We in this neck of woods have not.
as yet, been represented in the SIG
NAL; that, however, l happen to know
is not your fault. thought l would
treat your readers to what may be
regarded as a sensational morsel, if
not scandalous; it surely borders on
the ridiculous. We will treat the
matter under the following heading
"Will Foreigners Ever Become
Americanized?"
We think so, yet from recent events
that have TRANSFERRED and which, it is
said, will eliminate in a sensational
law suit it would appear that an
American or un-American citizen has
little or no conception of free insti-
buttons, or the rights of men under
them, when he will deliberately op-
pose and, by all means in his power,
try to defeat the beneficent project of
an entire community to build re-
spectacle wagon road out of their
neighborhood to connect them with
the outside world; yet, nevertheless,
such is the way our worthy (or I'M
worthy neighbor manifests his pro-
gressiveness. Hence, quite naturally,
as might be expected under the cir
cumstances of one man trying to
corral community in, without road
out, the good people of these upper
valleys turn out and commence con-
structing a wagon road, which they
expect at no distant time to have
completed and which will be credit
to the county and those who volunteer
their labor in constructing it. But
now comes the sensational part. The
said new road coming in conflict with
the above described gentleman's irrl-
CATION ditch at certain rocky point,
and there not being sufficient width
below the huge boulders for the road
it becomes necessary to change said
ditch and make a new one some five
or six feet to one side for some five
or six rods, which the men at work on
the road proceed to do in good and
workmanlike order, filling up the old
ditch at this point, which insures
them space for the road, and proceed
Herewith. Now comes this citizen,
uttering all the imprecstions and NAL
edictions his limited vocabulary can |
conjure up, swearing by all the saints
in the calendar that be will not rest

MULE sKINNERs AT WORK.

To a man up tree it does seem
as though our tariff was so arranged
that every American consumer has to
pay an advanced price so that foreign
countries can be supplied at from rs
to 80 per cent less than we pay. An
other weight that puts a permanent
hump in our American backs is that
the farmers are scaled down in prices
so that the cost of living may be re-
duced to minimum and an excuse
made to cut wages. But the other
fellow down east must be taken care
of. Any commodity that the farmer
raises he is forced to sell at price
set by the purchaser. A train load
OF cattle or hogs on big market can
not be sold on their merits; the price
is fixed, the same rule is forced when
he wants to buy and he must pay the
price demanded. It's clear case of
"heads | win tails you lose." But
all this is merely in order that eastern
working men may be protected. You
must pay a tariff on shoes, and yet
your children can run over the rocks
with unprotected feet. Protection is
very fine and has transformed all the
wealth of the west to the eastern sea
board. There was a time when the
robbers would kindly leave us a por-
ton Of what the laws enabled them to
steal but at present even our securities
are not negotiable. We have no in
tention of abiding these matters in
political or party sense, but from
strictly selfish stand point The
system has been for one party to hold
the west and the other party do the
skinning. Then for variety they oc-
casionally change positions and be-
tween them they have got our western
hide on the fence.

have so many natural advantages
here that are not enjoyed by those

roads are all that is lacking so we can
invite some homeless, worthy people
to make home among us; for there
is some good land to be homesteaded
but enough for this time.

HORNET CREEK.

Ed. SIaNAL:-Some people say
this is dull place and there is
nothing new. Now, with our stock
fat, grain growing, grass fine (knee
high), orchards in bloom, all the neigh
bors living in harmony and working
together for the good of the com
munity, as well as themselves, is news
compared with the wrangling one
hears of in the outer world.
For time the farmers were afraid
the crlckets would take the crops, but
no one stopped work and every one
has in larger acreage than usual in
grain; no criskets have appeared yet
and we hope they will leave us severely
alone.
The cattle buyers did not pay
enough to induce those owning steers
to sell any.
Jacob Lakey had the misfortune
to drown his team on saturday last.
1t seems he drove into Hornett creek
with light rig and when almost
across the horses stopped and no per-
suasion would induce them to 90 out
OF the water. Mr.. Lakey, seeing the
vehicle was going to capsize, by hard
work saved his wife and baby, all
thoroughly drenched, leaving his team
for a minute which wag washed down
to a drift short distance below and
was drowned. He recovered the
wrecked blackboard and harness the
next day.
Walter Harrington has come back
to bear the burdens of the farm for
his father whose health is poor.
Uncle Jimmy Smith, age rs, is
fencing of meadows and improving

Mr. Peck and sons are making

They are getting one and two colors

Mr.. Montgomery, who lost about
200 head of sheep last winter, is now

MEMORABILIA

ED. SIGNAL:-By request | viii
give a brief outline of work going OF
in the various mines in camp.
The famous Little Giant, we'll know
as one of the best gold producers O
the state, yielded up this winter it
usual amount of rich rock, on which
the five-stamp mill is now running
day and night. The work this winte
was done by winze, 35 feet below
what is known as the Worlds Fai
block, or from which block or part O.
ledge the splendid piece of quartz
was taken that went to the Fair
From bottom of winze the levels
were driven east 60 feet, west 80 feet
blocked out, and stopping going on al
present The grade of rock does moi
vary much Throughout the slopes.
Three wines have been sunk below
the lowest level, all below creek level,
and do not show any difference in
character of quarts or any falling off
of free gold.
A hoist now on the road between
Salmon Meadows and camp will be
got in and set up as early as possible,
when the first deep mining of the
camp will begin. The shaft will go
down in what is known as the 1SO- foot
schultz.
The Knott NINE, owned by ex-Gov.
Wiley, has been working all winter
on very good grade of rock; in fact
has been running steady ever since
the governor returned from Boise and
took charge. This mine is also
worked by tunnels, of which there
are three. At present all work is
going on between the second and
lowest tunnels. From present tun-
mel, which is run from mill level, all
ores from upper workings can be
dumped directly in mill. The Knott
mine has a five-stamp steam power
mill and has been running through
most Of tho wiptor
The Good Enough mine, owned by
Click & Moffat, is a parallel ledge
to the Little Giant mine, 1900 feet
south, ON which work was started last
summer by drift on ledge from
surface, which at present writing is
in 300 feet, showing splendid ledge
of which the entire length is in
good grade of free gold rock. Work
has been pushed on this property all
winter.
Work on the Mayfower goes right
along. The mill was started few
days ago and the rock taken from
mine this winter will be run, while,
with additional forces, the slopes will
be taxed quite heavy to keep the mill
Patterson Bros. & johnson have
aiken out lots of fine rock, on which |
heir arrastre will be running in a
short time.

A cynic writes to ask why it is
that Legislative bodies seldom lose
an opportunity to investigate charges
made against wealthy corporations.
This cynic can guess as well as any
one, but we~will give him start by
suggesting that he ask few con-
gressmen.

Perhaps 1T was the report that the
naval officers now investigating the
armor fraud, at the Carnegie mills,
were served with iced champagne in
stead of ice water that caused the
idea of a congressional investigation
of the case to become so suddenly
popular at Washington.
