'.toffered ‘to build dams for them to
z atay the debris ; the State attempted
to build the dams and before they
. had’ been thoroughly tested some/ body catised them to be destroyed.
. No miner or friend of the miner committed such a devilish act. “Dam
. the dame” is one of the strong granger cards, — When the San Francisco
diggings they were shown.a place
:svhere adam could be ‘erected which
; would hold the tailings until the
. . last foot. of mining ground on the
x4 Ridge ‘was washed away. Gen,
";,,Besecranz and Hamilton Smith, two
_, first-class engineers, who were with
ithe: ‘committee, agreed that a dam
“' lat that particular point was practica“ble and could be made to last for
, \cemturies. His Honor Geo. Oblyer,
nt [ene spokesman for the yrangers, and
i ‘. whid was aleo with the party, listened
“very attentively to what -the. engi. neers said, and after consulting with
a friend, who also’ traveled with the
‘committee, said: “I do.-not think
“Cour people “would feel safe, if the
dams were. built.. They have no
faith in dams. If the dams should
§ fi : Happen to give away, we would be
in @ worse fix than we are now.”
The whole thing in a nutshell was
just. this:” “The hydraulic mines
must be shut down and the grangers
__ will never consent to have the dams

tile ition that ‘nothing short. of

“Bee are constantly asserting that the

falsifying, In fact, it seems impossible for any of the anti-mining crew
to open -theirmouths without at_ tempting to. utter unmitigated lies.
» Siphey will continue to fight the minerg 98long as any one will take their
“promise to pay,” and when that
is played out they will find themselves without ranches and the hydraulic mines still in operation.

' This is more destructive than all
other follies, for it lowers the substantial business for the worst purposes; builds “‘castles in the air,” at
the expense of legitimate mining;.
. for no honest citizen car reedily know
the one from the other, until he
finds his cash buried in the foul catacombs of such mines. Thus bitten
he becomes vindictive, and his future
life is devoted to one continual howl
against mining, when the miner had
nothing to do wit him or his losses.
2. igen and smelting prematurely,
Mills are often introduced by market minerslto blind the stockhol ters
and the outside public. from whom
they would have still more victims.
In this country, however, the more
straightforward miners have in many
instances sent forward mills in ridiculous haste, before they knew, or
even endeavored to know, if the vein
existed, or continued, for quantity
or quality of m‘neral. In fact, the
rule has been to erect them as assay“ng, not reduction works.
3. Far too little, of mining.
Tn all minerali:ed veins, the qua’ity and quantity varies very materially in diferent sections thereof so
that shafts end levels should be sunk
and driven for the exposition of the
vein; for it cannot be expected to
expose its best in the chance surface
croppings. So, too, when found
mineralized in profitable quantity
just where you are, it. should be
further explored, to astertain its extent, betore mills or smelting works
are obtained or erected for its reduction; or the costs of such unnecessarz means will be enti-ely wasted,
You cannot lose by we ting, under
any circumstances; and in case of success, ample reserves will greatly favor the realization from the mine,

the retarding force is wasted; as it
might, by double or balanced draught
be economized for hosting the aséending car, either in the same, or in
another shaft. The load of an engine being also lessened thereby, a
‘greater economy is realized from a
superior degree of expansion.

men have neither innate superiority,

The Gold Run Case.
The Bee repeats that Jadge Temple will soon deliver his decision in
the Gold Run case. It eays the ninety
days from the time it was ostensibly .
submitted to him will be up on June
7th, but the attorneys had thirty
days from the adjournment of the
Court to file briefs, and we learn that
the ninety days would not begin to
rua until the briefs were filed, Besides, Judge Temple had been months
from his own county and the _ business in his Court was of course ys
hind and had to be brought'up,
that he could not at once enter one
the consideration of the Gold Run
case. There were many hundreds of
pages of testimony to be studied,
many decisions of other Courts to
which reference was made and that
had to be examined, and great care
would be required in writing the
opinion—for it is the first of the
kind in the State, will be widely
and closely criticised, and may be~
come a text for all that are to follow.
The case is likely to go to the Snpreme Court, however Judge Temple
may decide, and he would naturally
be ‘anxious to so fortify his opinion
that it should stand the scrutiny and
test of that high tribunal ; henee, all
these things considered, it cannot
well be.said that the Judge has frittered away-any time as yet.
