We do not know what the Appeal will say when it reads the Bee’s last effort at “abuse,” which is headed “General Bidwell as a Water Monopelist,’’“as follows: General Bidwell bas notified the monepoly ? evterprisivg people of Batte, who are constructing ‘a V flnme to, convey the timber of the Sierra to Chico at cheap. r.tes,; that they shell not take or use any of the water of the streams, springs or rivalets;on any. . portion of the water shed that: falls into Chico creek! This water which the people ‘want to ‘utilize for this putpose is twenty-five to thirty miles away from. his lands, sperting in freedom oti the mountain's side, yet Gen. Bidwell claims it as hit own! And such .is the. chief candidate of the anti-monopoly party of California! Can, qur esteemed . friends of the Chico Enterprise or of the San Francisco Chronicle defend bim in Thus it appears that Gen. Bidwell is, not only aland monopolist but a water monopolist also; aud.be would,it seems, possess the water as héis said to possess the land—without just title! Would hold, it. ip fact as he holds the land, not to use it but to prevent others from mating it useful!

We do not know what the Appeal will say when it reads the Bee’s last effort at “abuse,” which is headed “General Bidwell as a Water Monopelist,’’“as follows: General Bidwell bas notified the monepoly ? evterprisivg people of Batte, who are constructing ‘a V flnme to, convey the timber of the Sierra to Chico at cheap. r.tes,; that they shell not take or use any of the water of the streams, springs or rivalets;on any. . portion of the water shed that: falls into Chico creek! This water which the people ‘want to ‘utilize for this putpose is twenty-five to thirty miles away from. his lands, sperting in freedom oti the mountain's side, yet Gen. Bidwell claims it as hit own! And such .is the. chief candidate of the anti-monopoly party of California! Can, qur esteemed . friends of the Chico Enterprise or of the San Francisco Chronicle defend bim in Thus it appears that Gen. Bidwell is, not only aland monopolist but a water monopolist also; aud.be would,it seems, possess the water as héis said to possess the land—without just title! Would hold, it. ip fact as he holds the land, not to use it but to prevent others from mating it useful!
