Men have alward the mines, and a large force are now at work, and promise to have it completed next week. From Belknap a xoad 1s promised in ten, days, with regular stages, carrying passengers, fast freight, mail aiid express. Town lots in Belknap range from $500 to $10,000, and an immense boom is being experienced. The Northern Pacific is interested in the Belknap townsite, and is helping . boom the place. There is some doubt as to whether the mines are not within the land grant of the Northern Pacific in which case the railroad will have the naming of the principal town-sites in the gold. region. Every industry will soon be represented in the mining district. One Yealoon firm is-sending in 30 tons of goods, with which to stock a wholesale liquor house, Sixty mules were in town last night, and‘started with these goods, They will go by the way of Rath@rum,Coar d’ Alene and tie Mission, part of the way by ‘sleighs and the rest by pack mules: Drug stores, lodging houses, restautants aud_all other kinds of business imaginable, will be ¢stablished _inside of two weeks, and all backed by heavy capital. It is all folly to talk of waiting six weeks before going to the mines to start any business. The fact.is it is already too late to get in first with anything. * * * Regarding the mines, I have formed no opinion as yet, though” accounts are calculated to make one ‘s head dizzy.” Law dete sees Meath of D.

By this plan the laearth danza is saved, the only things secessary to do’ in this case being to lay the device in the ditch and drive afew pegs through the lower end when damming the stream ; and for taking"up the dam all that is required is to take the bar in one’ hand and pull pp the pegs by the sheet. -MeoCormsick’s Mine.

Spokane fits ean be purchased here at a very money to back them, the . engineers will soon push the road, into the mines, This town, by the way, is the most energetic, “enterprisin ; and promising thatI have yet seen on ‘the Pacific Coast. Rathdrum is try-: ing to geb upa boom, and a» largey sum of mongy has been subscribed to build a wagon road. Men have alward the mines, and a large force are now at work, and promise to have it completed next week. From Belknap a xoad 1s promised in ten, days, with regular stages, carrying passengers, fast freight, mail aiid express. Town lots in Belknap range from $500 to $10,000, and an immense boom is being experienced. The Northern Pacific is interested in the Belknap townsite, and is helping . boom the place. There is some doubt as to whether the mines are not within the land grant of the Northern Pacific in which case the railroad will have the naming of the principal town-sites in the gold. region. Every industry will soon be represented in the mining district. One Yealoon firm is-sending in 30 tons of goods, with which to stock a wholesale liquor house, Sixty mules were in town last night, and‘started with these goods, They will go by the way of Rath@rum,Coar d’ Alene and tie Mission, part of the way by ‘sleighs and the rest by pack mules: Drug stores, lodging houses, restautants aud_all other kinds of business imaginable, will be ¢stablished _inside of two weeks, and all backed by heavy capital. It is all folly to talk of waiting six weeks before going to the mines to start any business. The fact.is it is already too late to get in first with anything. * * * Regarding the mines, I have formed no opinion as yet, though” accounts are calculated to make one ‘s head dizzy.” Law dete sees Meath of D.

Stover. * & Useful Device. — “A Minnesota man has pabeaited a dam for use in irrigating ditches: One end of.atsheet of canvas, leather or other suitable material 19 attached toa bar of. wood, which is: longer than the width of the canvas, This bar reaches across the ditch, the ends resting upon’ the banke, while the canyas lies in the ditch, with its free end extended up stream and secured by pegs driven through holes in it into-the ground, The water pressing against the upper side of the sheet bulges the middle portion downward and presses the margins against the bottom and sides of the ditch, so that the sheet effectually dams the ditch in a most simpl: and ready.manner. By this plan the laearth danza is saved, the only things secessary to do’ in this case being to lay the device in the ditch and drive afew pegs through the lower end when damming the stream ; and for taking"up the dam all that is required is to take the bar in one’ hand and pull pp the pegs by the sheet. -MeoCormsick’s Mine. H.

He has had three crushings made at Martin & Michell’s mill,-the first paying $18, the second $21 and the third $34. The pumping and hoisting have been done by David.
