To the Ei.t rot: oetiie T imes : 1 s< e an item in each ot your two last is sues concerning the order given me by the Portland Mining Co. In your first, the words «lump and other* should not have been used. Let us have it just as it is: Mr. Thompson, a tew days before he started for Portland, came to me and proposed buying my mining property. I told him ho could have it for $3,500. He said he could not give any such price. Mr. Thompson then left word with Mr. Ennis to give me $1,800, and when he heard that I would not accept bis offer, then was his strategem brought in to play, and he forbade me running tailings on his ground. Mr. Thompson saw that he had slopped over, and here was his loop hole—that I was running a tin me out on his ground. He saw me putting down this flume long before; why did he not say some thing about it then? Rather thin. T. II.
