There is not as much work being

There is not as much work being
done in our mines this winter as was
anticipated last summer, but however.
what work is being done is proving
satisfactory to the owners.
The Forest Queen is working only
small force.
The Venango is being worked from
the lower tunnel, and it is expected
will cut the vein very soon. The
Venango is also being worked from
the lower levels on the upper work
ings under a lease, and the lesses are
taking out some rich ore.
The Belmont Co. are working a
a good force of men, and expect to
cut the Blind King vein in the tunnel
most any day now.
The Lead Chief rs having develop
ing work done under contract, and
the work is being vigorously pushed.
Charley Defferbaugh is pushing
work on the Ruby Chief and is taking
out some rich ore from the drifts at
the bottom of the shaft.
The Bullion King is being worked
under contract and the development
proves very satisfactory to superin-
tendent Ropell.
Mr.. Sturgeon is pushing work on
the Sandwich lode, and if any body
deserves success surely he does for his
unrelenting perseverance.
Dr.. Cornell is doing considerable
work on some of hisproperties princi-
pally of which is the Little Frank
lode, which is looking tip top.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19

DR.. Latham has been writing a
series of articles for the News-D Demo-
e,at, principally about the different
railroad systems Of the state. In his
letter of last Saturdays issue Of the
ND. in speaking of the D. & r. G..
R. R. he says: Since Palmer, Hunt
and Dodge conceived the construction
Of this railway Colorado has thrown
off her territorial tutilage, and assum-
ed place among the sovereign states.
Her 40, 900 population has become a
quarter Of million. Her $4,000,
900 valuation of property has grown
to hundred millions. Her mineral
product has increased from $4,000,
900 to $4,000, 900 annually. I'm
proved herds and hocks cover the
plains in place of Indians, antelope
and wild Texas droves. Agriculture
occupies the valleys Of the mountains,
and manufactures have sprung up over
the state. Vast deposits of bitumin-
Gus and anthracite coal have been
discovered and worked. An area
west of the great range, greater than
many of the older states, has been
wrested from the savage Utes and given
to civilized settlement, and still the
greatest development of the country,
consequent upon this railway construc-
ton is still to be realized. 1t is not
claimed that the Denver & Rio Grande
has accomplished all this, but it has
been powerful factor in this great
work; other railways and other build
ers have done their share. 1t is not
claimed that Palmer, Hunt and Dodge
have alone revolutionized railway
building and conquered the great
mountains, but they conceived the
idea Of this system, and they had the
to assail all difficulties, and
they have conquered them. They
have had able and earnest ieutenants
to whom great honor IS due.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19

Since the shooting on New Years
day in the Temotchi mining district,
brought about by two different parties
trying to relocate a claim that was
open for relocation, in consequenc OF
the assessment for last year not being
worked, the papers throughout the
state have been ventilating the subject
of relocating claims at the end Of the
year and discussing some plan to
avoid it. The Ne7os-Dsn0crat sgg-
gests the following sensible plan, SO
that it will practically do away with
the blood curdling deeds that the
papers have to record every year:
Every claim to which a lawful title
has been made, and which, by reason
of the failure of the owner to comply
with the law, is open to relocation,
shall become the property Of the coun-
ty in which it is located; and it shall
not be lawful for any y'indlvidual to re-
stake such claim; but the County
Sheriff or some other person specially
appointed by the Governor, shall
claim the property for the county and
within due time, say within sixty days,
sell it by public outcry to the highest
and best bidder for cash.
This is the idea in 4 crude form.
Properly framed it would effectually
stop claim jumping and put an end to
new-year night tragedies we may
expect to read of as long as the law
remains as it is. 1t would also be a
source of revenue to the country.
There are all over this state profess
sional m-jumpers-men who never
prospected and were never known to
plant an original stake, but are always
found on the alert to take advantage
of some other and more industrious
mans labor.

The gross area of Colorado is given
BIZ the latest census returns as 1o3,925
square miles, Of which $50 square
miles are water. Arizona is slightly
larger, being 10000 square miles IN
extent. Kansas has 82,oSo square
miles, and Nevada E1o,7oo; while
New Mexico is 1zz,5so square miles
extent. The computation of the area
of Colorado isvery simple, as the state
is limited on all sides by parallels of
latitude and meridians Of longitude.
The largest counties in Colorado are
Weld, with 10, 900 square miles; Bent,
o,a4o; Summit and Gunnison, each
5000 Las Animas, 1000 and Routt
6,oco square miles. The smallest
counties are Gilpin, 1So square miles
Lake, $50, and Clear Creek, 4oo
square miles.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19
The rush to the Gunnison countr

The rush to the Gunnison country
this spring will be greater than it has
ever been before. People who have
been backward about investing are
beginning to see their mistake, as the
investments already made, as a rule
have proved lucrative to the investor.
We advise those who have claims to
work them, for you cannot expect to
have mine by scratching a little on
the surface, and thesooner you develop
your prospect into mine the sooner
you will find a market for it. The
time has gone by when you can sell
a prospect hole for fabulous figures
unless it shows something remarkably
on top. From present indications in
this camp we think, however, there
will be much more work done this
summer than heretofore.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19

Two suits for $4,000 have been
brought against B. F. Montgomery,
Of Silver Cliff, by Mr.. Davis and Col.
Thing, who claim an interest in the
Bull Domingo mine, which Montgom-
cry sold to Eastern parties, but which
they say he did not settle with tbem
for. Montgomery is in New York
city in attendance upon his wife, who
is dangerously i'll and there for surgi-
cal treatmeat.-Grxat West.

