Revising Constitution.

On motion of c. T. Deane the chair was
authorized to name committee of three
to revise the constitution and bylaws of
the association. The committee as made
up includes Martin D. Kerr of Grass Val
ley, w. II. Dunton of FL Dorado County
and Colonel George Stone of San Fran
cisco.
The special committee to deal with the
absent James O'Brien reported that the
rights of the Government having been
made secure by the prompt action of the
convention, without the payment to
OBrien of the $500 that was raised
among the bushes men of San Francisco,
the money would all be paid back to the
contributors.
This closed the O'Brien chapter with
one exception. OBrien had sent letter
to Mr.. Caminetti resigning his position
on the associaticn's committee on dams
Whelan of Shasta County demanded that
this letter should be read.
NO answered Caminetti, ''he shall
not throw slurs at this convention in e
letter. If he wishes to find fault let hira
have the courage to come here in person
and do it,
1t was late yesterday afternoon when
the convention concluded its labors.

Resolved, That we heartily favor the amend

vised Statutes of the United States, concerning
the location of mining claims that the loca-
tor shall be accorded a reasonable and definite
time within which to finally mark his surface
boundaries the ground, soH that all local
rules, regulations and customs of miners and
all State and Territorial law on the locations of
mines shall be abolished; and so that, while
liberal provisions shall be made for the protec-

claim in good faith, the law concerning annual
assessment shall most effectually check the
present injurious practice of holding mining
claims year after year without development.

eral in character and which are recognized as
mineral by the people who seek to secure them
as such by subterfuge, legal technicalities and
outright perjury, the petroleum industry faces
the matter of most serious present concern to
it in its relation to the Federal laws and their
administration We believe that this problem
is peculiarly one in which the whole mining
industry of the State is interested, together
with the petroleum miners, and solemnly
pledge our highest endeavors to protect the
heritage of the miner in the public domain in
accordance with the letter and spirit of the
benefcent laws which were intended by Con-
gress to sacredly preserve the vast mineral
sources of the public domain to the mining
industry that their development might be
coura ged and fostered. We distinctly favor the
proposition that where a contest takes place
between a scripper and a miner in any de-
partment of the United States land office, the
burden of proof shall be placed upon the scrip
per and not on the miner

pride to the early construction, already

BR|TONS TALK
Of SIR REDVERS
Tremendous Excitement
Caused by Dismissal
Of Butler.
Suggestions That "Petticoat"
Influence Has Been
Active.
Special Dispatch to Tbs Call.


LONDON. Oct. 23-The principal topic
of conversation to-day was the summary
dismissal Of Sir Redvers Butler. Wher-
ever one went nothing s1ss was talked
about. A good deal Of attention Is given
to one explanation Of the affair. 1t is an
open secret that what IS known as pet
ticoat influence" has been far TOO strong
at the War Ofice ever since the Duke OK
Cambridge resigned and the present COM
mander In chief has not escaped IT, There
are many people who are inclined to ap-
plaud the speech Of H. C.. Richards, 4
c., the night before last, at the North
ampton, who declared that II Lord Rob
erts would leave bazaar openings 10 Lady
Roberts and take stan selections and
there might be great reform at the War
Office.
II am told" says the informant, 'that
ever since General Butler refused TO cor
rect his Spion KOp dispatches he has been
subjected to the bitter hostility OF Lady
Roberts, who used every effort to force
her husband to demand his recall. Within
the last few days her antipathy has found
fresh vent owing to this Westminster
speech. 1t IS said she compelled 'Bobs' to
go to the War Office and demand 0f
Brodrick that he should issue an order
for General Buffers resignation.
Such an order was issued, but OLD
Butler replied with a fat refusal to
resign Then Lord Roberts and Mr.. Brod-
rick put their heads together and waited
for the Kings return to London to lay
before his Majesty the alternative OF
Buffers dismissal or their resignation
''It was by no means a pleasant inter
view. AT first the King refused point
blank to countenance any such drastic
proceedings. He defended Butler right
and left and declared that such a provo
cation as anonymous attacks were no
warrant for such an explosion on the part
of bluff old soldier, but Lord Roberts
and Mr.. Brodrick were equally stubborn.
Lord Roberts threatened to resign in .
stanter unless a royal mandate was IS
sued for Buffers decapitation."

