We do not believe in personal
journalism. In abusing nelghboring
towns or showing up the faults of
persons or places, unless by circum-
stances it becomes absolutely necessa-
ry. We were in hopes that the con-
test for county seat this fall would
be conducted by the papers at least
in respectable manner, but for weeks
the Granada Exponent has published
everything they could get hold of,
that would as they thought injure
Lamar. If the Exponent continues
this upcalled for abuse. 1t will be
nessessary for us to show up the
conditions of Granada, to give the
particulars in full of the judgement
of thirty-nine thousand dollars now
held over the town, their financial
condition generly. How and why
at the treasurers tax sales Granada
property had no takers, there is plen-
ty damaging to the town that can
be published, there is enough truths
can be said to prove the town should
not be considerd a candidate for
county seat by the tax payers, but
as we said before we do not believe
in that kind of warfare, and will not
indulge In it, unless we are forced to
by attacts made On Lamar. 1t is no
secret that Lamar and Granada will
do everything in their power to Sc
cure the permanent county seat, but
that 1t will benefit either town to get
down TO a three months cat.fight, a
regular Kansas row, disgraceful alike
to the towns, county and state, is all
foolIshness. Lamar as n town. as a
people, have always tried to treat the
neighboring towns with fairness, such
a course is our choice now, but if we
are to be misrepresented at all times,
we will make fight that we hope
will be entirely satisfactory before
they are done with the town.

ALTA CALIFORNIA: Governor Wa-
termsn has fled sufficient answer to
many who are nagging him in his ap-
pointment of Joaquin Miller to the
Forestry Commisson. It i excellent
in all its bearings. The new Com
missioner il . man Of worldwide
fame, and this linking Of his name
with California is to the States cred
it. But aside from thu he has pro-
found knowledge Of forestry. It il
that kind Of knowledge which can be
gained only by the most affectionate
and appreciate conversation with Ma
ture. His lore was learned in the
forests primsval, and its lessons have
been sharpened by travel and obser-
walton in many lands where civiliza-
tion and the forests have declined and
decayed together. The late Cover
nor Bartlett, appreciating bis merits,
appointed him to represent the State
at the last National Forestry Con-
gress, and his paper road to that body
was not only : most delightful
literary performance, but a keen,
practical discussion Of the subject.
It has been translated and published
In Europe, where its conclusions are
accepted by individuals and official
bodies specially interested IN the
preservation of forests. In his own
original way Joaquin Miller will con-
vert the functions of the Commission
to practical uses immensely benefi-
cial to the State. In his lofty home-
stead in the Contra Costa Mountains
he has with his own hands toilfully
assembled the useful and ornamental
members of forest family of trees,
whose umbrage will in after days be
made classic by his memory. His
work with spade and pick has al
ready written on the far-rising slopes
q poem in trees, which will be read
by thousands who look upon it from
the bay in the future years, when
what he has wrought there will be
amongst the place of refined pill
grimage which add to the attractions
of San Francisco.

A GOOD many Of the old timers do
not remember the winter and spring
OF 1877. That winter was much like
the past one, there being but little
snow, and the south sides Of the hills
were bare all winter. There was
sleighing only two weeks, and stock
wintered in the hills and did we'll.
A great deal of rain fell that spring
and during the early part Of the sum-
mer, and the mining season was a
good one. The storms began in
April. Mr.. Plowman informs us that
he had good head of water that year
until IN August. If this continues
on like the year 1877 we will have a
long mining season. The miners are
starting in good deal earlier than
usual, and if the clerk of the weather
concludes to make up for the unusu-
ally long, dry, sunny era, which has
continued for whole year, and open
the flood gates Of the upper realm to
pay up back debts in the weather
line, we will have good placer min
ing season. The weather boss usu-
ally evens things in the management
Of his bureau, and what be fails to do
during the winter months he atones
for during the spring and summer.
In 1877 Mr.. Plowman says he had a
full head of water for his own use
from March Goth until sometime in
the month of August, aud besides
this had water to sell.
