ssCOm mon sense Applied to the Immigra ant
QuestiOn.v

We hare received pamphlet entitled as above.
from the pen of C. 7. Hopkins, President of
the California Immigrant pniohi corporation
avowedly for facilitating the settlement of this
State. The document is prepared With cohsid-
erable ability, and is calculated to awaken
spirit of inquiry concerning the best manner Of
promoting the ends sought. Facts and figures
are given which indicate that the writer has de-
voted time and research to the subject, and
which not only interesting, but worthy Of
examination. We agree that agriculture, man
ufactures and commerce must of necessity con-
sttute the leading interests, and that the true
policy is to foster and encourage them. Fur
ther, the best way is to build up agriculture in
every possible way. At the same time we think
it equally plain that the mining interest is far
from being insignificant and must continue so
to be for generations to come. Mr.. Hopkins errs,
in our opinion, in striving to show that mining
is Improbable and in this particular rides his
hobby not only too fast, but further than the
argument requires. The agricultural interest is
not exalted or its Importance shown by dis
paragement of the mines. In this view the de-
monstration fails. The figures given do not war
rant the conclusions drawn, and the style of ar
gument is unfair The agricultural section has
contributed to the mining districts nothing.
Take from the cities and farming portion the
wealth directly and indirectly derived from the
mines, and place the amount to their credit, we
abapd hat fha UeD n c
statistics greatly at fault and varying widely
from the text. Common sense teaches that all
branches of business should be aided and that
they will thrive best by prosperng together
Time was when the mines were the sole source
of business. Now they are not, but their devel-
opment and working is everywhere benehcially
felt. They constitute an important branch of
industry and deserve recognition and aid as such
Looking at Mr.. Hopkins propositions in another
light it occurs to US that about the only reason
able way of accounting for this apparent unfair
ness is, to suppose that they are adduced in the
interest of land spectators. We cannot other
wise perceive any plausible explanation for this
attempt to dissuade people from going to the
"let every tub stand ON its own bottom" will
well apply here. Those who adopt mining do
SO because it seems to them preferable, and the
same holds good with all other occupations.
The number of mining enterprises now in oper
alton, and representing vast amount of capital,
show conclusively that all statements to the eff
feet that the mining interests of the State of
are deliberate misrepresentation for purpose.
The author having travelled out of his way to
attack the mining section of this State, we think
it fairly deducible from the premises that the
pamphlet in question shows that the company in
whose interest it is written should be regarded
as large-sized "cat in meal tub"
