located Nos. 3. IL, 10. and 10 below
Discovery. These men did the first sluic-
Ing that was done ON the creek. and they
made the first cleanup with five boxes

Contest.

The Supreme Court convened yes
terday at the usual hour and rem
dered a decision upon the ballots which
have been objected to by the attorneys
for Mcmillan. Out Of 365 ballots OBJ
iected to there we're only 40 objections
sustained.
OF PIG ballots objected to by Sadler's
attorneys the court held l3 as vslid.
The balance in MeMillan's favor on
this basis amounts to SO. When Sad
ler's plurality of % is considered and
also the fact that many objections al
ready taken by his attorneys still re-
main to be passed upon by the court,
it would not appear that the relator
Mcmillan. had made as good a show
ing OF his case as was confidently eX-
pected by his friends and counsel.
The respondents case was opened
yesterday morning and if the general
average OF valid objections which the
results thus far have established cOn-

will be no doubt that Sadler Will be

A Good Scheme

made a very good move They have ex-
tended an invitation to Empire to par
ticipate in the general exercises and to
also furnish the Goddess of Liberty for
the occasion. Through sam Longabaugh
it was learned that the proposition would
be accepted and the riverside people will
at once begin preparations for the event.
Empire has always stood an With every
fourth and furnished many novel and in
teresting attractions. This year they will
probably outshiDe our own townsmen
and it's a sure thing that the Goddess
they select will be a beauty rs there are
some very pretty girls to select frem. It's
