A Mere Matter of “Policy.”
A Grass Valley merchant~and-a
newspaper man at that town met.
“You know,” said the former, ‘‘that
the Transcrirt is telling the truth
about the monopoly, and could say
much more than it has yet without
misrepresenting. Why don’t you
stand in and endorse it?”
“That may all be’true,” was the
answer, “‘but it is not policy for us to
do so. There area good many things
that have tobe taken into consideration by the newspapers herein such a
case as this.” © ‘
“So I supposed from your actions,”
said the merchant ina significant tone

THEY GO INTO PRINT.
Reprosentatives ot the Miners in the Empire and North Star Publish a Card.
Eighteen miners who say in a card
to the Grass Valley Union that they
represent and speak for the entire
force of Empire and North Star employés, deny that they are compélled
té. buy: their groceries and. meats .of
Clinch & Co.
The card reads like a Union editorial, but of courseit cannot be authoritatively said that the Union’ writer
had a hand in the preparation of it.
The yenom that it expresses towards
the Transcrirt in certain portions is
one of the suspicious features about it.
Leaving out its misrepresentations of
what the Union calls the “live” paper,
the card says: ~
We deny that as employes-of the
North Star and Empire mines, we are
compelled to do our trading with
Clinch & Co. We patronize them on
the ground of common-sense, on the
ground of simple justice, on the ground
that one good turn. deserves another.
The principal’6f.that firm is the man
whose pluck and energy have created
every one of the positions we today occupy, and havé provided Nevada
county with two of its three hestpaying mining enterprises. We deny that
higher prices are charged for articles
at the store of Clinch & Co. than at
any other store in Grass Valley for
goods of an equal quality. We ‘deny
having countenanced in the smallest
degree the calling by anonymous parties of a meeting of miners: for last
Saturday night.: The originators of
that brilliant scheme have their own
folly and cowardice to thank for its ignominious ending. When it becomes
necessary for_us to call a public meeting in our own behalf, we shall do so
without concealing our identity and
without inducing a foolish stranger to
act as a cat’s paw for us.
In conclusion, we assure Mr. Bourn
that he is totally mistaken if he thinks
there is one decent, self-respecting
man among us who has any sympathy
with these petty and envious attempts
upon him and his Grass Valley interests. We hope he will think better of
the sentiments expressed in his recently published, letter, and that he
will at all times feel as kindly: towards
us as we do towards him.
Then follow the eighteen signatures,
as follows:
J. McLachlan, Henry Rickard, John
Nettle, J.Conroy, James Benney, William Carlyon, Charles Pearce, D: A.
McLean, Sam. Blight, Sam. Curnow,
John Toy, John Connors, D. 8. Collins,
Richard Williams, Thomas Trenberth,
Wm. Coomb.
It is not to be presumed that any
employe of the companies with a family to support would find it to his advantage to refuse his signature to this
or any similar card. :
Whatever the Transcripr has had
to say on this subject has been based
upon the authority of at least a dozen
of the leading and most substantial
citizens of Grass Valley, who furnished all the information and gave as a
reason for coming to this paper that
the papers of their. own town would
not for reasons best known to themselves engage in the discussion of it
unless the ice was broken by some of
theircontemporaries. ‘The informants
said further that their statements
. could be substantiated by affidavits
tion became such as to make that line
of evidence a necessity. The production of affidavits has not yet been
urged, because it is apparent that
whoever made them would be liable
to antagonize the combination and its
. Supporters and thus provoke an ill will
which might in some way prove inconvenient if not injurious.
This paper has not at any time entertained-improper sentiments towards
the firm of Clinch & Co. or any of its
individual members, and they know
it.” It is the principle upon which
they are alleged to conduct business
legitimate object of all the strictures
that can be heaped: upon it.
The common belief at Grass Valley
has been and still is that he starting
of agrocery store, butcher shop and
bank by Clinch & Co. was but the beginning of a movement. by ‘the same
firm to enter every branch of business
including hardware, clothing, dry
goods, etc., and thatthe firm would
be, in a position to dictate its own
prices and terms to the injury of Grass
Valley’s population.
Powerful ‘ mining corporations at
New Almaden; Plymouth and other
places have. done this thing, to the
detriment of everybodybut themselves, and the indications have been
that the Grass Valley combination
contemplate doing likewise.

