In  presenting  to  the  public  the  Oakland  Directory  for  1874,  the  second  vol- 
ume of  the  work  issued  by  the  present  compiler,  he  respectfully  directs  atten- 
tion to  the  useful  and  interesting  character  o'f  the  different  subjects  embraced 
within  its  pages.  The  historical  and  statistical  references  comprise  a  mass  of 
valuable  information  connected  with  the  history  of  Oakland,  including  a  state- 
ment of  building  improvements,  and  a  review  of  the  manufacturing  enter- 
prises since  July,  1872.  The  articles  on  Land  Titles,  Population,  and  Fi- 
nances are  worthy  of  special  attention.  Tlic  Appendix  contains  the  Charter 
of  the  City  of  Oakland,  the  Acts  of  the  Legislature  establishing  the  Board  of 
Education  and  the  Police  Court,  opening  and  improving  the  Public  Streets, 
etc.;  and  the  ordinances  of  the  city  with  reference  to  Licences,  Public  Health, 
Nuisances,  and  City  Wharf,  with  the  different  amendments  to  date,  to  which 
have  been  added  abstracts  of  several  important  legal  decisions  affecting  the 
same  :  the  whole  presenting  a  department  of  information  concerning  the  laws 
of  the  City  of  Oakland,  not  to  be  found  in  any  other  publication.  The  Ala- 
meda division  of  the  work  contains,  in  addition  to  a  list  of  residents,  the 
Town  Charter  and  a  list  of  the  officers  of  the  local  government  ;  the  officers 
of  the  different  societies,  churches,  etc.,  and  a  variety  of  other  interesting  data 
of  a  local  character. 

The  number  of  references  contained  in  the  Oakland  Department  of  the 
present  volume  is  5,369,  of  which  4,561  are  adult  males.  These  figures,  com- 
pared with  those  published  in  the  Directory  issued  in  August,  1872,  4,004 
(Oakland  3,350,  Brooklyn  654),  exhibit  an  increase  of  557,  or  about  fourteen 
per  cent.  Population,  January  1,  1874,  estimated  at  16,500.  The  number  of 
references  in  the  Alameda  Directory  is  358,  of  which  291  are  adult  males. 
The  population  of  Alameda  Township  is  estimated  at  about  2,000.  Thorough 
and  reliable  statistics  on  these  subjects  will  be  found  on  page  26. 

It  was  intended  to  include  in  the  present  volume,  a  map  of  the  City  of 
Oakland,  but  owing  to  the  rapid  growth  of  the  city  and  the  extension  of  its 
limits  during  the  last  year  and  the  numerous  changes  incident  thereto,  it  has 
been  deemed  advisable  to  omit  the  old  map  as  being  insufficient  for  present 
reference.  A  new  map  is  now  being  compiled  by  official  authority  which 
will  be  published  in  the  Directory  for  1875. 

The  new  system  of  numbering  the  buildings  adopted  during  the  past  year, 
has  greatly  facilitated  the  labors  of  our  canvassers,  and  will,  when  thoroughly 
carried  into  effect,  prove  a  measure  of  great  public  convenience. 

The  compiler  tenders  his  acknowledgments  for  the  favors  extended  during 
the  progress  of  his  labors,  to  "William  D.  Harwood,  Esq.,  for  valuable  and 
interesting  contributions  to  the  Historical  and  General  Keview;  to  Dr.  G.  E. 
Sherman,  for  valuable  mortuary  statistics  ;  and  to  the  different  officers  of  the 
City  Government,  especially  to  H.  Hillebrand,  Esq.,  City  Clerk;  to  Captain 
F.  B,  Tarbett,  and  to  Edward  Hoskins,  Esq.,  he  is  under  obligations  for  val- 
uable information:  also,  to  the  citizens  of  Oakland,  for  their  uniform  cour- 
tesy; and  to  the  patrons  of  the  work,  for  their  substantial  evidences  of  sym- 
pathy and  good  will.

HISTORICAL  AND  GENERAL  REVIEW. 


DECEMBEK  1st,  1873. 


Natural  Advantages  of  Oakland,   and  her  Progress. 

