quarters, for further information.
The road north via Wickenburg,
Prescott to the National Old Trails
highway is passable. Motorists in

ent.
Late reports tell of considerable
snow at White River and other
White mountain points, SO the Rice

eastern Arizona and New Mexico

ing the Lordsburg fiat, in western
New Mexico This section of the
Lee highway has diverted much

ORE COMING DOWN
 FROM PORTER IDAHO

Recent visitors to the Porter Idaho report that high grade ore is coming down the hill at the rate of fifty odd sacks a day. Something over 600 sacks are already assembled at the beach landing in readiness for shipment to the shelter. Jack Rennie who holds the packing contract, is using 19 head of horses in transporting the ore to the beach.
 Work is proceeding in both the upper and lower tunnels and ore is coming down from both levels.
 The winze in the upper tun- mel is being sunk to greater depth on the ore. The winze had reached a depth of 96 feet below the surface last Monday, with the ore showing increasing values with every foot of depth. Managing di rector Clay Porter plans to continue the winze to about 100 feet before starting to drift both ways on the ore.
 Steping is in progress in the lower tunnel on two immense bodies of milling ore of 8 and F feet respectively. Both are said to be practically solid ore from wall to wall and consti- ute immensely valuable ore resources for future operat- ions.

NEW FIND ON
 BIG MISSOURI

Recent visitors to the Big Missouri report the discovery recently of two large and strongly mineralized veins of ore on one of the claims on which little if any develop ment work had been done up to the time the find was made. A unique feature of the dis covery is that it was made at point where the trail crosses the property and where the outcrops of the two leads have been walked on for
 years without their presence being discovered. The explan- ati9n is said tc lie in the fact hat the ore, although carry ing high values, shows little evidence of mineralization on the surface and also differs considerably in appearance from surface indications found elsewhere on the group. The company official, are said to have considered the find of slch importance as to warrant immediate investigation.

NEW HACKERS RESUME
 VICTORIA DEVELOPMENT

Work on the Victoria Mines properties has been resumed under the direction of Ii Horstman. A small crew is en, gagged in extending both the No. l and No. 5 tunnels. The work is being done under a contract calling for extensions aggregating 100 feet. The No. 1 tunnel is said to be in over 460 from the portal and with the heading within 50 feet o1 the promising Sunbeam vein discovered last year on the Dunwell and later traced into the Victoria properties. The proposed extension is expected to tap the vein at about 35C feet depth. The No. 5 tunne, is in about 95 feet and is eA to cut the same vein at a depth of about 85 feet, at a point several hundred feet north o1 the No. l tunnel.
 The resumption of operations is a result of arrangements made recently, whereby Sc, attle interests headed by Wm Martin, have undertaken to fl. nance future operations.

TEXAS CREEK ROAD
 SURVEY UNDER WAY

Hope for the early construct ion of wagon road into the remarkably mineralized Texas Creek section was revived last week by the announcement ol MT. Fred R. Hughes, repre-. sentative of the engineering department of the Bureau of Public Roads, that he has been instructed to make sur vey of the locality with a view to future road construction.
 MT. Hughes, has now been engaged on the survey tor some days, assisted by his brother, Palmer Hughes, and Peter Welle, and crew Of 5hree or four others.
 So far as can be learned at present, the Bureau of Pubnc Roads has no funds available :or starting a project of such character at this time. Enough money has been appropriated or completing the survey bul hat apparently is all that can oe looked for this year. How ever, the fact that the survey )f wagon road has been au ;horized is convincing evidence hat the Bureau of PubnC Roads officials are looking onward to the construction If a more convenient highway han is afforded by the present pack trail and are making preparations in accordance.

INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION BEST IN
 CAMPS HISTORY

warm sunshine giving added zest to the festive spirit of the day, Hyder celebrated Inde- pendence Day Monday with an enthusiasm never before manifested in the camps hist ory. Save for the unregretted absence of the noisy firecrack- CT, and other ear-shattering devices, the celebration was de- lightfully reminiscent of one of the old-fashioned 4th cele- brations, where everyone turn ed out and had a rollicking good time and talked about it for weeks afterward. And she residents of Hyder were not alone in their observance of the nations birthday, for The bulk of the citizens of Stewart, B. C., came over and helped their American cousins with vim and vigor; thereby making the celebration a tru- ly international affair. The international aspect was fur ther enhanced by the presence If numerous Canadian flags among the gay streamers of red, white and blue lining the principal thoroughfares and waving from every flag pole and vantage point. Practically every business house was em- oellished in some degree, while 2 number of the more import ant establishments presented decidedly handsome window displays and building decorat- ions.
 The chief feature of the cele- bration, the grand parade, was not started until somewhat later than scheduled, owing to the non-arrival of consider able number of visitors from Premier, but was far and away the largest and most ornate ever witnessed here and in- cluded a number of very hand some floats and beautifully decorated cars. Starting on Premier Avenue near the Pre- mier Go. buildings and led by Marshal of the Day T. w. Nc Donald on horseback, the pa rade included the following units: Marshal's car, hand somely decorated; Bureau of Public Road truck, containing Col. E R. Stivers, dressed most realistically as Uncle Sam; Miss Evelyn Blanton as a most effective Miss Colum- bia; Ben Oien, in service uni form and representing the Army, and Charles Barbee in the natty uniform of the Navy and representing that branch of the service; the magnificent float of the Premier Gold Min ing Company tram crew, show ing a faithful replica of the famous ore tram of the Pre- mier mine, and bearing tram way superintendent Frank Fisher and other tram offici- als; the float of the Moose heart Legion, led by nine white and purple clad Legion aires on foot; the float entered by the Forest Service Texas Creek road survey crew, and ingeniously depicting a pros pector's cabin surrounded by trees and hills, with the trans it and rods of the surveyors craft showing in the realistic
 and decidedly picturesque en- semble; float of the Bureau of
