The following resolution memorializing the Board of Supervisors creased appropriation, which was drafted at the mass meeting of teachers and sub- mitted to the sub-committee for action, was thereupon adopted: Whereas, The estimate of the Auditor for the maintenance of the School Department for the fiscal year of 1902-1903 is in the opinion of the Boara of Education and the Superintendent of Commen Schools inadequate in that it will not permit the board to make provision for the construction of school buildings, the rental of rooms, the employment of addltional teachers made necessary by the rapld growth of the city, without the reduction of the salaries of teachers, therefore be it Resolved, By the teachers in the city and county of $an Francisco in mass meeting as- sembled, first, that the teachers now employed should not through thé reduction of their sal- aries contribute to the furnishing of such accommodations or instruction made necessary by the prosperity of the city, but, second, that the city should through its Board of Supervis- ors make special provisions for any increase attendance during the school year of 1902- over the attendance of the present school year. | Third, that a committee of eighteen, of whom the chairman of this meeting be & member, be appointed to confer with the Auditor, the Board of Education, the Superintendent of Schools and the Board of Suvervisors, to the end tkat the appropriation for the School De- partment for the fiscal year of 19021903 shall be ample to maintain and provi | creased and constantly | tendance.

MINES Suggests Way to Pub- lish Their Value for Investors. Coast’s Mineral Resources Are in a Fair Way to Be Understood. There is no lack of means in immediate view for the exploitation of facts relative to the mining industry of California. In- deed, this State is singularly favored among the Pacific Coast States at this time in having so many agencies at work to bring its resources, mineral and agri- cultural, before the world. Attention has recently been called to an admirable series of county registers and maps, prepared under the direction of State Mineralogist Aubury, for the dissemination of exact and reliable knowledge concerning mines and prospects, something having large practical value. The Promotion Commit- tee has now several thousand dollars per month of income in view, which will ail be expended in giving the Eastern people facts that they need to encourage tpem to come to California to live. The State Board of Trade has just en- gaged in exploiting mining information on a new line, having collected in one large case samples of commercial mineérals from every mineralized county of the State | and this is placed where every one of the thousands of visitors to the State board's exhibition hall will see it. The railroad companies are also actively en- gaged in giving knowledge of California mines simultaneously with the imparting | of facts about climate and the wealth of farm lands to whoever will read. All the signs are that the California mines will in the near future have the advantage of new capital and new enterprises will be created on the lodes. Concerning the work that may be done to make known the mines of California, Manager Filcher of the State Board of Trade makes the following statement: H EXHIBITS ARE NEEDED. 1 have been asked by representatives of the mining industry of California whether there is any way In which miners or strictly mining countries can get into the larger movement for State development in a way to realize some benefits for their interests. I have told thera /i that if we can carry out the idea of advertis- | ing th¢ State Board of Trade exhibit and In- formation burcau more thoroughly at home, un- til they shall become so popular and univer- sally known as to attract all strangers who may land in this city in search of homes or investments In California, there is mo reason why a representative of the mining counties could ot do a great deal with visitors in ex- plaining to them the opportunities Which the Btate offers for investments in mining and other industries pecullar to the mining coun- ties. Already, without the local advertising con- templated, there are from 300 to 500 visitors | £o through the exhibit of the State Board of | Trade every day, and of this number at least | one-third are strangers. One-half the stran-, gers on an average are here hunting for an op- | portunity to get a foothold In California, ‘Among so many there are sure to be some | who could be intérested in mining, and a rep- resentative of that industry would find the opportunity every day to direct some of these D ore 1o paces where they might expend their | capital or their labor, as the case might be, | in mining ventures, with as much assurance of success as in almost any other line of indus- try. Those who know Callfornia’s mining re- | sources know that they have as yet only been | touched; that many more millions lie imbedded in_the mountains of California than were ever taken out, and