Finally, in 1896, a bill was introduced in the house of representatives appropriating $2,900,000 for a deep-water harbor at Santa Monica. There was a general feeling among the people of Los Angeles that the interest of the Southern Pacific in the Santa Monica
350
History of Los Angeles.
project was because a harbor there would be exclusively controlled by that corporation, whereas a harbor at San Pedro would be open to competition. The Terminal road, which had extensive holdings at San Pedro, and the Santa Fe road, which was believed to be disinterested except in so far as the ques- tion of location might affect the general wel- fare of the region, were both determined in their opposition to the Santa Monica plan, as were also the two senators of the state and the congressman of the district. So many pro- tests from authoritative sources against the proposed improvement were forwarded to Washington, accompanied by demands that it be changed to San Pedro, that the item was struck out of the house bill, and Los Angeles was left, as in previous years, with no appro- priation for deep-water work. When the mat- ter came up in the senate, Stephen M. White, who was a resident of Los Angeles, and a member of the senate committee on commerce, demanded that the money be appropriated for San Pedro, and when that was refused, that the whole question of location be left to a third board of engineers, one of whom should be from the navy, one from the coast survey and the other three from civil life. The com- merce committee refused this compromise, and put back in the bill the appropriation for Santa Monica. The fight was then carried to the floor of the senate, and at the end of a
351
The Modern City.
long struggle, Mr. White's plan was adopted. The new board reported in favor of San Pe- dro, and the work was begun in 1899, after two years of most extraordinary and unac- countable delay.
When this work, which is the construction of a seawall 8500 feet long, is completed, Los Angeles will have at its ocean gateway a harbor that is admirably adapted for refuge and for most naval necessities, and is not with- out great value for commercial purposes ; but to make it entirely serviceable for the latter it will be necessary to dredge out the inner harbor for several thousand feet along the docks. When that is done Los Angeles will possess one of the finest harbors in the coun- try, and will take its share of the Oriental com- merce that is destined to come to the Pacific coast.
The bank deposits of Los Angeles, which before the boom were $3,000,000 or $4,000,- 000, rose during the boom to $12,000,000; for a brief time they fell back to $9,000,000, but since then the rise has been almost continuous, until now they aggregate about $25,000,000. Annual clearances are now 400 per cent larger than they were ten years ago, which is a strik- ing evidence of the growth of general business. The orange industry, which had its start in the orchard of William Wolfskill in Los An- geles in the 50's, has grown to mammoth pro- portions. To deliver the crop in the east a

trainload must start every hour of the work- ing day through more than half the year. The gross receipts in the eastern market aggregate about $15,000,000. The region covered by this industry extends from San Diego to Santa Barbara, but most of the area is commercially tributary to Los Angeles. The oil industry of Southern California also centers at Los An- geles, the product averaging three or four millions per annum, most of which is mined in the immediate vicinity of the city. In the years 1899 and 1900 Los Angeles passed through a veritable oil boom, with a vast amount of trading in securities of doubtful value. The sinking of many hundred wells stimulated manufacturing and business of all kinds, and although the first enthusiasm of the discovery has worn off, the industry is believed to be only in its beginning.
The other principal sources of income to Los Angeles, besides the two mentioned above, are: Its wholesale trade, which covers all Southern California, most of Arizona and extends well into the San Joaquin valley, the miscellaneous products of surrounding farms, such as hay, grain, vegetables, fruits, etc., the local manufactures, which since oil has been supplied as a cheap fuel, have undergone a great increase, the expenditure of travelers, who are entertained by tens of thousands every winter, and lastly, a great amount of money brought in by the never-ending stream

of new-comers. These are people whose pur- pose it is to make their homes in Los Angeles ; they buy property and build houses and put money into new enterprises for the develop- ment of the country. As long as the climate holds good, this source of supply seems likely to be limitless. It must be noted, moreover, that Los Angeles contains a large element of the retired class, whose incomes are spent in the city, but are derived from investments in the eastern states.
In the midst of the boom Los Angeles adopted a new charter (1889), but the docu- ment was faulty in providing too many elec- tive offices and in failing to definitely locate responsibility. The city government, while far from bad, is by no means up to the stand - ard that the city is entitled to enjoy, consid- ering the unusual character of its population. There is no such percentage of foreign ele- ment as is to be found in most American cities, neither is there an illiterate or impoverished element. On the other hand, the exception- ally large proportion of people of comfortable means who have the time that they might devote to the duties of citizenship, gives an op- portunity such as few cities enjoy for a high quality of local government. Three attempts have been made to give the city a new and adequate charter, but all have been defeated.
The mayors of the city during the latter period were: T. E. Rowan, 1892-4; Frank Rader, 1894-6; M. P. Snyder, 1896-8; Fred

Eaton, 1898-1900, and M. P. Snyder at the present time. On national and state issues the city is generally Republican, although through a combination of silver Republicans and Dem- ocrats Mr. Bryan's forces carried the city in 1896, while the county went the other way by a small majority. In 1900 both city and coun- ty went heavily Republican. In local ele :- tions, Democrat and Republican alternate in the office of mayor, while the majority of the council is almost always Republican.
At the present writing, the summer of 1901, the city is growing with greater rapidity than at any time in its history, if we except the one or two years of the boom, when it added a hundred per cent every few months. Thạt the population of 100,000 in 1900 is compound- ing at the rate of 10 per cent per annum the school census shows clearly enough, and the increase of business is on even a greater ratio than that of population. The southwestern region of the United States will support at least one great city, and all doubt as to where that city will be located is now at an end. The little pueblo that Governor De Neve founded 120 years ago, in order that grain for the army might be raised in California instead of im- ported from Mexico, has at last grown to be the active, prosperous city of his dreams. That it should some day become one of the great metropolitan centers of the nation is not a dream, but the natural outgrowth of existing conditions.

NOTE. - POINTS OF HISTORICAL INTEREST.
The visitor to Los Angeles who reads this volume, and who finds himself interested in the city's history, should not fail to visit the exhibit room of the Cham- ber of Commerce. In the gallery he will find the col- lection of Indian artifects made by Dr. F. M. Palmer. In a room of the gallery is the Coronel collection, which is an admirable exposition of early Spanish- American life. The interesting exhibit of the Pasa- dena Art Loan Association will be found on the main floor of the Chamber. At the County Court House is the admirable collection of the Los Angeles His- torical Society. It is hoped that some time all these collections will be gathered into a fireproof library, museum and art building, a conspicuous lack at the present time in Los Angeles, that it remains for some wealthy man to fill.
At the Court House may be seen two of the historic cannon, near the Broadway entrance; the other two may be seen at the corner of Commercial and North Main streets. The Plaza should be visited, and the Church of Our Lady, facing the Plaza.
The Missions of San Gabriel, San Fernando and San Juan Capistrano should be visited by the stranger who is interested in the city's history. He should, in conclusion, send a check for any sum from one dollar up to Mr. Chas. F. Lummis, the President of the Landmarks Club, the organization that is working to preserve the old mission buildings from utter ruin.
