CALIFORNIA; INCOG-
NITA,

Mr.. Bancroft, the Pacific Coast
historian, says in his second Vol. on
California. The Spanish occupation
of California was limited to a mar
row strip Of territory along the
coast from San Francisco to San
Diego. Soledad, their most inland
establishment, was not over thirty
miles sea. The vast interior was a
terra incognita, frequently spoken
of as such in official documents.
The extreme south, the modern
county Of San Diego, was much
better known than the inland re-
gions north. In IVA Juan Bau-
tista de ANA came. from the Color
ado River to San Gabriel diagonally
across the country from southeast
to northwest, by a route practically
the same as that now followed by
the Southern Pacific Railroad. In
1775-76 ANA brought colony
to California by the same route.
In connection with this expedition
Father Francisco Garces made
some extensive and important ex-
plorations a little further north.
He went up to the Colorado to the
Mojaye region, and crossed west.
ward by the thirty-ffth parallel
and Mojave River to San Gabriel
then proceeding north-ward he ira
yersed the since famous mountain
passes into the great Tulare Valley
nearly reaching the latitude Of Tu
lare Lake; and finally he passed
out of the valley eastward and re-
turned along the thirty-ffth paral
lei to the Colorado. Garces hao
thus explored what is now Kerr
and San Bernardino counties: bu
though his diary was preserved II
Mexico, and the results Of his ex
ploration were preservedin Fonts
map, yet these results, never wei
known, were soon completely for
gotten in California. In 178.
Rivera's colony was brought from
the Colorado by Gonzales and Ar
guello over Anza's old route, ant
during this and the following yea
that route was many times followed
backward and forward in connec
ton with the disastrous events
at the Colorado River missions
In one of these expeditions Pedro
FACES took more direct route ia
Their south from the ella across thu
mountains to San Diego.

A gentleman who said he had just crossed Arizona on horseback, found sh anxious auditor ih Q St, Lotus Re. publican reporter, who in a very Short space of time reduced to writing an infinite deal of gammon and many bald-faced stories concerning this Ter ritory, its people, Gen Crook and the Chiricahuas, whiehif not instructive, is amusing to Afizonans whose knowl. edge of the persons and things treated Of is sufficiently clear to take and relish the joke, The relator with apparent sang froid, injected into the ear of the reporter enough for two and half columns, which appeared in that paper of the 2sth ulk under startling head lines, with a view of Sndoring tue reader to mentally wade through worse than hardshsll Bap- tst sermon of the whang-dBodle order. As an illustration we win give q sim gle quotation in order that the reader may judge of the leavened lump of "A Travellers Tale So prick pp your ears that the tympanum may Se tickled by the jest, We quote: If Crook had been in charge of tue Apaehes (Chiricahuas) they would nave been self.supportiug by thls time. have seen their farms with my own eyes, and tell you they showed wonderful amount of work, and all of it done with the poorest klnd of implements--pocket knives, sticks hardened in tho fire and such. 2 And "sGcb, in this connection, does not mean hoes, blows and other agri- cultural tools which are the imple. ments furnished the Apaehes by the government
 After this exhibition of unalloyed humor, it becomes a matter of intarest to know when the "traveler on horse back across Arlzona" will resume tho narrative of his journey, and again afford Arizonans an opportunity t. laugh at his jokes
 Since writing the above, we hay, deemed It neceaaey to directly clinel as . lie the statement that "a cattlt ring leased a large corner of the Sal Carlos reservation" l." There IS no even shadow on which to build statement to that effect. i close read ing of "A Travellers Tale, " must con vince any cue that it eminates from military source, and is especially in tended to glorify Crook, zs he Is tn burthen of the writer's song,

H. c. Burehard, late a director of the U. s. mint, places the production of gold and silver in Arizona during the years 1881 -82.83-S4 at $25, ,505, 900. In 1885 the production was slightly below those figures, while the present year is expected to be in excess of 1882, the largest output of any of tho former enumerated years. Copper, one of Auzona's largest metallurgic factors. if added to the gold and silver production, would render the value of her output sstonishingly large.
