A Big Mine.

The Golden Sunbeam mine on
Jordan creek is the largest min
ing proposition in the country
and there appears to be no end
to the low grade free milling
gold ore. At the present time
there is million tons of ore In
sight. It is like the great Home
stake and Treadwell mines-the
whole mountain can be mined at
a profit. When the new power
plant of 1000 horse power, and
two new mills are installed, max
ing a daily capacity Of $50 tons,
the Sunbeam can work S. ore at
a good profit, although they have
plenty of high grade ore in their
mines. We are told Mr.. Gable
recently refused $500, 600 for his
interests in this property.
The new power plant no being
installed by this company at the
mouth of Yankee Fork, it is es
timated will furnish 1000 hors'
power, and it is said that th'
Lost Packer at Loon creek, ant
the Valley Creek at Stanley, ar

Surveys Now On

t-1<4 s1Ss|f-es~ |
There is all kinds of railroad
talk these days for Custer coun-
ty. But it is an actual fact that
two large outfits ofsurveyors are
running a survey from Salmon
City up Salmon river towards
Challis, and last evening had
nearly reached the mouth of Pah-
samaroi. The second gang OF
surveyors are following the first
outfit and cross sectioning and
making final survey. Both
gangs of surveyors are working
for the Pittsburg & Gilmore Ry.
Co., who are now building a road
from Armstead to Salmon City,
and now have 800 men and teams
at work. They have two large
locomotives at Armstead, and
last week 100 cars of steel rails
arrived at Armstead.
Last Friday morning Smiths
outfit consisting of IS mules and
horses, men, wagons and Z wheel
scrapers, passed through Chal-
lis on to Salmon City. They
came via. Ketchum. When ask
ed where they we're going, the
foreman said they we're headed
, for Big Mountain, where they
had grading contract on the
, Pittsburg & Gilmore railroad.
No one appears to know, and
there is being a good deal OF
I. guessing being done what road
: is building the Pittsburg & Gil
more line. But is evidently an
4 opposing road to the Hartman
system, because the Short Line
since the survey is being made
up this river, is now becoming
uneasy and threaten to exteno
the Mackay branch to Salmon
river this fall.
The general opinion, however
is that the new road to Salmon
d, City is really the Burlington, ant
that they are headed up Salmon
river to Challis, and on to Bois
CITY, and thence to Coos bay II
Oregon, for it's terminal coas
point. But some think it is tn
Northwestern. Northern Paciti
IS, or Chicago, Milwaukee & 81
Paul road. But we are told ths
&C. that the employees Of the Pitt:
burg & Gilmore road are bein
~ paid with Burlington checks.
The Boise Statesman says v
= A. McCutcheon of the Pittsbur
& Gilmore company, yesterda
:, filed with the secretary of sta
"A an amendment to its articles
nc incorporation providing for tt
projection of the road to Boi
. to be constructed through Il
- counties of Lemhi, Custer, BOi
and Ada or Lemhi, Custer, Blai
Elmore and Ada counties. Fit

from Timber creek to Armste
where the road will connect wi

as the main line in the amer
ment of the articles of incorp
alton. In addition to what
therefore termed the Bo

branches provided for in
