Lake district and prospecting there in the hops of striking a bodred thousand of dollars, visited and said that he wanted the assistance of the authorities in recovering a horse stolen from him the preceding night. His statement of the affairis in substance as follows: Thursday morning he left Cisco-for this city on a saddle horse belonging to. Alex. Willett of that place. The animal having a sore shoulder, he made.slow progress, not reaching the “Central House eight miles above here Mill He stayed there awhile, then started to complete the. journey. Finding the main-road in rather rough condition, he took a branch road that starts off about a mile this side of the Gentral House,and for much of the distance leads through a dense forest of firs. Darkness came on before he had come more than a mile or two on the branch’ road, and the trees were so. thick as to exclude the starlight. He tried to find his way along, but became confused and concluded that the best thing altogether. So he stopped and sick laid down to take a rest. He suffered so much from cold that tbout ten o’clock be started to. light a fire, and just as he did so two masked men. came out from the gloom of the forest and order: ed him to throw up his hands. One of them was over six feet tall, and is described by Holbrouk as a “regular Pike county Missourian’ in shape. The other was short, weighing perhaps 130 pounds. [hey lovked at the horse to seé that it was fastened securely, tied che halter to suit themselves, then sat down in silence. The old prospector. addressed them sevaral times, but they did not reply to him. In a little while they were joined by either twoor three nore masked persons (he is not sntly tem years old and even more thoroughly disguised than his 1e was a poor man, and they did not search him.

He is said.,to be a temperad. evidently been ; . ‘THE DEBRIS QUESTION. — sions—Great Interests Involved. “We have received advance Mint Director. Burchard for the The most notable event in the The result of this long contested The farmers and miners were Keyes,-a farmer on Bear river, about thirty large mining companies, and a hundred or more individual miners who dumped their they were washed during high water upon his‘ lands.Keyes, having lost his suit inthe Supreme Court on a technical point, other suits were brought on alike cause of action by persons residing on the Feather, Yuba, Bear and American rivers; and finally by the State of California, through the Attorney-General, against the Gold Run Mining Company of Placer county, to test the question as to the right of the company to flow its debris or tailings into Janyon creek, a mountain stream distant about 90 miles from the nearest navigable river. The case, after a long and ably conducted trial in the Superior Court, was decided against the mining com-' pany, and on appeal the decision of that Court was affirmed by the Supreme Court of California in November, 1884.' Itis unnecessary to detail the numerous actions litigated since 1876—all having the same object —the perpetual injunction of the miners; suffice to say that—in point of fact—it was the intention to enjoin every hydraulic mine in the State and that this object: has veen at least partially accomplishad as witnessed by the marked falling off of our gold product during che year 1884, and the threatened furthér reduction for the next year, as the injunction decrees of che Federal Court did not take full effect until June, 1884. Allthe great companies have ceased work in obedience tothe lecrees of thé Courts, and the smaller ones are gradually retiring from business in anticipation of crouble. This condition of affairs must prevail until National or state legislation or a modification of the decrees of our Couits by the Supreme Court of the United States shall find a remedy, and determine under what restrictions, if any, mining may be lawfully pursued, and the gold product of California maintained to its standard of the past decade. ‘The area immediately affected by the suppression of hydraulic mining extends from the Feather river onthe north to the Cosumnes river on the south, a length of 144 miles of auriferous _ territory lying on the western slope of the Sierra Nevadas, immediately between the foothills and the ‘‘high Sierra.”” The average width of this gold-bearing territory is about forty-eight miles, giving-an area of nearly 7,000 square miles, all of which may be Classed as ‘‘mineral lands,’’ though a very small portion could be worked by the hydraulic process. Within these limits it is estimated that more than 20,090 men have been thrown out of employment, and a great depreciation of property and decrease of population has necessarily followed. The most populous and gold producing region lies witiiin the limits of Nevada county on the water-shed-of the Yuba _ river. Here, owing to. the systematic iness of hydraulic mining by the large companies, accurate. details preceding the closing of the mines.

