L. WOLFF on The name of California was first made famous because of its gold. Its gold continues to bring fame and fortune. And Nevada county still leads every other gold producing sec+ tien of the-state.__+—_____ caver At the southern entrance of Grass Valley from Sacramento, the highway passes underneath a tramway that connects two of America’s famous mining properties, To the east it connects with the Empire mines and to the west with the N. Star. Turning left at the first intersection the street leads to Boston Ravine and a brick grocery store occupied . by Hodge & Kingham which in the early 50’s was one of the pioneer bakeries. Another left turn and just beyond the end of the pavement begins the property known as the North Star. Below the road next to Wolf Creek is the compressor plant, a beautiful rock building. Next, the cyanide plant where Kraut Flotation cells now recover the fine gold. From here the road climbs quickly to reach the collar of the shaft, a tall steel frame topped by great sheaves over which pass the steel ropes that raise and lower the ore skips and cages. It is possible to walk right up to the shaft, 2600 feet above sea-level, and look down into the black depth whose bottom lies more than 1500 feet below sea-level. Here the miners iake their daily .elevator ride in a shaft that far surpasses the elvator shaft of the worlds highest sky scraper. Close by is the hoist room with the tremendous intricate machinery that raises and lowers thousands of tons of ore and rock and hundreds of men. From the tramway tthe surface works of the Empire mines are visible at the other end.

This estate with its ivy covered heavy rock walled house that breaths of by-gone decades and hints of future centuries; its terraced seasonal flower garwalled in English holly; dens by great hedges of tall holly trees; its sweep of grassy lawn and founits tains; the iron grilled fence around the ends of which steps iead down along side a cascading terraced water fall to a hedge enclosed swimming pool and its neighboring lacy loafed birch bark trees—an estate ranking in sheer beauty and appeal with the finest in the west. Adjacent is the hom'e of George V. Starr surrounded by various species of towering evergreens and a smooth waving lawn that seems to, reach as far as-the eye can see. Close by the Empire Country Club with its tennis court was built many years ago by and for the mine operators and their staff. The office of the Empire Mines is a fine stone structure built with rocks that come out of the mine. The pretentious gateway together with the rock walls make it appear like the entrance to a park. A covered bridge leads from the office to the upper floor of the stamp mill. Just beyond the end of the machine shop is the shaft which leads on an incline to the bottom of the Empire. Here a long skip baings up the ore and the waste rock. At change ofshifts the skip is unhooked and flat cars take their places. A long row of men in their digging clothes with the carbide lamps aflame on their caps seat themselves ready for the descent. A signal is given and slowly the cars get underway as the men disappear into the darkness. The visitor to the Empire Mines should also include the Osborn Hill trip over the road built by Mrs. Starr. The road six-zags through the trees, past ancient mine buildings and foundations and soon begins to climb higher and, higher. The trees screen any. distant view. Suddenly a turn is rounded near the top and the whole Sacramento Valley lies before you.

MUCH OPPOSITION ~~T0 GAS TAX GRAB Governor Rolph’s proposal to divert highway funds to the general fund is meeting with* strong opposition from all over. the state and in this section of California disapproval is being strongly manifested. At the weekly luncheon meeting Chamber of Commerce Friday the sentiment was unanimous against the proposal and legislature will be informed of the action of the Grass Valley the representatives in’ the of the Grass Valley organization. By a vote of 1,103,891 to 544,222 or more than two to one, the people of California have forcefully declared that they will not tolerate diversion of highway funds to any other purpose than those to which the funds are specifically pledged and dedicated. That vote was cast against State Proposition No. 4 at the recent election. 4 involved depriving of only a comparatively small sum of money, alone responsiblefor defeat which the. proposed received. The successful campaign which ganized the proposition dealt mainly with the dangers of setting a precedent for diversion of highway funds. The overwhelming ‘‘NO” vote clearly expressed a determination that highway funds shall not be made a convenient grab bag for the boistering of the state general fund. Sacramento—B. O.
