HOME AFFAIRS.
The Fate of Our "Paper
Towns."
SOME LOCAL POLITICS.
The Reliance Club Addressed by
Judge Herndon—Clan-Na-Grel
at the Tent.
! A joint meeting of the Board of Trade
and the Committee of Arrangements for
the reception of the Sovereign Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows was held last even
ing at the rooms of the Board of Trade.
A considerable amount of money was
subscribed and the following resolutions
were afterward adopted by the Board of
Trade:
Whebbas. The Sovereign Grand Lodge
of tliH World of Odd Fellows assembles in
our city Septembei 17th, 1887; and,
WnBRBAt, In this assemblage we rec
ognize the fact that the represent itive
pHople of not only our own.but of foreign
countries, will visit the Pacific Coast;
an 1,
Whereas, The great benefit to our
State will be in having as many of our
Pacific Coast people as possible meet our
visitors, and in order to accomplish this,
the success will greatly depend upon the
rate charged by the ' Southern
Ruilroad Company to and from Los An
geles; and
Whereas, It has been reported that
the Southern Pacific Railroad Company
has fixed the rate of fare at one and one
third from northern points in the Slate
for the round trip to Los Angeles to Odd
Fellows only; now, therefore, bs it
Hesolved, That we, the members of the
Los Angeles Board of Trade, represent
ing the entire mercantile community of
Los Angeles, in general meeting now as
sembled, urgently request the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company to fix said rate
at one fare for the round trip to all visitors
to Los Angeles during the session of the
Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows.
Resolved, further, That the President of
the Board of Trade be requested to cause
a copy of these resolutions to be immedi
ately forwarded to A. N. Towne, Esq.,
General Manager of the Southern Pacific
Railroad Coinpanv, at San Francisco,
Cal.
"A PAPER TOWN."
What Has Heroine of One Of These
Ventures.
The term "Paper town" is applied to
the new places founded in this section
during the recent boom. The term car
ries with it to the ears of the prejudiced
a strong sense of opprobrium. It is sup
posed in certain quarters that the losses
sustained by the unwary from investing
in "Paper towns" would run up into the
millions if they could all be gathered into
one exhibit.
Between 1882 and the present year of
grace the entire area of South California
grew apace in population. Hundreds of
miles of railroad were built through it,
and many industries were put on their
feet. The population of Los Angeles
county increased from 20,880 to 175,000
souls. All other counties in the section
have grown in proportion—if not quite
so rapidly as Los Angeles, yet
very greatly. In this development,
of course, many new towns have
sprung up. The real estate "boomer" is
nothing if not quick to take a hint. He
laid out a great many townsites, and to
do so invaded tho fruitful borders of
many a vineyard orchard. It was a
familar sight to see the lot slakes stand
ing in the rows of the vines or amid the
orange trees. These were the only out
ward, visible signs of a town in the
vicinity. If you went to the "boomer's"
office he would show you a city—on
paper. It had a big hotel, water works,
a bank, street car lines and all the other
belongings of a town. They were all
on paper, and as yet no "local habita
tion" but merely a "name" made the
"airy nothing" a town. Hence the
term "paper towns."
The prevalant idea away7from here is
that all the the new towns thus laid out
in these parts during the past few years
were of this delusive and deceptive na
ture—fruitless and disappointing to those
who had put their money into the "losing
quest." It is here proposed to 6ketch the
brief history of one such place as a sam
ple of nearly all of them.
SOUTH RIVERSIDE.
South Riverside is the place selected as
the example of what has been made of
"Paper Towns." About two years ago
the plain stretching from the mouth of
the Temescal Cafion to the Santa Ana
river, and lying between. River
side and the Vorba Cafion, was
a pasture for sheep and cat
tle, The Yorbas, who owned the
ranch, had pastured this mesa for many
years. About the time referred to some
one called the attention of R. B. Taylor,
then of Anaheim, to this tract. He went
up and
" Viewed the landscape o'er."
