The democratic candidates held their !

was well attended. The leading issue

unexplained reason, throughout the
county. Gregory and Vicini mlsrepre-
sented the Ratio license muddle, and
attempted to right themselves Of the
negligence. But in Jackson, no re-
ference of any sort was made to their
affair. r. G. Bole, democratic candi- !
date for superior bench again reiterated
that the claims made by certain people
that the lives, liberties and protection
of Eproperty lies in the palm of the
Judges hand was an exaggeration.

for my opponent and believe if he
does make any mistakes, they are OF

smiles and fascinating habits, am al
most tempted to cast my ballot for
him myself when l enter the booth

brief in his remarks. He brought
forth round of applause when he in
formed his hearers that he would not

ALPINE MINE
AT PLYMOUTH
A Promising Property being
Reopened.

This company which is operating
the Alpine mine, adjoining the Ply
mouth Consolidated at Plymouth, is
making rapid headway in its work of
preparing for development on a busl-
ness-like and thorough manner. With
a windlass the north shaft has been
cleared and repaired to the water level,
about 40 feet from the surface. Mr.
Soares of Yuba county, and James
Mcmahon of the American River Elec-
tri Company are engaged in installing
a first class electric plant to operate
the main works at the north shaft,
which Will be the main three compart-
ment shaft. An auxiliary hoist operated
by air compressor, of the Ingersoll-
Rand Imperial pattern is being erected
over the south shaft, and it is ex-
pected to start the electric motor of
100 power, which is to operate it, by
to morrow. A Knowles pump, worked
by air compressor, and capable of
throwing 100 gallons per minute, is a
also under way. The north shaft is
260 feet deep. and the south shaft zoo
feet, both sunk in early days. Both
will be reopened and placed in good
running order. The surface buildings
are completed, and are of substantial
character, built of galvanized iron
with concrete foundations. Sixteen
men are employed at present, Includ-
ing five engineers. The force will be
largely increased as soon as machinery
is installed and running. The president
of the company, j. L. Henry, is on
the ground, giving the construction
work his personal supervision. He
will have one of the most complete
and up to-date plants on the mother
lode.
The activity of this promising min
ing venture has put new lite into the
people of the northern end of the
country. They have waited long for
the tide of prosperity, once so strong
in that section, to retrun, and in the
opening of the Plymouth they expect
to have a long era of good times. Pro
perty values have stitfened consider
ably under the stimulus of this ander-
taking. On the business street es-
pecially the upward trend of real es-
tate is particularly noticeable.

VIII surely hide you soon.
I'd like to sail the skies with you.
And race the clouds along the blue
Please take me in your gold canoe

Around the world and home Wen float,
Ny pretty Lady Moon.
I'd rather travel in your boat
Than In silk balloon
Well look down on the rivers deep.
The lonely roads, the huddled sheep.
The woods where birds fast asleep
My pretty Lady Moon
Here all the world is green and gay
Beneath the skies of June.
But OH what wonders far away
You see, my Lady Moon!
You climb above the mountains CROWN
You view the busy, crowded town.
The restless sea, the lonely down
My pretty Lady Moon!
Oh. let me sail the skies with you
When you're "The Harvest Moonw
Well choose a night when clouds are few,
And West Wind sings tune:
When orchards shine with apples bright,
And reapers sing in waning light,
And you shine for their dance all night

zCherries and Rubiesa@o~

fruit of sparkling red. But, alas, when
the princess put forth her tiny hand
to pluck one, 10, she found that the
trees were all made of precious stones!
She grew very angry and cried aloud
in her veXation. But all to no purpose.
She had discovered that even prin-
cesses can only have real fruit trees
by patiently awaiting their growth.
When Cherry awoke and gazed up
into the branches she was seized with
a sudden fear lest her cherries also
had become jewels instead of ripe fruit
and she reached up to pick some in
great hurry. her relief was great
when she found them as tempting as
of old, and ever after that she appre-
ciated her treasures and ceased to long
greedily for anything more valuable
Philadelphia Record.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-13

Once upon a time there lived a lit
tie girl who was passionately fond
of cherries. So much so, indeed, that
she finally came to be nicknamed
"Cherry'' and SO called by all who
knew her.
Now Cherry was SO pleased with the
bright red fruit that one day.. when she
was yet a very small girl, the idea
came to her that it would be a fine
thing to plant some cherry stones in
the garden, and see If they would grow
She did so, and her industry was re-
warded by seeing at length green sprigs
shoot up under her careful watching.
These in due time came to be fine
young trees, which each year bore
more of the delicious fruit, until at
last Cherry not only had enough for
her own family's use, but she was able
to make money by selling them, and
also to make fine jam and pies from
the same little red cherries, all of
which brought her in quite nice little
sum each cherry season. And she was
still quite little girl as yet. Neigh

admire the beautiful sight of the trees
in bloom in the spring, and to pur-
chase the fruit when June rolled
around.
One would have supposed that all
this would have been enough to salts
fy any child, but not so Cherry Her
ambition for money had been aroused,
and she forgot her delight in the de-
liciousness of the fruit in her longing
to make a great deal of money from
her favorites.
One day as she lay beneath the
shady branches, gazing up into the
glowing green lea~es and the bright
clusters of fruit, the thought came
to her that she expressed aloud: IF
only these leaves We're made of real
precious stones, emeralds, and the
cherries were real rubies. How happy
l should bel"
AS she said this she fell asleep and
while asleep she dreamed the following
dream:
She was a princess who lived in a
beautiful castle and had almost every
wish gratified before she uttered it
aloud. She was waited upon by beau
tiful handmaidens and courtiers, this
fail Princess Cherry, and her life should
have been a very happy one. She had
many lovely clothes and gorgeous

HARD WORK FOR LITTLE GIRL

When little Jennie, who was not quite
5 years old, went to visit school one
day for the first time, she was as gay
as a lark. But when school was over
and she returned to her home she had
a tired look upon her face. When she
was asked how she liked school she
said: II did not like it,"
why not?" was the next question
asked her.
"Oh, l had to work awful hard " an
swered the little girl. Il had to keep
still like everything"

possible to be done by having an or
chard spring up in a few minutes. But
this princess did, and pined and moped
because her demand was not complied
with. So the courtiers, after a great
consultation, finally arranged that the
princess should come to the garden
a certain day and see what their eff
forts had done for her. She was de-
lighted, for she thought that her wish
was to be granite.
The day arrived and when she first
approached the wall she thought her
desire was fulfilled, for 10! there in
deed stood a dazzling array of trees,
with leaves of brilliant green, and

jewels and a coach and pair, besides
a little pet dog who was trained to do
tricks. But the princess pined and
moped, and all because of one thing.
1t was this: One day when riding
forth along the Kings Highway she
had caught sight of a fine row of
cherry trees, bright with fruit, hang
ing over garden wall. Nothing would
do Lut that the princess must have
just such a row of trees in her own
garden. What was to be done? The
courtiers looked at one another in dis
may. Such trees, they well knew, had
taken several years to grow, and even
princesses cannot command the i'm
