The Thing NeedfuI.

The Oroville Register has the following
very sensible remarks and an interesting
fact connected with it is, that it applies with
equal force to the vicinity of Sacramento
as well as numerous other localities, as to
need of dividing into small holdings and
supplying water. 1t SAYS: The Register
has for long time past tried to induce i'm
migrants 10 come to this section, for we
were confident that we had as good a eli
mate and soil as there was in the State for
the production of fine fruits. Weare forced
to say at last that something more must be
done than to describe our climate and re-
sources. Under the present outlook emil
grants are not coming. They must be as
sured of two things ere they will invest
any money in this part of the State. They
must know that they can buy land in small
| tracts, and that with this land water
right will be guaranteed. Assure US OF
these two facts and we will guarantee in
turn, that more newcomers will flock here
| than the county has seen since the days of
| 40. Think of county that over 100 par-
ties in it own over !, 900 acres of land apiece.
| Cut up the land and bring in the water, and
| then we shall have county worth Dragging
about Till that is, done we are certain
| that we have no more words to waste in
describing Butte. To bring in the wafer
rests with the men who have capital to in
vest, and to divide the land up rests with
| the men who own it. Will these men
take hold in earnest and make our county
what it ought to be-"

The Mardi Gras an Assured Fact.

The Mardi Gras Committee met at the
Courthouse last evening. The attendance
was large, and the deliberations marked
with enthusiasm. A communication was
received from the Fourth of July Execu-
tive Committee giving official notice that
5000 had been set apart to assist in defray
ing the expenses of the evening parade.
The communication was received, placed
on file. and the Secretary directed to ac-
knowledge receipt of the same, and return
thanks for the donation. After consider
able discussion as to the character of the
procession, it was decided to eliminate
everything of burlesque or Objectionable
nature, and make the demonstration supe-
rior to any former attempt. Not less than
ten floats, or allegorical cars, some OF I'M
mense size Will be i'll line. The subjects
were discussed, but it was deemed advisa-
BILE not TO make the same public, so that
the citizens not knowing what they are to
behold will be agreeably surprised. The
matter of finance. that has been here
tofore. apparently an insurmountable bar
rier, has been overcome by proifered dona-
tons, and the offer of number OF proml-
nent gentleman to canvas the city for funds.
Frank Smith, who was present, supple
mented his remarks in favor of hight pro-
cession by donation of $50. The services
of a professional scenic artist, gentleman
who has had much experience IN Mardi
Gras preparations have been secured, and
he will enter upon his work to-day. The
procession as now outlined will be much
larger than that of last year. and the de-
tails indicate that it will surpass IN gran
deur anything of the kind heretofore at
tempted in this city. The management OF
the evening parade will make all their ar
rapgements in such way that they will
not in any manner interfere with those
made for the day parade and both com-
mittees will work in perfect harmony. their
only object and aim being that of securing
for Sacramento a celebration that will be
nm honor alike to the day we celebrate =
and the citizens of the Capital City.
