Work has been resumed on the Pilgrim

mine is situated in Beaver g1lch, near
the Pilgrim, and promises to be q source
of revenue for the owner.
The flies and mosquitoes have all dis
appeared, and several parties are enjoy
ing camp life at the lakes, with much
success at trout fishing.
Haying is finished in the Salmon val
ley.
The Columbia & Beaver mill is ready
to run, and will start up as soon as the
necessary chemicals arrive, which are
expected this week.
Owing to work being resumed in a
large number Of mines and prospects.
the business of the town of Sawtooth is
improving rapidly, and the denizens OF

The School Election

Resulted in the choice of James Judge
for three years, NJ. c. MeLennan for
two Years and John Lewis for one year.
IN the capacity of trustees for this dis
tr1ct We think a good choice has been
made IN the instance OF their selection.
and hope the people will join them inso-
far as support is required, from time to
time, IN the enactment of incidental du-
ties peculiar to the office of trustee.
Their next object will, of course. be the
erection of a new school house, the tax
being levied and everything arranged
to go ahead with the work, and ii has
been suggested that they avoid exceeding
an expense of 81 900, the amount in
sight for this work. A good, substantial
school house, 20x30. with twelye-inch
brick walls, edged within and without.
requiring no lining, but the witewash
brush would at once combine the very
essential qualities of economy, comfort.
comeliness and permanency.

Our chief left for Galena and tho
Sawtooth country on to-day's stage,
on a business trip, to be absent several
days. and left us to relate passing events
and keep up the dignity of the sanctum
and afiiict the public with effusions
from our massive brain. The first step
taken was to spend $3.50 with barber,
and patronize a dry goods store, so as
to be ready in case We were to receive
invitations to chicken dinner and
vine supper, in which line we are par
tieularly obliging. The latch string of
the sanctum is hanging out, and all are
invited, but we will say to the ladies to
not be overcome by our attractions as
regards beauty. We think it we'll to
mention this fact, as our chief was q
short time ago elected the handsomest
