The Equities of the Case Discussed. THE LAW AND THE FAOTS AS THEY ARE. A PROMINENT CITIZEN'S SENSIBLE VIEWS. Judging from the tone of the valley papers in discussing the power: and duties of the commission appointed under the provisions of ‘ the Biggs bill to investigate the debris question, it would seer that the scope of its authority is confined to an examination of the briefs and arguments of the Plaintiff’s lawyers and of the evidence for plaintiffs in the Gold Run and North Bloomfield cases. This done, they should immediately adopt the decisions-of the-courts-as'the report’ of the comnmiasion and adjourn sine die. By gome strange process of reasoning the anti-miners have arrived at the conclusion that the decision of the courts in these particular cases are the ultimatum of human understanding; that with an omniscience superhuman in its foresight, their sweeping edicts, traveling outside the domain of human laws, have for all time settled and construed the laws of nature. To this-view of the question the miners enter their earnest protest. Hemmed in with the horizon of their own fears, the anti-miners fail-to realize that their late antagonists may perhaps have some rights which a further and different kind ‘of investigation of the debris question than that afforded by the Circuit Court of the United States and the Supreme Court of California may permit them to enjoy and yet not trench upon the rights of the farmer. In so far as the decisions of the courts—are—decisive—of—the relative rights 6f the pariies under present conditions, the miners recognize the fact that argument and invective is worse than wasted. But with all due respect for the opinions of the courts ‘and @ readiness to obey them, the miners contend and contend justly that they are decisive of but one thing, and thatis that hydraulic mining can no, longer be maintained under the same conditions as in the past. Beyoud this the decisions of the court® are extra juricdictional and not worth a moment’s consideration. Not even the exuberant imagination of the most rabid anti-miner can find one single} phrase, no, not one single word, which can be distorted into-a condemnation of hydraylic mining in itself. Hydraulic ming is as lawful and as legitimate a busiaesss as it was twenty years ago. There is no power on éarth that can place a ban upon mining or any other legitimate industry, when carried on without infringing rights of other people. Devoid of all the parapbrases of the law, the decisions uphold but one legal principle—that one must so use his own property as not to injure his neighbor’s. To this decision the miners yield obedience, but the further conclusion that hydraulic mining in itselfis unlawiul and its further pursuit is criminal, they deny to be law cr common sense, As under the law in the°past the farmers have demanded and received redress, 80 now under the law the miners demand either relief or compensation. For while the law has provided that one must so use his own rights as not to injure his neighbor, it-has also eaid “for every wrong there isa remedy” and ‘‘when the reason of a rule ceases the rule-itself must cease,” Thathydraulic mining could no longer continue without inflicting injury upon others, the-courts have decided, and with the application of the law an industry in which millions of dollars have been inyested, employing thousands of people, affording stsfenance to thousands more and filling a vast terriiory with the bustle and activity of -prosperity, ‘hag been paralyzed and almost destroyed. Property worth millions has been rendered worthless and unproductive; men have been reduced to poverty, and their families to want and starvatfon ; “and localities once the home of a popula: lion energetic and prosperous gre now scenes of ruin and desolution” Total destruction is close at hand unless the law itself, the author of these misfortunes, will devise some means to avert the fate riow fast impending. For these manifest wrongs the miners-Will not yet consent to admit there is no remedy, Created as the commission was at the earnest solicitation Y/of the legislature of the State as evidonceg by a recolution in aceordance~ with the “sentiment of the State thatthe injustice and nook ‘to which th ‘atructive and dieastrous as the in. juries it was intenJed to remedy, it is only proper and just that private interest# and personal prejudices should be laid aside and every opportunity afforded the commission to make a complete and impartial inves, . tigation into the causes of controversy and every aid be extended to them jn devising a solution of the vexed i tion, While the farmers: have the “right to. demand that there shall be no ex. perimenting,no ill considered attempts . ~. atasolution, nor no hastily devised plans that may endanger or jeopar‘dize their well earned victory in the When sheshad Children, Le mere ham catia ti ae sox demand that every opportunity be afforded to them to demonstrate the feasibility and practicability of working the mines by the hydraulic or by any may be assured beyond a doubt that no injury will follow. The