Crookedness In the Ophir.

Colonel Weller has made an i'm
portant strike in Ohpir, an immense
bonanza in fact, but the dips, spurs
aud angles all show orookedness and
the drifts, cross cuts and winzes de-
velop only large body of fraud.
Sam. Curtis was suspended and ST.
perindent Fl lrdy Of the Imperi Il
placed 10 charge, with or iers to no.
tify all miners who hid got into the
Ophir through Mrs. Cooper's inAu-
ence that they must change their
lodging or leave the mine.
Colonel Weller found the accounts
very loosely kept, several Of the en-
plpyes having been allowed to over
draw their accounts. The colored
servant of Sam Curtis was on the
payroll as IA miner, at 81 day, and
had overdrawn $3.50. 1t was found
that George f. Ford, chief account
ant, had a private contract with HI
outside party for the working Of ore
from the old Ophir works ON mutual
account, and had also been 10 the
habit of buying silver to pay the mi
ners and pccketing the percentage.
The deficit in Ford's accounts was
81 1927 05, and Colonel Weller pro-
cured his arrest ON charge of en-
bezzlement.
Last February the Board of Trus-
tees discovered that Curtis had OVER
drawn his account by $4,000. He
said that he had lost the money in
stocks, but was willing to make it
good. His salary from the Savage
was $500 a month, from the Ophir
$500, from the Mexican $50, and
from the Union Con. $3.50. He was
willing t. live on $500 per month
aud pay $1,000 to the Ophir Compa-
ny until the amount of bis defalca-
ton was made good. This arrange
ment was agreed to and during A pril,
May and June he paid $1,000 per
mouth. In addition to this he had
81 back-pay due hIm by the
Mexican Company, which was also
credited TO his account, So that alto.
getlier he paid $500. But while he
paid in that amount in the San Fran
cisco Office he "knocked down" up
here 1904 GO, SO that the original
sum has been reduced only $1,705 "a.
Curtis LETT for San Francisco Wednes-
day night, to try and raise the money
to make good his deficit, and it he
cannot do that, the chances are that
he will be arrested.

One of the greatest trials OF the
newspaper profession is that its
members are compelled to see more
of the shams of the world than any
other profession. Through every
newspaper office, day after day. go
all the weaknesses OF the world; all
the vanities that want to be pulled;
all the mistakes that want to be cor
rected; all the dull speakers who
want to be eloquent; all the mean
ness that wants to get its wares no.
ticed gratis in the editorial columns;
all the men who want to be set right
who were never right; all the crack
ed Drained philosophers with stories
as long a. their hair; and as gloomy
as their finger nails in mourning
because Of want of sosp--all the
bores who come to stay Ave minutes
and talk FIVE hours.
Through the editorial and re-
portorial rooms, all the follies and
shams of the world are seen day after
day, and the temptation il to be-
lieve in neither God, man nor wo.
man. 1t is no surprise to me that
in this profession there are some
skeptical men; I only wonder that
journalists believe anything.-[De
Witt TalInage.

ALL confess the danger Of continu-
ing this immigration of Mongolians,
says the Enterprise. Ali can see that,
il it is not stopped this year or next,
or some time not far away, there will
come an uprising which will cover
the coast witt, shame and blood.
Why not make one determined eff,rt
to peaceably stop the evil and 70
avert the tremendous danger2 1t
strikes us that committee OF gentle
men could be found in any town on
this coast who could in day make
the changes in the Burlingame treaty
necessary to secure peace to this
coast. If such a document could lie
prepared and presented to Congress
as demand from tins coast it " ,uld,
we are sure, prevail. And we do not
believe the Chinese government
would hesitate moment To ratify it.
As it is, so long as Congressman ex-
pend their breath to argue the evils
of Chinese Immigration, it amounts
to nothing The thing to do is to pre-
pare, in come-at-able shape. de-
mand of what the people Of the coast
want, and press that. We believe it
would succeed, and that unless some
thing of the kind is speedily urged
there will be trouble here such as
was never seen before.

They vert north at the outbreak OF

wagons, are too heavy for active
service in the mountains, and it was
