One of the largss mining deals that
has been in process of contamination
in this section for many years is now
under consideration and it il expected
that it will be pulled through in the
next few days. 1t is that of the Pres
lev Jones placer, mineral survey No.
299, generally known as the Becker
placer. 1t begins near the Black
Swan tunnel on Chicago creek and
runs on both sides Of the stream down
to Clear creek, then follows the me-
anderings of this stream to point
near the Castle hotel. Negotiations are
being conducted by Fred Norman, and
he expects his parties here during the
coming week. The consideration for
the placer will be coos one hundred
thousand dollars When the deal is
closed there will be something tan
gible doing in placer mining and the
operations will be on . large scale.
The old working where jackson
panned the gold over fifty years ago
and where since that time 80 much Of
the rich yellow metal has been washed
out, will again respond to the music of
old fashioned wheel and sluice box aug
mented by the latest placer mining
equipments. There is no such thing as
keeping down the Idaho Springs min
ing district and the croakers must get
out of the way or the wheels of pro-
cress will run ovar them We are
going to have pushers and not blockers.

Looks Awful Good to Us

The mining conditions in this district
are improving all the time. There is
no use Of trying to deny this fact.
Theremay be some who, as individuals,
have not felt the reviving effects and
who consequently think differently
This is always the case with some in
dividuals however prosperous a com
munity may be. In mentioning improved
conditions the entire situation is taken
into consideration and the results de-
duced therefrom. This entire mining
district is feeling the growing mining
situation. Good miners who want work
can get it. A very pr rominent mining
man stated this week that he was hav-
ing difficulty in getting good men for
some Of his properties and in fact on
one at least he was unable to get the
desired help. 1t shows that the camp
is having good, healthy and substan-
tial development. This is not confined
to large properties only but there are
many small properties employing from
one to five and six men that have start
ed work during the past few weeks
while others are contemplating doing
the same. In addition to this there are
frequent Inquiries from eastern people
for properties, large and small. There
is NO. use Of talking "hard times" We
are entering upon an era of good times
and everyone should talk loud and long
for our city and its industries.

University of Iowa and from the Uni

tanning practical experience in the
technical branches pertaining to min
ing that they have been studying
through books and lectures in these
institutions. 1t 10 . compliment to

siated by showing these young men

The leaving of the freight cars on
the track in front OF where the pas
senger cars stop is a nuisance to
travellers and also to our local people.
Yet it is invariably done and thus shuts
off the view of that portion OF the
city and also makes it decidedly in
convenient for people getting off and
on the cars. 1t would look as if it were
just a. easy for these freight cars to
be showed down a few feet. The fact
is that if the railroad would turn the
freight track into passenger track
and vice versa, it would be a decided
accommodation. It need not thus
interfere with loading and unloading
of local freight as the car carrying this
local freight could be temporarily
tracked as it 10 now. Something
ought to be done to better these
conveniences or rather lack of con-
veniences.

1t looks natural to see Doe M. w.
Tanner and Andrew Anderson on the
streets again as in the years gone by they
were actively engaged in mining and
are now resuming operations In this
camp. Thus do those who have op
Grated in other mining sections return
to this as = staple, reliable and sue
cessful camp. They have made fine
and large strike in the Victor mine at
the head of Virginia Canyon. The
mine end of the management is looked
after by the Andy while Doe has TAX
en- charge of the reliable old Bonieta
mill in which the ore will be treated.
He will give it general overhauling
and as he is thoroughly experienced in
this work it will be success. The mill
has been taken over by the Giipin
American Mining Company Of Denver.

Interesting Cases
In Supreme Court


Raleigh, Sept. 13.-The Supreme
court deyotes this week to appeals
from the third district, of which
there are lc. two OF these being state
cases, and OF general interest, both
coming from New Bern. In one case
a member OF the board OF city COM
missioners was indicted. charged with
being a stakeholder IN a company
with which the commissioners made
a contract for supplies on behalf of
the city. In the other case the city
commissioner was indicted as being
an employe OF the company with
which the contract was made. The
attorney general takes the view that
the man who was a stakeholder OF
the company violated in spirit the
statate which forbids officials from
making contracts with firms In which
they are interested. In the case OF
the employe the attorney general
takes the view that his being merely
an employe did not make him inter-
ested to such an extent as TO be In
violation OF the statute.
