STOCKTON ITEMS.
The year of 1895 promises a banner
season for Stockton. Enterprises that have
been demanded for years are being gladly
welcomed and their coming is bringing
noticeable prosperity to the city. Though
Stockton has ranked for years as the sec
ond city in the State as a manufacturing
point this year has witnessed an increase
in her industries, which will receive their
greatest impetus from the importation
of coal from the Corral Hollow mines,
which is promised by the 1st of the coming
November.
The completion of the San Joaquin Val
ley Railroad will mark a new epoch in
that city and push business to a higher
notch than ever known before. Stockton
is a natural trade center, being at the head
ofwater navigation, and must always main
tain certain mercantile and financial
supremacy. Just now indications point to
an activity at this point for some years to
come that will bewilder the primitive
Stocktonian, who has been sitting for
years, and while waiting for something to
turn up has allowed fortune after fortune
to glide through his fingers.
The first townsite on the Sa.s Joaquin
Valley Railroad, which is located eight
miles from Stockton, is being plated in
the Offices of Griffith & Wolf, real-estate
dealers of Stockton who will begin selling
it off in town lots in few days.
