THE Sacramento Union says all the
mints in the country have been order
ed to run to their full capacity in coin
ing silver. It is conceded in the East
that the Government can afford to
withdraw the fractional currency, and
supply the demand for small change
in silver. This would bring green
backs to silver basis from which
they would not likely recede. We are
producing silver enough to supply
this demand and good many times
more. All that is necessary, is to coin
it up and redeem the fractional cur
rency. When this is done we shall
only have the difference between sill
yer and gold to make currency on a
par with gold. The difference at the
lowest generally goes about i've per
cent. g. when we have q flush sill
yer currency it viii run down i've per
cent. below gold. Those who are
sticking for q hard currency would be
satifed after packing it around for
awhile md exchange it for greenbacks
al par, or pay the difference tor gold.
One hundred millions would food the
co,,ntrv with silver, and if Congress
would make it a legal tender for all
debts under one hundred dollars par.
With the foreign trade in our favor it
would be only one step motp 70 specie
That would come as mat

THE action Of the Secretary of War
in the matter amending the contract
for furnishing headstones for graves
of the soldiers buried in the national
cemeteries has produced quite an an
CRY commotion among the hundred OF
so competitors for the job. Instead OF
the contract having been given to one
person it has been divided up among
four bidders. There was vast amount
OF lobbying going on in Washington
last winter over this ward, and the in
terest displayed in the dead Union

the competing bidder, was Of q most

A SUGAR REVOLUTIoN.-An in
yention which threatens to interfere
greatly with our commerce is reported
from Paris, and if it proves success
it will probably have the effect OF
causing an entire revolution among
the Southern planters. The new dis
coyery is a method of making sugar
by uniting into compound, its con-
stituent atoms Of carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen. The inventor, M. Joug-
les less, says that the cost of production
will be fifty cents per cwt., and he has
already go far succeeded in establish
ing the utility Of his invention that q
company Of manufacturers have been
pursuaded to purchase it from him for
the comparatively moderate sum OF
$4,000. What the sugar planters
and refners will do if this discovery
turns out to be as important IS it
promises remains to be seen; but there
is no doubt that if it is only partially
successful, strange Developments may
be expected. The invention is said
to be very simple, and one easily ex-
planned; and endless quantities OF
saccharine substance can, it is claim
ed, be manufactured by this new pro
cess in SO short time and at so small
q cost as to preclude the possibility Of
competition.

The Ruin ~ Spectators.

All tie wealthy spectators who for
years have operated in stocks have
been wiped out by tho heavy decline.
There is consequently no one to up
hold and sustain the market. OF the
crippled wealthy spectators, James
Banker was the chief. Beginning life
a poor boy, he was coached by Com.
modore Vanderbilt until his income
became between $500 1900 and 300 900
annually. lie scattered his money
with Il most lavish hand, making
p1insciy bequcsts to his relatives and
friends. 1t was not long ago that be
presented to his sister, Mrs. Judge
Hilton, broWnstone front house up
town, for which he paid $780, 900. To
day he is compelled to make ever all
his property to Commodore Wander
bilt, to insure the latter : sssairst losses
brought OH by his own speculations.
Daniel Drew, who has operated SO
largely III years gone by, has been (so
report s;,ss) wiped out. Richard Schell,
one of the recognized bulls for years,
has gone under. Stockwell, the noted
Pacific Mail manipulation, has collapsed.
John Stewart, king-pin in the specu-
lative ring, has been, according to re-
port, cleaned out. And so | might
continue to name one heavy speculator
after another thai has been swept ull-
der by the present financial storm.
The withdrawal of these men from the
speculative mart takes large schools of
smaller fish who have been accustomed
to follow in their wake, and have been
crippled along with them. Asa result,
the street is pretty well crippled of
spectators, and the brokers predict
that there will be little or NO specula-
ton until an entirely new set of men
make their appearance in the market.

mE. THOMAS aNs DAVIS of Gaiifor-
MIA ought to turn his attention to pros
pccting for the precioEs metals as he
is better than a witch hazel at finding
treasure. In October last, as nc was
going to his home from San Diego, he
found on the way the treasure box of
Wells, Fargo s. Co., wliichehad either
been lost from the stage or removed
by robbers who meant to return and
open it. Mr.. Davis placed the safe in
his wagon, carried it home, and stood
guard over it all night for fear of
thieves, and the next day carried it
into San Diego, where he delivered it
to the express agent with a bill of 80
for his services. The bill was promptly
honored and subsequently Wells, Far
go s. Co. sent to the finder a costly
gold watch and chain. The publica-
ton OF these facts has reminded the
Cleveland Herald that in 1910 the
same Mr.. Davis, then a resident of
Ohio, while he was out shooting found
a wallet in which was contained the
years taxes of Huron county in bank
bills, which the treasurer had dropped
while on his way to deposit them at
the county seat. What amount Of cash
and other yalueables Mr.. Davis found
living around loose between 1910 and
his recent find in California has never
been recorded.

