are among the ohoiest vegetables of
that kind we have ever seen produced

post office Money Orders.

AS there are grossly exaggerated re-
ports in circulation regarding the
amount of money sent to European
countries through the post office by
aliens employed in the mines here,
we have taken the trouble to get the
facts concerning the outflow through
the jackson postofiice at least. IL
must be remembered that there are
but two post Office in the mother lode
towns, where the issuance of inter
national orders Is authorized, namely
jackson and Sutter Creek. All
money sent to foreign countries
through the post Office goes from one
or other of these offices. jackson
does fully three.fourths of this bust.
ness, and it is not all from jackson
either, as this is the nearest office fer
such orders for Camp Seco. Gwin
mine and other points outside, the
business from which amounts to con.
siderable. The statement that Sl9,0 900
per month or over 5000, 600 per year
is wide of the mark. Here are the
facts, for jackson office as given by
postmaster Duden. For the year
ending August 81, 1908, there we're
issued 1914 international orders,
aggregating in amount S66, 471.53. A
considerable part of this was for
parties at Camp Seco, Gwin Mine,
State of Nevada, and Amador City.
Parties who had previously worked
here and drawn orders on foreign
countries through this Office con-
tinued to apply to this office for
money orders, even after finding en-
p1oyment elsewhere. 1t is safe to say
that fully one-thlrd of the above
aggregate came from outside requests
in this way. At any rate the amount
sent away by residents of jackson
and immediate neighborhood would
not exceed $50, 900 at the outside or
less than $4,000 per month, instead
of S19, 0UU or $50, 900 as some would
want to. make out. For Sutter
Greek we have no exact data, but it
Will amount to less than half the
amount from jackson. Now, during
the same period there we're issued
from the jackson office 446S domestic
money orders, amounting to total
sum of S6224l. 80; and there was paid
out for domestic orders on this post
office the sum of $50, 800. The
domestic business shows that we
sent away to other points In the
United States something less than
$1,000 per month more than we re-
ceived from domestic sources.
While the amount of money exported
by the alien employees of the mines is
considerable, it cuts nothing like
the figure that has been generally
supposed. OF course it would be
better all round to have men of
families here instead; to circulate
the money to a greater extent through
local business channels. The non
speaking element is a incu bus, drag
upon our resources, but beyond the
amount sent to their native countries
there are paratively few who
hoard up their savings. AS rule
they live up to their income.
