PINE GROVE ITEMS.

Everybody is jubilant here and
confident that Pine Grove will come
out on top this summer.
Paul Rochester has resumed
work on his mine three miles west
of town. He has big ledge, rich
in both gold an silver.
A. b. Mcmillan, who has a lease
on the Hawkeye mine, is drifting
on the ledge from the bottom Of
the shaft and has fine body of
ore in sight.
The river is rising rapidly and
has overlooked its banks half a mile
above town. Quite a respectable
river is running down the road, but
no danage2has resulted yet.
Last Sunday Scott Myers brought
up a band Of d. b. Ethell's horses
from Bennett creek. The rest Of
his stock will follow soon. Feed is
splendid and stock doing well.
The face of the Franklin tunnel
is supposed to be only 80 feet from
the ledge and it is almost certain
that a large body of ore will be
tapped, as large quantities of de
composed ledge matter is now found
in the tunnel.
John Van Setback has uncovered
eight feet of solid ore in the Min,
View mine. This new discovery is
about 300 feet below where Hall
and Hesford have a force of men
working, and is on the same ledge
This proves there are thousands Of
tons of good ore in this mine ready
for the pick and shovel. If any
body thinks that Pine Grove amt
coming to the front as first-class
mining camp they are a little off.

A PLEA FOR BETTER ROADS.

The following argument in favor
Of good highways, as advanced by
the Oregonian, applies 10 no section
more forcibly than il does to this
county. Now that the country
roads are drying up and promises
soon to be in fair condition, there is
danger that the importance Of max
ing them permanently good may be
overlooked. The problem Of what
to do with them will inevitably pre-
sent itself next winter and each
succeeding winter, until some def
mite plan Of action shall be matured
and carried out. Good roads are
less expensive than bad roads. A
team will draw a greater number OF
pounds ON a good road II facili-
tates travel, and thereby exchanges
The farmer is enabled to get his
produce tn market at any time Of
the year. 1t brings the ranchel
and the merchant nearer 10 each
other, 10 their mutual advantage
1t enhances the value of property
along it, and produces a favorabl,
impression on strangers, encourages
immigration. Bad highways are 0
kind of luxury which only very
wealthy communities can really af
ford.

Last fall Robert Chattin entered
the Assessors Office and remarked
that he had $40 which some one in
Pine Grove had handed him to pay
taxes, but he could not remember
the party. He requested the Assessor
to turn to the list of taxpayers oil
that town to ascertain whose taxes
amounted to the exact sum of $40
G. w. Smiths name was the first
with that sum opposite, and Mr.
Chattin, supposing Smith had
handed him the money, paid the
taxes and sent Smith the receipts
Everything went lovely until tho
delinquent list was published. But
when Mr.. Bogard of Pine Grove
read the list he jumped stiff-legged,
and Immediately penned Chattin a
letter of inquiry Then il dawned
upon Chattin's memory that Bo-
gard was the party who gave him
the money. Mr.. Chattin paid Bo-
CARDS taxes and costs out of his
own pocket and forwarded him re-
ceipts. lie informed Smith of his
mistake and asked to be reimbursed,
but Smith refused, saying that he
had never authorized Chattin to
pay his taxes. Suit was brought
in Justice Wallis court to recover
the money and on Thursday judg-
ment was rendered in favor of Chat
tin. Thus, for doing supposed
kind act Mr.. Chattin has been put
to considerable trouble and ex-
pense, and hereafter he will prob
ably let every man pay his own
taxes.
Colonel j. M. Thexton is now at
Silverton, Colorado, experimenting
the building of a new quartz mill
for the North Star Company, on
Sultan mountain. Thexton's fame
as a mill builder is wide spread.
Besides his good work at Rocky
Bar in the erection Of the great FL
more mill, the Wide West and the
Ophir, he has supervised such works
on the Comstoek in Nevada, at
Silver Cliff and Idaho Springs.
Colo, also several in South Africa
and Venezuela. Probably his next
work will be in China.
At a meeting of the fire company
on the evening of the 29th arrange
ments were made for testing the ca
pacity of the hydrants of the Rocky
Bar water-works. Necessary action
was taken to perfect the organiza-
ton and the following new members
were added to the roll: August
Outflow, +. =. Cavanah, J. T. Gill
man and r. p. Chattin.
L. L. Williams, John McCabe,
for Sheriff, j. Arlington, and A. d.
Crocheron. for Assessor, have an
nounced themselves in the Avail
anche as candidates before the Re-
publican Convention of Owyhee
county. These gentlemen believe
the newspaper the best means to
make known their desires-and
very properly too.
