TIE Placer COUNTY IRON n1sEs.

A correspondent of the RECORD UNION,
writing from Clipper Gap, Placer county,
says few days ago he made trip to the
famous iron mines located at Hotaling, about
four miles from Clipper Gap. The works
and mines are owned by the California Iron
and Steel Company, and are one of the lead
ing industries of Placer county. Less than q
year ago the work., together with large
stock of charcoal, were destroyed by fire.
The company shortly afserward set forcs Of
men at work to construct new works. The
supervision of the construction of the new
works, together with their operation, is in
the hands of U. Seely, who kindly does all in
his power to explsia the workings of the mines
and the process of reducing the ore to visitors
who call there. At present there are
but seventy men employed at the place.
This force will be increased shortly to about
seventy more. The various departments are
10 charge of foremen who are skilled apd ex.
perienced In their respective duties. The
engineering department is under the control
OF John ID. Nash, as chief, with Fred Stocks
as assistant. n. Rider operates the foundry,
whne the supervision Of the blscksmithing
department. is In charge Of ". B. Hiper. A,
ID. smith superintends the charcoal interests.
Inc capacity OK the works az present are
thirty tons dsy. Three thousand bnsbels
OF charcoal are used each twenty.four boprs
There are now 100000 tons of Gre ready m
be smelted, ard the sheds contain 90 O00
bushels of charcoal. Mr.. Smith intends ~
burn, in addition to the present quantity
1000, 600 bushels for next winter. They have
also about 4, 600 tons of lime stored on the
ground, which is used as flux in the s,neltipe
process.
The mines are located about 100 yards from
the furnace. James Richards is the Superin.
tendent of Mining. The shaft is now down
to y depth of 100 feet, and . force is at work
extending it rs feet deeper. A great deal of
ore has been extracted from above the pres
emit depth. The vein is about IA feet thick,
and is pronounced by experts to be far above
the average in quslity, making superior
foundry iron. It assays 81 per cent. OF iron,
which is above the average assays Of Penn.
sylvania ore.
The company haye already surveyed for
railroad from the mines to point on the
Central Pacific abous four miles ADORE Au-
burr. II is intended to extend the road
about ten miles back into the hills for the
purpose Of transporting charcoal The
length Of the proposed road from the mlnes
to the Central Pacific Railroad 10 about
three and half miles. The town OF Ho-
falling is named after one of-the mine-cWners,
and is located little northwest OF the
works. 1t is situated in beautiful grove,
and presents cosy. ike appearance; has
school-house and store. The store is owned
by the company, and is under the manage
ment Of L. w. CowleF.

REMEDIES OF NATURE.

the Italian cities that nave largely engaged
In the production OF textile fabrics, con-
sur,ption has become as frequent as in
lancashire. Irrespective of race differences
and special dietetic habits, the habitual
breathing OF vitiated air leads to the de-
velcpment of pulmonary scrofula. And
science has furnished the rationale of that
result. Physiology has demonstrated that
air is gaseous food, ard respiration pro-
cess Of digestion. The atmosphere fur
nishes the raw material of the pulmonary
pabulnm /; at each inspiration the organism
of the lungs imbibes the oxygenous or nu-
tritive principles of the air draught, and
excretes the indigestible elements. By
breathing the same air ever and over again,
khe atmospheric alimsns becomes azotized,
l. e., depleted of its life-sustaining princi-
pie, and therefore unfit to supply the wants
OF the animal economy. The continued
inhalation of such violated air fills the re-
spirasory organs with indigeasible elements,
which gradually accumulate beyond the
dislodging ability of the vital forces, and
at last corrupt the tissue of the cougested
organ and favor the development of para
sites. Consumption is one Of the diseases

by stagnant impurities Of the eirculatory
system, by warm and humid climate, and

not so much to punish railroads by lower
ing rates to non-paying basis as it is to
make joint raid upon the State Treasury
and the railroad pocket.book, and to give
the Governor, who, 1t is feared, may not
fall in readily with the plan, backing suff-
cient to induce him to call an extra session
of the Legislature. All the loud -mouthed
ordinations about railroad outrages and
the crushing tyranny of the railroads, is
sheer nonsense. The very community
where demagogues have commenced to
work up the "boom," more than any
other in the State, has benefited by
railroad building and operation. It
is wealthy and prosperous COM
munity, and largely so because of the
railroad facilities it enjoys bringing it's
products the closest to the best mar
kets. 1t has not suffered, nor does
it suffer, from tyranny on the part
Of anyone. Il enjoys IS cheap transports-
ton to-day as any community at the East
of like population and situation. The
truth is, there never was more silly and
proundIess attempt made than that now
being urged on to compel an arbitrary,
hasty and unreasoning reduction of freights
and fares. Reductions always come just as
commercial needs demand and permit. All
attempts heretofore made anywhere to en-.
force arbitrary reductions, and according to
the Eeifish demands of politicians and
conventions, have proved dismal and dis
astrous failures. If the proposed San Jose
Convention should demand reduction of
a given percentage, and it should be made,
it would be precisely as just and rational
for a second convention, hating railroads
little more, to demand still another reduc.
tion, and soon to the climax Of absurdity.
The very fact that Railroad Commissions
hesitate to make arbitrary and sweeping re-
auctions on lines of transportation should
convince the reasonable that the problem is
one Of too great moment TO be disposed of
in single resolution. As the Colusa San
says; "We know just enough about the
question to know that If will require con-
sumate ability, patience and nerve, to set
tie it so as to do Justice TO ell parties con-
cerned. The Constitution provides that
the Commission shall fix rates of fares and
freights, and il cannot do this without 90.
ing into the minuIie. A resolution is not
fixing, by long jump" The scheme to
keep up the wrecking sentiment has its in
ception in unfairness, jealousy and selfish
hate, and at lis bottom is the scheming
politician who has his own Ak to grind.
Ths transportation companies nave not
been properly bled," according to these
patriots, and all they ask is the opportunity
to apply few more thumb.screws in the
shape of cinch bills.

SANITARY PRECAUTIONS.


The New York Herald calls on the local
authorities, now that the warm season has
opsned, to immediately require all filthy
premises to be cleaned, all pits and drains
ventilated, cleansed, etc. How well this
advice applies to Sacramento we all know.
Time has already been lost To clean out
pits in midsummer is detrimental to the
public heslth-almost as much SO as to
leave them foul. Now is the time to act,
on the principle that an ounce of proven
ton is worth pound Of cure. Not much
is needed here-simpiy an ordinance re-
quiriag all flth-pits, except those. per-
haps, exempted after inspection by the
Health Officer, to be thoroughly cleansed,
before the first of July for instance. Sec.
ordly, to compel all filth. pits to be ven
tilated into high upper air. Third, to re-
guire every drain from house to be fitted
with an escape pipe into high upper air
between ground.trap and the cesspool or
sewer. These are simple requirements,
reasonable. and to neglect thsir enforce
ment i, little short of criminality. They
are the recommendations of the best san.
itarians of the land, and experience has
proved that they prevent disease and save
life. The Trustees should prepare the or
dinaace to-day. OF course the ventilation
of Ah a ae1Vers IL ynuch tn he desired and
the sooner the authorities can see their
way clear TO accomplish it the better.
Those Who shall venture to object on the
ground Of the expense attaching should be
requested to stand few hours over the
grating of sewer msnhole in these hot
dsys. The health of the people and the
sanitary ,epute of the city rise superior to
the question of expense, which, however,
is not great, since our sewers are not very
long nor numerous.

that he has, with his Mexican allies,
