To Divide California.

San Francisco letter: Representative
VandeFveer's b:l. for division OF Cali
;fornia into two states is not causing as
much enthusiam in the southern part of
the state as its author anticipated. The
leading men OF that section are generally
in fhvor OF it, but the idea is so neY co
the majority OF the citizens that il it
were put to vote it would not be car
fied. There is a generous rivalry between
the N on OF both sections in many Dur-
suits, but there ls an intense love OF the
state, which predominates and tempers
down all ssperitleB. OF course it is not
denied that southern California lacks
full representation according to popuia-
tIoa, but this is the result OF
the clnmsiness of the apportioii-
ment laws, which determine the
representation upon the basis OF the de-
cennIal census. The immigration into
southern California for the past eix
years has greatly exceeded that into
northern Ca,ifornis, and this has resulted
liz apparent injustice, bus that is o
temporary evil which remedies itself.
What may be in the future / cannot say,
but at present ii is certain that Mr..
Vanderveer's bill does NOT represent the
popular wish. We of the north would
make no fight, for IL our friends wish to
leave Us it would be foolish to work
against their wishes, and we would
rather have them as good
neighbors than as unwilling and
unfriendlr citizens of the same
state. We have laughed occasionally as
their high ambitions, but we have never
failed to boom their products end chant
peans in honor of the immense pro-
eress made in San Bernardino and San
Diego. / cannot recall any thing really
inimical to their interests which was
ever even hinted at in San Francisco. At
present the division could not be made,
for southern California, though growing
fast, has relatively small population,
for the most part composed OF poor pee
pie, and there would be reeoil from the
burdens OF separate statehood.
