—J
OUR STATE. HIGHWAYS LEAD. NATION
That California has the most extensive highway system in
the United States goes without saying. Our tourist trade runs
into thousands and thousands of dollars in a year’s time and
those sections of the state where the advantages have been
played up by advertising certainly get the biggest part of this
trade. In this section we are just beginning to realize the wonderful back country lying almost at our door.
It is the good roads that have made all this possible and the
consistent effort to bring to the attention of our eastern tourist the scenic beauties of our own section. This is the thing
that goes toward building up those sections that are fortunate
enough to have such natural resources. The following gives a
~ good idea of the present cost of good roads:
That the highway dollar is being called upon to show far
greater returns than ever before is definitely shown by a survey of street and highway paving and surfacing done during
1931. Analysis of reports by-The Asphalt Institute, from 48
state highway departments, 410 leading counties, 167 of the
principal cities and 47 larger New England towns, shows that
during 1931 an aggregate of 463,736,045 square yards of
street and highway were improved beyond the stage of plain
waterbound macadam and gravel roads, or the equivalent of
42,000 miles of 18-foot width surfacing.
Of this large total, more than 20,000 miles, or about 48 per
cent, were of the low-cost surface-treated types and nearly
7,000 miles, or about 16 per cent, of the comparatively lowcost road-mix types. Thus the
than 64 per cent of the total
low-cost types made up more
improved. Labor receives a
larger share of the dollar spent for this type of construction
than from any other.
4
A study of returns from 48 state highway departments
shows a significant gain in the comparatively low-cost roadmix or mixed-in-place types, even on main routes; this one
type with nearly 66 million square yards showing a tremendous gain over 1930 and indicating quite clearly the efforts on
the part of state highway authorities to make the highway dollar go as far as possible.
WE’LL BET ON JHURMAN
The libel suit filed against Editor Thurman of the Colfax
Record leads us to remark that newspapers sometimes have
to print things which do not please certain individuals. But in
the case of Editor Thurman of
Thurman.
the Record we are betting on
The editorial policy of the Record does not always please
everybody but, in the main, Thurman is right. He hits from
the shoulder and he hits hafd but he generally knows whereof
he speaks. A newspaper without backbone isn’t much of a
newspaper, and the editor who always trys to stay on the fence
and please both sides is usually a: weak sister whom nobody
respects.
The Colfax Record is one of the best weekly newspapers in
northern California and here’s hoping that the libel suit will
get nowhere which is practically a foregone conclusion.
—echange very much as time goes on.
AN OLD TRICK COMES
TO LIFE ONCE AGAIN
Sometimes a joke is so old it is
forgotten and then it suddenly bobs
up as a new joke and gets over fine.
The following story brings forth an
old ‘trick. in the mining.. game that
shows human. nature does not
There’s ‘‘one born every minute.”’
A couple of prospectors went into
one of the merchants’ place of business in Pine Grove Amador county
recently and explained that their
funds had run low, made a few purchases and offered a small quantity
of placer gold, for which the proprietor gave then $107.00
Shortly after their departure the
merchant became a little suspicious
of the alleged gold. He had it tested,
and learned that the specimens were
brass and bronze.
He immediately notified
sheriff's office at Jackson. Investigation disclosed that the check had
been cashed at a local bank and the
pair of psuedo prospectors had left.
A complaint was sworn to and a
Warrant issued. But so far, the prospectors are still going.

POWDER FOR MURCHIE
Three shifts of 150 men are now
employed at the Murchie mine. According to reports another shift will
be added to the crew in the mill
making two shifts in the twentyfour hour period.
It has been predicted for some
time that the mine would in afew
months employ more men than. before it was purchased. the first of
the year. :
With an additional shift in the
mill crew we believe they will have
about ‘the same number of men employed as at the time of selling to
the new company.
At this rate it will not. take the
Newmont Interests long to exceed
the old number. This company with
its immense wealth behind it has
been able to put the mine in excellent shape, sink another 300 feet
besides installing new machinery.
A large truck load of powder to
be used in mine work was delivered
to the Murchie mine Tuesday by the
Los Angeles-Phoenix Express company.
This powder is hauled from the
state of Arizona by the Newmont
company that owns the Murchie
mine east of Nevada. City.

PROMINENT NEVADA
‘MINING MAN FOUND DEAD
Ai R: Brooke, a mining man
well known in the state of Nevada
as well as California, was found
dead in hig bed at Reno this week,
where he had resided for some time.
The remains were taken to Tonopah where .funeral services were
held Wednesday. He was a native of
England, 58 years old, and has been
employed by the Gold Hill Development company for some time.
“Brookie”’ as he was known by his
friends was a_ kindly man very
charitable in nature and had the
reputation of helping those in need.
Many instances of this kind can be
called to mind by those who knew
him personally.
‘DEER SEASON OPEN TODAY
Unless the wather changes, the
opening of the deer season today in
State fish and game. districts 1,
1 3. /4, 4, 4%, 4 3-4, 23, 24, and 25,
will bé in the midst of forest fires
and’ dangerous fire hazard conditions, and hunters will have to—give
more than ordinary cooperation in
preventing fires. According to a
. statement from the office of the U.
S. Regional Forester, San Francisco,
forest watershed fires suddenly
assumed serious proportions in tne
national forests on September 6.
Prior to this date the acreage
burned was 84 per cent less and the
number of fires 25 per cent below
ithe corresponding date for 1931.
High temperatures, low humidity
and: high winds in’ these game districts, which cover the mountain
‘hunting grounds located in the national forests of the Siskiyou, Sierra
Nevada and the eastern part of the
southern coast ranges, created fire
hazards with the result that fire
control was. difficult, and large
acreages were burned.
Forest Service officials believe
that unléss more than ordinary care
is taken by all hunters and travelers
with their camp fires'and smoking,
many of the deer ranges Will be devastated and other losses will result.
