son Barring about 10 days,
it has been either raining or
showing during the month of
May. There are some men
in this camp who have been to
Klondike, and | have heard
them remark that the changes
there in summer from 80 to 70
degrees, is very trying on the
human system, but the weather
has beat that here this spring.
1t is the result, probably, Of
the mild winter just passed,
and Old Boreas is paying off
his winter derelictions.
However, those who seek
for gold are not dismayed at
difficulties, and the camp is
moving on at its usual rate of
development. The Cleveland
mine is at present leading the
van as a producer, with its ac-
knowledged precedence of free
gold yield. The owners of
one mine refused, the other
day, a good offer for their
property from a capitalist,
which is related to me by one
who was present and heard
the negotiations, an offer to
bond for $4,000, with $1o,.
900 down, and guarantee to
erect a 6o-stamp mill. which
would be left on the ground if
the mine was not paid for.
There are many original
mine owners who die paupers
while holding on to valuable
property, because they can
never agree to accept the rea.
sonable sums they are offered.
Nearly all mining camps are
kept back from production
until the original owners die
off and their mines fall into
the hands of men who have
the means to work them. Elk

In commissioner BriScOe' s
letter published last week, il
is gravely urged as a vindica.
ton of the action of the board
that the expenditure for road
purposes in the mountain dis
tricts last year were greatly in
excess of the revenues for road
purposes.
While this is no doubt an
actual, frozen fact, we do not
see in it any good reason for
suspending work this year.
To the best of our knowledge
and belief all that money was
spent on our mountain roads
to the very best advantage;
and the community at large,
and more particularly the far
mers of Camas prairie, were
largely benefited by having
these roads put in passable
shape.
1t is also further stated that
the total assessed value of all
the mining property in the
county is only $4,000. If
this is a fact, which we seri.
ously doubt, then it shows the
grossest dereliction in the as
sessment of taxes upon this
class of property. But even
admitting that all the mining
camps of Idaho county only
pay taxes on $4,000, what of
it? The benefit derived by
the people of Camas prairie
from the development of rich
mining camps at their very
door, is not to be measured by
the amount of money which
the said mining camps con-
tribute to the county treasury,
but by the market they afford
to our farmers for surplus pro-
duce which they could not
otherwise give away.
We venture the statement
that the cash value of the eggs
and butter alone, shipped into
the mines by Camas prairie
people last year, exceeded the
amount of county money which
was expended upon the roads
to the mines. This may ap.
pear a most surprising state
ment to some, out it is easily
demonstrated. Two years
ago the first hay press was
imported into Camas prairie.
To-day there are a dozen.
What are they used for? Ex-
clusively to supply the mining
camps and business dependent
thereon. And so it goes in
every line of industry.
Without the market in the
mines Camas prairie would be
today the most hopelessly bro
ken and bankrupt community
in America; and whatever of
prosperity there is here today
is attributable solely to the
money being expended in and
upon and produced by the
mines.
Predecessors of the present
board have already lost to the
people of Camas prairie the
trade of Warren camp and
the great mineral belts ada
cent, all of which used to be
centered here, and which was
