DAMS COST MONEY.
Hydraulic Miners Are
Holding Back.
They Have Found Disadvantages in
the Caminetti Law and Want
Them Removed.

| About twenty members of the executive
committee of the California Miners Asso-
citation met yesterday. Jacob ii. Neff
presided and w. c. Ralston was secretary.
Congressman Caminetti. Mcguire and
Loud spoke. They are favorable to fos-
tering hydraulic mining. Congressman
HilborD was present a short time.
The Debris Commission. which was ap-
pointed under the Caminetti law, has so
far received very few petitions from
miners to carry on hydraulic mining. al
though it has been organized for over a
month. The reason why hydraulic miners
are not eager to put the Caminetti law
into practical operation was said 10 be the
uncertainty as to the expense to be en-
tailed on each of them under it. When a
petition for license is filed the engineers
Of the Debris Commission decide what
kind of a dam the petitioner must build
before beginning work on his mine.
The miner must pay for the preliminary
engineering work necessary for preparing
plans for each dam. IL the expense OF
construction be too great for him he can
withdraw his petition and not build the
dam. but if he decides tn have il built he
must deed his property TO the Government
! as security for the payment Of the cost.
The expense may be more than he can
meet and he is liable to lose all his prop
erty. Most of the miners, it was said. are
now without ready money to pay for such
work. They are waiting to see how much
the first few dams petitoned for are to
cost.
The Congressman present were willing
to have the law amended. but they needed
suggestions as to what amendments are
desirable. For their Information Senator
Iirey IL. Ford gave AN exhaustive state
ment Of the hydraulic mining question.
and cnmmitteo was appointed to prepare
suggestions. This committee consists of

and paid his respects to General Clarkson.
He believed in the Republican party as
the great American party. He looked
upon the closing down of factories and
general depression as evidences Of misgov-
eminent. Manufacturers were afraid they
might have to compete with foreign-made
commodities.
AS regards silver it might be all right
for the Eastern capitalists to say gold was
good enough for them, but it was not a
roor mans doctrine. The Democrats were
going to repeal the Sherman act and
tinker with the tar #. Let them beware.
Whenever there had been a great fnan-
cial crisis the Democrats had either been
the cause or were in power at the time.
He eXt0rted al! Republicans to faith and
effort in the glorious cause for which they
stood.
The gathering then resolved itself into
an enjoyable Conversations. the club MEM

OLIVE GROWERS.
They Hold Their Annual
Convention.
OIL. A UNIVERSAL PANACEA.

Sale of Imitation Olive Oil
to Be Enforced.
OIL A UNIVERSAL PANACEA.

The third convention of the olive-grow-
ers of the State met in Horticultural Hall
Yesterday. Elwood Cooper OF Santa Bar
bara presiding.
The president in his opening address
laid especial stress upon the act passed by
the last legislature which superseded the
net regulating the sale Of olive oil. Sec
tion of this act makes it obligatory on any
one putting an impure oil on the market
10 label it limitation Olive OIL" give the
name and address OF tho manufacturer or
compounder. and also the names and per-
centage of the ingredients contained in
each bottle or vessel. A further preventa-
tive against fraud is provided in section I,
wherein is required that oils made out OF
the State shall not bear cut or design by
which may be conveyed the belief that
such oil has been manufactured in the
State.
Hitherto no action has been taken toward
the institution of proceedings under this
act but it was the sense of the convention
that steps be taken in the future to pro-
tect the interests of the growers IN the
State.
Nothing is demanded by The terms Of the
act but what common honesty demands.

San Diego, and covered a wide range Of
ground.
Ancient and modern history has been
ransacked by the good doctor to prove
that fatty products were an absolute
necessity for the human system, and that
Americans were chief among sinners in
neglecting to avail themselves OF the boun-
ties of nature.
On this hypothesis the names of Allen,
Toner, Parry and Hunt, all scientific men
of standing, were used 20 fortify the posi-
lion taken: that the question of the per-
manence of the American people. unless
constantly sustained by emigration, would
not he open to dispute. There is steady
decline in the health. fecundity and lon