Louis Blanding says the generally accepted, statement that the largest nugget ever found in California was worth a little more than $21,000, is an erroneous one. He says that J. J. Dinney, ‘Old Vir ginia,”’ found a piece of gold about six miles from Downieville, Sierra county, on the 21st day of August, 1857, that weighed 5,000 ounces. The gold of that vicinity was worth $18 an ounce, which would make the value of the nugget some $90,000. This would make the Dinney nugget the largest piece of pure gold ever discovered, so far as accounts go. Heretofore the Australian nugget, fouud in the ‘Ballarat gold fields, has been considered ‘the largest. It was valued at $60,000. Dinney, or ‘‘Old Virginia,” as he was familiarly called in those days, afterwards went to Washoe when the great silver discoveries were first made there, and from him the town of Virginia City took its name. The man who discovered the largest nugget in the California mines and gave hisname to the richest mining camp in the world, died in extreme poverty. — -——» «oe —-— De Not Let It be Fergotten. The Auburn Republican says: We do not understand how it is that new-comers to California will pass right by the foothill land which they can buy for from $20 to $100 an ‘acre, and go to the southern counties where they are obliged to pay from $390 to $1,000 an acre for land that will not produce anything better—even allowing that it is as good, which is Beginning to beaquestion. In Newcastle the other day Mr. Morrison told of a lady at the Fair who looked at a bunch of Flaming Tokay grapes sent from Pino, and said she thought it possible that as-good grapes might be raised on her land at Riverside for which she paid $700 an acre. At Pino $100 an acre would be a big price for improved land. , There is only one solution to the conundrum, and that is that we are not sufficiently known. This part of the State is thought by people inthe East to be a kind of Labrador in winter and Sahara in summer. The facts therefore must be repeated and repeated until we get a hearing and some attention.

Some of the papers: are lauding President-.Cleveland, because he spoke kindly to a poor girl who called to see him, and asked for employment. If hehad spoken unkindly or treated her “uncivilly, ‘the matter would have been. worthy of comment. What. gentleman would have done differently from Mr, Cleveland? Does the office of President of the United States make. man ungentlemanly? {ff not, why express surprise at the conduct of a gentleman in that office? Tue new registry law fon the large cities of Ohio has gone into operation. In Cincinnatti the voters registered -number 60,000, about 5,000 less than the votes cast at the last Presidential election. This indicates that the people are still taking a lively interest in politics, though ‘it is an ‘‘off year” forthe 5,000 votes short in Cincinnatti probably represent the repeaters of a year ago. “T pon’T see why pennies were invented,” said a New York banker, who had received a few in change. ‘Oh, that’s easily accounted for,’’ remarked a friend were invented in order to enable New York millionaires to contribute toward the erection of public monuments.”’ thatSam Jones, while working at had one of his arms so badly shatered by a falling rock that amputation might be necessary.

Lake district and prospecting there in the hops of striking a bodred thousand of dollars, visited and said that he wanted the assistance of the authorities in recovering a horse stolen from him the preceding night. His statement of the affairis in substance as follows: Thursday morning he left Cisco-for this city on a saddle horse belonging to. Alex. Willett of that place. The animal having a sore shoulder, he made.slow progress, not reaching the “Central House eight miles above here Mill He stayed there awhile, then started to complete the. journey. Finding the main-road in rather rough condition, he took a branch road that starts off about a mile this side of the Gentral House,and for much of the distance leads through a dense forest of firs. Darkness came on before he had come more than a mile or two on the branch’ road, and the trees were so. thick as to exclude the starlight. He tried to find his way along, but became confused and concluded that the best thing altogether. So he stopped and sick laid down to take a rest. He suffered so much from cold that tbout ten o’clock be started to. light a fire, and just as he did so two masked men. came out from the gloom of the forest and order: ed him to throw up his hands. One of them was over six feet tall, and is described by Holbrouk as a “regular Pike county Missourian’ in shape. The other was short, weighing perhaps 130 pounds. [hey lovked at the horse to seé that it was fastened securely, tied che halter to suit themselves, then sat down in silence. The old prospector. addressed them sevaral times, but they did not reply to him. In a little while they were joined by either twoor three nore masked persons (he is not sntly tem years old and even more thoroughly disguised than his 1e was a poor man, and they did not search him.

