Mail 10 lEiIIvilIe.


Having no mail or Express line between
here and Mllville, Battle Greek, sc. is a
great hardship on the people aud is "a seri-
ous detriment and positive injury to the
business Of Shasta. 1t is a mystery to US
why the business men of tbs place do not
take an interest in securing the re estab-
lishment of the Millville line. No wonder
the town is dull and business slack, when
no effort is made to bring trade here or to
keep up communications with outside
places. When Johnson's express and mail
line was in operation, he scarcely ever
made trip without bringing orders here
to fill amounting to from $50 TO S1OO.-
The expenditure of such sums help to keep
up the business Of a place, but if those
who are most interested decline to take
any steps to secure trade and facilitate out
side communications, we cannot help it.
We know however, the mail route to Mill
vile can be re-established if the proper
effort is made to secure the result. Shall
that effort be made? A community that
can help itself and deliberately refuses to
do so, does not deserve prosperity.

New EXperinI ent.

Mr.. '. Ryan, who was one of the pro
prietors of the late Sacramento News, is
preparing to issue a new paper at Weaver
vile, and has purchased the old press upon
which the Douglas City Gazette was
printed-the first press ever taken over
the Trinity mountains. We tried bucking
against the Journal for one year, when
times were better and money plentier in
Trinity than at present, and the result was
that we had to suspend publication, and
'abor two years more in Shasta county, to
pay off executions issued against Il e firm
of Ridge & Carter for debts necessarily
contracted while indulging in the luxury
of publishing sheet of Democratic pro-
clivities. There is not mining county in
Northern California, except Siskiyou, that
can support more than one paper, and the
old established sheets have every advantage
and cannot be froze out by new expert
ments, which mostly end in financial
embarrassments to the publisher and loss
to patrons.
