the moment they found them
selves treated like anything but

them had acquired a grudge
against a boy named Wood who

and threats were made against his
life. He was assaulted finally by

The Tie Drive.

That the rear of the tie drive
was very close has been evident to
the people of this place by the
abundance of ties that have been
crowding the river here. A most
remarkable CENTER" as a tie jam,
which forms at the upper end of
an island, is called, has formed
opposite the Hot Springs bath
house. 1t followed right up the
river channel, into the rapids, and
then curved over to the left and
rests on the bank of the river. 1t
is over 600 feet in length and ia
one of the most remarkable sights
of the kind ever seen iu this river.
The drive is now passing thru
Saratoga, On account of the
large number. of saw logs in the
timber being hoated down this
year there is a remarkably heavy
"rear" this year. Many Of the
logs will have to be snaked back
into the river with teams.

Arrested For Setting Fire.

Forest Ranger, Geo. B.. Multi
son, arrived here late Saturday
evening with Ben Comes, a sheep
herder in the employ of the Blake
Sheep Co., of Rswlins, in charge,
whom he had arrested for build.
ing a fire in a windfall of timber
and going of and letting it get
out. After getting the fire under
control Mullison brought the her
der to this place and he was ex.
amined by U. s. Commissioner,
j. F. Crawford. The man is very
ignorant, not being able to read or
write, or to understand but little
English. 1t developed that he
had been over from Mexico but
three months and had been but
three days in the employ of the
Blake Sheep Company, and that
he had never been told of the
strict rules and regulations gov
erning fires on the forest reserves.
Judge Blood, who speaks Spanish
quite iuently, was called upon to
interpret for Comes, who frankly
confessed to setting out the fire.
Commissioner Crawford con.
cluded that while the man could
undoubtedly be convicted on his
own confession, and the evidence
of Mr. Mullison, that it would be
better to turn him loose on his
pledge to be very careful in the
future, and 30 the man was given
HE liberty 1t is safe to say that
he will not again set a fire where
it can possibly do any damage.

ANOTHER NEWS
PAPER LIBEL
Charge That Miners in the Med.
icine Bow Forest up Against
it Simply q Canard.

An article is going the rounds,
evidently emenating from the
Douglas Budget, and copied into
all the knocking journals, to the
effect that the miners in the Med
icine Bow National Forest are cup
against it" for timber, on account
oe the fact that the Carbon Tim
Der Company had gobbled up all
the available timber in that range
of mountains.
There is just about as much
truth in this as In saying that be-
cause the Carbon Timber COM
pany floats it's ties and timber
down the North Platte river that
they are destroying the water sup
ply. The Carbon Timber compa-
ny bought some timber from the
government on the Douglas creek
water shed. A large amount of
this timber is dead, having been
burned over, but this purchase
does not include more than one
fourth of the timber in that vicin-
ity, and the miners and others are
just as free to buy timber, if they
need it as any one.
Moreover, the Carbon Timber
Company is not permitted to cut
any green timber less than II
inches in diameter. This, of
course, leaves all the smaller tim
Der for props and mine timber for
the mines.
Again, the government has TAX
en- the care to g six whole
sections, three near the Florence
and three near the Holmes mines
for the use of those mines. This
arrangement was effected by the
business men of Laramie in con-
ference with Mr.. Pinchot. No
timber will be sold from these Sec
tions to any one outside of those
mines. This reservation was made
before the sale was made to the
the Carbon Timber Company.

LEIGHTON
WYOMING
Claims In the Battle Lake
Mining District. With Cop
per Lead Extending En-.
tire Length.

j. L. leighton, the general
manager of the Leighton Wyo-
ming Mining Company, of Dillon,
brrived here Monday from the
he east on his way back to Dill
ION. While here he spent about
b3OO with our merchants for sup
plies which are to be used in the
development of the Leighton
Wyoming mines. This is the
mining property of which, and adj
Joining claims, the Independence,
Congo and Pennsylvania claims,
will soon be connected with Sara
toga by a wagon road now being
built up Spring creek.
Mr.. Leighton is quite enthus.
astic about the Leighton Wyo-
ming. The building, by Fl. O..
Granberg, of a smelter on the In
dependence which adjoins the
leighton Wyoming on the north,
ia the near future, is going to
bolve the mining question for all
he mines in the vicinity of the
works.
Mr.. Leighton says that the cop
per lead extending the entire
length Of the Leighton Wyoming
is of the same character and gen.
eral formation as the lead in the
Famous Ferris Haggarty mine,
which is the property of the Penn
Wyoming Copper Company. To
quote from Mr. Leighton's pro-
Ppectus: ""The Leighton Wyo-
ming Mining Co., owns it's eight
claims under location title.
There r no contests or adverses
pending against this Company's
property, and it's titles r perfect.
"The Leighton Wyoming Min
ing Company's claims show out
crops of d%ecomposed spongy iron
zap, or gossan, overlaid by black
crumbling mica-chist, with a black
pill of norite above that, the con-
tact zone of over 40 feet in width
having a diorite hanging wall and
foot wall of lime, which is identi-
fal with the Ferris aggarty. At
b depth of so feet a strata of 81
feet sulphide ore has been cut,
carrying values in copper, gold
hnd silver of $24.75 to $1,000 per
ton.
"On the claim known as Last
Dollar No. 2 is a rich vein of gold
hre, a continuation of the vein
known as the famous Old Next
can, which has produced fabulous
values in gold, composed of free
milling porphrey, values running
from $1,000 to $3O2.7 70 per ton"
Mr.. Leighton informs the Sun
|that he has $4,000 in the Sara
|toga State Bank to use in the de-
Helopment of this property. This
fs the kind of talk that means bus
6iness, for we all know that the
development of these mines is of
the utmost Importance to the fu-
ture welfare of this country.
MIR. Leighton left Monday even
fng for camp.
