Carnegie, is one of the most frequented
institutions in the city
Santa Monica is fortunate in having
banks which are built on foundation
of strength in keeping with it's develop
ment. The Bank of Santa Monica,
corner of Third and oregon avenue,
has Robert F. Jones for it's president,
with Roy Jones, vice president, and
Senator John P. Jones, Fl. M. Gorham,
N. H. Hamilton and w. T. Gillis,
directors. H. A. Winslow is the cash
ier and Schuller Cole assistant cashier.
The Merchants National bank is not
so old as the Bank of Santa Monica,
but is sharing with it the credit of
assisting in the upbuilding of the city.
Under the presidency of T. II. Dudley,
it has forged rapidly ahead and there
is now in process of erection for it a
fine new home on the corner of Third
and Oregon avenue which will be ready
by August 1. Mr.. Dudley has been
prominent in all works of a public
character and is the mayor of the city.
Santa Monica Improvements
Perhaps Santa Monica's greatest ad-
vancement was in the permanent i'm
provement of her streets. About thirty
street assessment rolls were issued
during the past year. This improve
ment involves an expense of $4,000.
Ten contracts in course of construction
will add another $4,000 to the grand
total, while it is calculated that work
done under private contract will equal
double that done under public con-
tract.
Other improvements of a substantial
character included the laying of mile
four-inch mains by the Artesian Water
company. A new we'll sunk by the same
company to a depth of 240 feet de-
Veloped a good flow of fine water. The
East Santa Monica Land and Water
company has also sunk a number of
new wells and laid several miles of
mains throughout it's tract just outside
the city limits. Washington Place Is
graded sdewalked, curbed and sew
cred, the sewer alone costing $4,000.
A large quantity of grading and side
walk work was also done on the sub
divisions Immediately adjoining the
city on the east. Two blocks on Third
street and Utah avenue are paved with
asphaltum.
At the brick and tile factory an eX-
pendture of $4,000 was made in plant
and machinery, and the manufacture
of brick and tile was begun on an eX-

COAST CHARMS
OF SANTA MONICA
POPULARITY OF THE CITY OF
OAKS AND PALMS
INCREASE IN POPULATION
Spectacular Feature of the Home
Town Is the Lofty Bluffs Over
looking the Sea-Broad
Streets and Avenues

1t has been truthfully said that
every seaside resort in Southern Cali
fornia has some peculiar charm or at
tractive feature unlike that of it's
rivals, and thus those who can afford
it should spend some time at each to
fully know and enjoy the various
pleasures afforded. Among people who
have visited the numerous resorts
there is great diversity of opinion as
to individual merit, and that this diff
ference of opinion will continue so long
as mankind inhabits this globe there
can be no doubt. The champions of
Santa Monica are legion and they aver
that the resort has no equal as resort
for either winter or summer.
The spectacular feature of Santa
Monica from the scenic view point is
it's lofty bluffs overlooking the ocean.
Tine sites along the bluffs have rare
possibilities for men who have the
means to improve them, and the day
is coming when this land will COM
mand an exceedingly high price and
pass into the hands of the wealthy who
will build thereon magnificent homes
and properly landscape the ground so
as to make the most of the rare advan-
tages offered by the sites.
Another beauty of Santa Monica is
the generous manner in which it has
been laid out. The streets are broad
and make a noble appearance. 1t is
doubtful if there is any city in Cali
fornia that equals it in this respect and
1t is certain that none excels it,
Population Is Increasing
According to the official report of
City Clerk Hemingway, the census of
Santa Monica city just completed
shows the number of actual residents
to be 1908. This is more than double
what the enumeration of 1900 showed
and does not include the vast transient
population that is continually coming
and going, Neither does this have any
thing to do with the large and rapidly
increasing number who are daily TAX
ing up permanent residence within
the city limits of Ocean Park and even
farther down along this beach.
The town is daily becoming more inn
portant as an established residence
section and costly improvements are
constantly adding to its attractiveness.
Expensive residences are going up on
all sides, which in most cases are to be
be the summer homes of Los Angeles
business men. their families participant
ing in the social life of both city and
beach.
Educational advantages are of the
best. A library, the gift Of Andrew

