wy
HE temporary closing down of the.Champion mine and
the throwing out of employment of one hundred and
twenty-five miners, for the time being, is just “ducks”
for the croakers who are always on hand to predict.that this
city and mining district is going to the demnition bow-wows.
As in many instances heretofore; they will soon find out that
their predictions will not materialize into fact and renewed,
activity and increased prosperity will compel them to take
a back seat and quit their “knocking.”
The Champion mines are among the best properties in
this district'and a mint of gold lies in them that only. awaits
the situation is
The mines have reached a stage where it will
require a large expenditure of money to develop them, and
as;soon as the company can make satisfactory arrangements
work will be resumed on probably a larger scale than ever
the miner’s pick to uncover. The fact of
simply this.
before. To predict that the famous Champion company has
suspended work permanently and abandoned the miue is the
veriest kind of nonsense to promulgate. The wealth is
known to be there and it is only a question of time when the
Some men

picions of a black future.
ups and downs, as is the common lot of all mining towns
but'no more solid foundation for valuable and permanent
mines can be found anywhere in the world than .in and
around this section of country. The mines of this vicinity
will continue to pour-its golden treasure into the commercial
avenues of the world long after the present generation has
ceased to exist, and when the present uncalled-for scare has
passed away, as it surely will very soon, then prosperity and
confidence will exist universally and continue until some
other bugaboo is thrown into the camp. No sensible man of
sound judgment should become panic-stricken simply because
the Champion or any other mine temporarily closes down.
in fact, these are incidents occasionally looked for in every
mining community. It is time enough to feel despondent
and pessimistic when the dismantling of a big mine has been
commenced.
The Champion scare is causing considerable discomfort
in a great many ways and affects money and business mat~
ters very seriously. Many people who owe debts are holding on to their coin, closing up their purses with an iron
grip, So to speak, and :letting the payment of their debts go
by until the sunshine of prosperity again returns—which it
surely willin a short time. But this. custom of holding
money tight and close under such unwarranted circumstances
only reacts on the individuals pursuing this policy and helps
to make matters worse for themselves as well as for their
creditors and the community in generally. The unstinted
or liberal use of money and the prompt payment of bills always begets confidence.
There are today more men employed in mines outside of
of the Deer Creek properties than at any time in years, and
when the Champion resumes work, as it surely will, and the
Murchie and other mines where great preparatory work is
now in progress, Nevada City will be able to boast of having
more miners employed than at any time in its history.
Ten times blacker clouds of mining depression have vise
ited this city in years gone by, when there seemed to be no
sunlight of prosperity at all, yet it came in good time and
the croakers were silenced, as they will be again before many
months have rolled by. ‘There is virtually nothing whatever
to cause despondency or a panic in this section, for when it
comes to a show-down this district’s annual output of bullion
will not be far from that of previous years. The future outlook of this section is. exceedingly bright and when we reflect upon the fact that today there are more quartz mines
being worked than at any time in the history of this mining}
district, and many mines that have not beeh worked for more
than’half a-century until now are yielding handsomely, (two
remarkably well—the old Pennsylvania and the Murchie)
truly the sentiment that is prevailing has no good foundation
and should be dispelled, The sooner people come to this
truthful conclusion and endorse the right view of the matter,
the better it will be for their own happiness and peace of mind
48 well as those around us, and the sooner will implicit confidence return and increased prosperity prevail to delight and
satisfy all, As an old adage goes: “Don’t shake hands
with the Devil until you meet him,”

who has many friends here, came to
town from the Summit early this week,
‘had quite a eum of money in his
possession and for safe-keeping placed
$100 in possession. of the bartender
mentioned. That evening the old man
decided to return to the Sammit, The
bartender, to be obliging (?), went with
the man and purchased his ticket,
after which he handed him his money.
The coin was done up in a “neat package,” another striking evidence of
friendship (?). Mr. Lowell, however,
decided to count the coin and in doing
80 discovered that it was $20 short.
This caused him to change his mind
about leaving town; instead he went
back and accused the bartender of
robbing him, The fellow grew indignant at first, bat as the old man insisted upon hie rights, the mixologist
became nervous and in an injared tone
said: ‘Well, rather than bave you
accase me of robbing you I will pay
you the money out of my own funde,”
With that be returned the twenty dollars belonging to Mr. Lowell. Fortunately there wore several witnesses; in
the saloon at the time who reported
the incident to the officers and also to
the proprietor of the saloon. The proprietor promptly discharged the bartender, who, by the way, has always
been looked upon as a crook, Oonstable. McDougald and his deputies

CALFOOMA STRIE
“San Francisco, September 17.—A general strike was
declared on the California Northwestern Railway this morning. The crew of the ferry steamer Tiburon was also called
out.
The trouble was all occasioned from the fact that one, A.
D. McDonald, was discharged by the corporation, because of
his affiliation with the Union.
All the shop men and freight handlers remained loyal and
immediately walked out.
The Union men claim that they will completely tie up the
entire system, The railroad officials say the strike will not
last long.
“CUNDERLANY RESINS
Lonpon, September 27—Coloniai Secretary Chamberlain has decided to resign from the Cabinet. He says this
