We cannot imagine where upon this
round globe one could find as fine
weather as vein these grand old noun
tains, are enjoying these splendid au-
tumnal days. The cool, frosty nights
have given gay colorings to the leaves
on the willows and aspens, forming a
charming contrast with the dark irs
and brown grasses, and made orr noun
tain scenery show at its best, while the
days, with their bright sunshine and ge-
nial warmth. are the finest of the year.
Quite often this most delightful weather
continues here until nearly Christmas,
before the storms set in

The NUGGET mining expert has within
the past three years made freqnen. Wis
its to South Mountain. On his first visit
he was convinced that this neglected ,or
rather abandoned, mining district would
some day attract the attention of capit-
alsts who would again make it a thriv
ing camp. That there are immense
quantities of argentiferous galenas and
some very large copper deposits there,
are well known. What has kept them
from being worked up to the present
time is the fact that an abortive effort
was made to work them many years
ago by smelter when the coke used
was brought from Scotland to the mouth
the Columbia, thence up that river and
the Snake, whence it was freighted 400
miles. Under these conditions, and the
whole enterprise being, furthermore,
carried on chiefly for stock speculations,
failure was assured. Added to this,
the chief mining industries of this coun-
ty have been in free milling or amalga :
mating ores and all smelling PROPOSE
ton have been ignored. The success
made in concentrating the Flint ores
has put mining men to thinking Of the
deposits Of base ores in South Mountain
and there are now indications that it
will soon be busy camp. A sale of one
mine, taken up there only few months
ago, was effected last week for FIVE
thousand dollars, and within the last
week three different parties; one from
Coeur d. Aleane, one from Salt Lake
and one from New York have been try
ing to secure bonds on groups of mines
there. Locators have been busy, and
the recorders office at Silver City has
been Ike It busy filing location notices.
We recently asserted that were South
Mountain an entirely newly discovered
district, like La Plata, Utah, the rush
there would be like that to La Plata.
The indications now are that there will
be much activity there, and that some
of he properties will be worked for
all they are worth. We have faith in
their proving very valuable and we an
ticipate seeing thriving camp there
next summer.

We last week referred to rumor of a
strike on the Phillips & Sullivan ground
on Florida mountain. The rumor was
correct in regard to a rich strike being
made, but it was on ground rther
west, belonging to John Hearndon, Bar
ney Mattison and Harry Sullivan. They
have found ledge which they have
been hunting for all summer and have
found it near the surface, but have been
driving a tunnel from further west
W hich is now in three hundred feet and
will reach the ledge at considerable
depth when run fifty feet. The ledge
where cut near the surface is fully eight
feet wide and four feet of it is very rich
gold quartz, in fact so rich that in nearly
every sample taken gold can be seen.
Ike Phillips, who is not interested in
the find, declares it the richest pros
pect he ever saw on Florida mountain.
The owners are now pushing their cross
cut tunnel to cut il at greater depth,
with the belle that they will be able to
show up bonanza.

MINING NUGGETS.
THE FLINT DEAL coNsuMMArED

1hE Finn DLAb OONoOh lED.
The Chicago parties who held an op-
ton from Mr.. Leech on the Flint prop
erty were on the ground last week al d
announced that they would take the
properly, which will be transferred to
Them as soon as the papers can be pre-
pared. The price paid is six hundred
thousand dollars. They did not wait to
return home before making arrange
ments for extensive provements, but
wired an order for twenty more stamps,
in order TO get them running before
winter, and have arranged to put more
miners on. With the exception of the
DeLamar sale this is the biggest mine
deal made in this county for several
years. As it follows the resuscitation of
moribnnd camp, ii means more for the
mining industries of Owyhee county
than any transaction which has taken
place in the county for long time past.
The success of working these ores by a
cheap process of concentration will pni
new life in other districts. South Noun
tain has already felt the effect of this,
and properties there have appreciated
in value very materially. That dormant
district is now being sought after and
number of capitalists and spectators
have already been on the ground and
deals are now on the tapis which if car
ried through will revive that camp be-
fore winter.

would indicate that Capt. DeLamar had
not succeeded in securing the desired
site for Idaho's bnildipg. We will yet
bet years subscri ition to the best pa
per in Idaho, and leave i: to the winner
whether it be the NUGGET or the AVA
LANcHE, that Capt. DeLamar will not be
put off with any undesirable lot on the
expositicJ grounds:
"Mr. De Lamar. of Idaho, made very
foxy effort to secure Utah's location on
the grounds, but he fell into the con-
somme of disappointment. He stated
to the directors and the director-gene-
raj that Utah had made no appropria-
ton and that under the laws could make
none. AS an inducement, he offered on
behalf of Idaho to pledge that 100000
should be expended on the site and in
erecting buildings. Mr.. Lannan said
that he and Mr.. Kiesel had 10 explain
that as yet Utah had made no appropri-
alton, because the Legislature had not
yet had an opportunity to make one.
They assured them that Utah would
make one, however, and that it would
he good one at that. Also that Utah
was coming to the Fair with a building
an exhibit that would be second to none.
Mr.. DeLamar's goose was cooked from
that moment. Heis now trying to make
arrangements by which his state can
get part Of Ulah's site.

There are still many miners and pros

GET office to make to the publishers the
welcome remark 81 like your little
paper, and think it is doing me three
dollars worth of good this year by adj

for subscription" The NUGGET has
abundant evidence that it has helped
this camp and others in the county. 1t
has caused numbers of capitalists to
visit here, not by extravagant reports
about the mines and prospects, made for
the purpose of booming them, but by
telling plain facts concisely. Those
whom the NUGGET is trying to help
should help it. Ye who have been de-
linquent in the matter please stop and
consider if you don't owe Ito the paper
to subscribe. We doubt if there is one
of you who don't read il. having access
to it through some friend who does sub
scribe; but in that case subscribe any
way and give us the name of some
friend to mail it to. 1t is the outside
circulation which does the most good.

| We mentioned last week that meet
ing had been held to see what could be
done to organize a literary society in
town. We are happy now to announce
that an organization has been effected,
with very good material in it, and that
regular meetings will be held every Sat-
urday night. All constitution and hy-
laws have been adopted. The name
given is: "The Del amar Literary Ly-
ceumu The follwing named persons
have been chosen as officers: Presi-
dent, Thos Fall I; first Vice Presiden,
Alfred Young; second Vice President,
Thomas Oxmap; Secretary, Frank Proui;
Assistant Secretary, Chas. Oxman !;
Treasurer, Alfred Young. The Commit
tee will arrange for a regular pro-
gramme of exercises each week,to con-
sst of debates, orations, essays, rescita-
tions and vocal music. A bout twenty
members have already joined and a
numb of other young men have ex-
pressed a desire 10 take part.
The NUGGET man had the pleasure of
being present at The last meeting and it
pleases him TO report that the material
forming this emhyo lyceum is not of the
tickle sort, with which the novelty of
the meetings will soon wear off, as lie
has known it to do, when similar at
tempt was made in neighboring town.
We predict success for this organization
and heartily commend it to the young
men Of the town who prefer spending
some of their evenings in improving
their minds. When winter brgins here
and travel is impeded, We are likely TO
have several dull months and no better
method of finding entertainment which
carries improvement with it, can be
found, than this lyceum will afford.
