The writer fetarned last week frotn several days’ stay in Sierra county. He fougd the mining in~ dustry there growing rapidly. _Thé Bald Mountain drift mine continues to produce heavily, Thé main tunne isnow in about a mile and a _ half, aud anew tunnel to open up _ deposits along the line‘near the ex1,400 feet from the entrance. This company general y employ 150 men, although but two-thirds of that number are at work just now as the dumps are all fall of gravel and there has been no water “for, washing, till will soon be put on again. The Bald Mountain Extension the clean-ups being upwards of “ten ouncesa day. This, like the original Bald Mountain Company, isa lo cal organization, the stockbolders being miners and business men in Sierta county, The maih tunnel is in nearly 4,000 feet, and the richness of the. channel which was not fairly opened on till a-few-weeks. since, is, daily imereasing. The oatput to date approximates $15,000, while the cost of development thus far has been not It is believed that by Spring enough ground will be opened to give room fora hundred workmen, and the beginuing of div— idends is expected soon, ‘All along the same ridge, which. extends up through Sierra ‘City to Gold Lake, in the upper part of the county, theré willbe much activity when the present stormy season is over, Le \ At Minnesotg, just across from Moore's F.at, the Contennial Drift] {i Company after five years of ex‘ ploratien and an expenditure of many thousands of dollars, are appatently entering the gold-bearing channel, . Substantial’ results are . looked for theré. The Rainbow and North Star near Alleghany and the Alaska at Vike City are among the great quartz mines of Sierra county. They and several others are panning out in a manner to enrich their owners, There'ia no portion of the State that holds out stronger attractions to mosied mining men than does the eounty’‘on. our aerth, Comparatively little prospecting has been done there yet, owing to a lack of railroad communication whjch —hae/. yb opened. led it to be considered by many as -a sort of out-of-the-way country. But we question if there is any mining region on the Coast where richer and more perinanent mines, _adtift or gravel, have been opened for the amount of money spent there. a. A: Threadbare Slander. ¥ The hydrautic mifers “discharged their Chinamen a few months ayo, and hired white laborers, in order to make-their cause more .popular, ‘hut since the whole questign is in. court and likely to go against them, they nave turmed out the white men aud reatored the cheap Chinamen. ‘Thus we see the carious spectacle of ‘several corporations of foreigners. hiring other aliens as workmen fight-\~ ing for the right to destroy the water courses of the State and bury the most important walley under the sande they are sending down from the mountains. —Oakland Times. . The Transcairt has within a few days proven beyond a question that there is no truth ia the above.