WATER RIGHTS

Uneasiness in Hawaii
Over a Recent Regu-

Special Correspondence.

HONOLULU, Oct. 16.-Considerable un-
easiness has been created among some Of
the largest sugar planting corporations by
the ruling of the Secretary of the Interior
at Washington which puts an end to the
negotiations of certain capitalists for the
privilege of developing the Kohala Noun
tain water. Several of the largest
plantations are obtaining water rising on
public lands. Governor Dole announced,
ested parties the decision of the Secre-
tary of the Interior that it affected all
such water privileges granted since an
nexatiOn.
A controversy is on between the Board
of Health and the Public Works Depart
ment regarding the operation of a stone
quarry, with blasting and machine crush
ing incidental, on the edge of the insane
asylum grounds. The department has not
means for removing either the plant or
the asylum and the roads need the quar-
ried material.

ed to have no speakers from other States
and a campaign of eleven days will be
carried on by Ohio speakers only. Kill
bourne said in part:
Patriotic Republicans, you who love your
country and are devoted to its free institutions,
will you remain longer with those who, seek
ing to extend the exercise of arbitrary power
by the Government, preach that we have out
grown the constitution, will you unite with
those who believe that the preservation of con-
stitutional liberty is of greater consequence
than finding new fields for exploitation by the
trusts or the establishment of hybrid impe-
rialism?
The Democratic party wages no against
wealth. 1t is not poor mans party the
rich mans party. 1t is the peoples party 1t
believes that the interests of labor and capital
should not be permitted to conflict and should
be harmonized by judicious legislation, but
that in the event of conflict between them
labor, which is the parent of wealth, is entitled
to paramount consideration. 1t opposes monop-
oily. not only because it is unjust and oppres-
sive but because It is destructive of equality;
but it would not legislate to check the legiti-
mate operation of our great industries. 1t has
sympathy with communism and anarchisn
but 1T believes in taxing the wealth rather than
the labor of the country, and 1t opposes and
from its principles must ever oppose, all sub
sdy, trusts and monopoles as hostile to the in
terests of the great body of the common people,
on whose prosperity the welfare of country

Mineral Lands Bill.
Whereas There is an absolute, urgent and
immediate necessity for the segregation of the
mineral lands within the railroad land grants
of the State of California in order that such
mineral lands may be restored to the public
domain and thus made available to the min
ing prospector. These mineral lands were es-
pecially excepted from the railroad land grants
and have never been granted by the United
States Government to any railroad company,
and were intended to be specifically preserved
as a part of the public domain open explora-
ton and purchase under Federal mining laws
The task of securing proper and effective
classification and segregation of the mineral
fornia undertaken several years since by
the California Delegate in Congress through the
suggestion and cooperation of the California
Miners Association but the efforts thus made
have been so far unavaiing. 1t is now be-
lieved, however that opportune time

S. D. Woods spoke, advising that Senator
John F. Davis should be authorized 10
draw up bill to be presented to Con-
gress to secure the needed additional ap-
preparation for the Yuba River dam and
promising to introduce the bill at the
in the committees. Congressman Woods
also promised to prepare mineral lands
bill, copying 1T from the old bill that
failed. He also forcibly urged that the
corning the Chinese exclusion act that
the California delegation in Congress
might have behind them the moral effect
of the action OF the California miners.
Congressman Coombs spoke of the Yuba
dam and other matters. He said that the
Congressional delegation should give tho
Yuba works all the support they could in
Congress. Congressman COOmbs also
spoke concerning the exclusion of Chinese
from the United States He said that !:
was whispered about in the East that
the farmers and miners of California
wanted more Chinese laborers to develop
their lands and mines and that railroad
builders also wanted the Chinese. He did
not think that representatives of these in
terests in California would sit silent un
der these 1mpItat1onS. He was largely
acquainted with the farmers and thought
that he knew their wishes concerning the
exclusion of the Chinese.
If there was not enough labor in Cali
fornia to Immediately develop its re-
sources it was better to let them lie in
allegiance until they could be developed
by Americans. Let all interests get to-
gether, he said, and tell the East that the
people of the State are united against the
coming in of the Chinese. Congressman
Coombs also promised to work for the
proposed National Department of Mines
and Mining.
