IEpIoNATIoN MEETNG.-A very large, quiet
and determined meeting of the citizens and
property holders Of Scott Valley was held 10

which. when organized, was declared to be an
unrestrained expression of their contempt for

Gently treated by one True blood, who at the
late land sale held at Humboldt Bay, took ad-
vantage of the rejected claims of those who had
settled and pre-empted in good faith, run up
said property and bid Il off, aud contrary to
the knowledge of actual settlers. These men
had used every effort to pre-empt strictly in &C
cordance with the law, and because of inform
ality in the proceedings OF q Land Agent, they
did not expect such treatment at the hands of {
neighbor.
The meeting of citizens on this occasion mum
bered between two and three hundred persons,
comprising most of the actual settlers of the
valley. Resolutions of determined character
were passed, that Trueblood unwillingly con-
sented TO deed over all such lands as he had
purchased, at the rates be had paid for them
after which the meeting adjourned.
The meeting, though of a positive and deter.
mined character was dignifed and harmonious
in all their proceedings. They had. however
met for transacting business promptly, aud il
was perhaps well for Trueblood that he yielded
to their demands.-Siskiyou Chronicle
