PUBLIC sp1RKr AT A DISCOUNT.


The prospect of supplying the Montana
trade from the Pacific side, has called into
play the dormant energies of class of peo-
pie in the upper country whose lights have
long been hid under bushel. Every known
trail, across the Bitter Root Mountains, or
around them, has found its special advocates.
Most Of those who are moving in the matter
have never even crossed by any of the trails
or.raads about WHICH they discourse SO dog
matically, but depend for information on old
mountaineers and reliable Indians. Although
they all disagree among themselves, as to
which is the best route, and where the proper
point of departure is located, they all agree
that certain sum is needed to carry ont
their ideas. BY a singular coincidence, they
all agree upon the sum of $4,000 as the pre-
else amoupt necessary. to construct a good
wagon road; practicable for ful-loaded
wagons every day in the year. By the expen-
diture of this inconsiderable sum the public
is led to believe that the rich trade of Mou-
tapa. will be brought right to our doors.
There is one condition necessary to the sue
cess of any of these proposed routes, and
that is the protector is to have the power to
eSpend the money in his own way. If the
matter is given into the hands of confounded
fools, it is certain to be failure" says one
-"It you will place $4,000 in my hands, gen.
tlemen, will clear out the Mullan Road"
says another, and still. another thinks that
$4,000. would, make the Pen d'Oreille route
the best road to Blackfoot. Some persons
give up, discouraged with the apathy of
people who will not give $60G0 to be fnan
cially saved others curse the country and
the lack of public spirit--proposing to leave
the country. "as soon as can get my bust.
ness settled"
. The point to- all this seems to be, first, thai
there is some doubt whether the Montana
mines are to be supplied from the Pacific side
or not; and, second, by what route the trade
is likely to go, if it can be secured at all.
There<is certainly some one route which
is demonstrably the best ftom the Columbia
River, but it is far from settled which tba,
route is. One thing only is sure, and that is
that no wagon road can ever be constructed
across the. Bitter Root Mountains south OF
Stevens BASS, on the Mullan Road. The
mountains absolutely forbid it. The main
question is whether to cross this range or 60
around it. There is q great deal toNbe said
on both sides, and time only can determine
which method is the best.

PERsoNAL.-Mr. Newell, for five years edi-

yesterday morning to take possession of the

The UPPER COLUMBIA MiNEs.-Some SIR
has been created in the community, says the,
Vain Walla Statesman, by reports of very
rich gold discoveries on the Upper Columbia.
The most authentic news we have faom that.
Section is contained in the following extract
from letter from Mr.. Park Wnans The
letter bears date, " Colvlle, W. t., Oct. l6::
4" The news from the Upper Columbia is
encouraging. One claim on Carnes Creek
is paying from $l5 to $40 to the hand per
day. Nearly arthe miners have left there
and gone to French Creek, where the miners
are doing well. Henry LaFleur writes us
that his claim is paying well, he having
taken out l03 ounces the FIVE days before
wrfing-over twenty ounces per day. But
few claims were opened, but all prospect
well. About one hundred claims were
staked off and taken up. The miners com
plain of rain, saying it, has rained most of
the time alt Summers. In September it
rained almost necessarily, day and night
and weather warm. But few will winter in
the mines. Most of the claims are laid over
until next June"

ROCKY BAR, SoUTH BOISE. = The quartz
mining interest at South Boise is receiving
new impetus from the operations of capi-
talists from the Atlantic side. Col O'Neals
eight-stamp mill is completed, and has made
one or two runs on rock from the ada El
more;" which, while not as rich rs it was
generally expected to be, was very satisfac-
tory. The Idaho mill ten stamps, has been
running all Summer, and, as report goes, is
doing remarkably well; but no one outside
of the company is in the possession, as far
as known, of any definite information as to
what has really been taken out. This lode
and, mill have been bonded to Major Spear
representing o. Pittsburg company, at $l4O,-
0oO-ffty days time being given to make
payment-a good sale and good property.
Major Spear bought Cartee, Gates. & Go. IS
mill, and has q mill in process of construc
tion on Elk Creek for the same company.
Major Spear is gentleman who has won
much upon the people of South Boise, as
well by his social traits as by his eminent
fitness for the responsible position which he
occupies. HIS success will add much to the
future prospects of the district. Col. Ray
mond's ten-stamp mill is to be put up at