The  earlier  residents  of  Oak- 
land were  induced  to  become 
dwellers  here  because  the  cli- 
mate was  superior  to  that  on 
the  western  side  of  the  Bay, 
and  because  the  surroundings 
were  in  every  way  more  beau- 
tiful and  attractive.  These  are 
the  gi-eat  natural  advantages 
operating  in  favor  of  Oakland, 
and  from  their  character  they 
must  be  perpetual.  Oakland  is' 
a  city  of  residences.  The  vast 
majority  of  her  people  are  inter- 
ested in  business  at  the  metrop- 
olis, but  every  part  of  California  is  represented  in  her  popula- 
tion. The  establishment  of  the  State  University  and  the  devel- 
opment of  a  perfect  system  of  public  schools  in  the  city  are 
next  in  importance  to  the  natural  advantage  of  climate  and 
healthfulness. 

This  educational  system  is  such  that  a  child  six  years  of  age 
can  enter  at  one  of  the  primary  schools  and  pass  through  the 
successive  classes  until  fully  qualified  to  enter  the  State  Univer- 
sity. The  University  itself  is  upon  the  borders  of  the  city.  Thus 
parents  can  obtain  for  their  sons  and  daughters  educational  facili- 
ties now  equal  to  any  in  the  United  States.  The  extensive  knowl- 
edge of  this  fact  tends  to  hasten  the  influx  of  population.  The 
people  of  the  city  have  done  much  to  increase  its  attractions  and 
are  now  putting  forward  well-directed  efforts  to  give  to  the 
place  a  commercial  importance  of  its  own.  The  half-million 
dollars  expended  in  street  improvements  have  given  miles  of 
splendid  driveways.    The  liberal  spirit  of  the  people  in  maintain-

10  OAKLAND     DIRECTORY. 

ing  a  system  of  public  schools,  the  best  in  the  State,  has  been 
well  rewarded.  Large  tracts  of  land  have  been  rendered  acces- 
sible by  street  railroads.  A  cheap  and  well-appointed  ferry  be- 
tween Oakland  and  San  Francisco  has  grown  up  as  a  natural  re- 
sult, and  we  now  have  accommodations  that  are  somewhat  in  ad- 
vance of  the  present  demands  of  the  city.  There  is  half -hourly 
communication  during  the  busier  parts  of  the  day,  and  hourly 
communication  during  the  time  when  travel  is  lightest.  The 
Central  Pacific  Railroad  Company  has  done  well  with  the  people 
of  Oakland.  Its  jDolicy  has  been  to  accelerate  the  growth  of  the 
city  and  increase  its  prosperity.  As  the  favorite  place  for  resi- 
dences, the  position  of  Oakland  was  long  since  assured. 

More  than  twenty  years  ago,  there  were  people  in  Oakland 
who  had  deliberately  formed  the  opinion  that  whenever 
the  transcontinental  railroad  should  be  built,  its  western  ter- 
minus would  be  in  this  city,  and  that  the  place  would  become 
one  of  great  commercial  importance .  This  idea  has  been  con- 
tinuously cherished,  and  the  hopes  of  the  most  earnest  friends  of 
Oakland  are  likely  to  be  realized.  The  terminus  of  the  over- 
land railway  is  fixed  here.  The  pier  extending  to  Groat  Island 
is  a  perishable  structure,  that  can  be  used  only  three  or  four 
years  more,  and  attention  has  for  some  time  been  given  to  prep- 
arations for  a  change  of  business  to  this  mainland.  The  im- 
provement of  the  San  Antonio  Creek,  as  a  harbor  for  the  largest 
sea-going  vessels,  is  sure  to  be  made.  The  change  that  will  take 
place  upon  the  completion  of  that  work  must  inevitably  be  great 
and  important,  and  it  must  result  in  transfemng  to  the  east  side 
of  the  Bay  a  veiy  large  amount  of  commerce,  that  will  build  up 
many  branches  of  business  now  unknown  here,  and  in  a  measure 
alter  the  character  of  the  city  and  render  it  to  a  greater  extent 
self-sustaining.  While  Nature  has  dealt  very  liberally  with  Oak- 
land, the  people  have  not  been  inactive.  They  have  evinced  a 
detennination  to  do  for  themselves  everything  that  is  possible. 
A  partial  improvement  of  the  harbor  is  now  in  progress,  and  it  is 
expected  that  this  will  soon  be  followed  with  work  ordered  by 
the  Federal  Grovernment. 

