Lieutenant Governor Laughton, yes

to bet from 81. 900 to $1,000 that New

car, deliberately took out his pocket
book, and laid out checks to the amount
Of S., 900, and said he would venture

The Lieutenant Governor backed down
from his proposition and retired to the

The Virginia Chronicle says: "Sil-
yer mines never die. From the days
of Cortez, in 1921, down to the begin
ming of this century, and even to the
present time, the Mexican silver mines
have poured forth an unceasing stream
of silver, such as the world has never
seen. 1t is estimated that the value OF
the silver coin and bullion of the COM
try since the conquest, is over IS, ooo,-
O00. 600. and it is well known that some
of the mines have been profitably
worked almost without interruption
from that time to this, and that one OF
them at least is still running out silver
at the rate Of 100000 per year.
California has yielded about 81, lO0,-
900, 600 of gold and silver. Nevada
has turned out something like $780,
600, 0O0-possibly more. If it were all
in dollars it would take every man,
woman and child in Storey county at
least year to count it. Suppose that
all precious metal was silver dollars,
and that each dollar weighed 4l2t
grains, and that Is such dollars would
weigh one pound. and that SO. zoo, 600
year for 30 years has been secured by
the people of the United States, it
would weigh l3l. 250,000 pounds.
Now, let US load this vast amount into
wagons. Allowing 1900 pounds for
each wagon. it would take 43,75
wagons. Allowing SO wagons per mile,
it would make train of wagons 5465
miles long. If the train started from
Virginia City, the leaders would be
drinking in the Colorado river before
the tail-end teams were hitched up"
