Gold Production In 1899.
I he preliminary estimate of the produc
tion of gold and sliver in the United States
during the calendar year 1800, made by
.Mr. Huberts, director of the mint, shows
a total gold production of 7oa.,i7o, an
Increase over the production of last year
of i,2j(i,67o. I he production of silver
during the year Is estimated at 574,4:4,-,
6, an Increase dining the year of fj,,
040,211. Oregon is credited with produc
Ingonly Ji, 550,387 in gold.an Increaseovef
the production of iSjS of about 5400,000. '
As all familiar ttlth the tacts know, this '
Is a very low estimate for this state. I
John Todd Couldn't Find the Caucus.
John Todd went on a still lonesome
hunt for the democratic caucus Friday
night. He climbed two flights of stairs
and fell over a trocha of barb wire
"enough of the d 11 stuff," said John
"to fence all John Day." He careened
down the middle of the street, about 12 p.
in., after a three hours' caucus with him
self in Hnrley Wood's, and if he had met
a republican he would have beat him like
a dog. Al Jones and old man Bellinger
tried to square the matter, but John was
forced to ease his outraged feelings by
wiring Menuo Unzlcker for more money.
