HORSEFLY CREEK
TO BE PRODUCER
Horsefly creek continues to oc- j
oupy a great deal of attention, aud
in spite of conflicting rumors, which!
;nav or may not be purposely cir
culated, the fact remains that there
is much trayel between the new J
diggings and this city and adjoining
communities. During the past week
i.everal well known miners returned I
: rom the new camp, but so far as |
Lhis newspaper Is informed, tliero |
is nothing new to report. That
'•hero are excellent prospects is
stablished by plentiful evdence, but
: o far uono of the miners inter
lewed will state that there is gold I
.a paying quantities iu sight. The j
: tatement has been Quite generally i
■ irculated that Alike McDennott haii
developed a paystreak that runs :
7 cents tp the pan. Likewise a j
. umor is current that Frank Daw- 1
son aud Lars Osness bavo pay dirt.
Weither of these rumors can bo
confirmed, although many who
claim to know admit that tlisse
men "have good prospects." Re
liable information also is at hand
that there have been single pans
that showed from 3 to 7 'cents in
gold. These values, according' to
The Pioneer's Informants, were not
sustained.
There have bean rumors in cir
culation uleo of pending deals, but
the figures mentioned would not
seem to indicate that "pay" had
beeo struck in the ground in ne
gotiation, but rathea- that someone
was willing to expend money on a
ihance that pay might develop. At
foiy rate, no one has yet come for
ward who is willing to assume re
sponsibility for the statement that
pay dirt has been found on Horse
fly or its tributaxlea
Good reports continue to come
from the district, however, and
scarcel* a day passes that there
. is not cortaln information in circu
j lation of an encouraging nature.
: These, taken in connection with the
I iact that prospecting continues,
' and that person# having ground
there appear to bo undertaking
real work, lends strength to the '
boliel that more has developed than
is admitted.
Many w 11-lnformed persons are
strongly of tho belief that the ereok
will pi ove a producer, and confi
dently r.waits developments.—Idita

MERELY PITY.
The practical .weakness of the
vast mass of modem pity for the
poor and the oppressed is precisely
that it is merely pity. The pity is piti
ful, but not respectful. Men feel
that llie cruelty to the poor is a kind
of cruelty to animals. They never
feel that it is injustice to equals.
N;jy, it is treachery to comrades.
