Further Views Regarding Judge Saw
yer's Decision.

STOCKTON, January Sth.-Pubc sentiment in this
section Is almost unanimous in approval of Judge
Sswyers decision in the celebrated debris case The
decision was not generally known yesterday, and
not until to-day was the matter discussed to any
great extent. Some think that the decision hardly
goes far enough and that an opening Is left for mis-
chief to be perpetuated by exempting from the in
junction those miners who can conne and take care
OF their debris. The dec sion has caused no excite
ment whatever in this community, but has been re-
celEed with quiet, yet Cordial approval.
CoLUsA, January Sth.-The decision of Judge Saw
yer IN the debris case was received here with the
greatest satisfaction. One hundred guns are bel g
fired

no interest IN this county. All the people here
want is the right to divert for irrigation pur
poses.
SONORA, January Sth.-The feeling prevail here
that the decision in the debris case will work an in
justice to the miners and mining interests of the
State Inc miners having purchased their claims
IN good faith, the General Government should pro-
vide some means by which they can work their
claims, they having equal rights with the farmers.

dependency amorg the miners and business men,
as they all feel that matters will eventually come
=
and farmers alike will in the future be pro-
tected.
CAMPToNvILLE, January Sth.-Judge Sawyer's de-
cison had TO some extent been anticipated by the
miners, yet 1t has very depressing effect all
kinds OF business here.

dignant. All property is ruined here We feel that
the General Government should settle.
PLAcERvMLE, January 6th.-Yery little expression
OF opinion has been called forth by the decision in
the debri; case of the North Bloomfield Mining
Company. Tie general tenor is that as there IS
comparatively little Of that class of mining done in
this county, the debris can be taken care Of 1t
IS considered to he a heavy blow on our sister min.
ing counties Of Placer and Nevada.
CHICO, January Sth. - The decision of Judge
Sawyer is received with satisfaction by the people IN
this section. The farmers here although not suf
ferers from mining debris themselves have a strong
sympathy with those who have especially our neigh

in the debris does not materially affect the min
ing interests OF this county, as there are no hy-
drauIic mines OF sufficient magnitude to attract at
tentiJn by their taiiings.

petua injunction in the debris case does not create
as much comment or feeling as ia counties south OF

will help the county by resurrectng the steamboat
traffic which IS now prevented on account Of the
distractions in the river.
AUBURN, January Sth.-As a matter Of course. the
decision Of Judges Sawyer and Deadly is not very
acceptable to the residents of Placer, Gold Run
Dutch Flat and vicinity they being more seriously al
fected than other portions OF the county On the For
est Hill divide there is but a small amount Of nv
ing No general demonstration was made here
Evidently We must grin and bear il, although il will
add 70 the financial depression hereabouts.
IoNE, January sth.-The first news OF the decision
Of Judge Sawyer in the debris question was received
here this afternoon. While this community is not
directly affected by the decision vet it is indirectly
On the spur OF the moment, sympathy with the de-
cision IS largely governed by individual interests
The farmers approve emphatically while the miners
and those who sympalhize with them are equally
emphatic in ther dsapprOyal. In short it is looked
upon By the dispassiOnate Of those nterneciue
