j. Massam and L. Venzac, who
are exploring their. new discov-
cry, the Del Rio, on American
river, have secured assays
as high as $2O9 from ore taken
from the ledge 35 feet below the
surface. At that point the ledge
is 5 feet wide, with the other
wall yet to be reached. The ore
pans free gold.
At present men are working

History Of the Road:

History OF the Road
With all these points. in. favor of the
outlook north the question naturally
comes to the person who is not familiar
with the circumstances, 'iWhy was the
road built from Bose, in the first
placer Politics, dear reader, politicsl
The Boise road was built principally by
state. appropriation, and, since the
south part of Idaho has more represent
atives in the legislature than the north
half, and there is. a hoggish, disposition
on the part of the law makers down
there, truth, jpstice-the very funda-
mental principles of government-,are
made to suffer, and all Idaho suffers
accordingly.
Mr.. Bell states that if the road from
the north could be extended to the sum
NIT across the Salmon, property own
ers would complete it to Copper Camp,
in Big Creek district. That means
81 miles of road to be built, by popular
subscription. In that distance there is
little timber, there would be no rock
work, and, with the exception of seven
miles across the river, the grade would
be very gradual. From the summit
there is "hog back" the remainder of
the distance, and Mr.. Bell statesl tive
men could complete the highway.
Districts are Promising.
Mr.. Bell is pleased with the showing
he made on his properties last winter
and he speaks in highest terms of the
districts, generally. He says no bettei
mining properties are to be found any
where, and he believes the time is moi
far off when capital will be attracted
! by the opportunities there.

John Smith, Rev. j. lies, Mrs.

This brought me to the Enterprise

DEATHBED
CONFESSION.

The mystery surrounding the
death of Edward j. Stauch at
Buckeye Lake on May Z, 1905,
has just been cleared, Stauch
was not accidently drowned. He
was murdered by Lewis Long
shore, who in deathbed confess
ion at Columbus gives the details
of the secret which for more than
two years gnawed at his verv soul.
On May 6, 1905, w. A. Priest
Of South Second street, Newark,
was drowned at Buckeye Lake.
Mr.. Priest fell from a boat and
and died before help could reach
him. On the following night
Edward Stauch, who worked at
the cash register factory, in Co.
lumbus, was drowned there.
The advocate of that date said
that Stauch, with two other men,
was in boat between Beech
Island and Bader's early Sunday
morning, when in some way their
boat overturned, Two colored
men heard their screams and
hurried to the scene and succeed.
ed in rescuing two of the trio, but
Stauch sank out of sight.
The death wasinvested and the
conclusion reached that Stauch
had been accidentally drowned.
Calling his mother and wife to
his bedside, corner of Main and
Fourth streets, Columbus, Monday,
Lewis Longshore, aged 81, made
confession that he was response
BILE for Stauch's death, For two
years the mans waking hours
were filled with the awful realizs-
tion that he had sent fellowman
to his death, and for two years
his sleep had bsen filled with
dreams that accused him of the
crime of Cain. AS death ap-
preached Longshore was unwill-
ing to go before his Maker with
an unconfessed murder on his
soul, SO calling his family to him
he recited the following story;
"You remember the May day
two years ago when | went to
Buckeye Lake to fish. Well,
among the party was Edward
Stauch. We left the city late at
night and as soon as we reached
the lake we started to fish. 1 got
into the boat with Edward and
we began to argue as to which of
US sheuld use the oars, The alter.
cation grew into fight. In the
end l secured one or the oars and
hit Edward over the head with it.
He fell into the bottom of the
boat after | had struck him and
when he did not rise / became
frightened, spoke to him sever
al times, but he did not reply. l
looked at him and then found that
he was still. l thought him dead.
l didn't know what to do. / was
alone on the lake with him. The
rest of our party was ashore. 1
knew that if they came to US, as
they would If called for help, j
would be accused of killing him.
"Whst could l dor l didn't
know. The lake was black be-
meath us and / thought that if /
raised his body and threw it into
the water everyone would take IL
for granted that Edward fell into
the lake and was drowned.
"Mother-dear-come closer.
/ did throw Edward into the lake.
l was the man who killed him."
And then Lewis Longshore him,
! self crossed the dark river.

Between the changes of the rural
routes and the general distressing
condition of the county roads
generally the farmers have much
to say. The rural inspector came
in for a moderate criticism but
the county commissioners got Hail
Columbia from start to fnlsh.
One representative farmer said,
"W hen the floods of 81 cut away
the Falls Mills and the Floyd

stances at that. The county was