He then went on to his old home in lowa
and there enlisted the interest of ex-
Governor Merrill of that State, of Geo.
L. Joy and others of the same place.
The upshot was that they purchased the
ranch from the Yorbas, and the town of
South Riverside was duly laid out —on
paper. It took more than six months to
get the "Paper" town made, and it re
quired nearly six months more to get at
work in reality on the building the town.
South Riverside is therefore about a
year old. The California Central
railroad from San Bernardino to San
Diego via Santa Ana passes through it.
This "Papertown" to day has a hotel, a
bank, more than one hundred houses,
and is growing like a weed under a July
sun. There are between 450 and 500
souls in the place. It has the credit of
containing 150 actual voters. At the end
of five years from to-day there will be
not less than 5,000 inhabitants in South
Riverside.
WHAT THE COMPANY HAS DONE. I
The enterprising men who laid out the
town first, went to work to develop a ■
water system. First and last, they have
expended $300,000 on this. Several fine
flowing wells have been bored
in _ the Temescal can on, and
their waters piped to the
town and lands. The sales of small lots
and small farms have returned to the
company all their outlay, including the
first cost of the land aud that of piping
the water from the cafion. It is eiti
mated at a close figure that the company
has lands and town lots valued at $2,000,
--000. The Pomona and Elsinore Railway
is to pass through South Riverside. R.
B. Taylor, the original exploiter of the
scheme, is now constructing a motor
road from San Bernardino to
South Riverside. Many fruit farms
have been planted in and about
the town. A company has gone in
and laid down a plant for grinding
porphyry for grading purposes, which
kas cost tens of thousands of dollars. It
is nearly complete and will be in opera
tion within a month. When once set in
motion it will turn out ten to twenty car
loads of street paving stuff a day. The
company has orders ahead for all the ma
terial they can turn out in the next ten
or twelve months.
A tile and sewer pipe company is the
next industry to be set on foot at South
Riverside. The capital and stockholders
are both recent importations from the
East. The clay at South Riverside can
not be surpassed, and before many
months pass this industry will be in
motion.
Such is one of the "Paper towns" of
the Semi-Tropics. It may be taken as a
fair average specimen ; for while mistakes
have been made here and there in the
laying out of towns on paper, and while
in some instances the "mistakes" were
made by design—to indulge in an Irish
bull—yet in the great majority of cases
the "Paper towns" of the past few years
have panned out like South Riverside,
and sometimes "more so."
THE RELIANCE CLUB.
A Masterly Address by Colonel
Herudon.
The regular weekly meeting of the Re
liance Democratic Club was held last
night in Judge Hutton's Courtroom, with
Mr. W. L. Price in the chair and Mr. J.
S. Mackenzie acting as Secretary. The
first business done was the enrolling of
eighteen members, and then the follow
ing honorary members were elected:
Messrs. Geo. Herrmann, A. S. Hobbs, E.
P. Bryan, F. A. Eagleson, A. Steinike,
Martin Lehman, L. Whitcomb, James
O. Brien, R. Cherviß, Robert Evan Mc-
Gregor, J. Pillig, R. J. Dominguez, M.
Morris, Col. Herndon and Gen. E. E.
Hewitt. When it was announced that
Col. Herndon would address the meeting
there was great applause, and the gentle
man in question then made a most elo
quent oration. He scored the recent Re
publican speakers Williams and Fitch
very heavily, and treated the tariff and
Eurplus questions in a very logical and
masterly manner. His hit at the Repub
licans was one from the shoulder when
he described their tactics in the South,
and the various good points elucidated
were heartily applauded by the interested
audience. Col. Herndon's speech lasted
for about two hours and at its conclusion
short atldreases were made by Mr. S. B.