The  more  prominent  events  of  the  year  are  the  annexation  of 
Brooklyn  and  the  removal  of  the  county  seat  from  San  Leandro 
to  a  point  in  East  Oakland,  somewhat  more  ascessible.  Brook- 
lyn has  always  been  virtually  a  part  of  Oakland,  advancing  as  it 
advanced,  and  suffering  fi'om  any  causes  that  tended  to  retard 
the  progress  of  Oakland.  The  contemplated  harbor  improvement 
will  be  of  incalculable  benefit  to  that  part  of  the  city,  doing  for 
it,  comparatively,  more  than  for  the  Oakland  peninsula.  It  is 
the  site  of  some  of  the  more  important  manufacturing  establish- 
ments now  in  operation.  In  annexing  themselves  to  Oakland, 
the  people  of  Brooklyn  acted  with  prudence  and  forethought. 
The  removal  of  the  county  seat  from  San  Leandro  has  been  of 
material  convenience  to  the  public,  saving  much  time  and  trouble 
and  rendering  unnecessary  a  journey  of  nine  miles  in  order  to 
reach  the  seat  of  justice  of  the  county.

NATURAL    ADVANTAGES    OP    OAKLAND.  11 

The  citj'  assessment  rolls,  from  the  fiscal  year  1863-4  to  date, 
have  been  as  follows  : 

Year.  Amount  of  Assessment. 

18G3-  4 $    794,121 

18G4-  5 970,125 

1865-  6 1,107,949 

1866-  7 1,434,800 

1867-  8 1,832,428 

1868-  9 3,363,478 

1869-70 4,256,702 

1870-  1 4,563,737 

1871-  2 5,215,704 

1872-  3 6,647,039 

1873-  4 18,539,303 

Until  the  present  year  the  assessment  has  been  announced  to 
have  been  at  one-third  of  the  actual  value  of  the  property  ;  but 
the  custom  has  been  changed,  and  property  is  now  cited  for 
what  is  deemed  its  market  value.  There  has  been  a  correspond- 
ing reduction  in  the  rate  of  taxation — which  is  seventy  cents  on 
the  one  hundred  dollars. 

The  city  wharf  was  completed  in  August,  1872,  and  its  first 
year's  business  amounted  to  $3,283.67.  Charges  had  been  fixed 
so  as  to  produce  revenue  enough  to  pay  the  interest  on  its  cost 
and  running  expenses.  It  has  done  little  more  than  this  during 
the  first  year,  and  the  amount  of  business  has  so  greatly  in- 
creased that  at  the  end  of  the  second  year  there  will  be  a  con- 
siderable sinking  fund  to  redeem  some  of  the  bonds  issued  to 
raise  funds  for  its  construction.  The  freight  landed  on  this 
wharf  during  the  year  amounted  to  20,634  tons.  The  wharf  is 
now  used  to  very  nearly  its  full  capacity,  and  if  the  city  owned 
the  site  for  another,  it  would  be  justified  in  building  a  second 
one. 

The  erection  of  the  Grand  Central  Hotel  is  an  event  of  much 
local  importance.  In  SLze  and  elegance  it  is  not  inferior  to  any 
hotel  on  the  Pacific  Coast,  and  visitors  from  difierent  parts  of 
the  State,  and  from  the  East,  will  be  sure  to  entertain  a  more 
favorable  opinion  of  Oakland  on  account  of  this  enterprise. 

The  Oakland  Street  Railroad  Company  has  extended  its  track 
from  Temascal  to  Berkeley,  and  a  branch  has  been  constructed 
from  the  main  line,  at  the  junction  of  Broadway  and  Fourteenth 
Street,  along  San  Pablo  Avenue,  for  a  distance  of  two  miles. 
The  business  of  these  roads  has  kept  somewhat  in  advance  of  the 
general  growth  of  the  city,  so  large  a  proportion  of  the  newly 
erected  dwelling-houses  being  is  the  suburbs. 

