From nil accounts tho Chincso

their better 1 rotcction.
Tito farmers aro galling lots of
"taffy" nbout this lime. No politi
cal paper goes out without n natter

theso peoplo act wisely in so doing.
It is tho farmors voto that will
scttlo this eloction. If, as a rulo,
tboy nro satisfied with prevailing
conditions, there will bo no chnngo

National political rovolutions or
"tidal waves," ns thoy nro called,
are alwajs caused by deep discon
tent among the agricultural classes.
Forlunalo is tho country which
has n prosperous nuil contented lot
of farmers, and fortunate is tho po

Farmer.
that have since been found profit
able was the period of the burro
trnll, this remark being Intended
only lor general application. The
transportation ot machinery tor
mills at the mines, while not im
possible on the backs of animals,
has been nevertheless one of the
chief factors in compelling the con
struction of tonds for wagons.
Bulky loads cannot be transported
in any other way. The dinicttltles
to be be overcome, frequently, In
the construction of a road only a
mile or two in length ntc so great
as to call for social necessity before
it will be built. This special ne
cessity is usually a metallurgical
one. There is a certain point be
low which the ore values cannot
run niul bear the cost of distant
transportation on the backs of bur
ros. The advnntnge of the wagon
road for the hauling of crude ores
is not enough greater to compel
this means ol" transportation in
tnativ cases; hence the tnohleut of
improved means of ote reduction ts
apt to be, in general, the lirst mo
tive for wagon road construction
And the road need not be a work,
of nit, either.
Good roads arc demanded ns sue
ccssois to poor ones, much as rail
ways arc called for, though the dif
ference is not so great. A success
ful enterprise, possessed of metal
lurgical means of the highest effi
ciency, will introduce nil other con
comitant improvements ami the
good road is one of them. 1 lie
other, more modern, menus of min
ing transportation, the aerial tram
way, arrives for use where the
wagon road may be cither difficult
or impossible, but where primarily
the operators wish to cut off a con
siderable item of expense, the sav
ing as between the two means rep
resenting vcrv often the entile
margin ol profit. The proposition
of mining enterprises, however,
that justify n tramway to those that
Jo not as yet is quite small, and
therefore the wagon road ns a
menus of developing mineral re
gions is fnr from obsolete, even if
this were possible in the face of
other important considerations.
Wagon roads in their way do ns
much for the miner as the railroad
in its way. In fact, the former ore
the arteries of the latter, and in
mining regions, therefore, remote
from centers ot metallurgical enter
prises or railway depots, road con
struction is constantly under way
and silently this work is producing
results that the outside world
knows little about.
We repeat, the farmer does not
half appreciate Ins country road.
Let him talk to the miner and he
will learn what an advantage he
has. Daily Mining Record.
Tho question of nttachiug that
portion of tho Bohemia mining
district to Laso county will bo
discussed considerably from now.
until tho meeting of tho legislature
Tho Commercial Club of Coltngo
Grofo and tho minors association
of Bohemia havo started tho move
ment ami nil tho minors in tho dis
trict aro favorablo to tho change
It is not anticipated that Douglas
county will roako nny serious, objec
tion to having tho clmngo tnado,
Thero is no outlet from tho district
except via Cottago Grovo and as it
would bo very oxponsivo to build a
road into tho district from Douglas
county and ns two good wagon roads
roach it from tho now nvor sale, and
n rail road has been built rnoro than
half tho way it would appear to bo
tho proper thing to havo tho wholo
district in Lano county.
WA00N ROADS AND MINES.
The qucsticn of transportation
facilities in a mountainous region
is a much broader one than when it
is applied to conditions in an agri
cultural country. To the farmer
the mention of transportation
promptly brings up the matter of
railroad service, lor wagon roads
are not so much of a problem with
him as to long remain unsolved
when the common need of a well
settled country demands it. To
the miner a wagon road frequently
stands for the difference between
success and failure. We are not, in
this connection, thinking of the
much-discussed problem ol good
roads, desirable though they may
be, for a good road does not possess
as much advantage over a poor one
as a poor one does over none at all.
If a road had to be "good" 111 the
same sense referred to before it
could be used, the logic of the ar
gument would be that none of the
products ot industry could move
until they were provided with steam
railways. Even a poor road
through the mountains may be the
salvation of a mining enterprise.
There are many places in the min
eral regions where the corners ol
huge boulders protrude and hamper
the progress of teams, yet slow as
the work may be the teamster can
accomplish by means of this rough
thoroughfare thinga that would
never be possible over a burro trail.
It is a remarkable tact that the
progress of metallurgy in the West
has been intimately associated with
the progress of road building and
it is not merely a coincidence. The
period of the smelling of high grade
ores and the dumping of values
