What the Great City Has Accomplished
Since The Earthquake.

The first month in the new year has
been one Of progress In California ani
reports received by the California Pro-
motion Committee show that all parts
Of the state are feeling the influence
Of improved conditions. There Is a
continued shortage Of labor in many
lines. all over the state, and this Is
especially noticeable in ordinary Ia
borers in the numbering industry and
in female help as operatives in mills
and facorties. Store help, telephone
operators and domestics are in enor-
nous demand. Office men, clerks and
bookkeepers are called for in all parts
of California.
Conditions in San Francisco, so far
as building operations and commerce
are concerned, are eminently satisfac-
tory. More than $39,OO0,OO0 expendi
ture is called for by the 1874 building
permits that have been issued since
the fire. 1t is estimated by architects
and contractors that fully $1OOOOO,000
will be expended in buildings during
the coming year. One hundred and
fifty buildings are now being erected
or have been completed and occupied
since the fire that are between five
and twenty-five stories in height, and
the total number of permanent build
ings erected or in course Of construc-
ton Is more than seven thousand.
California's hop and raisin crops
have been exhausted at the largest
prices paid in many years, and it is
estimated that the orange crop will
amount to thirty thousand car loads,