The  Oakland  Gaslight  Company  has  increased  the  capacity  of 
its  works  by  erecting  a  holder  which  will  contain  ninety  thou- 
sand cubic  feet  of  gas,  and  by  enlarging  its  works  in  other  re- 
spects, in  order  to  meet  the  increased  demands  made  upon 
them. 

The  Contra  Costa  Water  Company  has  lately  commenced  the

building  of  a  dam  on  the  San  Leandro  Creek,  at  a  point  about 
eight  miles  from  the  central  part  of  Oakland.     Yery  extensive 

'  purchases  of  real  estate  and  water  rights  have  been  made,  and 
when  the  work  now  in  progress  is  completed,  there  will  be  an 
artificial  lake  covering  12,000  acres  of  land,  and  having  an  aver- 
age depth  of  100  feet.  From  the  bar  of  the  new  dam  to  the 
company's  pipes  in  East  Oakland  the  distance  is  but  six  miles. 
The  lake  will  have  a  capacity  of  forty  thousand  million  gallons  of 
water,  and  the  stream  flowing  into  it  and  the  adjacent  water- 
sheds will  enable  the  company  to  furnish  one  hundred  million 

^  gallons  daily.  If  these  estimates  by  the  company  be  correct, 
Oakland  has  within  reach,  at  the  lowest  cost,  a  water  supj^ly 
that  will  be  ample  for  all  time. 


Land  Titles. 

ABSTBACT    OF   THE    ORIGIN   OF    THE    TITLE     TO    THE    LAND    ON    WHICH   THE 
CITY    OF    OAKLAND    IS    SITUATED. 

During  the  first  few  years  after  the  settlement  of  the  city,  it 
was  the  popular  belief  that  the  "  Squatter  Title  "  was  valid,  and 
most  of  the  property  was  purchased  from  those  who  had  origi- 
nally taken  possession.  After  the  amount  of  litigation  that  is  usu- 
ally required  to  establish  the  legality  of  a  Mexican  grant,  the 
Peralta  title  obtained  recognition,  and  has  withstood  every  at- 
tack subsequently  made  upon  it.  "We  append  the  outlines  of  an 
abstract  of  title  to  any  city  lot: 

1.  Grrant  from  the  Mexican  Government  to  Luis  Maria  Pe- 
ralta, of  the  "  Eancho  San  Antonio,"  embracing  the  lands  upon 
which  the  City  of  Oakland  is  located.    Dated  October  18th,  1822. 

2.  In  1842,  Luis  Maria  Peralta  made  a  division  of  the  Eancho 
San  Antonio  among  his  four  sons,  Ignacio,  Antonio,  Domingo, 
and  Vinoente,  and  put  them  in  possession  of  their  respective 
portions.  Vincente  Peralta  received  that  portion  on  which  the 
City  of  Oakland  is  situated. 

3.  In  1851,  Luis  Maria  Peralta  executed  an  instrument  pur- 
porting to  be  a  will,  wherein  he  ratified  and  confirmed  the  divis- 
ion of  the  Rancho  San  Antonio  among  his  four  sons,  which  in- 
strument, the  Supreme  Court  of  California  says,  estops  the  heirs 
of  Luis  Maria  Peralta  from  denying  said  gift  to  his  sons.  [See 
17  Cal.  Reps.,  Adams  v.  Lansing.]  The  invalidity  of  title  derived 
from  the  other  heirs  than  the  sons  of  Luis  Maria  Peralta  is  also 
declared  by  the  United  States  Supreme  Court,  in  a  case  growing 
out  of  the  "  Pretermitted  Heir"  title,  decided  in  the  early  part 
of  this  year  (1872)  and  not  yet  reported. 

4.  In  1854,  the  Board  of  Land  Commissioners  confirmed  the 
northern  portion  of  the  Eancho,  embracing  the  City  of  Oakland, 
to  Vincente  and  Domingo  Peralta  ;  and  the  same  was  afterwards, 
in  1855,  confirmed  by  the  United  States  District  Court,  and  still 
later,  at  the  December  term  in  1856,  by  the  Supreme  Court  of 
the  United  Statee.     (See  17  Howard.)

March  27th,  1860. 

