When the White Oaks excite
ment first began, nearly three
years ago, a quarrel arose between
Santa BE and Las Vegas as to the
distance from each place to the
camp. Las Vegas road was de-
cidcd the shorter All the maps
then showed that between Albu-
querque and White Oaks were
fewer miles than either Santa Fe
or Las Vegas could claim, but Al
buquerque was then a little village,
whose merchants had their hands
full with the trade they then com
manded, and enterprise consisted
mainly in charging high prices tor
goods. Things have changed since
then. The trade of White Oaks
is valuable now and its merchants
will buy here if they can be con
vinced that they can get bargains
here and can save money by
freighting from here instead Of
Las Vegas, where they buy the
most of their goods now. The
road between here and White
Oaks should be gone over and ex-
amincd. If it is a bad road it
should be put in good repair. If
water is scarce along it, wells
should be sunk. There would not
be too much cost about this when
the profit which can reasonably be
expected is looked wallpapers

Editor LEADER
Please do me the favor to insert
this communication in your issue
of the 10th inst, regarding my
views relative to Mr.. Bingham's
claim against the School Board.
The statement in the GoId,n
Ira is false, and its author intend
ed it should be so, to serve his
clients interest.
The following Act, will show
who has authority to employ teach
ers
Act Of 1872, Chap. 2S, Sec. 2.
THE board of supervisors and di-
rectors Of each county created by
virtue of this act, shall have the
sole and entire management, super
vision and control Of the public
schools within their respective
counties, and shall make such rules
and regulations for the government
system and organization Of said
schools as shall be most proper,
suitable and necessary for the local
requirements and circumstances Of
each county"
The above act, beyond all doubt,
gives to the School Board the
power to employ teachers, and not
to irresponsible and unauthorized
parties.
My predecessors did not have,
or make, any agreement with Mr..
Bingham /; neither did the Board
Of which | am Il member.
Section 5 Of an act of 1SS2 emit
tied, IAN act creating new school
districts" reads as follows
The school taxes collected, in
every such separate school district,
shall be paid Over by the collector,
TO the trustees of such district, to
be used for the purposes of educa-
ton and no other
The organization Of the Bonito
=
district not being a legal one, it
could not and did not receive one
cent. To get rid Of Mr.. Bingham
he is sent to the Board for pay
mcnt. If he can produce a written
agreement made between him and
tins, or the former Board, | will
vote for and urge its fulhllment.
Mr.. Bingham was made the victim
of ignorance-it is his misfortune,
but not my fault. Respectfully.

a DAY IN THE MINES.

a DAY IN THE MINES.
Last Sabbath, the editors day of
rest, we took, what our sainted
leader (PauD called, a stroll, and
climbed the golden ladder which
leads, via Baxter Mountain, to the
auriferous fields there laid out by
Natures handmade. The trip was
not one of pleasure, but a sacred
one of duty hence we chose the
Sabbath, especially as all our
places Of worship yer closed.
AS indicated, we clambered the
mountain, made acquaintance with
out Introduction, Of cactus and
other native plants, which appear
ed to recognize foreigners and suf-
fered with pleasure when convey
ing annoyance to such as had the
temerity Of shaking hands with
them. But we saw the mines
such as have given White Oaks its
reputation. We saw property
upon which a man might place his
terminus, provided only with a
hatchet (and this is as true, if not
more SO, than the George Wash
lngton Ratchet story and a bucket
Of water, and make more than
''days wages" Why, gold glisten-
ed at us at every step, but it was 50
incrusted in rock, or quartz, that
we couldn't glisten back, and left
as poor as we went.
But we have been there and
propose telling what we saw.
Passing up Baxter Gulch, on our
way to the mines, we were sur
prised at the amount of placer
work which has been done here.
Arriving at the South UOmestake.
we were shown through the various
tunnels by Mr.. j. S. Redman, to
whom we return thanks for his
kindness. The north tunnel is
over 500 feet long, and the work
men have lately struck another
chimney. IN this, the most bcauti-
full cryStalizations could be seen,
and although we could detect no
free gold, we are assured that the
ore runs hig! in this metal. The
south tunnel is nearly 200 feet long
and some good ore has been found
in it, but the best ore is to be found
in the Captain drift and shaft, over
the south tunnel. From there
Paul guided us to the North
uomestake, where we found some
500 or 1000 tons of ore on the
dump, which, we are informed,
will average at least $25 per ton.
We visited the original discovery
shaft, whore Jack Winters first
found free gold. 1t is a great pity
and a detriment to this camp, that
such a mine should lie idle. As
there was no one there and the
tunnel was locked, we were unable
to see much of the work, which we
regret very much. Leaving this
famous mine, we wendell our way
: to the Little llomestake, where we
found a 100 foot shaft from which
some good ore has been taken.
After which we went across to the
, new find on the Hannibal. The
/, shaft is only about 13 feet deep,
and nothing has been done on il
since u last report on the find.
We found plenty Of specimens OF
, free gold, and could plainly e the
vein, well defined, which seems to
) run directly toward the Little
Mack.
t Coming home, we passed by the
| Little Mack, but again found Q
locked tunnel, SO we could see but
