EDS. REcoRD-UNIoy Much rs desire 10
see the growth and prosperity of every sec
ton of our State benefited by system of
State irrigation, the question of the consti-
tutional power of this State to appropriate
| the waters or our rivers and streams for
any sueh purpose, IN my opinion, con-
lilcts with the assumed power of Congress
over this question. Congress has made
very large appropriation of the waters of
our rivers and mountain streams by grant
ing the right OF way across the public land
to corporations, and also to private indiyid-
| uals to construct canals and bitches. and
take the water from many of our streams
for mining purposes. In my opinion the
Act of Congress admitting California into
| the Union forbids the State from exercis-
ing any control over the navigable waters
OF this State. Neither the State nor its citi-
zens have any rightto drain the water from
our naVlgaoie rivers SO as TO impair free
navigation, The principle of riparian rights
IS not founded exclusively on the common
law OF England, but is co-eXistent with the
earliest history of the human race. Ripa-
rian rights were recognized by the patriarchs
in Palestine. They were also RECOGNIZED
in Egypt and by the republics of Greece
and Rome. believe, Mr.. Editor, that the
recognition OF riparian rights was q civil
necessity 10 secure the safety of human life
| and private property. The legal question
decided by the recent decision of the SUI
preme Court was, whether the owners of n
canal, constructed exclusively for irrigatino
the lands through which the stream did
! not flow, could deprive the owners. of land
adjacent to the streams of their riparian
| rights / think the decision of the Court
was equitable, and | also believe ii would
| be sustained by the Supreme Court of the
| United States. In regard to canals or
| bitches constructed Tor mining purposes.
there is no principal or rule of law that
would conflict with the use of the water
| for irrigation or for any other purpose. |
| would say that in this county the wafer from
our mining canals and bitches is used by
the owners of land over which they pass, in
large quantities for irrigating gardens fruit
| orchards and vineyards, and also for alfalfa
! fields, and also for similar purposes over
| lands which they do not pass Our canal and
| ditch owners allow the use of the water for
| irrigation. 1t would give me great pleasure
if some system could be devised by which
our citizens in the valleys could have the
| benefit OF the surplus water in our rivers
and mountain streams. Our citizens in the
foothills would be glad if the water could
| be made beneficial to our fellow citizens in
The fertile valleys of our State.

WHITE CooKs.-Another word will not
be inappropriate regarding the white cooks
that are being employed in and about the
camps, mills and hotels in this section
White cooks must and viii do the work
that has been done by the leperous China
men, but irresponsible cooks-men who
represent themselves as capable, competent
men and cannot fill the bill-should be
ostracized and not recognized by the work
ingmen nor given employment. Good
white cooks are wanted all over, are
needed. and viii be paid fair wages, but
they should do their duty faithfully; they
should so work as to convince the en-
ployer that white labor is the cheapest in
the end. The, as you may say universal,
trouble that employers OF white cooks are
having is doing more 10 injare the anti
Chinese cause than any other thing. A
white man who accepts such position
and betrays the confidence reposed in him,
should be driven from the country. Let
every white man who is taking the place of
the expelled Chinese do his duty, and do

Suicide of a Yolo County supervisor

The Woodland Democrat of yesterday
published an extra, giving the following
account of the suicide of an esteemed
resident and official of Yolo county: 1--WE
received the painful intelligence this morn
ing by telephone that George Sharpnack.
one of the Supervisors Of Yolo county.
committed suicide by shooting himself
through the head between and o'clock
this morning, and was found dead, back of
lis own barn, soon after o'clock by John
4. feathers, who heard pistol shot as he
was passing, and FASTENED to the spot
Mr.. feathers is not certain whether he saw
him fall or not, but found him lying dead
on the ground when he came up to the
body. Frank Lippincott states that he
conversed with the deceased about :
O'Clock, and did not notice anything I'M
usual il bis manner and no cause is
known for his taking his life. Deceased
was about 80 years of age. He was elected
Supervisor for the Knights Landing Dis
trict on the Republican ticket in Novem-
Der, 1881. His health was very poor all
through the past winter. but of late he
seemed to have recovered at least he has
attended the last two meetings of the
Board. Deceased was q man highly re-
spected throughout the county, and viii be
greatly missed as one of its most prominent
citizens, and his death will be iamented By
ALL
From q gentleman who visited the
scene Of the suicide this morning we gain
the following additional facts Deceased
seemed to be in his usual good spirits this
morning. and, in company with his wife,
walked cut TO the barn. Mrs Sharpnack
devoted her attention there to the care of
poultry, and in about ten minutes was sur
prised to see Mr.. Sharpnack lying by the
side OF the bay-stack. She went TO him
and observed blood oozing from the side of
his head. She had not heard the report of
any firearms. A pistol was laying by him
which easily explained the cause of death.
The pistol was one the boys had bor-
rowed from a neighbor and used it for
practicing. Mrs Sharpnack is of the opin-
ion that he either had the pistol concealed
on his person when walking with her, or
had previously hidden it at the straw
stack; in either event, it is evident that
the killing was intentional in fact de-
liberate case of suicide. No one seems to
be able to give any definite cause for the
rash act. But it is well-known that deceased
has been greatly worried, especially since
his recent illness, over an undue amount of
business which devolved upon him. Be-
sides his own farming and domestic inter
ests, he was an industrious member of the
Board of Supervisors, and also had the
management of an estate which required
much care and attention"

