New Electric Company

The general Electric Company, re-
presented by Mr. Underwood and others
who were in Jackson last week, are
making arrangements for the in
auguration of another soig power
plant in this county. Preliminary sur
veys have already been made, and the
final working surveys will be COM
menced ere long. The scene of opera
tions will be on the Mokelumne river,
at point above the intake of the Stand
ard Electric company, so that the en-
terprise will not in any way interfere
with the operations of the present
plant at Electra. Indeed, it will
doubtless prove a benefit rather than
otherwise to the Standard folks.
The intention is to build an enormous
dam in the vicinity of Bear river, at
favorable site already selected.
From this dam the water will be con-
veyed by ditch, built on the Amador
side of the river, to point above the
head of the Standard ditch, where the
power plant will be built. 1t is claimed
that fall of over 1000 feet can be
secured, and that the capacity of the
plant will be from 80, 900 to 40, 00C
horse power. The water will all be
returned to the river above the head OF
the Standard ditch, and hence that
company will gain additional water
supply by the scheme.
The installation of this enterprise
means much for the eastern section OF
Amador county. To get the plant in
operation will extend over a period of
years, and a small army of employees
will be necessary to build the big dam
and construct the miles of bitches. AS
far as disposal of the electric energy
is concerned, there is no question upon
that proposition The demand for
electric power is increasing at a
greater rate than the supply.

Serious Fight

A fight in the home of Peter Derania
last week, nearly proved fatal to N.
Marninovch, an aged visitor to the
Derania residence.
1t is claimed Derania and Marnino-
vich were drinking freely of wine,
when an argument arose on a certain
thing that dates back some twenty
years. Derania, it is said, became
very angry during the heated discus
sion which followed, and grasping a
chair, struck his aged companion with
it on the chest, breaking several ribs.
He repeatedly hit the old man, breakc
ing his nose and crushing and brdsing
his victim in a most brutal manner.
DR.. Norman of Plymouth was sum-
moned to render Marninovich medical
aid. The doctor reported his patient
to be in a critical condition, holding
out little hopes for his recovery. The
victim has however, greatly improved,
and hopes are now entertained for the
man S recovery.
Constable Wheeler was out of town
during the fight, but upon his return,
he was immediately notified of the
affair, and as a result, Derania was
placed under arrested and held under
$3.50 bond.

Swimming Pool

The old reservoir located on Peek S
hill has been filled with water, and is
used as a swimming pool. A crowd of
Jackson boys have contributed suffici-
ent funds to defray rental expenses
and 81 per month water rent. The
water is tapped at the ditch, and runs
into the old basin through a small
ditch.
A ladder and platform has been
constructed upon the west side of the
basin, and diving board on the east
side. A large tent has been erected
close by, and this is used by the
bathers for place to change clothes.
Those who helped put the new swim,
ming hole in commission are Arthur
Maloni, Lionel Harris, Irwin Leach,
Marion Calvin, Earl Garbarini, Loren
20 Oneto and Harold Flagg. The pool
is about $50 feet long, 60 feet wide,
and nearly 10 feet deep.

EngIebright the Friend
of the Miners

Mining engineers rarely devote much
attention to politics. The country
would be. better served if they did.
Farmers and lawyers form an undue
proportion of the membership of legis-
lative bodies, and a few engineers
would prevent a good many impractical
experiments and at the same time that
they would naturally be constructive
in their tendencies. California is the
only state represented in congress by a
man who gives his occupation as
mining engineer. w. F. Engle-
bright, who represents the first Cali
fornia district, has abundantly proved
his right to the title by excellent work
at Nevada City and elsewhere. At
Washington he has been very infuen-
tial in shaping legislation relative to
mining matters. 1t was due to his in,
sistence that lands containing precious
metals were expected from the opera
tion Of the new withdrawal law, and
in the creation of the bureau of mines
and other matters of concern to the
mining industry he has been active
and effective. We do not always agree
with him, but, if it be not permitted
a technical paper to express an opinion
in isuch matters, we may at least
make clear our hope that the voters of
his district, in which there are large
mining interests, will continue for
many years to send him to Washing
ton. We like to think that there is at
least one mining engineer in Congress.

Carriage Turned Over

Several Italians secured a double
team at the Union livery stable last
Monday, and drove to Amador. On
their return home, about p. M, while
rounding the corner on the Kennedy
grade, below the Argonaut mine, the
team was upset and the occupants
thrown to the ground, the top of the
carriage was demolished and the seat
broken. The horses were stopped be-
fore more serious damage was done,
and the team was taken to the stables,
looking as though 1T was struck by a
cyclone. The drivers were allowed to
depart, after paying deposit on the
smashed wagon.
Not long ago, several drunken men
driving double team, ran into an
other team at the Kennedy grade up
near the old Kennedy shaft. The ac
cident resulted in the crpplng of a
valuable horse. This sort of driving
ought to be investigated whenever it
is reported, and the offenders brought
to justice.

Stricken on Street

Mrs Dwyer was stricken with
apoplexy on Tuesday morning about 8
a. m. in front of Peter Piccardo's har-
ness shop on Main street. The aged
lady desired to visit the millinery
store, where some alterations on a hat
were being done. She had all ar.
rangements complete for visit to Sar
Francisco, and intended to leave Jack
son on Wednesday morning. Peter
Piccardo said he noticed Mrs Dwyel
falter, and hurried to her side before
she had a chance to fall. He ther
called Charles Ginocchio a son-1n law,
and with the assistance of M. S.
McGary, she was removed to the home
of Charles Ginocchio, where she is
to be improving as nicely as
can be expected.
