THE ANTI-DERRIS CONVENTION.
This convention, lately in session
at Sacramento, is not likely to be
productive of much good if the sentimenteuttered by the speakers represent the feelings of the valley people. Both their speeches and the
resolutions_express nothing but
blind hostility to the mining interests. In fact, that body might be
compared to a Spanish ‘‘torro”’ ir-ritated at the sight of a very small
red hankerchief. He shuts his eyes,
bellows frightfully, paws the earth
and finally charges upon the fence
of his corral and retires with a sore
head. This is likely to be the result of the convention unless more
moderate counsels prevail, It will
be observed that the tenor of the
resolutions point to more litigation
and all remedial measures are ignored. We fail too see any resolution endorsing Col. Mendell’s ‘recommendation, or. supporting our
delegates in Congress, in asking
Government aid to protect our river
channels; neither do we find a resolution acting upon the recommeda«
tions of blackmail.
tion. of the Board of Trade, of San
Francisco, suggesting a conference
of parties representing the two interests, The disclamer of any intention tointerfere with quartz and
drift mines is very ingenious, and is
intended as “a sop to Cerebus.”
While itis apparent that no immediate hostility is contemplated
against that class of miners, it is
evident that they are only reserved
to be devoured last. Any legislation or any legal decision adverse
‘to the right to mine by the hydraulic process must necessarily be fatal
to all mines putting muddy water
in ‘the streams, and renders such
companies liable to extortion and
blackmail, Mines of that class are
sometimes the subjectof negotiations
for sale of their ground. How easy
it is to bring a suit or procure one to
be brought bysome Attorney-General
or Board of Supervisors, and thereby
cloud atitle. We know of one instance where these tactics have
been pursued and a company heavily
blackmailed under the threat to de:
feat a sale. We do not believe that
the present convention would sanction such proceedings, but on their
adjournment their affairs are likely
to be managed by a ring who have
already shown their hands,
if we may credit an article in the
Alta California of May 5th. We
submitt that the proceedings of the
Convention look like-the --development of an immense legal bonanza with some stringers {and indicaTHE MINERS CONVENTION.
The suggestion made by the Transcript that the miners of the State
hold a convention at an early date is
very apt to be acted upon, The
Grass Valley Union says the miners
could by holding sucha convention,
“bring the whole matter before the
people in its true light, and let the
voters of San Francisco and other
large cities know just how the matter stands; also pass contra resolutions to those adopted by the farmers who are trying to ruin so great
an interest in the State as that f
hydraulic mining, which is far more
valuable than twenty times the land
it basin the least damaged. As
the matter now stands the hydraulic
miners have certainly been miarepresented tothe people of the State of
California,”

THE LATEST NEWS.
Parnell, Dillon and and O’Kelly have
arrived in London.
There is ho cessation of the antiJewish disturbances in Russia.
The rumor of ah outbreak of the
Bannocks and Shoshones is discredited at army headquarters.
The latest intelligence is to the
_ effect that the De Long pirty have
been found—they were all dead.

