of wagons loaded with concentrations

were quite plentiful along the road, all

shaps. with about 10000 bushels of
charcoal and 800 tons of ore on the
dumps near the furnace. About twenty
tons of bullion had been shipped by the
railroad teams few days previous. and
several tons were in front of the furnace
awaiting shipment. Charcoal and ore
teams were arriving pretty regularly, and
taken altogether, things around town
looked pretty busy. The town has not
grown much since We were there in JAN

style four saloons 1.-THE principal one of

COOP ADVICE. -Heretofor the station
cry and printing for most Of our county
officials has been purchased In Cali
fornia. The prices charged were gener-
ally exhorbitant, and the work of very
inferior quality. There is no good rea-

hoped that all OF the counties will do
likewise.
