II has been deemed not necessary to fol-

the custom of many years, and review the
trade of Sacramento in detail. Ii now
rests on so firm 4 basis, and the advantages
of this market are so thoroughly and
widely appreciated and ayailed Of that it
no longer needs auxiliary efforts to direct
attention to it. We have devoted the five
or six columns usually given to the sub
jet to papers Of broad interest and deep
importance Yet an examination Of trade
statistics has been made for the preserva-
ton Of the annual historical data of the
commerce Of the city. From these it de-
velops that while business has steadily
declined in competing cities, Sacramento's
trade has not, in year Of very consider
able dizziness in the State, lost ground
She has not only held her own" but has
made advances. Her aggregate trade
reaches nearly S47,Oo0,oOO The trade
area has not only not been mar
rowed, but has expanded. While
there have been losses of custom in one
direction there have been compensating
gains in another There has not been the
advancement and prosperity in business
that was desirable, but our commercial
situation is far better to-day than that of
any Pacific coast city, the amount of CAPT
tai invested being taken into consideration.
Practically no capital has been withdrawn
from merchandising the jobbing trade
has been marked by no commercial fail
ures and, in fact, but two failures of any
kind have taken place, and those in the
retail trade, and resumption in one case
speedily followed There has been here,
