MAS Progress

was day devoted to the work of endeavOr-
Ing to make some disposition Of the cataract
Of communications with which the commits
sion has been inundated
These documents are Of all conceivable.
rs we'll as Of many inc0nceiyable. kinds.
Mixed with mass Of practicable PROPOSE
tons there is a great drift OF vagaries float
ing on the stream Of communications pour
ing into the Secretary's office.
The desire TO get hold of some Of the
money appropriated by the State for
credltable exhibit at Chicago seems to be
the ruling passion with nine-tenths Of the
correspondents.
TREES FOR SALE.
s man from Salinas named W. j. Clark
has a hedge 500 feet long composed of two
year old trees, which he Will periodically
turn over to the commission for s. a tree,
but Commissioner Hatch happens to know
the value of trees, and 50 Mr.. Clark misses
his market on al adverse report from that
commissioner.
John Hatch, If allowed $4,000, thinks he
can get up a mine and mining" display.
This proposition was turned over 10 a COM
mi-tee for artificial incubation.

the inside walls of the California Building

suggestion was embodied in the following
resolution ed by Commissioner Pie
