What It Has Cost Yuba County to Fight the Miners. looking over the minutes of the business done by the Yuba County Supervisors within the past few years. On September 5, 1831, a _petition from citizens was filed asking that a suit be brought by Yuba county against the hydraulic miners in the county to compel them to desist from dumping debris inté the rivers and streams. The matter was referred to the District Attorney for his opi::ion as to the authority of the Board in the case. On October 4, ‘Tss1, he gave to the Board his opinion that the Board of Supervisors had power and authority to bring the suit. On the following day the Board authorized District Attorney Howser to commence legal proceedings against all persons emptying debris into the Yuba river or its tributaries, said proceedings to be begun and prosecuted in behalf of the county of Yuba, provided that the Anti-Debris Association provide counsel to assist the District Attorney without expense to the county for such assistant counsel. The Boardon May 3d and 4th, 1882, as Committee of the Whole, attended an anti-debris convention at Sacramento. Of course the salary and expenses of the Supervisors, -amounting to about $100, was paid by the county. In 1882 expenditures for debris cases were made as follows: EXPENDITURES IN 1882.

A large amount of money has been expended through private channels and subscribed by private parties which has not come before the eyes of the public, The Democrat goes on to say: ‘‘After all this expense and trouble it seems that the Yuba river, which rans by our doors, ig not in much better condition than IN ITS OWN LIGHT. The Grass Valley Union and Its Relations to the Public. eee The Nevada Transcript seems to be much concerned as to the manner in which Clinch & Co., merchants of this place, conduct their business, and expresses surprise that the Union is not burying itself in like manner. The Union is wilting that the live paper at the county seat shall enjoy a monopoly of this kind of journalistic enterprise. —Grass Valley Union. , 4 That the Union should take such a position,is most amazing. If one Nevada county paper more than another should grasp the Grass Valley monopoly bull by the horns, it is the Union. It has. not been very long since a newspaper man of Grass Valley said he wished the merchants there were as liberal in advertising as are those of Nevada City. ‘How du you account for the fact that they are not?” asked a bystander. : “The very class of customers to be reached under ordinary circumstances by advertising,’’. was the reply, ‘‘are to agreat extent compelled to trade at the business places owned by men,they work for, and they dare not. buy elsewhere no. matter what inducements are offered them todo so. Their employers’ store is sure of their trade anyway, and hence it does not need to. advertise.’’ Yes, the Grass Valley Union is not among those who suffer least by the existence of the grasping combination. Let the reader take a copy. of that paper and one of the Transoripr. Compare the two carefully. Note the difference in the number and class of advertisements of the two. Such proof speaks louder than words. Let the principle be once established that every miner employed in Grass Vally district can trade where and with whom he pleases, and the merchants there would compete energetically for the business. They would need space in the advertising columns of the Union to explain the advantages over competitors that they have to offer. The Union stands in its own light when it takes sides with any combination that is detrimental to the interests of miners and merchants of its town. The fact'that a warm personal friendship exists between the editor of the Union and members of the firm of Clinch & Co., if such relations are sustained between the parties, should cut no figure in the matter, so far as the Union’s course is concerned, Perhaps no men in the ccunty feel kindlier or more friendly. toward Clinch & Co, than do the proprietors of the Transerrpr. But they look upon this as a question in which the welfare and rights of the public are being opposed ‘y the course ef a combination of a limited number of individuals who have private ends to subserve at the ‘undue expense of many who are powatless to protect themselves should they desire toda so. The duty of a journal. under such circumstances is plain. The Transcript thinks it knows what a proper regard for public interest demands, and is not afraid to io its duty, as the bank-grocery-minebutcher monopoly will find out before it drops the subject. : The Transcript thanks the Union Expenses election board, $9. Next Wednesday was declared’ a’ holiday in order that the pupils may attend the Sunday school picnic. . The returns of the election were received and Messrs.

