A Great Source of Wealth.

1t has been 60 years since gold was
discovered in California and since that
time that city has contributed regular
ly to the worlds store of this rich
metal and has supplemented it with a
similar quantity of silver and plati-
mum.
The United States Geological Survey
reports that in 1908 California produced
SIS. ,559 in gold; 1.647.27S ounces of
silver valued at sS7SO57; and FOG
ounces of refined platinum, valued at

TRAMPS ON THE RAILROAD.
They Will Use It In Spite of Dangers
and Warnings.

The Pennsylvania railroad continues
its vigorous campaign against tres
passers on its tracks and trains, but
the task is a formidable one. An offlc-
| er of the road who has lately been re-
viewing the subject says that the prac-
tice of walking on railroad tracks has
been growing constantly, and yet the
Pennsylvania alone had over 1000
trespassers arrested in the year 1908.
This statement is given in a circu-
lar which has been issued by the com.
pany. prefaced by some figures show
ing the aggregate number of tres
passers killed and injured on the rail-
ways of the country during the ten
years ending December 81 last The
total number killed was 47,416; a truly
startling figure, although every one
who cares has had the information be-
fore him, year by year, in the reports
of the interstate commerce commission.
The number has been constantly in
creasing with the increase in popula-
It'd and with the building of new
railways. In 1898 the number killed
w;'s 4,062, in 1905, it was 500, and in
1907 it rose to 6,612, more than Is a

was 915. These are not all tramps. by
any means; the list includes factoy
workmen and other laborers. and also
the wives and children of men living
near the tracks.
Formerly the trouble was the COM
parative indifference of the railways
and of the magistrates; now. with the
railways active. the difficulty with the

cost of supporting the Migrants in the

action of the railway in forcing the
tramps to leave the tracks. The farm

plished by newspaper comments on
THIS state of things as well as on other
phases OF the subject. The Elmira

on the magistrates and the railway
officials to speedily come to an agree
ment. The cost of subduing the train
rides and the tramps should be made

the States production of these metals
i'm 1908 therefore shows considerable
gains over the production in 1907. The
value of the gold produced in the State
in 1905 was slightly in excess of the
value for 1908, but with that exception
the figures for gold and silver pro-
duction in 1905 are the largest attained
within the last decade.
