On one section of land on Salts )p Ever

From the Mining Districts.

LIBERTY P. o., August 18th, 1892
EDITOR STANDARD:
Since my last letter, couple Of
months ago, mining matters have
changed here in the Swauk Mining
District, as well as in the Peshastin
and Negro creek country. Martin
Lewis, of Shelton, and myself have
been on the go prospecting in the
above mentioned districts for the last
two months past; have made some
locations, but worked as yet on few
About one month ago the Culver
property, on Peshastin creek, was sold
to Mr.. Blewitt, Seattle party, for a
round sum of $4,000, mill and all
These mines have been worked, on
and off, for about - years, the ore
being worked principally by the arras.
ira process, which is under any circum.
stances slow process. The new COM
pany now is in full blast and some 40
or 80 men are to work at present in
the mill and mines. The company is
making preparations to put in a forty
stamp mill. Boarding houses, saloons
and one store, the latter run by
Messrs. Peterson & Johnson, of Ellens.
burgh, are running and the road be.
tween Cle-Elum and Ellensburgh and
Peshastin is fast being put in order.
The company also is letting bids for a
road four miles in length, to connect
with road already built to the Great
Northern Railway, at the mouth oil
Peshastin creek, so that next spring
500 miners may be employed in
Peshastin mines and mills-mean.
while Negro creek, about two miles
west of Peshastin, came to the front
with leads averaging 10 feet in width
and assaying from $50 to 800 per ton
Discovered lately, and in conjunction
with the Peshastin boom will open
this long neglected country.
But now comes the Swauk. We
have one claim here about northeast
of this office, called the "Toughnut
Of course you will say at once this i,
named after very noted character
istic of the writer. 1t is six fee,
between walls, containing the finest
quartz and prospects we'll in gold
In my near neighborhood are foul
or five other claims prospecting
we'll and showing good veins of quartz
Quartz mining on the Swauk, how.
ever, is still in its infancy. Now wher
you talk about the tariff on American
hogs in Germany and the gold found
in placer elaine, you know / must
say the German hog isn't in it. To
day Ben Pitcher, / am sorry to say one
OF your Democratic friends from
Ellensburgh, took out one nugget from
| OF his hydraulic claim next to Edmund
Rice's claim weighing just 5000 in
ounces at SIS per ounce. and still the
cry goes up, there is no gold on Swauk
The main trouble here is that dozen.
of claims are held by persons who
wilfully will swear that they have done
800 worth of assessment work or
their claims when if the truth is know
they have not expended one dollar
thereon, thus depriving others from
opening the country. We expect tt
open our claim soon, so as to be ready
for the boom.
l may be in Olympia in time for thu
Democratic Convention, SO as to see
whether or not you people have beer
improving the town or not. Will
thanks for papers sent to me. / an
yours truly, II. G. kIEsEL.
