Interesting Review by a
Talented Writer.
*
THE. PRESENT OUTLOOK THERE.
One of the Most. Productive and Pic° turesque Portions of Our
County.
Nevada county possesses a variety of,
climate and scenery that’ is unequaled any:
where in California. In the eastern part
of the county is the mighty Sierra range
with its snow-capped hills rising tier above
tier until they seem to touch the very
canopy of heaven, From the rolling foothills, which areabout 600 feet above the
level of the sea, we climb’the sloping sides
of the Sierras until we reach an altitude of
8000 feet. In its broad area of a thousand
square miles it embraces every climate from
the semi~tropical warmth of the foothills
to the snow and ice of the summit. There
arg places in the lower foothills where snow
is seldom seen, while in other places in the
volve and the snow never departs. In the.
extreme western part of the county citrus
fruits grow to perfection, also, the olive
and other semi-tropical fruits, whi'e in the
central portion, at an altitude of 2,400 feet,
the Bartlett pear and other fruits of the
temperate zone develop their best flavor.
On Sunday last the writer and Ed, W.
Schmidt, ‘four next Public Administrator,”
paid a visit to the San Juan Ridge. Ii
was a typical autumn morning, The sun
shone in all ita beauty and splendor. Old
Sol seemed imbued with the idea that his
precence was essential on this particular
day, and he was generous toa fault, Nature was dressed in its best garb; the foilage
of the plants and trees was extremely gorgeous. The warmth of the sun and the exhalation of Nature’s garden caused the
birds to warble their sweetest and noblest songs, The drive was a delightful one,
one of the best in the county, . and its present splendid condition is due to the energetic efforts of the efficient Supervisor, F,
M. Pridgeon, The scenery on this road
beggars description. The traveler is surmitable depths.

when men were flocking to the newly disof their nativity, this town. was organized,

Situated at Columbia Hill is the famous Eureka Lake and South. Yuba Canal
Company’s mine. This is one of the largest
hydraulic mines on the ridge and has
a number of years it was successfully worked
and then came the crash in the form of the
Sawyer decision, Under the Caminétti law
this company was granted a permit to re~
sume hydraulic mining.. and they are at the
present time operating one six-inch monisor, which employs quite a force of men,
But whilst much time and money have
been devoted to the successful development
of the auriferous deposits, quartz ledges
existing in this section have not been altotogether neglected, With the yuppression
of hydraulic mining the people who had
established homes there began to turn their
ittention to the system of quartz mining.
In this venture they have been very sucvessful, The famous Delhi mine is situated about six miles frem the town This
-mine, although now suspended, has been
very productive and has materially: replenished the treasury of its owners. The Enverprise is another ‘miné owned by the
game company and situated about 800° feet

prosperity and‘contentment beamed from
the countenances of rich and poor,now there
‘is sorrow and depression. There are some
quartz ledges being developed in the surrounding country, prominent among which
is the Quick Bros.’ property at Badger
Hill. This mine is in a prosperous condition. The ore is of a very high grade.
The sulphurets will average $120 a ton,
The Superintendent, Paul Quick, Jr., informed us that the vein is fifteen inches

This mine. is employing several men and
there is every evidence of its becoming a

SAN JUAN,
We reached San Juan in the evening just
as Nature was arraying itself in the robes of
night, Everything was quiet and serene.
This town is rapidly recovering from the
shock received through the suppression of
hydraulic mining. “The, people are confident of the future happiness and prosperity
of the town and they bear a cheerful expression. San Juan is the most beautiful
town in the mountains. The streets are
broad and well laid, Some of the residences are commodious and very artistic.
The towiowns its own water works, and
the buildings are protected by an efficient
fire department. Large and commodious
stores containing every variety of merchandise are found on the main street, Fruit
grows in abundance here, and it reaches a
the valley, Surrounding the.town are several nicely arranged and extensive orchards.
The people are kind and generous to a fault.
They are aware of the great injustice which
they have suffered through the inhibition of
hydraulic mining, but they bear their grievances with a noble and heroic patience
which must eventually win for them the
sympathy and support of every individual
who understands their position.
San Juan was once the center of.a large
and prosperous mining community. On
every hand were evidences of activity and
success, which must have been gratifying to
every resident, In close proximity to the
town is the famous Sebastopol mine, which
has been great in extent and the richness of
its gravel. This mine‘has produced several
millions of dollars, and when in ‘full operation gave employment to a large number of
men, At the present time several quartz
ful, will prove a valuable adjunct to the
town, : Prominent among the quartz mines
in close proximity to San Juan are the Boas
Mine, Penetrator and the Crane and Wright.
The mines are all located on the same
in developing a fine. body of mineral. A
dred feet of backs ready for stoping. The
mineral, ‘The Penetrator is owned by the
Huckins brothers of San Juan. They are
oping a productive mine are very favorable,
to assert that in the future it will make San

boom,

Hydraulicking is not being prosecuted on

SECRETARY WAITE
———
Record-Union: A very full meeting of
State officers and Capito] employes was held
yesterday afternoon in the office of SuveyorGeneral Reichert for the purpose of making
arrangements for the funeral of the late
Secretary of State E. G. Waite, which will
take place in this city Friday at 2e™M.,
and he will be interred in the State~ burial
plot.
State Treasurer McDonald was chosen as
Chairman of the meeting and T, L. Eby as
Secretary.
Mr. McDonald, in taking the chair, while
thanking the assembly fir the honor done
him, expressed his deep regret at the sad
oocasion which had brought theni together.
It was hardly necessary to say anything in
reference to Mr. Waite. All knew him and
knew his character, and the many sterling
qualities that endeared him to those that
knew him, They had met here to arrange
for the funeral cerémonies, and he was ready
to listen to any suggestions on that subject.
On motion of W. E. Hedley, the Chair
appointed a committee of four to decorate
the Assembly Chamber and arrange for the
funeral services. The committee appointed
was Surveyor-General Reichert, W, W.
Douglass, George E, Pratt and W. E. Hadley.
eastern part of the county the seasons re". greater degree of perfection than it-does—in}—-The Chairman said it had been suggested .
that the Capitol should be draped in mourning, and he would like the sense of the
meeting on that point,
A diversity of opinion was developed, and
after some discussion, the Chairman was
added to the committee of four with full
power to act.
State Superintendent Anderson, W. P.
Mathews, Albert Hart, Adjutant-General
Allen and J. Dunn were appointed as a committee to draft suitable resolutions, which
will be engrossed and presented to Mrs.
Waite,
The body will arrive from Alameda tonight, and will lie in state in the Avsémbly
Chamber from 9 4. Mm, till 12 Mm. on Friday,
so that such friends as may desire can take
