BILL to be introduced during the present session of the Legislature which should meet with little Opposition is that providing for the establishment of separate courts for the trial of children who may be accused of criminal offenses. It has been one of the disgraces of our modern civilization that children, comparatively innocent even if guilty of crime should have been subjected to the same treatment as hardened criminals. Too often the youthful offender, who might, with proper treatment, have _ been saved and madeinto a useful member of society, has \ been pushed downward into the criminal ranks. The California Cinb of San Francisco has prepared the bill which is to be presented, and which was favorably referred to in the inaugural address of the Governor. It provides, firstly, that the term “criminal” shall not be used in connection with children, but that, instead thereof, they shall be known as “delinquents”; secondly, that children shall not be tried or imprisoned ,with old and hardened offenders; and thirdly, that the “delinquent” be kept at home where the home influences aré good, and under the charge of a probation officer. This idea is by no meats a novelty. It has proved a success wherever it has been tried. In Chicago, for example during the past three years since a similar law went in effect, only sixty children have been sent to the-eounty jail. ta the three years before the law was enacted, 1,705 children were sent to that institution. Under the old system, in Chicago, as explained in the Inter-Ocean, “juvenile offenders were fined, and in lieu of payment sent to the bridewell or to the reform school: If complaints against them were. not sustained they were discharged, to return unrestrained to their old habits.

Debris Association, the California Debris Commission or the cowrts, lies now in Oalifornia, mainly in Siskiyou, Trinity, Del Norte and Humboldt ecctnties. The Caminetti law, which requires a permit and license from the Dabrie Commission, applies only to. those counties in the drainage basins of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers. Ino the first four counties named the rivers drain direct into the Pacific ocean and have no connection with the two main drainage rivers mentioned. In Trinity and Siskiyou counties there are immense beds of auriferous gravel, the largest portions of which as yet remain un touched. The sections referred to have one drawback and that Is the lack of a systematic and geueral water snpply. There ia plenty of water in the streams and generous annual rainfall. But most of the larger, and indeed the smaller hydraulic mines must provide their own water supply as best they can, for which reason large tracts of gravel are still “untouched. These counties pos-ess. no general ditch. systems such as exist in the central counties of the State. Inthe counties where hydraulic mining was first commenced ditch systems for selling water to miners were established between forty and fifty, years ago and bave since been enlarged and extended in many directions:» Immense reservoirs have been built and the water collected from A Large Rock Fel On Ben Hathaway In Amador County. Last evening O. O. Weisenberger received a telephone message from Jackson, Amador county, stating that Benjamin Hathaway had been eeriously injured in an accident at the Oneida mine, midway—between Jackson and Sutter, of which E. Hampton, formerly of this city, is supérin‘endent. It is the same mine in which Edward Durbin of this city lost his life a few months ego. This morning Mr. Weisenbérger received anotber telephone message ing particulars: Mr. Hathaway was bending over drilling, when a large rock fell from above, striking him in the back and catting a gash clear through the body of the unfortunate young man. That he was not instantly killed isa miracle, and at last accounts he was barely alive, Mrs, Hathaway, the young man’s mother, and Robert Hathaway, left here this morning to be at his bedside. . . The young man was raised in Nevada Oity, »nd left here about a year ago for Amador county. Personal Mention. Mrs. George B. Moora ff Graoitevills came down today on bhér way below. R. A. Thomas is over from Birchville, ~ ; J. V. Robinson is here from Indian Springs. W. Glover was up from Pleasant Valley today. Injured His Hand. = Thomas Harris of Gold Flat, while landing a car at the Champion mine this atternoon, was painfully injured. Ihe ear swung around, tearing his right hand frightfully. He came up town.to.Vinton’s. drugsturé. and. had. the wouud dressed. dry season. Therefore miners owning claims near the ditch line have had an advantage in be'‘ng able to purchase water supply without having to build their own systems, But ia Siskiyou and Trinity coanties no such general systems exist. Each claim mast provide its own watersupply. The result of.this is that the producing gravel mines are not as numerous as they should be considerlog the possibilities. There are many streams, plenty of sites for reservoirs, an abundant rain and snow fall and all the requisites for furni-hing water supply. But the miners themselves seldom have the capital necessary to bring in an extensive supply. Most of the money provided for the Sweepstake mine, which recently closed down ‘in Trinity county, was expended in obtaining a water supply and building ditches, flames, etc. This mine is higb up on a mountain, it. is true, but there are many other lo-er places where a general dite system could farsish. ualexpenditure.

