HIGH SCHOOLS ON
ACCREDITED LIST

Idaho county now has three
accredited high schools, Grange
Vile, Cottonwood and Kooskia.
Heretofore Grangeville has been
the only accredited high school
in the county, but as a result
of a recent visit to Idaho coun-
ty schools by Miss Ethel Redi-
field, state high school inspector,
Kooskia and Cottonwood have
been placed on the accredited
list. This means that graduates
of these schools may enter the
University of Idaho, or other
higher educational institutions
in the state without examina-
tons.

Campbell Holds Transports
ton Lack Is Industry's
Handicap


est counties in the state in diversity
of mineral resources and mining op-
portunitieS says Stewart Campbell,
state mine inspector, in his annual
report for 1923. Lack of transporta-
ton is the greatest handicap to min
ing in Idaho county, Mr.. Campbell
relates. In the report are listed 1SS
separate mining properties in Idaho
county, many of which are dormant
assessment work only being done.
GOI.D-PRODUCING AREA
'aThis county is one of the largest
in the state" Inspector CampbelPs
report reads, "and one of the great
est in diversity of mineral resources
and mining opportunities. During
the early days of Idaho it was one
of the largest gold producing dis
tricts in the United States, and at
this time offers more possibilities for
profitable gold mining than any other
section of equal extent.
MANY of the millions produced were
won from the placer deposits. These
deposits occur in practically all of
the seventeen mining districts within
the county; and excepting the fiat ly-
ing lands, which could not be hydrau-
licked, all of them are exhausted. The
fiat land and river bottoms can only
be handled by dredging and many of
these areas fully justify investigation.
There appears to be no reason why
they Should not contain gold in COM
mercial quantities. but this fact can
only be determined by proper pros
pecting methods which have never
been applied to many of them.
TRANSPORTATION NEEDED
ssThe greatest handicap which Idaho
county has to undergo is the lack of
adequate transportation. Railroads
into the various mining districts are
far removed possibility; however, a
good automobile or motor truck road
would serve to open up many of the
districts which are now practically
dormant. Much of the ore is free
milling gold, and if not, high grade
concentrate could be made that would
permit a long haul. This is particr-
larly true in reference to the Harp
ster. Ten Mile, Orogrande, Elk City,
Buffalo Hump, and Dixie districts
Completion of the highway up the
South Fork of the Clearwater river
would make all of these districts ac-
cessible by a water grade road and
their development would follow i'm
mediately. Under present road con-
ditions only the highest grade free
milling ores can be successfully
handled
"An expenditure of approximately
$2400OO has been made on this pro
jected highway, and this entire outlay
is a total loss unless the road is COM
pleted. In addition to opening up a
vast mineral district, there are many
other arguments which can be al
vanced to justify the construction OF
this highway at an early date.
REVIVAL IN MINING
"The gradual return to normal
conditions under which gold mining
| is again becoming profitable was re-
f1ected in this county during the year
by a small though substantial in
crease in mining operations, investl'
cations and new enterprises started
The ore developed, discoveries made
and veins proved at additional depths
added further to this interest.
"The principal gold mining opera
lions in this county are those OF the
