What the Son: Francsto Nows ‘Lotter Has * The convention.of miners Which met in this city“ haa attracted ~publ’e more forcibly than ever to the importance of the mining industry in California. Never before, since the d ys when gold alone was considered the source of our wealth, have so many representatives from the mining region been gathered together in San Franisco. Their presence has awakened old memories, recalling scenes in the early history ‘of California. Everything now points to the revival of mining and a marked increase if the annual preduction of gold, which will naturally follow. The main object in holding this conventiun is to consider the proper measures for insuring the resumption of work in the hydraulic mines, the stoppage of which has resulted in serious injury to the industry. The question is how to permit the work to continue without detrinent to the agricu tural interests.of the valleys.—’Fhe miners acknowledge that the farmers have equities on their‘ side, ‘and the latter now. frankly admit&that the provisions of the present law area hardship as they stand in regard to the total prohibition of mining. The hostile feeling has died out on both sides, and the question will in the future receive calm consideration, looking toward the protection of the interests of all. The importance of the matter has also been recognized by the Federal Government, which*appointed a commission for the purpose of inquiring inte and reporting on the extent to which the debris from the hydraulic mines had ubstructed the ‘navigation of the rivers and damaged the farming lands.’ Restricted in their labors by the ridiculously in‘adequate appropriition—of -~$10;000, the Comimisoners could do little but review the situation. During the course of their investigation, they, however, procured sufficient data to enable. them to make valuable suggestions, Their report, which was published, after brietly réciting the history of hydraulic mining, the methods of working and process of law whereby it was suspended, goes on to give an estimate the loss along the rivers aggregates a legal status of the question, express the opinion that the mining debris could be so far impoundyd that it would cause no injury touny interest or property. Toward several dams at different points along the rivers, the cest being estimated at $1,690,000, and $20,000 annually tor maintaining havigation on the Feather river. It would be beyond the power of the dams, and there is nothing left but for the Federal government to come to the assistanee of the people of California, and ‘The government will benefit largely by doing s0,-from the addition of from $10,the gold’of the gountry, Californiashas.added materially to thefact should not be overlooked. Since the discovery of gold: here; the world’s gold circulation has been increased by due in # great measure to the output of the entire production of California gold, not less than nine-tenths has been yielded by the auriteroua gravels, in which more than $100,000,000 has. been invested. But outside of the direct benefit which 10 world at large will deriye from the revival of this branch of the mining indastry, the people of this State engaged in business of all kinds will profit m a still greater degree. The miner aids every. other calling, 'while’ he competes with none. ‘The State presents an illimitable field fer mining outside of this particular branch of,the industry, There is scarcely a county which does not possess ~ valuable mineral deposits of-some kind, and all. tlidt is required to develép them. is capital.

It lies on the senny side of a hill overlooking the South Yuba, and commands a pleasant. view of the surrounding country. The population numbers seventy-two souls and supports a church: and a Sunday-school. It also has a public hall and can boast of having 8 nice a coimtry school-house as is to be found in Nevada county. The place is prosperous, though not as much so as when hydraulic mining was carried or. It suffered a severe blow in the suspen" sion of, that industry, but soon recavered and gained a new footho}d im the opening up of the gravel beds by the drifting process. The Union mine, owned by C. 0. Jepsen, A. Rauch, Mra. C. Jopyen, F. Beck, J. Jepsen, R. Rosin and J. C. Jorganah, was opened up in 1888 and has paid its regular dividends ever since. The mine employs. about fifty men and is superintended by C. O. Jepsen, who is an able and efficient miner. * The Waukeshaw mine is still being drifted extensively and continues to hold a fair reputation, As a hydraulic mine it ranks high, having put into circulation many thousand dollars. It is now owned by W. 0. Williams, J. Evans-and. J. Jones, The Eureka mine, adjoiiing the Waukeshaw, is being prospected by a few citizens of Relief Hill, and bids fair to. become a paying investment. Among other mines of the place are the Blue Lead, E.gle and ‘North Star. The Fureka Lake Company owns two hundred and twenty acres of” hydraulic workiiig. As a gold-bearing district, Relief Hill ranks among the first. Some very rich deposits have been taken out, and the total output since '51 can be safely estimated at $1,000,000.

