’ “The editor of the Transorirr is a

about clear water that comes from hydraulic mines, and it is a great pleasure
to note the fact that the one here referred

RESTRAINING WORKS,
We Aré Always Ready Now To Please The
Valleyites.
During the past twelve years-we have
been ready upon the spur of the moment
to do or say anything. to the discotnfiture
of the valleyites, but now the reverse is
our present status, Anything to please
our valley friends is our motto since they
held out the ‘olive branch.” They (or
seme of the valley papers) object to dams
being built, but have no objections to
a uk works.” After this, in referriug to dams, if we donot forget our
selves, we shall say ‘‘ restraining works,’
wisich ithe mountain reader must interpret as“ meaning dams. One phrase is
for the valley and the other for the
mountains, but “in common parlance ‘i
is a digtinction without a difference.”

°<~” MINES AND MINING.
—
‘ania Wants to Create a New” Executive
Depariment.
Representative Caminetti has. introduced a bill to create a new department,
adding one more member to the President’s Cabinet.
The object is to develop and take better care of the mining iuterests of the
country. This new Governmental division will be known as the Departinent of
Mines and Mining,-and the official in
charge will be called the Secretary of
Mines and Mining. He will have an assistant, and the salaries of both will be
the same as those of dhe other secretaries
and their assistants. The bill takes the
Mining Bureau, including the sale ! of
mineral lands and the Geological Survey,
from the Interior’ Department, and the
. ment, and placea them in the new section
of the Government. If the bill passes it
will go into effect on Mareh 4, 1893.

MS ON THE YUBA
‘ This Is The Way The Marysville Democrat
‘Talks “Ba Up
The question of ing mining by
the hydraulic process apparently depends
on the erection of a system of dams to restrain the debris from the mines, particularly for the Yuba river and its tributaries. Itis no longer opposed by the
valley people, at least until the experiment has been thoroughly tested, and. it
is agreed to by the representatives of the
miners, or will be officially agreed to in a
short time, that this class of mining now
being conducted contrary te the injunctions of the courts shall cease until the
work of building dams has been sufficiently advanced to hold said debris and keep
agreed to by representatives ofthe valley
and-also ef the miners, that all shall
henceforth work in unity te obtain aid in
the shape of an appropriation from ‘the
treasury of the United States to build the
necessary dams. Kepresentative men,
three selected by the miners, Robert
MeMurray, Niles Searls and J. B, Hobgon, and the same number to represent
thé Valley interest, are Grove L. Johnson,
George Ohleyer and James Ferris, who
will meet at the National Capitol in a
few days and at once: preceed to work
with a view of getting the necessary appropriation during the present session of
Congress.
It ia believed that these gentlemen will
veceive the active co-operation of all of
the Senators and}Representatives from the
Pacitic Coast, and that the work can be
commenced the latter part of the present
year. There ia then no longer a reason
to oppose the building of dams nor to
question the advisability of it, because te
do so will show had faith on our part-and
will do no good, while it may do harm:
The dams that are to ‘be built, will, of
course, be located by United States engineers sulected for that purpose, proviled
there is an appropriation made by ConGress, and the question 0 location is one
that concerns Marysville more than any
other city in the State. “We are located
so near the hills and mines, and the grade
is sogreat that much of the heavy material has already reached this far including
rocks and stones of considerable size,
which accounts for the fact that the channel ef the river dows not now scour out as
it did a few years ago. A good substantial rock dam built in the vicinity of Deguerre point Would restrain this heavy
material from encroaching on Marysville,
and that is the one dam that should be
built first, because while it will protect
us fn this respect it weuld permit of the
working of the Smartsville and Mooney
Flat mines,

A few. days ago we called the attention
of the officers to the fact’ that peddlers of
goods came te this city almost every
week te sell their wares in competition
with our merchants without taking out a

