& The Daily Transeript, . WEVADA ph CALIFORNIA. Sunday, Nov. 13, 1881. . ee mmmnmrenneraninel onnnanemmainaml = We beg to suggest to those who think that it would bea hardship to ' stop hydraulic mining because it gives employment tq many and adds to the gold of the world, that. if it were stopped drift mining would “ing is continued for the benefit of ‘take its place aud give employment ito ten men where guly one is employedinow in the hydraulic mines, And the drifters would be better paid than the Chinamen would then be employed, as they will not work underground, and just ag much gold would be taken Sout, because the pay dirt is in the two or three feet of soil at the bottom. * * * Hydraulic minthese law-defying corporations and for them only. It does not. benefit anybody but these corporations: ’ Hydrausic mining is an, absolute ines jury to the workers and. traders of tiié mountains and to the people of the whole State.—Sacramento Bee, The Bee knows there is not & paying drift mine in Nevada county, al. though thousands and. hundreds of thousands of dollars have been aud are being expended in the hope of developing some, It knows that not env.of the enjoined hydraulic mines employs Chinese labor, _ It. knows that as arule drift miners are not 80 well paid as. hydraulic miners, and there is less danger to the lives and limbs of the latter class, It kiows that there is gold-bearing dirt to ttié full height of the bank in many in8 ances, and that the coarse gold alone frequently extends upwards from ten to twenty feet. It knows that. in Nevada county alone are not less thap ten towns of respectable size entirely dependent fot existence on the continuance of hydraulic mining, and that Nevada City is in a great measure supported by that industry. It knows that there are ia Nevada county fifteen thousand people who.would give half of their earthly possessions if necessary to geoure the continuance of hydraulic _ willfully~ misrepresents the . Opuration was mining, and that half of that. number would willingly ‘bear arma in its defense if any, unlawful assault should be made against it, The Bee knows these things because it bas been told hundreds of -times that they are true and it has not yet tound a mining country man to deny them. Therefore we charge that. the Bee facts, when it saya what it does, © The Plain Truth. The efforts being made by the grangers to crash the miners with such tools as partisan courts created for that purpose, are absurd in the. extreme, aud can only end in the cc mplete demoraliza ion of the aggressors, The grangera are offered the greatest of inducements to compromise. If they continue to refuse aneeting the miners on a plane of reagon and peace, as they have in the pist, the responsibility of their ruin ‘will be em their own heads, As the R-cord-Union says: The miners’ p oceedings at present are perfectly legitimate, but nevertheless they are pouriug more debris into the rivers. ‘Fuese iueidents show how uncertain the law is, and how hopeless it is to expect that any swift ending ean be had to the litigation in " progress. ‘The lawyers will dlways find exguses for delay, and means of preventing the farmers frova stopping the working of the mines for any leugth of time, and the sooner this is realized the sooner willthe farmers begin tu perveive that their interests cau be best served by a compro-nise, Another Granger Arguucat, —_— It is said that the brush dam in Bear River near Wheatland was ast oy fire Weduesday night, and at latest advices it was gull buruing. lt is but a short tinge siuce a similar performme! on the Yuba ch Maryevill), The qrangera dre rely paving the way tor their own anathilation by their villianous course, They are desteoying, oue by ons, all the claims they —ever had to the sympathy ot the tainers.

Haneéock and Sullivan, the spies, to their masters. The shutting off of the water on the Ridge by the Sheriff did not cause a ripple onthe wave of popular indignation, Evérybody kept cool so far as words were cone-rned, but there was some pretty strong thinking Geo. D. McLean and company have discharged their workmen heretofore employed in ranning a tunnel into the Kate Hayes’ Flat mine, gay they intend to wait events before commencing anew. This arrangement is quite a detriment to the interests of the working men, as it throws a great many good ones out of employment, quartz ledge 2} feet thick that was discovered a year ago on placer claim at Backeye Hill. “The ore assays from $8 to $16 a ton. It has been tapped 30 feet below the surface, and now a tunnel is to be run to give 100 feet of backs. Peter Graham, Martin Barth and Edward Powers are the owners, ‘Mr. Hancock, one of the spies that accompanied the Sheriff, felt very confident that the order made by Mayhew was legal and would stand the test of examination in the Supreme Court. He was very bitter against hydraulic mining, and apparently opposed to a compromise, He had a poor opinion of stone dams, brash dams or any other kind of dams, except damning the miners, A load of powder was being taken from this city to the American mine near San Juan a few days ago, and in going down Purdon's~ grade the teamster attached a shoe.to one of the rear. wheels. He had gone a short distance when he heard a‘ pe< culiar sound at the hind wheel, Stopping to ascertain the cause, he sifting through upon the ground, where the steel shoe ignited it in passing along. This is the story af ithe teanister, who expresses much surprise that there was not a general explosion. Ce a a Teok it up Too Tenderly. The Daily Exchange thinks that in the report of the San Francisco Debris Committee it is not stated with the force and directness necessary how absolutely essential it is to the salvation of Marysville that her two-for-a-eent politicians, who are trying to make personal political capital out of the situation, must take a back seat and give away to meu who will grasp the facts and understand them. That paper says: The average valley farmer has an idea that the one thing essential to his salvation from debris is the shut‘ting down of the hydraulic mines, The committee should have told this class of men plainly and distinctly that the mischief is done as far as Marysville and surrounding country are concerned, and have. made the point so clear that no man could lose sight of it. Instead of merely recommending arbitration and leaying itan open question whether litigation would not answer as well, the committee should have pointed out that legal sharks have as great eapacity for swallowing money as debris ever had or could have for injuring land; that litigation would mean no dams, and therefore no protection from floods,’and that litisult in good to neither farmer nor miner, : New and Thea, Pi’. E. Drescher writes to the Sacramento Ree that it will be time for the graugers to talk about compromising when they find out through the Courts that they have not the power to shut down the byCadwalader ring and the guileless farmers who are putting.up the coin . to carry on that side of the* fight should remember that if the micers are forced to go tothe expense of proving their rights by litigation, they will uot when success has crowned their efforts ‘be in a ‘humor to expend sympathy on their foolSynopsized and Scissered from the A blast of 9,000 pounds of Vulean powder was fired a week ago in the did not learm anything during their trip with the Sheriff worth reporting Great things are expected of aj ‘return and sup with her?

When Mrs, Potts was here she claimed that a certain lady ordered certain remedies to the value of thirty dollars, but when they were sent around th: lady in question refused to pay for them. Mrs. Potts began the mixtures in charge of her attorney. She went away before the time for-trial, and counsel for prosecution moved to dismiss the case. The Justice asked where the accrued costs were coming from, and his curiosity was gratified by turning the medicins over to. him as’ security. It is kind of an elephant on his hands, It was not compounded to fit hie-gase, and he doesn’t like to peddle it out to his afflicted lady friends, “His only chance to get even is to buy.a diploma, have “Doctor” painted in ‘front of his name on the justice sign, and put an advertisement in the Datty TRaNscrirT that he is prepared to fill the shoes of Mrs, Dr. Potts, or at least toocdupy as much of them as he At the Churches To-day.
