UNION CAPE CLAIM, Jun,

UNioN CAFE CLAIM. June %.
EpIroR RECORD In these days Of Frazer
River mania, it may be refreshing TO you to
know that business and enterprise arc not
altogether stagnant in this vicinity
The Union Cape Claim, the largest boldest
and most magnificent mining enterprise ever
undertaken in California, is in n more al
vnnced state than ever n claim on this river
was known to be before at so early period
Four.fths OF tho timber is already laid.
nearly one half tho posts set, ten of the
| eighteen wheels on their bearings, and the
head dam in n very felicitous condition
When il Is remembered that not stick OF
| timber was hid on the Cape Claim last year
until the 9th of July, and that the first or
middle Of July has been the usual time he O.
tofore for commencing to lay fumes. the pro-
grcss that has been made here has been
really astonishing The head dam Of this
claim, the most difficult part of which is al
ready overcome, will bc the most stupcndous
affair ever attempted on the river. From
! 900 to 10, 900 tons of rock will be used in It's
construc ion and the water will be elevated
nearly fifty feet above the bed Of the river
Under Mr.. Hart the successful progress Of
the work may be credited in n great meas
ure to the energy and experience of the fol
lowing gentlemen Capt N l.. Packard,
General Superintent j. V. Parks, Foreman
of the Head Dam; A. II, Connolly who has
charge of the Machinery, and Messrs Loom
Is, Jackson and Stanley. Forcmen on tht
grade and flume. l. Bartlett Jr. is the store
r book, and time keeper. and Mr. Wilcox keep
, the boarding house, the best managed and
the most satisfactory ever saw On a river

There are now over one hundred men en-
ployed here and frequently hear the grea
political questions Of the day very profound

several Buchanan men here. but | believ,
q the anti LeoomptOn element decidedly pre-
dominates.
