Threshermen's Association.

The adjourned meeting of Thresh-
men for st. Clair, Sanilac and Lapeer
Counties, met in considerable numbers
at Central Hall Oh Saturday last, and
perfected an organization and signed
Articles of Association and Bylaws.
Nearly if not quite all of the town
ships of st. Clair county from south to
and including Wales township, and as
far north as Washington township in
Sanilac county, were represented, and
it seemed to be universal sentiment
that fair and uniform prices should be
established.
1t was developed that very nearly
all of the Threshermen in the north
half of st. Clair county and all of the
territory in Sanilac county represented
were in favor of establishing rate of
cents per bushel for oats and all
hard grain, while in the southern por-
tion of st. Clair county it was ascer-
tanned that a large number of the
Threshermen in that vicinity were re-
ceiving cents per bushel for threshing
wheat, while they were receiving less
than 2 cents for threshing oats. To
meet this difficulty Articles of Associa-
ton were drawn providing for a rate
of not less than cents per bushel
straight, in all territory north of the
south town line of Kenockeee town.
ship in st. Clair county, and providing
that in case they choose to do so the
Threshermen of any township south of
that line might by mutual agreement
together, establish a uniform rate of
not less than IL cents per bushel for
oats, and not less than cents per
bushel for wheat and other hard grain.
Practically all of the Threshermen
present signed these Articles of Asso-
citation. Officers were appointed and a
permanent organization was perfected.
Another meeting was determined up
on to assemble at Central Hall in Yale,
on Saturday, July End.

and had not the rush began we would have
gone down after II. But IL was a long way
down TO Dawson, and the Indians made lots
OF money on the trail last year.
The discovery of the Klondike happened
so. kashes, with his wife and their children
was down at Circle City. Kashes got tired
Of working hard there with little to eat. and
when spring came he said to his wife: We
will go back to Lake Bennett They started
up the river and went for several days. Then
their provisions became scarce and Kashes
and his wife went hunting. They went up
the stream now called Klondke and about
noon Kashes got thirsty. They were away up
kashes went over. to the stream. got down
on his knees. and plunged his face into the
ice-cold water. 1t tasted good
On opening his eyes he was so startled
that he almost lost his balance and fell in
The creek was about two feet deep being
only branch of the big creek. He could
see the bottom plainly and 1t was covered all
over with something red. Kashes had seen
placer gold on the Stewart and Birch creek
bars 1t looked the same, but never had he
seen so much OF the precious stuff He
pulled back the sleeve of his flannel shirt and
dipped his hand in. He scooped along the
bottom and brought up a handful of great
big nuggets. He was very much excited
and called his wife. They did not know
whether it was true gold or not. His wife
did not know. All that night they thought
about it and wondered If it was good gold
The next morning they both quit thinking.
They had made up their minds 1t was true
gold.
"Kashes staked out the creek and soon
filled his buckskin sack full. He wanted to
make sure the gold good so he went
down the river nearly to Circle City, where
his wfe's sister, who had married white
man. was living. They were cutting wood
He asked his white brother in-law if the
gold was good. The white man said it was,
and wanted to know where .Kashes got it.
He ould not tell. Then one night Kashes
sneaked away with his children and wife and
went back to his gold pile. He mined for
some time. Then his white brother-in- law
found him and located next Eto his claim.
Then more white men came, and the KIon-
dixie was known all over the country. Then
came this fool rush this year. This Is the
real story Of the first discovery of the Klon-
dixie. s
This year I guess bis friends at Lake
Bennett will go down ard help him bring
out his gold. He has 5got more than two
millions in a little cabin back in the hills
from the other miners. Ii In fact, he has got
SO much that he has no idea, how much ne
has, -

gulch once that was valued at 81, 300,
but If 1T ever existed it found It's way
to the melting pot so rapidly that no
one today is able to swear positively
that he ever saw it. Another story
tells Of a $1,7O0 nugget, but this one
is not to be found. The big nugget In
the Conrad collection came from the
Snow shoe diggings, having original
ly been bought from miner named
Price
The nugget next in value IS worth

nugget, worth $3.50, came from Scratch
Gravel, where it was dug up by a
miner who had despaired of ever find
ing anything worth carrying away i'll

fortune was made when he struck the
$3.50 nugget, but this was the first and
last rich strike made in the mine.
Some of the larger nuggets in the
collection came from Highland mine.
