The editor from time immem-

Seymour Tuxedo of the same
material, a green fedora and

married in the front room of the

sang the wedding march on the

OFFICIAL PAPER OF CUSTER co.
Custer Mines.

Clarence E. Eddy, the pros
pector of Lost Packer fame, has
again returned from Idaho foi
the winter, says the Salt Lake
Tribune. He says there is a
great deal of important news
from that section which has not
heretofore appeared in print, and
setting forth some of these
points he said: while there is
no great public boom on in Ida
no mining camps at this time,
there is a great deal of substan-
tial development in progress.
The present great era of pros
perity has not missed Idaho in
any respect but has spread to
every nook and inlet of her vast
mountains and valleys. | would
speak especially of mining de-
velopment in the camps where ]
have been located in the very in
terror of the state. The Loon
creek and Custer camps, some
10 miles south of Thunder noun
tain. The Lost Packer has pass
ed the stage of a prospect and is
a mine. A town has grown up
there with postoffice, school,
stores, hotels and saloons, OF
course. There is a 100-ton smell
ter and a steam plant driving
drills in four miles of develop
ment tunnels on the mine. Tele-
phones and electric lights are
being installed. The town is
called Ivers, after James Ivers,
the veteran mining man of Salt
Lake, principal owner in the
Packer. 1t does not look like
the place / discovered four years
ago the 18th of last July, for il
was then a solitude and the cry
of wild birds was all that broke
the silence. The Packer people
built a good wagon road into the
district from Custer, q distance
of 25 miles, at a cost of about
$4,000, and freights come 15(
miles from the 0. S. l.. branch
railway at Mackay at the rate OF
IL cents per pound.
Samuel Newhouse and as
sociates are developing the
ground just south of the Packer
across Canyon creek and from
indications are sure to get a con
tinuation of the rich bodies of
gold-copper-pyrite ore. Their
company is known as the South
Packer. Splendid ore has now
been found in the far north
levels of the main Lost Packer
mine, said to be from 5 to z feet
in width, heavy and yellow as
gold. The usual values of this
ore is about $3.50 per ton in gold,
40 ounces silver and % per cent.
copper. An impartial estimate
given me by Prof. BYRON James
of the School of Mines at the
Moscow, Idaho, University, on
his inspection of the mine some
months ago, was that the ore
then blocked out would supply
the smelter for two years anc
yield about ", 100000. A TEN
porary lack of auxing materials
has prevented extensive opera

the coming season will bring 8

of the placers. This property is
owned by Idaho and Utah parties
and test shipment of six tons
recently netted $120 per ton at
the Murray smelters. Under
equal development the Cash Box
will rival the Lost Packer. Salt
Lake parties have a placer com
pany which has been piping on
the bars below the Cash Box and
they are now preparing for great
bitches and hydraulic giants to
work these deeper gravel depos-
it's. The Loon Creek Gold Min
ing company, the Lost Eagle, the
Effie, the Shakespeare, the Lucky
Star and the Newman properties
are some other propositions max
ing good in this camp, and an
other town of some twenty build
ings named MCGOWAN has re-
Gently grown up, a mile above
Casio, toward Custer.
Crossing the divide to within
five miles of Custer we come to
the great Golden Sunbeam prop
erty, on large porphyry belt at
the base of old Estes mountain.
Very little has been said of the
Sunbeam, but it is sure to rise
fame next summer. Some esti-
mates that it has $40, 100000
practically in sight. The great
enrichment was never encoun-
tered and scarcely suspected UNI
til last spring, and 100000 has
since been taken out with asmall
water power Elspass roller mill.
| myself, in September, saw, by
courtesy of Superintendent G. e.
Gable, nearly as much gold as
as man could carry, heaped in
an iron basin at the company
Office, and there were bottles of
nuggets and bricks of gold the
sight of which would give the
gold fever even to a saint. This
property is owned by Pittsburg
parties, who have perfectrd plans
for a plant of 300 tons daily cap
acity to be put in the coming
season. They have bought
rights and lands fifteen miles be-
low, at Robinson Bar, on the
main Salmon river, where by
water power they will generate
electricity and, transmitting it
by cables, they will drive their
mills and light the canyon by
electricity. They will install
telephone connection with the
outside world via. the Bell line
at Challis, sixty miles below.
THE Sunbeam has bit of
history which | will give in
brief, but on which may have
hinged much mining history. 1t
will be noticed that Idaho has
not exactly made good on her
great booms of Buffalo Hump
and Thunder Mountain: there
fore the boom has passed else
where, especially to Nevada,
which is evidently making good.
If the great boom which came at
Thunder Mountain, in 1901-02
had come on the Custer and Sun
beam locality results today would
be far greater in favor of Idaho.
Let us see how the scene was
shifted. 1t was about the winter
of 1900 that Col. Dewey of
Nampa secured on the then OBJ,
scure Sunbeam property on Jor-
dan creek, near Custer, an OPP
tion on that property, then call
ed the Daisy, or rather the Bis
marck, after it's owner, an eccen-
trio old German. He had an
oyster can full of gold, no doubt
gotten from the property.
when Col. Dewey's brief op-
ton was about to expire without
sufficient test of the property
having been made, he sent his
son and present heir, Ed. Dewey,
to offer Bismarck a further pay
ment for an extension of time on
the option, but this not being
