\ CALIFORNIA PoNFEu-California boasts

thither. 200 900 feet Of the land being
taken up IN the summer of that year. BY
spring OF the next year the Caliiornians had
become perfectly wild over the golden pros
poets of the region, and during May and
June not less than 4 900 people found their
way up there, and the real estate went up
like a kite. siXty-by-eighty lots bringing
from 81 800 to s. 500. \ town OF 600 houses

in which there was some substance that
would not yield to the usual processes, and,
in addition, the snow was not unfrequently
twenty-five feet on level, terrible storms
being common a. latea a. June. All at once
the people saw that nature had played an
awful practical joke on them, ana they
abandoned the town so precipitately that a

\ GLOOMY FUTURE PROTESTED FOR CHl-
CACO.-Every bOdy admired the pluck with
which the people Of Chicago determined TO
begin the work Of rebuilding while the GIN
ders OF the city were vet hot. There was
universal desire to help them. Goods were
furnished TO the merchants on long credit
building materials were exempted from rev
enue duties, and money in enormous sums
was loaned for building purposes.
The new Chicago was built on borrowed
capital, and covered with mortgages. This
alone would have been heavy enough
for any community to stegger under, but
Chicago increased her difficulties by bad
management. An attempt was made to
change the business centre OF the city by
building business quarter where, before
the fire, business had never come.
This was resisted by holders Of property
near the old business centre, and measures
were taken to keep business where 1t had
always been. Hence issued 4 division Oi
Chicago into two hostile camps and the
dispersion OF business instead of it, concen-
tration.
Then there was mistake made in build
ing enormous hotels and stores. Had Chi
cago intended 10 be another New \ ork IN
the course of year or two, those gigantic
buildings might have been a wise invest
ment As it Is they have proved fatal
waste of money. The great hotels are never
filled, and scores of the great stores stand
empty. Ii seems inevitable that vast
amount of Chicago property must before
long be sold under foreclosure, to pass INTO
the hands of Eastern men who will Ind
