s.fnr some one 6f these educated cuSSe
Of our neighborhood to post you on q
fairs about our camp. but it seems q
though they continue to hang off, SO
have concluded to undertake the task
Well our mines must necessarily COM
in first. Every one of US have a
much as we can at present attend to
Water has decreased rapidly within ;
week. So much SO that several com
-panies are running but one pipe. TIKI
Glowing named companies are run
ming day and night, with one or two
exceptions: Keezer & Co., Shows
Bar, Jones & Co. Cowgirl creek, H w
Oxford, Goldtrap's Gulch, Hon. NJ. J
Biddy, Emigrant Gulch. A. A. Spain
Siskiyou Gulch, Gilleland & Go. Gran
ite creek, r. N. Spencer, Granite creek
bar. Tew & Co. will begin operations
in q few days. We anticipate fair
run of water, and expect to realize
large dividends. The little dry ditch
.ses as they are sometimes called will not
acause a great many dollars to be thrown
into circulation this year. The Irvines
Greek Ditch COMPANY will not run wa
ter here before the middle Of this
month. Mr.. Goldtrap's ditch is in
good running order, carrying about
800 inches of water. Snow has near
jly all disappeared from the fiat, and
south hill sides. though still plentiful
in the hills. Granite and Grimes
creeks at the junction, appear like a
Mississippi on small scale, water be-
ing higher than ever before known at
this season of the year. The only
damage done, as yet known, is to the
bridges of the creeks. They grow
shorter every day. Our foot-bridge
mas also grown beautifully less; so
much so that we are compelled to
cross part way in gum boots. Stran-
gers that happen to pass this way
manage to keep their pants and boots
dry by placing them under their arms
and say the sensation experienced
while crossing is cool and invigorating.
The dam of the Idaho Hoosac Tunnel
has lett for Boise valley and is a total
loss. No insurance. Directories be-
ing the order Of the day, and some of
.our business men being anxious that
ours should appear { for this trip. |