THE ANTI-MINERS.
The Alta says of the late anti-mifers convention at Sacramento: In
spite of ample advertising, it seems
to have been a failure. The speakers complain of the indifference and
apathy of ‘the Sacramento people.
According to the Record-Union the
entire attendance was only 185 persons, and “‘exceedingly few business
men of the city were present—a fact
that was commented upon.”
The truth is, that the intelligence
and property interests of Sacramento
are opposed to the action taken by
the Board of Supervisors of thecounty in bringing suits against the mines,
and in paying exorbitant fees to one
particular lawyer. The last Grand
Jury of the county commented in the
most severe terms upon this action
of the Supervisoral ring, for, according to current report, this favored
lawyer did not keep all his huge fee
to himself, and there were hopes besides that the miners would pay. $10,000 cash rather than have suits instituted against them. We understand that the miners were told that
even less than $10,000 would secure
them immunity. However, the iminers would not pay blackmail, and
hence these honest men of Sacramento must limit their pickings to
the pockets of their own county,
The resolutions adopted by this
Convention state that 100,000 acres
of valley land have been destroyed
by slickens, The real facts are that
about 50,000 acres have been injured
—not destroyed—all of which in
time can be brought back to its old
agricultural value. Assuming, however; this statement tobe true,and
that each acre was worth $60, we
have a total loss, as-the result of mining for the past thirty-four years, of
$6,000,000. During this period the
product of gold has been about $1,200,000,000, or 200 times the amount
of damage inflicted. The annual output of the California mines is now
about $20,000,000, or three times the
agricultural loss since 1848.
The resolutions say nothing whatever about the permanent stone dams
proposed by Colonel Mendell in his
lagt report to Congress. Their spirit
is simply one of hostility to the mining industry, and a desire to ruin instead of to cure,
These few farmers of Sutter and
Yuba counties seem to think that
they can control the politics of the
State, and they make ‘slickens the
main issue in the coming political
campaign. They apparently forget
that there are fifteen counties in the
State, with an aggregate population
of 130,000 souls, where mining is by
far the leading industry ; and that
the voters in these mining counties
may have something to say ‘when
election comes on, providing either
of the political parties should be foolish enough to make hostility to the
mines » plank in its platform.
We notice that nothing is said,
either in the resolutions or speeches,
about the injury to physical health
caused by the wicked miners. A far
more serious--charge,; however, —is
made against these enemies of the
Commonwealth, and that is, that
they are injuring the cause of religthat baptism has been abandoned,
and the people in the slickens region are short of ca$h with. which to
properly pay the preachers of the
Gospel. Hence, many valuable souls
are in much danger of going to that
place unmentiontoble ears polite.
Wicked Rome.
An article recently-appeared inthe
TRANSCRIPT speaking of Mlle. Nevada’s engagement at Rome, wherein
occurred this passage: ‘‘Her vocalization is wonderful; her trills, her
smoryature, her picchellati are perfect.” To this—the Daily Exchange
adds: ‘‘Now, this is really too much,
We hesitate about mentioning a lady ’s smoryature in polite society, but
her picchellati—oh, shame! Why,
every good Christian knows it isa
sin-even to think about sucha thing;
but to put it in print—well, Rome
is a deuce of a place for loose morals.”

Got Cleaned Out.
The Virginia City Enterprise has
found an old Comstocker who in er.

-bag of fifty dollar octagonal slugs

where a tremendous monte game

The Transerirt styles the Sacra

‘grand pow-wow.” Well, we are

debris for the past ten years.
PRACTILR WHAT YOU PREACH.
: (Record-Union.)
“Virtue has many preachers but
few martyrs.” It was illustrated
here recently when at a mass meet
ing, called to promote an ulleged
virtuous cause that calls for some
self-sacrifice, but 100 persons attended.
A SURE THING,
(8. F. Daily Report.)
Nevada county is the only locality
in the State that has thus far had the
courage to deal properly with the
invading Chinese, In Nevada City
they moved the Chinatown outside
the city limits, and throughout the
county a peaceful agitation has, with
the exception of one hydraulic enterprise, driven the pigtails out of th»
mines. Now it is propused to boycott the heathen, and it’s a sure
thing that the method will succeed.
GIVE HER AYOTHER CHANCE;
(San Jose Mercury.)
It does not become a Christian
community to place its hell of crushing condemnation upon an erring
and foolish young girl, who, through
the’ duplicity of some man who
should have been her guide, protector and friend, may have brought
upon her life unutterable woe. Give
her another chance, say we, and we
but echo the teachings of one whose
heart was over overflowed with tender sympathy for the erring penitent. Insuch cases as that which
is now the theme of many tongues
in this community, woman usually
sins through her love nature, which,
when not perverted, is the crowning
glory of her life—man sins generally
through his baseness and perfidy,
