Hanley said all but rs mainten-

since it was reopened last July after
a 100000 zinc mill was complet-

MONTAHANS
PROTEST CUT
IN TARIFFS

HELENA-The Last Chance
Gulch Mining association, through
its president. Lars Carlson, sent a
protest to U. S. Senator Jane E.
Murray against including mines pro-
ducts. with special reference to lead
and zinc. in the list of commodities
for possible tariff reductions.
The protest follows:
I'VE are advised that in the list
of commodities for possible tariff
reduction through the negotiation
of a reciprocal trade treaty with
Canada, lead-bearing ores, fine dust
and MATES of all kinds, lead bull
lion, pigs and bars, and zinc-bear-
ing ores of all kinds and zinc
blocks, or slabs are included.
THE Last Chance Gulch Mining
association of Helena is vigorously
opposed to a reduction in the tariff
on either lead or zinc, and we wish
to enter our most emphatic protest
against any reduction of the tariff
on these metals.
THE metal mines of our district
have already suffered a serious
blow from the reduction of approx
mately II per cent in the price Of
domestic newly-mined silver. We
feel that any reduction in the tariff
on lead and zinc will be an addi-
tional and critical blow TO metal
mining not only in our district but
in Montana and throughout the West
as well.
I'VE I4ll to see wherein it is
necessary to improve the American
markets for the benefit of foreign
producers of silver, lead, zinc and
other metals, and this at a time
when American producers are be-
set with the highest production
costs and taxes. The decline of en-
ployment is already serious, and
the lowering Of metal tariffs can
result only in further unemploy
ment and in reduced production.
I'VE trust that it will be possible
to maintain the existing tariffs on
lead and zinc in particular, and we
respectfully urge your earnest eff
forts to protect the metal mining
industry and ITS employment"

DREDGING OPERATION

MISSOULA-Placer mining oper-

critics on Burdette creek, at the
head of Fish Greek on the Lolo
forest. with dredges probably being
brought into the region for the dig
ging of precious metals.
Test holes have revealed indica-

planned. Extensive work has been
done at the site by T. v. Anreiter,

The Fish creek region has been
prospected intensively during past
years. but the present development
is the first one of considerable size
to be made there.

PETROLEUM TAX BILL
INCREASED

The petroleum tax bill, paid by
the industry and its customers,
reached a record high OF s1,312,-
935,361 in 1897, an increase of
more than 10 percent over the
.$1.18O,876,256 collected in 1886
by the federal, state, and local
governments according to prelimi-
nary estimates made by the Am
erican Petroleum Industries Com
mittee. This tax bill for 1887, the
Committee points out, is equal to
the annual total of all taxes col
lected in the United States at the

SUGGESTS B. A. May
REOPEN REFINERY

OTTAWA-Probability that the
Coutts refinery Of the British-Ameri-
can Oil company will resume opera
ton on Montana crude was the de-
duction from testimony of F. A.
Gaby, vice president Of that com
pany. in the tariff board hearing
here. Despite the fact that British
American has interests in wells cap
able of producing 5000 barrels of
oil in Turner Valley, it would be
far more profitable to operate the
Coutts plant, located at the end of
Toronto pipeline, in Montana crude
which, Gaby said, can be bought
for from IS to 80 cents per barrel.

to the opinion that Unere is luck IN
mining says the Denver Mining
World We incline to the belief
that good geology and persistent
work make more mines than Lady
Luck
Most everyone familiar with the
bonanza history of Colorado mining
is familiar with the richness Of the
famous Cresson property in the
Cripple Greek gold district. That Is
the property that produced a ship
ment from its famous vug on the
18th level that was the richest ship
ment ever made from Colorado
mine. The shipment comprised $50
tons of ore and brought a check
from the smelter for $468,637, or at
the rate of 1924 ton.
The CressOn was a hungry look
ing prospect for years before its big
strike was made. A group of insur-
ance men in Chicago backed the
company and were getting mighty
tired putting up money every month
to carry on development. They
struck a little ore at around 500
feet and struck bonanza values at
1000 feet They stuck and they won,
and won big. The Cresson mine.
since that big discovery by the little
group of insurance men, has paid
about S13.OO0.OOO in dividends.
The most wonderful strike in the
Cresson was made in a drift on the
18th level. A round of shots broke
into a vug or cavern in the noun
tain and that vug was a veritable
Aladdin cave of free gold and syl-
vanite. The round of shots opened
the vug at the bottom and the free
gold and slyvanite flowed from the
hole like grain from a bin. The first
man to enter the vug said it was
truly the highgrader's dream. The (
walls were brilliant yellow. reflect T
ing the light from the magnesium
tapers. The gold was not furnished
as the air had been excluded and
the vug was as it had been for mill
lions of years. The hackers of the
Cresson enterprise found that mining
does reward persistence for they
made fortunes by backing the hun
CRY looking prospect at Cripple

MISS0ULA GROUP
SELLS IDAHO MINE
TO The GOLDONNA

KALISPBLL-POston Bros. OF
Kalispell, highway contractors, and
Percy Goodwin of Troy have pur-
chased the mining property of the
Maxville Gold & Silver Mining Co.
at Maxville, Idaho, for 100000, &C
cording to Victor Koerner, Salmon
City mining man.
Most of the stock in the former
owning company was held by Mis-
soula investors. The sale was on a
bond and lease basis with a 10 per
cent royalty being the means of pay
ment. The newly formed company,
incorporated in Helena recently, is
the Goldonna Mining Co.
Former owners spent 100000 in
developing the property, in 1000
feet of tunnel and sinking shafts.
They were ready to produce ore
when the depression hit in 1880.
and loss of their mill compelled
them to cease operations.
The Goldonna company is INSTALL
ing a new transformer, motors and
ball mill, and making ready to sink
three more shafts. Much equipment
left by the Maxville Gold & Sill
yer Co. is ready for use.
Dr.. Charles H. Clapp was geOlo-
gist for the local mining group. and
reported that 100000 tons of ore
could be extracted. The mine is
mainly a silver producer, though
considerable gold also is to be min
ed there.
Ten men are at work on the
property, and the crew will be in
creased to 40 or so soon, Koerner
states.
