has been more mining done here this summer
than you might imagine, and all without any fuss

pected this season, and with the exception of
two claims, has paid beyond all expectation:
aud now that the season is past for working in
the river every body is busy digging bitches,

bitches, let me give you the dimensions of one

miles above this place. The owners have their
dam completed, aud work putting
up saw mill tor their own When the
mill is completed, they intend to put in tlume
large enough to carry all the water at its lowest
stage. The ditch and hume will water five large
oars before reaching this place. The work will
cost about twenty thousand dollars but as soon
the ditch is started it Will commence TO be
an income to them, and when completed it will
.iord water for at least thousand men, who
can average five dollars per diem. The com
peny think that they can complete the ditch to
this place by the fourth of July next. There is
now tlume being buil at the junction, that will
carry fifteen sluice heads; it will be completed
IN the course OF ten days, and will give employ
ment TO forty men
We have at present three stores, one bowling
saloon, aud one boarding house the latter kept
by Mr.. and Mrs. Williams where the digger
can get something more than pork and beans !;
and there are two other houses in course Of
erection, that will be completed by the opening
ot spring. | do not know of any place in the

tor miners at the present time. Wages have
been one hundred dollars per month all summer
