Tulare Register: Bad legislation is
not so much the result of dishonesty as
that it is simply a mistake, and about
the greatest mistakes in legislation are
about the most popular. Charlatans
and wild-eyed theorists excite popular
demands among the people, and expert
ments are tried which result disastrous
ly. and the error is charged to the un-
holy Vaccinations of professional poll

WASHINGTON, May 15.-The Senate
Committee on Finance has under con-

which proposes TO countervaiI against

producers of that country to send sugar
to this country and compete successful
~ with the producers here. The been
sugar producers are up in arms over the
matter, and hundreds of kilograms have
been received by members Of both
houses of Congress, urging speedy act
ion to meet that of the German Govern
ment. So persistent are those who are
urging the proposed legislation that it
may be the Finance Committee will
seek 10 get the Perkins measure or
some bill akin to it passed before the
close of the present session

" in Paris, where more than 90 per
cent of the original emission OF $29f;-
600 900 is now held.
The object of French buyers IN seek

to be to obtain from Spain direct inter

syndicate in every custom house on the
island to see that these be honestly ad-

for miners. Wages are out of all proper
ton to the price of living. Miners receive
at the most $40 per week, and board costs
from $12 so to S15. The price of water
varies from 10 to 25 cents gallon; two
pound can of fruit is from so to 80 cents;
-four about $3.50 per ton, or SIT so per 100
pounds; horse feed from 16 to 20 cents per
pound; quart bottle of beer is 81; and
every thing else sells at outrageous prices.
The majority of the miners are boarding
themselves the best way they can SO as to
save enough money to take them out OF
the country.
The rivers and water sources in the in
terror OF the State are running very low
and In consequence greatly crippling the
work OF mills, forcing the suspension OF
many Not for years has there been such
q scarcity of water. As it is an Ill wind
that blows nobody good, the river-bar
mines are reaping the benefit.
The Grass Valley Union says: Twenty
stamps of the Providence will be in fine
repair and started up this morning to
crush while the remaining twenty will be
overhauled. Superintendent Mckinley is
doing the work in a thoroughly sys-
tematic manner and says that all the
stamps will be dropping again in
months time. The old mill has stood for
many years and was badly in need of re-
pairs.
We see by the Grass Valley Tidings that
the chlorination works of the Providence
burned down on the morning of the Goth.
The plant was one of the best equipped
and most expensive in the district and is
total loss. 1t was only by the hardest
kind of work that the fortv-stamp mill
was saved.
The Aspen (Colo.) Times says a strike
was made in Gold Bug and Florence lodes
in independence Pass District, on the line
of Pitkin and Lake counties. The ore
body shows returns as high as $340 to the
ton in gold.
The Robinson gold mine in Transvaal
has increased its output from II, 821 ounces
in January to 20.343 ounces in June, the
value according to the usual value of Wit
watersrand bullion making the gross earn
ings of the mine for June about $343, 900,
the ore averaging about one ounce to the
ton.
NJ. Moissan, the French chemist, has
found out thatif iron is saturated with car
bon at the high temperatures of the electric
furnace, some of the carbon, in cooling,
will separate in the form OF true diamond.
M. Rossel has shown that hard steel,
owing to the methods of manufacture,
contains diamonds minute crystals being
found when the steel is dissolved by acids.
The production of precious metals in
British Columbia is increasing rapidly.
The official returns show that in 1894 the
aggregate value of precious metals mined
in the province was ST. 900, 900. Last year
the value was S., OBS, ,375, and this year the
output will be greater, judg ging from the
three months ending July 25. when the es-
timated value of gold smelted and shipped
was 81. 100000.