We understand DR.. Wanzer and
Joe Collar have bought the saw-mill
owned by E. A. Buck, on the divide
between here and Ruby and will take
the same to Grand Junction, for which
place they expect to start early next
week. They report the snow about
five feet deep on the summit, but they
are plucky and will doubtless get the
mill down here in a week and Rave
the first saw-mill at the great town to
be built at the mouth Of the Gunai-
son.-Rtmew
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19
There is at least three times as much

There is at least three times as much
work beng done in the mines this
year as there was last. Although
great many that ought to be worked
are not, bu, still, those that are beng
worked are looking remarkably and
some of their neigIlbors, who have
been nestled in their snug homes cast
this winter, will be surprised at the
improvement on some of the proper
ties. While few Of the mines have
contributed ore to the sampllng works
this winter, others have been making
preparations to make large shipments
in the spring. All in all everything
looks prosperous for this camp, this
spring.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1882-01-19

We have received from Senator
Hill, copy Of the following bill:
Be it enacted by the Senate and
House Of Representatives Of the
United States of America in Con-
gress Assembled:

Colorado, lately occupied by the Un-
compahgre and White River Utes, be,

subject to disposal from and after the
passage of act, in accordance with
the provisions and under the restric-
tions and limitations of section three

chapter two hundred and twenty-three,
except as hereinafter provided, under

Interior shall, at the earliest practica-
bic day, ascertain and establish the

pose there is hereby appropriated, out
of any money in the Treasury of the
United States not otherwise appropri-
ated, the sum Of dollars.
SEC. 3. That all settlements, loca-
tlons and entries made by persons OF

The first through train over the
Denver & Rio Grande broad gauge
arrived in Denver on Tuesday morn
ing. The train was through freight
from Kansas City. An inspection
tlain went over the line several days
before, but that was the first regular
train. In few days passenger. trains
will run regularly.

During last Iuly 4 gentlemen hail

During last July gentleman hail
ing from Pennsylvania, at that time
living in Leadville, purchased burro
for the purpose OF sending the animal
back to his daughter in Monongahela
county, Pa. The animal was placed
in crate which was marked quite
plainly: 81 am Leadvillian going
to Miss Allegheny City, Mo
,nonghela county, Pa. Please give me
water and food" The express bill
was made out and the canary started
toward the Orient. Everything went
merry as marriage bell with the trav-
eler as long as he was among people
who knew him, or at least until he
crossed the Mississippl-there his
troubles commenced. The express
messenger in looking over his through
bills found one for "burro." Not
having confidence in the ability ofthe
Leadvllle Office clerk to spell some
words, he took it for "bureau," and
commenced to search for the missing
household article. Not finding it upon
his arrEal at the City Of the Lakes,
the following dispatch was sent back to
Leadville: "Minus one bureau, plus
one jackass what shall l do p The
answer was: "Change places with the
iackass.''

We are under the painful necessity
OF recording the death of another man
this week through accident in mine.
Miners cannot exercise too much
judgement in their work, as it is too
often the case that these accidents
happen by carelessness.

The jury in the True case at Buena
Vista found a verdict Of not guilty. 1t
will be remembered that Mr.. True
the banker of Poncha spridgs has
been held for the shooting Of Capt.
Carpenter, of Poncha Springs, some
time last spring.

A late decision in 2 placer patent
case arising in California settlers is
that where person has worked a pla-

limitation prevailing in the state, he
Is entitled to patent.

The mail which left Denver on
December Goth for New York, Boston
and Philadelphia, has been lost. This
Is a very serious matter as the mail
was supposed to contain some valuable

Jim Belford has made a statement to
the effect that he is not a candidate
for the United States Senate, but will
support Teller for reelection. He
says if he is to remain in Congress he
prefers the House to the Senate.

Wonder if there will be enough
left of Oscar Wilde after New York
gets through with him, to visit Ruby.
We think if he was to come here in
the winter he would give us a revision
of the Beautiful Snow"

There appears to be a great demand

There appears to be a great demand
for coal lands in this section. The
people throughout the country have
come to understand that we have the
real, pure anthracite coal here, in an
endless quantity and there are some
effort being made by coal operators to
secure it If possible. The coal interest
in this country will prove great source
of revenue when it becomes marketa-
bic. That combined with the precious
metals is bound to make Gunnison
country stand foremost in the rank of
prosperity among her sister counties
of the state. Not only have we gold,
silver, coal and iron, but in the val
leys west and south of US have proved
TO be rich for agriculture purposes,
and the day will soon come when fruit
and the small vegetables will be grown
there just the same as they are in the
great Salt Lake valley in Utah. Al
ready settlers have crowded in on the
forbidden until most of the best ranch
land is occupied. There is no reason
why this Gunnison country will not
be selt-sustaining just as soon as it is
properly settled and the people get to
work right. The climate, also, we
all know, is all that can be wished
for, being of a mild temperature.
