)UR immunity from cyclones alone

OUR immunity from cyclones alone
ought to insure California an I'M
precedented immigration during the
coming Fall and Winter, and continu-
ously thence forward. There is precious
little comfort in living in regions char
acterized by extremes of temperature,
but when to these drawbacks are added
appalling destruction OF life and prop
erty the argument in favor of region
like Southern California becomes really
irresistible. There are a great many
people who look for some memorable
calamity in the natural gas region of the
East. A leading citizen of Pittsburg
told the writer some time ago that the
extreme violence of the storms of thun-
der and lightning which has of late years
signalized the weather manifestations of
the erstwhile Smoky City" had deter
mined him to take up his home in Cali
fornia. He is one of myriads, and the
opening Fall months will witness the
arrival of the advance guard OF this
mighty army.

Crop Report.

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The condition
of winter wheat on the 1st OF April, re-
ported by the Statistician of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, averaged 81 for the
entire breadth; the general average for
rye is 92.8.
In the States of the central valleys the
recent frosts cut down the growing wheat
plants quite generally, and in wet or sub
merged areas the roots have been de-
stroyed. There are reports OF recupera-
ton by sprouting and renewed growth
in this region The Pacific Coast had an
extraordinary amount of rain and snow

ure or otherwise is estimated to average
1.64 for horses, 1854 for cattle, 7.3 for
sheep, and rs for swine. Reports indi-

IT Is pleasant to have the assurance Of
Mr.. Coils z. Huntington that the South
ern Pacific Railway Company, of which
he has just been elected President, will
hereafter take no hard in politics. A
great many Californians are imbued with
the idea, no doubt enormously, that Mr..
Huntington has himself, both on the
Pacific Coast and in Washington, occa-
sionally dabbled in politics, and very
potently at that. His published letters
OF date decade or so back have shown
quite as much interest as the patriotic
citizen should allow himself to take in
the political affairs of his neighbors and
friends. But we are now assured that a
new leaf is to be turned over in such
matters, and that the rich and powerful
corporations OF which he is the head are
to attend strictly to the business OF earn
ing dividends and contributing to the
industrial and commercial well-being of
the communities through which their
railways run. There are many at one
time promising politicians in this State
who would have been delighted if this
conclusion had been reached earlier.

If THE southern counties of California
formed State, and had two United
States Senators and a couple OF Repre-
sentatives, it is astonishing how pleasant
things would be. When we wanted an
appropriation, or some other handy
thing, we should be pretty sure to get it.
Thus, Oregon is State and has two
United States Senators and, as result,
a bill has just been reported in the
Senate appropriating $2,34S, 600 for the
improvement of the Columbia river.
There is another advantage which we
would have if there were State of
South California, viz, we would be able
to keep our money at home instead of
sending it up to- Sacramento. What be-
tween the money we could cause to flow
into the southern counties from the
national treasury and our own boards,
there would soqh be no complaint about
the scarcity Of money hereabouts.
