i “WORKED ITS OWN RUIN.
"The Narrow Guage freight depot
at this city is to berconsiderably enthat will be reSe
sunt of freight
-part of this _and_Yuba
counties, aid Sierra. The suicidal
course Marysville bas seen fit to pursue against. the has caused
the withdrawal of nearly. all their
from that town. “During
the summer months between fifty
and sixty teams have been running
Marysville. with
freight for the mines, but since the
leading people of that town have
declared ‘‘war to the knife and
knife tothe hilt” the miners freely
accept the sitaation and intend to
give blow for blow in every way,
shape and form that is within
their reach. Now all the miners’
business will come by way of this
city and it is not to be wondered at
that the more sensible people of
valley fanatics as the death blow ot
the town. Last Summer a great
deal of the upper country freight .
came this way, but the bulk of it
‘was carried by way of Marysville.
Many of the large” companies believed that the hostility was only
temporary and they would not make
any change, but are now convinced
they were in error and willin the
future give the grangers the cold
honlder. It will be of immense benefit to Nevada City in having the
fifty or sixty teams withdrawn from
Marysvi le and placed on the route
between here and the mining towns.
The Marysville people, or that is to
say the leading fanatics, have been
constantly asserting that the great
iP depreciation of property in their
town, which of oourse made. the
taxes: very high, was attributable to
slickens. The statement is false and
every intelligent or observing man
knows it, Property in Marysville
was held at good figures and taxes
were low upto the time that the
great crusade was made against hydreulic miners, avd in order ‘o
‘arouse the people to enist in the
fight all sorts of falsehoods were resorted to which caused the people
to become. demoralized, and believing the falschoods they commenced.
disposing of their property, and so
much being thrown upon the market
atonetime. resulted in a panic,
from the effect of which Maryeville
will never get over. The hue and
cry against the miners, which was'a
sham, had a contrary effect from
; what the fanatical grangers anticipated, Instead of the people putting their hands in their pockets to
assist. in fighting the miners they
thought if the outlook was as represented they had better pack up their
traps, sell out for what they could
get and land on more stable ground.
Not anticipating any such result an
attempt was made to quiet the about the brilliant prospects of the
town, and saying there was no danger of the town being inundated.
They declared they would soon stop
hydraulic “mining and everything
would be serene in another year.
It wasno go. ‘The people had unexpectedly taken them at their word
and ruin was the result. The min_isters of the gospel in preaching sermons on lying should point to the
destruction of Marysville.as a sampe. of what it did for that town.
The next fatal blow to Marysville
was the steady decrease of patronage
fromthe miners—until_ itis finally
all withdrawn. The heaviest houses
of that town were kept up by
patronage from the miners and one
by one they gave up business, which
was the final “straw that broke the
camel’s back,” _.

-WHYIMONEY ISs@ CLOSE.
Phere is, a. general complaint
throughout the county because of
the scarcity of money. In Nevada
City is this especially true. A
well-informed citizen in speaking of
the fact was at a loss to account for
the financial stringency. Mines of
all kinds are recovering from the setback that a portion of them received
a year or soago when the injunction fever was raging hottest. Here
at Nevada City both quartz and
gravel properties are doing well, and
their owners are disbursing at least a
thousand dollars a day to the 350
men (all white) that are employed in the various branches
of the gold producing industry.
hy upwards of thirty thousand
dollars in hard coin put afloat in the
community regularly every month
from one source alone should not
relieve any tightness is a point that
at first glance is hard to elucidate ;
but when we stop to think that the
great mass of these mining men are
supporting large families and at the
same time making themselves nice
and. anent homes here, we see
why money is not flowing around
like water, It is having a better use
found for it viz. the making of taxable property that_cannot be destroyed by putting it into one’s stomach or on one’s back. ~~

The Oregonian is grieved that
‘thalf a dozen falsehoods, calculated

being circulated by ‘‘Democratic understrappers.” The candidate is
fortanate who has only half a dozen
lies ouf against him. Oregon must
be a sort of political paradise. In
California half a dozen of the

are only a mild commencement, and
the thing gets worse as the campaign progresses.
