There are no items of interest outside
of politics just now. Everybody is
waiting until after election to commence
operations. Teamsters don't care
about starting out except for short dis.
tances. aud miners out of work would
scarcely accepta job until the election
is over. There are only few candi.
dates in town. the most of the local as p.
pirants for Office being off in outside
precincts interviewing voters. and en-
deavoring to make them stand in :"
This is unpleasant and expensive for
baskeepers, who have to "set 'em up"
for the boys without any coin being in
sight, every once-in awhile to keep up
appearances. The topic of converse.
ton everywhere is politics. and moth

A HEAVY JUDO MeNr.
How Interest Accommodates When
Compounded.

How Interest Accommodates When
Compounded.
The following, which shows how
compound interest accomulates, we
find in the San Francisco papers.
In 1854, VIM Hood loaned Geo. S.
Walker 81 $50. for which he took u
prommissory note. which was to bear
interest at the rate Ut three per cent
per mouth. compound interest AS
security for the note a mortgage was
given on some land In Santa Clara
county, where Walker then lived. No
interest was ever paid gu the note. and
before its maturity Walker had left the
State for Mexico. where he took up his
permanent residence A few months
ago, however, he returned on visit to
this city. aud then suit Was brought
against him to recover on the note.
On computing the interest. it Was
found that, added to the principal. the
amount due was SO. 492, 9J6 65, tor
which Judge Morrison yesterday rem
dered judgment. it is believed Walker
has returned to Mexico.
