/ left my home in St. George the
goth March last to fill a mission to
this State. After attending Confer
enc in Salt Lake City, which en-
loved very much, l was set apart on
the 7th of April, in company with
number of elders for different fields.
On the 9th in company with elders
Lunt and Uric, of Cedar City, Ben
son of Parowan, Bringhurst of To-
uuerville, Bushnell Of Meadow Creek
! left the city of the Saints for the
Golden State of California, elder
Bowman joining us at Ogden. We
had very pleasant time travelling
through Nevada, over the Sierra Me-
vada Mountains. On account of it
being in the night we were not per-
nnitted to see much of the beautiful
scenery in these mountains, but day
1ipht coming soon after we arrived
in this State the beautiful scenery
began to loom up on every side
California is, indeed, beautiful
land, especially in the early spring
time. It is land of roses and all
kinds of flowers.
I was much interested in the large
ferry boat that takes the trains
across the arm of the bay or the out
let of the Sacramento and San Joa-
kin rivers. This boat, understand,
is the largest, of its kind, in the
world, being 4a6 feet long, iIo feet
wide and weighs four thousand tons.
1t will ferry at one time, a2 coaches
and engines, or a. freight cars and
engines. 1t has two beam engines
of eleven hundred horse power each,
making an average speed of ten
miles per hour. The river here is
one mile wide, from Benitia to Por-
ia Costa.
At Oakland we leave the cars tax
ing the ferry boat to San Francisco,
across the Bay, arriving at the latter
city at 10 a. M, of the 10th. Here
we were met by number of elders
who escorted us to headquarters, sos
Fulton St. Here we met Priest. Nye
and his amiablc wife, who welcomed
us to the California mission.
On the nth conference convened,
holding three meetings during the
day and much good instruction was
given.
On the 18th the elders were as
signed to their different fields of
labor, elders Trane of Lehi, Years
ley of Menan, Idaho, and myself be-
ing called to labor in Sacramento
and vicinity. We remained in San
Francisco until the 18TH, taking in
the sights, for there is great deal
for dry land man to see. We had
fine ride in a government ship.
There is about sixty members in
the San Francisco branch and about
half that number here in Sacrament
to. Ne have nice hall in which
we hold our meetings, and many can
set an example to those at home in
attending their meetings and other
duties, such as paying their tithing,
etc.
We have number of investiga-
tors and expect, in the near future,
70 add few more to our number.
Myself and companion have just
returned from two weeks trip in
Amidor County, the great gold belt
of California. Here they are still
taking out the precious yellow met

sH1NER SIMPSON CERT1FICArED.
His Personal Honesty. Mayor strong says. Not
Questioned when He Was Bounced.

The Hon. Sinner Simpson has received a Ger.
tiicate of character from Mayor Strong. Six
months ago Sinner. who'wns then Superinten-
dent Of Streets and Roads in the Department OF
Public Works, was removed by Gen. Coils, and
although the specific reason was never made
public. it was understood that his removal was
the result OF Irregularities in the conduct OF his
office. The Hon. Shine- allowed the stigma 10
rest on his character for several months. and
then he determined to look for n vindication.
He appealed to Mayor Strong. and the result was
that on Wednesday his Honor summoned Dep
uty Commissioner Wilds. the Hon. Sinner. and
n stenographer. The confab which followed
lasted for more than an hour, and when it was
over the Mayor said he was satisfied that MIR.
Simpson had discharged the duties OF his office
in an honest manner.
The charge on which he was removed" said
the Mayor, was that he had failed to verify
his pay rolls personally and that, through his
negligence, several teamsters were able TO cheat
the city. Mr.. Simpson merely took the word OF
his subordinates, who certified that the pay
rolls were all right, would have been i'm
possible for him to do the work himself; there
fore he had 10 trust somebody. ] don't think
there was the slightest ground for any criticism
OF Mr.. simpsons personal honesty
