CAUSE or SLOW GROWTH.
Cause Of Retarded Development of Cal
ifornia Is Laid to Scarcity
Of Coal.

One of the causes which has
somewhat retarded the develop.
ment of California, particularly
in the manufacturing line, has
been the lack OF fuel. The finding
Of oil in that state has relieved in
some degree the situation. but
large quantities OF coal are still
used, most of which has either to
be brought in from Australia or
other foreign ports, or else
brought BY rail a distance Of 900
miles. Recent discoveries in the
state Indicate that coal in large.
quantities exists in that locality
at accessible points, and develop.
ment il being pushed with yigor.
While this means loss of some
immediate traffic to the railroads,
IL promises large gains in the fu
ture. The development of the re
sources of that state has only just
begun. and eorrespondingly the
present volume Of railroad traffic
therein is the only promise of
what will come In the future.

There has been a sensational gold
strike twenty miles south Of Beowawe.

district Charley Montgomery, a
local mining man and prospector, has
uncovered a large ledge said to be
marverlously rich in gold. An expert
was visiting in Cortez and was in
duced to visit the mines near Beowawe
with the result that he has taken
bond on the property for theAmal-
gamated Co. OF Butte, Montana, for
$3.50, 900 He promised when he left
the district to return inside of ten
days, but instead Of waiting for the
limit he returned at once. Prospect
ors are rushing to the new find aud
the farmers in the district find it
difficult to keep a man on the farms
for they all want to try their hand
at mining. The district is near the
Eureka-Lander county line and every
body about Beowawe is greatly ex
cited. The find is one Of the mos!
