trsa- distance from other ceHiers The
id.ers caneot get away, owing maiuly to
high railroad fare. The wheat crop has
bees partial failure, AMI the fruii crop,
espeti.liy in Los Augeie', has been al
most an entire failure. California has
had tvo succe siye "dry years." and
third one wilaImo bankrupt the Siase.
Mar y who can leave without great loss
are doing 80, and ii there is another 'dry
year" the exodus will be general. Mr.
Moore ADVISES tho, o VINO are doing niod-
G a'tiy vel, in the East to stay there
lie ,hfn.ss Calilcrais is o well advertised
State.
The first lie IS in tating that business
is dull in C1lif.nia Business through.
ont the st.ts is very brisk, a.d the
go.urie of trade Is greater than ever be-
FIRE. The sales Of real sstte are Le-
yond all precedent More virgin soil
will be plo~ed in Cilifornis in the win
ter Of SO and "a than ever before in the
history Of the State. The increase in acre
age Of plowed land in the single county
of Los Angeles will be 5000 acres in
1884. Twice as many houses were built
ia 1888 as in any former year. ard twice
as many trees and vines planted.
As to the number of Idle men in San
Francisco. that als1 is false. Labor Is
in great demand in all parts Of the State,
and any man in Sai Francisco who
wants to work. can easily find way to
the agricultural districts where labor is
always in demand. The wheat crop,
although not the heaviest last year, was
larger per acre than in Indiana, Illinois
or Ohio.
As to the fruit crop Of Los Angeles,
last year, although some varieties were
short, as !. was an ''off yea tie c-op
brought more money thal it cvei
brought bef r., aud the frlt-gr "
are going forward with great en.rgy :.
their planting AM improvements.
AS to d-g season', there HIS been bat
one dty saason in tae la { el3ssn years,
and in that year there was no distress OF
complaining in oar streets. The state
ment that we have hal two dry seasons,
is false in too Tie crops have been
good every yoar f5r slsvea years past,
with the exception Of oaa season, which
is better average than aly Other
country can show during that pc Rod O.
time. Instead of people trying to gel
away from California, the oppofie il
the fact. The immigration to this S.aii
is large and constan'. and s ealily IN
creasirg. Such lars as w. c. Moore
may be Of some use samewher
but W. have n, use for them lere
The truth il all taat il need {
in this latitude and orgitude, and Wit
that we are content. Mr. Moore adviss
peo: Il to stay at h ,me IA her than com
to California. II the people that he ca;
influence are Ike hin, we sincerely hol,
they will stop 1t home. Caliiorni, is n,
place for them. The fruit-growers o
Los Angles aid San 2 rnard.ro c5un
tie-, are now making four times th'
prof. from th,ir laid that the farmer
Of Illinois arc making and have no de
sire to get away. II this fellow know
OF any farmers who are anxious to ge
away from this part Of the country
they can srli out at a good advance a
any tine; bat somehow or other they d'
not want to sell at all, Mr.. Moore to thu