Pridgeon. For some time past the San Juan Times has been hinting at possessing . a knowledge of irregularities in con-} nection with the transactions of the County Supervisors. Yesterday’s issue of that paper boldly charges Supervisor Pridgeon of the third district with drawing from the county treasury moneys for which no consideration has been rendered. It says: He has only one honorable course open fo him, and that is to resign his office and pay back into the county treasury the money which he has wrongfully received. When he shall have done that he may be pardoned. The Times article begins with a rehearsal of the history of the. partnership of Mr. Pridgeon and Frank Souchet'in the sawmill business at North Bloomfield. It sets forth in ‘detail that the firm of Souchet & Co, sold to Mr. Pridgeon, . , as Road Commissioner, for public use, Iumber to the amount of $366.67; that Mr. Pridgeon presented andwas paid by the county bills in favor of Souchet & Co. to the amount of $751.90, leaving $385.23 wrongfully obtained by Mr. Pridgeon. There are statements from County Clerk Beatty and Mr. Souchet in respect to ‘the amount of lumber furnished and the moneys allowed on that account. The Transcript reporter yesterday inquired at the County Clerk's office somewhat concerning this matter. He learned that, the warrants drawn in favor of Souchet & Co. in all or about all instances included the sums allowed for lumber purchased from various dealers, being incorporated into one amount to lessen the work of the Clerk’s office in drawing warrants when there was a rush of business. This thing is frequently done, in various instances, and by order of the Supervisors, as the reporter understands. It seems hardly probable that the cost of all the lumber used in the third supervisoral district on public works between November, 1883, and January, 1886. could have been but $366.67 and that Souchet had a monopoly of the. trade. Mr. Pridgeon will doubtless be able to demonstrate to the public's satisfaction that his dealings with the county have been honorable. Should he not do so, those who have known him long and well will be sadly disappointed. " ‘The Transcript will be glad to publish any statement of the matter that he may wish to make in reply to the accusation made by the Times. TEACHERS’ SALARIES. A Comparison Between Eastern and Cal” ifornia’ Schools, A reporter of the Oakland Tribune has interviewed Fred M. Campbell, who recently returned front.a visit to the'East, in regard tothe salaries of eachers in'‘the States’ ay compared with those in California. “In the higher classes of Eastern schools,” said Mr. Campbell, “the teachers are paid a higher salary than they are here. The principals of New York schools, where they have charge of over 500 pupils,receive $3000 a year, and are allowed an assistant whose duties are such as the principal prescribes from day to day. Sometimes, in the absence of a teacher,this assistant takes a class, but as a rule she has a desk in the principal’s office, and represents him while he is organizing and directing the school. In tha lower grades the salaries average lower than ours. A new teacher may not receive more than $300 per year, while the highest average is about $600. In our schools the average is $700, and no teacher receives less than $600. The greatest difference is observable in the salaries paid normal school principal. The principal of the New York Normal school receives a salary of $7000 a year, and the principal of the Philadelpia school is paid $5000. Our normal school, at San Jose, which is the third largest in the United States, is conducted by a principal who only receives $3600 a year: _My-~-observation—-is—-that—our. teachers do much better work on the whole than Eastern teachers, and more than earn the difference in the lower grades between their salaries and those paid in the Eastern cities.’ Getting Do wn to Business.

Thousands of acres, which otherwise.wonld have been used only for grazing purposes, will now be covered with fruit orchards and cloverfields. Situated as this locality is at an altitude of ahout 800 feet, and in the most productive belt in the State, with plenty of water for irrigation, a climate that cannot be surpassed and soil equal to the high-priced lands of Southern California, and with the: enterprise” of the Excelsior Company in running its ditches over such a vast tract of land, immigration will turn this way.

There are several large tracts of land owned by different parties, who will offer _ reasonable’ inducements to colonists or individuals desiring to locate. Good land can be bought from $10 to $25 per acre, which is a very low figuré, considering the natural advantages possessed to make this a wealthy and prosperous section. If the same energy were displayed ten years azo by the people here in improving their land, planting orchards and vineyards as they show now, we would have a boom here equal to that of Los Angeles county, but the people are awaking to that fact and are going to work with a will, knowing full well that the day is not far distant when they will be fully repaid, PERSONAL MENTION.

