MINING STATISTICS OF COUNTIES.

The Mint Bureau of the Treasury
Department has authorized tht. Super
intendent Of the Mint in San Francis
co to collect statistics OF the pro,luc-
tion of the precious metals in the
States and Territories of this coast.
In accordance with this authority.
circulars asking for information will
be sent to every incorporated and
private mine; to Wells, Fargo & Co. IS
agents and to prominent merchants
in mining localities for estimates of
the production of the Chinese, small
producers by arastras, the pan, etc.,
by which nears it is hoped To receive
returns of the entire production.
Circulars are sent from the mint
every six months-Jan. lst and
July lst-far the reason that the pro-
dnction of tie government fiscel year
which ends june 3Otb is six months
each of two ye7rs
The productions will be classified
as to the manner or mode of produc-
whether argentiferons, lead ora,
vein quartz, drift, placer. or hydrau-
lie, etc. But what will he of most
advantage to every country will be
the publication for each fiscal year of
the production OF the precious metals
for each conntry--only, however, in
the aggregate or the totala. Indiyid
nal returns will not be published, and
are seen by no one hnt the Su2erin-
tendent aud his assistant, the stati.
tician in charge, by whom any con
munication relative to the production,
of a mine will be safely guarded.
This publication of the Yield nv
counties will be- of benefit in attrac-
ting the attention of men of means
who are each week arriving in San
Francisco from all partr of the world.
and who are otten imbned with the
desire to invest in mining propert w.
of which We have SO mu sh awaiting
the a'lvent of capital-and who will
naturally look for statistics of the
production of gold and silver, and
will in many instances go to those To-
calities known to be productive.
They can by this means often be
induced to invest, and will thus help
develop the main industry which has
been the means OF making US noted |

The DEADLOCK.

About six weeks ago when Mr..

tor, little did he think there would
be any hesitancy on the part of the
New York Legislature in returning
him. So confident was he of it. tha,
abont the time his resignation was
accepted he indirectly iutimaied
to some ofihe anxious inqnirers at
that times hat be did not wish 10 be

New York, he first appeared very in
different about reelection. But he
soon found that difficulty was ahead
and became indignant because repub-

The Republican State Committee oi

subscribe literally to the campaign
against the law, and the Republican
committee will doubtless be able TO
point TO surprising gains at the polls
as a vindication Of their action. On
the other hand, the passa .e of pro

evidence of how grievous is the curse
of the liqnor traffic in North Car

rally to its support are precisely those
who are most demoralized by the low
groggeries which exist in such profu-
sion throughout the State. While
fully recognizing the fact that pro

which begins at the wrong end, it is
not calculated to reassure those who
believe in the perpetuity of existing
