The Gunsight Mine.

We received an unexpected visit
last evening from an old friend,
Mr.. w. D. Wilson, who has been
on tour of inspection of the DIFF
ferent mining camps between this
place and Salt Lake city. Mr.. Will
son remained at Resting Springs for
some time and visited the princi-
pal mines. Among the number
was the Gunsight, which Is devel-
oped to the depth of 400 feet, show
ing a continuous vein Of ore, which
is said to average $73 per ton in
silver and is three feet in width. 1t
is the property of Los Angeles par
ties, who have smelter, store and
J first class blacksmith shop in
Tecopah under the able superin-
tendency of Mr.. ]. Osborne. Anil
of medium capacity is much need
ed and it is hoped that the
owners of so valuable property as
the Gunsight mine will see the me-
cessity and erect one at an early
date. There are many fine pros.
poets in the camp belonging to
Messrs. Plerson, Shaefer, Manly,
O'Dare and others, which are being
worked at slow pace. Messrs.
Crowder and Caples also own some
fine prospects about fifteen miles
north and from which rich ore has
been taken. An enterprising son
of the EN- erald Isle erected a first
class adobe mill Copper fastened)
but whether from the rebellious
state of the clay or want Of energy,
it is lying idle. More energy and
capital is what is wanted in that
quarter, when the silver bricks and
base bullion will come pouring into
our beautiful valley.-Sdn Bernar-

In the San Francisco Chronicle OF
Monday. The correspondent who
sent it, either did not know what
he was taking about or willfully
perverted the truth, as he knows
that the Democrats who met the

its Chairman and that they were
not only representative Democrats
from every section of the county
but were composed of the most re.
spectacle citizens of Los Angeles
county, who unanimously favored
strict party nominations.
