Enaigrant GuIch Mines.

Mr.. J. Coan, who has Tor the past six o.
seven years been engaged In mining opera
lions in Emigrant Gulch, came to Bozeman
this week, bringing with him quite sswad.,
OF dust. the result Of his labors this season.

ground has been but wages diggi,.es for
| the few men who have been engaged there.
bul this seasons developments have onene,,
claims that, If they hold out as well as they
prospect now, will make the fortunes Of the
owners. Although Emigrant has been
worked for number OF years, no one has
yet seen the bed rock; the gold coming from
there having been found on rims and bars
but the miners are now running for the main
channel. and from the appearance of the
gravel and the prospects obtained, it is be-
lieyed they..will soon strike bed rock in the
creek. Mr.. d. P. Maxey, who recently pur-
chased Mr.. Myers interest In a claim which
paid $l6 per day to the hand, is busily en-
gagged preparing his ground for spring oper-
atlons, and has crossed a high point OF bed
rock, and is now running cut for the MAR,
channel.
Tom O'Brien & Co. are also working on
their claim, ard expect to have it open for
active operations early in the spring.
JOB Harvey, Tom Harper, and several
others well known in Boaeman, are all busy
at work, and sanguine in their expectation
of remunerative diggings, and it would be
hard to find more hopeful set of men than
are now employed in Emigrant Gulch, and
certainly there are none more deserving of
success than those who, like Mr.. Coan and |
several others have overcome apparently in
surmountable obstacles, often..hopins against |
hope, but ever confident that rich reward |
was in store for their labors. We are glad of
their success, for their own sakes as well as
tor the financial effect it will have on BUSH
ness in Eastern Montana. We confidently
expect Emigrant Gulch to be one OF, If not
The best mining camp in the Territory next
season.
