They would die sooner than accept charity, even at the hands of a grateful people. What they do needisa home with its companionship and its comforts. This home must be located in the mountains. The mining pioneers (and they all are or have been that) would pine away and die if rudely taken out of the laod where through weary years they have labored with so much faith.

He is very apt to lose his temper, and consider the question settled by simply pronouncing the whole thing from base to pintiacle a lie. But the land grabbers and their tools who are carrying on the war against the miners don’t care a cent for that kind of knock-down argument.

As heretofore shown —by the Tribune, if any known fact is} susceptible of proof by human testimony it has been shown over and over again in a manner that cannot be gainsaid,-that the danger of overflow. to the valley lands and _ the damage arising therefrom, when such over-flows *do unfortunately occur, has been much. lessened within the past twenty years in consequence of the extraordinery measures taken by the men of the mountains for storing the surplus waters as they fall during the severest portion of the winter’s storms, And it is morally certain as any fact can be yét undeveloped, that year by year the same causesand the same enterprise that has-in the~-past~built these great monuments of mining skill and labor will, in the future, carry to completion those. other and grander works already inaugurated, but not yet completed, and which will in their turn serve to still further lessen the evils under which the valleys have suffered necessarily, as the great reservoir into which, without let. or hindrance, pound the mountain floods, If one twentieth part of the skill, the imdustry, or the grit of the mountain men had been shown by these chronic growlers of the valleys, in seconding the efforts made by others in their behalf,, the lowest swamp on their ague-shaking plains would to-day be as safe from injury by reason of winter floods, as the highest peak of the Sierras.

For it is well known that whisky that is ab. solutely pure requires age, care and attention, and our old Davenport whisky possesses-all the above qualities, The grain used in the distillation of our J. H. Davenport’ whisky is always selected. from the finest, richest and best grown in the State of Kentucky. The water is drawn from one of the finest limeliar properties which have gained for Kentucky whiskies such world-wide celebrity. This process makes our J. H. Davenport a pure, hand-made sour mash whiskv, and we claim that for delicacy of flavor, purity and medicinal qualities it stands unexcelled. Yours Truly, Scuuitz & VonpbarcEn, AFTER an experience of many years I have at last succeeded in finding a whisky (the J. H. Daven port) that: is absolutely pure and free from drugs. of any kind and which I can recommend for medicinal purposes, I will keep this whisky for sale in future. Call and try it. It is pure. You willlike it. Do. J. M. Manning, Drogas. Grass Valley, STRAIGHT WHISKY. Asa t+ deal has been said about John L.

And‘unfottunately for who-as President of the Anti—De. ! anti-slickens leaders refuse to take . ° _ wemt for the Truth. [Forest City (Sierra Co.) Tribune.) — It is the most difficult task in the world for an honest man to contend or argue against a false assumption fit the particular case in hand. He is very apt to lose his temper, and consider the question settled by simply pronouncing the whole thing from base to pintiacle a lie. But the land grabbers and their tools who are carrying on the war against the miners don’t care a cent for that kind of knock-down argument. They merely withdraw for the moment from public gaze to give time to rehabilitate the same old lie—in theminers’ cause these welldressed._‘‘anti-slickens” _lies,. _ pass) current for the genuine coin in more markets: than one; and that too. in places where reasonable men might have good ground to expect better things. As heretofore shown —by the Tribune, if any known fact is} susceptible of proof by human testimony it has been shown over and over again in a manner that cannot be gainsaid,-that the danger of overflow. to the valley lands and _ the damage arising therefrom, when such over-flows *do unfortunately occur, has been much. lessened within the past twenty years in consequence of the extraordinery measures taken by the men of the mountains for storing the surplus waters as they fall during the severest portion of the winter’s storms, And it is morally certain as any fact can be yét undeveloped, that year by year the same causesand the same enterprise that has-in the~-past~built these great monuments of mining skill and labor will, in the future, carry to completion those. other and grander works already inaugurated, but not yet completed, and which will in their turn serve to still further lessen the evils under which the valleys have suffered necessarily, as the great reservoir into which, without let. or hindrance, pound the mountain floods, If one twentieth part of the skill, the imdustry, or the grit of the mountain men had been shown by these chronic growlers of the valleys, in seconding the efforts made by others in their behalf,, the lowest swamp on their ague-shaking plains would to-day be as safe from injury by reason of winter floods, as the highest peak of the Sierras.

Joxun L. Burns, Agent. To THe TrapE.—Practical experience has demonstrated to us that the trade requires a choice old BourOrrice of ScHULTZ &Vun Bar. . bon for immediate use. For it is well known that whisky that is ab. solutely pure requires age, care and attention, and our old Davenport whisky possesses-all the above qualities, The grain used in the distillation of our J. H. Davenport’ whisky is always selected. from the finest, richest and best grown in the State of Kentucky. The water is drawn from one of the finest limeliar properties which have gained for Kentucky whiskies such world-wide celebrity. This process makes our J. H. Davenport a pure, hand-made sour mash whiskv, and we claim that for delicacy of flavor, purity and medicinal qualities it stands unexcelled. Yours Truly, Scuuitz & VonpbarcEn, AFTER an experience of many years I have at last succeeded in finding a whisky (the J. H. Daven port) that: is absolutely pure and free from drugs. of any kind and which I can recommend for medicinal purposes, I will keep this whisky for sale in future. Call and try it. It is pure. You willlike it. Do. J. M. Manning, Drogas. Grass Valley, STRAIGHT WHISKY. Asa t+ deal has been said about John L.

Mike Hanley of Nevada City. We understand that Mr. Hanley has made a hase of some of the most expensive straight whisky that has. ever come.into the county. John L. Burns, the celebrated agent for ‘‘Davenport,” has been most fortunate in making such a fine sale to\such a responsible tlemen as Mr. Hanley, who has the reputation of kéeping tho finest liquor in the count When this invoice of straight whisky arrives Mr. Hanley can look for an increase of trade.