EX-SENATOR FooTE, having been
engaged in four duels, and having
more than once "winged his man, as
well as been perforated here and there
himself, has finally arrived at the
conclusion that tho practice is open to
objection. The Senator was, in truth,
one of the neatest hands in those af-
fairs that the South has produced; but
at present he does not think it the
correct thing to go about making holes
in people. As to his personal exam
pie in dueling, he says: II had the
misfortune twice to be challenged to
the field of honor; in two other in
stances I was foolish enough to be the
challenging party. On the first occa-
sion, in 1928, I was shot in the shoul-
der by one of the celebrated dueling
pistols of General Jackson, borrowed
by my antagonist from the venerable
hero of the Hermitage, who, by the
way had certainly no hand in instigat-
ing this duel, and who lived and died

a Rushing Grain Trade.

Never since Corinne w2s but vil.
Ilage Of tents, has trade on North Side
fourished as it now does. During the
present season new and profitable Ell
ternrises have sprung up, firms which
heretofore found it hard to make &C
counts balance, find their bank &C
counts swelling; grain Of all kinds
lis pouring in quantities heretofore
hardly dreamed Of, business asil trasf-
fic is flush, and business men generally
buoyant and happy. Heretofore grain
was but a trivial matter-this year it
has assumed grander proportions and
forINs a chief feature. At least six
different firms deal extensively in it,
and a large number End it profitable
to invest on a smaller basis. It is es-
timated that at least ten times the
amount of grain has flowed in this
year over that Of any previous year.
We refer not to the car loads of grain
which pass over the Utah Northern.
Enterprising parties at Logan daily
make such shipments, and we take
pleasure in chronicling the same
What we now particularly refer to is
the number of teams which haul in
heavy loads from North String. The
bull teams which haul in heavy loads
from Cache Valley, and the long lines
of Montana freighters returning from
the north, who stop at Malad and load
up with the produce Of that highly
fertile valley. From Malad valley
alone the amount of grain swells to
magnificent proportions.
An idea of the grain business can
be formed from the fact that one par
ty loaded ten Central Pacific cars, and
to-day called for fifteen more. Every
vacant room and shed on North Side
has been turned into grane1y or
storage room by the enterprising par
ties who take in the grain fastef than
the G. r. company can furnish cars
for shipment.

The PRECIOUS METALs.-Since
the year 1848, when gold was first
discovered in California, that State
has produced an aggregate of 81 $780,
100000 worth Of the precious metal
In the year named the yield was $3,.
100000, and in 1858, the year in which
the greatest yield occurred, the pro
duct was $68,Oe0,0oO. Between 1865
and 1872 the average annual yield was
about s60,00O,O00, with no apprecia-
BILE evidence Of reduction. In Nevada
the two great mines known as the
Belcher and Grown Point, situated ON
the Comstock lead, yielded up to Sep
tember 1st of this year, over s26, ,0O0,-

stockholders in dividends of more
than 81, 100000. The Belcher mine
commenced to yield in 1868, and the
Crown Point in 1866. During last
April and May these mines produced
an average of sS1, 900 per day, and
with this enormous yield the Com
stock mines show no signs of becom-

THERE is a fearful fight going on
between the sheep and cattle men Of
Colorado. The cattle men claim that
sheep destroy the range; that they are
a nuisance, and have no right on the
public lands. The cattle men some
time since killed a number of sheep
belonging to a herd in the neighbor-
hood Of their herds, and the sheep
men retaliated by killing one of tbs
cattle herders; and from this, war was
declared between the two parties all
over the Territory. The officers and
public seem afraid to take sides OF
make any arrests. Colorado wants
both cattle and sheep, and would like
to fraternize the warning parties and
encourage the raising of both cattle
and sheep. But the impression is, one
or the two must succumb, as both can
not prosper in the same locality.