reading the article im the Transcript,

not do my duty. ‘The first peddler 1 get

SHILLYSHALLYING. .
Tho Contemplible Course Pursued by 8. F.
Supervisors.
Post: The action, or, rather, the fail:
ure to act, of the Beard of Supervisors of
this city on the request of the Miifers’
Association for a municipal apprepriation
to assist in paying the expenses of presenting the case of the miners to Congress was ch ldish and silly in the extreme. The board voted $1000, then
amended it to $500, then reconsidered
the amendment, and finally wound up by
making no appropriation af all,
That is a very fair sample of the, way
things are done in this city, Here is a
proposition which, if it can be carri.d
through, would benefit San Francisco by
millions of dollars. There must be a
great.deal of preliminary work done,
and even if the Miners’ Association does
not succeed in getting an appropriation
at the present session of Congress it will
put the matter in train-to be acted
upon later, aud yet the Board of Supervisors could not see their way to aiding
such an undertaking to the extent of a
single dollar, lf it‘had been some sort
of a pleasure excursion or junketing trip, .
have found the money yhickly enough.
Thé committee of the Miners Association will not stay at home on account of
the narrow-mindédness of the Board of
Supervisors of thia city. Placer county
has voted $500 and other counties other
sums, and the rest will be made up by
subscriptions among private persons. It
puts the San Francisco board in a very
ridiculous attitule, thongh, to vote an
appropriation for such a purpose and
then undo its own wok in the next
breath. If it were going to say uo, it
should have said it in the firs ‘place,”’
There is general indignation in Nevada
City over the course pursued by such
narrow-minded men as compose the
supervisors of San Francisco. They
draw our life’s blood out of us and then
ery for the carcasa. The bulk of the
money taken out of our mines goes to
build up the ungrateful city ; vet a little
assistance is asked of them by the Minera’ Association to help pour more gold
into their coffers, avd thereby help the
miners. Instead of doing this, these
miserable supervisors turn tail upon us.

LONDON THEATFR TOUTS
Mow Patrons Are Made Miserable by
Cloak, Programme and Other Fieuds,
You have scarcely put your nose inride a theater before you are-seized upon
and called to stafid and deliver. First it
ls your coat. Men and women rush after
you and pester you for your coat. They
would rejoice if all were foolish enough
to yield to their importunate demands,
and risk colds; coughs, influenza and
. bronchitis for the rest 6f their natural
life. Why. it is madness to venture into
the stalls without a draft protector.
Modern theaters are so constructed that
they are mere draft traps. .
If you are seated near the door you
& stiff neck. You must wrap your cloak
kround you and be eareful to protect,
your legs from the blasts of wind that!
pour in from every crack and canny. If
you are in the center of the stalls, at
many theaters directly the curtain is
raised a tornado of wind rushes across .
the footlights and catches you by the
throat. I often think that women are
mad who venture into theaters with low
dresses in winter time. It is bad enough
for men.
And yet these attendants get quite of.
fended if we do not leave behind us the
ovly garments that will protect us from
sudden death. Remember that no one
is free from the theater highwaymen.
Even those who go in with orders cannot
get out of the cloakroom or prograyinie
tux. At last they must pay. -! remember. once going into a» theater with a
friend who had a keen sensé of the ludicrous. . think it must have been W.
8. Gilbert: It was a morning performance and hewas attacked in the usual
way:
“Goat; sir!”
* “What do you want with it?”
“To take it off."
“Very well,” he murmured innocently.
The highwayman prepared to strip off
hia coat, and behold! my friend, who
had prepared for the dodge, walked
away in his shirt. sleeves!. He had only
put on his overcoat, with nothing un
derneath it.
Unconcerned he was preparing to enNer-the stalls coatiess, when the attendant rushed after him,
“Look here, sir, you must not go into
the stalls like that!" :
“Why not?" he asked with-a bland
and innocent air. “You asked for my
coat. You have got it, What more can
you want?"
The-coat and cloak fiends having been
disposed of, you encounter the. second
rank of touts. Now itis a programme
for which you must pay, They insolently bar your passage. Thoy dun you
and din into your ears, ‘Programme,
sir!” It is not a civil request to know
if you would like a programme or not,
but ademand with an implied threat.
The implication is that you aro a stingy
person, who has no right to be seen: in
the stalls,
But this is not all. Having gone
through the first easy stages of theatrical
purgatory, you are worried all the evening with ice sellers atid chocolate vendors and stale cake providers. if you are
in the stalls, safely wrapped up from
the drafts, these touts edge in between
the very. narrow and uncomfortable
stalls and generally make hay. They
tread on your toes, they disturb the little nest you have made, they make havoc
with the ladies’ buck hair, pulling out
confiding hairpins and crushing the result of thé maid’s handiwork. They
don't care if they dig you in the eye
with an ice tray or powder you with the
refuse of sponze cake or bury you under
chocolate boxes.
Their duty is to make as mnch money
tor. It is not their fault, poor. things,
They all got a commission on their
wares und it is their duty to tout.—
Clement Scott in London Graphic.

rise to the popular belief that every man

situated in the immediate neighborhood
of that institution; and who, well aware
of his likeness to the learned doctor,
carefully copies the latter in dress, bearing and de:neanor, A few days ago the
professor was walking homeward from
his lecture room. when a gentleman, enHrely unkinowa-to him, stopped him in
