WE clip the following interest
ing items from the Santa Monica
Outlook, one of our most welcome
exchanges, and we think the best
paper published this side of San
Francisco.
The Southern Pacific RailrOd
Company announce their determi-
nation to push on Eastward
through Arizona as speedily as
possible. General Cotton remark
ed to reporter the other day:
We are we'll equipped for rail-
road building, and no ordinary
obstacle shall stop us. If we get
permission to extend our line east
of the Colorado, and the assistance
which we need from Congress,
we shall be at Ell Paso in Texas in
three years. I say "three years."
but believe we can do it in much
less time than that. No railroad
company in the world has such
facilities for railroad construction
as we have now, with our trained
officers and disciplined workmen.
There were seventeen through
passengers on the overland train,
last Monday, from San Francisco
to Los Angeles. The steamer An
con which left about the same
time, landed ninety at Santa Mon
lea for the same destination. It
appears from this that SIP diff
ference in the cost of passage is of
some Importance to the travelling
public.
All parties who have been fish.
ing down at the wharf during the
past week have had extraordinary
luck. Thousands of fish (princi-
pally mackereD have been caught,
and few have been so unfortunate
as not to get all they wanted.
We now have excellent hunting,
in the vicinity of Santa Monica.
The canyons are alive with quail,
the lagoons and beach with snipe
and curlew, and we are told the
deer are quite numerous in the
mountains.
The fare to San Francisco per
rail and steamer, via Santa MonI-
ca, is only $13. while the same
class of passage, per rail, costs $25.
But there is the much dreaded
sea-sickness, some contend. It is
true. some get sick; but when we
consider the general scarcity oil
coin, there are great many who
can well afford to "throw UP" a
little for that amount Of money.
