~ tous leat the world think that the © OTO8. The Daily Transcript, : " WEWADA'CITY, CALIFORMA ‘Friday, Mov. 11, 1881. ~ ra ‘Piain Engtish. . The grangers engaged in lawing “the miners continue to appear solici“hydraulic branch of the imdustry is Hot the only object of hostility. Every time the note of warning’ is rounded in the camps ef the geld-. _ diggers, the press and people of the valleys interpose aa aspurance ‘that ~ the quartz and deift miners are in no danger,_Some of the less observant of the latter pat faith in these’ protestations, but the more far-seeiag and cautious know only too well hw hollow and false they are. We have been reading the history of the Bear River debris litigation. It gives the lie point blank to the grangers, whoseacta rather than words the micers.are now’ battlins against. Turamz to Keyser’s findings of fact, we find that paragraph 17, section 5, reads: The mining claims of the defendants, Knight Brothers, were located . prior to the year 1859; they are worked by. what is called the drifting process, which does not. disturb what is called the upper strata, but drifts out aud washes what is called the pay streak or ‘lower strata; the tailings from these claims are deposited in the bed of a creek which leads into one of the main tributaries of Bear River, © Paragraph 18 of the same section reads: : The mining claims of the defendants, Wyck Brothers, were located in the year 1356. The defendants, Wyck Brothers, have been the owners of these claims since the year 1858. These ‘claims are . partly worked by the hydraulic process, aud partly by the drifting process; the tailings from these claims are deposited in one of the tributaries of Bear River, The next paragraph says: The mining claims of the defendants, Nutting, Cooper, Frick & Frick, were located prior to the ear 1867. The defendants have . the Owners of these claims since the year 1867; in the year 1875, they applied to the United States for a patent and paid therefor, and have a certificate of purchase thereThese claims are~ likewise worked by what is called the drifting process; their: tailings’ are deposited in a ravine which leads into one of the tributaries of Bear River. Next follows the conelusions of law as expounded by his howor. Read carefully. the second clause under that heading: ~ The defendants er either of them have not acquired anyright to use the bed of Bear River, nor the bede of its branches or-tributaties as a, place of deposit of ‘their mining . tailings, nor to choke and fill with such tailings. the channe's of Bear River inthe valley thereof, nor to flow or overflow plaintiffs lands with such tailings, hor to coRRUP?, FOUL AND T) MAKB UNFit FOR DOmestic, animal or irrigating uses, . the water of Bear River. The decree that was issued.in this Bear River case affords additional strong proof that the grangers -say' one thing out of court! and another init, Note the following extracts from the decree: * * * also H. Kuight and William Knight, co-partners, under the name of Knight Brothers; Conrad Wyck and Philip Wyck; A. N. Nutting, Alonzo Cooper, J. B. Frick aud-G: A.

The Great Struggle. — Never before in the history of the State has so great # struggle been eatried on within her confines as the onenow waging between the miners and thé farmers. The industry that} populated the Coast with the brainiest and most progressive element abounding in the Kast, is being as+ sailed by a portion of our citizens. some of whom are honest but igno-rant, others-intelligent bat unreason‘able, and still ethers as big thieves afid blackmailersas the sun ever shone upon. If the attack upon hydraulio mining proves successful we alljknow fult welt that the foundation of the whole gold-producing: industry will have been sapped. To remedy the damage done to the valleys by reason of mining, the miners have ayreed to take the most liberal measures, The grangers have but one answar to make to all overtures, and that is the fatal one of ‘tne compromise.” If wise and hénest coun-' sel should prevail, the whole matter would shortly be settled outside of the courts, as itis bound te be eventually. A tail cannof control so great a thing as a dog, and the courts of Calffornia do not possess the greatness to successfully cope with the debris problem. When the demand is made to destroy on@hundred millions of dollars’ worth of property that yields an annual return — of twelve millions of dollars and furnishes sustenance fer fifty thousand of human beings, in order to satisfy a few lawyers and their misled cliente, the bounds of reason™ have been overstepped, and the demand must therefore go ungratified. The Crash Continues. The Marysville Savings Bank has failed, the cause alleged being depreciation of values in real, estate. 4 Marysville is still slashing away at the gash in her own throat, by foolishly seeking in the courts what cannot be obtained there. Unless she pauses and takes a new tack immediately her doom will be sealed in # few months more. It is an unpleasant thonght, but what is the sense of hiding the fact that if there is a heavy rainfall the coming winter she must be swept away? Deplore it as wa may, there is no use in trying to dodge the inevitable result. If this winter -is a mild one, her doom is only — postponed. Nature is against her and with only such dams and levees as she is able to build without the miners’ aid she has no ray of hope toclingto. The catastrophe may be averted perhaps uutil the lawyers have fivishedfsackingher, but that will make little difference after she has gone, Meantime the lawsuits’ she is pressing will render her legs able to withstand the attacks of the elements. Great Was the Fa’. We always said that Judge Stidger of the San Juan Times would come to some bad en . ; and now our worst fears are realized, He has fallen from the high estate of the editor of a religious weekly journal to become the atttorney of a hydrdulic miningcompany. The writ issued by Judge Mayhew to be served on the legal representative of the Eureka. Lake & Yuba Canal ‘Co., was served on him by the Sheriff who had been told that he was the right party, and he admitted his guilt without a blush. We blush for him therefore, and shall advise Rafe Shoemaker the Tidings evangelist to immediately go up and wrestle with him in—prayer before he is beyoud redemptio. —_— —_—_—______ Dam phoels.

