Found q Ten Pound Nuggst.

The "Bill Short placer mine" on
Salmon river, just above the mouth
of Little Salmon, is one of the very
best placer mining propositions in
this or any other State. The pro-
perty was described at some length
in the FREE PRESS last January,
after personal inspection by the
editor. Among other items we
stated that a new ditch had been
dug to bring in larger and more
constant supply of water for the
purpose of working the claim on a
scale commensurate with its value.
The claim was then under bond to
parties whose attention had been
attracted to the property by Frank
Fem, in Boise City. Their option
expired July /.
Now for the sequel: On Tues
day Mr.. Lewis, of Rapid river, ar
rived in town and brought us the
following note from Mr.. Short
relating to finding the nugget:
FRIEND PARKER Found 1O-ft
nugget on 10th inst. AS property
has not been formally turned over
l shall claim the nugget.
Yours truly,

We heartily congratulate friend
Short on his good luck, but he

and circumstances of the find. II
will be noticed that in the excite
ment of the occasion he forgot tt

The .Schieter Case.

The remittitur in the Schieler
case having arrived from Boise last
week Judge Piper pronounced SEN
tence, and on Friday sheriff Greg
ory started to Boise with the pri-
soner. While the evidence was SO
plain on its face that the jury were
compelled TO find the verdict they
did, yet there were circumstances
involved which made the killing of
Wilson case of justifiablc homi-
eide, because it was done in obedi-
ence to the first law of nature-self
preservation. 1T is perfectly clear
to all disinterested parties who
know the circumstances, the char
acter of Wilson and the topogra-
ply OF the mine where the tragedy
occurred that Wilson took advan-
tage of George Riebold' 5 absence to
90 to the mine for the purpose of
having row with Schieler. The
latter, being blind in one eye and
knowing by instinct that there was
trouble in the air, took no chances
and shot Wilson dead in his tracks.

THE KENDRICK ROAD.

Spokane Review.
Kendrick, July 24.-For 60 days
every available man in town has
been pressed into service on the
Camas prairie and Kendrick wagon
road. To-day the road is complet-
ed to Clearwater. Starting from
Kendrick via the Wandshere gulch
u fine 8 per cent. grade was con-
structed. OF the many fine grades
leading into our little city this one
is pronounced the best. Once out
of the canyon the road takes di-
rect course to the Clearwater river.
There are no heavy grades or i'm
practicable roads over the entire
route. For 20 days a foi ce of 40
men have been constructing the
grade from the edge of the bluff
leading down to the rivers edge. 1t
is a splendid road.
The Kendrick portion of the road
is completed. The lumber is on
the ground and work has already
begun on the ferry by which the
travelling public will be safely
transported over the treacherous
Clearwater
The Camas prairie end of the
road is almost completed to the
river. Work is being pushed for
ward with all possible speed. This
great thoroughlare will soon be
open to travel. Then vast coun-
try will for the first time in its
history have direct and easy access
TO a railroad. A stage line, mail
route and freighting train will soon
be in operation unless prophecies
fail and the interests Of the general
public are entirely ignored. In
these depressed times the construc-
ton of this road is a marvel. 1t is
the highest possible tribute to the
energy, pluck and enterprise of the
projectors.
When men will draw on theil
scanty means in times like these
to carry forward gigantic enter
prise, they are entitled to the high
est praise of the present anc
entitled to the lasting gratitude o
generations to come. This roaC
will enhance the value of every
acre of land tributary to it, as wei
us the great country it opens up
Many towns will be benefited by M
extension of the their trade facili
ties, but none more than Spokane
