sion had passed, when he went to the
Controllers Office to draw some money.
On learning what had been done, he
instantly expressed the opinion that the
Controllers construction of the law was
erroneous, and he declared his intention to
draw no more than the $40 per diem given
him by the Constitution. The Controller on
his part held that the warrants, once IS
sued, could not be cancelled until the
Board of Examiners had passed upon them,
but Speaker Parks drew no more than $40
per diem, and has not and will not draw
more. 1t thus appears that the whole
matter grew out of faulty Interpretation
OF the law on the part Of the State Con-
troller, and that Mr. Parks has acted
throughout with punetilious honesty, alb.
solutely refusing to take the extra salary
which was almost forced upon him, and
steadily holding to the view that he was
not entitled to it. There is, we trust, no
other journal in the State than the Ctron.
icle which would have made SO outrage
ously false and malicious charge against
public officer, but that paper has no char
acter to lose, and therefore it can afford to
do many things which respectable journals
would shrink from.

THAT coNcURRENr RESOLUTION.


One of the committees which are Just
now making themselves so numerous yes.
terday adopted and transmitted to the
Legislature a Concurrent Resolution re-
curing the Attorney General to commence
suit forthwith against the hydraulic min
ers. The true inwardness Of this resolu-
ton appears to reside in its concluding
proviso, which is as follows "And it is
further resolved, that the Attorney
General shall be at liberty to employ
''such additional counsel as he may deem
necessary to assist him in promptly COM
"plying with this resolution" This opens
the door to the employment of attorneys
who may have sought to identify them
selves in demagogic way with the popu-
lar movement against the hydraulic min
ers, and considering the source of the res
olutioa, and the circumstances under which
it was produced. it may appear to be a
fresh illustration of the familiar obserya-
ton that there are some people who will
never lose anything through difhdence in
soliciting it, even when the nature of their
aim is apparent to the meanest capacity.
In fact all that has been said as to the
selfish objects of certain recent movements
is confirmed and established by this sig.
nificant proviso.

SENATOR HILL ONCE MORE.

Senator Hill has attempted to answer
our article of yesterday. He insists that
the vote on Senate Bill No. 347 was test
vote. His argument in support of this
proposition is singular one. He admits
hat our Characterization of the interest OF
the bill was accurate, and that all it pro.
vides for is the trial of the issue between
the farmers and the miners. But he says
Now, if the farmers be permitted to go
into Court and establish that proposition
THAT the miners must take care of their
{" tailings), the hydraulic miners will have
TO take care of their own tailings, or stop
g mining. Senate Bill 347 will permit the
80 farmers to do this ; and it is conceded
that the miners cannot keep back or i'm
pound in the mountains the vast quanti-
"'ty of debris turned loose by them every
year, therefore the passage of Senate Bill
S47 must necessarily put stop to
g hydraulic mining" This is a truly re-
markable proposition. A bill has been
introduced to allow the farmers to test the
issue In the Courts therefore the Courts
will decide in favor of the farmers That
is the gist of Senator Hills logic, and it is
really quite phenomenal argument. It
evidently has not occurred to the Senator
that to allow suits to be brought is one
thing, but that to secure the success of
these suits is quite another thing. This,
however, is the fact, and because it is the
fact vote upon Senate Bill No. S47 is not
vote upon the proposition to stop n.y.
draulic mining. We are sorry that Senator
Hill does not perceive the very broad dis
tinctions involved, but as the public cannot
fail to recognize them this is perhaps of
secondary Importance. As a specimen of
intellectual foundering." however, Sem
ator Hills argument certainly deserves
premium.

BRAzgN MISREPRESENTATION.
Nevada Transcript, February 2oth.I

Nevada Transcript, February 20thl
The Bee represents Mr.. Cadwalader as
making the following statements at the
anti-debris meeting held in Sacramento
Thursday evening
f0ut of population of q 900 in the
county of Nevada, there are $4,000 who
have no interest in the hydraulic mines,
hence the injury to individuals by stopping
these mines is nothing, or next to nothing
There is no hydraulic mining in the town
ship of Nevada or the township of Grass
Valley, and the people of Nevada and
Placer counties, who are not in the bust
ness, look upon this class of mining with
displeasure. These mines are owned by
corporations composed of foreigners who
have no interest in this State and very lit.
tie in the United States, besides taking the
gold from our hills and leaving destruction
behind. Their patronage to merchants is
scarcely worth anything"
1t is with mass of just such untruthful
testimony as the above that the min
ers have had to contend ever since the op-
position to their interests began. Every
statement embodied in the paragraph
quoted is false as false can be. Every citi-
zen in Nevada county who possesses COM
mon intelligence trembles at the thought of
the vast injury that will be wrought to all
industrial and commercial pursuits carried
on here should the large revenue annually
derived from hydraulic mining be suddenly
cut off We do not believe there is man
living in this part of the State who does
not share in this feeling Some of the
most profitable mines in Nevada township
are of the hydraulic kind and the only
reason that there are no large ones in
Grass Valley township is because ma
ture appeared to have had a spite against
that particular locality in this respect, and
made the main dead-river channels course
all around it, but keep just outside its
boundaries. We challenge Mr.. Cadwalader
to point out single reputable citizen in
Nevada county who ''looks upon this class
of mining with displeasure. There is but
one hydraulic niue in Nevada county
owned by foreign corporation, and the
foreigners who own it have to send thou
sands of dollars here every year to pay for
the improvements and developments con-
stantly being made in connection with their
With two or three exceptions,
the hydraulic mines are all owned by resi-
dents of Nevada county. Those excep-
tional mines are owned in San Francisco.
Every town in the county located above
Nevada City excepting Truckee and Bocal
owes not only its prosperity, but its exist
enee, to the successful continuance OF by,
irsulic mining.