It goes under names but’ it. is essenthe same complaint. tions for nérvous patients are crowded. The average of life in the United States is decreasing every year. Sudden deaths from nervous collapse among our business, professional and public men ‘are so frequent as scarcely to excite remark, ‘The majority of suicides, committed without ap-. parent reason, or under so-called i, pages of spirits,” are really prompted by nervous prostration, which is a fruitful source of insanity and cv¥ime with all their grief and horror. These facts are startling. They threaten the very life of the nation. They assail the springs of its power and prosperity. They wreck manhood’s strength and woman's usefulness and beauty. Every. one should know the causes. Whatare they? The answer is easy and_ terribly lain: Our vicious personal abits; our careless and lawless eating and drinking; the intense mental and physical strain arising from our mad race after money, position and influence; the fears and struggles of poverty; the use of narcotics and stimulants; our fashion of turning day into nigh and night into day; and, briefly, our desperate willingness to pay any price for an hour's: leasure or success. So we urn life’s candle at. both ends and fill the lunatic asylums and the graveyards.

What It Has Cost Yuba County to Fight the Miners. looking over the minutes of the business done by the Yuba County Supervisors within the past few years. On September 5, 1831, a _petition from citizens was filed asking that a suit be brought by Yuba county against the hydraulic miners in the county to compel them to desist from dumping debris inté the rivers and streams. The matter was referred to the District Attorney for his opi::ion as to the authority of the Board in the case. On October 4, ‘Tss1, he gave to the Board his opinion that the Board of Supervisors had power and authority to bring the suit. On the following day the Board authorized District Attorney Howser to commence legal proceedings against all persons emptying debris into the Yuba river or its tributaries, said proceedings to be begun and prosecuted in behalf of the county of Yuba, provided that the Anti-Debris Association provide counsel to assist the District Attorney without expense to the county for such assistant counsel. The Boardon May 3d and 4th, 1882, as Committee of the Whole, attended an anti-debris convention at Sacramento. Of course the salary and expenses of the Supervisors, -amounting to about $100, was paid by the county. In 1882 expenditures for debris cases were made as follows: EXPENDITURES IN 1882.

A large amount of money has been expended through private channels and subscribed by private parties which has not come before the eyes of the public, The Democrat goes on to say: ‘‘After all this expense and trouble it seems that the Yuba river, which rans by our doors, ig not in much better condition than IN ITS OWN LIGHT. The Grass Valley Union and Its Relations to the Public. eee The Nevada Transcript seems to be much concerned as to the manner in which Clinch & Co., merchants of this place, conduct their business, and expresses surprise that the Union is not burying itself in like manner. The Union is wilting that the live paper at the county seat shall enjoy a monopoly of this kind of journalistic enterprise. —Grass Valley Union. , 4 That the Union should take such a position,is most amazing. If one Nevada county paper more than another should grasp the Grass Valley monopoly bull by the horns, it is the Union. It has. not been very long since a newspaper man of Grass Valley said he wished the merchants there were as liberal in advertising as are those of Nevada City. ‘How du you account for the fact that they are not?” asked a bystander. : “The very class of customers to be reached under ordinary circumstances by advertising,’’. was the reply, ‘‘are to agreat extent compelled to trade at the business places owned by men,they work for, and they dare not. buy elsewhere no. matter what inducements are offered them todo so. Their employers’ store is sure of their trade anyway, and hence it does not need to. advertise.’’ Yes, the Grass Valley Union is not among those who suffer least by the existence of the grasping combination. Let the reader take a copy. of that paper and one of the Transoripr. Compare the two carefully. Note the difference in the number and class of advertisements of the two. Such proof speaks louder than words. Let the principle be once established that every miner employed in Grass Vally district can trade where and with whom he pleases, and the merchants there would compete energetically for the business. They would need space in the advertising columns of the Union to explain the advantages over competitors that they have to offer. The Union stands in its own light when it takes sides with any combination that is detrimental to the interests of miners and merchants of its town. The fact'that a warm personal friendship exists between the editor of the Union and members of the firm of Clinch & Co., if such relations are sustained between the parties, should cut no figure in the matter, so far as the Union’s course is concerned, Perhaps no men in the ccunty feel kindlier or more friendly. toward Clinch & Co, than do the proprietors of the Transerrpr. But they look upon this as a question in which the welfare and rights of the public are being opposed ‘y the course ef a combination of a limited number of individuals who have private ends to subserve at the ‘undue expense of many who are powatless to protect themselves should they desire toda so. The duty of a journal. under such circumstances is plain. The Transcript thinks it knows what a proper regard for public interest demands, and is not afraid to io its duty, as the bank-grocery-minebutcher monopoly will find out before it drops the subject. : The Transcript thanks the Union Expenses election board, $9.

