The many friends of Mr.. James
M. Gudger, ST., who had feared the
terrible accident which he suffered
last summer would seriously imp:lr
his ability to prosecute his profess
ion thereafter, were more than graft
fed to note the old-time vigor and
ability with which he succeeded In
the trial of Hensley. While. the
case has been an exceedingly labo-
rious one, Mr.. Gudger has sustained
no inconvenience whatever, and his
argument, of moro than two hours
length, proved him fully himself
again. All are greatly gratified
thereat.

The Argonaut and Dixon.

Henry A. Swift has taken a lease on
the Argonaut and Dixon mines on Lake
Creek and has commenced active opera
tions taking out ore and further develop
ing the properties. He sent up seven
men and supplies few days since and
expects to send up seven or eight more
in short time, or as soon as they can
be put work at advantage. He will
bring down SIMPLE lot Of ore to Ketchum
tomorrow as a trial lot, and ascertain
just how it runs. A galena vein from
three to eighteen inches in width is now
in sight in the Argonaut, and good ore
vein is showing up in the Dixon. Mr..
Swift will push work on these proper
ties this season.

The Lake Creek Concentration.

The foundation for the new concen-
traitor at Lake Greek has been laid and
work of putting the machinery together
is being pushed as rapidly as possible.
VIM. Pinney, the superintendent,
expects to have the machinery all ready
to start up by the first of the month.
There will be q force OF from twelve to
fifteen men kept busy in and
about the concentrator when it COM
mences running at full capacity,
and that will be as soon, as
completed, as enough ore can be taken
from the mines in that neighborhood to
keep it running almost indefinitely. 1t
is expected over 100 men will be
employed up there upon the different
mining properties as soon as the ore can
be treated by the new machinery. Lake
Creek mines are all good, but the ore
being largely of a concentrating char
acter but little has heretofore been
accomplished in the ore output from
that section. However, the new con-
centrator will enable large shipments OF
Lake Creek ore this season.

lecture will be rare literary treat.
The Ophir mine has force of eleven
men ut work and are taking out ore
daily. The second shipment OF lot OF
ten tons has just been made. From
this date on work will be pushed and an
average OF from fifteen to twenty tons of
fine ore will be shipped weekly from the
Ophir to Ketchum through the season.
Our suggestion of dividing the county
and making Ketchum the county seat OF
Custer county meets the approval OF
many. Some, however, suggest that
it might be better to take part of west
ern Alturas and southwestern Custer
and form new county with Ketchum
as the county seat. Alturas is too large
and will be divided next legislature.
