Snowstorm Looking Good.
Walter Pittock, one of the
owners of the Snowstorm, on Bed
River, was in camp Monday and
exhibited a beautiful piece of cop
per and gold ore, which was taken
from the bottom of the sump in
the main tunnel of the property.
The specimen showed about all
colors of native copper, but by
assays made sometime ago it is
known also that the rock holds
high value in gold and silver.
The specimen was left for tbe Bus
ter people to assay.
The work on development is
going on with, at present, a small
crew of men. Tbe station is com
pleted and work on the shaft will
be started within tbe next few
days. Before forming tbe station
a crosscut was made and tbe ledge
was found to be four feet wide,
this 100 feet from the portal and

From Bluejacket Mine.
A. F. Parker is the recipient of
some choice specimens of copper
ore from the Blue Jacket mine in
Rapid river mining district which
is being developed by Frank Jobn
esse for members of the faculty of
lohn Hopking university,
ore is shot with solid chunks of
pure copper, and tbe vein for a
distance of 80 feet along tbe 400
toot level is mainly composed o*
this character of quartz. The vein
itself is from 20 to 30 feet wide and
average samples give returns of
$19.70 copper, 84.20 in gold and
82.55 in silver per ton, making a
total value of 826 45 per ton. There
is also a parallel vein being devel
oped on the 650 foot level which
shows a large body of 810 and 812
ore.
The
Connections were recently made
between the lower tunnel and the
upper workings by a raise, giving
good ventilation, and tbe main de
velopement work hereafter will be
devoted to expioition tbe main
vein from tbe several levels. Tbe
property at this time has practi
cally 150,000 tons of ore in sight,
that will average 817.50 per ton.
The final payment on this proper
' yf y will be made during the summer,
and patent proceedings will then
be instituted, and in a short time,
with tbe construction of the rail
road down Snake river, tbe Blue
Jacket will speedily assume a posi
tion as one of the largest copper
producing mines in tbe world.

the Banks are go in broke ever day,
we ought to holler ever time a

jist like the republicans did when
Grover wuz Prseident, end say
"anuther Bank has gone Republi
can" thats the way they hollerd in
'93 & '94. an i tell yon it keep us
hollerin now all the time, az ever
noozpaper we pick np ses sumthsn
about anuther big failure &c.
Talkin about expenses &c. sf the
editor uv the 8tanderd wonld look
at the cort house rekords he wood

der, I wunder if Jim Hawly ever
got twenty five thousand dollars
fur detindin a man before, I guess
nit, how about them "Incid
tala" az tbe papers calls em, about
twenty five thousand dollars fur
(hem along with the rest, talk
about gall and graft. If there wnz
ever a people who was taxed and
worked it iz the people of Idaho.
How about that Banking Bill
now up before Congress, in whose
benefit is it made? Did yon ever
see enny thing like it, when they
got reddy to make the bill what
did they do, why they jist sent
fur the Banker men, the Bankers
association NHers, and asked them
what kind of a financial bill wood

Now what you think of our Leg

The hog stealing case from

The evidence introduced was not
sufficient to bind them over to
