The Duffy Tunnel

G.. j. Duffy is now in charge of the
irrigation tunnel through Duffy
mountain, which will irrigate four
large ranches when the tunnel is com

Bear river.
The eastern entrance is now in a
distance of $50 feet, the western S9
feet, leaving over 1000 feet of rock to
be broken. The rest of the work will
be done> under contract An air

go over this week to mine the coal to
carry on the work.
This irriagtion scneme is unique in
this: The Bear river makes a swing
of over seven miles around Duffy
mountain; by driving this tunnel
through the mountain and piping the
water across the river greater fall
is obtainsd without the expense of 6

Red Cliff Nine Owners Protest

Red Cliff, Colo, Jan. Gone of
the most important meetings held here
in the past year was the gathering at
the Office of County Treasurer Little
of many of the claim ow ners of Girard
and Battle mountain to formulate
plans to conserve their properties
against alleged encroachmeuts of the
Rio Grande railroad IN the construc-
tion of the new grade through the
Eagle river canon. The concensus of
opinion was that the company would
not do justice in the matter of right
of way. and strong resolutions were
passed that the owners of property
would hold their claims at any cost
and prohibit the grade work on their
ground until matters were satisafc-
torily adjusted. Action was also
taken to notify the general land Office
that the railroad company was in
friuging on the law in appropriating
the only means of ingress and egress
Of the gorge. Further, a resolution
was passed stating. in view of the
great detriment to trade the control of
the canon route would be to the city
o; Leadville, the secretary was in
structed to notify the Cloud City gov
ernment and ask the cooperation Of
that body to wage war against the
continuance Of the grading work.
The miners who have held and worked
the properties here for many years are
loath to see their work go for naught.
They say while the railroad In the
canon was boon for Battle mountain

Inc construction OF Snelter Tor men
of sort of boarding house, and tempo
rary stable, as well of the sluicing
fume wherever necessary, should be
attended to before and completed not
later than on March 10, 1897; the
board of directors should find means
10 proceed with and make every effort
to complete these preparations in
proper time.
further suggest that on account of
scarcity of labor and the pressing ne
cessity for dispatch in this construc.
ton, the men at the work should be
paid at the rate of $3.50 per day of
nine hours, and l propose that a cash
fund of at least $500 be started, by as
sessments pro rata of shares, SO as, to
men promptly and to issue time
checks in case a man is laid off or
leaves on account of sickness.
Should an assessment be levied by
the directors to pay for the work of
this season, l suggest that the same be
divided over the months of May, July,
and August, and made payable on the
first days of each of these months. If
you should elect to act on the above
suggestions, We shall be in shape to
meet our obligations for all contin-
gencies of the season, and we will
have cash balance on hand for in
cidentals; and we will also be enabled
to raise the dam so as to give us from
| five to eight feet of water in the res
ervoir during the coming season.
| In the past it has been the plan, or
rather, the lack of plan, to go ahead
in some fashion to do the work, with
the results as visible. l do not wish
to cast any criticism upon what has
been done, but l believe that a care
fully prepared and well discussed pro-
gram for work for the coming season
should form the object of the board Of
believe that, with our earnest efforts
combined in that direction, we will ac-
complish our purpose.
All of which is hereby submitted for
your most earnest consideration.
Respectfully yours,
HENRY BOSCO.
No definite action has yet been
taken in regard to Mr.. Bosco's plan
but it seemed to meet with the gener-
al approval of those present and it is
probable that it will be adopted.
Another meeting was held last
Tuesday when it was decided to aban
don as quickly as possible the old
fume from Rifle creek which was
built about 90 years ago and which is
now so badly decayed that but a small
amount of water can be carried in it
and to substitute a ditch which can
be built for much less money than
would be necessary to construct new
hume.
At the meeting Tuesday the new
board let a contract for the building
of about 1120 feet of this ditch and
$50 feet of tunnel. This ditch and
tunnel will displace about 1900 feet
of the old hume and will be built
practically on the old hume grade
The cost of this work will be about
$1,000.
