The question of sinking artesinn wells
and 20 make the county pay for it, has
been agitated for number of weeks
The opinions regarding the propriety Of
charging the cost of this experiment to
the tax payers Of the county differ ma
terially, and especially in locations
which are far removed from the valleys
There seems to be no doubt that if water
could be secured for irrigation by these
means for all the farms, which would
make a failure of cops almost an inn
possibility, the people would be willing
TO advance the money for this purpose,
providing the benefciaries would pay
back the amonnt thus expended. But
the sinking Of artesian wells is an ex
pertinent, and il seems just and right
that those directv interested should
bear the expense, and the News there
fore, would be in favor Of placing the
burden of paying for the sinking Of the
wells where it properly belongs, namely,
to the different townships, and not to
the county. If the experiment should
fall short of success. the farmer individ-
ually would not be out any more than
the prospector who does his annual AS
sessment work on claims which fail to
bring him the returns he expects from
his labor.-Harney Peak News.

WE WANT 1T NOW

The mining world, outside OF Custer.
is deeply engaged in the determination
Of process that can be proftably em.
ployed in the reduction of low grade
refractory gold ores. The effort being
made in this direction is especially in
teresting to the people residing in camps
where the higher grade ores are being
operated, but in this district, where
goodly portion of the ores are high
grade, and none are being operated. the
crowning desire, and crying want, is the
establishment Of reduction plant with
out especial reference to the cost Of ore
treatment. What is especially desired
here is tine innitial reduction plant that
will demonstrate the value of our ore
deposits to the outside world, which
would be followed by other plants in
rapid succession with golden results. 1t
is the high grade ores of this district to
which we would most desire TO have
public attention directed; the lower
grade ores viii claim attention in ttei-
regular order at some future period
when the more valuable deposits have
become operative. We want reduc
ton plant we want it without qualif
cation, We want it now, and Custer
should lose no time in perfecting az.
with that important end in
view