Subsequent  to  the  chain  of  conveyances  traced,  the  title  is 
vested  in  numerous  owners,  there  being  no  other  general  claims. 
All  the  technicalities  and  defects  which  ingenuity  can  discover 
have  been  brought  to  notice.  The  numerous  adverse  titles  had 
for  years  hung  over  property-holders  like  an  incubus,  and  in  the 
early  part  of  the  year  1869  the  people  began  an  organized  move- 
ment  to  defeat  them.     The   position  of   affaii-s  was  somewhat

critical.  The  city  was  rapiflly  growing,  and  to  allow  the  idea  to 
go  abroad  that  titles  were  insecure  would  check  the  progress  of 
the  city  and  cause  incalulable  mischief.  Sound  business  policy 
overcame  the  desire  to  make  a  bitter  fight,  however,  and  the 
holders  of  the  claims  were  induced  to  dispose  of  them  at  rates 
that  were  trivial.  The  specific  claims  were  the  Pretermitted  Heirs' 
title,  the  Sisters'  title,  the  Irving  title,  and  the  Cost  title,  and 
these  comprised  all  general  titles  asserted  by  anybody  to  land 
within  the  City  of  Oakland.  These  titles  were,  by  their  several 
owners,  conveyed  to  Henry  Hillebrand,  the  City  Clerk,  who  acted 
as  a  Tnistee,  and  by  him  conveyance  was  made  to  the  several 
j)roperty-holders.  Nearly  all  the  land  in  the  city  is  now  held  by  a 
perfect  title,  the  Hillebrand  deed  removing  all  the  clouds.  These 
titles,  except  the  Cost  title,  still  cloud  property  outside  of  the 
old  charter  line.  The  principal  ones,  the  Sisters  and  the  Preter- 
mitted Heirs,  are  virtually  defeated,  and  the  property-holders,  to 
save  trouble  and  annoyance,  have  quite  generally  purchased  the 
other  claims. 

The  Kate  Hayes  Title  covers  that  portion  of  Oakland  township 
outside  of  the  "  Encinal  Line,"  as  laid  down  on  our  map.  The 
Supreme  Court  of  the  State  has  sustained  a  decision  rendered  by 
E.  W.  McKinstry,  Judge  of  the  Twelfth  District  Court,  grant- 
ing a  new  trial  on  the  motion  made  by  the  defendants  (the  prop- 
erty-holders). That  decision  was  fatal  to  the  claim,  which,  in 
itself,  was  but  for  a  trifling  interest.  A  new  trial  has  not  yet 
been  had,  and  the  result  is  regarded  as  a  foregone  conclusion, 
the  law  of  the  case  having  been  decided  beyond  appeal. 

Water  and  Gas. 

About  one-third  of  the  population  of  Oakland  use  water  ob- 
tained from  the  Contra  Costa  Water  Company,  and  the  remain- 
der procure  it  from  wells.  By  digging  to  a  depth  of  twenty  feet 
a  sujDply  of  pure  fresh  water  can  be  obtained ;  but  on  account  of 
the  increased  size  of  the  city,  and  the  prevalent  fear  that  well 
water  is  becoming  contaminated  with  sewage,  many  persons 
are  abandoning  their  wells  and  using  the  water  that  is  obtained 
from  the  mountain  streams.  The  Contra  Costa  Water  Company 
commenced  operations  in  the  latter  part  of  the  year  1866,  and 
since  that  time  about  fifty  miles  of  pipe  have  been  laid.  Water 
is  obtained  from  the  Temascal  Creek.  At  its  eastern  branch, 
five  miles  from  Oakland,  a  canon  has  been  dammed,  and  an 
artificial  lake,  six  hundred  feet  wide  and  three-quarters  of  a  mile 
long,  has  been  created.  The  water  is  seventy  feet  deep  in  win- 
ter, and  the  capacity  of  the  reservoir  is  two  hundred  million  gal- 
lons. The  daily  consumption  of  water  varies  from  half  a  mil- 
lion to  a  million  of  gallons  per  day,  according  to  the  extent  to 
which  people  may  irrigate  theii-  gardens.  The  company  has  also 
appropriated  the  water  of  the  Fruit  Vale  Creek  and  built  a  res- 
ervoir there,  with  a  capacity  of  one  million  gallons.  In  case 
the  mountain  streams  run  low,  use  is  made  of  artesian  wells  in

Brooklyn,  the  water  from  which  is  forced  by  steam  power  into 
the  mains. 

