LETTER UPON IRRIGATION.
Ana ii kirn, Nov. 5, 187^1.
Hon. John (i. Pavney, Sin: At
the close of the meeting of the Special
('oininittee, appointed at the recent
Irrigation ('(invention, held in Los
Angeles, it was resolved, thai all per
sons who had given thought to the
solution of the irrigation qucfrttoil,
should write out their views and for
ward them to you, as chairman ofthe
c miniittce, bo that said committee
c mid hy a comparison Of views ascer
tain what the public sentiment of the
poeple of this county was 0:1 this im
portant subject. And this having
been done, that a bill embodying
those views could be carefully prepar
ed by the best legal talent, to be pre
sented for passage by our legislative
delegation, during the coming- legis
lature. To prevent delay it is impor
tant that the question should be fully
discussed ami understood, before the
commencement of the session, and
iv order that the parties I Uteres ted
should know what is to be done. It is
better that all communications on this
subject should he printed in the news
papers of this county, the managers of
which will doubtless be glad to give
reasonable space in their columns far
the discussion of so important a
measure.
I oiler the following as my opinion
what the main features of the law
should he, in order to enahles us to
effect the object which we have in
view:
I, Each Irrigation District should be
separate nnd distinct from all others.
The boundaries to include all lands
that can be irrigated from said source
of public water supply, without any
reference to county and townsnip lines.
To ascertain said boundaries, a care
ful survey should be made at tho ex
pense of said district, to ascertain the
quantity of water that can be made
available forthe purposes of Irrigation,
from each public source of water sup
ply. Then a line should be run to as
certain the highest level upon which
it is practicable to construct adftchfoi
conveying said water upon the lands
to he irrigated, in orde rto utilize said
water as a manufacturing power, be
fore using it upon the low lying lands
for the purpose of irrigation.
iJ, The district boundaries to be the
outer Hue of said tract of land t hat can
he irrigated by said water supply.
The money used for the construction of
said ditch, and to pay the expenses,
such as paying for the right of way,
lands required for reservoirs, duchsatid
other expenses Incidental to the con
struction, maintenance, and effective
utilization of said ditch, to be provid
ed for ny levying a pro rata tax upon
each acre of land, that can be irriga
ted by said ditch, and upon all other
real and personal property in said dis
trict, that will be enhanced in value
by the construction of said ditch.
ii. Five Water Commissioners shall
lie elected in each district who shall be
authorized to levy taxes to pay for the
construction of said ditch, and its
main branches, —dams, reservoirs, nl
ieady|constructed ditches, payment of
employees, and other expenses proper
ly belonging ami incident to tne con
struction and maintainanee of said
ditch.
And, said commissioners shall have
full power to appoint, pay or discharge
from service, ail employees who may
i>e required for the construction,
maintenance, and utilization of said
ditch.
And, said commissioners shall have
authority to condemn and t ike posses
sion of all lands and other property re
quired for the construction of said
ilitchs, etc.
Provided, That no man's property
shall be taken without paying an equi
table price therefor, said value to be
provided by law, for fixing the value
of lands taken for county roads, rail
roads, etc.
4. No person shall he permitted to
vote at an election of Water Commis
sioners, except such persons whose
property pay taxes for the construc
tion Of said ditch, but, each taxpayer
shall have one vote for each Kit) acres,
or fraction of 100 acres, or other prop
erty of similar assessable value upon
which he or she pays taxes for or on
account of said ditch, arid vote to be
voted by them or their legal represen
tatives, it being understood that it is
the property and not tbe person that
is represented by the vote.
o. Said Water Commissioners shall
be authorized to direct tbe distribution
of the water, and fix the rates at
which it shall be sold, charging a
suhiciont amount to enable them to
pay the current expenses of the ditch
and ordinary repairs, but in ease ex
traordinary repairs are required, a
pro-rata tax shall be levied as hereto
uire, to pay for the same. Provided
that before any tax js levied, local no
tice shall be given to all who are au
thorized to vote, and if a majority of
Ihe votes cast, shall be in favor of said
tax, It shall be levied, but if a major
ity shall vote against said tax, it shall
not be levied.
0. The law shall provide for impos
ing a heavy penalty both of line and
imprisonment upon any person or
persons, who shall willfully cut, dam
age, or in any way injure said ditches
or water flowing therein—provided
that if any person or persons acciden
tally, or unintentionally injure the
same, he shall be made to pay for
all damage caused by his act.
7. The law shall distinctly provide
that no person < r poisons shall be per
mitted to waste water that is or may
be wanted for irrigation, that all ar
tesian wells must be capped, if neces
sary to prevent the How of more wat ir
than is required for irrigation, domes
tic purposes, or watering stock, as it is
believed that uny useless llow, may he

