Senator Davis, accompan ty Sheriff to the office of J./H. Bolles, Presior Co., who lives Mr. Davis got home from San Francisco lastevening. He says that President Bolles talked in a courteous manner in relation to the suit, and immediately after the papers were served wrote a telegram to the C mpany’s Superintendent at ‘Snareuville directing him to close down the mines and to sell no water for hydraulic mining purposes. The injunction prohibited the sale of water for hydraulic mining purposes, as well as prohibited the Company from sk debris from eer -mines into the Yuba river or its tributsries. This is an entirely new festure in the injunction suits, and a very im t one. President Bolles told Davis thathe regarded J Temple's decision as just and wise. He also said that his company do aot wish to carry on their business. unlgwfully. If they could not mine without violating the law they would he satisfied to stop. Word was received from Smartsville last night that the Excelsior Company had discharged no men, but that there had been no water running in the mines yeste: day. The pooner a that the injunction will trictly obeyed. . There is no reason to doubt the good faith of the President of the Company, and he of course controls the Superintendent, and would be punishable for contempt in case the injunction were violated. James O'Brien was. fora long time Superintendent, but there was a change of management last Spring and he retired: from that position, Mr. O’Brien is supposed to still retain a large interest in the property We do not understand ony Mr. Bolles. quietly submita, as reported above, to have the Smartaville _property closed down without any attempt on his part to provide some way of continuing to work the mines the .cumpauy have bonght'and paid for.

At bringing about such a state of affairs none bat thearch-fiends wholine their pockets with gold would rejoice. rhe + Bolles ‘informed Mr. Davie that he regarded Judge Temple’s decision as just and wise,” but Bes we do not believe anything . of) the . kind.

And the company lost its franchise, because the land granted to it was just rolled right over, and they had to build the road straight up and do-ru, or give it up!” **I don’t see how you manage to live insuch a country,” said the astonished girl. “Oh, we peg along!” courageous. response, ‘‘lt’s the greatest country outdoors!

We just planted a grain crop under that reservation apd in fourteen days the wheat crop had hoisted it up a hundred feet and there it stood!
