property.
There is considerable discussion
pro and con regarding the transfer
of the Eureka Live Stock Company
to three trustees, of which the Re
ceiver of the Eureka County bank
is one.
AS stated by attorney C. B. Hend-
erson in Court the Eureka Live
Stock Company would likely be
thrown into bankruptcy if this
proposition was not accepted. From
all the information the Sentinel can
gather on the subject the action
taken appears to be the most favor
able one possible for the benefit of
depositors in the Eureka County
Bank as regardless of the cost of
litigation in ase of bankruptcy
proceedings, etc, no action could
be taken in the attachment in less
than four months, whereas under
the conditions of the trust the three
trustees a absolutely sell the en-
tire property in whole or in part
for the best interests of the credit
ors with no delay whatever, and
any proceeds over and above the in
debtedness of the Eureka Live
Stock Company, approximating
$3.50, 900, will revert to the deposit

JARBlDGE IS POOR
PLACE FOR LABORER
The new mining camp at Jarbidge
Is no place for a laboring man to
find work. D. A. Bourne, known
as the original discovcrer of his
North Star claim, said to be rich in
gold, has given an interview where
in he declared in substance the
above. He had just arrived in
Boise from he new camp, accom-
panied by George Fisher. They are
both anxious to do everything in
their power to keep the laboring
men and others looking for work
away from the camp because they
are confident this class of people
will be greatly disappointed, and
also owing to the fact that they
know there is no work to be had
for the boards of mcn who are
stampcding into the district.
Their warning is to stay away from
the camp until July next at least.
1T might just as well be made
absolutely plain hat there is no
room for the laboring man i'm the
new district, for the work is not
there" declared Mr.. Bourne. "In
justice to them they should be
warned not to go into Jarbidgc.
To the mar who has money so that
he does not have to look for work
or who wants to invest, | would say
that they + perfectly, safe in go
ing to Jarbidgc for there is every
opportunity for them to make
money. | know that the camp is
going to be a big one and that the
rich n is there, but Just at the
present time there is morem men on
hand to take care of the work than
there is work to do. 1t naturally
follows that many at Jarbidge are
without work and are cndcavoring
to leave the district. OF course
believe that il will be impossible to
stop the rush and to prevent these
men from going to Jarbidge, but
they can be warned just the same.
After July and when the mines
get to working, mills are in opera
tion and machinery is installed,
there will be propably be plenty of
work for everyone. The present
high price Of living makes il almost
impossible for these men to keep
going and without work and some
thing coming in they soon are
forced to leave with nothing to show
for their trip to Jarhidgc.
"Jarbidge is a wide open mining
town at the present time. Saloons
are open day and night. gambling
and music halls etc. would say
there are 1900 people in the new
town and the main street is several
blocks long. Most of the men are
idle, but still more are coming in
daily. There are a great many
scattered over the district so that
it would be hard TO estimate its
entire population.
1--WE believe we have just what
we said in the first place, a rich
mine, but at the present time il is
not developed enough to warrant
the employment Of a large number
of men. although this will probably
follow"
