Hugh Dougherty was in this
place Tuesday, and from straight
forward and unembelished story he
related to us we are inclined to be-

gan county, which will prove more
valuable than a gold or silver mine.

miner from Pennsylvania, and last
fall, while prospecting on Elk creek
he found good indications of a coal
vein. Since then be has at times
worked this prospect and exposed
to view, by tunneling, body of
what is termed dirty coal' to the
extent of SIS feet Mr.. Dougherty
has this summer been out working
for grub stake" and having sue
coed, he il now on his way to Elk
creek to resume work, feeling con-
fident that he will ere long find a
coal bed that will surprise the peo-
pie Of the Big Camas country and
also hasten the building of the Boise
and Butte railroad.
