Ofttinies, especially in tho winter months, there is a delay of supplies and machinery and nn enforced stoppage of work because ol fheer inability to transport goods. In the one state of California alone this loss is enormous. In regions rami fied by narrow gauge roads it is not so appreciable, but where wagon roads are still depended on. the con dition of such excuses for roads is ofltimes deplorable. The reasou for present allusion to this state of affairs is that the fall elections ate coming on, and with the county residents of most of the districts so held back lies largely the remedy, which is to elect to the boards of supervisors men who will see that tho roads are properly at After the meeting of the council, tended to. Public sentiment is not the Liquor Lice n so committee held so lax in this regard ns might be j a secret sessiou to consider applica snpposed, but ordinarily, people ( tion for the coming year as tho forget their most immediate needs j present licenses expire next Tues- ,'n 41, a iico an.l trrlir nvf.r wins shall .!.. Qir sf flw oiolit nitiiiiiK iiilvv be sheriff or county clerk, or some ..1 . 1 ..,.-w.-. til.-., nnl nttifir Ton.l navitic position, nnd overlook the need ot putting intelli- 1 gent, broad gauge men in as super-1 visors. The ordinary courty super- j visor wants to see how little can be ; spent and how low the tax rate can , bo made. This iu the abstract, is a j commendable idea, but it is not j always good practice. The taxes, levied bv state and county Ii Jess heavilv upon a community than the tax levied by the resideiits upon: themselves by l ick of proper means ot transport itioii. Keonomy u well but it should be true economy which is onlv another name for judi- j eious expenditure ot money, it ni'rpKsarv. five cents should be saved; but if necessary, ten thousand j dollars should be spent. Keonomy takes -a more broad gauge view of. things than the imme bate "saving" , of a few dollars iu taxes. Such sav- in is often the most costly form of financial b-llv. This is generally understood, but, as stated, if in the eomin''elctiotis tlu'-Ceriuan vote" or the "Scandinavian vofe." or any ... . .... . ; other kind of vote te solely ligureo on in the effort to get some favoiite son elected to a paying position, and the more important post of hu- pervisor be thrown to geographical sections of tho county 'just to fill up the ticket," there can not be j much immovemeut expected in tue ! present backwoods system of roads in m mftnv niinin? districts. Afl a cold business proposition it would pay. The saving in one year in the loss now entailed and the improve ment io values would more than justify tho slightly increased tax rate. The subject is a homely one, but ot close concern to the raining industry, and those who have given any observation to ii will concede that the remarks are as true as they are trite. A BIG NUGGET. The largest nugget, or mass of silver ever mined of which "con centrates" has authentic detail was a piece weighing 1340 pounds, which was taken from the Smug gler mine, Aspen, Colo., in 1S94. In regard to this nugget S- I. Hallet says : "The nugget in ques tion formed part of a co tsignment 01 15,031 pounds of ore, which with silver at cents or thereabouts netted 11s. free and c lear of all ex penses, very close to $S2,ooo. This particular nugget was gotten out by itself, and seemed to be ex tremely pure, so that I photo gruphed it. It was impossible to asr.ay it in the r.rdinary acceptation of l he word, an I it was put directly into ciueibles and the crucible re turns given to us by the company. The smelting charges on such oro were naturally high. This streak of silver occurred as a core in some very rich ore, averaging about 1000 ounces per ton. At times it would be half an inch in thickness, and then widen out to 2 feet or 2-i feet. It was a little purer than a silver dollar and almost as bright. We were obliged to mine by the side of it, allowing it to hang down into the stope until wc had reached a natural crack or very thin place, when we could break it off. It ex tended along the stope for 20 or 30 feet iu height, was 3 or 4 feet in length, width as given. As to just how it was made it is hard for me to give a theory. It was sometimes found crystallized in connection with- argentine, which might lead one to think that it had simply been argentite, and that by the enormous pressure exerted on it tho sulphur had beed expelled. Again, I found pieces in winch the outer sunace was n verv thick muss of wire silver practically wcldod together, wiiicn would, of course account for it in very different way." The two new smelters to Ic built on the bav of San Francisco, Cab. "... .1. together with recently uinenscu facilities in existing plant!, will tend ; to render uiinceessniy any fuither I shl incuts of silver ore from Chile J to Pueblo. Colo., via Galveston, 1 Texas, a more direct form of trans- j portatiou being conducive toecon-; omy. b'uel oil and improved trans 1 poitation of necessary fluxes aid in i such advance. Mining Press.

The traffic on the Sotitlern Pa cific trains is still quite heavy, but it i gradually falling off, ns tho Im position is drawing to a close. The traffic is heavy enough to keep all the trains late however, although it is hoped that the time can soon be adhered to when tho new heavy rails are laid all the way through. The track layers are at this poiut at present at work and are making rapid progress. Laborers Are Scarce. There is a great scarcity of labor ing men at the present time in this section und . all through the state than has beeu known before. The Fair at Portland has kept au army busy, the increased work at tho lumber mills, tho new railroad building, and many largo contracts are using every man available. Those who attended services at the Christian church last Sunday were treated to two excellent dis courses by liov. D. K. Olson, of the Eugene DiviniU School, who has been engaged in the ministry for the past ten years. Arrangements bavo been made for having regular servicos in the above church hereafter, and it is rumored that the good peoplo of tho Cottage Grove church may bo fortunato enough to secure the ser vices of Kov.
