L. E. Moses, one of the princi-
pal owners of the dredge boat in
Stanley Basin, and Ira McNeill,
superintendent, arrived in Chal-
lis one day last week from Pueblo,
Colorado. They were also ac-
companied by three mechanics.
1t is now Incorporated under the
laws of Missouri as the Sawtooth
Placer Mining Company Limit-
ed). Last summer this dredging
boat was constructed, but not be-
ing completed until late in the
fall, consequently its owners had
only short time to operate, but
the short run made was satisfac-
tory considering the disadvan-
tages the boat had to work under
insufficient steam power and a
weak cable to run the buckets
which was constantly a draw
back. This year they will start
the plant as early as possible,
prepared for long seasons run,
having brought with them a new
steel cable.
From the short campaign made
last season it was proven to the
satisfaction of it's managers that
the ground was a good dredging
proposition and would yield
handsomely when the dredge
was put in shape to do good
work. With past experience the
company are now fully prepared
to overcome the difficulties they
had to contend with last fall, anC
we feel confident that the man
agement will meet with success
this year
If this plant does what is claim
ed for it, it is said that Other
dredging boats will be put in the
Basin by different companies in
terested there.
The County Commissioners o.

been established from Robinson

Written for the MESSENGER by our Regular
Spring Poet.l
A lady walked with me one day,
When with sudden jump
She landed full ten feet away
With one foot on stump.
Her face suffused, and smiling asked,
AS she looked at me askance-
What's this infinitesimal insect,
have found within my pants
And replied, that mite, my dear,
You hold within your hand,
Is one of the many wonders
OF this glorious Silver land.
That brown backed bug
Crhe innocent little thing)-
Is nothing but woodtick,
And harbinger OF Spring.
With disposition like gimlet,
It's inclined TO be bore
And every where you find his mark
1t leaves an itching sore.
You have read from many poets
What March and April bring;
But they all forget the woodtick
When they write about the Spring.
