Daily Transcript. : a COUNTY and CITY OFFICIAL PRESS, {FURSPAY, JULY 10, 1866. THe Press AnD THe Mives.—The press of this State, which of all-other agences should exert most -influence for the welfare of the State, has, in too many in' gtunees been the meuns of retarding the dedevelopment of the boundless resources which Jay: hidden in the earth, The rumored rich discoveries in distant districts have been given undue importance, and thousands of enterprising laborete have been induced to’leave the State by the highly colored reports of the press, and the history of this periodical emigration has ever boos marked. by broken constitutions and ~ “wquandered fortunes. On the roade’to Frazier, New Greunda, and vther distant “places, thousands of newly made graves told the story ofthe poverty, bardebip and death of many ahardy miner. While the restless spirit was encouraged by the press, in many instances our State mines were épuken of as being worked out. Business was reputed as prostrated, towns as deserted, and the very results which were brought. ébout by the exaggerated state ments of the immense wealth in distant parts were used 4s arguments for the de~ gline and approaching ruin of the State.— Thus, with our flourishing mining towns depopulated, immigration was checked, and for a long time the State population decreased rapidly. Throughout all this time the few men who were still contident of the richness @f our mines, struggled on with little encouragement and without the aid of Capital, which was being sent out of the State, to be lost in fruitless attempt to develop distant districts. Labor bas at last triumphed, and the hundreds of new mines opened and'new mills erected within the past twelve months, show how ehort-sighted ‘were those who predicted the ruin of the State. There have been a few of the State Journals, such as the Sac. Union, and othera that might be named, that never joined in this croaking about exhaused mines and impending ruin, Sach journals have a part in the great results which have been accom. plished during the past year, and their services should not be forgotten by the people ofthe State. With the pressin the »gricultural sections of this State a petty jealousy soome to exist, tua limited extent, tigainst the mining portions of the State, and too frequently the readers of sach papers are informed that the election of State officers from mining counties will be detrimental to the agricultural interests, and that the interests of miners will be advanced to the neglect of the agriculturist: Away with such contracted sectionalism from which these views emanate, ‘Ihe farmer has an equal: interest in the development of the mines with the wan who uses the pick and shovel, and the growing towns and flourishing valleys of the State should be the pride alike of the miner and the agriculturist. The miners have acknowledged on every occasion the importance uf the development of the agricultural resources of the State, as will be shown by the votes of their representatives in awarding premiums to the amount of 8100,000 fur the encouragement of agriculture, The opinion is constantly gaining ground, that the two great interests of the State are not adverse to each other, but that one depends upon the other, and ~ that neither can be discouraged or neglected without injury to the other The wining interest ia yet young and comparatively lit tle understood, The recent cftorts inCengress to tax the gold mines and exempt the lead, copper aud iron mines from taxation, -and the iguorance shown in the discussion of our mineral intereste, proves how incom petentare many ot our best nen to legiv. late intelligeatly tor the best interest ot this greatand growing State. A “false step at this time may be a fatalone, and tie wish ~ @e-and interests of winers should not b. mistaken or mistepresented.© A mistake: policy by the Government way turn back the tide of progress ten years, and under auch a misfurtere, agriculture, mercantile, and all other State intereets would suite: alike With the mines) We hope the f ul. finders of the press will. cease their croskings, and unite their efforts te advance the Dest Inthredta Of the’ State. With a hber . policy towards miners, and encouragement intheic hard labor, they will bx enabled iu a twelve-month more to make the yield of our mines larger than it has ever been be fore. Tae, Nevava County Mivgs.— We have before alluded to the intelligent course of the Spirit of the Times, in regard to the mineral) interests of the States The editor of that paper, Marcus D Boruck, is now visiting this county, and in Inet week’s Spirit he gives an excellent article upon the “Richness of our Mines.” After speaking of the boundless wealth of the State, and the great importance of her intérests, and how little pur wants dre understood, he says in speaking of the debates in Congress : aaa If there were any dtubts as.to the ignorance ‘of the people abrvad as to the true wealth and position of California, just let a reasonable person read .the details of the proceedings in Congress, in regard to the taxation of the mines. ‘The most lamenta. -ble ignorance and blockheudisin_is displayed in every particular, and though the State is in the twentieth year of its existence and we have had senators and representatives there at every sessian, the actual facts relating to California are-not known to—those who should be in a position to properly legislate for her; As we have betore argued, it would be far better for California to send a duly accredited minister to Washington, to properly represent the interests of the State and of the people, than to trouble ourselves about a representative being in the cabinet, The editor alludes to his visit to our county wines, as follows : During the last three weeks we have visited:the most extensive mining region that there is on the Pacific coast at the present writing. We allude to Nevada county, where mining is not confined to a ledge hait a mile in Jength, but extends throughout its length and breadth. But it is a foolish supposition to entertain that they can be worked without labor aud capital., A number Jf those now paying splendidly were worked years ago, but on account of the limited means possessed by those who located them, and not being able to procure the proper machinery, gave them up fora time. It is seldom that a regivn of country like that in the countny of which we speak abounds so plentifully in rich ore, but we believe the time will come when Amador and Plumas counties will dispute the palar with Nevada.) Had Professor Whitney, who has been paid enormous sums from the Treasury of the State for geological pursuits and investigations, been alittle more communicative and open in regard to the immense wmineral wealth of California, it would have been better for the State. It always occured to us that the main idea of a State geolegist tor California was siwnply to let a few men know (especially friends) who had meney, where they could increase their wealth.— Such men as Haward, the Watts, Rose, Fricot, Woodworth, Rush, the Reis, Atwood, aud a host of others we might mention, have done more to develop the resources of the State than all the geological expeditions ever fitted out. Space will not permitus in this issue to speak in detail of the mines in Nevada county, but in our next we shall resume the subject.
