We do not like The working of the
present road law. Tie Commissioner
sticks up little written notice, which
many cannot read and very few ever
see, and very soon an officer comes to
collect the tax, and collects fifty cents
cost for himself. Even if the road tax
is only live or ten cents, fifty cents is
added for cost, and the poor fellow, per
haps, never knew he had any road tax
to pay. 1t seems to US it would be bet

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MINES.

Large Bullion Production.

Hon. John Lawshe, who is
largely interested in Southern
California mines, gave US yestcr.
day some very pleasant notes OF
the mining situation In this Sec
ton He is himself largely con-
csrned, Pscuniarily, Ia the Pima
cate district, which IL located due
south from Cotton, in San
Diego county. Mr.. LAwshe Is
quite satisfied with the develop.
msnt Of his swB and other claims
In that district thus far, and hope
full of the Immediate future. He
gives US glowing accounts of the
Calico and other Districts, in which
he Is net interested to the extent
of dollar. OF the Watsrman
mine he says that about $1,000
weekly 10 beisg produced from the
rich streak, which is narrow and
goes about S200 to the ton. Mr..
Waterman 10 allowing the lew

sign of working 1t when improved
railway facilities, and the applica-
tion of crude petroleum as fuel,
shall materially reduce the ex-
penses OF mining. Ivanpab, also,
ia looming up prominently. Mr..
Lawshe regards the most promising
mineral location thus far discov-
cred ia Southern California to be
that of the Providence Mountain,
which lies off on the Desert, some
distance from Dos Palmas. This
property was lately purchased by
Mr.. Gillstte as the representative
Of heavy capitalists, the syndicate
paying $2o0, 900 for two-thirds
Of the claim. On the dump,
Is the result of the aver
age of eleven hundred differ
eRt assays, there is ore to the value
of SITE, 600, taken from this Pr0vi,
dencs Mountain mine. In oonelu-
sion, Mr.. Lawshe tells us that both
Holeomb valley and Resting
Springs are again looking II I,
some rem arkable new discoveries
having been made in both Sec
lions, whose owners only hesitate
to develop them on account of the
bad success which attended the
previous introduction OF capital in
Holcomb valley and at Resting
Springs. There can be no dou BIT
that improved transportation ia
cilitiss will put q better face even
upon these districts. We are glad
to be able to record the fact that
Southern California promises to
develop very shortly as a respecta-
BILE producer of bullion.
