[We do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions expressed by our correspondents.] ■ To the Elitor of the. Cromwell Akops. A MINER’S GRIEVANCE. Sir, —I wish to inform the miners and public in general that there is a practice prevalent on the Garrick Range, which has existed for some time, and which, if allowed to proceed, will cause a great deal of inconvenience and litigation during the ensuing summer. What I refer to is the habit that parties have got of marking off ground without giving it a fair trial, they being under the impression that they can resume occupancy whenever it suits them ; and that, if their pegs are all right, they can always hold the ground against any party who may make a discovery within their boundary (territory, I should say). I wish to state that unless this “ little game” is nipped in the bud, it will retard the progress of this district to a great extent, as parties who | are willing to develop the resources of this loI cality may not at all times find it convenient to | look for or find the whereabouts of those wor. \ tides who consider that their pegs are a sufficient | excuse to monopolise tho ( y | j giaing |.lasM)Mj*nnw6>- 1 0 lijj-Tu'rtr ■.; ■; ■■■ ■,-rnTV'l n.-n nuv’om Ai .lie* ■- : >0 Cromwell ArgusTV!