Lockwood, Col. O. H. Violet, Col. Flour
noy and Mr. Geo. Herrmann. A com
mittee of five was appointed for the pur
pose of getting Hazard's Pavilion or the
Turner Hall for an evening during the
next two weeks, for the purposo of hav
ing a Democratic mass meeting under
the auspices of the Reliance Club, and
for the occasion Col. Herndon has
promised to speak. The names of the
committeemen are Messrs. G. D. Rob
erts, J. S. Mackenzie, G. T. East, R. L.
Binford and M, C. Fordham. Some
minor business was then disposed of and
adjournment taken until Friday evening
next.
THE IRISH REPUBLICANS.
Holy Hogau Makes a Fiery Speech.
See Below.
The sounds of a bagpipe issuing from
the tent corner of Second and Fort
streets last evening attracted a couple of
hundred people inside, where it was an
nounced that the meeting was held under
the auspices Jof the Irish-American Re
publican club. The bagpipe played for
half an hour, and shortly after eight
o'clock a number of speakers, including
Governor Waterman, made their ap
pearance on the stage. Governor Water
man was introduced to the audience and
said that if he were well acquainted with
the situation of affairs he would say some
thing of interest but as he was not he
asked to be excused. He shortly
afterward left the tent accompanied by
several of the speakers ;who preceded
him. Perhaps the most important event
of the evening was this —

The real estate sales in this county in
the mouths of June, July, August and
September, 1887, eclipsed in volume any
thing of the kind ever put on record in
the world. The sales averaged during
the four months in question at from over
$10,000,000 to nearly $12,000,000 in each
month. That business was done largely
by local dealers. During the previous
winter speculators had cleaned out
nearly all their holdings to new settlers.
They had made large sums in these
transactions, and they proceeded to load
up for the winter campaign. In three
days sales of $1,000.0000 in magnitude
were not by any means rare. Great ranches
were bought up by syndicates and cut up
into small farms for the purpose of sel
ling them to actual settlers. During the
present year there have not been re
corded many such sales. The greatest
number of these ranches have gone into
the hands of dealers and have been cut
up. Sales of these lands in small farms
are going on at no slow pace. Nearly
2,500 transfers of realty in one month is a
figure that does not mean a dull market.
Of that number nearly 1,000 are at sums
running about $1,000 each, and about as
many more are for snms ranging below
$1,000 each. TLe lowest daily
sum of sales is nearly $75,000, while the
largest is for over a quarter of a
million. In this land of the "boom"
these transactions are supposed to indi
cate a quiet market; but in any other
section they would be brave Agues in
deed. There is certainly no wild rush
going on in speculation. The dealing is
strictly legitimate; purchases are made
by actual settlers and are for immediate
improvement. The feeling is one of
great confidence in real property.
Holders have cut up their accounts;
they are able to see just where they
stand; there is an utter absence of selling
pressure, and a strong feeling of
certainty that the coming winter
will be marked by a very large
influx of people from the East who will
be home-seekers, and as such buyers of
real property. At this particular" season
of the year it is nearly always easier to
buy a piece of property at a rather mod
erate price than is the case later in the
year, when there are three times as
many enquirers in the market and when
holders are sure of effecting a sale to
morrow if they fail to land a customer
to-day. This has been the rule all the
years, with the singlo exception of 1887.
This year will follow the rule rather than
the exception which proves it.
A Striking; Cartoon.
This week's Cactus has a striking car
toon on the subject of the attempt of
Book, Sinsabaugh, the Timet et al., to
bounce Chief Cuddy. The conspirators
are represented as a gang of Apaches,
who have tied Cuddy to a tree, and are
performing their war dance around the
bound captive. But Steve White appears
upon the scene, stripped as an athlete,
and armed with a constitutional club,
with which he is about to give the sav
ages a fine lesson in object teaching.
The champion is backed by a figure of
Los Angeles, holding in one hand the
scales of fair play, and in the other the
sword of justice. As a cartoon, this is
the best we have seen from the pencil of
Carl Browne.
