LOS ANGELES AFTER NEVADA
TRADE

There more ~millionaires and more
capital centered in Los Angeles and
Pasadena practically n city, than
in any other community outside of
New York. These capitalists are not
tourists, but actual residents, who
own magnificent city residences and
villas.
Many of them have resided there
for years. Each season adds others to
their colony. Among them are some
of the greatest financial kings of the
United States, who are mostly the
senior members of the great institu-
tions built up by them, or the widows
Of such men.
Not a few of the early day boomers
of the SOS and COS have become mil
lionaires, through lucky strikes in
mines or oil, or the phenomenal ad-
vance in real estate. These rich men
and women have built palaces, great
hotels, tall blocks of business houses,
factories, etc. They have establishe l
new banks and trust companies and
filed their vaults with surplus mill
ions. Low rates of interest stimulated
building, then a spirit OF emulation
spurred the people On to equal or sur
pass the other until now a vast city
of magnificent proportions, as well as
splendor of design and construction,
embracing the very best of art and
science, unrestrained for lack of
money, is the amazement of the world,
without an equal in Europe cr
America.
This has all been accomplished with
in two decades, in the face of two
disastrous financial panics, that
wrought havoc throughout the land.
The people are enterprising; quick 80
act when they see merit.
Less than three mnoths ago the Los
Angeles Mining Review and the Sill
yer State strongly urged the establish
ment Of a miners bank to assist own.
ers to develop proven mines. The appeal
was not to Los Angeles any more than
to San Francisco. It was a good idea,
Los Angeles capitalists took it up.
They combined the oil and mining in.
terests. They incorporated the Oil and
Metals bank. 1t has already absorbed
a strong trust company, which enables
the bank to commence business with
resources Of a half million dollars.
Los Angeles is reaching out for Ne
vada trade. The "Aqueduct" rail
road, now building from Los Angeles
to winnemucca will pierce the cen
ter Of the state, and influence a large
part Of the southeast Oregon and
southern Idaho trade, now tributary t.
Winnenucca, giving Los Angeles many
advantages over San Francisco or 9th
or rivals.
Although Nevada mines contributed
SO much towards building up Sar
Francisco, Nevada has nothing te
show for it. Some Of the Los Angeles
millionaires made their money in Ne
vada and are yet heavily interested IL
the state. Nevada is growing stronger
and more self -supporting each year
In time, we win be able to stand pat
on commercial propositions. A Loi
Angeles banker within the past ter
days, secured a valuable lease and
option on a controlling interest in
splendid mine in this district for him
self and friends. He is one Of the
men who helped to build up Los An
geles. He win be here this month to
look YER the mining and other situa'
tions in the interest of himself and
friends in Los Angeles, which means
something will be doing" soon.

Laid Out Course.
A Well Timed WarnInu.

The Cedar Rapids Republican
sounds a note of warning that may
well be considered in other cities, as
well as in Cedar Rapids. The ques-
ton was asked, are we undertaking
too many public improvements?'' In
considering the question the Republi-
can said In comment:
There is now under way a quarter
Of million dollars worth OF work.
That is a lot to crowd into one season.
It Looks as If they are trying to have
everything done this year. This year
it happens that there is plenty of
work for all. Next year, or the year
after that may be a slack year, when
public work ought to be undertaken
and may need to be undertaken to
give employment to surplus labor.
1t strikes us that 1t would be
great deal better policy to scatter
such work, to distribute 1t over per
Tod Of years, allotting to each year
what may be necessary to keep men
In reasonable employment. Fortunate
", about fifty blocks of paving planned
]by the commissioners have failed to
materialize SO far. But the amount
let might have been cut still in two.
| It would have been better, much bet
/ ter If that had been the policy pur-
lssued. The commissioners are rather
OVERRIDING it. They may be too am
bilious to make a record, but it is not
/ a wise distribution of the benefits to
labor, to say. nothing Of the distribu-
ton Of burdens on property.
We suggest that the commissioners
81. down and think this over. We be-
lleve that they will find many practic-
|al business men who are Of this
Irn;nd."
4 Waterloo Reporter: The question
4 raised by the Republican has equal
| force and weight in the way it affects
other enterprising municipalities
There is no difference Of opinion as
/ to the desirability of the improve
nents referred to, but It may be wis
dom to doubt the expediency of max
B ing them SO extensively in single
season. As necessary as the improve
n,ents are It is well to consider the
poss- bi,.ty of extending the expense
SO as to make 1t as reasonable to the
tax.rayers. A well defined program
steadily adhered to will provide better
Improvements and better distribute
the burdens which must be entailed.

Iowa Land Values.

Cedar Rapids Republican: The
Traer Stars Clipper stated the other
day that the average price Of Tama
county lands. judging from recent
sales, is S125ian acre. The same pa.
per says that many farms in that
county are even now held at from $3.50
to $175 an acre. These prices seem a
little surprising to some of the papers
in southern Iowa where prices have
been held down. There are still lands
in that part OF the state that can be
had at around $50 an acre. The lands
of the southern part of the state are
not as uniformly desirable as the
lands in the northern part OF the state.
Nor can it be said that the southern
Iowa people have been as enterprising
as the northern Iowa people, There
has been more booming in northern
Iowa. It Is younger in settlement and
also younger In enthusiasm.
Some day, somehow, the people Of
Iowa will wake up to find that Iowa
lands are worth 5000 an acre. That is
what lands in Illinois are worth now,
and Illinois has no better lands than
Iowa. 1t is all matter of the people
making up their minds. Some years
ago we recall a wiseacre speaking
about land values-this was during
the Spanish-American war. There was
piece of land offered In northern
Iowa for less than SIS an acre. He
advised the man not to take 1t. He
said the time was then past for invest
ing In Iowa lands. He had bought
some at about SO an acre, and that
was the time to get in. He said that
| S25 land might in the next ten years
hover around $50, but the rise would
be consumed in taxes, and SO on. He
was in his day wise man and he
reasoned very carefully. But he did
not know and he did not realize the
| future possibilities of Iowa. The land
that he said was not worth buying at
$25 has since risen to three and three
/ and half times that value, and it is
not for sale even for those prices.
The rise in the next ten years will
! be just as rapid as it has been in the
past ten years. Ten years from now
4 Iowa lands will have an average value
running close to 5000 an acre. BY
4 that time agricultural operations vii
4 have much less OF the element of lucl
in them.
