of $5,OO0OO0 will not be felt by California citizens. Wba. ~. A

California; property assessment is $2,43S 100000. Tho
value of the products of her soil alone is $500, OO0 OO. a sum na.IN
great as the total assessment of Louisiana-$523, 900 OOO. Cats
to make the comparison more plain, has an assessment five timo
great as that of her rival state. Both states assess on a GO No,
basis.
Such is the bid California makes for Americas jubilee in ,o,.
at the completion and opening of the Panama canal. CaEforn;a M
pay her own bills, and be ready to entertain the world in a wav ,.
will be a credit to the whole nation. California does not ask mo o.
of aid from the government.
What has Louisiana to offset thisf Against SAT, OOOO 900 Of cr
fornias public and private money pledged to the exposition and :,
improvements in anticipation of the canal opening, the southern s,.
and city have provided $6,500,000 in state bonds and somewhat ov,
81 100000 in subscriptions. Until a short time ago Louisiana stated
that she would ask a loan of $4,000 600 or $4,000 900 from the Dow
eminent in order to make the exposition as magnificent as it sbmId
be. Lately she has not made this statement. Can she give a crad,
able exposition on $~S,O00,000?
California bonds sell readily. October II nearly $2yOOO,O 900 of i'm
provement bonds issued by San Francisco found seven bidders. and
they were snapped up with a high premium for the privilege. New
Orleans opened the sale of Z, 10000 600 of improvement bonds Ocbbe-
4, and could not find a bidder. The attorney general of New York
has pronounced Louisiana bonds unsafe Investments"
An exposition is a tremendous financial undertaking, and a lux
|uy only the opulent could consider. The race seems between far up
equal opponents. San Francisco certainly presents the most fetchnc
argument.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-11-26
California's Fetching Argument

Fl SAN FRANCISCO doesn't get recognition of congress for its
Panama Exposition, it will not be because of any lack of money
! to make a success of the big fair. Congress might want to favor
city has asked for recognition from congress for a fair of such proper
tons, but when it comes to raising the money, 1T Is doubtful II the
Crescent City can meet the exactions.
California has appropriated 81, 100000 to finance and to prepare
for the Panama-Pacifc International Exposition in 1915. The people
O.. the state have given ST., 100000 to build the exposition itself, and
November 8 they authorized, with a tremendous majority of votes,
the issuance of $%1S,0O0,OO0 in highway bonds that California in 1915
may be good to look upon when the exposition visitors crowd toward
the Golden Gate. At the same time 81, 10000 in bonds was voted
to make sure that the harbors of San Francisco and San Diego are in
condition by 1915 to handle the increased shipping that must result
from the opening of the Panama canal. Altogether $4700O,OOO has
been provided for improvements and the glory of the world show.
California is making ready for 1915.
The sum of ST., 100000 provided for the exposition is the largest
ever gathered by any state for any exposition anywhere. The sum
of $~18O00,O0O in bonds voted for a system of state highways assures
the greatest project of its kind ever attempted west of New York,
which is east Of nearly all the United States. Then ~$10000OOO for
San Franchises harbor and 81, 100000 for San Diego is an evidence
that Calfornians will be ready to take their part in Americas effort
to gain the commercial supremacy of the Pacific when Uncle Sam
opens the locks at Panama. Rich and liberal California has shown
her faith in the canal and her own future.
From the northern line of the Golden State to the Mexican
boundary is 800 miles, and by 1915 over this sweep of mountains and
valley and plain a system OF highways, broad, well kept, well paved,
will give easy access to every beauty and richness in the state.
These thoroughfares will furnish a new attraction. by making the
natural wonders of California well within reach of the motorear
tourist.
1t must be a rich and fruitful state that can do these things. San
Francisco since 1906 has spent more than 100000 900 in reconstruc-
ton, yet her citizens in private subscription raised 81, 100000 for
their exposition. The city OF San Francisco is constructing her own

Better Late Than Never

GENERAL HITCHCOCK is properly being given
much credit for raiding the "get-rich-quick' concerns of New
L York, but in light of his statement that these concerns have
swindled the people of the country out of $1OO,OOOOOO during the last
five years, it is pertinent to inquire how such a thing could happen
under such an astute and viglant official. What has Hitchcock been
doing all this time9 Surely these operations have not come to his
attention recently for the first time. He has been in the postomce
for years-was first assistant postmaster general before
he W elevated by Taft into the position of chief of the department
The concerns he has raided have openly and with flaming publicity
Haunted their goods before the public; it was only through their wide
spread advertising that they were enabled to do such an enormous
fake business. How comes it that Hitchcock wakes up at this late
after the public has been feeced of a hundred millions?
Possibly this is the first time that Hitchcock could take a day off
from politics. Since the department has become a political machine
postmasters haven t had much time to devote to postofice business
However, soon or late, Hitchcock is entitled to credit for breaking up
the gangs of swindlers doing business through the postoffce, and It's
hoped that hereafter he will keep his eagle eye open for such con-
Germs.

Commission Must Be Saved

u L is TRULY unfortunate that the constItutionality of the law that
created the State Railway Commission should be questioned, but
should the law be in contravention of the statutes, the sooner it
is known the better.
The state railway commission has been the most useful commits
under the act conscientousy and with great ability have carried out
of the state. Through their Intervention the people have saved hun.
dreds of thousands of dollars in freight rates and reforms have been
instituted that mean millions of dollars to Nevada in time.
Sometimes commissions established to regulate, - fail in their pr-
poses. Especially is this true with railroad commissions, for sooner
or later they come under the influence of the railroads and the people
hold "the sack, Is is evidenced, for instance, in the state of Califor-
MIA, where the railroad commission is as supinely subject to the rail
roads a if a part of the railroad organization and under their pay.
But in Nevada the situation has been entirely the reverse. The
commissioners have been 81 active on behalf of the people that the
railroads want the commission abolished. Hence the suit in question.
Ii the law creating the commission be unconstitutional, it should
be known at once, so that the incoming legislature can enact a statute
in conformance to the organic law of the state, for the railroad COM
mission must be saved and perpetuated.
In this connection the Reno Journal says:
1t would seem that the attack on the consttutionality of the act
creating the railroad commission, made by the Tonopah & Goldfeld
Railroad company, is unnecessary and vicious. The road might well
maintain that the rates prescribed by the board are unreasonable or.
eonfscatory without attacking the consttutionaity of the law. In
fact, the circumstance that al heroic remedy is sought rather than the
ordinary one, would lead the observer to believe that the contention
of confscation could not be maintained, or that it was doubtful.
The policy of attacking the constituionality of established laws
and the authority of established executive boards should not be en-
couraged. 1t spells chaos and it means antipathy, hostility and an
absence of the spirit Of fairness that should characterize corporations
doing business that demands favors from the state Just as much as
they confer benefits upon the state.

! Very few cities can make such a showing, notwithstanding .s
s.ot that San Francisco meanwhile suffered the greatest disaster tat
ever visited any city in the country. In addition, the populauon :,
Oakland and other bay cities tributary to San Francisco mas rea
enormously, making it a trade center of nearly a million people.
San Francisco is now eleventh in the list of American cities II
was next to Buffalo in the last census and still keeps It's reia u'
standing. both cities having increased in about the same proportion
Detroit grew very rapidly in the past decade, due largely to the
growth of the automobile industry, which employs many thousands
directly and indirectly, and which city passed both San Francisco
and Buffalo, and now ranks ninth in the list.
The growth of San Francisco and other California cities will
doubtless give that state another congressman when the reapportlon-
ment is made at the next session of congress.

would be deserted and would never be rebuilt. This val onlv
