The board of supervisors rejected
the appeal of the solid newspaper
fraternity of the county for a revised
schedule of rates for printing and
advertising. The old table has done
service for the past seven years.
1t is probably the only thing in
connection with the county gov
ernment that has stood the test of
time without variableness or shadow
of turning. The printers and pub
fishers, who are supposed to be
versed in such matters, were a unit
in the opinion that changes and ad-
ditions were needed to meet the al
tered conditions, and took the trou-
BILE to get together at the request of
the board and fix up a schedule of
rates, raising some items, lowering
others, and adding some items here
tofore never covered by the price
list, at the same time making it in
telligible as a whole. But the board
without any apparent cause clung
to the worn-out prices, thereby ar
bitrarily telling the print shops that
printing rates are not subject to
change. We have hugged the idea
that it takes two parties to make a
bargain. In this case a deadlock
has been reached, and one side or
the other must take tumble.

FROM OUTSIDE
PRECINCTS
VOLCANO ITEMS.

Business in this little mining town is
looking up and if the signs of the times
are fulfilled, Volcano will again e'er
long be umbered as one of the most
prosperous towns in Amador county.
7. ]. Quinn, our blacksmith, has be-
come famous of late as wagon builder.
He is now completing a light road
wagon for Robert Triggs, which will
be one of the neatest ever sent from his
shop.
Mrs. Hall, one of the pioneer ladies
of our county, is very i'll. Her niece
from San Francisco is now administer
ing to her wants.
Miss Ella Clute returned from San
Francisco last Thursday, after enjoy
ing week of much needed rest. Her
brothers family will visit friends in
Volcano soon.
Lawrence Cuneo, the Sutter Creek
hardware man, has contracted to do
about $3.50 worth of work in town.
DR.. Freiman is kept very busy these
days attending to outside patients.
Within the town limits we are COM
paratively healthy.
Our fun makers have been out of
town for week or so, hence we have
no thrilling events to record.
The reservoir at the Big Elephant
gave way one evening last week, which
has necessitated short delay in put
ting on the night crew.
We understand that the last run at
the Glenn mine yielded about $14 per
ton.
All the gravel claims are running full
blast. Considerable coarse gold has
already been taken out of many of
them.
A few Jackson men are expecting to
do some gravel mining in this section
if satisfactory arrangements can be
made with the owners of the ground.
The claim known as the Treadwell
mine, located five miles west of town
and owned by Messrs. Guiliana and
Nixon, was sold one day last week to
parties from Seattle for $500 cash.
These men had placed prospectors on
the property four months before, and
we're perfectly satisfied with results.
This is a popularity of the mine owners
of this district. They will allow their
claims to be thoroughly inspected.
They take special pride in showing
them to outsiders, and having placed
them at reasonable figure, feel per-
fectly conf1ent that purchasers will
not be disappointed.
The 50th anniversary of the organi-
zation of the Masonic lodge in Volcano
will be appropriately celebrated by
members and friends at Howerton's S
grove, on Tuesday, May 17th. The
occasion will partake of the nature of
basket picnic. Amusements of all
kinds will be INDUCED in, and prizes
given to winners of different contests.
In the evening an interesting program
will be rendered, after which ali Masons
and their wives will be banqueted &.
DIR. A. NJ. Gall of Jackson, will be the
orator of the occasion.

A True Fit.

At the machine works of Garbarini
may be seen an example of a perfect
joint in irOnwork, the results of which
are really astonishing to the man not
versed in such matters. The work
consists of two pieces of cast iron, about
Is inches square, each weighing 81
pounds. One surface of each has been
made perfectly fat, and polished to the
highest degree. When these two pol
ished surfaces are placed together, the
fit is so perfect that all air is excluded,
and the effect is astonishing. When
first placed in contact the upper slab
slips over the polished surface of the
other as if it we're creased. But as
soon as the air is excluded, the two are
glued together as it were. Such is the
strength of the adhesion, that the
upper part may be lifted vertically,
holding the under part with a wise like
grip. 1t requires strong man to even
slide them apart. 1t is claimed if these
polished surfaces were oiled, it would
take pressure of about ton to sep
arate them. The effect is not due to
magnetism or electric attraction, but
is an example of suction through alb
sence of air. 1t is a perfect fit, and
shows the exactness with which work
can be turned out at this establish
ment. 1t is not mere curiosity either,
but is useful instrument as standard
to determine any perfectly fiat surface
that may be required. This work was
done by J. w. Gothic, the expert
machinist.

The republican county committee

The republican county committee
of Calaveras has appointed nine del
egates to the state convention which
meets in Sacramento May 18, and
by resolution has authorized its ap-
pointees to represent the party in
the first congressional and eleventh
assembly district conventions, to
meet at the same time and place. "
This conveys the idea that congress
sional and assembly candidates are
to be selected at the Forthcoming
convention. Haven't our friends
across the river made a slight mis-
take in this matter. No call for the
nomination of congressman has yet
been made, and outside of the action
of the Calaveras committee, nothing g
whatever has been said about an as
sembly district convention. The
delegates from Amador county have
no authority to participate in the
nomination of a congressional or
legislative ticket. 1t is entirely out
of the ordinary procedure to select
these candidates at the first conven-
tion during president tial year. Is
it possible that a scheme is afioat
to force an assembly nomination at
this juncture? The Calaveras dele
cation constitutes one half the
strength of the assembly district
convention. Only one delegate from
another county is needed to con-
summate plan of usurpation of this
character. The situation is extreme
ly delicate. To force a nomination
in this way would be perilous from
party standpoint. No republican
would be under any obligation to
support a candidate whose nomina-
: ton was brought about by such de-
vious methods. Republicans are
jealous of their rights, and it is Wit
ally important that a candidate ap-
pealing for their suffrages come to
them through the regular party
channels.
