The people of this place would like to build an electric railroad from here to the gold regions. There are only three men in the place capable of running the affair, Ben Swank, Joe Boes and Bill Foot. They think they can manufacture their own electricity. We think so, '.oo, for every time they come in contact with each other things begin to hum. The contract will be let soon for a tank to be built similar to the California wine tank and as soon as these three men produce enough material to 511 the tank it will be tested, and if it stands the test the road will be built and everybody will go sailing for the gold fields. But w.! think their material will be like a tallow candle—too much phizxing.
