and former owner of the Custer mine,
also owner of the Goldstone at one
time and pioneer of the Salmon riv-
er country, died at noon today from
mushroom poison. He was civil
war veteran and one of the few re-
naming soldiers who fought through
the decisive battle of the great inter-

triotic service extending over the en-
tire period of the war. Mr.. johnson
was born in Norway in 1912 and was
brought to the United States when 7
years of age. He was one of the earl
lest of the Idaho pioneers. He leaves
one son, Adreon johnson, and two
daughters, Mrs. Lillian M. Wilder of
Washington, and Mrs. Lulu Fowler,
wife of Harry Fowler of Salmon.
Besides his children who were with
him Mrs. Temple was his constant and
faithful nurse, besides having atten-
ton from other neighbors, including
B. X. Dillon, and the best medical
skill in the city
The funeral will be held Saturday
afternoon with military honors for the
old veteran in his final rest.

LEESBURC PLACERS
EMPLOY. THIRTY men
KIRKPATRICK REPORTS REvIv.
Al AT OLD MINING CAMP,
WITH MUCH ACTIVITY THERE.

Placer mining in the Leesburg dis
trict Is more active than for years,
there being employed in number of
prospects there AT this time at least
80 men. These workings include the
old Richardson placers owned by w.
ii. Shoup, Golf Brothers, {. A. Dey-
Ian of Napias creek placers, Busch d
Stucky, III. b. Jones. Two quartz
mines in the same district, those of
the Gold Dust, managed by kirkpat-
rick interests and the Pope mine
above the old diggings, are about To
get. under headway, SO that the dis
trict viii assume something of its old
time Importance again.
This condition, in the opinion Of O.
r. kirkpatrick, one of she leaders in
the present activities, is the natural
result of gold coming into its own
again with the readjustments now
taking place. Mr.. kirkpatrick looks
for gold mining TO be really profitable
henceforth. The healthy growth of
this industry was indicated the other
day when Ferriil Terry sent over the
mountain from Salmon an eight-horse
load of mail and supplies for the diff
ferent camps his service supplies on
the Salmon-Forney route. Mr.. Kirk
patrick reports good work at road inn
provement made from the summit to-
ward Leesburg under the direction of
Mont Colwell.

HIGH WATER RECORDS
IN THE SALMON RIVER

The Salmon river and all the creeks
and small streams in the Salmon
country began to fall with the cooler
temperatures that were marked on
Wednesday morning. Only once be-
fore since the advent of white men in
these parts was the river known to be
anything like as high as in its flood
waters in June, 1921. That was in
the time of the old bridge at Salmon
which was carried away. Just how
high the water rose then is not known
by any record now available for COM
parison, but old-timors persist in say
ing it was higher. As matter of
fact it might have been lower If meas
ured by the altitude of the old bridge
which was set three or four feet
closer to the water than the present
bridge. The elder Tingicy family at
that day lived in the little dwelling
house that still stands on Island park
and they were forced to get out after
the water had invaded their home.
The island was submerged at the
June food this year at least two feet
all over on an average, in places at
least three feet, while it never got
quite to the floor of the old disused
dwelling house which still stands on
the island. The r. b. Randolph fam
lily were compelled to leave their home
above the city to find refuge in the
Melvyn ranch home on the other side
of the river.

