in preparation for the new
year that will open in September In
looking after the physical health Of
the pupils, school officials should not
neglect their mental welfare 1t is
just as important to have a regular
overhaulng Of text books and Of
teachers as of school rooms. Unless
there is constant vigilance. unfair text
books on such subjects as history and
political economy will filter into the
school curriculum and cause much
positive harm. Our colleges are also
turning out many graduates of radical
tendencies who are entering the
teaching field and finding their way in
to the graded schools. Boards of ed
ucation must be constantly on their
guard against those menacing influ-
ences-as much so as against infec-
Iious germs that may mrk in the
school rooms.

BUSINESS MEN,

At the meeting of the board of trade
yesterday Herman }. Rossi chairman
of the finance committee to raise the
funds for the entertainment of visit
ors on the occasion of the convention
of the Pacific Coast Fire Chiefs in this
city during the week beginning Aug

it plain that the expense would be
quire large as reports indicated that
there would be a large attendance
from various states Special badges
had been ordered, band would be in
attendance from Spokane and possibly
another band from Pasadena, Cal He
felt, however that Wallace is equal
to the occasion and his committee
would soon be out to secure the ne
cessary funds.
To Work Out Details.
John c. Boyd. chief of the Wallace
fire department and chairman of the
general committee on ARRANGEMENTS
will probably call his committee to-
gether this week to work out the de-
tails for providing quarters for the
delegates and entertaining them. This
will include securing a list of rooms
in private homes to be available after
accommodations at hotels and room
ing houses have been exhausted. and
the providing of automobiles for con-
geying the visitors to various parts
IF the district. Mr. Boyd told the
BOARD that this was going to be the
biggest convention that had ever come
o Wallace He had attended a num-
Ter of conventions of the association I
md from the correspondence he had
lad with fire chiefs in the various
tates. he expected the meeting here
o show a record attendance. Many /

COPPER KING COMPANY
TO PROVE BIG ORE BODY
PLANS OUTLINED TO STOCK
HOLDERS IN LETTER FROM
THE MANAGER.

/ Harry w. ingalls,, of Mullan, secre-
tary and manager of the Copper King
Mining & Smelling company, has is
sued a letter to the stockholders in
(which they are informed of the plans
of the management to prove the ex-
tent of the ore body by diamond drill
ing This work is now being done and
it is expected that the results will jus
Itify equipment of the mine for produc-
ton. The letter follows:
Crosscut the Ore.
"Since submitting to you our last
report, dated October 81. 1922. we
have placed the lower Copper King
workings in good condition, and have
made all necessary preparations for
diamond drilling the ore bodies open
ed by the Nos. 1 and tunnels. The
drilling will be done from the lower
tunnel and will crosscut the vein sys-
tenn between the two levels. At pres
ent we have three diamond drill holes
planned which will crosscut the vein
at widely separated points over a dis
lance of 500 feet in length. At each
of these points along the lower tunnel
level we have opened quite extensive
ore shoots and we feel confident that
the diamond drill will prove body OF
ore of sufficient Importance
to warrant us in equipping the prop
erty for mining and production.
Ore on Two Levels.
1--WE have more than 1000 feet of
virgin ground between the Nos. 1 and
? tunnels which should produce enough
ore for extensive mining operations
for many years to come. Heretofore
cur efforts have been expanded on the
tunnel level to determine the Length
Of the ore deposit We have now de-
this for more than $50 feet
where the ore body varies from four
feet wide to as high as 80 and 40 feet
n the widest place. The vein is in st.
Regis and Revett quartzites and the
IRE deposit is similar in character to
III the other mines of the district. our
leXt logical step is to prove the con-
inuity of the ore deposit between the
wo levels. and this work can be done
more cheaply by diamond drill than
~ any other method. We feel conf
lent it will be successful because we

WEST HUNTER COMPANY
CROSSCUT NEAR VEIN
SECURES RENEWALS OF VALU-
ABLE RIGHTS FROM AM
ERIcAN COMMANDER.

The annual meeting of the West
Hunter Mining company will be held
in this city on July 25, when, in addi-
ton to the election of a board of di-
rectors plans will be considered with
the view to more extended develop
ment operations at the property. The
company has a well located group of
claims lying across Mill creek about
mile north of Mullan. the main de-
yelopment of which is a crosscut from
the lowest tunnel of the American
Commander, on the east side of Mill
creek. More recently some work has
been done on the west side of the
creek for the purpose of locating the
vein, the purpose of the management
being to explore the vein on that side
at about the same eleYation as No.
tunnel of the independence. which it
joins on the south A letter to the
stockholders of the West Hunter com
pany has just been issued by r. b
.Cosgrove, president, in which he says:
Crosscut Near Vein.
"Since my last report to you a large
amount of development work has been
done on your property with favorable
results Work on our crosscut from
the main American Commander tun-
mel was suspended last fall owing to
the fact that our lease had expired. Z
otherwise we no doubt would have /
been in under our surface showing. /
which shows 1000 feet above our pres
ent objective.
AS new lease has been secured /
from the American Commander man
agement for the use Of their lower
tunnel for another year. it places a
greater value upon your property for
the reason that if the West Hunter
had to drive a new tunnel to where
work was last suspended it would cost
$4,000. 1t will be gratifying for you
