SILVER CREEK

Col. n. J. Sharp returned from
Yellow Jacket and Silver Creek
camps one day last week. The
Colonel informs US that work is
progressing at this camp in a fine
manner, and that there is plenty
of good ore in sight, and a large
force of men are being employed.
The above named gentleman
went out there to have some ore
worked that has been taken out
of one of his claims. The Colum-
bia property at that place is not
being worked to any great ex-
tent at present.
At Silver Greek a great deal
of work is being done, and a big
force of men employed. The
company are erecting a 50-ton
mill, building a wagon road from
the Fourth of July. and doing
considerable other work. The
ore of that country gold predom
mates. but they are base, and
the cyanide process and electri-
city will be used in treating
them. A dynamo will be put il
to furnish power, which viii bt
loperated by a Pelton wheel, as
there is plenty of water to fur
nish a good power. This. from
all indications, promises to be
good camp. There is also con
\ siderable prospecting beins
done, and some good prospects
being found. NJ. H. Couove
and Steve VanCamp. of Challis
we learn recently discovered
ledge, the ore of which assay
S33 in gold. and we hear of othe
good strikes. The Colone
brought in with him some samr
les OF ore that he found in tn
creek bed and gold can be plain
Iy seen with the naked-eye. Thi
camp means much to the citizen
of Challis and the valley, for
! only short distance from II
and it is by nearly one-half neal
Ter than Salmon. 1t said by me

who are experienced in road
work, that a good wagon road
could be built to connect with
the Challis & Yellow Jacket road
to this new camp for the small
sum of $3O0-in fact it is anatur-
road way, and the distance is
nothing compared with other
routes. 1t behooves our people
to look after this matter, as via
Challis is by far the shortest and
best route to Silver Creek. The
road now being built from the
Fourth viii cost-the contract
price. 50, 500. There is some
difference between the cost OF
the two roads-and we can build
a better road for $500 from this
way, we are informed. This fact
alone establishes which is the
best route. Silver Creek is al.
ready beginning 70 resemble q
town, as parties are busily en-
gagged getting out material for 9
hotel, saloon and other buildings