ASSESSMENT WORK
ON MINES MUST BE
DONE By JULY FIRST

Owners of mining claims who have
been nursing the hope that congress
would finally pass a resolution sus-
pending assessment work for the year
1920 and possibly for 1921, will find
it to their advantage to abandon that
hope now and proceed to the perform
ance of their annual labor. That
there will be no further suspension
authorized by congress is clearly in
dicated by the following dispatch re-
ceived this week by the Miner from
Congressman Addison I. Smith:
No Suspension.
There is no probability of law
being passed suspending assessment
work on mining claims, which must
be performed by July / in order to
protect the rights of entrymen."
Further Delay is Dangerous.
Congressman Smith has given close
attention to assessment work ques-
tions. In all previous years when there
was necessity for its suspension he
has rendered valuable assistance in
securing the relief. When he says
now that there is no probability that "A
suspension act will be passed, his
statement may be accepted as final,
and claim owners who have not per-
formed their work for the last year
should proceed to represent their
claims without further delay. Late
last year congress passed resolution
extending the time six months for do
ing assessment work for 1920, making
the final date July /, 1921. The ex-
tended period is nearing the end and
claim owners should accept the sit
uation and proceed with their work.
They should also include in their
plans the work for 1921, for there is
not the remotest chance that congress
will even consider exempting claims
from assessment work this year.

DOING GOOD WORK
ON EAST SIDE ROAD
FLOOD DAMAGES TO ROADS
ARE OF LITTLE IMPORTANCE,
SAY COMMISSIONERS.

Fred Kreger. who is looking after
toad work for both Commissioners
Snyder and Summers, has just COM
pleted the improvement of the east
side Lemhi valley road from the
Lemhi bridge to the w. c. Fox ranch.
A scraper for this job was pulled
by the tractor of Murray Crook, the
two county tractors being disabled.
This piece of work was badly needed.
The Kinney creek bridge at the
Seventeen Mile ranch went out last
week. This brought home to Com
missioner Snyder the destructiveness
of the flood, for there is where the
commissioner lives and when he ar
rived home on the day the bridge
went out he had to park his car on
the farther side and jump the raging
stream the best he could.
Mr.. Snyder and Road Supervisor
kreger had their hands full in TAX
ing care of the culverts on the public
road near the high railroad bridge on
the Mahaffey ranch. The culverts
would not carry the great flow and
were washed out of place. The road
is all right, however, at that place.
Commissioner Summers also had all
he could look aItef In the threatened
destruction of bridges and roads in
his bailiwick but nothing more serious
than the dropping of the slough
bridge near Carmen bridge, which
Bert Macnab, Wallace Slavin and
Hans Wachli repaired, actually occur
red
Commissioner Briney was looking
after his own troubles in the same
line along the Pahsimaroi and Salmon
rivers, having one bridge carried out
near Patterson.
At one point on the new Salmon
river highway, near the Schulz ranch,
the road was washed out completely
for a short length, but was soon re-
paired again and made passable.
The Salmon river has now subsid-
ed to the level of Island park, still
falling this morning. At one period
of its food stage the waters sub
merged the island to depth of more
than two feet. The damage as shown
since the food has passed is only
slight and the beautiful resort will
soon be itself again.

FOREIGN HEIRS OF
PETERSON ESTATE

Louis b. Holmes, said to be a neph-
ew of the late William Peterson, was
in Salmon over Sunday on his way
from Chicago to Seattle. His father
was brother of the Salmon Peter
son and like this Peterson changed
his name from the rather uneuphonius
patronymic of Funch, which was the
family name in Denmark. Mr.. Holmes
has another uncle living in extreme
age in Oklahoma. While in Salmon
Mr.. Holmes took the opportunity of
visiting the grave Of his uncle and
found many things TO interest him
in the recollections of old friends and
neighbors of his uncle, being particu-
larly anxious to read over the many
developments of the court proceedings
taken in the settlement of the estate
and the discovery of the heirs at law
as shown by the records at the court
house and by publications in The Re-
corder. Mr.. Holmes Is an attorney
at-Iaw. He said the matter of the f.
nal settlement of the estate and its
passing TO Mr.. Peterson's relatives
would necessarily take a long time
in their extreme age and residence
as TO the most of them in foreign
lands. G. II. Monk has charge a. adj
ministrator.
Every year since the death Of Mr..
Peterson, which occurred in Novem-
ber. 1918. the regular Salmon chau-
tauquas have been held in his beau
tifui grounds as had been the case for
a number of years before his demise,
and this entert ainn1ent serves as d
memorial for the old pioneer. Doubt
less ii alive he would give approval.