Alf. Tregidgo has contracted for a

Complaint is frequently made by
those who use baking powders that
they léave in bread, biscuit, or cake
raised by them a disagreeable, bitter
taste. This taste follows the use of
all impure baking powders, and: is
caused either by their containing alum
(introduced: to make a cheap article),
by the impure and adulterated , character of other ingredients used, or
from the ignorance of their mannufacturers of the proper methods of combining them. These baking powders
leave in the bread a residuum formed
of lime, earth, alum, or other deleterious matters, not always, though frequently, tastable in the food, and by
all physicians classed’ as injurious to
health. The Royal Baking Powder
is free from this serious defect. In its
use no residuum is left, and theloaf
raised by it is always sweet, light, and
wholesome, and noticeably free from
the peculiar taste complained of. The
reason of this is because it is com‘posed of nothing but absolutely pure.

exactly the proper proportions of acid
and alkali to act: upon and destroy
each other, while producing the largest amount of rising power: We
are justified in this assertion from the
unqualified statements made by the
‘Government chemists, who after thorough and exhaustive tests recommended the “Royal” for Government use because of its superiority
over all others in purity, strength,
and wholesomeness. There is no
danger of bitter bread or biscuit where
it alone is used. é

Yesterday Afternoon’s Fire.
The dwelling house of Otto Amberg,
situated on Prospect Hill, was totally
consumed by fire yesterday afternoon.
The flames were discovered emerging
from the roof at. twenty minutes of
four, and before fourthe building was
in ruins. Mr. Amberg was working
at the Wyoming mine. His wife had
put dinner on to cook, and leaving a
fire in the stove gone with her children
to her mother’s house near the railroad depot to make a call. Sherman
Marsh was the first person to enter
the burning building. He saved some
of the bedding and. with assistance
carried out the stove. A few other articles, but none of importance, were
saved, the high south wind that prevailed and the character of the building (frame, with cloth-lined walls,)
making a quick fire. The house was
built about a yearand a half ago.
The loss approximates -$1,600; the -insurance being $900.
The Cloven Feet Sticking Out,
The Herald of Friday evening gives
the mine-store-butchershop-bank combination this severe thrust: ‘The
Grass Valley Union of yesterday contains a long card fréim the’ North’ Star’
and Empire miners. The card does
not smell of candle smoke, and contains so many long words we are curious to know who wrote it, who wanted
it written, and how the process of
signing was carriedon. Hard-handed
sons of toil who have had more years
of experience with hammers and drills
than minutes with a pen, are not in
the habit of saying ‘monopolistic proceedings,’ ‘ignominious ending,’’ ete.
Of course it is all right, but—itwould
have been better if the name of the
clerk had appeared among the other
names.”

