EDITOR PIocHE REcoRD-Dear Sir :
Being sojourning In this semi.tropical
portion of Lincoln county. drop you
few notes of the happenings in some of
the camps, which may interest your
readers.
PROSPECTIVE GOLD CAMP.
send you by this mail sample of ore
taken from new gold prospect, the
Lucky Dutchman," owned by Messrs.
Stewart, Wiser and Meyer. The ore as.
sayed $500 in gold-no silver. The
new find is % miles northwest of Ell
Dorado Canyon and about p miles south.
east of the Los Vegas Ranch This being
a comparatively uuprospected region, no
idea can be formed as yet as to what gold
riches this portion of Lincoln county NAV
contain. However, we know that the
gold is here, and. what is better still, in
paying quantities. As soon as the wealth
or moderates. the owners of the Lucky
Dutchman" intend to develop the claim,
being convinced that they will add
another to Lincoln county's now numer-
GUS gold camps.
Ell DORADO CANYON.
III Dorado Canyon is still holding its
own. The old "Techeticup" lie turning
out ore in quantity and quality to employ
about forty men.
j. McGregor is working his gold mine
and running an arasta with highly profit
able results.
John Heus' new discovery near the
once famous Wall Street promises well.
Several other gold prospects are to be
worked as soon as cool weather sets in,
and notwithstanding the disheartenine
outlook which the slump in silver has
presented to us, We are strongly inclined
to believe that the new gold discoveries
IN this section of the county will have
the tendency to alleviate matters consid.
srAbly.
GOOD SPRINGS.
This camp is experiencing quite boom
just now. Sam Godby Is putting up q
l0-stamp mill at Mesquite Wells. Six
lo'mule teams are busily engaged in haul.
ing building material. provisions, etc., to
the new millsite.
Rumor has it that Mr.. Harrison con.
templates putting up a lO.stamp mill al
or near Good Springs. which will give
that country two l0-stamp mills. This
for starter is good enough.
We have had only meager news from
across the line, i. e., Vanderbilt and New
York. Only about ten or fifteen men are
working now, which number will b.
greatly increased as soon as cool weather
sets in
With best wishes for the future wei
fare of The RECORD, and with SINGER,
prayer for the restoration Of silver to it,
just and right value, including free coin
age, remain yours trnly,

With the repeal Of the Sherman act
the country will be practically on a gold
standard. There will then be no law to
maintain the parity of gold and silver
silver will be virtually demonetized.

IL L. n Mistake.

HELENE, New. Aug. 2s, 1893.
EDITOR PIoCHE RECORD: see in the
RECORD of Oath inst, that your CORES.
pendent from this place says that had
enrolled the names of the men in this
district and found there were sixty. five
men in Helene, Golden and April Fool
canyon and estimated ITO men in the
district. Now that is all mistake. as I
have done nothing of the kind. The
postmaster handed me request from q
house in the East and requested me to
make list of persons receiving mail at
this office, which did, and there was 81
names in all and some of them were
absent at the time but were expected
back very soon. Now, statement Of
that kind hurts our camp and your CORES.
pondsnt should get facts before he
writes matters for publication.
Yours. etc., W. H. MEEK.

Chicago journal 1894.

For The Chicago Journal and its
readers the year 1894 promises to be a
noteworthy and eventful one. True,
there will be no great overshadowing
festival like the Worlds Columbia
exposition to rivet attention and en-
gross the wonder and admiration of the
world. Neither, let us pray, will there
be another financial cataclysm, sweep
ing hundreds and thousands of staunch
business houses and enterprises into
ruin and distress, as has been the hard
experience of the passing year.
One of the great events of 1894 will
be the peoples rectifcation of their
blunder of 1892. But before this is &C
complished The Chicago Journal will
report one of the most important legis-
lative struggles ever witnessed i'll
Washington. The lines upon which
the battle between British free trade
and the protection of American indus
tiles must be fought have been sketched
out in the Wilson Tariff bill! AS the
debate progresses it will be the duty
of The Journal to discuss it's features
in detail
