II IS understood that in order to evade
the law Regulating hydraulic mining
quite number of the best mines in the
State are leased by their owners to China
men. This is bad enough of itself if the
question Of labor be considered; but it is
made far worse by the fact that the lease
is verbal only, and kept secret between
the parties thereto, who are really part
ners in Illicit mining, in order to obstruct
the execution of the law, which, owing to
this device, leaves the owner of the prop
erty exempt, and can only reach his
Chinese lessee with difficulty and delay.

Much has been said about the loss to
the State due to the suppression of hy-
draulic mining-about the great sum Of
gold that would be added to the annual
output, if this sort of mining were re-
sumed and all restrictions removed.
Such statements are gross exaggerations.
The yield, exclusively from placers, in
1882 was SS5, ,O00, 900. Since then it has be-
come less and less, until the yearly out
put has reached about Sl2, 600, 900 or SI3, :
100000 per year. In 1888. when by ydraulic
mining was at its hight, the total gold
yield of the State was less than Sl4,OOO0OO.
Owing mainly to development in other
forms OF mining, the present yearly out
put is about an average of what it has
been for the last thirteen years; that is,
from 1882 to 1891, inclusive

THE Board of Engineers appointed un-
der an Act of Congress to investigate the
mining debris question in California, re-
ported, in 189I-since which the condi-
tions have continued substantially the
same-that the quantity of earth remain
ing, capable of being worked by hy-
draulic process, on the Yuba and its
tributaries was 500, 900 900 cubic yards: on
the Bear and American and their tribu-
taries, 262, 100000 cubic yards; total of
1,I27 100000 cubic yards. Let it be noted
that the Feather and other rivers are ex-
cluded from this count. The same report
estimates the debris deposited in the
Feather, Yuba, Bear and American
Rivers at about 25O,OOO 600 cubic yards
We therefore have threatening us more
than four times the enormous amount of
debris that has already proved such
calamity to the State.

The fate of the Lamont and Williams
girls is now treated of as warming to
girls about the freedom of movement of
which we boast as independence. 1t is
timely sermonizing. We have long
taken pride in the immunity of Ameri-

they can travel the continent over unes-
corted, but in safety. Truth is, we have
carried this belief to the extreme in prac-
tice. By the independence we have cuI-
tivated in women we have augmented
the dangers to which they are exposed.

THE nALF->rILLIoN CLUB.

Some wild-eyed theorists have con-
ceived the notion that population may be
induced to settle down on San Francisco
by the blowing Of tin-horns and the beat
ing of drums, after the old-fashioned
manner in which swsrming bees were
induced to settle on the limb Of tree It
is one of the peculiarities of this new or
ganization that it has not given appar-
emily the slightest attention to the subject
as to how population is induced to locate
at any particular place. 1t is only by the
activity that population is absorbed into
the general economy of the community.
Noise has nothing TO do with it. Manu-
featuring advantages proclaim them
selves. Men are seeking such advantages
as diligently as if they were searching for
needles in a hay-stack. a community
resources, unmindful OF the fact that the
most industrious searcher after CONNER
cial and industrial advantages of all kinds
is money. No part of this country has
escaped the microscopic investigation Of
men who have money to invest.
But there is one thing, however, that
the people in any community can do, and
that is to see that the advantages they
possess are thoroughly utilized. An Off
cal statement issued by the United States
Consul at Honolulu declares that sugar is
being shipped by sea around Cape Horn
direct to New \ York from that port. The
statement proceeds to show that already
800, ,OOO tons of sugar have been shipped
in this way; and that the effect on the
commercial relations between the Sand
wich Islands and San Francisco is very
disastrous. The volume of commercial
transactions between San Francisco and
Honolulu is about $l3,OO0O0O per aunum,
including exports and imports. This
was a very important matter to the city
Of San Francisco. That commerce alone
would sustain a population of from
twenty-five to thirty thousand inhabi-
tants; but it is endangered by the ship
ment Of sugar direct to New \ ork.
The Consul states in his official report
that sailing craft brought merchandise
from San Francisco to Honolulu at low
rates, attracted by the opportunity of
carrying cargoes OF sugar back to San
Francisco. Likewise, freight rates by
steamer were low, because cargoes each
way might be obtained. If New York
reaches out to the Sandwich Islands and
takes the sugar output of that country
around the Horn. or, when the Nicaragua
Canal is completed, through the canal,
then San Francisco will lose its relations
with Honolulu.
Matters of this kind should have con-
sideration by the Chamber of Commerce
/ of San Francisco. a committee should
/ be appointed at once to know why the
commercial relation between San Fran
/ cisco and the Sandwich Islands is about
to be diverted to New York. The news
papers of san Francisco should not make
business of denouncing all capital
which seeks Investment in the city,

The Anti-Debris Association of the
Sacramento Valley, organized for the
purpose of preventing, by all lawful
means, injury to navigabIe streams and
adjacent lands by hydraulic mining, is a
life-preserying, as well as a property
preserving, institution. The necessity of
its existence is a sad commentary upon
the lack of regard in one portion of the
community for the legal, not to say the
natural and moral, rights of the other
and greater portion. 1t is a continuing
and grievous tax to maintain the associa-
ton, especially during these hard times,
but there is no alternative It must be
maintained.

