A YEAR OF ADVANCEMENT.

There can be no doubt but Southern
California is in the midst OF slow and
sure advancement and an increase in
valued, all the way from Port Hartford to
San Diego. The scms of this advance.
ment is in our own city, but it extends
all the way over two hundred miles of
coast line. A prominent citizen OF Port
land, which is not far from being as large
a place as Los Angeles, said TO the writer
a few days ago:
GAN the push and go-ahead of the
whole coast seems to be conferred right
in this city. There are more buildings
now being erected here than there are in
the whole state OF Ofegoa."
In this he was not far out OF the way.
Los Angeles has become the second
money center of the coast, and the re-
ports of the clearing house show it's
rapid advance in financial soil dity. With
the recent petroleum discoveries wi thin
an environment of twenty miles about
the city, will come an abundance of
cheap fuel. and that will make her
manufacturing city. And while this
progress is perceptiblo in less degree
elsewhere. it ia still 30 clearly marked
that not single town south of the
Tehachspi pass seems to be retrograding
or even standing still.
Five years ago San Diego was as dead
as Carthage; ana guardian geniuses

day and Rip Van WinkIe by night.
We visited San Diego several days ago
and witnessed singular transformation.
There were no 'idlers save few climate
refugees who had come down there for
their health, and had plenty OF money
TO enable them to live without work.
All the rest were busy about something
or other. Good comnegcisl buildings

were going up in a dozen different direc'
tions-nothing like our Stimson or Brad
bury blocks, to be sure, but good enough
for all the requirements OF the trade.
The cheering sound of hammer and saw
resounded on all sides, and we asked a
foreman on one OF the buildings about
the condition of the labor market.
well, taere are lots OF men that call
themselves carpenters who have taken
the thing up of their own accord and
never served an hours apprenticeship
at the trade. Some of these fellows can
build good barn or even good one
story cottage, but on work of this sort
shev clearly are at sea. You can proba-
bly, find twenty or thirty such workmen
out of employ, but of real craftsmen
who have served apprenticeship at the
trade there is not one idle. 1t is just so
In all other lines of work. There is not
q competent workman whose services are
not in demand"
As the train whirled along through
Fullerton, Orange, Santa Ana and the
other pretty little towns along the line,
signs OF improvement were everywhere
perceptible. This ia not boom by any
means. 1t is a gradual and healthy
growth OF the towns aud cities along the
south coast, in proportion to their tribu-
tary country. Men of wealth are arriv-
ing daily from the east and locating in
the larger cities, while men who have
grown tired OF farm drudgery in the
older states have come out to try horti-
culture under the benefcent irrigation
systems which now enable a man to
make a. much money off OF ten acres as
ne formerly amsssed by the tillsge OF
sixty. We have the most favored por-
ton OF Gods footstool and the rest of
mankind are fast finding it out.
Just what this country was 40 years
ago and what it is now. great many OF
US already know. But what it will be
by the time that California has cele-
bratsd her centennial anniversary as
state, is only vague dream of the pres
emit writing. 1t is evident, however,

BILE OF comfortably supporting three
millions of population; and equally evil
dent, too, that che will have that
amount, if not more, before three more
decades have passed over her.
No encomium upon Los Angeles il
needed in this connection. She is pros
porous and can therefore have none save
the kind est of words for all her neigh
bors. Enthroned upon her half-dozen
hills, she invites hither the investor
whose patient toll has resulted in his
induction into the ranks OF the million
aires; the merchant whose srgosies
have whitened every sea in the blessed
mission OF bringing man nearer unto
man; and the advocate whose plethoric
purse attests desire for peace and rest
after years of srduous professional labor.

In HIS petition to the London bank
rupicy courts the we'll known author,
Robert Buchanan, states that his liabili-
ties are 1885, while his assets are of
nominal value. At the same time he
stLtes that his income from his literary
works, during the past five years, has
averaged $1,000 per annum. 1t does
seem to us that a man who does not
daily with draw-poker nor play the
horses, ought to be able TO live on an
income of 1925 per month. But these
modern authors are such tender and
delicate creatures, you know. They

WHBATLEY PARTLY EXAMINED.


Testimony Introduced Proving His
Marriage.
Yesterday morning in the Police Court,
E. c. Hart. counsel for Alexander Wheat
ley, asked that the case go over as his
presence was required at Nevada City.
He was perfectly willing that the testi-
nlony of Deputy Sheriff Rupert should
be taken at this time in order that he be
allowed to go home.
Rupert testified that he had been ac-
ouainted with Wheatley about three
years, and had known his wife since she
was girl.
w. A. Anderson asked that the testi-
mony in relation to Wheatley being mar
ried be stricken out, as 1t was not the
best evidence of the tact. The evidence
was stricken out, and City Attorney
Brown withdrew Rupert and put Mrs.
Wheatley on the stand 10 prove tho fact,
Anderson objected TO the introduction
OF her testimony on the ground that
wife cannot testify against her husband.
He withdrew his objection under the
statement of the court that if he on con-
sideration order her testimony stricken
out, it would not influence his decision
in any way.
Mrs. Nheatley then testified that. she
was married to Wheatley in 1892 by JUS
tice AlYord of Williams, and her mar
riage certificate was placed in evidence.
After they were married, she stated, they
Went TO San Francisco, and shortly after
ward came to Sacramento, and she went
to live on L street. She had lived there
about four months.
Rupert was then put on the stand
again, and testified that he saw Mrs,
Wheatley In a house of ill-fame on i,
street and wearing short clothes. She.
pretended not to know him and denied
ever having been in Wheatland.
The case was then continued tell Tues
day, the 18th inst.
Major Anderson then made an effort to
get the sentence of Mrs. Wheatley. or
Mabel Clifton, as she is known, for va
grancy, put over till the same time: but
was unsuccessful, and she will probably
be sentenced to-day.

The Sacramento REcoRD-UNIoN has
commenced its fortieth volume since the
consolidation and the eighty eighth since
the original UNION was started. This is
q long life for California newspaper, one
surpassed by very few. We have read
it for more than twenty years. It is es-

means to gain additional revenue. It is
one of the best edited papers on the coast
and we are proud of its clean, conserva-
tive course. 1t is an honor to journalism
and the Pacific Coast, and we hope to see
its influence ever exerted for the good of
mankind.
