great or small according to the
activity of it's mining industry.
The prosperity of agriculture,
then, bears at present o pointed
relation to the prosperity of min
ing in this county. They must
rise or fall together. Hence,
mining demands the attention of
not alone the capitalist, but the
farmer, the merchant and the
professional man as we'll. Keep
ing its Importance in view, the
following history of mining
present, past, and prospective
together with statistics relating
thereto, is given as fully as space
will allow /:
Placer mining beginning with
the discoveries in Stanley Basin
in 1862, it is found they were &C
lively worked for ten years, pro-
ducing, according to reliable es-
Inmates, $500, 900 in that time;
since then a few men have work
ed there a few months yearly,
producing about 800, 900 more.
To show the richness of this
ground, it may be stated that in
early days one man with a
"rocker" took out as much as
5000 in one day. Loon creek,
before mentioned, produced
5000. 900 in three years. Placers
on Yankee Fork were first sue
cessfully worked in 1870, and a
few men, in brief yearly seasons
since, have produced at least
$780, 900.
The existence of so much gold
in the beds of the creeks led to
the reasonably theory that ma
ture was somewhere hiding
away huge lodges of mineral
wealth, from which the waters
had washed away but the out
cropping quartz. AS usual, the
placers in those regions stimu-
lated the energy of prospectors
for quartz. In both Stanley
Basin and Loon creek goldquartz
claims, rich on the surface, have
in recent years been discovered,
but still await development.
From one claim on Loon creek
ten tons of free gold ore were
last crushed at Custer mill, yield.
ing 1920 per ton. On Yankee
Fork, in 1875, the Charles Dick
ems was discovered; in 1876 anC
1877 the Custer, Unknown, Mon
tana, and other famous mines
were found. About this time
the Ramshorn and other claim:
were located in Bayhorse dis.
trict, followed up by discoveries
at Clayton, East Fork, and
Squaw creek; and last year i'm
portant mines were found or
Lost river. At present there are
about 1000 mining locations in
Custer county. divided in si1
prominent districts, viz /: Los
River, on the stage road from
Blackfoot to Challis, about fit,
miles south of the latter; YANKEES
Fork, thirty-fve miles west o
Challis; Bayhorse, twelve miles
up Salmon river, southwest o
: Challis; Kinnikinik, sixteen milei
south of Bayhorse, on Salmon
river; Squaw Creek, four mile
farther south; and East Fork
thirty-five miles up the stream
of the same name.
The group of mines or Custe
Mountain, collectively known t,
the mining world as the Custe
Mine, has been by far the larg
est bullion producer in Custer
county. Considerable litigation
hung over two mines of thi
group-the Custer and Unknown
.-soon after their discovery, an,
| beyond shipping about $50 ton
!, of ore for reduction elsewhere
valued at $3.50, 900, there was NJ