THEY WILL Suspend All Hydraalckiog Until 1t-Can be Done Legally, The Sutter Farmer seems to ‘have a lurking suspicion that the miners will not keep faith in discontinuing hydraulic operations pending the development of the plans agreed upon at the late State Conventien, and says: “Past experience points to a different course pursued by them and shows a record of broken pledges and willful disregard for the iajunctions issued. The the circumstances are justified in. protecting their interests by keeping watch over the mouitors to report any case where the little giant may be in operation, Strict vigilance is necessary at all times, and when the miner fully demon. strates by his actions that he has stopped work to await the futher investigation of the question, the Anti-debris Association will gladly recall the watchmen and cease te vonsider the monitor in a suspicious light. Until that time the valleys and riyers must be protected as before.” ° The Union says: To the abeve it may be answered that the miners heretofore . : have made no pledges, and therefore could not have broken any, but as_ evidence of the sincere spiritin which they have met the farmers now, the resolution presented by Mr. Irelan, at the consultatien held at Sacramento the past week, is explicit, and they will de all in their power to prevent any mining that will . be a cause of complaint en the part of the farmers. we” SUDDEN DEATH Of An Ex-Postmaster and Prominent Man of Benicia.

It is quite uncertain when we leave Copenhagen. In any case this afternoon at 7 o'clock—it may be also early the day after tomorrow; but quite certain tomorrow at noon. We shall, of course, choose the sea journey, for the land journey suits us much better. For this reason it is not yet decided which we shall prefer. I think we shall go by sea as well as by land. When we leave the steamer we get into the train—that is to suy, on another steamer—I mean a steamship on rails, or rather an express train in the water. Weare mainly afraid of seasickness, therefore we remain as long as possible on the ocean. For after all one travels best on terra firma; therefore the sea journey is as good as settled. We travel via Berlin, where you may await me at the station; but you can save yourself the trouble, as we shall not touch Berlin under any consideration. We shall travel -viaStéttin: When I say Stettin I mean Danzig. What's the good of us going to Danzig? Naturally we shall go direct from Copenhagen per ship to Konigsberg.

Later he started with the bride and four friends for the Howell place, when the singletree broke, the horses kicked themselves . loose and ran away, leaving the party in the mud.

In order to economize space and weight, steel is being used for the construction, at the Chicago exhibition, of a chimney which, when completed, will be 250 feet high. The steel varies in thickness from 5-82 inch’ at top to 3g inch at the bottom. The lower part of the chimney is lined with fire brick 8 inches deep, formed to. fit. the shell compactly. round. Above this hollow tile is-used. The weight of a brick chimney of this size would be almost 700 tons, while in steel it willbweigh, including the linings, a little less than 250 tons. The outside diameter of the chimney is 9 feet 5 inches, whereas had it been constructed of brick it would be 16 feet 6 inches, a great saving of space being thus effected. —Exchange, Why He Gave Away Overshoes, “We have a shoemaker in our town,” says a Quebee man, *‘whose business in selling overshoes, has been ruined by a hustling rubber house, and who, this winter, to get even, had a great opening sale, at which he gave to every purchaser of shoos a pair of rubber overshoes, upon the soles of which was his advertisement reversed so thut at every step the wearers take through the snow they leave his EY i ent neatly printed in their er-PFhe effect is nuigical and powerful.

What the Son: Francsto Nows ‘Lotter Has * The convention.of miners Which met in this city“ haa attracted ~publ’e more forcibly than ever to the importance of the mining industry in California. Never before, since the d ys when gold alone was considered the source of our wealth, have so many representatives from the mining region been gathered together in San Franisco. Their presence has awakened old memories, recalling scenes in the early history ‘of California. Everything now points to the revival of mining and a marked increase if the annual preduction of gold, which will naturally follow. The main object in holding this conventiun is to consider the proper measures for insuring the resumption of work in the hydraulic mines, the stoppage of which has resulted in serious injury to the industry. The question is how to permit the work to continue without detrinent to the agricu tural interests.of the valleys.—’Fhe miners acknowledge that the farmers have equities on their‘ side, ‘and the latter now. frankly admit&that the provisions of the present law area hardship as they stand in regard to the total prohibition of mining. The hostile feeling has died out on both sides, and the question will in the future receive calm consideration, looking toward the protection of the interests of all. The importance of the matter has also been recognized by the Federal Government, which*appointed a commission for the purpose of inquiring inte and reporting on the extent to which the debris from the hydraulic mines had ubstructed the ‘navigation of the rivers and damaged the farming lands.’ Restricted in their labors by the ridiculously in‘adequate appropriition—of -~$10;000, the Comimisoners could do little but review the situation. During the course of their investigation, they, however, procured sufficient data to enable. them to make valuable suggestions, Their report, which was published, after brietly réciting the history of hydraulic mining, the methods of working and process of law whereby it was suspended, goes on to give an estimate the loss along the rivers aggregates a legal status of the question, express the opinion that the mining debris could be so far impoundyd that it would cause no injury touny interest or property. Toward several dams at different points along the rivers, the cest being estimated at $1,690,000, and $20,000 annually tor maintaining havigation on the Feather river. It would be beyond the power of the dams, and there is nothing left but for the Federal government to come to the assistanee of the people of California, and ‘The government will benefit largely by doing s0,-from the addition of from $10,the gold’of the gountry, Californiashas.added materially to thefact should not be overlooked. Since the discovery of gold: here; the world’s gold circulation has been increased by due in # great measure to the output of the entire production of California gold, not less than nine-tenths has been yielded by the auriteroua gravels, in which more than $100,000,000 has. been invested. But outside of the direct benefit which 10 world at large will deriye from the revival of this branch of the mining indastry, the people of this State engaged in business of all kinds will profit m a still greater degree. The miner aids every. other calling, 'while’ he competes with none. ‘The State presents an illimitable field fer mining outside of this particular branch of,the industry, There is scarcely a county which does not possess ~ valuable mineral deposits of-some kind, and all. tlidt is required to develép them. is capital.