that the entire mining region of the State to-day offers inducements greater in many respects than are offered by countries tarther away and harder to reach. Strikes are frequently occurring in Califor- nia which if made in some remote district, dif- ficult of access and heretoforé unknown ‘as a mining region, would cause a stampede of pros- pectors at once, but which on account of their usual occurrence here attracts little attention. If the miners want to get in this movement all they have to do is to provide an exhibit of at least one or two average samples of all the commercial minerals of the State and place with- them some man who knows all about — hose minerals, who knows what localities they are found in and the extent of each as shown by present developments. If he finds a man in- terested in copper he wants to tell him where copper deposits In California are known to ex- ist; If in quartz, to direct him to the princi- pal quartz districts; if in gravel, to the most important gravel mines of the State; if in fron, to the iron deposits: If in marble, to the lo- { calities where marbi¢ is known to be plenti- fui, and 5o on through the entire category of all’ the many economic minerals which _are | knewn to abound within the State of Califor- n ia. The right man backed by the right kind of an exhibit would turn many to the mining coun- | ties, and from the investigations and invest- | ments resulting therefrom new developments would be made, new people given employment, ana additiofial revenue added to the world. The whole question simplified is one of advertising | more thoroughly our resources and opportuni- | ties, and the mining counties, old as they are | nd rich as they are, are not understood and ppreciated abroad as much as thelr wealth warrants, and hence need to advertise as much | as any of the others. DEVELOPING THE MINES E. F. Adams_tells the Redding Free Press that the Great Western Gold Com- pany will erect a 100-ton smelter half a milé below Copley, Shasta County. The company is organized to operate the Lib- erty group and other claims. 'he Scott Valley Advance says that the hydraulic mine at Orleans Bar has clean- ed up $45,000 this season. The Summerville hydraulic mine on the south fork of the Salmon is running with a full head of water. Six dollars to the pan is credited to the Tom Quigley claim on the Klamath River from recent overations, as the re- sult of sinking to bedrock. According’ to the Yreka Journal, the late rains have continued the favorable conditions for the hydraulic miners of Siskiyou County. by melting the snow on the mountains more rapidly and affording a great amount of water for the giants, elevators and for ground sluicing. The Trinity Journal reports that opera- tions in the Rattlesnake district, in the northwestern part of Trinity County, are resulting well. W. H. Montgomery has a good showing of high grade ore gt his mine, which is about forty-five miles west from Weaverville. From present Indica- tions considerable placer mining will take lace in the county this season. King & lagles are operating a hydraulic plant. The Colfax Sentinel says that some fine quartz is cc»mln‘g.r ?ut of the Bonnie Bee mine in Bear Valley, twelve miles east of Dutch Flat. The tunmel at the Red Point drift mine i now in on the chan- nel three and one-half miles. Fowler, Dugger & Gillett are working their river bar claims on the north fork of the Amer- 4gan River. The Amador -Record reports that the Belmont mine, near Defender, will resume operations. An eighty-stamp mill will be erected at the Fremont mine. Ten stamps mine, one mile from Pine Grove. ‘According to the Caldveras Prospect the hydraulic mine at North Hill will be op- erated. Water will be piped from the big reservoir in Salt Spring Valley, North Hill is about three miles south from Jenny Lind.

Work will be started at once on the Sargent mine, near Middl and adjoining the Hardenburg. e LARGE DEALS PERFECTED. The news of a deal for the transfer of the famous North Bloomfield hydraulic mining property has caused more than a rlfple of interest in this State. The North Elcomfield has figured very largely in the annals of the litigation relating to hy- draulic mining in California, and the name is familiar to all miners throughout the country. W. B. Bourn, the principal stockholder, has secured the control. The sum of $500,000 was involyed in the trans- tion. From the North Bloomfield sands many millions of dollars have been taken. George Starr of Grass Valley is the néw manager. L. L. Myers will con- tinue as superintendent. The South Bisbee mines, the property of the South Bishee Copper Company of Los Angeles, have been sold. The Los Angeles Times is authority for the state- ment that the price is $! ,000. The pur- chaser is Gordon R. Campbell of Calu- met, Mich. The holdings are situated near the Bisbee townsite, Arizona. There are forty-six mining claims, so located as to be contiguous to the properties of the Copper Queen and Calumet and Ari- zong. fi()mpanh‘s.
