Tenia County. Wil Pres a gr oe Daily, Mondaye Except, BROWN & CALKINS. “SUNDAY, JANUARY e 1884, ; : The annual treasuré statement of Wells, Fargo & Co., shows the yield of gold from our .Califormia mines in 1883 was $13,841,297, as against the yield in 1882 of $16,800,000, showing a reduc tion of $2,958,703 -in our gold yield during the past year. The yield of 1881 was abniit $18,200,000, showing during the past two years & falling off of $4,358,703, or nearly $200,000 per month. This is due entirely to the senseless crusade against the hydrauiic miues, by far the must important gold producing industry of our State. We venture the prediction that the gold yield for 1884 will be sixty. per cent, less than it was in 1883. There is no doubt but that the gold producing industry of our State can be made continuous and profitable to the extent of about a million and abalf dollars per month, without detriment to any other interests, in fact with benefit to all of them, if _ properly cared’ for. But with such a sweeping decision as the receut one of Judge Sawyer, whichis in our opinion against the law and the facts and stretched to conform to his own prejudices and the grangersentiment of afew counties, itis quite clear’ from the: foregoing statement of Wells, Fargo & Co, that with more thillions of gold if our gravel chaanels than have yet been extracted our production will soon be reduced to afew millions yearly and, if the decree of the learned Ju ige is litera.ly enforced, these few millions will soon be reduced to a few hundred thousand, and an industry which has made our empire during a generation, aud which has turned: 1,500 millions of gold into the commercial channels of the world during that time, will soon be among the things that were, although there is known to still be seven times more gold in these gravel channels than has ever been extracted. This fact is judicially found. by Judge Sawyer iv the Woodruff decision wherein he says : ‘Approximately then, according to the evidence over 100,000,000 of cubic yards in these mives [the Yuba mines] have been washed out by the hydraulic process and 700,000,000 inore cubic yards remain tu be washed out.” As it is demoustrated by the testimony in the above case that the product of the State from the discovery of gold to the preseut time aggregated 1500 million of dollars, of which two thirds was from hydraulic mining, it follows as a conclusion that 709 million dollars worth of gold remains in the ground, mostly on the tributaries of the Yuba and Feather, which we are prohibited from extracting by the ‘‘one —tman power” 80 arbitrarily exercised by a United States Circuit Judge. It looks, now, as if oar agricultural resources this year would be seriously reduced, and if this reduction in our resources isadded to the reduction in our gold yield consequent upon this learned Judge’s unjust and partisan decision, we fear that “‘hard times” are upon us, It has become the fashion almost emong the grangéra and their friends to decry the mining industry, as we think foolishly, for there is no doubt whatever il wise counsels prevailed in thei ranks and any disposition was exhibited towards a settlement of the isaues between the mountains ‘and the . _ valleys, that means could be devised to allow the gold product to ‘again swell our resources, But with such . extreme views as were expreesed: by our Circnit Judge who has ‘‘outHeroded Herod,” and who has literally attempted to crush out the gold producing iudustry of our State, it is. much to be feared that until another and more impartial Judge or tribunal is appealed to our gold crop will be reduced to a minimum and be of little value or interest‘to us or the nation inany way, One thing is quite certain, which is that the anti-mining litigation of the past year has reduced @ur gold crop in excess of the most extreme and par, tisan values placed upon the debris. covered lands as stated by our State Engineer in his report upon this matter to the Legislature. It isto be regretted that Judge Sawyer saw fit, in zeal for the * anti-miners, to gofar ashe has done in seeking to efush out an industry which has placed him 1n his present -position: Had" he taken a proper view of the great issues submitted to him and cleared his mind of the narrowed groove in which it runs, he had the power, as it was. an equity case, to have rendered a d Vstr {ed antil he finally stated, which is erroneous, that the engineering dams to have settled all. questions. . He has always been regarded by us }.as a man of marked prejudices, and on reading hie decision we can only onger apd strougeras he Progress: mony was go divided upon the question of impounding dams that he could not froin it arrive at a conclusion, mony is that it if overwhelming in stating that impounding dams can be built avd will answer the purpose. Had Judge Sawyet . oceupied the Court Tudyes who decide to suit the everehanging views of the public, we could have perhaps comprehended 'why his decision was so harsh and partisan that it practically holds -up the miners as a éet of criminals. But occupying as’he does a. poeition above such time-servers we are at a” loss to coiiceive why he should have so far gone out of his way, as be has dove, to destroy an industry which has made him what he thinks he is and has placed him where he -is. His long decision upon a critical examination does him no credit, for he has gone too far. He .has found every fact and legal point raised by the miners a set of shams, and we really wonder he. did not stamp them with the stigma of being about, the worst set of criminals ever known, His uniform decisions in favor of the Railroad Companies had led the pubj'¢ to believe he hid no respect. for newspaper clamors; ‘but’ hisensy compliance to the demands of the AntiDebris Association and its jour‘rance of the facts developed by the testimony, is strong proof to ns that he is not exémpt from this influence when not backed by.an allprey corporation.
