A MAGNIFICENT EFFORT.

The Calls New Era Edition Sunday was a magnificent effort The eighty pages were full of good readable matter, among which was found an art- cle from Henry Miller, who does not often pose as a journalist. The cover pages contained a fine view of The Call building in the highest style of htho- graphic art. The paper was profusely H. frustrated with excellent half-tones and many of the articles descriptive of the State and its industries are well worth preserving for reference. Still, eighty pages make too much at one time even if it is of the best quality.-Gilroy Gazette.

AN UhRIVALED ISSUE.

There was much to admire and praise in the Christmas Call. It was decidedly the most artistic of the big papers yet issued on the coast, and we have not seen it excelled by the press of any city. The typographical style of the paper in most of its features was excellent, and the pa per bore evidences of the work of the skilled craftsman in its details. In it's nages newspaper illustration reached a degree of perfection actually undreamed of even five years ago, and magazine would have been quite satisfied with as goood work ten years ago.-Santa Cruz Surf

Unfortunately, however, the programme had to be changed somewhat, as fndisposition on the part of General Shafter rendered it necessary for him to delegate to one of his aids, Lieutenant Noble, the du- ties of the military social function. The lieutenant, however, represented his commander in a manner which left nothing to be desired and upheld the dignity of his Government in a style calculated to cultivate the comity of nations
