Discoveries Made. —The facts now
known warrant the statement that
many and rich discoveries have been
made by the hardy prospector since
tatt June. These discoveries include
placer diggings as well as quartz
ledges, and they are of importance suffi
cient to place Boise county on a firm and
fatting foundation and insure a bright
and prosperous future. The most val
r . in
uable mines found so far are probably
, . ,. f
the quartz and placer diggings of
„ H
Canyon and Fall creeks, a few miles
* . , .
from Placemlle; and the pros *^®
now obtamed from there prove
to contain inestimable wealth, some.
. i, » I
of which the owners will soon show
. . rl .
up. There are also dozens of ledges
, , , . I
scattered about through the county
discovered and now undergoing de- 1
velopinent by single individuals, all of
which yield splendid prospects and
will surely make the discoverersh
wealthy. And many spots of rich \
placer ground have been struck iu dit
feront places that will be worked to
big advantage next season. All in all,
affairs in the Basin have assumed a |
brighter aspect than the most hopeful
could desire, and many who several
* I I
weeks ago were gloomy with despond
,.i .,.„t
uow look cheerful and appear quite
resigned to take things as they come
Many ineu, at the close of placer
were so dis
abling the past season, — - —
hearteued at the Minall returns }ic c
that they scattered out through the
Basin seeking labor by the day to ob
tain means with which to leave the|
country before winter set in. Since
tbe recent discoveries and rich devel
opmeots made the past few weeks
these despondent parties have changed
their minds and are now resolved to|
•tay and sec it out. Quite a numlicr
of those very men started out pros
pecting at the time, and arc now the
owners of valuable ledges and placer
ground, and instead of giving up the
fight have made a new and permanent
stand. VYodomd know of a single
Individual who. now contemplates Icav
fog the Basin with ike idea of better
ing his condition in other fields of la
bor. This fact is only mentioned to
show tlie difference in the state
feeling now existing and as it existe«
early In the season.
Printers in Luck —The Avalanche
•ays that the typos of that office, in
eluding Bert Jones, formerly of the
World, the oilier day discovered a
rich gold-bearing quartz ledge, near
Boonville, whioh appeared to be an
extension of the valuable one recently
found by J. C. Hill. The boys took up
fifteen hundred feet, and were having
some of the rock assayed. They call
their ledge the "Tiger," which we
think is a bad omen,, as that critter is
known to make printers "short-
stringed" and out of "sorts" every
lime they fall against it. Name it the
"Fat Take," prints, or something else
Suggestive of the art preservative.
-1--. * .------
The Statesman says that the fair and
races under the auspices of the Agri
culturalJPark Association were a com-
plete success in every respect. Con-
sidering the shortness of the lime ii
which they were making preparations
this fact speaks well for the associa-
tion. It is now a permanent institu-
tion, and the fairs and races will here-
after be an important event in Terri-
torial affairs.
TnE Avalanche wishes to know
whether the Wont & is dead, as that of*
fice had not received a copy for two
weeks. Well, no, it isn't dead, old
man; and had you seen the manner in
which a portion of it skimmed the hills
^he other day, you would have thought
it very live. The World w nbioi ,! ir
the express office twice < -'h v. • < *k
reefed t*» the Avohimhc. D-mi kum*
„ iiv v«ui have not received it.
Death of Felix M. Harris. —Mr
Felix Harris, an old and respected ci ;
izen of* this county, died at his place
of residence, at the toll-house, on Sha
fgj- creek, at twelve o'clock, noon, o
last Wednesday. He had been suffer
ing for several months with a coinpli
cation of diseases, the principal one o
which was something like cancer of
the stomach. His death was not un
expected, as he had been lingering
very low for sometime. Mr. Harris
was the proprietor of what is known
as the Harris Toll-road* He leaves a
wife and daughter to mourn his de
cease.