In  view  of  a  constantly  increasing  population  and  a  rapid 
growth  of  permanent  improvement,  with  a  consequent  increased 
demand,  many  have  expressed  a  fear  that  the  water  supply 
would  fail  entirely,  in  the  event  of  a  dry  season,  and  leave  the 
city,  in  the  more  densely  populated  localities,  where  the  well- 
water  is  not  fit  for  use,  on  account  of  contamination  by  drainage, 
without  water,  and  the  whole  at  the  mercy  of  the  flames.  Such 
a  fear,  it  will  be  seen,  is  unfounded,  for  the  company,  in  order 
to  meet  the  increased  demand,  has  acquired,  by  purchase,  the 
water  rights  of  San  Leandro  Creek  to  the  upper  end  of  the  ca- 
fion,  two  miles  above  San  Leandro.  At  that  point  a  suitable 
dam  is  being  erected,  so  as  to  form  a  lake  of  the  valley  above, 
which  will  contain,  when  completed,  forty  thousand  million  gal- 
tons  of  water,  equal  to  a  daily  supply  of  one  hundred  million 
gallons,  a  quantity  sufficient  for  the  supply  of  a  population  of 
one  million. 

The  location  of  this  dam  is  about  eight  miles  from  Oakland, 
and  it  wJl  be  so  far  completed  as  to  bring  in  the  water  for  use 
in  1874,  with  an  average  pressure  in  the  city  of  Oakland  of  two 
hundred  feet. 

The  completion  of  this  enterprise  will  give  Oakland  a  first-class 
water  supply,  equal  to  the  best  in  the  United  States. 

The  purity  of  the  water  supplied  by  the  Contra  Costa  "Water 
Company  has  lately  been  tested  by  the  State  Assayer,  who  certi- 
fies as  follows :  "I  consider  the  water  analyzed  to  be  of  excel- 
lent quality,  and  well  adapted  to  domestic  use." 

The  city  is  furnished  illuminating  gas  by  the  Oakland  Gas- 
light Company,  which  commenced  operations  January  1st,  1867. 
The  city  entered  into  a  ten-year  contract  in  1868,  to  light  the 
streets.  The  company  receives  19  cents  per  night  for  each  lamp. 
The  annual  amount  of  the  bills  for  lighting  the  streets  in  the 
city  is  $15,000.  The  company  has  laid  about  eighteen  miles  of 
mains.  The  works  are  located  on  the  corner  of  Washington  and 
First  streets,  and  have  a  capacity  of  two  hundred  thousand  cubic 
feet  per  day.  The  price  charged  to  consumers  is  fom*  dollars 
and  fifty  cents  per  thousand  cubic  feet. 

The  Railroad  System. 

It  is  broadly  asserted  that  Oakland  is  the  center  of  the  railroad 
system  of  the  Pacific  Coast,  and  a  mere  glance  at  any  railroad 
map  shows  that  such  is  the  case.  The  several  lines  of  railroad 
in  operation  in  California  are  either  owned  or  controlled  by  the 
Central  Pacific  Railroad  Company,  and  they  all  concentrate  in 
this  city.  Words  cannot  convey  this  idea  as  forcibly  as  any 
railroad  map  and  an  accompanying  table  of  distances.  Not  only 
the  railroads  now  in  existence,  but  those  projected  and  likely  to 
be  completed  within  the  next  few  years,  converge  to  the  same 
point.     As  San  Francisco  now  is,  and  ever  must  be,  the  metrop-

