CHINESE SUPERSTITION.

A Foochow paper says: A very
curious case, illustrative of the gross
superstition of our Celestial neigh
bors, came to our notice lately. The
story as related to us is this: There
is Joss house In the city where the
natives go to chin-chin when they
want to be revenged on their ene-
mics, as the Josses of this temple are
supposed to cause instant death or to
do any other harm which the prayerful
one wishes to be inflicted on his fell
low creature. After the death of the
Tartar General information reached
the ear of the Viceroy that it was be-
lieved by the gentry that the Tarter-
General was the victim OF this joss,
the idea arising, no doubt, from his
sudden death, which is still consid-
cred mysterious IN the city. The
Viceroy at once demanded full infor-
nation from his subordinates about
these bad-hearted Josses, and gave
orders to have them at once arrested
and punished. A Tartar was COM
missloned to see the order properly
carried out, so armed with the Vice
roy's warrant he went to the Joss
house and had some Josses arrested! !!
Our readers will please understand
that these same Josses are made of
wood, and are about five feet high.
Before they were brought into the
presence of the Taotai, their eyes
were put out, under the belief that
this would prevent the Josses seeing
who was their Judge, and therefore
the Taotai will not be troubled bv
them, when 1t comes to his turn to
join their company in realms else
where. After a full investigation
concerning their deeds, a report OF
the case was sent to the Viceroy
who at once gave orders to have the
Josses beheaded and cast into q
pond, and to have the doors of the
Joss house sealed up forever.

A VOTE was taken last Saturday
in this school district on the question
of levying tax of ten mills on the
dollar for the purpose of raising
money to build a new school house.
The vote stood four for the tax and
48 against. This district is sadly in
need of good school house. There
is no question about that. But the
taxpayers thought it would be better
to expend small amount in making
the old school house more comforta-
BILE than to build new one at the
present time. The proposed tax
would come rather heavy, and all at
once. When the people do conclude
that new school house is an abso-
lutte necessity, the better way would
be to issue bonds, and the debt could
be SO gradually liquidated as not to be
felt. This election, although very
one-sided, will no doubt result in
something being done to provide for
the comfort of the school children
The old building, with single walls, is
like a bake-oven in summer and a
barn in winter. This election in re-
gard to levying tax for new build
ing has started an agitation Of the
question, which may cause change
of views that will crystalize into a
determination to construct a brick
school house that will be a credit to
the district, but the money will not
be raised in the manner recently
proposed. Tax payers do not favor
the idea of being called upon to pun
gle the full amount necessary all at
once. The issuing of bonds and a
gradual liquidation is the only plan
that can meet with favorable consid-
Grafton. Another objection to the
levying of the tax proposed by the
trustees Is the strong probability that
Banner and Graham, now in this dis
trict, will each have district of its
own next year. They did not con-
slider it right to tax those places for
the benefit of this. They would de-
rive no benefit from the tax they
would be compelled to pay.

SEVERAL of the young nimrods of
this place have been out In the noun
tains in search of venison, but did
not meet with good luck. 1t is plain
that no venison will be brought to
town until the prophet and sooth-
sayer of the WORLD goes out. We
will take a solemn oath that we will
meet venison and he'll be ours, and
will get him without sailing his tail.

Isn't it strange what a wonderful
drop a mine will take in the estlma-
tion(?) of a miner after he gets his
discharge. 1t sinks from big bo-
nanza down clean out of sight into
the very depths of worthlessness or
suddenly dissolves into utter moth
ingness? 1t is best not to take too
much stock in the statements of a
man who is overly enthusiastic in his
denunciations of mine and the COM
pany operating it. He generally has
some spite to crafty, and hopes, with
an overcoming, all-absorbing, burn
ing hope, for failure, and this nurs-
ed and cultivated hope and desire
shapes his vindictive denunciation Of
the company and property, but work
will go ahead just the same.

The wealth of the United States IN
1860 was sixteen thousand millions,
one half of which was destroyed during
the civil war. In June, 1887, our
wealth touched the imperial figures
of sixty thousand millions, earning
seven millions each day. In 1860 the
wealth of the United States was S415
per capita; in 1887, $1,000 per capita.
In these years of protection the
United States has earned over one
half of the sum added to the worlds
wealth during that time. We nearly
equal Great Britain in production of
iron, and excel her in the production
of steel. In 1860 manufactures in
the United States amounted to
s1,SO0,00O,000; in 1887 to s7,000,-
100000. Our total industries now
amount to s11,000,000,000. The
Western States manufactured nearly
as much in 1887 as the whole country
in 1860. The Southern States alone
now make 10 per cent more plg-iron
than was made in the United States
in 1860. The annual product of the
United States exceeds that of Eng
land by more than one-half,

