adopted in this county-but, while the
Bear River Ditch Company are doing the
good to the District they now do by the
introduction of their water to its most re-
mote points; and while they have an un-
redeemed capital of some $650OOO lying
out, it would be objectionable as well as
impertincnt to make any public remarks
upon the subject. We live in hopes that
by and bye the interests of the company
will admit Of a reduction in the first-cost
Of their water, and then by multiplying
our operations, and by employing a more
perfect and enlarged system Of working,
PLACER county will not only be what it
unquestionaby is, the most beautiful and
fertile, but will also become, we are as
sured, the most wealthy and prosperous
district of the State.