the judicious selection of ground for plant
ing and improved machinery. Then by
operating on large scale the oil could be
graded, and while all would be absolutely
pure, a purchaser could obtain oil at
more moderate cost than at present."
President Cooper gave some valuable
points CLEANED from his wide experience.
He stated that he had procured cuttings
of the Mission variety from San Fernando,
San Diego, San Ventura and Santa Bar
bara, and while all were different in their
original location when planted at his ranch
they all developed practically the same.
He ascribed this change in development to
difference In soil and climate. 81 have
planted another orchard of Mission Olives"
concluded Mr. Cooper. ''ior am too old
to experiment"
Z. NJ. Leong. secretary of the Horticul-
tural Society, gave a valuable recipe for
picking olives. More than one speaker
had announced his lack of success, when
Mr.. Lelong stated that he. too, for several
years failed to make perfect tasting and
marketable product. Eventually he sue
ceeded by picking the olives from the tree
by hand. 1t is essential that the fruit be
neither pricked nor bruised. Placing the
olives in shallow vat, say thirty inches
deep. they were then ready to receive the
liquid pickle compounded as follows: One
pound of concentrated I'VE to every ten gal

gallons of water first. A four hours solu-

unsette ed condition of the country was, ne
believed, not wholly due to financial
stringency but 10 the uneasy 1eeilng that
Cleveland favored free trade. The manu-

Still he was not one who looked with
announcement on the future. On the
contrary. lie looked for a sweeping Repub-
Iican victory in 1886. This was yonng
Republican club, aud the Republicans in
California only waited Tor Il true Repuoli-
can platform to swing into line and give
us a Republican President and RepuDll-
can Congress at Washington.
General William II. L. Barnes then
made one OF his happiest speeches. He
had hoped that he was to be allowed to
retire from public speaking, but the name
OF General Clarkson had proved too
strong. He saw in him the shade, the
eidolon of James &. Blaine, his great
friend, and had been inspired to tell him
how much California had loved that
statesman. In poetical language lie eulo-
giZed California and it's patriotism.
Yet, like every body polite. California
was sometimes afflicted. Last year it had
slight attack of the chills, which it was
now recovering from. He believed that
the Democratic advantage was not an in
dica ton of failure in Republican sentl-
ment but protest against the use OF the
machine Mt the Minneapolis convention.
Such ca,acl ysm would never occur again.
"My GOD. General Clarkson." exclaimed
the speaker. turning toward the dis
tnguished guest. what chance for a
Republican orator next campaign. No
day will be long enough. no night dark
en- ough to tell of the misrule of the DEM
ocrats."
That misrule had begun already. The
Democrats were divided and doubt, fear
and disaster were lowering over the nation.
He was as confident Of the future of the
Republican party in California as he was
of the future of this city by the bay. Zap

DISSATISFIED CREDITORS.
The State Investment Company
Passes Into Insolvency.


The State Investment and Insurance
Company has been officially declared in
solvent. The creditors. not sati,fed with
the proceedings Of the previous evening,
when Attorney General Hart applied for
a receiver, and Judge Hebbard made the
necessary order. filed petition to throw
the company into Involuntary insolvency.
TIE petition was heard before Judge
Levy yesterday morning. Attorney Ruef
appeared on behalf OF other creditors IN
opposition to the involuntary insolvency.
He maintained that the claims OF the
creditors were made against individual d.
rect0rS OF the company and not against
the company as corporate body. Then
he asserted that the company was not in
solvent at all.
TO this last assertion Judge Levy re-
piled by requesting Ruef to prove what he
claimed. kuef said he could prove the
solvency of the company only as to certain
claims. but Judge Levy refused to accept
that and SAID that he could not hear him
unless he could show that the company
could pay all IS just debts.
Fisher Ames was put on the Witness
stand and testified that the corporation
was insoveDt and that three attachments
had been levied against it prior to June J..
Ruef interrupted, objectlng 10 the testi-
mony and asserting that great fraud was
being perDetrated on the court. He said
that the petition was not brought by bona
6de creditors, but it was really the petl-
ton of the directors to vilate the former
proceedings taken before Judge Hebbard
10 chambers.
Ruef's arguments. however. failed 10
convince Judge Levy, who, upon the evil
dence furnished by Fisher Ames, one of
the directors of the company, made an
order declaring the State Investment and
Insurance Company insoIvent.
