they were sliding on.

| HuSbdRdmdn: Some idea OF the gold
diggings OF Alaska may be drawn from
Frank Bates experience in the Yukon
country last summer. He and George
Barnes worked a river bar that had been
worked twice, and took out 500 in about
ten days, and George took out $50 or SAC
in another spot further up the river.
VIM. Macay came in this morning from
the Gold Belt. He SAYS the Camas No. /
mine is showing splendid ore and plenty
OF it that Captain Gum and Erv John
son will have money to throw at the birds
inside OF year, taken from their mines
and that Billy Atkinson will yet become
a bonanza king-to all OF which the

llOyt Sherman, Jr., general western
passenger agent Tor the Union Pacific
system, and j. II. Young, who holds 9
corresponding position with the Chicago
u Northwestern Railway, dropped in at
this office last evening. These gentle
men are on one OF their periodical tours
OF inspection through their territory
Both are exceedingly pleased with the
outlook on Wood River, which they con-
slider is better than that OF any other re-
rion roundabout.
Being asked if the Chicago 4 North
western road, which is built over half
way across Wyoming, was really headed
this way, Mr.. Young said he really knew
nothing about it; but Mr.. Sherman was
more communicative, and said that there
was no doubt but that the road was seek
ing an outlet to the Pacific Coast, and
that its course was through Idaho. But
just exactly what line it would seek to
reach the ocean no one could tell, as this
was still undecided Another year would
tell, however.
Regarding the prospects OF narrow
gauge railway to the Gold Belt and
Smoky, Mr., Sherman said we need not
worry. Such a road was bound to be
built, and by this time next year, ii not
sooner, it would be under way. Ii John
Gilman did not build it, some one else
would,-Wood Rirer Times.