olis  of  the  Pacific  Coast,  the  managers  of  railroads  are  compelled 
to  locate  their  terminal  improvements  in  Oakland,  because  they 
further  their  own  interests  by  so  doing.  The  Central  Pacific 
Railroad  Company  owns  seveilty  acres  of  land  at  the  Oakland 
Point,  used  as  a  site  for  round-houses  and  work-shops.  A  plan- 
ing-mill  has  been  in  operation  upwards  of  one  year,  and  in  it  is 
prepared  all  the  timber  used  in  the  constructioii  and  repair  of 
bridges  on  the  line  of  the  road.  At  the  present  time  over  7,000,- 
000  feet  of  lumber  and  the  materials  for  the  construction  of  a 
large  and  commodious  freight-boat,  are  on  hand.  The  city  has 
refrained  from  any  attempt  to  open  streets  through  this  tract  of 
land,  at  the  request  of  the  Company,  upon  representing  that  this 
ground  is  required  for  the  purposes  we  have  named,  and  in  cut- 
ting it  up  by  numerous  streets  its  usefulness  would  be  so  im- 
paired that  it  would  be  necessary  for  the  Company  to  seek  for 
accommodations  elsewhere.  The  Company  also  owns  an  area  of 
three  hundred  and  fifty  acres  on  the  water  front,  extending  from 
the  former  tract  toward  Goat  Island,  with  a  frontage  of  nearly 
half  a  mile  on  ship  channel.  The  Comi^any  has  recently  made 
extensive  purchases  of  real  estate  near  the  head  of  the  San  An- 
tonio Creek,  and  it  owns  a  large  tract  of  hilly  land  a  few  miles 
south  from  Brooklyn,  from  which  can  be  obtained  an  ahnost  un- 
limited supply  of  earth  for  filling  in  and  reclaiming  marsh  and 
tide  lands.  The  wharf  projecting  from  the  Oakland  Point  is 
eleven  thousand  feet  in  length,  and  at  the  end  of  it  there  are 
twenty-six  and  one  half  feet  of  water  at  low  tide,  and  thirty- 
three  and  one  half  feet  of  water  at  high  tide,  upon  which  have 
been  erected  extensive  depots,  raikoad  offices,  warehouses,  and 
ample  facilities  for  the  storage  of  grain,  etc.  The  structure  is  built 
in  the  most  firm  and  enduring  manner,  and  nothing  has  been 
omitted  that  engineering  and  mechanical  skill  could  suggest. 
The  overland  trains  and  the  accommodation  trains  for  San  Jose, 
Sacramento,  Stockton,  and  Marysville  are  run  over  the  track  laid 
through  First  Street,  and  the  local  trains  are  run  over  the  Sev- 
enth Street  track.  Communication  between  San  Francisco  and 
Alameda  is  now  maintained  by  a  branch  line  of  the  Oakland 
road,  which  was  completed  on  the  first  of  October  last.  Its  dis- 
tance is  about  four  miles,  extending  from  Harrison  and  Seventh 
streets  and  crossing  San  Antonio  Creek  by  a  substantial  bridge 
seven  hundred  and  eighty-six  feet  in  length,  with  a  draw  of  two 
openings  of  eighty  feet  each.  Ten  trips  are  made  daily.  The 
Oakland  Ferry  service  has  been  much  improved  by  the  discon- 
tinuance of  the  old  route  to  Alameda.  Twenty-five  trips  each 
way  are  now  made  daily,  and,  during  business  hours,  one  is 
made  every  thirty  minutes.  At  Broadway  and  Brooklyn  Stations, 
commodious  accommodations  have  been  provided  for  passen- 
gers, and  at  the  latter  a  round-house  for  locomotives  has  been 
recently  erected. 

At  the  Central  Pacific  Railroad  Company's  Wharf,  from  June 
30th,  1872,  to  June  30th,  1873,  one  hundred  and  ten  vessels 
have  received  their  cargoes  of  grain,  aggregating  161,134  tons.

DRIVES    AND    PLEASURE    RESORTS.  17 

The  street  railroad  system  of  Oakland  is  very  comprehensive, 
all  of  the  streets  of  present  or  prospective  importance  beinj^ 
covered  by  a  franchise;  but  there  are  only  two  companies  that 
have  expended  any  money  or  shown  any  signs  of  vitality.  The 
Oakland  Kailroad  Company's  franchise  covers  Bi-oadway  from 
the  water  front  to  the  charter  line,  and  thence  by  the  most  direct 
route  to  Berkeley.  The  road  is  built  and  provided  with  rolling 
stock.  It  is  five  and  one  half  miles  long.  Thirteen  one-horse 
cars  run  regularly,  and,  when  occasion  requires,  six  two-horse 
cars  and  six  flats  are  added.  Fifty-one  horses  are  kept  in  the 
comijany's  stable  at  Temescal.  The  San  Pablo  Avenue  branch 
of  the  Oakland  Eailroad  Company  extends  to  a  point  near  the 
Oakland  Trotting  Park,  a  distance  of  two  miles.  Three  cars 
run  regularly  every  fifteen  minutes  during  the  day. 

