a week Of lively voting
Voters last week caused much unne-
cessary trouble to the clerks who count
the ballots by the careless way in which
the bits of parer are prepared for voting.
The ballots are every one counted, re-
corded and carefully filed. In order to
do this they must be cut to a uniform
size. This the voters are requested to
do before casting them. in order not only
TO save the considerable labor 1t entails.
but to facilitate the prompt count Of the
vote. The printed lines around the ballot
is the best guide Cut them clean and do
not turn them in with torn and ragged
edges. Vote them before they are a week
old.

In May following Mrs. Baker married
David K. Batcbelder, in consequence of
which her letters of administration over

JOHN LIKES GOLD.
How Yellow Men Steal
Our Yellow Stuff.
DR.. Chase Gives Some Interesting
Data About the Chinese and
the Gold Mines.

DR.. A. Chase, the well-known physician n
and surgeon, has just returned from trip
TO Sierra County. where he visited many
of the scenes of his early mining triumphs
What impressed the doctor most in his
travels was that everywhere the Chinese
are now working the mines on their own
account.
They have been taught to use the best
methods of mining now," says the doctor,
and in going up and down the mines l saw
none but Mongolians at work running tho
mines entirely on their own hook.
''ln the early days when we had whip
sawed the lumber and brought on the water
land then found that the banks would not
pay moro than SO or S4 a day, we made
haste to sell out to the Chinese for a song
In this way they came 70 learn TO mine on
their own account. When it was too late
we saw that they never ought to have been
permitted to work the mines.
The amount of gold they take out now
never gets into the statistics of the total
output OF the State. 1t does not go
through the express companies, but is sent
directly 10 China. and is smugged out of
the country in the same way that opium
is smuggled in. How much of the yellow
stuff they send home it is impossible 10
find out.
Taking those figures of Collector Quinn,
published in The CALL last Wednesday,
and estimating that one-tenth of all the
Chinese in the State were in the mines for
the last thirty years and that they have
earned, say. 81 75 a day-which is a fair
proposlt!on-we see that since 1860 the
Chinese have taken from our mines the
enormous sum of S141, $50, 900. And this
vast sum has been taken from US without
giving ia return for it any consideration
except the labor expended and po,ltax
of 81 year, sometimes collected and some
times not
while in Sierra County found that
everything tangible had been worked over
and over again by the MongOlians. / was
told of one instance where an abandoned
dump pile had been worked over by the
Chinese to the tune OF several thousand
dollars.
Now. if the Chinese had been kept out
OF the mines this large sum of Sal, 900, 600
would have we'll remunerated white labor.
which is much needed by struggling
mines.

necessary appliances for manufacturing