The Grass Valley Union is converéaut with the record of Hancock and’ Sullivan, the two weorthies who brought the Mayhew anti-slickens erderg from Sacramento to Sheriff: Tompkins, Tliey are just about the kind of fellowa*ttiat one might expect to tind engaged in doing the ‘dirty work of Cadwalader, McClatchey and the other schemers. ‘It appears that last year one of these persons (and perhaps both#ioafed around in Placer county s long time as a spy en the Gold Run Mining Company. Sullivan put in @ claim against Sacramerto county for his services as a sneak,-but whether he realized ang thinger not the Union does not know. Hancock is a one-barreled “little joker” im a circumscribed political circle. He was one of the henorable bilk outfit that disgraced itself and the State during the new constitution fight, and, as the Union says,’“‘appears to have @ bee in his bonnet that is constantly prompting tise,” * Whom Shall We Believe ? Hamilton Smith, Jr., President of the Hydraulic . Miners’ Association, Judge A. B. Bibble, .the retained counsel of the mriners, and -Jameés O’Brieg, of Smartsvyle, Vare in Sacratffento at present and’ will remain here for several days. Their object is to hunt up the testimony of any parties hereabouts who may be favorable to the hydraulicers, but it is a general belief that they might as well look for a needle in a hayatack.—Bee. ‘-It isa matter for comment that nine out of ten Sacramentans wha visit this seotion assure us that when the Bee says the solid residents of that city favor the anti-slickens legislation it is guilty of misrepresentation, Which shall we believe ? In one instance we have the statement of a hot-headed and ‘“‘iaterested” paper, in the other instance scores of heavy tax—payers, or else their representatives, Ifthe Bee is telling the truth, the people of the} mining sections should know it immediately, as they would materially change their course in some respects, Cheaks and Suits. The house of Wurkheim & Co., is the lirgest and oldest cloak establish ment in San Francisco. The firm commenced business about twenty years ago, and by selling cloaks and suits at cheaper rates than they can be obtained at any other place on the Pacific coast have built up an immense business. . Their place is 125 Kearney street, where they can supply cloaks of the very latest styles from $5 te $500. Ladies’ suits of every kind of material always on hand and made to order. The firm employ about one hundred ladies in the manufacturing of cloaks and suits. Wurkheim & Co, iavite the attention of all dealers to the immense stock they now have on hand, made upin the latest styles for the Winter trade. Why He Wept. Yesterday afternood.a man stepped into a Main etreet barber shap to get shaved, While the barber was ing the steel .over his face the man began toshed tears, This attracting the attention of the proprietor of the shop, he directed the manipulator of the razor to sharpen the implement. As the shave continued the man’s tears flowed unceasingly, and the barber continued to whet his tool, occasionally changing razors, and striving as diligently as possible to ameliotate the suffering of hia eustomer. ‘Weare using the best razors in the shop, sir,” said the man with the lather cup. ‘Your face must be very tender, Does’ it pain you much?” , ‘tA razor pain me! De you suppose that a man who has been through the war shrinks from physical suffering?\ “Then what the deuce have you been blubberin’ about?” quered the “I got to thinking over bad news from the East. Another mother-in law comin’ out to spend the winter. Here’s the money for the shave.” ““T shan’t charge you a cent,” said the barber, sadly, ‘I never bleed a man’s pocket when his heart's bowed ‘down, Come in oceasionally and mingle your tears with mine.