miners do not demand this as # concession, but asa right.: The peculiar circumstances of the cqntroversy Sntitle them to some relief. It is no ~pordinary casein which the remedy is wholly or partially within the power ‘}of the party at fault, but is one beyond his control. His business can be pursued in no other locality, nor can his préperty. be removed to some other place to be again-utilized ‘under other conditions for some profitable. _ and useful purpose. The same law that made bis business unlawful and prohibits its further~pursuit, rendered his property worthless. . The history of how that property was acquired and for the very purpose for which it has been utilized, and how out of that use grew the ‘slickens’”” dispute, is too well es to be repeated here. No candid mind fa-ailiar with the circumstances can fail to admit that it is now incumbent on the Goyérnment+ to devise some means whereby the property: worthless and unproductive under the law should be restored toa condition of usefulness and benefit to the owner; or, failing this, the Government, should provide adequate compensation to owners for .the value of the property and the capital invested: in-the improvements required to utilize the property. When the title passed the miner acquired the propwas Jawful for him to use it as he has used it, and that—on the other hand the geod faith of the Goverament was pledged to protect him.in the pursuit of an industry which so far as he could determine the Government looked upon with special favor as evinced by its numerous acts of legislation. To afford relief or compensation would only be an act of juatice;-and as in the past the law has been vindicated at the expense of the miners, they now demand that the Government shall afford every opportunity and extend every aid to the commision in ‘solving “the problem to the advantage . }of all parties concerned, and that the. — ingenuity of science and the powers of nature shall be first exhausted before placing the seal of final condemnation on an industry to which the world owes much. Too long has the question been a matter of local prejudice and personal bias, and a football of litigation. The amount of money collected and disbursed by. the various , associations growing out of the controversy, in keeping up litigation and fomenting a spiritof antagonism between the farmer3 and thie miners, would have been more than sufficient to provide a practical and amicable solution «of the problem satisfactory to all parties concerned, if-it_ had been so applied: ‘And to conclude, if on investigation of the question the commission should decide that the wrongs of the miners ean be remedied, and that they can be relieved in any manner from the harsh and inequitable operations of the present. rule of law to which they must submit until the reason of that rale shall cease, it shall then be the duty of the farmers to exhibit as unhesitating submission to the mandates of the law as they demand at the hands of the miners today. _.N. § sSustice Court Notes. in criminal business this week.

Whist is an old game and as fascinating today as it was when Hoyle wrote his book of games and gave us the standard of play that ‘held good for ing officers of Nevada Chapter, No.6:. ™any years, Recent writers differ with Hoyle and players of his day veloped by superior players in the United States and Great Britain. The game seems to be growing in favor all the tine; and as a proof of this we find one or more whist clubs’ in every town and: settlement. Nevada City; not to be behind or ontdone by other . folks, has several whist clubs and any number of—sociat-gatherings where the game is played. The new year has ushered in a new club, It has been organized for-the purpose of spending the long winter evenings in the delightful pastime. The Excelsior Whis! Club has enrolled the following named persons: Mr, and Mrs. J.-V: Hunter, Mr. and Mrs, Norval Douglas, Mr. and. Mrs. I. J. Rolfe,” Mr. ‘and Mrs. A. Walrath; Mr, and Mrs. Dr. Hunt, Mr. and. Mrs. Cal. Clarke, Mr. and Mis. Geo. E. Tuner, Dro and Miss Bobo,Mrc. and Mrs. J.M, Hadley, Mr, and Mrs. Wm, Giffin, Mrs. Marcellus and Mr. and Mrs, E, Bond. The first entertainment was held on Monday evening at the residence of Miss Lucy Bobo, when the following named -oificers: were elected to serve ++] for the term of three months: Mrs. N, Douglas, Pres.; Mrs. J. M. Hadley, Sec’y.} Mrs. A. Walrath, Treas. E, Bond, Wm, Giffin and Miss Bobo were appointed a committee te draft by-laws and rules, and report at the next meeting. After transacting the Torégoing business the club proceeded to draw cards for pariners, and settled down to play the new fashioned game of ‘‘drive whist,” Play commenced at 8 o’clock and was closed at 11, when it was discovered that Mrs. Hadley aud Mr. Douglas had won the capital prize, and Mrs, Bond and Cal, R. Clarke the booby prize, Afler the prizes were awarded, admired, laughed at and commented “upon, a collation was -served—and—partaken—of—with—goodcheer and sociable talk. The club adjovrned about midnight to meet-again on the 21st instant.