Below quaranSheep Tax Bil The Gridley Herald says: “Among the matters which will come up for discussion at this session of the legislature is the sheep tax. This matter is of particular interest to many sheep owners who winter their sheep on the home ranges in the valleys but drive the flocks into the mountains for summer forage. For several years it bas been the custom of many mountain counties to levy a tax on all sheep coming into the mountain from outside counties, To avoid the inhibition placed by the constitution on special taxes the local sheep men were compelled to pay the same rate of. taxes, and they have begun to complain, The matter was brought up at the lest session, but nothing was done about it beyond spending a good deal of legislative wind and time in the discussion. This time there are to be one or more bills on the subject introduced and there is sufficient interest on both sides of the controversy to make it seem likely that the matter-will be voted upon, Senator Diggs will take up the fight, and V. Gianelli of Honcat, a prominent sheep map, will go to Sacramento todo a little lobbying in the interest of the valley eheep raisers.” The sheep men of the valley may think that they bave aright to drive their sheep over the roads in counties where they pay no taxes, almost ruinlog the-bighways for other traffic, bat the taxpayers in the mountains take a different view of the matter, add deem it but just that the sheep men should contribute some revenue for repairing the roads, The sheep in passing through not only eat up every vestige of vegetation, but in foraging around roll down large rocks into the roads, making them almost’ impassable fo: teams, That the sheep men should Protest egainet paying some tax to these mountain ccunties is beyond the pale of reason. vessel inbound or outbound has to break its way through fifteen or more miles of solid ice. and lower river is seriously crippled, Oyster boats are unable to reach port. pany bas practically suspended buat: ness.

The young man was raised in Nevada Oity, »nd left here about a year ago for Amador county. Personal Mention. Mrs. George B. Moora ff Graoitevills came down today on bhér way below. R. A. Thomas is over from Birchville, ~ ; J. V. Robinson is here from Indian Springs. W. Glover was up from Pleasant Valley today. Injured His Hand. = Thomas Harris of Gold Flat, while landing a car at the Champion mine this atternoon, was painfully injured. Ihe ear swung around, tearing his right hand frightfully. He came up town.to.Vinton’s. drugsturé. and. had. the wouud dressed. dry season. Therefore miners owning claims near the ditch line have had an advantage in be'‘ng able to purchase water supply without having to build their own systems, But ia Siskiyou and Trinity coanties no such general systems exist. Each claim mast provide its own watersupply. The result of.this is that the producing gravel mines are not as numerous as they should be considerlog the possibilities. There are many streams, plenty of sites for reservoirs, an abundant rain and snow fall and all the requisites for furni-hing water supply. But the miners themselves seldom have the capital necessary to bring in an extensive supply. Most of the money provided for the Sweepstake mine, which recently closed down ‘in Trinity county, was expended in obtaining a water supply and building ditches, flames, etc. This mine is higb up on a mountain, it. is true, but there are many other lo-er places where a general dite system could farsish. ualexpenditure.

Below quaranSheep Tax Bil The Gridley Herald says: “Among the matters which will come up for discussion at this session of the legislature is the sheep tax. This matter is of particular interest to many sheep owners who winter their sheep on the home ranges in the valleys but drive the flocks into the mountains for summer forage. For several years it bas been the custom of many mountain counties to levy a tax on all sheep coming into the mountain from outside counties, To avoid the inhibition placed by the constitution on special taxes the local sheep men were compelled to pay the same rate of. taxes, and they have begun to complain, The matter was brought up at the lest session, but nothing was done about it beyond spending a good deal of legislative wind and time in the discussion. This time there are to be one or more bills on the subject introduced and there is sufficient interest on both sides of the controversy to make it seem likely that the matter-will be voted upon, Senator Diggs will take up the fight, and V. Gianelli of Honcat, a prominent sheep map, will go to Sacramento todo a little lobbying in the interest of the valley eheep raisers.” The sheep men of the valley may think that they bave aright to drive their sheep over the roads in counties where they pay no taxes, almost ruinlog the-bighways for other traffic, bat the taxpayers in the mountains take a different view of the matter, add deem it but just that the sheep men should contribute some revenue for repairing the roads, The sheep in passing through not only eat up every vestige of vegetation, but in foraging around roll down large rocks into the roads, making them almost’ impassable fo: teams, That the sheep men should Protest egainet paying some tax to these mountain ccunties is beyond the pale of reason. vessel inbound or outbound has to break its way through fifteen or more miles of solid ice. and lower river is seriously crippled, Oyster boats are unable to reach port. pany bas practically suspended buat: ness.