IT is not to be all smooth sailing for our
friends the irrigationists. An exceedingly
long communication in the Bulletin boldly
assails the met hods they are charged with
having adopted in securing the influence
of the press and in managing the late Con-
vention at San Francisco. There is I'M
questionably to be a lively fight over this
subject in the next Legislature, and the
hosts marshaling on either side are indi-
cative of hot conteet-the anti-riparian-
lists appearing, however, to have consider
ably taken the lead in forming and mold
ing the public mind.

THERE is going up complaint that sew
eral of the steam laundries established to
supersede the Chinese laundries have
failed. The people grumble because the
white laundryman charges more than the
Chinese laundrymen. How unreasonable
The whole anti-Chinese crusade proceeds
on the doctrine that the Chinaman lives
so cheaply that the white worker can only
compete with him by adopting like I'M
American manner of living. Do people
expect american civilization upon the
plane of the Chinese wage? OF course
they ought to pay the white laundry more
than the Chinese, because the former is
more valuable to society.

THE LOSSES.

The Antisells estimate their loss at ovei
$500, 000 and they were insured for $lG0, 000
Advantage had been taken of low freight
rates to import large stock OF material,
such as wire etc, from Germany, and each
story was well stored with goods, including
about one hundred pianos. They imported
such material as was necessary, but their
pianos were all manufactured in San Fran
cisco. They employed sixty worllmen in
and about their business. One of the broth
ers is at the Geyser Springs, being treated
for rheumatism. They began business on
Washington street, San Francisco, twenty
years ago, and by their energy and close
attention succeeded in building up a flour
ishing trade.
Most of the goods in the store of VIM. ].
Heney e Co. were covered with tarpaulins
! by the Fire Patrol at an early stage of the
| fire, but considerable water was thrown in
through the windows, especially on the
lower floor. Smoke also penetrated all the
! floors. 1t is impossible TO estimate the
amount of their damage at present, but
| their insurance will cover the loss.
Antisell had an insurance Of $S0,000 on
his store until the fire occurred in the Ban
croft building. after which he increased the
amount to 100000.

would be monstrous doctrine to affirm

SrrARr NJ. TAYLOR, in his speech
Tuesday night on bossism, said that it re-
quires but three things to overcome boss
rule" pluck, patience and perseverance"
All, yes; but those three things comprise
about all the political backbone it is posi-
BILE to have, and which only the few do
possess. It is easy enough tosay "bep lucky,
patient and persevering," but the average
so-calIed good citizen prefers to remain at
home and toast his toes, to coming out to
the ward meeting and plucl<ily fighting
bossism, or patiently attending to prima-
ries, and standing off the schemes of the
bosses, or perseveringly sticking to the
right in politics until it wins. And 50 1t
is that bossism fiourishes, and good citi-
zenism does not, because the boss knows
the value of pluck, patience and persever-
ance, and Utilities it. while the good
citizen knows the value, but refuses to
avail of it.

THE sUrRoUNp1NG PROPERTY.

Adjoining on the west was two story
and basement, unoccupied, double frame
building. Adjoining on the east was the
four-story store of VIM. J. Heney & Co,
dealers in furniture, carpets, draperies, etc.
This store was protected by two-toot
brick partition wall, and to this safeguard
the firm owes its escape from the devouring
flames. Adjoining the store of Heney &,
Co. is four.story brick building, the lower
floor and basement occupied by I. ]. Bass
& Co., dealers in paints, oils, artists ma
terials. etc, and the three upper floors as
the Baldwin House. Had the fire pene-
trated the furniture store, it is not probable
the flames could have been kept cut of the
paint store, in which case the fire would
doubtless have swept through TO Stockton
street.
At S o'clock the fire was under sufficient
control to warrant Chief Scannell in order
ing several companies to take up
