Meeting of the Miners Executive Commit
tee.

At meeting of the Executive Committee ap-
pointed at the Miners Meeting held in Shasta on
the 26 day of April 1870, it WAS resolved, in con-
sequence of MISUNDERSTANDING existing as to the
Intentions of said Cohmittee in regard TO contest
ing the entry OF lands covered by the general miner
al ailavi;s ole in the L. s Land Office in Shasta
that they woalh make the fcliowing announcement:
Weregard all the lands covered by said afidavits
mineral lands. and that by defending them as
such We preserve them frsm grlsping monopoly,
and guard the interest of the people.
Where parties have settled upon any OF said
lands, and by cultivation and improvements have
made them valuable for agricultural than for
mining purposes. it is not, and never has been ur
intention to contest the entry of the Same, provi
ded they claim than the smallest legal sub
division which will cover the cultivated aud i'm
proved land. and provided also that the party
seeking to enter said land, any other rarty, has
not worked any part of said land for mining pur
poses since filing upon it.
When We have good reason to believe that
party is seeking to enter land as agricultural for
the purpose of working the same as mineral Ian d.
or selling to others for mining purposes, after
having secured title, we will contest the same
When party seeks to pre-empt or enter as ag-
ricultura any of said lands, never having cutiva-
ted and improved them for agricultural purposes,
we will contest such application.
Or, in other words we would say that those who
comply in good faith with the spirit and intention
OF the laws in relation to the entry of Lands and
steer clear of false preences, need have fear OF
the miners. Be honest and we may be happy vet.

He thinks they ought to wait patiently

more obnoxious features in recent Congress

strongly anything like a revival of armed
resistance. There was one part of his At
lanta speech which was not reported.
Before saying he did not accept the situa-
ton, Mr.. Davis asked any Northern report
ers who might be present to tax partlcu-
lar notice of his words, and he then said he
did not desire to be understood as advising

A Mr.. Speer has raised breeze among
the business men of Portland, Maine, by
some experiments which he has recently
made in the use of compressed air as mo-
tive power. He claims that air can be corr
pressed in reservoir to an extent double
the power of the engine that congresses,
and has invented governor which is said
to control the pressure as completely as the
governor of a steam engine. He affirms that
pipes can be extended to an almost indefi-
mite length, as by simple invention he has
overcome the obstacle of friction which pre-
vious experimenters have found so difficult
to deal with. Mr.. Speer says the tidal force
at a bridge leading out of Portland is sutfi-
Gent to furnish compressed air for all the
machinery in the city. Whatever may be
the merits of Mr.. Speer's inventions, there
can be no doubt that there are possibilities
of more important results from the use of
compressed air than the public generally
anticipate.
