we're ready to reap.
The Markley mine has resumed
operations. Work is being prosecuted
most vigorously with the outlook
most favorable.
Work on the Mitchell mine is being
pushed right along. The shaft is
about free of the water which had
accumulated during the months of
idleness.
Elmer Murphy and Fred Griesback,
have opened up the GriIlo mino on
knob hill. 1t is placer mine, the
gold bearing gravel being overlaid
by lava formation of cement

and their success is not doubted.
The Marsino Bros. are preparing to
drive the tunnel on their mine, which
is located half a mile northwest OF
Volcano, 200 feet further in the hill,
in order to tap the shaft which they
sunk two years ago. At present they
have immense bodies of good gravel
in sight.

Delinquent Tax List.

We publish this week the first
chapter of the interesting annual
statement of the tax collector, giving
list of those who are in arrears with
their dues to state and county. The
list is not so long winded as was at
first anticipated. 1t is not as long
as that of last year, although the
amount is larger. At the last moment
township four marched up to the
counter and planked down $4,000 for
taxes in that district, making that
townships shortage very small. One
half the amount published is repre-
sented by a blanket mortgage on some
mining claims In Volcano district,
the mortgage being assessed for its
full value of $500, 900, and the snm
delinquent being s450O This mort
gage has since been cancelled. We're
it not for this item the amount OF
delinquency would be under the
average.

The Legal Holidays.

1t was rumored that the legal holi-
days are to be continued for two or
three weeks more. Much complaint
is made thereat, especially those IN
the sections of the state not directly
affected by the late disaster. Many
surmises are made as to the resaon of
this continuance of the holidays.
Governor Pardee is falling heir to
adverse comment because of this long
embargo on the resumption of ordin-
ary business conditions. Some think
there is no grounds for it. The banks
have nearly all opened and are doing
business. No indications of panic or
run on the banks have appeared.
Why not, then, lift the holiday sea-
son, and get back to normal condi-
tions as far as possible. We believe
the governor is not disposed to con-
tinue the holidays one hour beyond
the time which he deems, for good
reasons, to be advisable for the best
| lutoI6SOS VI LH6 SIdI6. TOUdUly Gue
insurance companies afford the true
explanation of the prolongation OF
the holidays. To pungle up from
$3.50, 900, 600 to 5000, 600, 600 for fire
loss, all at once, is no easy task, even
for the giant moneyed institutions
concerned. They have not the ready
cash on hand to do this. They must
realize on securities. And to throw
vast quantities of really gilt edged
securities on the market at once,
means tremendous slump in values,
and probably the ruin of many insur-
ance companies believed to be per-
fectly sonud, if given little time to
make arrangements to meet their
losses. The failure of number of
insurance companies would greatly
aggravate the situation IN San Fran
cisco, and cripple the rebuilding
plans. Hence, probably the governor,
at the instance of these companies,
is extending the holiday season to
enable them to tide over the crisis
with the least possible disadvantage.

Special Session Called.

Governor Pardee has called special
session of the legislature to meet at
the capitol tomorrow. 1t seems the
most pressing measure is Que to pro-
vide for an extension of the statute
of limitations for six months Ordin-
ary debts, under the present law,
outlaw in two years, and written
obligations such as notes and mort
cages, in four years from date of
maturity. In this time of financial
stress, it would be unwise to enforce
collection of many debts, and the
creditors cannot afford TO allow them
to outlaw. The legal holidays, it
noW appears, had for their primary
object, the prevention of the statute
of limitation running against such
debts. Probably on the first day cf
the legislature bill will be passed
extending the time for the next six
months. Certainly the legal holidays
will not be called off until such an
act has been passed. 1t is believed
that in six months the crisis will
have passed and business matters
will have settled down to normal
condition, doing away with the need
of special laws.
To meet general expectations the
session will be brief. To properly
consider all the subjects recommend
ed for legislative action by the com
mittee would occupy six months. &c
sweep over such a wide range hastily
is fraught with danger. The COVER
nor, let us hope, will prune down the
measures to be considered to such as
are actually required by the COD
ditions arising out of the San Fran
cisco fire. 1t is an easy matter t(
cali the law makers together; it il
quite different proposition to ge
them to let go on the salary of S8 pc

Insurance Rates Raised.

The insurance companies have taken
concerted action to increase insurance
rates throughout California, if not
the whole Pacific coast, 25 per cent,
on all risks, except dwelling houses
and farm property. Notice has been
served on all agents in jackson, that
risks hereafter taken must be on this
basis. The companies have been
badly shaken by the San francisco
disaster, and have adopted this plan
of trying to recoup Themselves to
some extent. A number of small
companies will be unable to weather
the storm. The effect of this heavy
increase in rates will be to greatly
reduce the insurance business, es-
pecially in the county towns, where
the rates heretofore ruling have been
considered almost prohibitoIy. Pro
perty holders IN many instances will
conclude that it is better to run the
chances of loss by fire than to pay
such eXorbitant rates. And the haggI-
ing over technical points in trying to
squirm out of obligations by the fire
in the city, on account of earthquake
and dynamite damage, still further
depreclates the insurance companies
in public estimation. Property
holders argue, that if they grasp at
straws in a great disaster like the one
which has wrecked San Francisco,
they would do so under any circum-
stances, and that the taking out of a
policy, with the payment of stiff
premium therefor, affords a sorry
protection after all.
