JUDICIAL ELECTION, __
oto l elnesday, October 13th.
For Supreme Judge,
3. W. SANDERSON.
Serene cee
A Minen’s Conventios.—The Government has ever shown a disposition to do all
in ifs. power to aid in the development of
the mines of the Pacifie’coast, but it is impossible for Congress. to legislate intelligently upon the question without being better)
informed as to the wants and wishes ofminers. The Atlantic States have their representatives who are competent to legislate .
“for the advancement of the interest of commerce, agriculture. and other branches of
industry. Pennsylvania is represented by
men who understand the wants of her coal
and iron miners, but they cannot be expected to interest themselves in our local wants.
Nor are these interests of the. Atlantic
States depetideut alone upon their Representatives’ in Congress. Many of those
States are interested in common.and there
is @ unity’of action which the Pacific States
England States are all interested in manufactures, and when a measure for their benefit is introduced it commands strength from
the start. Besides this, the various branches of industry are represented by Societies
and Conventions, and from the published
reports of these, Congress is better able to
understand their wants and legislate intelli.
gently forthem. The State must rely sole:
ly upon its own Representatives. During
the last Congress, the only legislation upon
mineral interests proposed in the Senate
was by Mr. Couness. He offered two bills
__ providing for the sule of mineral lands —
“Happily for the welfare ot the State, they
both ‘sleep the sleep that knows no waking.” Inthe House of Representatives, a
bill, having for its object the establishment
of a Mineral Bureau, similar to the Bureau
of Agriculture, was considered. ‘This was
a step i the right direction, and we hope
. that it will be done at the next session of
Congress.
The miners of this State are deeply interested in the legislation of the next Congress
The Atlantic States, in the absence of proper-representations, caunot understand whiy
agricultural Jands should be sold and the.
. mines exempt. We have no doubt that the
next Congress will discuss these matters,
and unless miners look well to their inter-.
ests, “unfriendly legislation” may place
almost insuperable obstacles in the way of
the development of the mines. A: miner's
Convention, before the meeting of Congress,
by a discussion of the questiqns likely to
arise, and an indication of the best policy
for the Government to pursue, may do mugh
to aid in the development of State resources,
The Virginia Enterprise, speaking’ of the
plan for such a Convention of minets, says:
We have not given the subject sufficient
thought to feel warranted ip ‘suggesting in
detail a plan for securing w proper concert
of action for the purp: mentioned; but
in the absence of a bétter suggestion, we
would propose the calling of were: Conventions in all the mining States and Territories
and the selection of delegates toa general Convention, to be held
annually atsuch central point ag might be
agreed ( The expenses ot these delegates might be defrayed by their respective
or Territories, and further appropriu might be made te enable the Corresoading Secretaries of the various State
and Territorial organizations (which we
would suggest should be permanent) to
keep each other apprised of every experiment or discovery of importance transpiring
within their knowledge.
We think it would be difficult to get a
representation from so large a District at
_onee, but this need not prevent the assembling of such a Cunvention. California and
Nevada are so closely united, that these two
States might inaugurate the movement,
and invite all other mining communities to
join with, them. Let these States move in
the matter and others, having like interests,
‘Will soon join with them. We care not what
plan may be adopted, but heartily endorse
the following temarks of the En erprise:
Any plan would subserve the purpose to
" 8ome extent, whith would tend to create
something like a concert ef thought and action ationg the gold and silver miners of the
several States and Territories. Through
thie means the Government would be adviged, by an authority which could not be
disregarded, uf the necessities of the great
mining interests of the nation, and induced
in se ee De the mines, to conform iu policy somewhat to the wishes of those best
calbalated to-batiélpste its effects. —
. New Tevecrarn Lixes.—The Sult Lake
". Uniow Vedette of September 11h, says that
= SS Hate exehanges from the west are filled with .
-FRID AY-SEPTR 22, 1865, _items about the new lines of telegraph that
are to be built immediately overland. The
routes of the new lines are to be as followa:
One will begin at “Chieago and thence to
Omaha, Yort Kearny, Denver and “by the
new Holladay road—‘‘Unita Valley wagon
road”’ to this city, and hence through Silverland to San Francisco. The other line will
begin at Atchison, (to which point the United
States Telegraph Company have already
nearly completed a line tc St. Louis,) and
run from thenee to Fort Kearny, at which
point it will foin the first inentioned line and
continug' tram ‘thence a double wire to San
Francisco. The former is to be finished, by
the terms of the gontraet, in October, 1866,
and the laiter by next July. The third new
“Tightoing line” is to run from San Francisco, via Los Angeles, Prescott, Arizona, Al.
buquerque, New Mexico, and Memphis,
Tenn., to New Orleans. Verily, in the,
_words of Richelieu, ere long “civilization on
luminoys wings will fly, Phosnix-like, to the.
iminortal Jove.”
Can’® STAND THE PREss.—J. Miner's
mammoth wagon, says the Marysville Appeal, recently “made atrip to the State of
Nevada, with an immense load, going over
the Henness Pass. It appears that the proprietor of tne Virginia Turnpike has sume
misgivings of the weight of the wagon crushing through and knocking the bottom out of
his. road. He don’t believe in having so
much “weight for-the wagon.” Mr. Miner,
the owner of the big wagon, has received the
following “vwurhtry,”’ dated “Bridgeport,
September 16, 1865:-4Mr. J. Miner—Sir:
I am ordered by the proprietors of the Vir.
ginia Turopike Road to notify you that you
are forbidden to attempt to cross-any of the
bridges on the said Virginia Turnpike Road
with a load exéeeding twenty thousand (20,
000) pounds on one wagon,” If you disregard this notice you do so at your own risk:
Cocusa OIL SpRinGs.— The Sun says that
there are now seven companies actually at
work and several others, preparing to go to
work boring for-oil in that county. All
have flattering prospects. Even those who
commenced where there were no surface indications within a mile of them have now
some oil, It isall over that district and must
be in quantities somewhere. A1l the companiés now at work will be apt to go down
from five hundred to a thousand feet if they
do not strike oil sooner.
Tue Calaveras’ Chronicle says :—On
Tuesday last, an’ Indian was caught in a
bear trap and‘instantly killed at Big Meadows, Alpiné county. He had seen the trap
baited with a quarter of mutton, which he
conclided to steal and was caught in the act.
Thé fall of the trap was made of heavy timAer and armed with heavy spikes which entered the Indian's: body. It is suspected
that he had been guilty of several murders
iu that vicinity.
CANDIDATE FoR CLERK. —We understand
that M. D. Boruck, editor of the Spirit of the
Times, will be a candidate for Clerk of the
‘next Assembly. Mr. Bortick is in every wiy
q@ilified for the position of Clerk. and by his
constant devotion to principle has merited
and deserves the support of the Union men
elect to the Assembly. No aspirant has
‘stronger claims than Mr. Boruck.
