"A ter of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara, becomes known to the world

growing interest in this region should be

points of interest to tourists, invalidS and
hOme-seekers, which we are now able to do

While the PRESS seeks to promote the
prosperity of all Southern California by all le-
Ultimate and honorable methods, it is more
directly interested in the growth and coming
greatness of Santa Barbara. The unequaled
loveliness of the climate, its almost incredible
healthfulness, the beauty of the scenery, the
wondrous variety and fertility of the soil, the
almost unlimited range of products which
flourish there without irrigation, will be
known from time to time by facts which can
not be controyerted, in the columns of the
PRESS. Any intelligent person can become

Hon. Geo. II. PendletOn.

Hon. Geo. III. Pendleton, of Ohio,
one of the great leaders of Democracy
and one Of the purest statesmen and
patriots of the land thus defines the
meaning of Democracy. If there be
any lover of his country, who can offer
a feasible objection to these great prin-
ciples, we should like TO hear him:
1t is obedience TO the constitution
and the laws; equality before the law
and faithful administration of the law (;
the largest liberty consistent with
public order; equal and exact justice
to all men; honesty and fidelity in
every Office reform wherever there is
abuse: no sumptuary laws; taxation
only for revenue; subject to revenue
free trade; gold and silver the basis
of the currency, and specie payments
to be reached as soon as industry will
permit honest payments of all debts
and sacred preservation Of public
faith; simple government; home rule !:
State rights small expenditures low
taxation; lands to actual settlers /;
homestead exemptions, and a heart
which can always feel for the struggles
and sufferings Of labor, and would
shape every policy as far as possible to
relieve it from the burdens which op-
press it.

Going TO Texas.

1t is passing strange that so many
citizens of Tennessee take the Texas
fever" every autumn, from which they
recover only after having expended all
their valuable means and getting safe

homes, where they have to reeommence
the battle of life minus everything

pie learn that, if they could be con-
tent, they have the best country in the
world, and need not contribute all
they have to the Golfers of railroad

fact. It is thus that hundreds of

An ImpractieabIe immigration Scheme

We are glad to notice that Messrs.
Charlton and Maxwell, of the State
Grange, and j. b. Killebrew, Secre-
tary of the State Board of Agricul-
ture, are taking renewed interest in
the subject of immigration. This il
as it should be. Within the next two
years much can be done to induce a
heavy immigration to Tennessee, if the
Legislature and people who own large
bodies of land in the State will only
co operate. 1t is useless for us to at
tempt to compete with the Western
States for immigrants unless we have
the land to settle them upon. That is
the first reqisite. We suggest, there
fore, that the State Board acquire By
purchase or donation, or both, unoc-
cupied lands to the extent of not less
than one hundred thousand acres in
one neighborhood. which lands should
be divided so that one-half might be
settled by immigrants free, the re-
mainder being held for such apprecia-
ton in value as would reimburse the
State for the WHOLE and all attending
expenses. By this means immigrants
through an immigration agent, TO be
stationed at New York, could be had
in numbers, and of such character to
satisfy the want we feel of labor and
population. We have the soil and the
climate, and only need the energy of
skilled and willing labor to realize for
us everywhere in Tennessee all the
blessings of steady growth and perma-
nent prosperity. Will Mr.. Killebrew
not give our suggestions his attention,
and press it or its equivalent upon the
Legislature so soon to assemble P

Railroad Progress.

In past ages, mechanical power die
well enough-it built cities and pyra.
mids, aqueducts, aud canals-the wa
ter-wheel moved the machinery at.
taehed to 1.-THE stage-coach tumbled
its passengers along contented with the
the slow pace, though not always com.
fortabie-the merchant cheerfully
committed his goods to the sail-yessel
because he knew of no more powerful
agent than wind. But the human
mind received new impulse-it is
filled with the great idea of progress,
and nothing has contributed more to
wake up the mind than the invention
of the steam engine. This event oc-
CURED 100 years ago, and the name of
the inventor is immortal. Watt was
raised up to invent the steam engine,
to toll for man in thousand forms of
drudgery-the earth, with the steam
engine in it, aiding the industry and
multiplying the comforts of mankind,
is a new earth-far better for the uni
versal prevalence of knowledge and
liberty.
Forty years ago, the first successful
experiment was made with the To-
comotive. Now We can hardly COM
pute the number Of railways. In 1919
the first steamboat landed at Nash
vile. In 1888 the Atlantic ocean was
first crossed by steamboat-now look
at the progress. The steamer ploughs
our rivers. our lakes, our coasts, and
asserts its supremacy from the Atlantic
to the indian Ocean.
To look at the railroad as simply the
auxiliary to cOmmerce-as a great
mint for coming money-is to take a
contracted view of it; for it is in truth,
a new and vast power intended by
Providence to act upon religion and
education-upon the civilization and
character Of nations in all the compli-
Gated interests of their social Organiza-
ton.
The invention and use of steam
power, aside from its bearing on wealth,
is its tendency to heal up the wounds
inflicted upon the country, by selfish
and ambitious politicians, aud unite
more closely the PEOPLE of the States
bringing them into more intimate
relations, and subjecting them to the
influence of mutual intercourse.
Railroads will be the means to re-
store faternal relations, by uniting the
people, so that they will know no
south, no east, no west but one flag,
and all march under that to the music
of the Union. Extreme, sectional
party leaders will be retired to the
rear, and just, patriotic and conserva-
tive men broug ht to the front.
Emigration is making us heteroge-
neous mass-unlike in habits, language
and religion, and scattered over vast
territory IRON the Atlantic to the Pa
cifc. States formed out of such a
population, thus widely dispersed,
cannot be held together and consoli-
dated by military power alone-sec-
tional interests and jealousies will
spring up, against which the Constitu-
ton and brute force will form no bar
rier Our only hope is in the general
diffusion of education, and the kind
and frequent intercourse which the
railway is calculated to produce
bringing the distant portions of the
country in the relation of neighbor-
hood.-He,,dersoa Tenn Adrocate.
