The Republicans party of Oalifornia has now an opportunity of
justifying all its pretensions to
being considered the party of the
people: A great popular agitation
is in progress which involves in
an incalculable degree the happiness and welfare of the people.
By one of those’ inconceivable
blunders which men struck with
judicial blindness sometimes
make, the Supreme Court has
rendered a decision which threatens with ruin the industries of the
State, andthe loss of millions of
dollars in property values. It does
even more than this, for it drags
an impassable barrier across the
future of the State, and says to
progress and development, and to
present prosperity: You can go
no further. Against this most
wanton and infatuated folly of four
judges of the highest tribunal in
California, the people are demanding redress and protection. The
expanded and increased until the
population of the State arein commotion. The law asthe court has
interpreted it is likely to be defied,
and society is threatened with lawlessness and disorder. The Governor yielding to the influence of
these dangers has. convened the
legislature to cure the evil and allay the popular excitement. As
the Supreme court in its objectionable decision has declared the
‘. doctrine of riparian rights to be
in force in this State, and as that
doctrine is directly inimical to the
appropriation of water for agricultural uses, and as there canbe no
progress and prosperity in Califorola without irrigation, the Le gis
lature is convened to set aside this
doctrine and: pass laws establishing a system of water rights that
will be in harmony with the popular necessites and\in line with the
only conditions upon which the
cultivation of the soil can be maintained. The use of water for irrigation purposes has been a popular right in California for generalutely dependent upon it; snd -by
reason of the peculiar qualities of
‘the soil and the character of the
climate it cannot be continued
without the use of water from the
streams. as a fertilizing agency.
On this right depends all that is
prosperous and attractive in the
State. On it depends the existence
of the agricultural community. Ir. . tigation means life. Riparianism
neans death to every material interest. This then is the Repub
lican opportunity. In control of
the legislature, taat party can pass.
such laws as the people want. It
can save the State for a future of
magnificent possibilities, or it can
condemn it to a future’of ruin and
disaster.
Which shall it be?

John Curry, who on the 10th of
this month struck a pocket of rich
ore while sinking on the old Joe
Lopez ledge out on Rush creek,
brought to town yesterday a. gold
bar worth about $859, it being the
result of two days’ work in the
claim. In pioneer tim2s an ounce

pay for mining. Curry thinks there
‘is plenty more gold left -where he
got that from which he brought:
in yesterday. It is the same
ledge in which Joe Lopez a few
years ago struck a pocket that*produced $18,000 or $20,000 in’ a fow
