LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

Expressing THEIR SENTDIENTs.-There
was being circulated yesterday the follow
ing document for the signatures of those
who did work for the State or have claims
under the Drainage Act and have not re-
ceived their money. 1t doubtless will be
signed by all who have such claims, and
then brought to the attention of the legis-
lators and the public. Already the names
appended are sufficiently numerous and of
such responsibility as to command respect
" In view of the position some persons are
trying to place the claimants under the
Drainage Act of 1880, we, the undersigned
claimants, address you as above Assuming
TO speak for all of said claimants, we know,
as we'll as any one can know, that we are
barred from seeking a remedy at law, but
we know that we have the right to humbly
ask equity and justice from the power that
wronged us, to wit the State of California
and when we find ourselves dramatically
caricatured and classed by some of your
honorable body as pursuing the State te-i
rob it. we are indignant, and stand ready to
defend our equitable and Just claims against
the State without fear or favor from any
man, be he high or low. We hear take the
occasion 10 assert that the claimants have
not sold their claims to exceed the sum of
$4,000, and we do not believe to exceed
$4,000, since the commencement of the
suit which declared the Act void at law
We assert that the banks that invested in
them did so in good faith, at 81, % and 90
cents on the dollar. We assert that the
owners of said claims who find themselves
denounced as aforesaid. are all residents
and taxpayers of this State and have been
for the past twenty or thirty years, and we
squarely resent such treatment of our petit
ton for relief"
