csived deep veneration for them.
They readily took to the cross and were
easily induced to kneel and adore the
emblem of Christianity. The Indians
who lived above the banks of the river
were very numerous, but divided into
small tribes and were often at war with
each other.
This ia the earliest account we have OF
the discovery of the mouth OF the COL
orsdo river, and the consequent dissipa-
tion of the error that Lower California
was an island. The realization OF this
fact at that very early period causes US
to wonder why Upper California was
left for over two centuries, in which the
race for discovery in the new world was
pushed to extremes. unexplored and
unsettled. Until the expedition OF the
Franciscan fathers under Junipero Ser
ra opened to the knowledge Of the out
side world the splendid region we now
occupy, California was terra incognita
to civilized mankind. Just think OF
it, that Arizona as far as Yuma had been
explored as early as 1888, and that it
was not till after the middle OF the 18th
century that the richest and most invit-
ing country on the continent wac re-
claimed from barbarism by the devoted
religious men whose remains repose in
the cemeteries of every mission from
Dolores and San Juan Bsutista TO San
Luis Rey and San Diego. When We re-
member, however. that the frat ex-
plorers and conquistadores were stimu-
lated in their researches by the greed OF
gold and were misled by the belief that
none would be found north of the arid
zone, we can we'll understand why
southwark the star OF exploration led
the way. How they were mistaken |
Tie gold mines of California have added
more yellow metal to the store of the
world than any of the provinces they
pilfered and oppressed till they left
them crushed and impoverished by their
cruel arms and insatiate rapaciJy.

Mining company, and D. M. Dubrsv-

ON their way to OAtalina for an outing.
Gold Rock is in San Diego county, 16
miles northweat Of Yuma. and six miles
north OF the station of Ogilbie, on the
Southern Pacific road. Ten months ago
it was nothing but prospect, now there
are over 100 men at work and the Golden
Gross has 40-stamp mill at work on 100
tons of ore day. The ore is very rich
as it yiells from $40 to 500 ton.
Several Los Angelica parties own the
mill, among whom are Thomas Fuller
and the Hedges brothers. All the ma
chinery and supplies go in from here.
During tho fall another mill will be put
up and the csmp promises to be one of
the hest yeA Adiacovsred. The more pros
pecting that is done the better it looks.
The ore 10 frss milling and the ledge is
extensive.
Mr.. Johnson, who is pioneer OF that
section, says it is the richest gold camp
on the coast today. Claims are getting
to bs very valuable.
In order to obtain water a three-inch

distance OF II miles, and the milling
company pump it up for use.

Protection for Home Labor Needed.

1t seems pity that Olympia had no.
body in nearly a score of applications
for the position of City Superintendent
of Schools, who was competent for
that position, and the Board had to
go clear to Blue Rapids, Kansas, for a
suitable man. II is the importation
of labor that has placed our country
amid the quicksands, and there seems
to be parity OF reasoning which ap-
plies in this instance. Home talent,
and home muscle and sinew should be
given the preference always. Those
who come to pioneer progress and who
suffer privations and pay taxes should
be entitled to some consideration,
other things being equal; and it can
not be said that there was not q quail.
fled applicant for the position outside
Of Kansas. The course of the board is
deservedly the subject of much criti-
cism, and they will learn in due time
that they have made as egregious o
blunder as was the importation of
Goals to Newcastle.

to secrete himself. Others were ad-
visea to leave the city to avoid trouble.

Whittier Are We Drifting?


There are three conspicuous classes

FIRST, the leaders, who living TO their
cause sery little to commend in their

wella, Who resemble flock Of sheep
III their blind alliance to the orders Of
their leaders. These men are cOnsci-
entious, so far a. intelligence give
them the ability to distinguish between
right and wrong and what is wise and
what is unwise. They are men who
il given control OF business, ineyita-
Wy fail; men who must work under a
master to achieve 4 reasonable degree
Of success The third class is the
tramp element, which is never salts
fled with steady labor. Very few, in
deed, OF master minds in the trades
or professions are found in these
ranks; very few OF native Americans
who have been taught the first lesson
Of individual independence.
Were these men left to their own
resources, without aid or sympathy in
their Quixotic movement, it would
soon die out. But unfortunately the
human mind is so constituted that
professions OF distress always enlist
sympathy. and very little judgment is
exercised in ascertaining the reliability
Of the petitioner. Then, it must be ad-
mitted Congress has been to blame
and is still to blame for dilatory action
on measures which have passed the
ordeal OF the ballot-box. Some OF the
blame has been laid at tho door of the
Administration for apparent failure to
adhere to measures which it is believed
would secure the parity Of gold and
silver, promise made during the
campaign.
People are not apt to pause for a
close analysis OF the reasons which
may influence action of either Con.
gress or the President, but the blame
for any public measure is placed at
once on their shoulders. Any move
