Helena assay office has been pass
ed By the senate and now goes to
the lower house Of Congress, ac-
cording to word received by the
Journal from Senator 3. X. Wheel

mittee report
Helenas old assay office was
closed on June 30. 1888, along
with similar offices in Salt Lake
CITY and Boise, Idaho. Senator
Guffey of the senate committee
stated that the treasury department
thinks that inasmuch as smelling

Whether the treasury department

ASSESSMENT WORK
IS AGAIN DEBATED

A. Doornbos, prominent Bozeman
mining man, is making an effort to
secure moratorium on assessment
work on mining claims on the
theory that assessment work is not
an aid to defense, holding that la
Dor should be devoted to enter
prises which will assist the defense
program.
The Mining Association of Mon
tana used its influence in having
the moratoriums on annual assess
ments Of located mining claims dis
continued in both 1898 and 1893,
so the matter will probably come
up for debate at the annual meet
ing at Cooke City on Sept. and g.
Under the law such claim or
group Of claims must have 500
worth of work performed on it
each year to perpetuate the loca-
ton

TO ENCOURAGE DRILLING

Legislation has been enacted by
the federal parliament at Ottawa
empowering the minister of finance
to make agreements with operators
with a view to encouraging drilling
for oil. Details of the plan under
contemplation have not been made
public, but it is understood the
agreements will involve tax con-
cessions of various kinds. Provision
has already been made empowering
the federal oil controller to advance
funds for the same purpose.
