can Republic holds first place, producing

tralasia. .$55.GS4, 1S2, and Russia, $23,
245, TG3.
There was notable increase in the
production of gold in the world during
1897 over 1896. The United States in
creased S4,275,000: the South African
Republic made the remarkable gain of
$1,000, 1872: Australasia increased S10,-
502 2i9, and Russia S1,709,9T0.
The United States produced during the
year 53.S60,00O fine ounces of silver.
and Mexico IS, 903. 1870 fine ounces. a de-

The time will come when California
slate quarries will add an important item
to the yearly record of the States mine
raj production. Its slate deposits have
been but little prospected or exploited,
but II is known that there are immense
deposits of the finest quality for roofing.
They are generally away from means of
economical transportation, the local de-
mand is not great and the competition
from Eastern quarries leaves but small
chance for profit to quarT1es favorably
situated.
The only locality in which slate has
been quarried in commercial scale SO
far is in FL Dorado County, where within
a few years four quarries have been
worked on q not very extensive scale, but
more regularly or permanently. In 1895
the total value of the product was about
$4,000.
Now, with the early coming Of the busi-
ness and mining revival the slate business
steps to the front again with the reopen
ing Of the biggest quarry which has been
developed 50 far. The Placerville Nugget
says:
1.-THE Strahley slate quarry at Kelsey,
which has been closed for the past four
years, will be opened up again In Few
days. This is one of the largest and
richest quarries in the State, but on ac-
count of lack of harmony has not been
worked lately. A number of San Fran

This ought to be good news. The value
! of the slate interests Of this county can
| hardly be estimated. This active DE-
! velopment means just as much to the
county as the development of our gold
