 Reports to the effect that the Premier company is planning to construct a railroad from the mine to tidewater are ap- parently either very premature or based upon nothing more tangibn than the evanescent rumors so prevalent in the tNQTth, acially during the winter B period. IL is stated by those o are in close touch with tF5 mine officials that so Ear as known here there is no present likelihood of such an eNeataality. The advisibility of building a railroad to transport the ore from the mine was thoroughly discussed prior to l the installation of the present tramway system and it is said that there is little prospect of q change in the method of ore conveyance, at least for some ltime to come.
 Canards of this character are to be deplored for the reason that they often create difficult ties for those in charge and al- so for the more important reas- on that when the alleged dew elopment or contemplation ] fails to eventuate in accord with the rumors, it results m positive harm to the camp and district, especially when broad casted through the medium or lthe press.
