The Spring Street Railroad.

Most of the property on the line OF
the Spring Street Railroad has in
creased in value about twenty per
cent, and some tracts even hundred
per cent. Even at these increased
figures, property along the line of the
road is selling much more readily
than in any other part of the city. A
few more such enterprises as this rail-
road has turned out to be will greatly
increase the value of property all over
the city, and be the means of bringing
many new citizens here to reside.
An instance has lately come to our
knowledge which is we'll worth giving
in this connection. Two gentlemen of
considerable means came here from
the East to see if it was worth while
to start store. They had concluded
that it would not be paying invest
ment and were on the point of leaving
for elsewhere, when they heard of the
road to be built and concluded to re-
main here and open a store.
A few more such instances as this
would probably convince most of our
"chronic croakers' that little more
energy in our city will be of great
practical benefit. Who will be the
first to start another road? Don't all
of YOU speak at once!

New Homestead Law.

The proposed new homestead bill
contains the following among other
features: 1t requires actual settlement
and cultivation for five years, after
which, on due proof thereof, the settler
can obtain title to 100 acres of land,
the whole cost of which will be $40 on
the entry of the land and SIS on the
final proof. If, however, the settler
wishes to obtain title earlier than
five years, he can do so at the end of
eighteen months on payment of the
price of the land. 1t is thought that
eighteen months for settlement would
make such an improvement as would
keep lands under cultivation there
after. A special bill to provide for the
sale of timber lands is being prepared.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-03-28
The Local Option Bill.

Quite an interesting debate was had
in the Assembly on Saturday last, on
the local option bill. 1t passed the
Assembly by most decided majority.
That our people may have a knowl-
edge of the new powers vested in them
by virtue of the provisions of this bill,
we will present its prominent fea-
lures.
Section /. From and after the
passage of this act, whenever one
fourth the number of legal voters of
any township, incorporated city or
town shall petition the Board of
Supervisors of such county, or the
county wherein such township incor-
porated city or town is situated. to
call special election to vote upon the
'liquor license or ono liquor
license" the Board of Supervisors of
the county receiving said petition
shall, within one month after said
petition is filed with the Clerk of said
Board, make proclamation of the hold
ing of said election in the township,
incorporated city or town, as may be
asked for in such petition.
AS the bill was Senate bill and had
been passed by that body, it now only
remains for our chief magistrate to
give it his signature to make it a law.

plish in the most perfect and substantial man.
ner, as has been substantiated within the last
few years by kindred societies; and that, too,
with an expense so light that it has proved
not to be u burden upon its members, which
not only increases its popularity, but brings it
within reach of those most needing its protec-
ton and aid.
Any person, male or female, may become a
member of this association If in good health
and over eighteen and under fifty years of age.
On proof OF the death of a member of the

abatement of assessments.
In case ofdeath, we send a notice to each
member. We shall have agents in each town
to receive the assessments and save members
the trouble of sending direct to the Secretary.
The Association, as well as its f1nds, is under
the control ola Board of eleven Directors, who
are elected annually by the members OF
the Association /; it is also incorporated UNI
der the Civil Code of the State, which code
does not allow any funds to be used for pur-
poses other than set forth in the Bylaws

quired to give heavy bonds for the faithful
performance of their duties

receive no compensation whatever for their
services, except the Secretary, who is simply
paid for keeping the books of the Association

funds of the Association draw, and they can
deposit such amounts as they may desire on
advance payments or as an endowment fund
for future years without risk or forfeiture
whether one or more deposit.
The Association is designed to save money
not to spend it. None will feel poorer for be-
longing to it, while many will bless the day
that their father, mother, husband, or brother
Joined it.

is necessary in order to secure a membership:

LETTER FROM SANTA BARBARA.

EDITORS HERALD: Santa Barbara
is filled to overlooking with health and
pleasure-seekers. All the hotels and
boarding-houses are crowded, and
many persons have been turned away
for want of room. 1t is hoped that our
rain is nearly over, and that the fine
weather has at last set in. We have
been having very strange weather for
Santa Barbara the greater part of the
Winter.
The election to take place on Mon
day, April 9th, will be the first under
the city charter. There will be a
grand mass meeting of citizens at Lo-
beros Theater, the afternoon of March
31st, at o'clock, for the purpose of
nominating city officers for the ensu-
ing year. Political matters are already
getting pretty warm, and it is eX-
pected there will be close run be-
tween the regular candidates, whoever
they may be, and the independent
ticket.
Building is progressing vigorously
in various parts of town. Chas. Pierce
is putting up fine two-stOry IRON
front brick building on State street,
adjoining the Lion Drugstore. 1t is
understood that Thos. B. Dibble in
tends building a brick block on the up
per part of State street, on portion of
the estate of Judge de la Guerra. E. j..
Knapp, of the late firm of Stevens &
Knapp, has erected wooden building
on the upper part of State street, to be
used as an agricultural implement
warehouse, where Mr.. Knapp intends
keeping large and varied assortment.
Such an establishment has long been
needed in Santa Barbara and we wish
Mr.. Knapp the best of success.
The feed in the upper part of the
county is reported to be quite short;
but with warm Spring rain and clear
weather, there will probably be an
abundance of feed till late in the Fall.
