~ ter of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara becomes known to the world,
it is not surprising that widespread and

awakened. 1t is the constant aim of the Press
to furnish perfectly reliable information on al
points of interest to tourists, invalidS and
home-seekers, which we are now able to do
with greatly increased facilities. ''''it
While the PRESS seeks to promote the
prosperity of all Southern California by all L.
climate and honorable methods, IL Is more
directly interested in the growth and coming
greatness of Santa Barbara. The unequaleu
loneliness OF the climate, its almost Incredible
healthfulness, the beauty of the scenery, tn
wondrous variety and fertility of the soil, til
almost unlimited range of products whic
flourish there without irrigation, will b
known from time to time by facts which can
not be controverted, in the columns of the

Rrcn Ixcurs. The San Francis,

RIcn IxcnEs. The San Francisco
Ala, speaking Of the enormous yield Of
the Crown Point and Bslchsr ore body,
gives the following very interesting sta
t~istics:
These two wonderful mines, the
Crown Point and Belchsr. have given In
the four years now about closing an
amount Of ore little appreciated BY the
public. The gross product has been up
TO this time $i5, 973, 200, or $5.473 per
inch Of the ore length. The line b.
tween the Belchsr and Crown Point cuts
the ore body nearly In the middle. and
there are about 200 feet Of ore from its
north point in the Crown Point TO the
south point In the Belcher. The ore
body, being thus 700 feet long, has been
worked down in both mines from the
900-foot level to the 400, inclusive, and
has given as, 973, 200. In 100 feet
there are $500 linear inches; the pro-
duct has been, therefore, S5,473 per
inch. This, in round Numbers, $l6,-
000. 900. which has been taken out Of
The earth and poured upon this market
in the last four years, one-half in divi-
dends and one-half in wages.

A New Paper.

From the Silver State. November itth.l
Il IL reported that efforts are being
made to start o frst-class daily news
paper at Carson City. to DO run In the
interest Of the Democrats party. The
party ought to have such . paper at the
Capital. but II Is our opinion that II can
not DO made o financial success. II Is
the local advertisements that sustain .
newspaper In the main. The business
Of Carson and vicinity will not justify
the publishing OF q frst-class nows-
paper. We do not mean 10 say that the
appeal and Tribune are not first-class :
they are arst-class Of the End-but, oh!
the kind. Western Nevada, and indeed
all Nevada. has now q surfsit Of news
papers. II requires peculiar and first
class brains TO successfully run . first
class newspaper for any party. The
temper Of the people is such just now
TO warrant the conclusion that n par
tisan paper will be sustained by the peo-
pie Of this State except the local paperl;
and the local support OF Carson and vi.
cinity In not sufficient TO sustain the
contemplated newspaper thirty days. Its
patronage outside Of Its immediate vi
cinity will be very limited. for every To-
cality whero a paper Ia needed il now
supplied with one or moro papers Of it,
own. Besides the State il flooded with
daily newspapers Of every kind and de-
scriPtion. religious cresds and party poll
tics, from nearly all the large cities OF
tho Union. Nevada papers can COM
pete with these papers In brains, but
cannot compete with them In low prices;
hence foreign newspaper have, We
doubt not, as large a circulation In this
State as our own local papers. The
Democratic party has made several un-
successful attempts 10 establish q first
class newspaper In Virginia City, and II
Is yet to be determined whether such .
thing Is practicable there. wenow have

State. II either shall DO able to keep its

in Storey county. Then unless sono
man or set Of men have more shares In
the Consolidated Virginia, Bslcher or
Grown Point than they can conveniently
manage for themselves. we advise them
not to start the contemplated paper.
