The Fisheries Question to be Re-
opened.

In anticipation Of an early reopening of the
North American fishery question, Mr. Evarts
will request that an American naval vessel be
sent to cruise on the inshore fishing grounds
Of the Dominion. Information OF q recent
date has already been obtained to clearly
demonstrate the extravaganza OF the
award OF the Halifax tribunal. The OBJ
ject of the presence of an American vessel
is to secure the latest authoritative infOTma-
tion respecting these fisheries as basis OF the
future Negotiations with Great Britain. The
position taken by MIR. EvartS In his correspond
ence on the award, and In connection with the
payment OF the s., SOC, ,0O0, was fully endorsed by
the Senate In December last, and resolution

conclusion was arrived at. Each CON
tended for his partner. The discus,

new girls.
Many Of our old members who coul,l
not come mp to the requirements Of
the new constitution have gone to the

AT our next meeting a measure will

The View EI Dorado.

Hon. James H. Hawley, who re.
turned from Shaw's Mountain, on the
Boise City road, last Sunday evening,
informs US that about forty men are
prospecting ia that district.
Messrs. Hawley & Go. have made
two more locations. Messrs. Andy
Thrash s. Sam johnson have located
two mines, one called the Paymaster
and the other the Enigrant. The
prospects are both good. The south
ern location is too far south and the
northern one too far north to he an
extension Of the bonanza. The loca-
tons have already proven that the
belt consists Of at least three distinct
lodges. From the distribution Of hoat
rock found on the mountains there is
ground for the opinion that the belt
consists Of numerous rich mines
Messrs. Hosklns, Lyle, Brunm X
Cole have made two locations on
lodges running parallel, southwest Of
Thrash & Johnson's locations. The
rock taken from them shows plenty oi
free gold.
One Of the locations made by Haw
ley \ Co last Saturday shows VI
well.
Many other locations have beer
made on the south side Of Shaw's
mountain, but nothing is known Q.
them, 10 work having been done tol
development. Messrs. Hoskins u Go
are building an arastra at the moutl
of Robbie gulch. They will have j
running in about a week.
In case the mines prove good, al
we have no doubt they will, waeoi
road will be built a short time hence
| A road to connect with the Boise roat
would have to be about two miles II
length.

THE QUARTZ LAW.

Ia our last issue appeared 4 letter
expressing the opinions of miner on
the quartz Law that is now III force Iii
this Territory. The Territorial law
allowed so feet Oh each side Of the vein
Hiof working purposes, and 1900 feet
Iin length, the least that the Congress,
SIGNAL law If 1872 allowed. The last
Legislature repealed the Territorial
law, which allows prospectDrs 70 ~
cate all the Congressional law allows,
which is ! 500 feet in length and 800
oE each side of the vein, and when q
location is made ii holds all undis
covered veins that are within the
boundaries. When the fact that
lodges run Id belts aud near to each
otEer is considered, it will readily be
perceived that tho law will discour-
age prospecting, as discover can, by
making locations On worthless veins
and spurs. claim whole mountain in
which he believes there is a good belt.
The old law allowing a discpyerer
fifty feet on each side Of the vein, two
hundred feet for discovery ii length
and two hundred by location was d
1good one, and the more It has been
I amended the worse it has been made
| By its provisions no impediments
were thrown in the way Of prospect
ling, as locations could be nrade within
the limints Of any claim when Tho
hedges were proven TO be separate

4 The Congressional law was beyond
doubt framed for the benefit Of CAPT
talists, and we hope the members O
\ Congress from the Pacific coast vii
move to have it repealed. The ad
vantages Of poor prospectors will al
ways prove to be the advantages D
the country.

They came well prepared for a sum
mer's prospecting campaign, and took
their departure last Sunday for the
Payette river, where they will pros
pect till the trail is open to Yankee
Fork, which will be about the 10th Of
May. Messrs. Annis aud Hays made
us q pleasant call last Friday. From
them we learn there will soon be a
rush for Idaho from all parts Of Cali
fornia and Nevada. Those who antic-
ipate coming are old prospecters, and
know the folly of men going to new
camps without money Tie gentle

A CLOSE, HARD MAN.

A hard, CLOSE man was Solomon Ray,
Nothing of value he gave away;
He boarded and saved;
He piuohed aud shaved;
Aud the more he had the more he orayed,
The hard earned dollar he tried to gain
Brought him little but care and pain;
For little he spent,
Aud all no lent
He made it bring him twenty per cent.
Such was tho life of Solomon Ray:
The years went by and his hair grew gray,
His checks grew thin,
And his soul within
Grew hard as the dollar he worked to win,
But he died one day, as all men must,
For life is feeting and man but dust.
The hcirs were gay
That laid him away,
And that was tho last of Solomon Raw,
They quarre!led now, who had little cared
For Solomon Ray, while his life was spared
His lands were sold,
And his hard earned gold
All went to the lawyers--I am told.
Yet men will cheat and pinch and save,
NOR carry their treasures beyond the grave;
All their gold some day
Will melt away,
Like the selff>h savings Of Solomon Ray.
