a pian The Daily Transcript, . NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA. Wednesday, Nov. 2, 1881. as Sabstantiat Indications Wanted. — Mining for precious metals is a stable, legitimate business, founded on solid, economical ' principles, far more oertain,n its results than the ~~amajorityet recognized fegitimate com-mercial enterprises. As the Black = Hits Fimes-sdys; the only questions) oy eset of Teathiers. to bé considered in mining are the quantity and cost of production ; the market is never glutted, the precious metals ‘ate almost” invariable, the thousand and one financial troubles which disturb and prostrate ‘other industries do not affect it. Without ‘the elements of success any business must bea failure, The banker must have capital, the merchant goods and . . the miner a mine. In years past men without experience, devoid «of practical knowledge, had to take ohances on mines, To-day we have experts who make the business a speciality, and are qualified for it by practice and education to pronounce on the value ofa mine, . The day of going it blind on a property is past; there «must be development and something jm sight, the. value of which can be made apparent by mathematical demonstration. A developed property will sell for a mine, but a prospect hole will bring oealy what it is worth as a speculation, — Prove it or Take it Back. It has been asserted that four ‘members of the Sacramento Board of Supervisora were offered $20,000 _ to let certain outsiders (representa~ tives of the hydraulic mining industry being meant) name the attorney to be employed by that county in the anti-slicken suits. The Bee publishes the statement for truth, Now wwe are auxious, incommon with all other law-respecting people, to know something more, about this alleged transaction. Is there any. truth in is, or is it kimply a slander invented by McClatchy & Co, to advance ‘the . cause of Cadwalader and his ring? If it is not the latter, as mach can be readily proven, , If such. proof is not forthcoming without delay the originators of the statement must submit to being branded as liara and slanderers who deserve no better fate than having a big stone tied to their necks and being thrown into a deep mining reservoir. oe &— Another Ex-Nevadan. Tho party referred te in the following extract froin the San Franciseo Post is supposed to be the same queer little Sam. Price who usel to reside in this city, being employed as ajssiesman by A, Goldsmith the dry goods merchant, He was a very eccentric fellow and a butt of ridicule, forall whom: he came in contact with. The Post says: ‘Samuel Price, solicitor and collector for Katle & Co., shoe manufacturers, skipped Thursday, it is alleged, taking with him, $1,090 ‘ef-thea firm’s money which he had collected the previous day. Price was formerly with Marks & Bolina, but for six months past has been in Earl & Co.’s employ. When Mr. Earl called on hid customers on collection day he found that Price had been before: him and had scooped in the amounts due, Price is unmarried, aged 35, and said to be a devotee of the ‘tiger.’ ” When Kin Meets King, . When Mr. and Mrs, Johan W. ' Mackay were in Stockholm recently they were graciously received and entertained by King @scar of Sweden. About the same time Mackay’s partner, Col. Fair, at his fine new residence in San Francisco, was entertaining Kong Kalakaua of the Sandwich Islands. Thus do the two Bonanza Kings affiliate with national Kings. Four kings is generally.eonsidered to be & pretty good hand. Our two Bonanza Kings certainly are a good hand by themselves. In fact, financially speaking, they may. be considered a ‘*flush.”—Gold Hill News. am Everybody says that Hoskins keeps the best beer in town, nl-3t PARTIES wishing pictures copied > and finished in water-colors or crayon had better bring them in before 4Quirk goes away as they will not have as good a chance again. tf, Booms for rent.

Those feather turbans are exceedinzly pretty to be sure, but we want to tell our feminine friends that there is more danger in wearing . them than in carrying both hip The Stage Driver’s Safeguard. {Salt Lake Tribune.} The drunken driver who upset the Park City stage tecently and tolled Dr. McKenzie, the © temperance lecturer, down @ bank, comes out pockets full of self-cocking revolvers. A lady quite prominent’ in society circles was walking up Main “street a.couple of days ago with one on:her head, when a shanghai rooster ‘that was perched on a fence close to whichjshe passed. sprang upon her summit and fastened its toe-nails in with his defense. ‘here's nothing . like. good Utah rotgut to protect a man from danger” quoth the driver, “McKenzie fell five or six feet and when they picked. him wp he was almost dead. He wen’t be of much accouut for two or three weeks — yet. Now see how different it is with me. Pwas pitched fe board “Shoo!” stie screamed, breaking into a rua and shaking her skirte vigorously as she speeded. The rooster went as fast as she did, and at every jump she made buried its beak in her head-gear to withdraw it each time filled with anew lot of feathers. It was just beginning to get its work in on her imported cheffonier whén-a _ poultry dealer hove in sight and the chanticleer hastily dismounted as the lady fainted from exhaustion-and fright into her — rescuer’s outstretched arms, '“A private detectiye employed by the victim’s husband to work up the case, ascertained that the trimmings of the turban were formerly worn who was abducted from her home during one dark night a fewweeks since, It is said the former owner of the poultry has ‘also found this out and thinks seriously of having _. theady arrested for receiving stolen goods, while the brother of the departed. hen wants a murder case inade out of it. It is e complicated affair, and when all the facts come out will create a sensation worthy of this locality and age. © ; Tho Biind WHI Not See. The Marysville Express is.getting ont of patience, It says: When the miners proposed to prevent this debris from coming down the rivers the city of Maryavillevery graffly declined the proposition, This ‘‘beautiful city” in fact drew down on its own bead the destruction that now threatens hery She has been repeatedly warned in time but all along declined to listen to the admonitions. True enough her position is ’ deplorable at present, But she has appealed to the courts for help. They have failed.to give the implored assistance as everybody -knew they would from the start, But if the ‘heartless hydraulic miners” should cease pouring their tailings down in what respect would her condition’ be changed? The debris in the rivers would still imminent, -If Marysville would devote some of the zeal now wasting in senseless legal struggles to protective measures, she would have less cause to fear the wrath to come. If she had shown any disposition to act fairly in the matter, assistance would flow in from the miners theim-eelves to provide the needed prdtection, Grass Valley Mines. _ The new steam hoisting works of the Washington mine were started up Monday in due form—a namber of the stockholders being present to take part.im the inauguration ceremonies, which were of an interesting character. The shaft 6 the Peabody mine has been pumped out, end the extract‘ing of quartz.will be commenced "unmediately. The new machinery works well, and the big water wheel runs without jar or friction and under a less head of water than was thought necessary, The bullion yield. of the Idaho mine for the month of October (five weeks) was in round numbers $65,000, from which the usual dividend of $7 50 per share, amounting to $23,250 will be paid. This will be the 147th regular dividend paid by the mine, amounting to $3,078,30), out of a gross product of about $0,751,000, —Uniun,. s School Keport. Brug Tent, Ocr. 28, 1881.
