Kendall, Montana, December 23, 1902. 3. • • • STAMP MILL RI BIG INDIAN Working Low Grade Ores at a Profit Mining News in the Helena Dis- trict—Some Copper Claims Bonded The successful operation of the Big Indian sixty stamp m. demonstra- tes the fact that the low grade ores in the district adjacent to Helena can be worked at a profit, says the Helena Record. T. M. Tyler recently bonded a group of copper cirims west of the Over- land mine and located on the same mineral zone as the Whitlatch-Union and Big Indian mines, and is pushing its, development with a large force of men. A new boarding house is be- ing erected and a shaft house is go- ing up at the mine. it is Mr. Tyler's intention to continue to work the mines all winter. Raleigh Wilkinson has secured a bond and lease on the Gold Leaf group, located on the divide between Lump and Glancy creeks, fifteen m:les south of Helena. lie has taken in supp—es for the winter and expects to have quite a lot of shipping ore on the dump by spr.ng. The mine is now worked through a 300 -Loot tun- nel and an up -raise of eighty feet to the surface. The first-class ore car- ries $35 in gold and silver, and pock- ets of rich gold ore are frequently encountered. One of these yielded $368 in gold by panning. Carrier & Cleg are working on a group of claims locatea one mile south of the Overland and known as the Gold Book group. There are two claims, both carrying granite dyke leads more than 100 feet in width. Running parallel through the dyke are a number of seams carrying in the neighborhood of $200 in gold to the ton. Four of these veins have - been opened. The dyke will be cross- cut and tested to ascertain if it can be profitably worked or not. A WOOLEN MILL FOR BILLINGS. A Movement Started to Procure Money for a Big Factory Eastern Montana will have a wool- en mill and a woolen clothes manufac- turing establishment if plans now be- ing negotiated do not miscarry. Min- nesota woolen mill men have been in Billings consulting with a number of local capitalists with a view to in- stalling such an establishment, or. rather, two separate concerns, in this city. They have visited Oregon and Washington cities, but have decided that L4ilings is a more suitable place for a woolen mill than can be found in any of the other northwestern states. Here wool can be bought at home, as Billings is widely known as the largest wool shipping point in the world, the shipments of the past sea- son aggregating more than 15,000,000 pounds. They desire the co-operation. of local capitalists, and propose to organize a stock company. They have an offer from a city of Washington, but will not accept if they can secure purcnasers for a certain amount of stock in the woolen mill and clothes manufactory to be located here. Tne establishing here of a woolen mill and factury would mean much for Billings, not only In the labor it would employ, but also owing to the fact that it would open a good home market for the raw wool shipped from here annually. The woolen goods manufactured would have a broad territory for its market. From this point the establishment could com- mand the market east and west. It would supply the southern markets by the Burlington route and could easily supply the trritory north of here and that part of Canada acces- sible by way of Great Falls. SEATTLE OVERDONE. It I. a Lively Towil But Too Many People Flock There \Seattle is a great town and full of busy people,\ said Sheriff Jeff O'Connell in Helena a few days ago, \but there are hundreds of them who have no work and no money, and their lively time consists in a rustle or something to eat.\ Sheriff O'Connell recently returned from a several days' trip to Seattle. He went over in company with Dep- uty United States Marshal M. H. Wall, who had in charge the eignt Chinese recently ordered deported by United States Commissioner Frank P. Sterling. The ship carrying the Chinese back to their native land will leave Seattle today. Continuing the sheriff said: \It is cheaper living in Helena than it is in Seattle. House rents are not so high, and eatables are much lower in price than in the coast city. I know one man there who is working for $50 a month. He pays $30 of that for house rent. He is a man who in years past commanded a good salary in Mon- tana.\ Sheriff O'Connell met a large num- ber of former Montanians on his trip. Among them were Henry Asmussen, Hi. Marks, James Kelly and August C. Beckmark, all of whom were at one time residents of Helena, but who are now engaged in uusiness on the coast. Mr. O'Connell was met and enter- tained by Sheriff Edward S. Cudihee, famous for his untiring pursuit of the bandit Harry 'I racy last summer. \He is one of the finest men I ever met,\ said the sheriff. \I was with him some time and was royally en- tertained by him. He is an ideal man for the office he holds.\ Judith Basin Bank Lewistown, Mont. Incorporated Under the Laws of Montana. Paid -Up Capital $75,000 Surplus and Profits $20,000 HERMAN iriTTEN, President.
