NEW SACRAMENTO :"
The Electric City Weekly AttractiI
Hundreds of Visitors.

The Electric City Weekly Attracting
Hundreds of Visitors.
No city in the United States has been
more talked and written about during
the last thirty days than the Capital OF
California. Every prominent newspaper
in our land has had something to say in
favor of the electric city. The fact tina!
electric power has been successfully
brought from Folsom, twenty-three
miles away, has attracted the attention OF
the commercial world.
1t vii! not be long before this extra
power will be used for extending the
electric railway system to various places.
Machinery will be run by the new power,
and factories will be built on land lrrl-
gated by the water that is used for power.
Sacramento may have great future, II
there is united and persistent effort for
good government, material, mental and
moral progress.
Since the introduction of the new
! power into our city many more travellers
hours and others for several days. AS the
fall and winter travel begins tourists will
arrange to see what is going on in our
| prosperous city. An average OF 800 a
week are even now seen at the Capitol.
Mr. Herrick, who is there usually from
A. n. p. NJ, gives the tourists short
sketches OF Sacramento, which explain
the most interesting points to see, and
travellers are very thankful Tor the atten-
ton shown them.
Information given to the stranger has
a wide and telling influence. Can 1t not
be justly said that Sacramento is better
known to-day than any place in Califor-
MIA. except San Francisco and Los An
geles. and that she is second to none in
her substantial prosperity?
one OF the good signs of the coming
unity of the Golden State is the universal
praise by the press of the recent electric
carnival. September 8, 1895, Will always
be remembered as white day" in the
calendar of California's Capital. Our
watchwords should be: Unity and
Progress for the New Sacramento.

The suppression of hydraulic mining
has been of the greatest advantage to
California, not only negatively by re-
lieving the State from the injuries attend
ing it. but, also. by directing attention to
other forms of mining, especially quartz
mining, which lasts longer, employs more
labor at higher wages and is better for the
country in every respect. The outlook
for quartz mining all along the mother
lode from Mariposa TO Butte was never
more promising than at the present time.
1t would be vastly better for all con-
cernsd, directly and indirectly, if the
energy now being diverted to the re-
habilitation of hydraulic mining, which,
under the present regime. not only does
not pay, but is as much of public nui-
sance as formerly, could be concentrated
on the development of quartz properties.
They pay better, and If their debris is
impounded, which can be done economic
ally, they are harmless.
