California Indian Reservations.


HOoPA VALLEY, June otn, lebo.
EDITOR TRINITY JOURNAL in your paper OF
May goth | notice an extract copied from the But
ietin in regard TO the Reservations Of California,
and to Hoopa Valley in particular. As the ex-
tract might have tendency TO lead persons not
acquainted with the Reservations OF California
to think that the establishment Of 2 Reservation
in this valley was useless, ! thought few lines
on the subject might not be amiss. The writer
says, g If mistake not there are four already
in that part of the State, viz Mendocino, smith
River, Round Valley and Nome Lake. Now
the facts regards the Reservations named are
these The first named has been discontinued
Reservation, although the Government prop
erty has never been disposed Of The next, Smith
River, is on land that has been surveyed and
sold by Government to individuals, and has been
rented by Government every year Mt an expense
of from two to three thousand dollars. 1t never
can become Reservation without some special
provision is made for that particular locality, as
the presen. law only contemplatcs the establish
Inent of Reservations Government lands
Round Valley has been occupied as a Reservation
for some five years and is a Reservation by proc
lamat;on. But the settlers have never been
bought off; they have been notified not to make
any further Improvements on the Valley, which
is all that has been done. The Indians were
moved to the Valley. among the settlers, and have
remained there to the great dissatisfaction OF the
latter. whose lands have never as yet even been
appraised. The last named Nome Lake.. was
abandoned when Round Valley was taken, and
the Indians and Government property was all
moved to that place. Thus you see that Round
Valley and Hoopa are the only places where there
is probability of being permanent Reservations
With this explanation hope those who have
made up their minds that the establishment Of
Hoopa Valley Reservation was a useless outlay
of money or speculation, will give the devil
his due"
Hoping these explanations will be received as
kindly they are sent, am, yours,
IIOOPA.

answer in the foreclosure suit of Pezzoni VS..

executed to secure the payment of gold note
made prior to the passage of the Specific
Contract Act, and which was not stamped
this latter fact being the only matter in the
shape of defense to the action set up in the
answer-the Court held that the mere fact of
the want of a stamp was no reason why pay
ment of the note should be deferred until
suit. The note may be properly stamped on
the trial; and as to the right to pay a gold
note in legal tenders, which plaintiff pro-
poses to do after it has been properly stamp
ed. the Court adds that it is not competent
to the debtor to do So whether the note was
made before or after the Specific Contract
Act of 1868. The demurrer was sustained,
with leave to amend on payment of costs.

quently the Company, not wishing to inter-
fere with the business and pleasure of good

off on March 1st., thus securing to each full
attendance by our dancing citizens. which
otherwise would have been divided.
