LETTER FROM, LOS NiETOS.

:. .Blowing,appears to be all the rage
here at present. Yesterday was a very
disagreeable day, on account of a ter
rible blow from the direction Of Ana
helm. The sky was clOuded with dust
and sand. Some call it a Santa Anna.
If it is named in honor,of the hero Of
Mexico, we would gladly be spared the
visits of any more of his namesakes.
Jack Frost has paid his compliments
to some portions of our valley, andput
in a general appearance among melon
Iyiiies andRrseh tomatoes. -.
, We visited the city of Nietos to-day.
Several buildings are in the course of
construction. The busy hum of the
saw and hammer are heard in every
direction. An enterprising liveryman
of Gallatin, Tommy CanOvan, has an
swered our call and bought a lot, and
!, wHtiNAiediately erect livery and
. feed Stable, Where friends visiting us
can be accommodated with nice turn
out. M
Mr.. Barnett, of the college, goes into
,blaeksRlithing. Mr.. Graham is build
ing bOarding-hOuse.
While the good PEOPLE of Compton,
San Gabriel and Los Angeles are hold
ing conventions to secure legislation
to increase the supply of water for ir-
rigation, the people 0f, New River are
spending their me aHdmoneyin bOl-
ing artesian- wells, with great success.
& FIVE 6f SIX Wefis have been completed
i'm the last few months, all getting
good flow of water.
We have read with some care the
Iiroceedings of the Irrigation Conyen-
ton held in the city On the 25th inst,
and must admit that we have not been
able to see the pointsunless it be to take
=. from those.s who h:tye,A and give to
! those that have not, or else set up an
other system of subsidy to tax one pOr-
tion of the State for the benefit OF. an
:. sother. What do the people of Siski-
you care about the irrigation Of Los
Angeles? Suppose wecreate an trfiga-
ton Bureau for the State with batch
of useless officers to be paid out of the
soil of the irrigated districts, (fOr we
could not in justice tax any other,
for there is no other benefitted.) Then
Aasye S&R4lds find ourselves so heavily
taxed for wates, that we could not af-
Il fArd to pay for it, for the Bureau
must be, self-sustaining or, else We
must have State appropriation to sus-
tain it; and that would be taking
the money of nOnipterested counties.
While there is great opposition to pri-
yate companies controlling the waters
of, thiscounty for irrigating purposes,
|. : l,av,s i eIevSsth the water can be more
cheaply utilized, controlled, and sold to
the farmers, guarded by wise and
equitable legislation than by the
course, proposed by the Convention.
The present system OF each district
.,eontroling Its own water, with some
<witf Some amendments to the present
law, we are sure, is far preferable.

TRENTON, Feb. 2-Midnight.
The expected railroad fight did not come OFF to-
night. Neither Assembly bill No. nor Senate bill
No. 13S came up Tor action In either house. 1t is
stated on good authority that they are not signed,
and that Mr.. Taylor, President of the Senate. re-
fuses to sign the latter bill ON the ground that it
was illegally before the Senate. inasmuch as the
notice required by law had not been gwen The
great contest cannot be STAYED Off much longer.
1t Is expected that either both bills will be taken
up tomorrow.
Mr.. McPherson of Hudson, introduced new
bill in the Senate to authorize and regulate the
formation OF railroad corporations. The bill par.
takes OF the character OF general railroad law,
and is reported to be set-Or against Assembly
bill No. S. 1t provides that no less than fifteen
persons shall be Incorporated to construct rail-
road, with capital OF $4,000 each and that the
road shall not be bonded until the sum OF $4,000
be paid in cash. The main features OF the bill are
that any company rich enough can build railroad
in the State, and the more capital the better
chance for companies with large means. The
minor features are the same as in ordinary rail-
road bills. Mr.. Mcpherson made short speech In
introducing ii. The President (Mr. TaylOr), 1t Is
said, strongly favOrs this bill The galleries OF the
Senate were well filled in anticipation of a repeti-
ton OF the scenes OF last Monday night in the As
sembly Chamber.
Mr.. Reardon's bill relative to the exemption of
railroad property from taxation in Jersey City was
made the special order for tomorrow afternoon
conference In regard to it was held tonight
and 1t received the endorsement OF many prom
