Our slogan is: If It's worth while
the Northwest Enterprise is Inter-
ested. When 1t comes to big and
better things concerning our peo-

Ella Fitzgerald with her band

Old Timers Still Hopeful
But Marysville is coming into her
own again; at least that is what many
Of the old-timers will tell you, and
somehow, as you listen to their prophe-
sizes concerning the future of Mays
vile, you, too are almost convinced
that Marysville is to experience an
other boom. For there Is an air of
expectancy within this little camp.
Since last spring, the Davies dredge
has been contributing most convinc-
ing payroll to Marysville and sur
rounding mines, such as the Bald
Mountain, the Empire and PenobScOt,
have been giving employment to many
men. The Shannon mine, which once
produced five millions and was aban-
doned when water made working 1t
too difficult, is now, after four months
of dead work and with the help of
modern pump and equipment ready to
produce once more.
Plans are being laid for operating
the Bell Boy within few months and
each day shrill whistle reminds the
residents Of Marysville that work is
resumed in earnest in the Drumlum-
mon mine. even though it is on de-
cidedly smaller scale than in its past
Modern methods, the price of gold,
and modernized equipment are behind
this new mining interest in Marysville
territory; at least this Is the logical
explanation of it, But the old-timers
are won't to disagree with it. It's that
centuries-old lure of gold, say they,
commonly called mining fever" and
once it gets into your blood, it stays
modern mining methods, or no meth
DDS at all. And after all who is quail
fled to disagree with them?

Sixty years ago Van Jackson SAILS
bury of Billings and his three brothers
the eldest 20, the second "A, Van
Jackson % and the youngest 20-came
to Montana from Colorado. Billings
did not exist, the Northern Pacific
railroad had not been constructed into
! Montana, the battle of the Little Big
Horn was only four years in the past,
and great herds of buffalo still roamed
! the prairies Of eastern Montana
/ At old Fort Custer-noW only a
memory-the Salisbury brothers met
/ w. A. Allen, now a 91-year-old pioneer
/ who lives at Billings, but then black
smith at the fort. They told Allen of
/ their intention Of taking up home
stead in the Sun river country. Allen,
! then 81, told them:
well, "a feet of Salsburys ought to
be able to locate homestead in the
Canyon creek country" For years aft
erward they we're known as "24 feet
of Salsburys." The youngest brother
Winfield Scott Salisbury, was only S
feet IL inches tall, but John A. was
feet ii inches, and Van Jackson was
feet, so their total height was more
than "a feet.
The brothers abandoned their plan
to go to the Sun river country and
went to the Canyon creek country
northwest Of Coulson instead.
On Aug. %, 1882, Van Jackson SAILS
bury married Mary Lindberg, who had
come to Coulson as a cook for the
Northern Pacific railroad construction
crews. The Van Jackson SalSburys will
celebrate their 58th wedding anniver-
Sary next summer.
Looking back over 60 years in Mon
tana-yearS which he spent as home
steader, buffalo hunter, peace officer
and amateur criminologiSt, Van Jack
son Salisbury has a few misapprehen-
sions some people have about the early
days.
They are:

who died with their boots on. Salisbury
thinks that it Is an offenSe to six good
citizens who were buried there to be
thus reckoned. He knows of two men
who froze to death, one who fell over
the rtmrocks, two drowned persons and
who are buried at Boothill.

There are many who insist that
luck is the prOspectOr's biggest as
set and in the case of Thomas
Cruise perhaps luck represented his
only asset, for few we're less pre-
pared to deIve into the mysteries
of mining than he when he made
his famous discovery of the Drum
lummOn mine.
But short time from ireland. the
land of his birth, and unable to read
or write, Thomas seemed indeed poorly
equipped to make his way in the world.
Why he decided to find his fortune
in the ground, no one knew and why
he chose to search for it where he did,
remained another mystery.
His greatest possessions consisted OF
an untiring determination and con-
fidence in his ability to strike it rich,
despite his inexperience in the mining
game. A grubstake. he decided, was
his first real need to start him on
his great adventure.
GrubStakes were not too hard to get
in those days as gambling was part

No Longer 'Trish Tommy''

lummon mine, Thomas suddenly found
/ himself occupying an entirely differ
| ent social position than formerly. No
longer was he Irish Tommy" but
Mr.. Cruise" and among those who
had so mercilessly ridiculed him, he
now found some of his most ardent
admirers; for beneath his husky brogue
and rough ways. they discovered a
Shrewd mind and warm heart.
Thomas Cruse's strike was responsible
for the new mining camp that fol-
lowed and he christened it Mays
vile" in honor of the first three
''NaryS" to arrive there.
Like the majority of the early min
ing towns Marysville became popu-
lated almost over night. The magic
cry of gold" was echoed through the
country and was answered by men OF
all trades. Writers abandoned their
ink pots, carpenters exchanged their
rulers and planes for picks and shovels,
and lawyers deserted the courtroom in
their mad rush for Marysville to join
in the search for the precious metal.
And in their walks came the Chinese
those adventurous little yellow men
who have always followed on the trail
Of each gold strike, planting their gar
dens where white men were unable to
do so, and setting up their inevitable
getting them, from miners who had
no time to wash their own shirts.
Thomas Cruise established bank
at Marysville. married and had one
child, a daughter, Mamie During the
time that he operated the Drumlum-
mon, it is estimated to have produced
S144,539 He sold it to an English syn
dictate for $1,600,000, retaining a one
sixth interest In it. He later resided in
Helena, where he maintained beauti-
full home until his death.
Fortunes we're made and lost over
night in Marysville While many re-
tired from their labors, there were
many who continued to hunt through
the years for a golden treasure, always
confident that soon their laborS would
be rewarded. Several have fingered on
and are now quite content to relive, in
their memories, those exciting old days
when each new day promised new
excitement.
Many different characters were rep
resented in this early day MarySville.
Learned men mixed with illiterate for
eigners and the honest with the not
so-honest. Here, at least. all men were
considered equal, and it was an UNI
written law that no man was to con-
slider himself superior to his fellow
workers.
Camp Grew Rapidly
Marysville grew and proSpered until
its inhabitants numbered 5000. Log
cabins soon gave way to frame and
rock buildings. A large school was built
and nine teachers employed. Many
store buildings were erected along with
the ever popular saloons Republican
and democratic papers furnished the
miners with the latest news and four
churches welcomed the population on
Sundays. Marysville was indeed on the
map. With its growth came prosperity
to farmers in the surrounding Valleys,
who found it a likely place TO dispose

of the game and there was usually
someone willing to take a chance on
the price of a sack of flour and a few
pounds OF bacon and beans in the hope
that it would be returned to him in
the shape of a partnership in pay
dirt. However, grubStake after grub
stake with nothing in return for it
was a different matter; and as time
went on, and Thomas failed to make
good, 1t became harder and harder for
him to obtain even small grubstake.
He became the butt of the miners
jokes, but not needing them, he con-
tinued to brag about the fortune he
would make. He was destined to become
just another proSpector sinking his
hopes in the ground-or so others
thought-everyone that is, but Thorn
as. If at any time his hopes lesSened,
he certainly showed no evidence of 1t.
He was finally forced to believe,
though, that no more grubstakeS we're
to be forthcoming and had almost
decided that he would have to secure
a job in order to pay for his bacon
and beans, when a woman--perhaps
out of pity for him, or perhaps be-
cause she still had little faith in
him-gave him his last grubStake.
Thomas no longer needed to ask for
favors now, for he had at last come
