And fraught with weighty interests and
possibilities.

| next and, from present indications, it will
| be largely attended This part Of the State
that is, nearly all north and east of Sacra-

years b. immigration bureaus. and some
! systematic action is needed to bring it into
| that prominence to which its merits en-
title it"