an injury to the wells of their neigh
bors, and it is certainly a serious in
jury to the public roads; to enforce
this provision the law should provide
a penalty for each Infraction of the law
of sufficient amount to ensure its effi-
ciency.
I wish to call particular attention to
article 4th. Any etlieieiit law that is
baaed upon the principle therein on
nunclated, viz., properly and notper
sonal representation! 1 feel perfectly
confident will enable us to do well, and
promptly, all that we desire to do. No
man will fear excessive taxat ion, when
the property itself imposes the tax.
A careful reading of the forgoing
will satisfy any reasonable person that
there Is nodlsposition to interfere with
''Vested rights," but on the contrary
there is a very strong determination
to abrogate and do away with "vested
wrongs." My idea is to have a law
that will enable the property owners of
each district to form an Involuntary
Join! Stovl; Company, and to compel
every piece of property to pay its
share of a needed improvement. If a
majority of the property owners vote
in favor of tin; tax, it is safe to suppose
that the Improvement is needed, if the
vole is against it, it is safe to suppose
that it is not.
This world must move on, no
"balky mule" can be permitted to
stop the cir of Progress; all who op
jofe its onward movement, must he
crushed as relentlessly as are the
miserable victims of a degraded su
perstition under the wheels of the ear
of Juggernaut.
These are my views of what the law
should endeavor to efl'eet. I put it be
fore the public in order to elicit
criticism and discussion. Some one
must make the tlrst move, and I make
It —there is no time to be lost; let every
man who hus an opinion of tiis oiett
put il on paper, and send it in. "In the
multitude of counsellors there is wis
dom." We want not only strong and
efficient law, but we want the very
best law, that can be made; we want
neither State, nor county aid; all we
want is a law that will enable us to
act we can do the work ourselves. I
remain yours, very respectfully.
Wm. B. Olden.
Member of the Committee on Irri
gation.
THE CURSE OF CALIFORNIA.
The following from the Chicago
Post, covers the whole ground, and ex
plains our views to a nicety:
A Washington dispatch mentions
the issue from the General Law Oflicc
of a patent for an old Mexican grant in
California! covering six square leagues
in San Luis Obispo county. It is add
ed that there are now only two of
these Mexican grant claims on the
docket at Washington, but about a
hundred and fifty Of them are still to
come up, being delayed awaiting sur
veys or other formalities in California.
Congress could not do a better thing
for that State than to take such action
as may be necessary to smnmarialy
squelch these claims, nine-tenths of
which are utterly fraudulent, either by
Indemnifying the honest claimants to
a moderate amount and sending the
dishonest ones to the penitentiary or
in any other feasible and|constitutibnal
fashion. And in addition to that,
there should be legislation, either state
or national, to compel the cutting up
of the six or seven hundred great
ranches, the claims Of which have al
ready been confirmed. Land monopo
ly is even a worse curse to California
than railroad grabs, and she cannot
hope for anything like substantial
prosperity and rapid development un
til the system which puts whole coun
ties into the hands of single grantees,
and renders it impossible for the culti
vators of the soil to become its owners,
Is completely abolished. Canada, a
dozen years ago, found herself com
pelled to abolish the seignoral tenure,
iv order to get rid of a simliar nuis
ance. It is a wretchedly poor policy
which surrenders the soil of a new
American State to a system which he
longs to a long-past age, and of which
older communities have had serious
trouble In relieving themselves.
COMPULSORY EDUCATION.
We are Informed that the Superin
tendent' of Public Instruction of the
State, in his next report to the Gover
norof California, will recommend and
advocate the adoption of the system
of compulsory education for the chil
dren of all colors and races. It seems
that .'lO per cent, of the children of for
eign parents, specially those of Cath
olics and Pagans, ever attend the
schools, and the security and well
being of society demand a different
system.
Inasmuch as we are ardent advocates
ofthe dissemination of instruction
amoilgst all classes of society
equally, under the conviction that
universal education must be the
result, and that this will bring at no
remote period the general happiness of
all humanity, we cannot but .rejoice at
the determination of the Superinten
dent of Public Instruction of the State,
and we hope that he will carry it out
as soon as possible. No man has a
right to bo ignorant when his igno
rance may be injurious to his fellow
beings.—[ La Cronica.

OF
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD.
The first of October, TBK Los AXOSLM HKR-
At.n, a daily and weekly newspniier, will
make its appearance. The Dally will be a
neat and tastily printed seven-column news
paper, newsy rather than literary iv charac
ter. Tiie Weekly will be a six-column, eight
page paper, and will contain the most Impor
tant matter that has previously appeared in
Thk Daily Hkkalh.
It is proposed that the HiatAl.li shall lie an
nn bought udvoeate of every Interest pertain
ing to Southern California and Arizona,and
a zealous worker In all things that shall tend
to hencllt. the State. In a word il will be in
close communion with Ihe people. In Its col
umns, from time to time will he lon ml mat
ters of Interest to the California Farmer, Me
chanic, Merchant, Lanoree, ami nil classes of
Producers; and it will also contain reading
matter suited to the Home Circle.
The HmtAl.li will bean Independent Demo
cratic journal and its efforts directed to sweep
ing from power and place I hose now misman
aging the a flairs ofthe Nation. For t lie accom
plishmentof thisend, it will hail with satisfac
tion the co-operation of the membenof all Par
tics, believing that the prosperity, perhaps
safety, ol'the Nation depends upon the success
Ofa movement of this character. It Is "reform
now or revolution hereafter."
The Hkuai.n will auvocate State Rights and
oppose Centralisation; it wiil encourage White
and oppose Coolie Imiiiigratien. II will favor
Free Trade, and oppose Protective Tariff; it
will advocate a Greenback Currency for Call
I'ornln, and oppose the i • esent dwarllng and
deadening policy which upholds the present
rwinous rates of interest and shuts out Eastern
capital. It. will udvoeate the People and op
pos.t Monopolies, no mailer what guise they
may assume.
While the llKKAI.l) will treat Slavery as a
dead issue, It will earnestly advocate the
light Of every State, be it Norl hern or South
ern—Massachusetts or South ('arolinu -lo gov
ern Itself in accordance with the wishes of Its
people,and the dictates ofthe Federal Con
stitution, without national interference.
The Hkkai.l) will opppse thieving and pecu

he earns it. Every dollar which is taken
from the public treasury or privet" purse
without a Just return Is robbery, and he who
takes this money Is a thief. Believing I his,
the Hkuai.n will oppose salary s ents, custom
