The Claim Owners Form,a Go- Operative Association And Will Dig a Long From Pine. > Ditch A large and, representative meeting of the miners on Willow'Creek Was held last Sunday, for the purpose of considering the vexed water question, in no adequate\" supply being at present at the disposal of the miners, and Mr. Thos. Balenian was unanimously ^-appointed chair-' man, aiid at once Opened the meet-, ing.by stating the objects; for Which they were gathered. _, ^ Mr. Bateman presented a permit from Mr. Graham, authorizing the miners on Willow Creek to cut a ditch to Pine Creek for the purpose' of diverting sufficient ; water for the successful working 'of their properties. Mr. Bateman voiced the sen-- timent of the miners as to'tlie present condition and delay in working the claims,' the absolute uncertainty of getting a sufficient flow of water, from the^ present sources,' and the success that v/buld \"follow an effort- on the part' of- all to* co-operate in putting in a ditch, and at once take advantage of the kindness of the ' Gold Commissioner.' ' He was fol-' lowed by Mr.,Brown,who had,'with \"a few others roughly examined the ground through which the ditch would have to be made.

That the committee appointed be empowered to obtain the neces- . sary preliminary information in regard to the propose'd ditch,-to be laid before a meeting of the miners to be held on August 9th at 7 p.m. A committee of the following miners was then.appointed : . ' . Messrs. Farrer, Lindsay, Mac- donald, Graham, Brown, Negus and Wilson. The meeting then 'closed with a hearty vote of thanks to the Gold Commissioner, , whose action the whole body of claim-holders on Willow Creek appreciate ; also to Mr. Bateman/ who so ably filled the chair. -< .'.\",' The adjourned meeting- of the Willow Creek Miners' Co-operative Water Association, Ld., was held oil Wednesday night, when a large number of miners were present. Mr. Bateman Was again elected chairman of the meeting and explained fully the subjects of the Asso ciation. During the season nearly the whole of the claims have been unworked for want of water, although there are four parties or companies wrho have obtained water rights to supply the mines. In only one case has any effort been made to sapply the water, viz.: from Elk lake, and that supply has been practically taken from the Willow Creek miners to supply the bench claims on Nugget Point, the water being afterwards returned into Pine Creek. The charges for supply of Water per sluice-head ir so exorbitant as to preclude its use from any but rich pay dirt, the charges vary ing from $7.50 to $20 per day of ten-hours, per sluice-head, and at present water cannot be got at any price. The miners formed themselves into a Co-operative Association, adopting the memorandum and articles of association, and immediate-steps will be taken to commence operations. . The miners themselves will supply the labor to construct a, ditch lo connect with Pine Creek,' for distribution of water to thedifferentclainv-owncrs without stint,'yet Without waste,' and it is estimated that the' work will cost $3,000, and that supplying claim owners At $l per sluice-head for 24 hours, will repay cost of construction iu six' weeks, besides giving the miners an immediate opportunity of working their claims,'' and also 'furnishing employment to a large\" 11 umber Of miners now idle.
