TALK OF A DITCH FROM BONANZA
There is some talk of a ditch being
put in next season from Bonanza to
Flat, and from the way ground along
the proposed route is being gobbled up
it would seem there are good grounds
for the rumor.
We are credibly informed that much
of the ground—the Happy association,
for instance—is chietly valuable on ac
count of its location with regard to
the proposed ditch. Tom Aitken now
controls this claim, and he also has
secured a four-y«ar lease on the claim
above—the Summit association.
The Contact association, Happy creek,
was purchased by Aitken recently.
A. Alma disposed of his interest for
$1,500. At the same time Aitken pro
cured the Interest of Thomas Berry for
$1,125; of John Hakulin for $1,000; of
Axel Johnson for $1,500, and of Jacob
j Wilson tor $1,500.

cent, was charged, which is 7 to 3
against bis election. Por Roose
velt the premium charge was 20
