ami strange appearance of these old beds,

sults, as was the case last week with the
two Forest Creek ladies who were driv-
mg to Jacksonville when their horse be
came frightened at a rubbish heap and
ran away throwing them out and hurting
them quite severely.
Public safely as
well as public gixxl requires that the
roads should not lx- made into a dump
ing ground for garbage and ¡xrrsons
guilty of such an offense should lx.- looked
after by the authorities ami made to dis

f<>r the streets of Jacksonville are well
littered with a general assortment of
store sweepings and house and yard
garbage.
The diamond tlrill used by Mr. Clark
in developing the Blue ¡.edge copper
claims was shipped Thursday to Spo
kane. The drill crew left the same day
for Spokane, which is their headquarters
but where they work next they do not
know. It is given out as positive that
Patrick Clark has given up the Apple
gate cop|>ef district, but that fact has
not discouraged the claim holders nor
Dr. Reddy, who went to Crescent City to
confer with the owners of the Blue
Ia*dge. It is reported on good authority
that an English syndicate is likely to
take up the Blue Ledge. The Company's
experts were at Applegate to examine
the projx-rty. There is also a report
that the Sweeney Brothers, Spokane
mining tnen, who are rated up in the
millions and beyond the wealth of Mr.
Chirk, arc planning to get hold of the
copper proposition.
One of the Mr.
Sweeneys has been at Applegate recently
and they have bonded several claims
and have a crew of men at work run
ning in a tunnel. The Applegate cop
per district is too rich to lie undevelop
ed very long.
Nickell, the grafter, has added bull
dozing to his tactics and now persons
who do not see fit to give him their
business can count on getting a tongue
lashing, provided they don’t suppress
him, which is not a hard thing to do,
for barking dogs never bite.
Nickell’s
method of getting business and getting
news is as rank and impudent as a Kan
sas lightning rod pedillcr and he makes
himself a positive disgrace to the pro
fession. His gall and bulldozing so dis
gusts people that it gives them a feeling
