STOCKTON, CAL, Oct. IS-Ac-
cording to information received by DR..
RuggIes of this city, president of the
State Board of Health, Texas is endeav-
oring to save herself from yellow fever at
the expense of California. In view of
this fact the physician has authorized
the appointment of an inspector to ex-
anime all passengers coming into this
STATE from Texas, and that official is now
on his way to the border
The man who is to inspect incomers
from Texas is DR.. Price of Cotton, San
Bernardino County. He is the man
whom DR.. RuggIes and DR.. Hill of San
Diego agreed upon, and the State Board
\Beard of Health left the matter entirely
in their hands.
1t was agreed between Drs. RuggIes
and Hill couple of weeks ago that there
was no need of appointing an inspector
until the yellow fever had spread into
Texas, but that as soon as any cases
were reported from that State DR.. Price
should be sent to the border Immediately
to examine all passengers coming into
California from that direction.
Last week the president of the board
received a telegram from Cotton, signed
by some one whom he did not know,
urging the board to take immediate action
to keep the yellow fever out of the State
DR.. Ruggles sent a reply, in which he
told OF the agreement that had been made
between himself and DR.. Hill. Since then
he has received a communication, signed
by a number of officials of Cotton and
other prominent people of that vicinity,
stating that they know, of their own
knowledge, that free transportation is be-
ing given by the authorities through Texas
from Louisiana to California, in order that
parsons who have been exposed to the dis
ease may not stop over in Texas and
. spread the yellow fever there.
p The president of the State board has
sent this letter to DR.. Hill, together with
the authorization, as far as he is con-
cerned, for the appointment of an inspec-
tor. The inspector will have power to de-
tain suspected cases.

Lyman Garfield called at our off
ice this week and presented us with
a small sample of ore from the Rice
Bros, at State Line District, which
was taken out from between $50 to
200 feet below the Apex on top Of
The mountain. The ore samples
about $1,000 per ton in gold, and we
believe will eventually be big bo-
nanza. They have run a tunnel
into the mine 16I feet, and work is
still progressing very favorably.
There is large amount of ore in
this vicinity but everything of
value has been located. A
shipment of ore was made to
Salt Lake, recently, from the Ophir
Mine, at State Line District, which
is owned by Clark Brothers, John C.
Lynch and Mike Sullivan, but we
failed to learn the amount. All
that State Line needs now to
make things lively, is custom mill
SO that the ore can be worked near
the mines and save the expense of
shipping.
