There is space of earth on which we tramp
in our daily walks to and from the treadmill,
under which we are very sure there must be
cavern We know it by the sound. That
sound is hollow, mysterious, reverberatory.
The surface is mere gravel and sand and loan.
Weeds grow there on either side of the path.
Our steps echo under US and we walk over
vast cave, fretted with stalactytites and strewn
with stalagmites. We will not make public
declaration of the geography and topography
of this hollow sounding walk of ours which is
the roof of some cavern neasureless to man"
through which runs some sacred river down
to sunless sea. But if we are consulted by
the scientifcal with view to the instituting
of researches of serious and technical nature
we may possibly divulge what has come to
our knowledge. But this is in no msnner a
hoard whereof he suffers none to share.
A pet secret is precious thing, and
no two can rightly keep it. One of these days
we might want to hide our wealth. Then this
cavern's whereabouts would be bit of knowl
edge to be monopolized. We hope we
are not stating what is improper to reach the
public ear when we state that the new strong
box of this county is too small, big as it is,
for the convenient housing of what silver has
come into the possession of the County Treas |
urer There are some four or five thousand |
dollars of this kind of money-mainly In half |
dollars-and the bulk of it is so considerable
that if it were kept in the County Treasurer's |
safe it would crowd out everything else This
money is secure. 1t is on special deposit in
Wells, Fargo & Co. S vault; but the fact still
remains that so long as this county is without
adequate public buildings it is a wretched
borrower and maker of shifts, and not the
frugal householder and respectable business
concern that it ought to be. Let us have
new Court House and building for the county
officers lust as soon as it is possible to build it.
