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

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,

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

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.”

How to Liveon $10 @ Week.
* Food and Health :—A man with
$t0 a week and another to support
must live at home. If he lives out
he will get inferior food and become
discontented, and those depending
on him-will have to go short at home,

are profitable ; fish, dressed with
stuce and vegetable, to make meals,
is profitable ; so are fish pies; good,

attorney was in error as to t @

Nevada, where a similar law to
the Goodwin. Act has been in operation. “It does nut follow from this
that the California law will be set

nion,
The attorney in question was
shown his error, but not till after the
prisoner had been sentenced and remanded to the Sheriff's custody.
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, :