Pridgeon. For some time past the San Juan Times has been hinting at possessing . a knowledge of irregularities in con-} nection with the transactions of the County Supervisors. Yesterday’s issue of that paper boldly charges Supervisor Pridgeon of the third district with drawing from the county treasury moneys for which no consideration has been rendered. It says: He has only one honorable course open fo him, and that is to resign his office and pay back into the county treasury the money which he has wrongfully received. When he shall have done that he may be pardoned. The Times article begins with a rehearsal of the history of the. partnership of Mr. Pridgeon and Frank Souchet'in the sawmill business at North Bloomfield. It sets forth in ‘detail that the firm of Souchet & Co, sold to Mr. Pridgeon, . , as Road Commissioner, for public use, Iumber to the amount of $366.67; that Mr. Pridgeon presented andwas paid by the county bills in favor of Souchet & Co. to the amount of $751.90, leaving $385.23 wrongfully obtained by Mr. Pridgeon. There are statements from County Clerk Beatty and Mr. Souchet in respect to ‘the amount of lumber furnished and the moneys allowed on that account. The Transcript reporter yesterday inquired at the County Clerk's office somewhat concerning this matter. He learned that, the warrants drawn in favor of Souchet & Co. in all or about all instances included the sums allowed for lumber purchased from various dealers, being incorporated into one amount to lessen the work of the Clerk’s office in drawing warrants when there was a rush of business. This thing is frequently done, in various instances, and by order of the Supervisors, as the reporter understands.

It seems hardly probable that the cost of all the lumber used in the third supervisoral district on public works between November, 1883, and January, 1886. could have been but $366.67 and that Souchet had a monopoly of the. trade. Mr. Pridgeon will doubtless be able to demonstrate to the public's satisfaction that his dealings with the county have been honorable. Should he not do so, those who have known him long and well will be sadly disappointed. " ‘The Transcript will be glad to publish any statement of the matter that he may wish to make in reply to the accusation made by the Times. TEACHERS’ SALARIES. A Comparison Between Eastern and Cal” ifornia’ Schools, A reporter of the Oakland Tribune has interviewed Fred M. Campbell, who recently returned front.a visit to the'East, in regard tothe salaries of eachers in'‘the States’ ay compared with those in California. “In the higher classes of Eastern schools,” said Mr. Campbell, “the teachers are paid a higher salary than they are here. The principals of New York schools, where they have charge of over 500 pupils,receive $3000 a year, and are allowed an assistant whose duties are such as the principal prescribes from day to day. Sometimes, in the absence of a teacher,this assistant takes a class, but as a rule she has a desk in the principal’s office, and represents him while he is organizing and directing the school. In tha lower grades the salaries average lower than ours. A new teacher may not receive more than $300 per year, while the highest average is about $600. In our schools the average is $700, and no teacher receives less than $600. The greatest difference is observable in the salaries paid normal school principal. The principal of the New York Normal school receives a salary of $7000 a year, and the principal of the Philadelpia school is paid $5000. Our normal school, at San Jose, which is the third largest in the United States, is conducted by a principal who only receives $3600 a year: _My-~-observation—-is—-that—our. teachers do much better work on the whole than Eastern teachers, and more than earn the difference in the lower grades between their salaries and those paid in the Eastern cities.’ Getting Do wn to Business.

Thousands of acres, which otherwise.wonld have been used only for grazing purposes, will now be covered with fruit orchards and cloverfields.

It goes under names but’ it. is essenthe same complaint. tions for nérvous patients are crowded. The average of life in the United States is decreasing every year. Sudden deaths from nervous collapse among our business, professional and public men ‘are so frequent as scarcely to excite remark, ‘The majority of suicides, committed without ap-. parent reason, or under so-called i, pages of spirits,” are really prompted by nervous prostration, which is a fruitful source of insanity and cv¥ime with all their grief and horror. These facts are startling. They threaten the very life of the nation. They assail the springs of its power and prosperity. They wreck manhood’s strength and woman's usefulness and beauty. Every. one should know the causes. Whatare they? The answer is easy and_ terribly lain: Our vicious personal abits; our careless and lawless eating and drinking; the intense mental and physical strain arising from our mad race after money, position and influence; the fears and struggles of poverty; the use of narcotics and stimulants; our fashion of turning day into nigh and night into day; and, briefly, our desperate willingness to pay any price for an hour's: leasure or success.
