THE CASH TRIAL.


Wm. NJ. Shannon in n duel last Sum
MGR. This week, we are able to pub
lish the progress and result Of the
trial.
Col Spain and Gen. Prince, the
counsel for Col. Cash, offered no evi-
dence whatever for the prisoner III
order, as we understand, that they
might have the reply in debate. The
evidence for the State was conclusive
and proved murder of the most az
Gravatcd nature. The Uncontradic-
ted testimony Of Witnesses showed
the most inhuman, brutal aud uu-
natural conduct on the part Of Col.
Cash and his son. 1t was brought
out that Col. Cash, while the pre-
raratioMs were going Oh on the field
in utter violation OF Wilson's = Code
used The following revolving cx-
prcssioms:
"Gcnh'encn, 1oak at, your Pc Nce
mar, Iy. God. ,Eorh. nc !jIhrmIic.'
"l'rc got him tired; lie has to ,fyt."
"LIg chance to ,cri'c q tNrr o.
'co can make Il doy Jiyht.' His son
w. B. Cash also said to his father,
XII tic damned yroy-hcn'cl scoun-
drcl," to which Col Cash answered
"IW 10 II; hc c;yni escape me- enc shO,
,cW d, H."
II such is the Go lie oT honor,' the
McDuflics aud the REo:;s, and the
Haynes ought certainly to hang their
heads in everlasting shame, and the
failure Of any champion Of the Code
TO disavow and protest against such
language burics the whole iustitu-
tion in 4 grave of racrited infamy.
The argnme' & on both sides Of
the case were powerful. That OF
Col. Spain was able and Ingenious.
hut the speech OF Attorney General
Ioumans was the crowning effort OF
his life He did his duty, fearless of
consequences and the State owes linn
IL debt Of gratitude. Cndrr the
power Of his eloQucucc the stony
heart Of Cash himself, as he after
wards contcssc |, was almost pcrsuad-
ed.
The charge too Of Judge PRESLEY
was equally grand. He said, What
was hoYnr? Was it one of those
weak sicltlv flowers that the foui
breath Of slandrr could wlhcr:
What was it, that it was not firm
enough in its purity 10 withstand
defamation? This honor to be re-
tain@d only by the duel, was as falls
as tears Of sand And in cnncl :
sion he said, "Solcmnly before Go,
aud lnau charge the jury that this
offence With which the prisoner i.
charged is murder, and il is nothing
else The jury, attc:. spending The
night in their room, failei 10 agree

THE DEFEAT OF THE DEBRIS REPEAL
BILL,

The Assembly has refused a first reading
to the bill to repeal the Drainage Act, by
a vote of SO to sc, and the motion to re-
consider this vote was yesterday tabled by
a vote of 40 to S5. The long struggle
over this measure is thus brought to an end,
and the persistent efforts of the repealers
to deprive the Sacramento valley of all
protection against the debris are frus-
trated. The RECORD UNION congratulates
the people of Northern California on this
victory for their interests. The contest
has been a fierce and determined one,
and the imperiled interests have been as
sailed, not only by ignorant prejudice, but
by all that malice could invent in the way
of Misrepresentation. Even in the closing
debate in the Assembly the statements of
the anti debris members were chiefly re.
markable for their stubborn defiance of
reason and their reckless and wholly un.
justi6able imputation of incompetence
and dishonesty to the officers response
bic for carrying out the provisions of the
Drainage Act. Never in fact has great
question been treated in narrower way by
the opponents of remedial legislation. Be
it remembered that they have from the
very first failed to substantiate single one
of their averments against the bill They
tried to show that it had been improperly
administered. They failed in that. They
tried to prove that it involved onerous tax

