THE ANTI-DEBRIS ASSOCIATION.
Attorney DevIin Explains the Position
1t Occupies.
Not Making Treaties With Hydraulic
Miners, and is Opposed to Gov
ernment Aid To Them.

Replying to recent article in the Ec-
dhliner on the subject of hydraulic min
ing and the attitude OF the Anti-Debris
Association, X. L. Devlin, the associa-
tion's counsel. in a letter to that paper,
says:
''In your issue of November 2gth ap-
pears an article headed, 'GuIch Hydraulics
May Run-Attorney Devlin Tx plains the
Position of the Valley Men, IN which
you quote me as saying: The state Anti
Debris Association no longer opposes the
lmpounding OF debris in gulcheS and
similar places. W hat we object TO and
what we Will light against is the putting
OF dams IN streams like the North Fork
OF the American River. . SO long
as the miners keep their operations IN
the gulches and small creeks the Anti
Debris Association viii not put a straw
In their way. When they invade the
main streams we will oppose them with
all the VigOr at our command.
AS L know you intend to represent
the AnLi-Debris Association correctly, l
desire 10 say that you have misappre-
hended my remarks. 1t IS true, as you
state, that we shall oppose bitterly and
to the last ditch the building OF dams i'll
torrentlal streams, no matter by whom
approved. SO much is correct. But |
did not make, nor was l authorized TO
OF dams in guIches or small creeks. L
Sald we had not opposed some OF the
mines where small dams had been
erected in gulches, but laid down no rule
OF conduct to be pursued.
Nv are tghtlng injury from whatever
source IL comes. The State Antl-Debris
Association is organized for the purpose
OF preventing injury TO the naVigable
rivers OF California and the adjacent lands
by hydraulic mining. 1t viii prevent
| that injury whether II comes from hy-
draulic mines operated from behind
dams in small creeks, or elsewhere. Iy-
draulic mining is treated by the laws of
the United States as dangerous busi-
ness. 1t can only be carried on at all
where 1t may affect navigable rivers, by
permission of the commission organized
by Congress, and it is danger Gus busl-
ness even then.
I'VE are not engaged in making treaties
with hydraulic miners, nor compromis-
ing with tnem IN any manner. They are
conducting private business for their
private profit. They have conducted 1t
IN utter disregard of the DEGREES of courts
ana IN contemptIOus violation OF the
property rights OF their fellow citizens
If they can conduct their business with
out injuring us they have a right to do so.
But we are not making bargains with
them ana telling them what they may do
| or may not do. We ask and shall see
that they do not injure us. We are op-
! posed to the Government aiding them
| Wlthzmoney, because we have to paw a
part OF 1t, ana we shall oppose being
! taxed to aid private business"
