Hon. GEORGE AINslIE and DR.. A.
ID. Bevans relocated, few days ago,
the old Keystone and Fourth of July
mines, at the foot Of the mountain a
mile or two south of town. Consld-
erable work was done on the Kew
stone in early times, and a 10-stamp
mill put up on it. The Keystone is
a silver mine, but the ore was put
through gold mill, and as a natural
consequence the mine was pronounced
failure, and without any fair test of
its merits. The ore has given good
assays, and the Keystone is no doubt
a good mine, but will require capi-
tai for development, as the country is
fiat, and there is no way to develop
or work it except by shaft. DR..
Bevans has the money to carry on
operations extensively. 1t is his
opinion that the ore will have to be
smelted. DR.. Bevans is Ceur
d'Alene miner, and was a member
of the Constitutional Convention. He
left Sunday for home. He has min
ing case in court there to attend to,
and as soon as court adiourns will
return to this place, and force of
men will be put to work to develop
the property. Bevans and Ainslie
have also made two other locations in
that section.

ASSESSOR and Tax Collector Gal

ASSESSOR and Tax Collector Cal
dorwood says there are many new
settlers in Long valley who are work
ing hard to build up homes, and they
and their families have no more than
the bare necessares of life, and are
without means. They have not the
money to pay their taxes, and in
cases of this kind, if the County Com
missioners can find any legal justifi-
cetion for the act, to exempt their
property from sale for delinquent
taxes would be humane act. To
sell their little homes and place them
in worse state of poverty, and with
out shelter, would bring but little
revenue to the county, whereas, if
they are not forced to give up what
little they have, they will ere long
be marching on the road to prosperi-
ty and will then contribute to the
county treasury amounts that will foot
up handsomely. 1t would be better
for the destitute settlers, and better
for the county in the end not to turn
them out of their homes, which will
have to be done in order to collect
taxes on their small properties. This
has been dry season and the farmers
have had a hard row to hoe, and il
there is destitution outside of Long
valley, all, in such circumstances,
should be treated alike. Mr.. Calder
wood said it was painful duty to
assess those who are struggling so
hard, and actually suffering, IN some
cases, for the necessaries of life. He
found families with no more than a
sack of -four in their houses, but all
working energetically to expel the
wolf from their doors, which they will
succeed in doing if the county will
not, with a relentless hand, sell the
little homes they are striving to build
up. The revenue to be derived
would be insignificant, and the re-
suits, to the poor settlers and their
families, would be heart rending.
There is a good, industrious, law
abiding class of settlers out there,
who will, ere long, if leniency is ex-
tended them, increase the taxable
property of the county immensely.
and repay, an hundred fold, the small
amount the assessment calls for this
year.

LAST Saturday night the forest fire
that started in the Minnehaha coun-
try reached the summit in couple of
places between this town and Thorn
creek, and looked as if determined to
come down the mountain in this di-
rection. 10 Hill, who has three hun
dred cords of wood near the foot of
the mountain, went ont about nine
o'clock with six or seven men and
boys, to endeavor to stop its onward
career. They had but little fighting
to do, as the wind had turned, and
there was but little difficulty in stop
ping the march of the flames. The
country on both sides of Thorn creek,
and up to near its head, is on fire.

JOHN RlrCHIE the other day related
the particulars of hard tussle Mr..
See, who lives four miles and half
below Boise City, had with couple
of thieves week ago last Thursday
Mr.. S. was at work back of his house,
when he saw the thieves enter the
front door, but supposed they went
IN for drink Of water. Seeing that
they remained, he went in at the
back door just in time to catch one
of them in the act of lifting his watch
that he had hung up on nail. Mr..
See called the thief's attention to the
fact that he was seen taking the
watch, and was sternly requested to
give it up, whereupon the stealer of
time endeavored to convince the pro-
prietor of the house that he was vile
prevaricator. See downed him and
got his time piece. At this the other
thief emerged from a room he had
been searching for valuables, and
then 1t was two against one fight.
See succeeded in knocking the other
thief down also, but the pair were too
many for him. One of them struck
See on the arm and head with a pis-
tol, and kicked him on the ribs, using
him up pretty severely. The two
thieves then fed, mounted their
horses and galloped off.

LAST year Congress appropriated
100000 for the survey of sites for
storage reservoirs in the arid regions
of the country. THIS year $4,000
was devoted to the purpose, Maj
Powell, who has charge of the sur
veys, thinks that millions will he re-
quired before the work is completed.
The plan includes setting off the res
ervoir sites by free grants to the
States IN which they are situated.
There can be no question that the
benefit accruing from the settlement
of lands made fertile by irrigation
will amply vindicate the outlay.

The Chinese Joss of this place has
had a consultation with the Great
High joss of the Universe, who in
forms him that this town will be des-
troyed by fire this season, and the
Chinese say that the prophetic utter
ances of their Joss, who gets his in
formation direct from headquarters,
are always literally fulfilled, and a
good many of the whites here, know
ing the ways of the Heathen Chi
nee," fear that the prophecy will be
verified; that some of the " faithful y
when they begin to realize that the
prophecy is hanging fire too long,
will give human aid to its fulfillment,
as whatever their Joss says will hap
pen, must happen. If the Joss
should prove to be liar or false
prophet it would be a calamity worse
than fire, and more to be deplored.
The citizens here propose to warn the
leading celestials that If the Joss
proves to be true prophet, that his
people will be strung up by the necks
and remain in dangling position un-
til dead, and that this prophecy is one
also that will not fail to be fulfilled.

J. G. Fox informs us that VIM. Ed
wards, ex-Sheriff of Custer county,
who mysteriously disappeared about
three years ago, has been heard from.
He is on Douglas Island, Alaska.
Mr.. Edwards went over to Eastern
Oregon to buy band of sheep. He
left Pendleton with money to pay for
the sheep, but he never reached the
range, and his wife and friends could
get no trace of him until recently.
The supposition was that he was fol-
lowed and murdered for his money.
He did not leave any debts behind
him, SO the theory that he was muir
dered was reasonable one. Mrs.
Edwards is still in Challis, but will
soon leave for Douglas Island to JON
her husband.

BERT JoNEs and John Rlordan, Jr,
went out grouse hunting last Friday
on TIE divide south of town, between
More creek and Thorn creek. In the
morning the fire that started near
the Minnehaha was a short distance
this side of Thorn creek, and in the
afternoon had crawled up to and over
the summit in places before they
left there. 1t was burning furious
ly, roaring like a strong wind, and
trees were heard crashing down every
few minutes. Places that have been
covered with thick growth of frs
and brush are left as bare as a board.
Thursday night, when the fire was
near Thorn creek, bright light
shot up above the mountain, and oc-
casionally big, dense clouds of black
smoke. Friday night the light shown
brighter than the night before, and
Saturday night the glare of the flames
was seen on the summit.