atior. They failed in that They tried to
prJve that the salvation of the Sacramento
valley was no concern of the State. They
failed in that. They tried to prove that
Congress could be induced to undertake
the work. They failed in that. They tried
to prove that the engineering plans adopted
were ineffective. They failed in that. Yet
notwithstanding these repeated and unin-
termitted failures they have had the auda-
city and the dishonesty to repeat their ex-
ploded charges up to the last moment, and
hare shown in their final rout how utterly
hopeless it was ever to expect rational er
candid treatment of SO momentous SUBJ
ject, from such men.
We hardly know whether to be ashamed
or amused when we see members who
have no acquaintance with science gravely
rising in their places and declaring their
opinions upon complex engineering ques-
lions in the most dogmatic way. They
know nothing about the subject, and they
refuse to be instructed. but yet they think
that their ignorance and blind prejudice
deserve to be put on record as the express
sions of reasoning beings. 1t is extremely
notifying to observe the general inability
to distinguish between weightY and worth
less opinions which is so prevalent in mat.
tiers of this kind. We have even heard
members admit that they knew nothing
about the question, and yet in the same
breath they have declared their readiness
to take issue with the most careful con-
clusions of science. How can it be posi-
bic to determine questions upon their
merits, when members thus refuse to in
form themselves as to the facts of the
case?
The debris repeal bill has been beaten,
however, and that is sufficient cause for
thankfulness. The Sacramento valley is
not left without the means of protection,
and when the remedies already proposed
are applied to the lower course of the
river, as they will be during the next two
years, we have confidence that the bene-
fetal results will be so apparent as to dis
sipate the prejudice and misrepresentation
which have grown up around this question
in some parts Of the State. We do not be-
lieve that any adverse public opinion would
ever have been formed in this connec-
ton had the facts of the case been fully
and fairly laid before the people, for we do
not believe that there exists in California
any considerable sentiment in favor OF
abandoning the Sacramento valley to de-
struction rather than pay tax of one
twentieth of one per cent. for its protec.
ton.

THE REVENUE BILL.

The revenue bill has passed the Legisla-
ture in both branches, and is in the hands
of the Governor. This bill represents an
endeavor to recognize the erroneous char
acter of the fiscal theories which found ex-
preston in the new Constitution, in regard
to the taxation of personal property.
Actual experience has convinced the people
that to tax representatives of property as
well as tangible things is to impose double
taxation, and that double taxation is in
furious as well as iniquitous. 1t has been
discovered that the existing law discrimi-
mates against the thrifty poor as well as
against the thrifty rich !; that the savings
deposits of the workingman, as well as the
shares of the capitalist, are doubly taxed
under its iniquitous provisions. And since
it Is now generally recognized that the laws
which make certain classes of property pay
twice are against public policy and calcu-
lated to depopulate the State, there has
arisen an almost universal condemnation of
these provisions. The new revenue law was
drawn to meet this expression of public
sentiment, and to prevent the i'll conse,
quences which the revenue law of the last
session was producing 1t has been OBJ
jected to only by few ,uncandid or COM
munistic adherents of the new Constitu.
tion, aud it is concurred in heartily by the
great mass of the people. If, as the COM
nunists have urged, the bill is unconstitu-
tional, the Courts can be got to pronounce
it So But it is certain that the people
have demanded the change, and that they
will at the earliest practicable moment
settle this question by erasing from the or.
ganie law the provisions which are cited as
commanding themonstrous wrong of double
taxation.

tbs STATE DETECTIVE LAW.

This is bill which ought to be passed..
The objects are unquestionably such as leg
islators can indorse with clear conscience.
It is certain that highway robberies have
become so numerous and frequent in sew.
eral of the mountain counties that it has
been found necessary to take off the stage
lines from many routes. The effect of this
is to subject considerable populations to
great injury and inconvenience, and since
it is undoubtedly the duty of the State to
afford adequate protection to all its citi-
zens, and since facts show that such pro.
lection has not been afforded in the cases
referred to, refusal to pass this bill can
only be regarded as refusal on the part of
the State to perform its part in the contract
between itself and the tax payers. Ger
tainly if it will not protect the people of
the mountain counties it can have no right
to tax them, and should they refuse to pay
State taxes on this plea it is difficult TO see
what the State could do about it. The bill
ought to become law. and we hope that
it will be put through.
