CAME IN FROM NEWSOME.
Charles and Coon Smith Walked in tt
Grangeville This Week.

Charles and Coon Smith arrived in
Grangevillt Tuesday, coming in over,
land from Newsome, and both seem to
be unanimous in their ideas of the
strenuousness of a journey by foot al
this TINT of the year The Smith
brothers never let little obstacles stand
in their way however and they pillow
through. They carried out nice sum
in good yellow bullion, the balance OF
last month s cleanup. During January
and up to the present time inclement
weather has caused difficulties that
made work out at their properties very
difficult
They left Fred Smith in charge at
the mill and the accumulations pile W
day by day on the plates. With the
coming of better weather conditions
the work will go ahead rapidly and
during the summer an immense amount
of ore will be put through the mill and
then a large amount of money will be
put in circulation. No one is more
deserving of big returns than Smith
Brothers who have done as much, if not
more than any other individual OF
group of individuals to develop and
promote the mining industry in Idaho
county. May their good fortunes grow
from day to day.