SPEAKER PARKS AND THE CHRONICLE

Speaker Parks yesterday rose to ques-
ton of privilege, and refuted the charge
brought against him by the San Francisco
Chronicle of having drawn two salaries
one of $40 per diem, as Speaker, and
another of IS per diem, as member of
the Assembly. Had the correspondent of
the Chronicle been DESTROYS of stating the
truth, he could very easily have ascer-
tanned that the charge was false one, but
he probably knew that the journal he
served preferred slanderous and injurious
falsehoods to the truth at all times, and SO
he dispatched this malicious lie on it's
travels. The facts, as explained by
Speaker Parks, and as verified by several
members of the Assembly, are as follows:
The Controller conceived the peculiar idea
that the Constitution should be SO con.
strued as to give the Speaker SIS per diem,
and he proceeded to draw two warrants, one
for $40 per diem, and one for S. per diem.
The Speaker knew nothing of this peculiar
construction until three weeks of the ses.

Senate.

WASHINGTON, February 2lst.-Maxey, from the
Committee on Postoffices, reported fayorably with
amendments the House post route bill, and it was
passed.
The conference report on the army appropriation
bill was read and adopted.
After the morning hour the legislation appropria-
ton bill was taken up.
Davis stated that the amount estimated for 1882
was S17,902,607. AS it was reported to the Senate
it was S17 900. Excess over last year. $500 OGO
due chiefly to the increase in the pension force
The Commissioner believed the internal revenue re
ceipts would exceed those of the preceding year
nearly $50, 100000. The committee set the figures
at 81, 600 600.
In Committee OF the Whole the reading of the
bill began, and the amendments to the committee
amendment increasing the force Of the Pension
Bureau largely for the sake of clearing up the pen
sion claims as soon possible, caused long dis.

Plumb held that it was the only thing necessary

SOME SAN FRANCISCO JOURNALISM.

A suit recently on trial in San Francisco
has brought out some very discreditable
disclosures regarding the business methods
OF two metropolitan newspapers. In o.
tober last a six-days' go-as-you-please "
race between men and horses was held at
the Mechanics Fair Pavilion. Some of
the competitors, dissatisfied with the dis
tribution of the gate money, sued the
managers for an accounting. Testimony
was taken before Court Commissioner,
and one of the managers stated that he
had paid the Chronicle 1884 for writing up
the entertainment, exclusive of regular
advertising. The contract between the
paper and the managers had been that the
former was to write up the exhibition,
and that the latter were to pay $50 a day
for this service. similar arrangement,
it was alleged, had been made with the
Post. This is stripping off the DISCUSSES
of venal journalism with vengeance.
The Chronicle no doubt only adhered to
It's established custom In making this
charge for writing up" the entertain
ment referred to, and it may be judged
from this exposure what the statements of
such journal on any public affair in which
there can be apecuniary interest, are likely
to be worth. A newspaper which does this
kind of thing viii evidently enter into
corrupt contract with any one to puff any
swindling scheme, and thus to deceive and
rob the public. It's impossible to put any
confidence in the statements of journals
whose local or editorial columns are at the
disposal of the highest bidder, and which
are ready to puff any undertaking provided
they are paid for the dirty work. And from
one such example the whole policy Of
journal may be OWNED. The Chronicle,
no doubt, made its contract with Lawton
and Mcneil just as it was in the habit of
doing with all who required its purchas.
able approval. It is not to be supposed
that this is solitary case in its experience.
1t Is scarcely necessary to say that no re-
spectacle journal is ever guilty of such
venality as this. The advertising columns
of all newspapers are properly open to who
ever will pay for their use, but its opinions,
its narratives OF local events, its editorial
columns, are its own. Journals that open
all their columns to purchase are, more
over, certain eventually to lose all influence
and all public respect The people may
be deceived for a time by venal ex-
pressions, but sooner or later they dis
cover the true character of the paper that
prostitutes its columns, and then it sinks
to its natural level, and becomes a mere
common drab.
