The company has a little rolling stock, thirty miles of track and a franchise. It also owes the State $8200 for taxes. Notice was repeatedly served on the office of the company that the taxes should be paid but to no purpose, and at last Attorney General Tirey L. Ford brought action against the company, received judgment and had .an execution issued. Still no movement was made toward liquidation and he ordered that the Sheriffs do their duty. Saturday the road was attached, and then the owners kept the telephone wires busy asking the Attorney General how a release could be effected.

C. Anderson, C. H. Kingsley and Charles Stepp to recover $50,000 which he says he paid to the -defendants for stock in the Algol copper. mine which they pretended was valuable. Stander says he has discovered that the mine is worthless; that the assays were “salted”; that the defendants conspired to defraud him, and that they had no title to the property, but only held a bond on it, which expired a few days after he paid for his stock. Stander’s wife has sued for $10,000, which she says she paid to some of the same defendants for shares in the Algol mine. Mr.and Mrs. Stander recently returned from the Klondike, where they accumulated a considerable fortune. There will be $85,000,000 expended next year in Greater New York in the construction of buildings.

The Sierra Valley Railway has tem porarily suspended operations on account of being in the hands of the Sheriff of Lassen county, and Saturday that portion of the road in Plumas county was seized by the Sheriff of that county. The company has a little rolling stock, thirty miles of track and a franchise. It also owes the State $8200 for taxes. Notice was repeatedly served on the office of the company that the taxes should be paid but to no purpose, and at last Attorney General Tirey L. Ford brought action against the company, received judgment and had .an execution issued. Still no movement was made toward liquidation and he ordered that the Sheriffs do their duty. Saturday the road was attached, and then the owners kept the telephone wires busy asking the Attorney General how a release could be effected. The answer was, “Dig up the cash,” which is promised. anes The historian tells us what has happened; the journalist records what is happening; .the novelist relates what might have happened; and the preacher tells us “what ought to happen, but no man knows what will happen. <n How’s This.
