Nevada County Official Press . omeniaiall WEDNESDAY SEPT, 5, 1883. eee Fight the Devil with Fire: San Francisco, Sept. 1, 1883, Eprror Transcript:—The Wood fi:ld vs. Bloomfield case is drawing to a close—or that stage of the case allotted for taking testimony. The ninety days have expired, but in consequence of the general disturbance of business incident to the Conclave week the respective parties have stipulated for a few more days, And it ig probable they will consume all business days up to Sept. 11—the date fixed for argument. Of course neither party will be prepared for argument,as it will take at least one month to digest the miners’ mass _of testimony taken. Had the testimony been taken in Court, it would not have consumed more than forty days time, as the presiding Judge would have promptly ruled out much superflous and irrelevant testimony: and kept the parties down to the issue. The examination attracts no at‘ention whatever in this city seither from the public or the press. The people do not believe that navigation has been imyeded or that the: Bay is threatened. They know by hearsay that some lowlands near the rivers have been covered by invading slickens but do not consider it a sufficient reason to check an annual gold _productiofi of twelve millions per annum. But the apathy of the pvople of the mountains is inexplicable and a subject of comment by all former residents of your county. While the valley towns and counties are passing resolutions and telegraphing them to the Secretary of War remonstrating against measures which will protect both the miner and the farmer; and furthermore giving material aid by appropriations from their county treasuries,the mountain people are silent and:inert. It seems as though they had calmly folded their arms and awaited the day of their destruction with the equanimity of the Turk, who takes no measures to avert impending evils, for the doctrine of ‘‘Kismet” teaches him ‘‘What is to be will be.” Ona the contrary the anti-debris people, emboldened by your inaction are marshaling their forces, contributing money without stint, buying up their press, terrorizing their officials and making public sentiment. ; Already the Secretary of War is but a mere puppet in their hands, ‘and their malign influence is felt in Con, gress. We have looked in vain for some action on the part of the great aud prosperous mining counties . through their Boards of Supervisors and town councils, The assertions t:legraphed to the Secretary of War, ‘ standing unrefuted and not even denied will be construed as admissions. If they are believed to reflect the sentiment of the people of California, mining as an industry is doomed and our beautiful mountain counties must be depopulated. Already their press have sounded the tocsin against quartz mining. The recent change from steam to water. power in the Idaho Co. was the subject of an articlein the ‘‘Appeal” in which the writer complains that 350 inches more of soiled water is to be added to the supply of the Excelsior ditches, and aStockton paper boldly advocates the suppression of all classes of mining. Meantime the mountain press is wrangling over the employment of a few Chinese miners in “SierraCo. which though greatly to be deplored, is but a slight evil compared to the innumerable hordes who swarm in the valleys and reduce white men to the condition of tramps. People of Nevada and Sierra should look the situation in the face and fight the devil with fire.” WA. 8, A JoKE near*’Shelbyville, .Ind., was transformed into almost a tragedy.
