Challis Precinct Votes Quietly in Local Election

After a calm Batle Election in Challis, 168 votes were cast with 49 of 50 women voting. State tickets performed poorly countywide. Fusion would have carried, but independents and county focus kept the tally skewed. Complete Houston results show scattered totals across candidates and minor party votes.

Richest Silver Islet Mine Falls After Captain's Drink

The Silver Islet mine off Thunder Cape on Lake Superior, once the wealthiest silver site, was abandoned after a boat captain’s drunken spree left the engines unfueled and the pumps failing. Water filled shafts, hundreds of workers lost jobs, and a thriving mining village decayed as the mine lay flooded for 13 years.
