HYDRAULIC MINING
Hon. c. p. Berry Explains His Pos
fin,,

lion. c. p. Berry Explains His Posi-
ton.
EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN: Happening to be
be IN the Assembly Chamber this after
noon, found pamphlet containing the
remarks made by me before the Miners
convention held in San Francisco Janu-
airy 20, 1892. In this pamphlet a certain
sentence Is placed in black type, for the
purpose, l presume, of creating the i'm
preston that L was in favor Of an Act
10 change the law as it now stands by in
PRODUCING the misleading term, without
material injury
My remarks do not bear that construc-
tlon, ana nothing was further from NV
intention. In common with MANY rem
resehtatlyes OF the valley, attended the
Miners convention, and the views ex-
pressed there met with nv concurrence
IL was there said that the hydraulic min
eTs recognized the fact that their system
OF mining had been highly iniurious to
lhe sacramento Valley, and that the only
solution OF the question lay in the action
OF congress in leaving the matter to the
engineering corps of the War DEPART
ment. An impression seemed to prevail
mat there was feeling of hostility
among the people of the valley to the
miners, and that they would oppose any
effort to secure Congressional aid,
No such feeling has ever existed The
people of the valley have been struggling
Tor many years to preserve their property
from ruin, and they have not objected to
dlscoloration ofwater or other acts which
did not produce them injury. The min
ers said that they would make no effort
to change the legal status OF the hydraulic
mining question, recognizing the decis-
ions as just, but would seek relief in
changing the physical conditions by Sc
curing the erection of dams and restrain
ing works by which hydraulic mining
might be prosecuted under the supervis-
ION OF the Engineering Department of the
Federal Government without injury, and
that until such action was had would re-
fraln and use their efforts to restrain
others from mining by the hydraulic
process. | think myself tins is the only
sensible view, and assured the conven-
ton that there was no desire to hinder
the solution OF the question with Justice
to both sides.
But to change the present law is an
other matter. TO that 1 am unalterably
opposed. | have read Senate Bill No. So
and think that its adoption would be an
act OF injustice to the valley, and its only
effect would be to delay the solution of
the question by Congress for many wears,
If 1t would not altogether prevent Con-
gresslonal aid to the miner.

CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE.
CONTINUED FROM FIFTH PAGE

tee. The bill has been bitterly contested
by the counties through and upon which
sheep-owners drive and herd their fIocks,
they arguing that as no source OF revenue
to such counties can be derived by direct
taxation they should be allowed to inn
pose a license tax if they so wish. On
the other hand, the sheep-owners claim
that a hardship is thereby thrown upon
them, and that they should have a right
to Craze their herds upon public domains
regardless of the fact that il may lie in and
is part of an organized county.
The matter was badly mixed in the
committee, and majority of the Assem-
bly, side voted in favor of incorporating
the provision in the bill. The members
of the Senate committee were opposed to
the insertion, and danger appeared immi-
ment, until happy medium was struck
which brought relief to all parties con-
cerned. 1t was determined TO insert the
measure and send it to the Assembly.
from whence, if not eliminated it will
be sent to the Senate, where it is thought
it will be buried, as that body will rely
upon the report of their committee The
bill as completed goes to the printer this
morning.
