A resolution was also read which

Anthony for a term of one year at
the rate of $10 per month rental.
Roth resolutions were laid on the
table until the next regular meeting,
Jan. 5th, when they will bo brought
up and voted on. Xo business was
transacted during ie meeting of the
council.
Much Interest Is lelug manifest in
the prospect of a deal with Mr.
Anthony, as It Is realized that a big
saving for the town will bo made.
The Sngehen mines, located 15
miles east of Lakevlew, which have
caused several excitements upon the
report that gold had been discovered
there In endless quantities, then
again prove to be worthless, are
again to know their fate.
Captain J. Sub Johnson, K. M.f
Metallurgist and assayerof Vlsalla,
Cal., representing some California
millionaire mining men, arrived here
Saturday to investigate the Sagehen
mines. Messrs. Hughes and Welsner
last summer located eight claims In
that vicinity and took some ppecS
mens which looked good to the big
mining men, and the assay that
they made went about 7.85 in gold
and sliver. They at once bonded
the claims and sent their expert to
view the ground and make a report.
Mr- Johnson assayed one piece of
rock before he went to the mlnss
that he found in town which did not
give a trace of gold.
Mr. Johnson went over Monday
aud will make a thorough examina
tion of that section and may go to
Paisley to examine the mines there
before he returns home. Should his
report substantiate that of Hughes
and Welsner, the company will put
up a large smelter on Iep Creek,
liven should the rock only go as .
high ns $3.50 the company would
feci Justified in putting in the smelter.
At this writing Mr. Johnson had
not returned from Sagehen, but lie
was expected last night. His report
will be awaited with much anxiety
by the people of this county, as the
discovery of gold so near Lakevlew
means much toward the develop
ment of the county.
Latek Capt. Johnson returned
yesterday, having gone over the
entire field and secured forty sam
ples of rock from the surface and
many prospect holes, averaging in
depth from a few feet to 35 feet. He
says that should the mines prove us
represented to him, theie Is a claim
there for every man in Lakeview,
nud that there Is no choise. He will
assay the rock when he returns
home.