tensive scale. The freight shipments
and passenger business of the South
ern Pacific show an increase of 80 per
cent over 1908.
The Sunset Telephone company sub
stantially rebuilt its local system and
made extensions to Sawtelle and The
Palms, at an expense of $4,000, and
trebled the number of subscribers.
The Home Telephone company entered
the city and built a fine system
throughout the town. The postoffice
was advanced from a third-clasS office
on July 1 to an office of the second
class, the receipts for the fiscal year
showing a gain of more than 20 per
cent.
The early future has many big things
in store, among those under contem-
plation or in course of building is $780,
900 hospital building a 100000 bank
block, and the development of the mesa
to the north in the vicinity of Santa
Monica canyon, where the Los An
geles-Pacific Railway company pur-
poses extending it's lines and subdivid-
ing the thousands of acres it controls
there.
Rustic Canyon
In Rustic canyon, a twenty minutes
drive over a good road from Santa
Monica, is located the state forestry
experiment station. During the past
summer the fires that swept the foot
hills and canyons in the vicinity of
Santa Monica despoiled this station of
many of the younger trees and shrubs.
The fires also destroyed the buildings
of the institution, entailing a loss of
probably $4,000. This station is main
tanned as an adjunct to and at the ex-
pense of the state university. Its in
estimable value having been proven
during the sixteen years of it's career,
the board of regents of the university,
at meeting held soon after the fire
had wrought such havoc made an ap-
preparation of $4,000 for the purpose of
rehabilitating the premises. Acting
upon these instructions, and utilizing
the appropriation thus made, new
buildings are now in course of con-
struction al the station. These in
clude residence for the superintendent
IN charge, together with necessary
sheds and outbuildings and the repair
of the water system. This forestry
station includes twenty acres, and all
sorts of trees from every cline are
experimental with in thorough man
ner. A record is kept of the progress
of every tree planted.

FACTS and OBSERVATIONS
IN WOLFE COUNTY.

The writer left home on Thurs
day morning for Wolfe Circuit
Court.
The new depot at Torrent will
soon be competed. Workmen are
charging the yard between depot
and tunnel.
5E Park Hotel will be conducted
by Clarence Bush and Floyd Day.
They take charge on MAY 10Th. Mr..
Bush has been at Torrent for about
ii years in charge of the store, and
of the hotel except during tourist
season. We expect to hear favor
able reports concerning this at
tractive resort. Further notice
later.
We rode horseback to Campton,
10 miles. This is the safest AMI
quickest way for the trip, !. e., a
traveller accustomed to horseback
will not regret so going. If the
reputation of a county or county
officials depends upon the condition
of the roads we extend our sympa-
thy to his excellency, the County
Judge, and others associated with
him. Travel by conveyance is dan
gerous in many places. We do not
wish to be considered as complain
ing or growing when We call atten-
ton to the condition of roads
whether dirt roads in the mount
aims or pixies in Montgomery and
Bath counties. We are making
friendly suggestions; we are inter
ested in the welfare of the counties
and the officials. II the appropIi-
ations for pixies. economically and
wisely expended, are not sufficient
to provide good roads, let there be
some read ustment, extra approprl-
alton, additional supervision, or
something TO remedy the SERIOUS
defects. In regard to the mud
roads in various counties we are
convince that there needs to be
more work-systematic, thoughtful
work-not pitching a few bushes
and little dir. Il q sink that has
no drainage, while tons of rock are
near by if not actually pitched out
of the roadbed. The road from
Torrent will, in some places in win
ter and early spring, be BAD how
ever much work less than piking)
be put on it. Much of the road is
now in FINE condition, smooth and
safe; but we do not see any excuse
for some of those dangerous places.
We have often thought that the
teamsters who regularly haul over
these roads in several counties could
we'll afford (from the money stand
point to club together and STE that
loose rock scattered for miles or
living around these dangerous places
