' Rlowing appears to be all the rage here at present. Yesterday was n very disagreeable day, on account of a ter rible blow from the direction of Ana heim. The sky was clouded with dust and sand. Some call it a Santa Anna, if it is named in honor of the hero of Mexico, we would gladly be spared the Visits of any more of his namesakes. Jack Frost lias paid bis compliments to some portions of our Valley, and put iv a general appearance among melon vih.es aiMlgrtteli tomatoes. We visited the city of Nietos to-day. Saver*] buildings arv in the course of construction. The busy hum of the suw ami hummei' are heard in every direction. An enterprising liveryman of Gallatin, Tommy Canovan, lias un swered our call and bought a lot, and erect a livery aud fceoHdable.'wfiere friends visiting us can be accommodated with ti nice turn out. Mr. Barnett, of the college, goes into hlaeksadthing. Mr. Graham is build ing a boarding-house. While the good people of Compton, San Gabriel and Los Angeles are hold ing convent'ons to secure legislation to increase the supply of water for ir rigation, the N.CW River are spending their *'tne' and money in boi ijuf artesian .wclis, with great success. Five df six WwU have been completed in the last few months, all getting a good. How of water. We.have read with some care the liruceedings of the Irrigation Conven tion held in the bity cm the 25th inst., and must admit that we have not been able to see the ptfnfjuojpn it be to take from .those*, who httve r tind give to mowb «t|uU nave not, or else set up an other system of tndtH'idy to tax one por tion of the State for the benefit of an •oirher. >Vhat tlo the people of Siski you care about the irrigation of Los Angeles? Suppose we create aii Irriga tion Bureau for the State with v hatch of useless ofiicers to be paid out of the soil of the irrigated districts, (for we could not in justice' tax any other, for there is no other benefitted.) Then And ourselves so heavily taxedifor wuto*« that we could not af- to pay for It, for the Bureau must be. self-sustaining, or, else we must have State appropriations to sus tain it; and that would be taking the money of nouinterested counties. While there is great opposition to pri vate companies control ing the waters at jthisA-ounty for irrigating purposes, the water can be more cheaply utilized, controled, and sold to the farmers, guarded by wise and equitable legislation than by the course, proposed by the. Convention. The present system of each district ,iH*dTphng .R.s "own water, with some Nvfth some amendments to the present law, we are sure, is far preferable. Obsf.hveh.
