COLDORE

DISTRICT
Sam Wilson and Son Make Big
Strike After Fourteen
Years.

The Sundays Boise Statesman con-
tains the interesting story of persever-
ance rewarded by rick strike just
made on Profile creek by Sam Wilson
and son, after IA years of working and
waiting:
Word has reached Boise of another
rich strike by one Of the persistent
prospectors at Profile.
Many years ago Sam Wilson, better
known as Profile Sam, located a group
of claims at Profile gap. At that time
he had son, a mere child, and Pro
file gap has given way to Profile, and
the baby, Earl Wilson, now grown to
manhood, is postmaster. For the past
IA years these two have been digging
a tunnel on the Dundee group OF
claims. Day in and day out, year
after year, some of the time in rock
that was so hard that they had to
sharpen the drill every 10 minutes,
they have stuck to this tunnel, never
daunted by the deep SHOWS of win
ter. until the other day they "struck
the vein" that shows nearly five feet
of rich ore, some parts OF when are
specxed with native gold which can
be seen with the naked eye; and 1t all
runs high in silver.
Owing to the county division actlV-
tiles of the legislature the Prohle dls-
trict, formerly in Idaho county, IS now
in Valley county. The formation OF
the new county is expected to be OF
advantage to the Profile mines, Tor
formerly a trip to the county seat
Grangeville consumed more time
than a trip from Boise TO Chicago
and cost nearly as much.

WOULD PAVE MAIN STREET
WITH BITULITHIC SURFACING

come when Grangeville should make
forward move for better street condi-
tions, when the general comment of
travellers coming into our little city
is: The country roads are in fairly
good condition, but your streets, Oh
my, they are a terror Tor auto travel"
Furthermore the citizens all know that
this statement is only too true. Towns
of less Importance throughout the Pa
louise country and other sections have
paved streets and are making a move
to do paving, and we should not allow
ourselves to run along in the old rut
any longer. Whether it should be de-
cided to do business with the Warren
Construction company or some other
company, we feel that Mr.. Woodward's
visit to our community will have
wholesome effect and arouse our civic
pride sufficiently TO bring the neces-
Sary action.

w. NJ. Woodward, representative of
the Warren Construction company of
Portland. has been in the city for
several days interviewing the city
council and Main street property own
ers on the important subject of street
paving. The company Mr.. Woodward
represents puts in Bitulithic paving,
said to be one of the most satisfactory
and lasting pavements now in use
The company put in 175 miles of pave
ment in Portland, and has done the
paving for Lewiston, Weiser, Caldwell,
Nampa, Boise, Pocatello, Twin Falls,
Blackfoot, Idaho Falls, Coeur dAlene,
Wallace and other cities and towns
well known to our citizens. While
Mr.. Woodward has not yet seen all
of the property owners, those with
whom he consulted have expressed
themselves favorable TO paving.
