Senator Johusoa has introduced .tiwo bills into the State Senate, which’ gaz. The bills da nof~eved single at hydrauhke mining. rites prohibit: -’ vris from “the mines,” Any per‘son whor runs debris from the mines avy other one engaged in that busia4 those having ne connection with his (court, and the common law, -as expounded by that tribunal. Underit, any one man en the margin ‘of a stceam below, can have al the min-, ang for hundreds: of square ‘miles! stoppel ab once, anlin ove suit: ‘To a3 easy as lying, if dhis bill is passed. ‘The companion bill has al these objectional features and some pecnliar to italf. I$ says the case “‘aball b: tried where $he injury is dove.” No matter if the judge is, brother-or father of the p’aintiff; no matter if every man in the county has expressed an opinion on the case—-f the atthat it,can be.cat with a stil the case must be tried right there, ad-all power to move 1uice knife, taken away. . The right to an impartial trial is secured to every eriminal, except miners, Thay are to be outlaws. Again, by .this bill any “former mining can be panished. It abolishes any limitatiea ef persecution: Any one who has Contributed to make debris heretofore is liable to suit. Vengeance is to search out the offending o1 all past time, and the have retained any,—if. they havenot expended them all in buying grub of ‘the farmers and the dealers in Sacramento,which has the honor of sending Johnson to the Legislature, — all that they have left is to go to crim3 of mining. “counties let either of these bills’ pass constituents, Their passage would bs a blistering disgrace on every one ofthem. Pasa these bills and. the mav ef mining counties can be rolled up. Our. members should exert themselves, besiege committees,make combinations, give ne favor to any section or interest that will not aid them todefeat,these infamous bills! and prevent thegrremediable ruin of their constituents. A strong, compact minority, werking together and Stata Benry May. A former resident of this city, now living in San Francisco, writes that our informant is correct about Henry Hay, except that he was convict«ton the trial for killing the miner with whom he had # dispiite about a claint. He was prosecuted by A. A. Margent, then District Attorney, and defended by Col. Baker,and was convicted @f.‘‘homicide by misadventure iu dog an unlawful act,” and sen_tenced to the State Prison for,one year, The case excited great res est, and the Court room was filled with ladies who sympathized with Mrs. Hay. Some of the dear creatures refused for a long while tov forgive the Pistrict Attorney for “‘prosecuting so hard,” Hay was pardoned . by Gov. Low. of ——.
