Inc close OF Cno year Is dlW .
a time for serious thought and
reflection. The past crowds up
on us at such time with far
more than usual intensity and
especially forces upon our at
tention our faults. failures and
mistakes. Let US look them
squarely in the face and profit by
them. The wise man always does
this, but the fool never. The
latter goes on committing the
same follies and making the same
mi stakes, never proftiDgby his
experience, to say nothing of the
experience of others. Everyone
makes mistakes. 1t may not be
their fault the first time, but it
is if they make the same mis-
take the second time. We be-
lieve the secret of success with
those who succeed. and the cause
of failure with those who fail,
be found largely in the ability
and disposition to study the
cause of both success and failure,
not only in ones own experience
but in that of others. And while
we are about this business we
should look just as carefully in
to our record of moral RESPONSE
bility. We should be far more
anxious to improve character,
mind and morals than to i'm
prove our business. Serious
study of our weak points and of
means to strengthen them is a
very profitable business at any
time, and if pursued assjduously
will strengthen all that is good
and admirable in our nature, and
make US better, stronger and
nobler men and women as the
years go by. And the time will
come in the life of every one of
US, when such a record OF honest,
earnest, persistent effort to ina
prove will afford far greater sat
isfaction than anything else in
his account with the world. We
can wish no better thing for all
our readers than that they be-
gin the new year animated by q
firm resolve to turn all its eX-
periences into profit for them
selves, mentally, morally. soc
tally and materially, and then to
faithfully carry out the resolu-
ton.
The days, weeks and years slip
away like wafer in running
stream. +. Times great clock
never loses moment. Relent-
lessly the moments pass and our
eager hands are not able to de
tain them We cannot keep hack
the flying years, but W. can and
should keep the blessings the
bring. Hold fast to the lessons
they have taught. Keep the
memory of their joys. We can
enrich every day Of our life with
wealth Of days behind.

STRIKE ON OREANO
-FOUR FEET Of ORE

West on the Ore
EXTENSION OF SHERMAN

FOR THE past week or two much
- interest has been conferred in
the crosscut being driven by the
Oreano Mining company. for its
objective was the western extension
of the sherman vein in which a good
showing of ore had been developed.
The course of the vein west indicated
that it would enter the Oreano ground
near the corner of the Sinker claim
and about $50 feet from the face Of
the west drift in the sherman The
ore was struck in the Sherman sew
eral years ago by crosscutting from
the Oreano tunnel following which
drifts We're run east and west alto
gether about $50 feet. The east drift
followed two strong stringers of ore.

.ST.LAWRENCE. RICHM' Nd
AND ALLEGED MERGER
STATEMENT BY H. j. RoSSl SAYS
THERE AMT NO SUCH
THING.

Much has been said through the
Spokane press in recent weeks re-
garding the merging of the St Law
renee Copper Mining company and
the Richmond Mining, Milling Il Re
duction company and it has been an
nounced that the merger has actually
been accomplished. In reprintins one
of these announcements coming from
the st. Lawrence side few weeks
ago the Miner called attention to the
fact that over half of the essential
st. Lawrence claims were held under
option by IL. j. ROssi and that that
gentleman had not been consulted re-
garding the much talked of consoli-
dation. But that seems to be a mat
ter of no consequence to the promot-
ers of the merger. The other day the
Miner received from a brokerage COM
pany in New York letter enclosing a
report to Richmond stockholders out
lining plans for prosecuting the
Richmond-St. Lawrence vein from
the Montana-Idaho tunnel, followed
by report on the Richmond by b. n.
Sharp. managing director. The letter
from the New York brokers refers to
this report, which he urges prospect
i've investors in Richmond stock to
read carefully, and says:
Control of ST. Lawrence.
"Since this report was issued nego-
tiations have been completed for con-
troll of the adjoining property, the St
Lawrence Copper Mining company,
which will give these two companies
a total length on the vein of approx
mately from 1000 to 5000 feet"
1t is quite impossible to reconcile
this statement with the statement
made by Mr. Rossi, who still holds his
option and who has never been ap-
preached on the proposition to con-
solidate with the Richmond In fact
the publication of these reports tends
to interfere with his plans fer hand
ling the property under his option and
is also misleading to the public re-
garding the ownership of the st. Law
renee. In order to clear up the situa-
ton. Mr.. Rossi has sent the following
notice for publication in a Spokane
newspaper:
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1923-05-24
To the Public.

Frequently published statements
given out by officers of the Richmond
Mining, Milling & Reduction company
would convey the false impression
that the absorption Of the st. Law
renee Copper Mining company would
transfer to the Richmond company
from 5000 to 1000 feet of the Rich
mond-St. Lawrence vein.
THE facts are: 1 own or control a
one-half interest in the St Lawrence
lode claim and a two-thirds interest
in the Silver Lake lode claim and any
merger as published will control but a
small portion of the real ore bearing
ground since I will not consider trans
ferring my rights for shares of either
company or any merger of either COM
pany.

Find Four Feet Of Ore.

Tlnu Touf rect OF Ofe.
After driving about $50 feet the
drills entered ore last Sunday and
when the round was broken it was
found that the vein had been pene-
trated about two feet. all in ore and
with ore in the face. That was the
news which reached Wallace Monday.
Since then the crosscut has been ex-
tended apparently through the vein.
showing an ore shoot four feet thick,
all of good milling grade. with streaks
and lunches of clean galena. Cross
cutting is being continued to prospect
the ground a short distance, follow
ing which drifting will start west with
every indication that the ore shoot will
prove continuous and of equally good
or better grade From the point of
| intersection to the west end of Ore
ano ground is about 1900 feet. and the
strike was made at a vertical depth
from the surface Of about 600 feet.
The company owns five patented
claims situated high on the slope of
the divide between Burke and the
west fork of Nine Mile, making it
possible to develop the property at
great depth by tunnel. The Oreano
has for neighbors the sherman and
Tamarack on the north and east, the
famous old Standard Mammoth on
the west and the West Hecla on the
southeast.
In Rich Mineral Section.
1t will thus be seen that OreanO is
situated in the midst of a rich min
eral section and all conditions are
favorable to the persistence of the ore
to great depth. The ore exhibited is
a clean galena, free from zinc and
probably carries an amount of silver
unusual in that section. The presi-
dent of the company and largest
stakeholder is II. NJ Peterson. of this
city, and John Dolan is secretary. The
work which has resulted in striking
this splendid ore shoot was done I'M
der the direction of Chas H. Fore
man. of Burke, chief engineer for the
Hecla Mining company who is also
large stakeholder.
