The proposed bonus of ton
dollars per ounce on gold is ev- j
idently waking up some of our
old time prospectors in this vi
cinity. judging by the many
prospectors outfits which have
been supplied by local merchants
this w’eek.
The principal consignment of
freight is being put up for a
party of four, who leave early
next week for the Bremner Riv
er country. This section has
long been considered attractive j
to the prospector, many have |
gone there for just one season
and been able to come out in the j
Pall with a good poke the re
sult of ‘’sniping’’ without going
to the expense of machinery.
It takes grit and dollars to
make this trips and tho these |
may not have all the dollars •
they need, but they have an
abundance of grit to make the
trip a success ana it is to be
hoped they strike a fortune.
