Work in medicine, the arts,
and other fields has added
greatly to the wealth, health,
happiness, and progress of the
state and of the nation.
The University pioneered
the ''Soybean" from labora-
tory to field during 80 years
with the result that Illinois
farmers last year took in $685.
100000 from the crop alone.
This one accomplishment of
the University is worth each
year many times the entire
physical value of the Institu-
ton.
Other great achievements
such as sound-on-film talking
pictures, the Electric Eye"
synthetic rubber, and the Beta
tron-important as the worlds
most powerful x-ray machine
for industry and medicine, and
as scientific machine opening
new fields for study of the
atom-have helped make ILL
nois a world leader.

California Gold
Ruined It's Finders
BY JAMES d. WHITE
AP Newsfeatures Writer

COLOMA, Calf. n Gold, discover
ed here 100 years ago (Jan. 24),
brought only grief to the man who
found it, and to the man on whose
land It was found
Both men, James Wilson Marshall
Of New Jersey, and John A. Suffer
of Sacramento, were swamped by
the gold rush that followed.
Il cut short Suffers career as a
benevolent everlord in early Cali
fQrRia. 1t settled Marshall in what
seems to have been a shy, mOrOse
personality. Both lived out their
lives. Neither ever got to first base
mining the gold that gave Califor-
mia its rich start.
Suffer was already famous in Cal
ifOruia, solid man. Born as Johann
Augustus SuteF in Baden, Switzer-
land, IN 1908, he had come to Amer
lea as a young man. He lived in St.
Louis and ran trading post at
Santa Fe.
Hearing tales of California, he
came here in 1899 when San Fran
cisco still was the village of Yerba
Buena.
The Mexicans let Suter establish
the first white settlement at what
IS now Sacramento. He built a
small fort there as protection
against the Indians. Possibly be-
cause he bought out the Russians
a. Fort Ross in 1871, the. Mexicans
made his alcalde (magistrate) Of
northern California and gave him a
Milford chronicle., 1948-01-30

Suffer realized he was left in a
legal vacuum, and did what he
could to insure his position. He got
the Americans to continue him as
aIcalde at Sacramento. He came up
TO COlOma and made a treaty with
the ColOma Indians, but when ne
tried to register it with the new
american governor at Monterey,
the governor said he was sorry but
he had no authority to recognize it
because California was still a Next
can province held by conquest.
It was almost two years before
California gained statehood, and in
the meantime gold-hungry hordes
OF squatters had jumped claims be-
longing to both Suffer and Mar
shall, had driven them off with
guns and picks, had stolen their
equipment and even eaten much of
Suffers livestock.
Had both men been different, the
story might have ended differently.
But Suffer was stubborn and Mar
shall was shy.
Suffer fought for his claims, and
commission set up to adjudicate
such relies Of MexicO's rule upheld,
him, but the decision was reversed
after somebody appealed to the Su-
preme Court.
Suffer tried mining gold, and
was threatened with violence when
ne used Indian labor. He never
made a success at gold mining. He
retired on $3.50 monthly pension
to a small homestead in the hills,
Milford chronicle., 1948-01-30

large grant Of land. He raised
thousands Of head of livestock and
built his fort into a prosperous
community that was the first to
welcome immigrants as they came
over the mountains from the east.
He called it New Helvetia. There
he lived a busy life, helping settlers
get started. He sensed the possibili-
ties Of the great valley and realized
he needed people more than any
thing else.
To supply human needs, he had
to have -four and lumber mills. So
when a young wheel-wright named
James Wilson Marshall came along.
Suter put him to work.
Marshall was born in Warren
County, New Jersey, in 1910. He
had come to California in time to
take part in the 'Bear Flag Incl
dent in 1916, when a handful of
Americans took over temporarily
the town of SOnOma with the en-
enlargement of the rowing Ameri-
can general, John c. Fremont.
The Mexican war was on, but
California was mostly quiet. There
were only about zoo Americans
here at the time. Suter, thinking
ahead, changed his name to John
August Suffer- Your history-con-
scious Californian still pronounces
his name "Soo-tah."
He was doing all right at the be-
ginning Of 1S48. His valley was
Milford chronicle., 1948-01-30

getting more people. He was paying
off the Russians for Fort Ross. He
had built flour mills at Sacramento,
and up here at COloma, so miles in
to the Sierra foothills, Jim Mar
shall was putting the last touches
to a saWmill.
Trouble was, Marshall had built
the tailrace of the mill too small.
So he opened the sluice-gate one
evening to let the water rush
through and enlarge the channel.
The next morning, Jan. "a, 1848, he
went to see how it was. Some vel
low nuggets lying in the water at
tracted his attention-for life.
He could not be sure it was gold
but gathered a few ounces and four
Gays later burst in on Suffer at the
fort.
The methodical Swiss tested II
every way he could think of. He

blacksmith shop, and died in 1885
in very modest circumstances.
In 1890 Californians re-buried
him here at COloma, on a hill over
looking the American river where
he picked up the first gold. A hand
some bronze statue depicts him
pointing toward the old mill site.
But as late as the mid-192Os the
descendants of John Suffer refused
to permit the body of the Swiss
pioneer to be moved back to Cali
fOrnia for a similar honor.

China Gets Around

His salary has been static while
prices scared out Of sight, and how
he kept clothes on his back and food
on his table has been a Chinese
puzzle.
Now, the state council rules, his
salary will be readjusted every
three months. 1t will be reckoned

weighed it, pounded it, found it
heavy and malleable. He dipped it
in vinegar and in nitric acid from
his little pharmacy.
1t was gold. He began worrying
for life.
He feared his workmen would
leave his busy mills and fields.
They did, in spite of double wages.
Two weeks later California became
an American territory. Merican law,
Under which Suffer held his various
titles, was gone.