He is said.,to be a temperad. evidently been ; . ‘THE DEBRIS QUESTION. — sions—Great Interests Involved. “We have received advance Mint Director. Burchard for the The most notable event in the The result of this long contested The farmers and miners were Keyes,-a farmer on Bear river, about thirty large mining companies, and a hundred or more individual miners who dumped their they were washed during high water upon his‘ lands.Keyes, having lost his suit inthe Supreme Court on a technical point, other suits were brought on alike cause of action by persons residing on the Feather, Yuba, Bear and American rivers; and finally by the State of California, through the Attorney-General, against the Gold Run Mining Company of Placer county, to test the question as to the right of the company to flow its debris or tailings into Janyon creek, a mountain stream distant about 90 miles from the nearest navigable river. The case, after a long and ably conducted trial in the Superior Court, was decided against the mining com-' pany, and on appeal the decision of that Court was affirmed by the Supreme Court of California in November, 1884.' Itis unnecessary to detail the numerous actions litigated since 1876—all having the same object —the perpetual injunction of the miners; suffice to say that—in point of fact—it was the intention to enjoin every hydraulic mine in the State and that this object: has veen at least partially accomplishad as witnessed by the marked falling off of our gold product during che year 1884, and the threatened furthér reduction for the next year, as the injunction decrees of che Federal Court did not take full effect until June, 1884. Allthe great companies have ceased work in obedience tothe lecrees of thé Courts, and the smaller ones are gradually retiring from business in anticipation of crouble. This condition of affairs must prevail until National or state legislation or a modification of the decrees of our Couits by the Supreme Court of the United States shall find a remedy, and determine under what restrictions, if any, mining may be lawfully pursued, and the gold product of California maintained to its standard of the past decade. ‘The area immediately affected by the suppression of hydraulic mining extends from the Feather river onthe north to the Cosumnes river on the south, a length of 144 miles of auriferous _ territory lying on the western slope of the Sierra Nevadas, immediately between the foothills and the ‘‘high Sierra.”” The average width of this gold-bearing territory is about forty-eight miles, giving-an area of nearly 7,000 square miles, all of which may be Classed as ‘‘mineral lands,’’ though a very small portion could be worked by the hydraulic process. Within these limits it is estimated that more than 20,090 men have been thrown out of employment, and a great depreciation of property and decrease of population has necessarily followed. The most populous and gold producing region lies witiiin the limits of Nevada county on the water-shed-of the Yuba _ river.

Louis Blanding says the generally accepted, statement that the largest nugget ever found in California was worth a little more than $21,000, is an erroneous one. He says that J. J. Dinney, ‘Old Vir ginia,”’ found a piece of gold about six miles from Downieville, Sierra county, on the 21st day of August, 1857, that weighed 5,000 ounces. The gold of that vicinity was worth $18 an ounce, which would make the value of the nugget some $90,000. This would make the Dinney nugget the largest piece of pure gold ever discovered, so far as accounts go. Heretofore the Australian nugget, fouud in the ‘Ballarat gold fields, has been considered ‘the largest. It was valued at $60,000. Dinney, or ‘‘Old Virginia,” as he was familiarly called in those days, afterwards went to Washoe when the great silver discoveries were first made there, and from him the town of Virginia City took its name. The man who discovered the largest nugget in the California mines and gave hisname to the richest mining camp in the world, died in extreme poverty. — -——» «oe —-— De Not Let It be Fergotten. The Auburn Republican says: We do not understand how it is that new-comers to California will pass right by the foothill land which they can buy for from $20 to $100 an ‘acre, and go to the southern counties where they are obliged to pay from $390 to $1,000 an acre for land that will not produce anything better—even allowing that it is as good, which is Beginning to beaquestion. In Newcastle the other day Mr. Morrison told of a lady at the Fair who looked at a bunch of Flaming Tokay grapes sent from Pino, and said she thought it possible that as-good grapes might be raised on her land at Riverside for which she paid $700 an acre. At Pino $100 an acre would be a big price for improved land. , There is only one solution to the conundrum, and that is that we are not sufficiently known. This part of the State is thought by people inthe East to be a kind of Labrador in winter and Sahara in summer. The facts therefore must be repeated and repeated until we get a hearing and some attention.
