NE of the most important practical questions before the people of Northern California’ today is whether the “temporary” forest reserves should be made permanent by the .Federal Government. As set forth in the petition issued by the Nevada County Promotion Commanent forest reserve under the existing reserve laws, great damage will result to the county’s interests, its material advancement will be retarded, and its mining, stock and agriThe greater portien of the land withdrawn from entry is not suitable for forest reservation and will not conserve the purposes for which it is intended it should, and there are thousands of acres unfit for reservation, located within the proposed reserve and from which Nevada county receives in taxes a yearly income of several thousand dollars, which would under the conditions of the proposed reserve laws be turned back to the Government, causing a great financial loss to our county. These are true cold facts which are not} contradicted or gainsayed by anyone who is well posted, and what is true of the result to Nevada county would also be the same in every mountain .county in Northern California. Reserve would cause great and irreparable injury to the advancement of Northern California, and especially Nevada county, and for this one. reason alone ‘the scheme should be -abandoned;~ Many of the newspapers of he. State do not give the Forest Reserve propesition the vigorous and strenuous opposition which they should, as they are half carried away with the fad of forest preservation, and lose sight of the: great injury it will inflict upon Northern and Central California. Just note that the” proposed reserve includes the pine belt of the Sierras clear to the Oregon line. The new reserve scheme will eventually destroy all lumbering and mining enterprises within its boundaries and in a brief time turn the entire section into a wilderness again. All the talk about mining and lumbering under the regulations of the Secretary of the Interior is bosh. No one will touch mines unless plant and be compelled to accept the dictation of a Government agent as to the trees he may’cut? The whole scheme is impracticable and the truth and fact is that it closes out . the mining and lumbering industries, and in that event, in a few years all California will have to go to Oregon aud Wash: ington for this lumber. The private holdings of the lumber companies will be. exhausted in a few years and in the meantime they can combine and raise the price on lumber to please themselves. . No opposition saw mills could compete as the timber would be tied up and out of reach. It would diminish materially the taxable property in many counties and break up their organization. All private holdings within the prescribed boundaries would eventually go back into the hands of the government. The great tracts belonging to the big lumber companies, such as thé Towle Bros, Co., Sierra] Lumber Co.,.and others that have already been lotrel of timber, will be turned back to the government and exchanged for scrip worth now in San Francisco from three to five dollars per acre, and all valueless Railroad lands will go the same way—a bad steal from start to finish under the guise of public benefit. If grazing is stopped on the reserves, one can see where it puts the cattle and sheep industry of California, and that will follow as sure as the reserves are confirmed by the government. Who the promoters of this scheme are is past finding out, and unless the peeple of the mountain counties of CaliSouls wake up, and the press unite in a savage warfare, the President, who has got his fill of forest reserve, will inflict ‘his great wrong on our State. It seems that because Michigan and some other States have cut the timber which the trade of the prairie States demanded, and. cut off large areas, we are not to be allowed to cut any. There is now a corps of dudes from Washington looking over these reserves, aud they are to tell us what we need! Have we no Californians capable of filling those places? Now, what has become of our representatives—Senators and Congressmen? Are they all dead? We trust the entire press from Placer, ElDorado, and Amador counties on the south, to Shasta, Siskiyou spi Del Norte counties om the north, will rouse themselves to aggressive action in the matter and put a hot iron into our Senators and our representative from Humboldt, and wake them sharp, so that we can stave this trouble off until we can moters. Don’t be fooled by the Smooth twaddle in the law. Ask any man of hard sense how much he would invest in caprices of the Secretary of ‘the Interior; or ‘the same in lumbering. The peoare are aroused into united action soon and fight the i sition to a finish, unmask the hidden proiA country in 1847. trial. panies. 2 ~. Pioneer Ba. .
