Men WORKING ON
HUGHESVILLE MINE

There is probability that proper
ties OF the St. Joseph Lead company
at Hughesville will be reopened yet
thi year, according to Elon Davis,
a mine owner in Hughesville district.
Eight men are now working in the
Block T mine, re-timbering and
cleaning out the workings, prepare
tory to resumption. The mill has
already been put in readiness and
should have been operating except
for the inability of the Great Falls
zinc plant to handle the concentrates
at this time. 1t is understood,
Davis says, that st. Joseph Lead is
preparing to ship its zinc concen-
trates to Wallace, Idaho, while
the lead concentrates will go to the
A. S. & r. smelter at East Helena.
Davis declares the recent strike
of an 11-foot zinc-lead vein near
as one of the most
developments of the year.
The ore is almost pure lead and
zinc-5O per cent each. A mill
will shortly be built to handle this
pre-, he says.

CLANCY OPERATION

In the Clancy Greek, near Clan
cy. Montana, HUMPHREYS Gold Cor
poration is operating a large wash
ing plant, handling between 1000
to 5000 cubic yards per day. The
company had a r. F. c. loan for
S25O,OOO.0O which has been al
ready repaid, and is reported to
be making some $4,000 net per
day. The plant consists Of three
three-yard dragline shovels, a large
washing plant, with trommel and
the coarse gravel Is taken out by
a long belt conveyor stacker. The
fine mud is pumped to a washing
tower and run over specially built
sluice boxes, lined with rubber riff
files. A second dragline handles the
mud to a secondary washing plant
to reclean the mud A small show
ell of one-half yard capacity, keeps
the bitches open for the mud to
run freely to the washing plants.
The gravel seems to be very full of
clay. The equipment is operated by
and very efficiently. I'M

PLACER OUTFIT
IS MOVING INTO
ECLIPSE GULCH

Trucks passed through Shelby
this week en- route to Eclipse Gulch
in the Sweetgrass Hills carrying
placer equipment which win be used
to work the famous 80racre gravel
bar in which is located Two Bit
GuIch". This gulch, near the Buck
ct of Blood Saloon. is where an old
timer could get the price of a
drink by using a shovel and pan,
any time he didn't have the coin
of the realm with which to buy.
The bar has never been worked
because of the lack of water P
C. McHale and associates OF Shelby
plan to truck the gravel down, US
ing three trucks, to a point where
water can be pumped up to plac-
er machine. A new Marion dragline
and a Twin City washing plant,
with revolving screen, will be used.
The company is known as Eclipse
Gulch Mining Co.
The bar has been systematically
pit-tested and is said to show uni
formly distributed values, rather
than bedrock concentration.

Favors u. S. Lump Sum
Based on Property
Held Unfaxed

A "new deal' for House treat
ment Of District appropriations ap-
peared on the horizon today when
the personnel of the House District
Appropriations sllbco committee for
the current session was announced,
with Representative Ross Collins
CD, of MISSISSIPPI, as chairman.
Neither the MissisSippian nor
other members served on the sub
committee last session, but Collins
is as familiar with details of the
District fiscal set-up as any man
in Congress. When he formerly
was a House member he served on
the subcommittee four years and
took an active part in that work.
One Republican
Named to serve with Collins are
Representatives Millard F. Cald-
well of Florida, John P. Higgins of
Massachusetts, and Joseph Starnes
of Alabama, Democrats, and AL
bert Engel of Michigan, Repub-
lican.
Members of the subcommittee
during the stormy session last
year either were defeated in the
election or have been given other
assignments.
p While Collins today was non
committal on policies he gave
some hope to District residents
with the statement:
'I am of the opinion that the
Government should make a con.
tributiOn to the District based
ON what it would have to pay
in taxes on its property in the
city"
He emphasized, however, that he
believed the Federal Government
should pay an amount based on a
reasonable assessment"

made studies of this proposition
are that the Federal Government
has property in Washington valued
at six hundred million dollars, but
