Upon the return of some of their

had taken in going there, a wild ex-
cltement broke out among the mining
and in fact. entire white population OF
that little mining camp, and the news
spread like wildfre in western prairie

in the fall of 1861, it travelled rapidly
by the power of steam, down the CO.

quickly spread from Portland, Oregon.

Our Garden Valley correspondent
says, or rather does not say, but evi-
IDENTIFY means to be understood as say
Ing that the post Office in Garden
Valley is not run as it should be-that
letters are opened and papers given to
Tom, Dick and Harry. This is the
first time we ever heard any complaint
about this P. O., and think our CORES
pondent is going little too far in say
ing that letters have been received, in.
white envelopes, with the paper OF a
yellow envelope clinging to the stamp,
as an evidence of the fra lily of human
nature, by which he means, as we con-
strue it, that the postmaster has open
en- letters that did not belong to him.
1t is very common thing for person
to stamp an envelope, make ONE err
ror in the address,. take a new envelope
and remove the stamp from the one on
which the address was incorrect, and
stick it On the one to be used. We
are pretty well acquainted with Mr.
Mills, the postmaster, and believe him
to be gentleman who would not be
guilty of opening letters not his own,
nor of conducting the postoffice
business loosely. We do not
doubt that our correspondent believes
his charges to be well founded, but we
are strongly Of the opinion that he is
laboring und er great mistake in &C
cusing the G. V. P. NJ. of opening other
peoples letters or of giving papers
to Tom, Dick, aud Harry" or "that
every codger that comes along can
walk in and help himself" 1t is moth
ing unusual for a P. NJ. to give out
mail to persons other than those to
whom it is addressed, when be has no
doubt that such mail matter will be
delivered to the persons to whom ad-
dressed.

TO 1905. was located, laid out and
built upon at the confluence Of the
Snake and Clear Water rivers, then
almost III the heart of the Nez Perez,
pronounced Nay Percy, or Pierced
Nose, Indian country.
Lewiston was then believed to be at
the head of practical if not possible,
steamboat navigation on the Snake or
Columbia rivers. and was mainly
fonnled and settled by Oregonians.
This little inland and comparatively
isolated village has ever since the
date it was first founded, been the
principal trade center, whole

country watered and drained by the
Claar-W Water and Little Columbia riv-
ers and their numerous and long and
rapid mountain tributary streams and

An important treaty was negotiated
between the Nez Perez Indian tribe

about fifty subordinate Nez Perez In

it was computed by competent judges
that from $500 to 1900 Nez Perez In
dams were present at ana during that
council. The result. after protracted

coveries Of gold in what is now Idaho
Territory. and which led to the subse-

should have prefaced the writer's en-
tire series of imperfect outline pen
pictures of those early days in the
first settlement of these, then remote,

est and intelligent pioneer white man.
Gold has been claimed by some an-
thorities, after very considerable re-
search upon the subject, to have been
first discovered by French Canadian,
whose name is unknown at present.
and to have been first discovered by
him sometime during the year 1852.
on the banks of the Pen dOreille,
pronounced Pom du ray, river in

After some eight years had elapsed
from the first discovery of gold in pay
ing quantities in that region, party
of eleven men, whose names are at
present unknown, discovered still
richer and more extensive auriferous
placer deposits in the vicinity of a
place named by them and those who
speedily followed them thithsrward,

Carson Appeal.
Yesterday morning about 10 o'clock
one of the men who was working along
side Lake Bigler wood iume at the lum.
Der yard in Carson, called out to the men
below that all the fish in Lake Bigler
we're coming down the flume. A few
seconds later a school of fish struck the
apparatus, which is placed in the hume to
turn sticks of timber over the edge of the
Hume, and being suddenly detected fell
all over the workmen. The water
was fairly bristling with trout and
suckers, and they came in irregular num-
bers, about six inches long, and all alive.
Nearly a ton of the fish fell under the
hume, and the workmen took them away
in baskets. A ton of fish in half an hour
is about the best score on record for Ne
vada. 1t is believed that they were
crowded into the supply pond of the
hume by the storm, and her driven INTO
the hume in punches of say two or three
dozen in "a bunch, They would strike
the deiiector and fly in all directions.
This thing was kept up for nearly half an
hour, when they got beautifully less, and
then ceased coming altogether. They
were mostly brook trout.
