Stewart) Continuéd from last week The California Debris Commistotaling $800,000 to build barriers to restrain the debris already in the stream from moving farther down stream where it would damage the navigabie portion of the Sacramento river. The commission decided to build along, Jow dam near Daguerra Point on the Yuba river. It was necessary to build this on a great depth of tailings as it was impossible to reach bedrock. Although ‘great ingeunity was used by the enigineers in charge, they only proved that'a dam must have a secure ‘foundation in order to stick. The structure and the money was lost. Had this money been expended on a dam in the Narrows, it would not only have restrained the debris already in the stream, but would have provided the foundation for a greater structure behind which niany of the hydraulic mines of this area could have operated. The hydraulic miner is again to be criticized for not both asserting his rights in this matter and also cooperating with-the commissioners. Thehydraulic miner also sat. silently and permitted himself to be charged with all the debris in the streams; this is not true. The Sutter county agitator is eternally trying to prejudice the people of the Bay area by telling them that the hydraulic mines are filling up the bay, They make no mention of the more than 5,000,000 cubic yards of silt from natural erosion that finds its way down the Sacramento river to the bay every year. Farming operations, grazing on the steep sides of the Sierra’s all contribute their quota and hydraulic mining gets all the blame. The hydraulic miner should have raised Cain at being charged with the whole bill. This part of the article does not! apply to W. W. Waggoner of Ne-. vada City for he has worked overtime making investigations along this line and telling of his find-j ings.

It blithely passed the Senate and when one of our citizens wrote Senator Johnson about it, he had never heard of it; however, thanks to our Congressmen Engle. bright and Arentz of Nevada, it was _ killed in the House. We were just! lucky in having a mining engineer . as our representative; that’s all. If . we paid more attention to such things our representatives in public places would take the tip. These articles are not intended as fectures ,but an attempt to arouse . the people in these hills to their . rights to the point where they will . fight for them. A few days ago the “agin the government” portion of Sutter county population took some twenty of the Legislators to the Yuba City-Marysville area to view the vast damage done by the “hydraulic Vandals” of the 70’s and 80’s. They did not give the hydraulic miner any credit for the great stream—of gold that came through the channels of trade and enriched a goodly portion of their papulation. They did not point to any damage ‘done by hy‘draulic mining since 1920 because they could not. The’ Bullard’s Bar Dam was built on the North Yuba River that year, and there are now eleven hydraulic mines operating behind it each winter. They did not show any damage from this sources and cannot, or they weuld stop the operations. They did not tell these legislators that it was mining such as this, behind the dam, that the hydraulic miner was now proposing and not the unrestricted hydraulic mining of the 70's and 80’s. They did not tell them that the stoppage of hydraulic mining caused the hydraulic miner a loss of over $100,000,000.00 which he has never recovered, and the total loss shown to farm lands totals only $2,597,535.00 much of which has Tuesday enroute to Sacramento to attend the supervisors meeting held there.
