The White Pine news. [volume] (Treasure City, Nev.) 1868-1906, 1870-07-23


River placer mines. Snake River, We
believe, is in Idaho, about 1870 miles due
north of Corinne, on the railroad. Dur
ing the last few days several letters have
been received from the new mines by
parties here, and the accounts are said
TO be very encouraging. The whole OF
Snake River, for 60 miles, il is asserted,
will pay for working. Men are repre-
scented as making from 50 TO $40 per
day with rockers. There are about 400
men on the river. OF course we can not
youch for the truth Of the accounts that
have reached us; but, at all events, sew
eral parties on the receipt Of letters from
friends at the new mines, have fastened
10 depart in that direction. The report
of rich gold placers anywhere this side
of the North Pole, is enough to set any
old California miner crazy.
The Doc ORDINANcE.-The dog tax is
now due and payable to the City Mar
shall. 1t is provided that a license of SO

sumo the license is TO be collected an
nually. All dogs impounded shall, at
the expiration OF "a hours, If not sooner
redeemed, be shot and decently inter-
red by the Marshal without the city

receive a fee of $1.50 per head. Owners
of valuable dogs would do well to peruse
Ordinance No. 43, published in another
column.
SEPARATING WORKS FOR EUREKA.-We
understand that j. J. Dunno, Agent of
the Nevada Land and Mining Com
pany, has made arrangements for the
Immediate erection Of extensive refining
and separating works at Eureka. He
has purchased an interest in the Nc
Nevin furnace, in connection with which,
it is proposed to erect separating works.
The establishment of such works must
necessarily rebound TO the best interest
of the new and flourishing camp of
Eureka.
EXAMINATION OF THE ALLEGED Rob-
DERs.-Tho two women of the town, re-
ferred to the other day, and Constable

hearing before Justice Atwood, on the
charge of grand larceny. After a portion
of the testimony had been addueed, the
further hearing Of the case was continued
until noon to-day. The evidence hui
far is sufficient TO Justify the belief that
all parties will be held to answer to the
next Grand Jury.

A LITTLE sSeuLAR.-As long as those
celebrated clothiers, COIN Brothers, on
tinue to give away such excellent cloth

the Coins are in the field.

pers.
