vfRGING ON A BOOM.


 Col. c. w. Smith, the veteran rail- road man and shrewd flnancier, said to the news yesterday: Southern California is in an era of wonderful prosperity. The outlook couldn't be improved. My recent trip east gave me an opportunity of learning how the attention of the tourist public is turned this way In the fact of all the wonderful developments in this section the one thing I fear is boom or real estate craze again. It would be disastrous, as the boom of '87 was bad. The newspapers should be care full. I am advising the banks also to set their feet down hard against speculation. They should refuse to loan money to any and everybody who are going to use it in specula- tion, especially in laying out new tracts not needed for business or res idence."
 Col. c. w. Smith is competent forecaster of financial conditions He IS right. Growth, but not boom, is what is wanted Solid, permanent public improvements will bring home seekers, not speculators. New homes filled by people who are able to keep them through all conditions, should be the aim. The right class of new residents will come, invest and abide with us when we shall make the conditions sufficiently attractive Beautiful parks and good roads are two factors that will give growth and stability. News
 Prosperous business induces specu- lation. Americans are a speculative people. The only way to stop specu- larion is to return to the financially depressed condition of affairs follow ing 1892. There are bad features about real estate booms. There are also good features about such a state of affairs.
 Thirteen years ago Southern Cali fornia had a boom and Northern Cali fornia did not have one. Southern Cal ifornia has grown rapidly in wealth and population and Northern Cali fornia, has not so grown. Which is preferable?
 Prosperous times produce specula- tion. The more prosperity, the more speculation-the more speculation, the more boom. No prosperity, no boom How will you have it?
 Who is able to draw the line and say to Prosperity, Thus far shalt thOT on and m farthor9'
 The people the people-might say that they would not indulge in speculation, but they won't say so
 People are money-making animals. If they think they can make money by speculation, they will speculate otherwise not

INVESTING MILLIONS.

H. E. Huntington who has occupied such a prominent position in the Southern Pacific Railroad Company as assistant president to his uncle, c. P. Huntington, having sold out his interests in that road and also his in terests in the street railroad systems of San Francisco, has turned his attention to Southern California and especially to Los Angeles, and has commenced to invest his millions in this end of the State where business is active and progress the watchword.
 He is reported as having said that he would rather reside in Los An geles than in any other city on the Pacific Coast. Evidently he is shaping his business to follow his inclinations so far as place or residence is con- cerned
 Again it is said that where mans treasure is there will. his heart be also.
 Mr. Huntington is planting his rapidly as it can be done judiciously. It would be poor business policy for MT. Huntington to advertise the fact that he is going to invest the bulk of h-s $4O,OOO,OOO in Southern California ana he has never been accused of being poor business man.
 The facts are that MT. Huntington has undertaken to plant here several millions in an inter-urban, electric, rapid transit system of railroads ex- tending from San Bernardino, Red lands and Riverside on the east, Santa Ana on the southeast, Long Beach on l..e south to Santa Barbara on the west, with Los Angeles as the rail- road center. In connection with this enterprise he says that he does not expect to take cent out of the enter prise for the next ten years, but that he will put all earnings into better mOuIS dIC0f Day iuS interest on DOnQ0Q indebtedness.
 MT. Huntington has also become one of the leading spirits in a five million dollar company to bring cleo tric power generated by water power of the Kern River to Los Angeles. 1 his power company is formed ap- parently in conjunction with the ten million dollar company to build the electric railroads. MT. Huntington is not only investing millions himself, but by so doing, is inducing other millionaires to put in their millions
 MT. Huntington is also purchasing choice pieces of real estate in and about Los Angeles. He is doing his work quietly but effectually He is making no investments elsewhere, and one of these fine days we will find MT. Huntington solidly entrenched with hls household goods and gods, and bank account and safe-deposit box right here in Los Angeles-the South ern metropolis, which he says is destined to be the largest city on the Pacific Coast
 Now Gentlemen, keep quiet and don't speculate too much.
