claimshaye been recently located in the Clear
Greek mining districtnear the Payette river.
Mr., Ohas. Stewart Of Centerville has spent
most Of the season on that river and during
the interval between working river claims,
has devoted much labor and time to pros
pectingt the surrounding country. The lodges
are mostly very large, showing gold in the
rock very distinctly to the naked eye. An
arastra will soon be at work testing the rock.
The Clear Creek district bids fair to become
