WOOD DRIVERS MEETING A.
MONITOR.
The Shrinkage Question. etc


Now that the season is opening for the
business of river driving. many peril.
nent lateral question having reference
thereto, is in order. 1t is evident from
the following that at one end or the
other of the drive, or on the route OF
the same, there is either great careless
ness in measurement or looseness In the
manner of driving, or something else
that needs correcting. in order that fair
dealing may be ensured. The Alpine
County Miner of Nay 9 has the follow
ing report of some proceedings having
reference to this matter-which, by the
way, We should like to have ventilated
by any of our Empire friends competent
to treat of the subject:
For long time back there has been a
very emphatic expression Of dlssa:isfac-
ton among wood bosses in this county.
The result of last years drive showed
loss or 'shrinkaSe' of about l3 per
cent. Of the amount put into the river
here. This was deemed by wood own
ers generally to be from two and half
to three times as much loss as is legiti-
mate, and visions of shenanigan from
some source were aroused in the minds
of those interested. Measures we're
proposed and, at least, attempted to be
acted upon to the end of assuring them
that this summers drive would be con-
Quoted on the square. The plan was to
appoint three impartial and disintsrested
men to measure the wood before being
put into the river, to supervise the drive
to its destination, see it banked at En-
pire, again measure it, and apportion
the loss equally to the several owners.
To carry into execution this programme,
last Saturday evening large meeting Of
wood men from all parts of the county
convened at Collins Hall, in this place,
in pursuance Of the object sought to be
attained. A chairman and the usual
machinery of Conventions was put in
place, and things set in motion, but they
didn't go much. Near a hundred men
after a heated discussion of the particu-
lar object of the meeting, came together
in council, apparently without any clear
notion of what they intended to do,
AhCtuou, anu ~Atuouh HCdu VI
tail, and consequently the whole thing
resulted In quite broad farce. The
meeting then adjourned and the mem
beers separated and went their several
ways; and it is safe to say no half-dozen
of them are of the same opinion as to
the results of the conference, or whether
it accomplished anything, and if it did,
whether it is binding upon those who
took part in the proceedings. On the
street Saturday night charges were rife
that ring" had captured the whole
concern, and that they had all been hoo
doo'd. The gentlemen who were APP
pointed measurers and guardians of the.
drive, or who desired to be, or who
think that they were-we can't tell
which are Cy. Coleman, Al. Grover,
and Mr. Bordwell of Carson.-Alpine
