THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT. . NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA. Established. .Séggember 6, 1860. What the Miners yg Do. r ——_* Inasmuch that the new Constitu_* tion gives to-future Legislatures that may assemble at Sacramento completd control of water in this State, it béhooves the mining’ counties to take zome concerted attion which ‘ willrésult in their sechiring ‘a fair ‘ representation in those bodies, and especially the first one that meets “under the new regime. To atcom~~ Pilish the neéded “object, we” must choose delegates who are fitted by long practical experience in matters pertaining to thé mining -industry : men who have either been -difectly connected with the busitess, or who Wave identified theif interests so closely with it that they havea thorough-understanding of its _importance and the means required to guarantee its coutinued prosperity. We must send legislators who are inteli‘gent enough to express our wants in a clear-and forcible manner, and who possess sufficient stamina and influence to stand up boldly for our rights, and not subsidetill their efforts have bedn crowned with -syccess. None of us are so dull but what . . We’can foresee the dreact effects sure to follow the act of giving over the control of the Legislature to the cow counties: The supremacy of the latter-would enable them to advance ‘ ‘their‘own interests at the expense of the “gold:prodnding sections. They: want the water to flow unmolested from’ the Sierras to their farms,— ‘’ Along the way are located thousands of honest and industrious miners to whoin the temporary use of this wa-ter as it passes them is everything. Without having it for hydraulicing, sluicing and propelling purpose, wé *pould do absolutely nothing. Mining claims would lose their values, and coustitute nothing less than “waste land ; the population would become discouraged and seek other fields of labor. If Judge Keyser’s recent decision should be sustained, it would. “be vain to hope for much less perni-' -* ciousresults Close up the minesthat he seeks to restrain from depositing tailings in‘Bear River and its tributaries, and the: precedent ‘would be established for ruining every enter" prise of the kind in the State, for with scarcely an exception the debris. « ¢rom quartz as well as gravel élaims * ‘finds its level'in the cow counties,—Do this, and in less than‘a year it would be a_ difficult matter to find a settlement in the‘county that would not afford a theme for ahother ‘Deserted Village” poem. Every mining section-of the State would-be more or less affected in a ‘like way. It is a subject that demands serious consideration and ‘emphatic action of the miners. If We ‘reinain’ inactive, thegrangers will secure not-only the Legislature, but also the Supreme Court, “ San’ ' Francisco, knowing as she does that their success and our defeat would. loose to her a great deal, while on the other hand she-would gain noth“ing by it, stands ready to give aid in defeating the conspiracy by which a few powerful counties hope to gain unrestricted contral of the ‘water. With San Francisco’s aid we can put enough of the right stripe of.men in the” legislative’ jind” juditiary bodies to deter the farmers from ‘carrying out the programme they had in conterhplation when they gave their solid stipport to the new Constitution. ‘ La Then let us not, in Nevada and other mining countiés, fall ott “and wrangle over a partisan bone. As ‘a house divided against itself must fall, so the miners pulling ‘in various’ ’di“rections can accomplish ‘nothing. It is necessary that they shouldstand shoulder to shoulder all over Califory nia, and not go in different paths as Republicans, Democrats and Work~ingmen, The old party lines neéd not be permanently wiped out, nor ‘should they. The fight should be’ made on our side by the: miners. of California, as it is to be on.the other by the farmers of the State. : : tee eeeA, Bloody Far Fetched Joke. ad aah We export live beef to .Jngland and bring back English stakes, —Ex“Well, is hae moet we should ? , May 24th, 1879. . . es from the locality whero the crime Sag Soipemne the conclud = b+ ©) he Baptist Sectals~ * ‘The social given by the ladies of the Baptist Church Thursday _evening wag well attended and thoroughly enjoyable.

There is-at-present on exhibition in. San*Francisco a gold amalgamator which, it is claimed, amalgamates earth, gravel, pulp, mill tailings and. ‘black sand readily, and in a most thorough manner.

It has a ‘rotary pump attached, which enable’ ‘it to use the water an indefinite number of times and will, consequently, be . found invaluable where that article. is scarce. The cost of running does: not exceed twenty-five cents per ton in excess of handling the material. The loss of precious metals either in gold or quicksilver is very small, and it is claimed fully ninety per cent of the gold can be saved. Workingmen’s Meeting To-Night. ‘?

Show meas single honest man that was ever elected to any office by its support, and you can cut off my right hand. Every one knows the Chronicle elected the last Legislature, and I defy any one to select a worse crowd of: ruffians.