THE story has been put afloat, though
it is not traceable to authority of a relia-
bic character, that the Governor contem-
plates choosing for the third Superior
Judge for this county from outside the
bar of Sacramento. The suggestion in
suits the intelligence of the Executive
He would not thus gratuitousIy slur the
bar of this county, which would by such
choice be practically told that it has not
fit material from which to select. \
choice from outside would, besides, be
satisfactory to neither of the political
parties, nor to the friends of any of the
candidates honorably aspiring.

COLONEL G. H. MENDELL, Corps Of
United States Engineers, estimated that
about 30 per cent. of the material, bowl
ders excluded, washed down by the
monitor passes into the rivers in sus-
pension. This of itself is an alarming
feature of the ''slickens" nuisance. To
quote the report Of the United States De-
bris Commission of December, 1891:
This character Of material can be stored
only in cases where a period of rest can
be secured behind barriers. The period
Of stagnation is rarely sufficient to alb
solutely precipitate all the suspended
material. To require this in most cases
would be equivalent to the suspension of
hydraulic mining"

AN instance of possible evasion of the
law is to be found in the brush dam with
two weirs at Columbia Hill, Yuba
County, Eureka Lake Company. 1t
would require no great labor or loss of
time to turn such stream of water into
the mass of collected debris as to stir it
up and send great part of it through the
weirs. An accidental break in the dam
would accomplish the same result with
less difficulty.

whether in manufacturing or commercial
enterprises, as monopolies. Matters in
this relation have practical value, but
they require the attention of an organiza-
ton which is steady and persistent, which
has means at its command, which is in
touch with the Congressional delegation,
| and can bring to bear an influence upon
national legislation. San Francisco will

has been seriously given TO this matter

In the meantime, the Half Million
Club proposed to carry Thousand people
to Los Angeles to attend the Fiesta. The
thousand was reduced to about eighty
seven. Its object was to organize an ex-
cursion of people from Southern Cali
fornia; thousand people were to come
home on the return trip, pursuing an os-
tentatious itinerary from the mountains
to the valleys and the valleys to the sea.
The Half Million Club is now on its re-
turn trip, and telegraphic announce
ment Of its arrival at Porterville states
that there are twenty-four ladies and gem
.tlemen in the party.
In the infancy of communities, when
they can look to the future with certainty
as to growth and Importance they
usually have what may be termed the
brass band age. Los Angeles and all
Southern California had it's brass band
stage of growth. Nearly all the available
level land in The vicinity of Los Angeles
was divided into town lots. At a later
period, sixteen thousand of these lots
were sold for taxes. S an Francisco has
had its brass band stage, and cannot re-
turn to 1t with any degree of profit. 1t
will have a half million inhabitants
when profitable employment can be
found for that many people.
All forms of animal life, including men,
are found in the greatest numbers where
| the food which sustains animal life is
most easily obtained. Profitable and
productive employment is the means by
which mankind sustains life, and the
greatest number of people will be found
where their industry is most readily en-
ployed. The population of San Francisco
will be determined by the magnitude Of
its manufactures and commerce. It's
manufactures will flourish if they pos
sess in the competitive race with other
Localities superior advantages. Its com
mercial Importance will likewise depend
upon the advantages it offers as a market
Of exchange. The organization and eff
fective direction of capital into CONNER
cial and industrial channels will have
practical result. Excursions TO attend
festas and flower shows will leave no
trace Of growth in their wake.

there is very little personal property in

of all cases of consumption can, if taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener-
ally in use for its treatment as, nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy enulsions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
hypophosphites and such like baLIiGti1eS.
Although by many believed to be incura-
BILE, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption is a durable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
ce7ltGgs' of cases, and we believe, fully 03
Per cent are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with Copious eXpeCtoTatiOn (inClud-
ing tuberCular 1uatter) great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to US as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery" were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiCed and advised against
trial of Golden Medical Discovery" ="
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emu1sions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on re-
Ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn

The San Francisco Call of October 81,
1882, said: "The currents in the Bay of
San Francisco are still strong, but not SO
strong as they were in 1849 and 1850. AS
the force of the currents diminish, so the
power to carry debris out into the ocean
diminishes. The lodgment therefore be-
comes more rapid as the current becomes
more sluggish. Substantially, the alter
native presented to the people of this
State is to close down all hydraulic mines
that deposit their taiIings into water
courses, or to submit to the loss of the
harbor of San Francisco. Expedients
may be devised whereby the debris may
be kept back for time, but ultimately,
as certain as the waters run down hill,
the debris will move to the sea. =
1t is all very well to ask Congress to
dredge the rivers and strengthen the
levees, but Congress is not likely to ap-
propriate much money for this purpose
while the work of destruction goes on.
