The Summit Il DeSOtO.H

GOLD RUN. Jan. 4th, 1882.
To the Editor of the River Press.
SIR see a piece of startling news about
three or four weeks ago in the Record about
them taking out ore on the Summit s. Desc
ia. think "Endymion' must have dreamt
it, as / do not think he would tell q deliber-
ate f%alsehood and still he does. or ought to,
know, that, virtually, there is no such lead
as the Summit g DeSota, as the lead social
ed was discovered on the ground claimed
and owned by the discoveries of the Queen
of the Hills, which can be proven by the
records Of this county, and | would advise
the owners Of the Summit g. Desoto not to
throw away any more of their time upon it,
as it is now claimed, located and recorded
by me and my partner, under the name of
the Elias s. Milwaukee lodes.
am positive of these facts, am not afraid
to attach my signature to this, and can prove
them now or at any time.
I remain your obedt servant,
FRANK GAUTHIER.

The Wright & Edwards.

A meeting of stockholders of the Wright
& Edwards mining company was held in
this city yesterday afternoon and some i'm.
portant action taken. 1t was ordered that
eight miners, besides other workmen, be put
at work on the mine at once, taking out ore /;
also that q contract be let for the completion
of the tunnel as speedily as possible. 1t was
decided by the stockholders that a sufficient
force would be put on the mine, and at once,
to insure the delivery of 1000 tons of ore
at the smelter by the first of May. This
action on the part of the Wright s. Edwards
company will prove profitable to the stock
holder and at the same time give impetus to
the Barker boom. 1t is just what was
wanted.

POstUmces at Barker.

We are GLAD to report that the P. 0. de-
partment has at length recognized Barker.
BY a recent order of the department, an Office
has been established at Gold Run and is
called ClendeDin, J. W. Matkin, Postmaster;
also one at Hughes City, Chas. Mix, P. M.
The offices of Beltane and Highwood, on the
road to Barker, are re-established and E.
Hackshaw appointed Postmaster for the for
mer and j. G. McCord for the latter. Now
tri-weekly service is all that is lacking to
make Barker entirely happy as far as mail
matters are concerned. The gentlemen
named as Postmasters should qualify at once
aid show their sslittle brief authority"

It does not need the eye or inspiration OF q
prophet to discern that the day is near at
hand when valetudinarians of the old world
and the new will seek to stay the stealthy ap
proaches OF disease and build up dilapidated
constitutions in the dry, cool, pure atmos-
phere of these mountains. The pine forests
that clothe our mountain sides and submits
yield their healing balm of the elixir of life.
The cool nights of our midsummer invite re-
freshing sleep to the tired, nervous system
that has lost its power of recuperating rest.

Halfway Station.

Frank Lewis has located a ranch on Cora
creek, nine miles this side of Otter creek, on
the Barker road. which, we understand, will
be made the halfway station on the road to
the mines, as also the first station On the
Martinsdale route. Mr.. Lewis has already
erected a comfortable house and stable and
in few days will be prepared to serve the
public. This arrangement will divide the
drive between Benton and Barker more even
ly and will be entirely satisfactory to travellers
over the line.
