Arrivals from Dime creek report that q labor strike occurring during tic winter resulted in q serious curtail- ment of mining operations during a major portion of the closed season. The laborlng men. of whom there were about fifty in the camp, in sisted on receiving a wage or six dol lars per day and board. The denian1 resulted in most of the outfits either greatly curtailing their operations or suspendng altogether, as the opera tors contcnded that they could not work the low grade ground which forms the principal producing source of the camp with an increa sed wage added to tho high cost of supplies. Owing to the labor situation. few ol
 the operators have cleaned up their l several instances rigged scrappers to get the dirt in the boxes and in SC |
 method of handling the dirt extract ed during the winter at much lower cost than the usual shoveling-in pro- cess. One of the arrivals says i. is doubtful if any of the larger operators again employ the old hand meth Jd o
 getting the dumps cleaned up. A small amount of prospecting WIS | done during the winter and resulted in the discovery of body of low
 grade gravel at Il point on the c-eei
 some distance below the former knowi
 gold bearing area. Little work Wa:
 done on it because of the high costs ot
 operation.
