Report Boosts Boundary
County Mining Outlook

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, Moscow.
Geological conditions in Boundary
county are similar to those in the
famous Occur d'Alene mining district
and it is not illogical to expect that
ore bodies of sufficient size and metal
content to justify commercial devel-
opment will be found in the future,
according to the press announcement
of the survey of the mineral resources
of the county, undertaken by the
Idaho State Bureau of Mines and
Geology Little knowledge Of actual
mineral content of the county is avail
able as most of the western portion
of the district has not been explored.
Practically all of the mining develop
ment to date has been subsequent to
early "Reminiscences by Daily of the
Canadian geological survey and Calk-
ms Of the U. S. geological survey.
Gold, silver, tungsten, lead, zinc, cop
per and molybdenum are found in
varying quantities in the various
veins found in the county. About
seventeen of the more important
mining properties in the region where
visited by v. R. D. Kirkham and
Ernest w. Ellis, biologists of the
Idaho bureau.
LESS than one-third of the area"
says the summary Of the general
geological conditions of the county,
lis covered by sedimentary or meta
morphosed rocks. All ranges contain
tilted metamorphic rocks. Quantities,
argillites, schists and dolomites pre-
dominate. The ST.. Regis, Revett,
Burke and Prichard formations found
in the Occur d'Alene and western
Montana regions are found in the
eastern part of the county. These
are Of the Algonkian age. An older
metamorphic series dips westward
from the granite core of the Selkirks
on the west side of the range. This
series is as yet unnamed and uncor-
related with other. Idaho formations
but probably is pre-Algonkian> in age.
A series of greatly altered schists ap.
pear just west Of Lake Occur d'Alene.
They dip toward the batholith and are
stratigraphically the lowest forma-
lions in the region.
"Quaternary lake-bed and glacial
deposits found in the valleys of all
streams constitute the only un-
metamorphosed sediments in the
region. These are unconsolidated
flat-lying deposits of meager thick
ness"
Boundary county comprises 40
townships in the Idaho Panhandle
and is bounded by Canada on the
north, by Washington and Montana
on the west and east, and by Bonner
county on the south. Comparative
inaccessibility Of this region has re-
tarded somewhat the development of
many properties, the bureau believes.
The Idaho Continental mine at Port
Hill is the outstanding producer of
the area. This property has to ita
credit a production Of several million
dollars in lead and silver. The Cya-
hide Golding Mining company, near
Bonners Ferry, has an enterprise and
is about to begin production.

This Bird Is Ugly

Among the many curious birds &C.
curing in Africa those conspicuous
for their beauty have frequently been
pictured, says Nature Magazine. The
shoe bill, which is unique in Its out
ward appearance and in its physical
characteristics, probably holds the
palm for ugliness.

that RodRer Presbury, of evil mem
ory, Inhabited these rooms points to
some deeper reason. Well, Watson,
we can but posses our souls in pa
tience and sec what the hour may
bring"
That hour was not long in striking.
We crouched closer in the shadow
as we heard the outer door open and
shut. Then came the sharp metallic
snap of key and the American was

softly behind him, took a sharp

on which IL rested, rolled IL complete

Presently we heard the sound Of
sliding boards and an instant later
a square had opened in the planks.
Killer Evans struck a match. lit a

die of bank notes of high denomina-
tion had been found in the pocket
of her coat at the bank. The news
papers said she was a girl who had
no special call to work. Her parents
were well-to-do, and her fance, g.
rising young architect, had qualified
as her bondsman in court and secured
her temporary freedom. Like other
girls in good circumstances, she had
been ambitious to do something, hav-
ing been active in canteen work dur
ing the war She protested her limo

against her seemed conclusive.

he was SO intent upon il that he
went to his Office after dinner TO

That evening Blanche had a visitor
Grace BelIair herself. She had come

had wished to accompany her
Blanche saw in her a young woman
of strong character.
II understand you are a lawyer"
said the visitor, "and I had an i'm
pulse to tell you my story, although
you are the wife Of the district at
torney." The story she told was Of
details that the newspapers could
not get.
Blanche at once saw a remarkable
possibility in it. Don't engage a
lawyer" she said to the girl. II shall
appear for you IN court, but you must
keep 1t secret. In the meantime !

Grace Bellair was duly arraigned
for trial. II appear for the prisoner"
said Blanche, coming forward. The
courtroom was so crowded that her
presence had not been noted. Dens-

The judges favorably noted the ap-

enough even to astonish them. II

Blanche, that the theft of this
money was not committed by the

She turned and gave a signal and
a noted detective appeared with Il

he had taken the money from a safe

Colossal Infamy

.E@7IXTEEN months ago Senator Walsh
= wormed out of E. L. Doheny the startling
information that he had secretly delivered
little black bag containing 100000 to Secre-
tary of the Interior Fall, while the two OF them
were in the midst of negotiations for naval
oil leases t
That was the high spot in the Tea Pot
Dome investigation. The country suddenly
awoke to the full significance of the sordld story
which the Senate committee had been unfold
ling little by little for some months before
Doheny was trapped.
,5a But as time wore on, and as Doheny's and
Harry Sinclair's commercial relations with
Fall receded into the past, the public was
deluged with propaganda from the oil mag
mates headquarters to the effect that the oil
investigation was nothing but politics, that
once the oil cases were removed from the
biased atmosphere of the Senate, Doheny and
Sinclair would stand revealed as patriots
who had done the country great service. The
public was asked to withhold Judgment until
the court had spoken.
And now the court has spoken. A Federal
Judge, after many months of study of the
Doheny lease, has found that Fthe injury done
the Nation cannot be overestimated. This
colossal infamy, regardless of whether it was
bride, a gift or loan, requires this court in
conscience to strike down the deals which are
connected with it, s4E
s.,,v And what is Dohenys answer? He in
Structs his lawyers to appeal to still higher
courts. And yesterday Doheny, after being re-
indicted in Washington for alleged conspiracy
against the Government, could only take refuge
behind his old plea that the oil cases were
born of politics.

ruled fraudulent was made over three years

Not So Very Terrible

H. McLAURIN, president of the Ameri-
- can Wholesale Grocers Association, has
just created more or less sensation by declar-
ing loudly that food manufacturers and whole
salers have descended into an orgy of greed
and have lost sight of the great American con-
sumner and his interests have departed from
the ways of thoughtful, God-fearing, man
loving men" and in so doing have endangered
the American Preside.
To all of which the great American con-
sumner reacts with cautious and knowing
wink.
1t sounds tragic, but there's ray of hope
A careful perusal CT Mr. McLaurin s
speech reveals that the major crime of the
'double-crossing manufacturer has been
the discovery that he can sell food directly to
retailers without first selling to the whole
saler or jobber and letting him add his cost
of operation, overhead and profit to the price
of food.
Mr.. McLaurin wants to know what will be-
come Of the peepul and the American home if
this condition continues
Just this, Mr.. McLaurn When this
strange new practice of eliminating the mid
deman is more generally adopted, the peepul
will pay little less for their food That s all.
