Gold Flat, Neuado, Jan. A. 1852.


MIR. EDITOR - At q NEE ting of tht
citizens and miners of Gold Flat and Vi
cinity, held on Monday eve ming, Jan. 8
the following resolutions were undni.
mously adopted. The meeting was char.
acterized by all that the re solutions sx-
press--a determined purpose to no lon.
ger quietly submit to the gross and out
rageous impositions occasioned by the
system of monopoly which the -four
dealers of San Francisco have adopted.
Resolved, That it sometimes becomes
necessary when abuses exist in commu-
mites, to speak in strong language, and
to act in a manner that will secure
their rIection.
Resofred, That in the present scarcity
of provisions. (occasioned, as we b elieve.
by few heartless, selfish spectators,
who because they possess the power, do
not hesitate to take advantage of the
ecessities of their fellow men, we re-
cognize an abuse of gigantic magnitude
-one that calls for immediate and de-
cisive action.
ResoiUed That we most heartily SYM
pathize withour brother miners of Chips
Flat. Kanaka Creek, and other places,
who have given expression to their sem
tlmcnts touching this evil, and that we
fully endorse their resolves.
Resolued, That we recommend call
of county convention to concert meas
ures to remedy this evil-if it be posi-
BILE, we would have peaceable remedy
if not, we would teach the authors of
our distress lesson that need be learn
ed but once-we would teach such men
that they cannot, with impnnity, prac
tice system of monopoly more heartless
than high way robbery--by throwing
open their ware houses and distributing
their boarded contents among the fam
ishing thousands who have teen reduced
to the last extremity by this nefarious
system.
Resolved, That we are fully deter
min d that this evil shall be corrected,
and that we are ready, and willing to
assist in any concerted plan to execute
and carry out the sentiments here ex-
pressed, regardless of consequences.
After the adoption Of the above reso-
lutions, the subject of a county conven-
tion was canvassed, and it was finally
Resolced, That it is expedent, and
that we do therefore call upon the citi-
zens and miners of Nevada county. to
meet in mass at Dramatic Hall, in Ne
vada, on Wednesday, Jan. ~, 1859, at
10 o'clock, A. NJ, to concert measures
of remedy for the present existing evils
that threaten us with poverty and fam
inc.
The secretary was instructed to fur
nish copy of the acts of this meeting
for publication in the Nevada Journal,
with arequest that the papers of San
Francisco also lake notice.
