The San Francisco Bulletin lately published. .an article, showing the amounts of banking capital and depos~ ites of San Francisco and Chicago, and. attempted to draw a favorabie’compariseh in favor of the-former city, for the. reason that it had almost twice the capital in that-business that Chicago . has. The showing made is, of itself, the strongest evidence that could -beq desired-to prove that Chicago is in advance of San Francisco in business prosperity.—Stockton Independent. ‘The Independent is right. Hoarded capital is not wealth, and the fact that Chicago with less capital does more business than San Francisco shows that the enterprise of citizensof the former place is greater than that of San Francisco,.The miser may gloat over his millions in money hoarded away, while. his neighbor with his few thousands is doing a business equal to ten.times his capital and adding so much wealth to the country in which he lives.— San Francisco has entirely too much capital in the hands of the few, who employ it not for development, but to draw from the profits of those who are laboring to. build up business. Heavy capitalists of that city stand behind their millions of money and lazily wait until businéss necessities compel their more industrious neighbors to call on them for aid, They then help only an condition of being permitted to draw the “life blood” from enterprise in the Shape of usurious rates of interest, Money as a rule is held until it can be ° multiplied at the rate of two or two anda half per cent. per month, by the labor and . industry of somebody else besides the holder, San Francisco has more capital and less enterprise in development than probably any city aspiring to become a commercial center, in the world, Chicago, with her small capital, is sending ‘agents of trade within sight of San Francisco, while the wealthy men of the latter place are ranning Mercantile Library raffles ; speculating in stocks or endeavoring to “bulland bear” the grain market. Chicago capital is invested for the purpose of drawing tribute by trade from all parts of the country, while San Francisco capital is employed in playing a heavy game of “freeze out” among its <itizeas. Money is simply “an agent, when properly used for creat. iog wealth. and if employed in manufacture, commerce, agriculture or mining it is creating. Money used in speculating is only accumulating in the hands of the few, without adding'a partitle to the wealth of the country. Money properly used is a blessing to any people, but when it is only used to epable the holders of the largest pile to absorb all around then, then itis a curse. The boast of the Bulletin is only an evidence of a waut of wisdom on the part of business managers in San Francisco. They should give their capital an opportunity by prudent investment in industry, and it, would, instead of depressing business, increase it, Every dollar added to the wealth of any part of the State is a benefit to San Francisee, That city would flourish . upon the prosperity of the interior, and that prosperity would bea fixed fact if capital were legitimately employed by " Dbasiness. men. . The Yellow Diamond, The Yellow &.dmond Quartz Mining Co, has been taking out some excellent rock Irom a new ledge on Brush creek. Four hundred pounds of rock have been taken to Maltman’s for prospecting, and it is estimated it will yield at the rate of $200 to $250 per ton. The County Boundary.

The company turned out to the number of 42, rank and. file, and marched to Mulloy’s. ground, preceded by Carter's brass band.

The shooting was not near so good as the Company has done. The best string of three shots, 27 9-16, was made by J. M. Rienberger, who won the lamb and pulled it in a small cart at the head of the Company. The next best string of three shots was made by H. R. McCoy, 29 9-16; 3d, James Hack.
