SAN JUAN PLACERS.
Some Gold in the Pine River Bars but
Many Obstacles to be Over
come.

For some weeks past reports of valu-
able placer discoveries on Pine river, San
Juan county, have been current and it is
refreshing to note the care and pains the
press of that locality has displayed in
gathering the facts of the case. The
Times has persistently refused to say
much about it until personal examina-
tion could be made. After auch investi-
CATION, the Times states that it is by no
means poor mans prospect. Capt. W.
S. Sanderson says it is simply flour or
float gold and can not be saved; for the
Times man, Mr.. Gillian washed ont two
pans of dirt from bar on the Aztec Min
ing company's claim that averaged about
sixty colors to the pan, but SO fine that
most of them could scarcely be seen in
the black sand. The whole river bed is
located for distance of six miles. The
Aztec company has five men at work con-
structing sluice to make q test of the
fields. But should they have gold the
prime difficulty will be in disposing of
their tailings. There is very little fall and
the dirt will have to be shoveled in and
then out and carried off, making it very
expensive undertaking, to say the least,
and one that will be interrupted with
every rise in the river.

There is one ox-Republican official in
New Mexico who owns and controls one
of the best weekly papers in the territory
and who ought to be u happy man. His
name is Henry Sturges, of the Springer
Stockman. He has, in addition to his
plant in the newspaper line, q farm of
eighty acres under the Maxwell grant
system, in Colfax county. He is the only
editor in New Mexico who milks his own
COWS; break and drives his own horses;
rides his own reaper, and sails his own
yacht on the big lake in front of his
house. He only broke the sod on his
farm last year, but scribe of this paper
who visited the ranch last week says he
saw thousand watermelons on his vines,
corn-stalks over eight feet high and ,ege
tables enough to keep a dozen families
for the next three or four years.
