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.

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.”

TEST COOLING SYSTEM
Whether the cooling system of
your car is in need of an internal
bath is easily determined. 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

“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. America’s No. 1
economic problem—centralization
