Affairs at Grass Valley.
Grass VALLEY. Dec. u. I25.

Mr.. EDITOR Our town has within
few days past witnessed several excit-
ing scenes, owing to the presumption Of
a few individuals who seem to be so
grossly inconsistent, that they act as
though none but themselves have any
rights or privileges. 1t appears that u
company of about twelve members, head
ed by man named Stone, and known
as the Empire Water Company, have
dug ditch CT about 3 miles in length
for the purpose of supplying themselves
and others with water. But now they
claim all the mining ground over which
the ditch extends, and whenever a mi
ner begins working any whero on the
route, they politely step up to him and
say, ave claim that ground" Sc, and
forthwith begin their annoyance which
has led to SO much difficulty, that the
patience of most Of the miners in the
place are getting quite tired Of it and
unless the Empire Company are very
cautious, they will before long regret
they ever began playing the cormorant,
Another difficulty has arisen between Il
Mr.. William Smith and the Gold Hill
Company. Months ago the G. II. c.
staked off some building lots but have
not built, and recently Mr.. Smith s. Co.
discovered these lots to be good slucing
ground, and began working on them
But the Gold Hill Company are trying to
drive them off certainly great busi-
ness for the Company have even
issued summons to that effect. Com
sequently II mass meeting Of the miners
was called to protect Mr. Smith s. Co.
in their rights; and it was unanimously
resolved that they-Smith & Co. should
not be molcsted in working their claims.
No, Mr.. Editor, it is painful to think
that we have men in our midst who are
so short.sighted as to think that because
they dig ditch miles in length, that
they have right to all the country over
which the ditch extends. That they
have perfect right to use and sell the
water and to take claim, or even two
claims each, to remunerate themselves
for digging the ditch no one cares about
questioning; but the claim to all is to
say the least, damnable presumptuous +;
and to think, also, that because they
stake off piece of ground for building
lots-and do not build-that men who
are looking about for claims to work are
unde' any obligations to their preten-
sions, is equally preposterous. We ad-
NIT that principle, and the great mass
of the people of that village had better
vamose, because about fifty people will
claim it all. 1t is 10 be hoped that these
men will cease interfering with the
rights of others, or they viii repent when
repentance will do them no good Mi
ners will not endure their nonsense much
longer Right wrongs no man.
