‘MONDAY EVESING, ocr. 2, °93. The Hydraulic Men Believe the Time Is Ripe
A OOLONY IN THE FOOTHILLS.
Ayer Property of About 25,000 Acres in Yuba
and Nevada Counties to be Utilized.
Marysville Democrat: Many citzens of
this county are aware that C. F. Ayer has
bought feothill’ land to the amount
of about 25,000 acres, and that a
large majority of itis in this county within
a distance of twenty miles of. this city.
Nearly all of these purchases have been
made within two years past, and at prices
ranging from $12 to $25 an acre, according
to locatien and improvements. The lands
embrace some very good tracts for farming
purposes, and, with addition of water to irrigate during two or.three months of the
year, will produce fine creps of hay and cereals.
The question of fruit growing has been
thoroughly demonstrated, and ‘there are
some splendid orchards producing without
irrigation, ene in particular asfarup in the
hills as the Pet Hill House, just over the
west line of Nevada county.
Mr. Ayer and his associates are from the
New England States, and have plenty of
means te handle a colony to advantage to
make the investment profitable, and that is
the object of investing money in the land.
Mr. Ayer has spent the larger part of the
time during the past year ‘in visiting other
countries and studying the habits of different people with a view to obtaining,a desirable class of settlers who will, when once
placed in possession of a smal} bome cause it
to be impreved and become productive. Their
. plan‘of operation in the sale ef tracts to
actual settlers will be liberal and the terms
such as the occupants can comply with and
make a sufficient sun from the products to
pay for theland. A man who buys twenty
or forty acres will be required to pay only ixterest on the amount of purchase money during the first five years, the same being payable annually in advance. After the expira~
tion of the first five years the principal must
be paid in equal payments each year during
the next five years, #0 that the time allowed
for the payments of the home is ten years.
Of course these conditions can be changed ©
suit-the.-financi@l affairs. of men who, may
have means and wish to pay one-half or the
whole sum down. The company. will furish -water-from-their ditches at low rates .
for the irrigation ef the lands sold at the
same time will cause improvements . .to be
made in the roads, and otherwise to enhance
the value of the lands. The work of subdividing and arranging the lands for occupancy
will be commenced early in 1894 and is believed that there will be one hundred families located on the lands by the close of the
year, This will be followed up until the
’ entire lands have been put in possession of
gentlemen who have invested money in these
“foot hill lands will find it to their interest
to encourage the building of the railroad, of
which meation was made yesterday,

for some years past owing to the Sawyer
decision.
influential delegations from all the mining
counties so,that an impressive shew of
strength may be made to effect legislation in
the mining interest. There is a renewed
activity in gold mining just now owing to
the depression in silver mining and the attitade of the administration toward the white
metal. Therefore it is deemed & propitious
time for the gold mining interests to make
its wants known and to give notice to pelitical parties what is expected of them.
Nevada county has led off with the appointment of 117 delegates. Placer, Sierra,
Yuba, Plumas, El Dorado and Amador are
expected to send proportionately strong
delegations. There will also bean influential representation from Siskiyou, Trinity,
Shasta, Calaveras, Tuolumne, Mariposa, San
Bernardino and Fresno.
The hydraulic people think now is a good
time to push legislation that will permit a
revival of their branch .of mining. Some
concessions have already been made to
them, and‘the feeling that the anti-debris sentiment is not so pronounced and so virulent
as has been im the past. By getting the
sentiment of the mining ceunties crystallized in favor of vertain measures in advance .
of the coming political campaign it is hoped
to force the conventions oppesing parties to
take sides and thus make a cencrete issue
at the polls. The previous conventions
hela by the miners have been unimportant
compared to the one that is now getting
ready bo assemble.
The State Legislature has appropriated
$250,000 to build dams to restrain the debris into the rivers, contingent upen the
Federal Government appropriating a like
sum‘for the same purpose. The convention
will endeaver to shape matters so that the
congressional nominees of both parties will
be pledged to vete.and work to. obtain this
auxilary appropriation,
The Stewart mining bill is also te be thoroughly overhauled, as it is objectionable to
tute will probably be drafted and presented
for adoption. It is stated that the quantity
of drift mining ground patentable under the
provisions of Stewart’s bill is so small . that.
it will net pay to run the long bedrock tunnel mecessary to open the claims.
Another matter the convention will take
up is the alleged perversion of the mining
laws by rulings of the Interior Department.

cut a figure in the deliberations of the convention, and for that reasen the politica)
managers of both parties are watching the
course. of events with considerable interest. One of the moves that the professional
tions of political miners from San Francisco,
Alameda and other bay counties attend the
convention. Old stagers of both parties will
figure in these delegations. They will al!
sheut for hydraulic mining, but they will
endeavor. to shape the proceedings and resolutions to suit their own political or partisan
purposes. There will be a lot of faces familiar at political conventions to be seen among
the delegates to the Miners’ Convention,
If all signs are not at fault there is going te
be a lively political tussle when the convention assembles. The real miners are beginning te understand that they are going to
have a fight for supremacy with the steck
board and political miners, who will gather
in the interests of mining to make politics
for the next campaign.
