Pike Vasques, who in 1836 was a trader in the employ of his uncle, Colonel Smith, at Smith's Fort on the Arkansas river mnot very far from Denver, declared that in those early days he bought gold dust from the Indians and Mexicans at $2.50 an ounce. Other discoverles of gold in the Pike's Peak district were made on Cherry creek and the Platte river in 1868 by a party of Georgla miners headed by W.

The latter met the gold laden coach at the outskirts of the city with another coach, on which was the sign “Leavenworth Hears the Echo From Her Mineral Mountains and Sends It on the Wings of Lightning to a Listening World!" 80 optimistic were the newspapers of the gold flelds that they irritated certain g0ld seekers, who instead of realizing their expectations of extracting gold by the scoopful got absolutely nothing for their long and arduous tramp across the great plains. The disgruntled ones sug- gested the lynching of the editors wh strong falth in the future of the Plce's peak district and vivid discription of the richness of the gold flelds had drawn many on what proved a wild goose chase coples were run off in the presence of & large gathering of citizens. The editor and printers of the News ate and slept in the one room in which they 80t out the paper, and a constant lookout had to be kept for attacks by desperadoes. Colonel William N. Byers, the editor, de- nounced the latter and threats flew his way furfously. On one occasion several| men rode up to the office and opened fire on it. The office force laid down thelr pencils and sticks, took up thelr shotguns and revolvers and responded with & fusil- lade. Another Pike's Peaker near suffering seriously for his optimism was D. C. Oukes, who had written a pamphlet lauding the country.

It s & tradition that the boomers re- solved that there should be nmo misiake bout the first mine to be shown to Mr. Greeley.

Skilled as were the California and Georgia miners who first discovered and developed the Pike's Peak district, yet evidently they dld not recognize the indications of any other metal than gold.
