Since the killing of Poor at wooley by
Customs Inspector Baird the fact is called
to mind that under practically similar cir
cumstances one Holt was shot at Salmon
bay year ago. In neither case was
there the slightest necessity for shooting.
The fact that a man is an officer gives him
no right to shoot down other men. and
this is fact which officials do not always
seem to bear in mind.

the difficulty is in gong up or down hill.
TIL Inns.
Work in the mines is progressing rap
idly. The Leviathan is TO- down seven
ty-fve feet. This claim was located July
30 last BY L. d. Chase. W. 1. Frank and
p. F. Wood. Later J.. W. Fox. NJ.
Dawson and Mr.. Sartoris of Laramie
bought an interest in it. The Leviatban
is considered one of the best mines in
camp, At the bottom of the shalt there
are two or three feet of quartz and fifteen
or twenty feet of ledge matter-a decom-
posed rock as soft as dirt. The owners
say gold car be banned from both the
quartz and ledge matter. The Acme is
now down thirty-seven feet and is looking
well. New shaft houses rave Just been
finished st the Blae Bell and the Conflict
and work will be continued on both
shafts.
Clinton Folsom has taken a contract to
sink a fifty foot shaft on the Omaha and
~twenty-three feet further on the Star of
Wyoming, which is now down twenty
seven feet. He will begin the work at
once. Both these leads are owned by
Hugus, Mullison and Beall of Saratoga.
Work Is progressing on the Laramie and
Little Bonanza leads. 1t is hard to find
a piece of quartz in either of these leads
from which gold cannot be PANIED and
they are certainly good properties. MIR.
Tilden aud several other gentlemen from
the valley made a visit to the mines this
week. Mr.. Tilden bought one claim on
which some development work had been
done, and six other locations. He will
let the contracts for the sinking of shafts
as soon as possible. There are verv few
men here prepared to take a contract of
sinking shafts and a few practical miners
could find employment.
RoUGHING IT.
Nearly all of the men here came in
late last fall aud have had a rough time
of it. They have had to build their
cabins aud shaft-houses in midwinter
themselves handling the logs as the snow
has been so deep that animal, could not
be used. To all except two cabins the
men have 20 carry everything that is used
from a half mile to a mile and a halt upon
their backs. Some of them carry from
the Keystone mine, thirty miles distant,
and packed part of their provisions in
upon horses and the baiance uron their
backs making the trip on snow shoes.
One party Of five in making a trip from
the Keystone got caught in a terrible
snow storm aud was out two days and a

GOLD HILL
Another Letter From Wyoming's
Promising Camp.
Work on the Claims Still Moving
Briskly Forward.
Prospects Frightening as the
Shafts Go Deeper.

Special Correspondence.
SARATOGA. Wyo., March S.-The
Cheyenne party which left Chey-
enne last Monday for Gold Hill, as men
toned in Tuesdays LEADER have re-
turned from the mines. With the TX
ception of just a little cold to contend
with, the trip has been one continual
round OF pleasure. The old adage.
business before pleasure is usually re.
Yersed when one visits Gold Hill and
more attention is given to snow shoeing
than investigating the mines.
SATISFIED WITH THE OUTLOOK.
However, at least two OF the Cheyenne
party are satisfied with their trip, not only
with the pleasure ii afforded but from a
business standpoint. The third sees a
a chance to make some money in more
ways than one and expects to return in a
few DAYS. 1t is evident that now is the
time to get in on the ground floor and
Mr.. Richardson is probably looking for
large game and will no doubt return pre-
pared to bag it next time.
THE TRAINs-How TO GET THERE.
Parties wishing to visit Saratoga aud
Gold Hill NAV take either passenger train
at Cheyenne and reach Saratoga the next
day and Gold Hill the third evening.
There is more to be seen and the cost
of a trip no more if one takes the flyer
which leaves Cheyenne in the morning
By so doing Rawlins is reached about 3
D. m, thus giving plenty of time TO look
over the county seat. The traveller would
then take the east bound passenger train
next morning, reaching Fort Steele a few
minutes later and in time to t,ke the
stage to Saratoga. At present the flyer
does not stoD at Steele but a petition Is
being circulated aud largely signed re-
questing that all trains stop there when
signalled. By taking the afternoon train
as one party did a day is saved but Fort
Steele is not reached till midnight.
THE TRIP FROM CHEYENNE
seems quiet novel. The first III miles is
made on the cars over the Unious Pacific,

half with nothing to eat. Sherman
Lutte, a boy Il years old. was one OF the
party. He became 50 iatigued that he
could hardly travel in the snow. The
horses were heavily packed and If thaF
had not been it was too cold to ride. So a
rope was tied to the tail OF a mule and
Sherman by holding onto the rope man
aged to drag into camp.
INTERESTS HARD To GET.
The miners after Drawing such hard.
ships and having confidence in the rich
ness of their claims think it foolish to part
with ever a small interest except at good
figures. They do not expect to sell A
prospect for the price OF a mine but pre-
Ter to develop their claims. Although
more han a hundred locations have been
made in the Gold Hill district within two
miles square, not more than a dozen
claims have been sufficiently developed to
know positively that they are good. 1t is
almost impossible to buy one that is
known TO be good and very hard to buy
even a small interest, except when some
miner is compelled to raise a grub stake
IN order to continue development work.
The miners are verv fortunate in this re-
spect, however, and are not often com

Saratoga Soda Lakes.
In the recent article on Gold Hill,
Saratoga and the Platte valley published
IN The LEADER your correspondent over
looked the soda lakes which are situated
only a little over a mile from Saratoga.
These lakes will be one of the most
important factors of the future manu-
featuring interests of the valley. Ten
holes from six 10 ten feet deep have been
dug. These holes are filed with soda which
is 30 per cent pure. The deposit Is at least
ten feet deep. During tho year ending
June last" says the Platte Valley Lure,
"30S, $50, 773 pounds of soda in Its
manufactured form was imported
from England auG one half Of
it was used in the manufacturing of
! glass There has been much talk of
establishing glass works in Wyoming.
There can be no better place in the state
for the location Of a glass manufacturing
plant than at Saratoga after the railroad
shall have built up the Platte Valley. All
of the materials, soda, sand, water and
coal, are found in this immediate vicinity
and of the very best quality.
The lakes spoken of are owned by W.
B. Hueus and Nellie NJ. Hngus of Sara
toga and D. W. Gill, Luke voorhees,
add Florence Voorhees, Of Chey-
enne. Deposits of soda and oil
lands may be located under the placer
