EDIToR USIoS RECORD Some time ago,
you called the attention Of our citizens to a
nuisance created By the 0phir and Feather
River Water Company, Immediately below
town. Shortly after this, Lewis Cunningham
visited our town on some business, and, st his
own request, number Of our citizens met him
at the Office of Mr. Granger, for the p1rpose of
arranging matters. Mr.. Cunningham then and
there solemnly promised US, in the presence of
bis Agent, Hewitt, that the Company would
repair and clean their bitches through and
below town BY the first Of March ard, as to
the pools of standing water which had been
kept up by the Company for years, and made
Oroville a perfect graveyard, our citizens
agreed to remove them at their own expense
From what l knew of Mr.. Cunningham and
his man Hewitt, heretofore, knew that said
promise Oh their part was made with no inten-
tion to keep the same, but only to lull US to
sleep. But l did suppose they would not
interfere with work done by Us at our own
expense; but even in this latter expectation,
was mistaken A few of our citizens went TO
work and tapped the old pools, below town, at
their own expense; but no sooner were they
dry. and the Grand Jury had adjourned, so
there was no danger of a criminal prosecution,
than the Company again turned the water into
the old reservoir. | am inclined to think there
is some truth in what friend told me some
time ago-namely: that the Company intend
to drive every white man from Oroyille, so they
can sell the ground to Cinnamon for mining
purposes. How long the citizens of Oroville
viii submit to this outrage, remains to be seen.
l suppose the Money King" and bis man
Friday consider the citizens of Orovlle so far
beneath them that even pledge entered into
in the most solemn manner, is not binding.

EDITOR RECORD As there is some excite
ment with respect to turning water into the
pond below town by the agent of the Feather
river and Ophir Water Ditch Company which
pond is supposed by many to have caused or
aggravated the sickness of last year, wish to
say that have had q conversation with Mr..
explains by saying that it is not the intention
of the Company to run the water into the said
pond, but that it was necessity at the present
time to do so, in order to put 10 some boxes
below the point at which the water was let of
into the pond. He further says that the agree
ment entered into BY the citizens of Oroville
aud Mr.. Cunningham, TO wit that the Com
pany propose to confne their own water within
their own bitches, will be adhered to- He
also says that as soon as the Spring fTeshets
are past the Company will coufne the water
near Orovlle in their own ditches aud the
surplus, if any be run off to the Feather river.
Will not now enlarge on the matter to any
extent. II the Company will confne their own
water in their own bitches, as agreed upon, the
citizens of Orovie will be satisfied, and, if this
is not done, they will be dissatisfied aud find iu
some way remedy for the evil. That is the
long aud the short of the matter Meantime,
think all parties should keep cool and not he
too hasty in regard to the matter OGe thing
is certain, however: the premises agreed npoo
must be kept or in due time, there will be
trouble for somebody. j. u.

stant, this gentleman was shot, and instantly
killed, at Virginia Cry. Nevada, in the saloon
of Doyle K Goodman, by J. f. Doyle, one of
the proprietors. 1t appears that Metcalf was
considerably under the Influence OF liquor and
commenced abusing Doyle without any cause
whatever. Metcalf received two balls from a
SIX shooter in the breast, either Of which would
have proved fatal, and but few inches apart.
Doyle was admitted 10 bail in the sum Of $40
600, TO wait the action Of the Grand Jury. A.

On the Pacific coast there are still vast
numbers Of men who hoard gold coin or
dust, in sums varying from fifty dollars to
thousands. In this way very large amount
of means lies absolutely idle from year to
year. Hidden away, buried in the earth, or
locked up with care-it is a constant object
Of anxiety to it's owners, and source ol
temptation to lswless men. The owners
expect to visit the Eastern States at some
future time-or they wait only to increase
their store before changing their social OF
business relations; and they are saving their
funds for that occasion. In the meantime
their gold lies nactive-producng nothing
but uneasiness and anxiety-because they
have no ready and safe means Of investment
upon sureties that may be relied upon no,
TO fail them.
