the 9th of September, 1884, the order

the State Fair was in session, and was at
tended by an immense throng, and was in
every way most eminent success. In
1885, Admission Day was celebrated by
the Native Sons at Santa Rosa, which
celebration was more extended in its ap-
pointments than that of any previous
year, and this observance was even eclipsed
by the same order in the honor paid by it
to the 9th of September, 1886, at San Jose.
Last year Admission Day was celebrated
by the order at Napa, where the ceremo-
nies were elaborate in detail, and wit

congregated in that city. The celebration

1t is eminently proper that Admission

public holiday. 1t is fitting on this day,
IN honor of an event of great State i'm

tlvlties and observances of the anniversary
While to the chosen men of the East, the
selected hard and adventurous of the fifth
and sixth decades of the century. is due
the credit of laying the foundations of the
new empire of freedom, energy and en-
lightment, it is in keeping with the senti-
ment Of the hour, that the young men of
the era, the sops native to the soil, should,
with fitting ceremonial-with song and
martial music, with professions and way
ing banners, with feast and joyful acclaim
celebrate the recurrence of an anniver-
sary that secured to them the richest and
falrest heritage bestowed upon any youth.
They were not upon the stage of action

they hewed not the way nor carved out

place in the sisterhood of States but they
treasure the memories of the men of
energy and prescience who have made
California what it is and with commend
able pride they to-day honor their achieve
ments, while felicitating themselves upon
the happy fate that cast their lot on these

history of this State, has well said
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-09-10

The American community i'll early California
fairly represented the average national culture
and character. No other part of our land was
so rapidly peoped as was California in the first
golden days. Nowhere else were we Americans
more affected than here In our lives and con-
duct, by the feeling that we stood in the posi-
Ii n of conquerors in new land. Nowhere else
again, were we ever before so long forced by cir
cumstsnees to live at the mercy of q very way
ward chance. and TO give to even our most lesft-
imste business dangerously speculative char
scter. Nowhere else were we driven so hastily
to improvise a government for large body OF
strangers and nowhere else did fortune so
nearly deprive us for little time OF our natural
devotion to the duties of citizenship We Amer
leans therefore showed in early California new
failingS and new strength. We exhibited
novel deg ee of care!essaess and over-hastiness
an extravagant trust III luck q previously uIl-
known blindness to our social duties and an In
difference to the rights of foreigners whereof we
cannot be proud. But we also showed our best
national traits-trsits that went far to atone for
our faults. AS n body, our pioneer community
IN California was persisently cheerful, energetic
courageous and teachable. In few years 1t had.
repented for its graver faults it had endured
with charming good humor their severest pen
aities and 1t Was ready to begin with fresh de-
now at length iearned-the work # building
well-orSanlzad, permanent and progressive
State on the Pacific coast. In this work 1t has
been engsged ever since, with fortunes that al
ways, amid the IN st remarkable changes have
preserved n curious likeness to the fortunes of
the early days, and that, in numerous and re-
cent IN. taDces hrVe led to q more or less note
worthy and complete repetition of certain early
trials b!unders, sins penalties, virtues and trf
uuphs.
We can say to-day, looking back over
almost forty years OF California history.
that this is fair Judgment, and one we need
not fear to lay before the sons of the State

celebration of this anniversary has been
almost wholly committed. California has

has given to the world such matchless
example Of rapid State building, that with
all the errors fairly chargeable to us, our
people have reason to-day to devoutly
return thanks that to them has been given

CELEBRATION BY THE NATIVE SONS.
The frs. celebration of Admission Day
by the Order of the Native Sons took
place at Marysville on September 9.
1881, and was a great success. In 1889
there was no distinctive celebration by the
order, as the Native Sons of that year
joined with the Pioneers in doing honor
to the occasion. but in 1888 the order
again held forth, this time at Stockton
and rendered the occasion one of erea
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-09-10

full freedom the claim for her market Is in
great part based, for Sacramento isnot only
trader, but consumer.
Fifth-That the Sacramento merchant is
not dependent upon a sister market, but is
direct importer, and buys from first hand
Sixth-The location of the city is such
that it is natural distributing center, is
near to the mountains, in the waist belt of
the two great valleys of the State, advant-
aged by quick transit in all directions, and
the earliest connection by rail with the
great manufacturing and selling marts of
the East 1t enjoys, in addition, the ad-
vantage flowing from river transportation,
which is at once economic and regnlative
OF all other systems of carriage by reason
of the active competition it invites
Seyenth-As time is an essential ele-
ment in the handling Of trade supplies,
1t is shown that at this point, as against
all Others, the greatest rapidity of hand
ling is attainable. The business houses
are near to the lines of transportation;
there are no dock rates no long DELAYS
IN shipment. Orders from all over the
State arrive in this market so as to be
filled, and in most cases so as to have the
goods shipped on the same day. This ad-
vantage is enjoyed by no other market
of importance in the State. As against
this, goods from the Bay markets are
from two to four days later in delivery to
up-country points than from Sacramento.
The difference in the receipt of the order
is generally one day, the filling of it
another day, the transit of the goods as far
as Sacramento another, and often two
days.
Eighth-He who buys in Sacramento
saves a material percentage of freight as
against goods purchased in a more distant
! market. This item is often large and
always an important one, when margins
for profit are considered, and the fact given
due effect THAT in most lines the purchase
prices of commodities here is as low or less
than the prices in other markets.
But ARE PRICES AS Low?
The buyer will naturally ask. and will
most assuredly satisfy himself on that
point. But the reasons for the assertion
that they are low may be very eoneisely
stated, as las already been done in times
past:
No wharfage is paid here, and this item,
which always finds its way to the debit
side of the purchasers account in one way
or another in all markets reached over
wharyes, is one Of large interest 10 the
purchaser.
Drayage is, in most cases, of too small
