CANFIELD BL ene —F CHAPTER III Sz out. We cleaned up fifteen ounces last week and will work it out by Thursday. Sent five hundred dollars to dad yesterday and I have got about three hundred on hand. I get the nicest kind of letters from dad. Mother is better because she thinks I will soon make. enough to satisfy me and come back. Hetty says I ought to be.there by Thanksgiving, but that is foolishness. If I am'there by the next one I will be ‘satisfied. I’m not so homesick since Anderson came to live with me. He is better educated than I am, has been through college and has had more experience, but he doesn’t put on any airs and we get along together like brothers, although he has:his blue spells. He never answers any letters that he gets, so far as I know, and those he receives are forwarded to him from San Francisco instead of coming here direct. He never goes to town, nor spends a cent except for grub. We killed a big ratt'z:snake on the trail to the claim Wednesday. It was coiled up under a bush and struck at and hit me on the bootleg. I jumped about ten feet and Anderson smashed its head with a stone. He was white-as a sheet and called me a darn fool for not looking where I was going. . got mad and told him he need not worry about my not being able to take care of myself, then. he put his arm around my neck and said he did not mean it; but I had come into his life and he did not want me to go out of it just yet. He’s a character. SEPTEMBER 22, -1850—We finished up the claim last week. It about petered ovit. We got only don’t pay we will go off prospecting. There was a’ fight on the creek last week. Donovan, an Irishman, jumped a claim, and when the rightful owner warned him off he drew an Allen's pepper box and shot Tracy, to whom the claim belonged, in the leg. Tracy beat the Irishman over the head with a shovel and left him for dead, although he did not die until yesterday. Tracy was taken over to town and tried before a fellow who sets himself up for an alcalde and was then turned loose, as it was a clear case of selfdefense. This is the first death on Rock Creek. The miners are indignant over Tracy being taken to Nevada. There is no more law there than on Rock Creek. Some fellow claims to be a sort of judge, but he’s got no legal authority and a miners’ court is just as binding here’as in town. We} held a meeting of all the miners along the creek, and: Anderson made a speech. Balbriggan Gowns and Pajamas 995 & 395 * _ Brushed Gowns and ‘Pajamas ‘Accountant Recommends Building and Business Licensing For County NEVADA ClTY: Lyman M. Straine, accountant employed by the board of supervsiors to audit the county’s books and check all financial transactions, submitting his report, found all accounts in order. He observed, however, in his
commentary on the county‘s conduct of its business: “The county is seriously in need of a building ordinance for unincorporated areas with a nominal fee for each building permit issued. The amount of the fee is not important, but the benefit would accrue through the office of the county assessor, providnig him with an index to increments in property values. “It is also contended that the county is losing a substantial amount of possible revenue from . business ticenses in unincorporated areas. It is our recommendation that a proper ordinance be adopted and enforced.” Mrs. Sturtevant Again Heads Girl Scouts NEVADA CITY: Mrs. Adele Sturtevant of the Nevada City Girl Scout Council hag ‘been reelected Scout commissioner for this: area. The. council voiced. its YE tude to the Business and Profes+ sional Women’s Club of this city for giving a fashion show . ‘for the Girl Scouts.

If the water shows discoloration when the drain plug is opened, it means efficiently as it may be. The water radiates heat much more quickly when it carries no’ scaly impurities. And incidentally, the scale forms an heat in them. . A FIRST FIND TROUBLE “Before inserting a new fuse 1s a substitute for one that has yurned out, it is an excellent idea to discover the reason for the ‘emise of the first one”, advises ". G.

Many excellent entries were received so that the judges hada difficult time ascertaining which was the best. “Why The People of This Community Should Support Local Industry” ‘By ELMER STEVENS “The system of small, ‘business in the just, prosperous ‘system hich keeps the way open to all; gives hope to all and conserves the improvement of conditions of all’. Thus spoke Abraham Lincoln of the free market indicating that home industries operated on a paying basis form the very greatnes$S of America. If they don’t thrive, the community suffers— suffers in loss of taxes and support for local community enterprises. A community operated by home industries is a source of pride and prosperity; money kept local schools, libraries, parks and a lower tax burden for the individuals in the community. What benefits one, benefits all. Yet, there are hundreds of ¢ommunities ruined by the shortsightedness of their inhabitants who take wealth out of the community in buying out of town. Their schools and churches are running :down; their streets need repair, many stores are closed, others barely make a living simply because their residents thought they “were saving by buying out of town,” Buying from large centers— out of town large concerns—is adding fuel to.
