REVIEW OF QUARTZ Discoveries

10 give idea of the amountof pros
pectlng that has been successful this
spring we give here list of the
the discoveries. Our readers should
bear III mind that the snow in the
quartz sections has not yet all disap-
peared, and that the usual time for
prospecting for qnartz has not arrived
The Fuquay was relocated in March.
A discovery was made abont six
weeks ago by M. E. Knapp and some
others east of the Illinois mine, and
supposed to be on the same vein.
About the same time George Stuck,
Green Martin and Samuel Hallett dis
covered the extension of the Green
Martin" ledge, on Henry creek.
The discovery of what is supposed
to be the east extension of the Gam
brinus mine was made about two
weeks ago by P II. Clark, Thomas
Clark and Dennis Noonan. The same
gentlemen discovered u ledge one
mile aboxe Mr.. Plowman's mill, few
days after their first discovery.
A few days ago Ed. Maloy discov-
cred a ledge and brought some very
rich rock to town, but as it has not
been recorded we caunot give the ex-
act locality.
We have only mentioned those
mines that yield hattcring prospects
and have indications of permanency.
For the length of time prospecting
has been going on, and the disadvan-
tages prospectors are laboving under
during the spring weather, We think
they have done remarkably well
More interest than ever before is being
taken in this branch of mining, aud
we would not be surprised to witness
a quartz excitement as soon as the
season fairly opens.

That Denial.

After looking over the proof of our
synopsis OF that portion Of the speech
that referred to Kelly and others who
mould public opinion in Boise City,
Mr.. Kingsley said: IL made no war
on the Salesman alone" We did not
claim that he did, but it Is not CON
tradicted, either by Mr.. Kingsley or
those who heard the speech, that kel.
ley was as severely criticised as we
said. But the speaker was DESTROYS
of avoiding controversies, and wished
to be understood as not censuring the
Salesman alone. That others were
mentioned in our synopsis but briefly,
and that the criticism was but one
passage among many, Mr.. Kingsley
wished TO call especial attention. as it
could be overlooked by reading with
out close attention. We know full
well tie propensity of that paper for
disappearing facts, and do not
blame him for wanting to avoid dis
.cussion that could be productive of no
good. That the Salesman would treat
his card as a denial of the synopsis
the idea was never for moment ell
tertained If Kelly would give ac-
counts of several overhaulings he re-
ceived from the citizens of Boise coun-
ty, several of whom arc friends of his,
his readers could form a pretty good
idea of the amount of Indignation the
speech aroused against him. That
he was very guarded in his language
on the road question IN last Tuesdays
issue is convincing to every constant
reader of Kelly's paper that he con-
siders The opposition to his course
something more than street talk.

A PROMISING QUAaTz DISTRICT.

lne opinion is general among our
miners and prospectors that the noun.
talns between the Sub Rosa and snm.
INIT Flat contain large number OF
rich quartz lodges. This opinion is
based on the facts that both Elk and
More creeks, which head in them con.
tain gold; that at various times rich
rock has been found on different parts
OF the mountains that was very rich:
that the mines being worked on each
side OF the quartz belt, namely, in the
Gambrlnus district and on Summit
Fiat, have been proven good; and the
general lay of the mountain ranges.
Until late last fall there were no roads
INTO these mountains, and prospectors
summed them because rock that was
not considerably above the average
milling ore would not pay to work,
owing to the great expense of pack
ing 1t several miles on animals. Now
the summit has been almost attained
by the roads to the Northern Light,
Forest King and Golden Gate mines.
and to reach either with road from
Summit Flat would cost but a trife,
as wagons, with q little difficulty,
could pass over the country as it is
In consequence of the building of the
roads lately that could so easily con-
meet with any mine that would be dis
covered in that section, prospectors
are directing their attention to the
new field, as the cost of hauling would
be but little more than from the mines
now being worked. The gradual cut.
ting of the channels of More and Elk
creeks through this great quartz
belt is undoubtedly what has deposited
the gold and created the placer mines
around Idaho City, which were at one
time 50 famous, and if the lodges on
the east and west were SO rich, there
must be great wealth in the noun.
tains where they cross, and which
have never been subjected to washes
That many important discoveries will
be made in that section this year we
have not the least doubt.

A WORD TO BUSINESS MEN.


Ever since the discovery Of the
mines throughout Boise Basin some at
tention has beenpaid to quartz. and dur
ing the last three years that has been
the principal branch of mining, and yet
there has been no great depth at
tanned in any of the mines exceptdhe
Gold Hill, at Quartzburg. The com
pany that first worked that mine made
a failure and gave it up. If after
wards passed into the hands of prac
teal miners and have yielded hand
somely ever since. A 25-stamp mill
has been kept constantly running on
ore from it for the last seven or eight
years, and, of course, has been thor
onghly prospected and proven to be a
permanent assure. The mines on this
side OF the Basin have not been tap
ped more than $50 feet below the sur
face. so far as prospected and worked
they have been proven good. But
still it is almost impossible to induce
capitalists to have anything to do
with them because they have not been
sufficiently developed to warrant them
in paying the large sums generally
asked. We all believe the mines to
be permanent, and the sooner they are
developed from a greater depth the
sooner may we expect the investment
in them of foreign capital. AS it is
evident that the permanency of the
mines must be proven with. home cap
ital, it looks to us as though men en-
gagged in business could hasten the
Improvement of the country and bene-
fit themselves by organizing a stock
company TO take hold of and work
some mine that shows favorable pros
poets \ combination of fifteen men,
or even less. could buy mine, sink
on and develop it without much cost

would be some expense without imme-
date profit in sinking, an average