Successfully Accomplished at the Blaomfield Mine by the Elevator Process.
See mene
Prosper Heurne, a well-known~ civil
engineer of San Francisco, publishes
the following: Cy
While on a recent professional visit
to Nevada county, I. was invited by TL.
L. Robinson, president of the North
Bloomfield gravel mine, to be present
at the trial of anew elevator, erected
with the object of carrying on hydraulic'mining by a new process. This
process was expected to provide wholly against the objectionable features of
the old* regime.” A practical trial of
this elevator not only impressed and
satisfied me with its-entire adaptability to the present wants of hydraulic
mining, but also similarly convinced
the following gentlemen, who were.
present and had an_ opportunity of
judging of its merits: Thomas Bell,
S. Williams, R. H. Campbell, J. H.
Turney, General Dobbie, S. Galavotti,
and other, gentlemen who were satisfied that the most sanguine expectations of the-inventor were realized in
demonstrating the ‘utility of the elevator as a practical method of extracting ore from auriferous gravel.
The elevator consists of a strong
metallic pipe of twenty-two inches ‘diameter, erected at an angle of sixty
degrees, eighty-five feet from the bottom .of .the main.channel.. At the
lower portion of this pipe there is a
strong monitor connecting with the
main branch of the water-feeding pipe,
and which delivers__1400_ miners’
inches of water, or 3,124,800 cubic feet
of water every twenty-four hours, with
a pressure of 530 feet. A second monitor, deliveritig 700 inches of water, is
excavating the gravel banks under the
old system. An approximate idea of
the amount of the work done by—this4
elevator can be had when it is borne
in mind that with the above 2100 miners’ inches of water, or a total of 4,687,200 cubic feet. every twenty-four
hours, 2300 cubic yards, or 3066 tons
of gravel are washed in the same time.
Undoubtedly this amount could be
very materially increased by using a
second excavating monitor,
At the foot of the gravel bank a
ditch is made in the bedrock in which
the gravel tumbled by the 700 inches
of water above mentioned is led to the
bottom of the elevator, where both
gravel and water are taken up by the
great momentum of the 1400 inches of
water forced through the first monitor
at the bottom of.the elevator. The
momentum acquired by the 1400 inches of water under that pressure of 530
. feet is so powerful that the velocity of
the gravel and water reach the head of
the sluice with such an initial velocity
as to dispense with the usual grade of
ordinary sluices,, The gravel is pulverized by their mutual friction and
also by the friction with pine blocks
laid in the bottom of said sluice.
A sluice 2400 fect long, 5 feet wide
and 3 feet high, with a fall in every
100 feet of 2 inches, is lined at the
es square by 13 inches thick. Through
this sluice’ the débris is carried, by
successive additions and change of direction, all over the immense superficy at the former excavation, the gold
settling and being retained in the’
sluices between the blocks. The
above new process of elevation has
also. been successfully. operated and is
now adopted and used by R. H.
Campbell in Quartz Valley, Siskiyou
county.; Owing to there being
no objection of the authorities, the debris is dumped into the Klamath riyer. Here the work is carried on with
3500 inches of water through a sluice
1000 feet long, 6 feet wide and 3 feet
high, the bottom of which ig line¢
with pine blocks 2 feet square and 9
inches thick. The inclined pipe, 22 inches in diameter, is made. of heavy
sheet iron lined. with’ 114 inch cast
iron. A portion of the gravel mined
at this claim is washed by the old
‘process, the other portion being treated by the new elevator. Mr. Campbell, in speaking of the latter, was
loud in its praises, and expressed regret in not having the elevator in use
long before. In view of the briliiant
success that has attended this new departure in hydraulic mining, an era of
‘prosperity and a return to former brisk
times can be safely counted upon by
the many interior towns and mining
camps where the stoppage of hydraulic mining has paralyzed business activity by depriving the miners of their
avocation. Moreover, the success that
has attended the use of the elevator
conclusively shows that hydraulic mining canbe actively pursued without
detriment to agricultural lands.

Richard Pascoe, Formerly of This County,
Killed—Three Other Miners Hurt.
By an acer that occurred Friday
morning in the Chollar mine on the
Comstock, Richard Pascoe, formerly
of this county, was killed, and M. P.
McDonald, Luke Quinlan and John
McCabe were seriously hurt.
The engineer at the Sharon shaft
had hoisted the miners on the 11
o’clock shift to the tunnel level through
the north compartment shaft. The
cage in the north compartment had
stuck in the guides and he was taking
up the slack of the cable. At that instant the cage in the south compartment began descending rapidly, The
engineer immediately applied the full
force of the brake, but the headway
ol the descending cage could _not_-be
entirely checked before it—struck—the
bottom of the shaft with great force.
Men immediately descended
through the north compartment and
found the.four men above mentioned
piled.in a promiscuous heap in'the
bottom of the south compartment.
They .were brought to: the surface,
and it was at first thought ‘that none
of them were fatally injured, although
Pascoe vomited blood, indicating that
he had been injured internally. He
was removed to his lodgings on the
Divide, where ‘he died a few hours
after the accident.
McDonald was :taken to his. .residence-east_of the Chollarworks.——It
is thought that his injuries will not
prove serious, As far as ascertained
none of the quartette had a bone broken. i a
Quinlan” was less severely injured
than his companions, escaping with a
bruised ankle,° while McCabe was
thought to be only slightly bruised.
Miners working in the Sharon shaft
reach the station 250 feet*below the
surface through a tunnel running in
over the Chollar shaft. .The men had
come in through the tunnel to the 250
station in.tie Sharon shaft, and seeing the cage at the station stepped on
its deck to descend to the 450 level at
ly set. as it lacked 15 minutes of the
time to lower the morning shift. The
