practically gives that company the control
of that claim, and completes important

From the present outlook it will not be
at all surprising if, before the season of
1898 is far advanced. there will be up
wards of 800 quartz and placer miners

to Baker City, Ore, and that the yield of
gold for this year win surpass that of So
