J. c. Richly, Il prominent INNING man,
has returned to Lewiston, Idaho from
Denver. where he went two months ago
to enlist capital in a mammoth placer
mining proposition. What has been
known as the Big Bar on Salmon river
has puzzled coyetous prospectors Tor 81
years. but engineering blunders and M
practical methods of operation have lett
the auriferous deposit intact for strong
company of practical mining men to
open and reap the golden harvest there
from.
The bar consists of an area Of more
than 100 acres of gravel 90 feet deep,
This vast deposit carries values from the
grass roots to the bed rock but the real
pay streak is at the bottom and only
seven feet thick. TO handle the tailing5
and strip the pay streak has been the OBJ
stacle to successful mining on this bar.
The pay streak prospects - yard and
on this work enough in drifting has been
done in crude way to build the Column
bia river locks.
A steam pump was put III place a few
years ago and it was used till the fuel
supply was exhausted. Then l0-mile
ditch was constructed from Il creek to
the bluff on the opposite bank of Salmon
river and the water was brought across
that stream in Il suspended pipe 1900 feet
long. This seven-inch pipe was too small
1t would supply only 80 inches OF water,