It lies on the senny side of a hill overlooking the South Yuba, and commands a pleasant. view of the surrounding country. The population numbers seventy-two souls and supports a church: and a Sunday-school. It also has a public hall and can boast of having 8 nice a coimtry school-house as is to be found in Nevada county. The place is prosperous, though not as much so as when hydraulic mining was carried or. It suffered a severe blow in the suspen" sion of, that industry, but soon recavered and gained a new footho}d im the opening up of the gravel beds by the drifting process. The Union mine, owned by C. 0. Jepsen, A. Rauch, Mra. C. Jopyen, F. Beck, J. Jepsen, R. Rosin and J. C. Jorganah, was opened up in 1888 and has paid its regular dividends ever since. The mine employs. about fifty men and is superintended by C. O. Jepsen, who is an able and efficient miner. * The Waukeshaw mine is still being drifted extensively and continues to hold a fair reputation, As a hydraulic mine it ranks high, having put into circulation many thousand dollars. It is now owned by W. 0. Williams, J. Evans-and. J. Jones, The Eureka mine, adjoiiing the Waukeshaw, is being prospected by a few citizens of Relief Hill, and bids fair to. become a paying investment. Among other mines of the place are the Blue Lead, E.gle and ‘North Star. The Fureka Lake Company owns two hundred and twenty acres of” hydraulic workiiig. As a gold-bearing district, Relief Hill ranks among the first. Some very rich deposits have been taken out, and the total output since '51 can be safely estimated at $1,000,000.

THEY WILL Suspend All Hydraalckiog Until 1t-Can be Done Legally, The Sutter Farmer seems to ‘have a lurking suspicion that the miners will not keep faith in discontinuing hydraulic operations pending the development of the plans agreed upon at the late State Conventien, and says: “Past experience points to a different course pursued by them and shows a record of broken pledges and willful disregard for the iajunctions issued. The the circumstances are justified in. protecting their interests by keeping watch over the mouitors to report any case where the little giant may be in operation, Strict vigilance is necessary at all times, and when the miner fully demon. strates by his actions that he has stopped work to await the futher investigation of the question, the Anti-debris Association will gladly recall the watchmen and cease te vonsider the monitor in a suspicious light. Until that time the valleys and riyers must be protected as before.” ° The Union says: To the abeve it may be answered that the miners heretofore . : have made no pledges, and therefore could not have broken any, but as_ evidence of the sincere spiritin which they have met the farmers now, the resolution presented by Mr. Irelan, at the consultatien held at Sacramento the past week, is explicit, and they will de all in their power to prevent any mining that will . be a cause of complaint en the part of the farmers. we” SUDDEN DEATH Of An Ex-Postmaster and Prominent Man of Benicia.

It is quite uncertain when we leave Copenhagen. In any case this afternoon at 7 o'clock—it may be also early the day after tomorrow; but quite certain tomorrow at noon. We shall, of course, choose the sea journey, for the land journey suits us much better. For this reason it is not yet decided which we shall prefer. I think we shall go by sea as well as by land. When we leave the steamer we get into the train—that is to suy, on another steamer—I mean a steamship on rails, or rather an express train in the water. Weare mainly afraid of seasickness, therefore we remain as long as possible on the ocean. For after all one travels best on terra firma; therefore the sea journey is as good as settled.
