capitalists who are on the lookout for
profitable investments. We do not know

fore meet with a generous encourage
ment.

Mr. Everett, a mining man from Moke-
lumne Hill, was in Jackson Monday,
looking up the records in regard to the
title of the Dewitt mine in Murphy's
gulch The parties he represents own
controlling interest in this mining
claim, aud would probably do some
prospecting if the question of title were
straightened out. Some time ago they
took steps to straighten out the matter
by applying to have the property sold by
the state on account of delinquent taxes.
At the last moment, however, the Odd
Fellows lodge of Jackson, which holds a
mortgage covering the ranch property
and the mine, stepped in and redeemed
the property, which leaves the tangle as
regards the mining claim as far from a
solution rs ever. Naturally, the capi-
talsts interested are wary about invest
ing in the exploration of the mines so
long as any question concerning the
ownership remains unsettled.
