Richfeld, Aug. 3O.-There is consider
able talk not favorable to the Rio
Grande Western Railway company be-
ing INDUCED in because of the very ir-
regular service which has been given
the people of Sewer county. Only twice
last week was the train within three
quarters of an hour of being on time,
and it was nearly an hour late again
last evening.
The service at its best is very IN
satisfactory, the trains being run on
freight schedule time, and when the
trains are used also for depositing ties
along the railroad and other construc-
ton work, the service becomes abomin-
able. There is talk now of not only
protesting against the present irregular
service, but of asking for a better and
independent mail and passenger SER
vice, which the people of this county
believe they are entitled to.

SAN DIEGO, June S.-As special to
the Tribune from j. D. Edmond, a
reliable business man Of this city, now
at Ensenada, reports the arrival there
this morning Of the steamer ST. Denis
direct from the San Rogue placerss with
reliable information concerning them.
Five hundred miners are on the
ground, and miners are pouring in from
the east and southern portion Of the
peninsula.
The placers are reported poor, and
the results of the pay dirt already
worked out are not encouraging. There
are seven stores on the ground. A
camp will be established without doubt
on these placers, but unless new and
richer discoveries are made it will not
be a big thing. The miners on the
ground, however, express confidence in
their ability to find pay dirt in we'll
paying quantities.
