Company, 32 ’ veuts; North Bloomfield mine, ess _ “quit hydeaulicing aad go to drift, but not one in fifty could Le so are NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA. i The Ditch System. As we showed ina brief manner * yesterday, the ditch systems in this * part of the State are dependent for maintenance upon the continuance The -various sow lines are owned by companies en> gsged in this industry, who after supplying water to drift and quartz miners, ranchers, manufacturers and “the like, use the balance in working . * of hydraulic mining. their owa mines, From ‘the sales made they realize bu;.a small portion of the sum required for keeping ’. in repair. the lines, but by diverting to their own use all for which there is no market are enab'ed to realize fair margins upon’ their investments. Very few le have even a remote idea as to the magnitude of thie wa_ ter supplying business;. The North Bloomfield Company. owns 157. miles of ditches, costing $708,841 ; the Milton Company, 80 miles, cost ing $391,579. The Eureka Lake 342 ; the South Yuba Company 123 mileg, costing $150,000, These are al Nevada county hydraulic mine owners, To keep their ‘ditches in repair it coata them from three to three and a half cents per inch each year, exclusive of interest and the capital invested. 4 , A Deceptive Head. “The Dam Project Abandoned” is the deceptive maaner in which the mischief-making Sacramento Bee heads am artecle urging the farmers not to compromise with the miners on the slickens question. It is ‘not true that the proposition to save Marysville by damming the Yuba river has beeu abandoned, as one will lparn from teadiag the article through. The Bee and Cadwalader simply want it to be so. These ly. ' ing headings sometimes do great harm to honest people. “The Failure of Palmer, Cook & Co.,” was what . the San Fraacisco Bulletin once put ia’ ing to show that a certain inetitution it did not like might become insolvent IF certain things not ae all likely to happen should come to pass, Depositors did not read beyond the heading, and for a time there was @ very uupleasant state of fairs in which the peopte a€ targe watfered more than the Bank which the Bulle. tin-waq trying to hurt. — 2 —— Drifting vs. Hydraulicing. It costs from one to two dollars a cubic yard te werk gravel by the dviftiag: process. Experieuce has showa that thd yield per cubic yard from. some of the hydraulic c.aims in Nevada county iu round figures is as follows; American mine at Sebasto— pel, 24 cents; Blue Teut mine, 15) than 10 cents; Milton mine, 33 to 47 ceuls; Manzanita mine at Sweetland, 27 to 33 cents, Thus the folly of tne Sacramento Bee's advice to ing” is shown, io The Principal Preduccr. Mint Director Burchard in his lately issued report upon the production of precious metals estimates that the annual output of gold in Qalifornia during the next ten’ years will be $15,000,000 in gold. He shows that of this amount the hydraulic mines will produce’ $10,000,000 per year if they are permitted to continue in operation. Making an Ass of Ltself. The Downieville Messenger says: The Bee is still harping about drift ing all the-hydraulic mines. If: the Bse knew more about mining it would probably make less of an ass of iteelf. There is now ‘and thew a mine worked by the hydraulic pro¢-s# thet could be.profitah'y drifted, worked, ANOTHER pa.ty of Russian Jews passed through Berlin on Thursday to’ América, being the third, party of the kind and comprising 280 persous; More will follow. .

The Johnson Verdict. torial: “One wéuld think that ished, except in the case of an Indian ora Chinaman, The latest. disgrace of this kind is the case of Frank man named Noyes. Johnson was convicted for murder in the second degreey and the jury besought for him the Court’s mercy. Notwithstanding the mildness-of this verdict the raffian had the temerity to threaten to ‘cut the heart’ out-of an at‘torney who assisted in the prosecu— htion, Hike lives to. get the chance, besides epenly proclaiming his pur~ pose of killing certain witnesses who testified against him. More than that, he tas admitted to other prisonersthat if the jury knew as much about the killing of Noyes as they ought to have known they would have hanged him )Johnson). He is, as may be inferred from all this, unrepentant and malignant in the extreme. The Court, however; was not quite so tender. . It condemned him to ferty years’ imprisonment, . But forty years under the operations of the beneficent (?) Goodwin act, amounts to just twenty-six years. Meantime there is a chance that wome soft~-headed Govenor will -parden him out before he is there three years.” ss Not Posted, tn ee When Frank Johnson was about te receive his sentence, on Tuesday, ene of his attorneys pleaded, amo: g ‘other things, as a reason why the term of sentence should be shortened that he understood the Goodwin Act had been pronounced ‘uncunstitaThe Placer county Argus of yesterday conta‘ns the following ri ‘when the Juited Irislimen accepted it for the fdllowing reason: The ancient flag-of Ireland was @ golden. case.

As to the Goodwin Act, there is no question that the majority of the people in the State observe the necessity for its modification, and we understand the next Legislature will be persuaded, if possible, to take steps in accordance with this idea, : Pern.