Mr.. BRAoY, placer miner in the
new district down on More creek, has
located the old Black diggings, on
the north side of Thorn creek, near
the old stage road. He has been
prospecting the cement of the dump,
and finds that it will pay to work.
This cement has Stacked and can now
be easily worked. The ditch, which
takes water from Thorn creek, is
about ten miles long, but will not
need much repairing. Mr.. Brady
thinks he can put it in good condi-
ton for $500 or s400. He expects
to repair the ditch this fall. This
claim was worked by w. w. Black
in 1864.

PocATELLo's freight and transfer
depot was destroyed by fire the other
day, says the Reporter. The loss of
the company on building and cars is
variously estimated at from $1,000
to $4,000. Loss on freight hard to
estimate, but will reach $4,000 to
$4,000. Construction on new and
larger building and transfer facilities
began before the burnt wreck quit
smoking.

"Resolued, That we point with pride
and pleasure to the able and brilliant
record of our Delegate in Congress

ton of our mining industry, to secure
appropriations for irrigation and 9TH

GRAHAM NOTES.

." PrlFate conveyance, with our
better half and our two dauoh.
ters, Amelia and Emma, and Miss
Ida Stahl and George Bidwell
with a complete camping outfit
we arrived at Graham on the even.
ing OF the 23d, and found the
town quite lively. A ball being on
hand, of course the younger half Of
our company attended, as they also
did another party three evenings later,
and give the Grahamites much praise
for getting up good parties.
The second day there we strolled
around, greeting friends, looking
around, and took a climb up the
winding pack trail to the Julia and
Overland mines, which are one mile
in a straight line from the quartz
mill and half the distance being at an
angle of As degrees-the mines 1000
feet higher than the mill Here we
met Col. Graham, who was busy as
he could be preparing for the coming
winter. He showed US all around
the mines near the surface and then
took us to the boarding house (which
is overseen by Mrs. Leroy ThomasJ.
Here fifty men sat down to as good a
dinner as can be had in any of the
towns of Boise county. Col. Graham
told US of his trials and hardships in
getting his camp opened and how
Matt Graham, Jr., found the Julia
mine (which was named after his
sister, who now lives on the ground).
After relating his experiences and
dinner over, the Colonel turned US
over to Steve James, foreman of the
mine, who showed US through all the
mines that were working preparatory
to stopping, and only taking out ore
in running tunnels, adits, chutes
and manways. The ore on the dump
looks well. The stations of the tram
way are all up, and the wire rope,
which is nearl y mile long, was ready
to lay up on the pulleys, and was
placed on its course in two days with
horses. This tramway is intended to
send the ore from the mine to the
mill, and also take up all the sup
plies, timbers, wood, and cages to
carry the miners up and down will
be put on. This piece of work is
engineered oy Arthur Wood, and is
done in a first class manner.
Now, as for the mill, 1t is the finest
piece of work of the kind we have
seen on the Pacific coast. Mr. Ma
han, the architecht, took us all
through this structure, which is near
ing completion, and took pains to
explain everything in detail, which
we will give hereafter.
Taking it all in all Graham has a
bright outlook, and we hope the two
Matt Graham's and the company may
make millions, as such enterprise de-
serves. 1t is our belief that there is
not another man on the Pacific coast
that could accomplish what Col. Matt
Graham has in the same length OF
time.
After four days stay around the
Silver Mountain district we started
on our way home, all pleased with
what we saw.
The wagon road, which Nose
Kempner built by contract from Colo
Hill to Graham is good one-muct
better than we expected to see. Any
teams that can get to the junction
can go through to Silver Mountain
J. D. Mcmahon is erecting a fine

If WE KEEP ON.

1t is not always easy to draw the
line precisely where the government
should stop and private enterprise
begin. To apply the correct rule of
one country to another in this re-
gard is sometimes an error. 1t may
be accepted, however, as a general
rule, that the government of a new
country is justified in taking the
lead in many matters which in an
old country would be better left to
private enterprise. 1t may also be
accepted as a general rule that it is
the duty of the government in all
matters of private nature to avoid
coming into competition with pri-
vate individuals or placing an en-
barge on private enterprise. 1t is a
question whether the Hawaiian Gov
ernment has not been sometimes
called upon to undertake duties
which in strictly polite and econo-
mic sense are entirely beyond the
range of It's supervision. There is,
we think, too strong a tendency
