| try of paramount Importance our people, and if
the efforts of the auti-rnneIs in portion of few
valley counties successful QUE greatest industry
will be closed, county depopul4ted, and large
portion OF our hard earned wea tn and the comfort
of people will vanish

of our mining industry, in the shape of lourishjng
cities and villages, as well as to our numerous
scaool-houses and comfortable homes, which are
scattered broadcast over our brokea and rough ter
utory, and we challenge the State to exhibit more
indus trous and law abiding people than IS found in
| the mi1ing countiss Of this State.
! ReSoirel, Tnat our people feel that mining in any
shape Is iaWIll INDUSTRY, ana we ueDfecaLe IN all
ways as unworthy the acts and efforts cf the Anti
Debris Association to prevent the Secretary of War
| from showing the appropriation of Congress to be
applied towards the ameliora.iOG of the injuries
which industry may have caused to limited
number Of cidzsns of the Slate ia the valley below
| US.
| Resolred That an industry which has turned into
| the channels OF commerce the sum Of twelve hun
dred millions of gold, and which furnish still
larger sum- is certainly worthy of protection by
! Government, which has in all ways prohted so
largely by it, and which has as yet never contributed
| one dollar to its aid and protection.
ResoBged. That We consider it the duty Of the Sec
retary of War TO allow the appropriation made by
Congress TO be speedily appropriated to the objects
| for which it Set aside, and that we thank the
| generous on tbs Yuba for their frank offer
| to the Government to furnish $l25,000 If the Gov
| ernmeut will furnish equal amount, to be ex-
| pended by the War Department on the Yuba river
| in constructing dams for impOunding the debris,
