Governor Budd has appointed W. III.
Dimond of San Francisco Major-General
commanding the National Guard of the
State, TO succeed. himself.
He has also appointed Richard II. War
field of San Francisco Brigadier- General
Of the Second Brigade, comprising the
counties of Del Norte, Humboldt, Men
docino. Lake, Sonoma, Napa, Marin,
Contra Costa, Alameda, San Francisco,
Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Colonels
Barry and Sullivan were both candidates
for the position, but Warfield carried too
many guns for them.
ALI Brigadier- Generals, their Staff OFF,
GERS, and Regimental Paymasters and
Ordnance Officers have been placed on
the retired list.
The following on the active and retired
lists have been ordered to report to
Major General Dimond for inspection
duty: Colonel +. w. Sumner, retired;
Lieutenant Colonel Il. A. Gray, Eighth
Infantry; Major j. A. Driffel, retired;
Major L. f. Winchell; Lieutenant Col
onel ID. Weinstock, retired; Major j. H..
kelleher, retired; Major V. ID. Duboce,
retired.
Lieutenant Colonel L. II. Mckee, Ma
Jor +. ID. Ryan, Major w. w. Douglas
and X. G. Irvine waited on the Governor
yesterday afternoon to request him to re-
tain the brigade headquarters of the
Third Brigade in this city.
The Governor listened courteously to
what they had to say, but was non-com-
initial, and informed them that he would
not appoint the other two Brigadier- en-
erals before the latter part Of this week
or the first of next week.
The selection of Brigadier- General for
the First Brigade is causing the Governor
some perplexlty. Three gentlemen from
the south are warmly supported for the
place. The military down there strongly
favor Charles Last, prominent whole
sale liquor merchant of Los Angeles.
Others are urging the appointment of
Major Barrett, and others General
Matthews.
1t is expected the Governor will max @
known his selection within a day or two.
To-day he will appoint the three Code
Commissioners provided for by the late
Legislature, and it need not surprise any
one If the commander of the Third
Brigade and the Adiutant- General of the
State should be named to-day or to-
morrow.

Here we have population OF eight to the

In Belgium there are sos to the square

have as many to the mile as England.
We have barrel of flour to every in

the vines are on terraces four feet wide

carried there from the roads and else

the roads by young girls, who never
touch the grapes or see the wines. Yet

even the leaves and twigs from the trees.
On the contrary, America spends for
her tourists annually in Europe $500, ,000,

American tourists $3.50, 900. We can learn

At the Waterbury watch factory pound

Hethought the average Californian would
start with the $50 ana come out with the

OF all other nations. What other nations
have done we can do. New York State is
about the size of san Bernardino County.
1t supports 6,000,000 people, while san
BernardinO supports only a handful.
England by her energy has dominated
the world. California can dominate Eng
land, because she can accommodate more
people.
Our public buildings and schools are of

No exhaustion can come TO our farms If
