Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Bunker Hill Mining Company was a mining company with facilities in Wardner, Idaho and surrounding areas. When the mining boom began in the Coeur d'Alene, Idaho mining district, the area was lightly inhabited. The Bunker Hill and the Sullivan companies built a boarding house for miners in 1887. The office of the mining inspector during the period 1893 to 1909 was occupied by men who were closely identified with the industry. A cave-in at the Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mine took the lives of three men, shortly after the first state mining inspector took office in 1893. A coroner's jury investigated the incident and issued a report which stated, in part, We earnestly and emphatically call upon Mine Inspector Haskins to visit these mines immediately and demonstrate that he is willing to enforce the law if there should be any infraction thereof, and that he wears not the collar of any individual or corporation. The Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mine manager commented upon annual inspections of the enormous mining complex, declaring that the visits were rather a perfunctory affair which accomplished little.
