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

An example of the placer miner’s
laxity in fighting for his rights is’
reflected in his . representatives in
Congress on the Norbeck Bill,
which would have stopped all placer
mining in the national forests and
hampered other forms of mining in
that area. It blithely passed the
Senate and when one of our citizens wrote Senator Johnson about it,

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
