Carrying Out Important Development

Since taking over the property of
the Silverado Mining company, a
short distance below Osborn, the
Lincoln Mining company, under the
direction of w. f. Newton, has ac-
complished much in the way of pre-
liminary WORK and in actual under
ground development. The latter con-

which Mr. Newton estimates should
be reached in about 1926 feet 65 feet
of which has now been accomplished.
This work will now be delayed prob
ably a week or ten days on account
of a cave in the old tunnel which oc-

veins passing through the Lincoln
ground, the middle one of which cor
responds to the Polaris, and it was
upon this that development work was

ore and which was followed by the

Newton, who was formerly superin- /
tendent of the Sunshine Mining COM /

Boy vein, is directing his efforts to-
ward the development of that famous

a body of characteristic high grade
in Lincoln ground. He is also giving
attention to the third vein which was
intersected about $50 feet from the

AUTOMOBILE TAX AND FEDERAL
AID HIGHWAYS.

In a recent address before the In
vestment Bankers association, Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wallace gave some
interesting figures regarding federal
aid in the construction of highways.
Opposition TO the system is frequently
heard the contention being that it is
simply robbing Peter to pay Paul,
meaning that money appropriated by
the federal government to build roads
is simply handing back to the people
in the form of road improvements
what they had already paid in taxes
In other words. the people are taxed
to build federal aid roads, whereas it
would be more economical and salts
factory for the people to tax them
selves direct for the specific road pro-
jects in which they are interested. 1t
is claimed that under the federal aid
system the people often vote to CO.
operate with the government in road
construction far beyond their ability
to pay, under the mistaken notion that
they are getting something from the
government for nothing.
Now comes Secretary Wallace and
effectually explodes this stock argu-
ment against federal aid in highway
construction. He points out that the
government receives from the people |
who are most interested in road i'm
provement the automobile owners, far |
more than its expenditures on federal /
aid highways. This comes through /
the tax on automobiles, automobile
and passenger automobiles.
He pointed out that the present tax
on motor vehicles tires and access
series is 5 per cent on the selling
price. except motor trucks. which are
taxed at per cent. This tax brought
to the government $4,000, 900 in the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1928, and
Turing the same fiscal year the gov
aifiiiieht expended ON highways only
i72,OOO,OOO. Since the tax was first
evied in 1917 the government has
collected s5Ss,OOO,OOO from sales of
motor vehicles. but has expended only
265. 100000 in public highway con-
truction. These figures show that
wners and operators of motor We
iicles are paying in federal taxes more
han double the amount the govern I
nent is spending in aiding construc-
ion Of public highways

In line with Mr. Rossrs suggestion,
which was unanimously adopted.
No Advance in Rent.
Mr.. Mccarthy said that he had
heard that rents had been recently
advanced in Wallace as a result of
house shortage, and if so he felt that
business men should protest against
such a policy. President Rossi said
that his company was agent for a
large number of houses and he could
say that there had been no increase
in rents. He called upon C. w
Walker and G. A. Mortimer who are
also agents for many houses, both of
whom stated that there had been no
advance.

TO RESTORE
TRAIN SERVICE
CONTINUED from Page IL

AONANAhNNN AAOAA eN60 ~
:
some fifteen years ago when the
business men of Wallace guaranteed
the Northern Pacific against loss in
operating the Saturday evening train,
and commended the action of the
company in releasing the business men
from the obligation after a year, con-
tinuing the service in spite of con-
tinuous loss. He favored the restora-
ton of the service as proposed, but
thought the business men should pro-
vide a guarantee. He moved that a
special committee of five be appointed
to take up the matter with the utili-
ties commission and the railroad COM
pany on the basis outlined.
G. w. Walker spoke in favor of the
train service and pointed out its great
advantages 10 Wallace.
f. F. Mackey opposed guaranteeing
the railroad company against loss If
people do not patronize the trains, he
contendsd that it was not up to the
business men of Wallace to make
good the loss. A. ]. Dunn agreed /
with Mr.. Mackey, and stated that the /
public is entitled to the service.
T. II. owen opposed a guarantee I
and stated that the people are entitled 4
to the service. He broadened the
subject by pointing out that both the
Northern Pacific and O.-W. r & N
should be required to join in provid-
ing a service morning and afternoon
and by which both would avoid con-
fict with the eight hour day He
favored a plan that would include
both railroads.
Include Both Railroads.
President Rossi agreed with Mr. {
owen. He said it was unfair to the !
Pacific to require 1t TO carry I
he load alone. He said the O.-W. '
R. & n had probably received larger a
eturns in the way of other classes !

ad done nothing toward providing
service in the canyon. It T.

Wardner-K Kellogg News: An early
resumption of mining and milling
operations at the Nabob property on
Pine creek is indicated by the arrival
of new machinery for the mill and
other equipment for use both under
ground and on the surface. A crew
of about 20 men is now employed
about the property, part of whom
are developing ore and getting slopes
in shape for a steady tonnage for the
mill. With the mill equipped to handle
the lead-zinc ore from the mine it is
stated the property can be operated
at a profit and heavy
tonnage forwarded to the smelters
each month.
