Business In the Weippe.

Arthur >. Stacy and l.. Ben Howard, OF
the Lewiston Mercantile Co., who have
recently been to the Weippe country and
the French Creek mining district, state
that business in that section is very ac-
tive. Mr.. Stacy said:
"The mines on French Greek are all
looking fine and can safely say that the
outlook is very encouraging, their being
at least five stamp mills at work now
crushing out the gold. visited most all
the properties there, though went to
the Golden Gate principally, i'll which l
am heavily interested, and am satisfied
by the showing made thus far. The
property is very ably managed by Mr..
+. III. Wood, and we have now placed
the property on paying basis.
THE Crescent is running their mill now
and the showing thus far is very en-
couraging.
THE Klondike is now installing mill
which will be in operation soon, and
they are also erecting number of build
ings.
THE outlook for business is fine. The
whole country up there is fast becoming
populated and the merchants will all do
their buying from Lewiston, as the prices
quoted them are just as cheap as in Spo-
kane or Portland. We opened several
new accounts iii Pierce, Frazier and
other little stores on the Weippe prairie.
"a great deal of feeling exists between
the towns of Orofino and Greers, both of
which claim the only direct route to
Weippe and the French Creek country
and the citizens of Orofno have recently
begun the building of a road from there
to the Weippe country which they claim
is six miles shorter than the one now
travelled from Greers. This is denied by
the Greer people. However future de-
velopments will settle the matter.

The ArteSlan We'll

c. Weisgerber, in speaking of the ar
tesian we'll, which he has arranged with
Dowd Bros. to use their machinery in
boring on his property on A street, said:
~ have been thoroughly convinced of
the probability of boring for an artesian
well owing to the demonstrations made
on the Dowd place in Tammany, the fact
is, l believe, we are directly in the ar
tesan belt l had intended to have work
started at once, but do not care to have
any delays in the work and have already
given orders fc the caseirg and other
material necessary to work with. There
will be no hitch and as quick as every
thing is on the ground l will have the
work pushed. have no idea how far
down we will have to drill before secur-
ing results, but that makes no difference
to me, will keep OIL boring till l strike
the how.'
