T D1ToR SIGNAL: Dear Sir, What
u is the matter with the citizens of
Welser and vicinity? Do they ex-
pect our Legislators to accomplish
every thing in our interest while we
lay back and do nothing upon our
part? If they think so they are liza
BILE to be badly left. | will ask the
heavy taxpayers: Have you made
any suggestions to our representa-
tives in the legislature for any enact
ments or changes in our present laws
whereby there could be retrenchments
that would lessen our taxes? l have
heard suggestions eminating from
our county officials condemning the
laws in relation to our county gov
ernments, and it is very reasonable
to suppose that our county officers
have had ample opportunities to dis
cover any defects in the laws apper-
tanning to county governments, and
| have no doubt would be glad to
make such suggestions as would be
beneficial to the taxpayers, if the
matter could be properly brought be-
fore our representatives.
Another matter wherein it seems
TO me that our citizens should awake
from their lethargy and show some
spirit Of activity, is in reference to
the agricultural college. Five or six
other places are contending and are
showing up the different localities
and offering land and other subsidies.
And now l will suggest that the citi-
zens of Weiser fall in the wake, call
a mass meeting and everybody turn
out, put our shoulders to the wheel,
ask petition and memorialize, and !
certainly think by representing facts
and liberal appropriation upon oul
part we will certainly stand an equal
chance with the rest Now, witt
this timely suggestion trust the
citizens will see the necessity Of act
ing at once.
Most respectfully.
WEIsEBITE.

Ou1. ICmn,e Spreading.

n HE following is an extract from
letter of inquiry received at
this Office in regard to the Seven
Devils: care they working there
now? Can man get in there now
and how is it in regard to labor2 /
would like to go in, and there are
several others here who want to 60
there for work, etc, etc. " This is
only one of many, all containing
about the same as the above, received
by every newspaper in Idaho which
publishes articles in regard to the
Seven Devils-the wealth vault Of
Idaho. The fame of the camp has
spread to every village on the Pacific
coast and the greater portion Of the
east. and next season is certain to
see hundreds pouring in from all
points of the compass. However,
we would not advise those from a
distance to come before the latter
part of March and April, as at pres
ent winter has closed in and the
camp is not very easy of access in
that season, and work is not pushed
very rapidly while the icy bonds of
winter embrace the mountains in
their clasp-only a comparatively
small number of miners being en-
ployed in running tunnels, etc. But
as soon as spring fairly opens then
all is activity-stoping ore, hauling
ore for shipment, and all the various
employments incisent to mining is
in order. Next season will give en-
ployment to all; and as soon as win
ter has departed for the year, these
seekers after information can come
in without fear of lack of employ

known in this camp.
The Porphyrite S. & NJ company
have shut down their smelter for the
winter. The company are arranging
to add more machinery to their plant
among which will be an automatic
sampler and large rock breaker.
Mr. NJ Duffy is working a force of
men on the Black Hawk taking out
ore to ship to Denver.
Messrs. Goodloe & Matherson are
pushing development on the Edison
and JEFF Davis claims. These gen
tlemen have fine property in these
two claims, which bid fair to take
high place among the silver pro-
ducing mines Of Mineral at no dis
tant day.
Superintendent Noble, of the Lit
tie Chief mine, has again resumed
operations. This claim is the south
extension of the Silver Bell ledge and
is opened by an incline shaft and tun-
mel which shows chloride and sulphu-
ret ores of high grade. The COM
pany are now starting tunnel to tap
the ledge 160 feet below their lowest
workings and are crowding it ahead
as fast as three eight-hour shifts can
drive it.
L. NJ. Barton is developing the
Custer mine, which is supposed to
be the northern extension of the Sill
: yer Bell lode. Mr.. Barton is driving
a cross-cut tunnel to tap the ledge
: about $50 feet below the outcrop,
J The Custer is an old location and has
always been looked upon as a good
J claim.

showing Of ore and a well-defined

ture has passed bill giving the gov
ernor power to appoint persons to
fill existing vacancies, it is hereby
ordered that the clerk telegraph to
Boise city and ascertain the facts as
to the passage Of the bill, then took
a recess until 3 o'clock p. m.

ent
A. NJ. Williams, J. o. Levander
and John Cuddy, the persons elected

from Attorney General Roberts say
ing that law had been passed by the
Legislature giving the governor power
to appoint county officers in place of
those who failed to qualify according
to provisions of section II of the