The  Oakland,  Brooklyn,  and  Fruit  Vale  Railroad  is  completed 
from  the  crossing  of  Broadway  and  Seventh  streets,  in  Oakland, 
to  the  central  portion  of  the  town  of  Brooklyn,  a  distance  of  two 
miles,  and  the  business  transacted  is  about  sufficient  to  pay  cur- 
rent expenses  and  interest  on  the  investment.  It  is  contemplat- 
ed to  extend  this  road  to  the  County  Court  House,  a  distance  of 
several  blocks  from  its  present  terminus.  Trips  are  made  every 
half  hour. 

Some  progress  has  been  made  in  the  construction  of  the  Ala- 
meda and  Piedmont  Springs  Eailroad.  The  track  has  been  laid 
a  short  distance  from  Alameda. 

The  street  railroads  projected  promise  to  be  remunerative  en- 
terprises. The  benefit  of  such  imjDrovements  is  very  great,  a  pop- 
ulation of  several  hundred  persons  having  been  drawn  to  the 
%dcinity  of  Temescal  through  the  influence  of  the  Oakland  Rail- 
road. As  communication  between  diiferent  parts  of  the  city  is 
made  convenient  and  cheap,  its  growth  will  be  accelerated,  and 
the  value  of  real  estate,  in  every  locality,  will  be  enhanced. 

Rides,  Drives,    and  Pleasure  Resorts. 

The  smooth  macadamized  streets  within  the  limits  of  the  city 
afford  many  miles  of  pleasant  driving,  and  if  there  were  no  other 
resort,  Oakland  would  be  unusually  attractive.  There  is  a  net- 
work of  well-made  roads  through  the  Oakland  Valley  centeiing 
at  Berkeley.  The  Telegraph  and  San  Pablo  avenues  are  the 
great  drive-ways  to  the  north  of  the  city,  and  from  them  radiate 
numerous  roads  that  lead  into  the  hills.  A  fashionable  and  beau- 
tiful drive  is  that  leading  to  Piedmont  Springs,  five  miles  from 
Oakland.  From  the  Piedmont  Springs  Hotel,  which  offers  every 
attraction  for  the  comfort  and  enjoyment  of  its  patrons,  "  per- 
haps the  finest  and  most  complete  view  of  the  Bay  and  its  sur- 
roundings is  obtained,  while  the  "  Bushy  Dell  "  hard  by,  a  ravine 
filled  with  a  luxuriant  growth  of  shrubbery  and  trees,  is  a  most 
delightful  and  romantic  spot,  "svith  excellent  made  walks  mn- 
ning  through  it.  In  this  dell  the  Sulphur  Springs  are  situated, 
the  waters  of  which  are  strongly  impregnated  with  sulphur,  mag-

nesia,  and  iron.  They  have  medicinal  properties  of  great  value. 
No  place  of  resort  can  be  more  favorably  recommended  to  the 
notice  of  our  Eastern  visitors^  while  the  city  man  out  of  health 
will  find  them  veiy  conveniently  situated."  From  Piedmont 
there  are  good  roads  running  through  the  mountains,  and  there 
is  a  labyrinth  of  pleasant  drives.  The  mountain  scenery  is  very 
fine,  and  it  is  difficult  to  realize  that  so  great  a  change  can  be 
found  in  a  half -hour's  ride  from  Oakland. 

The  drive-way  on  the  eastei-n  bank  of  Lake  Merritt  is  also  a 
fashionable  resort.  The  system  of  roads  in  East  Oakland  is  quite 
complete,  and  the  visitor  can  follow  any  road  that  he  may  observe 
without  danger  of  being  led  into  an  unpleasant  or  dangerous  lo- 
cality. The  most  important  place  of  pubhc  resort,  especially  on 
Sundays,  is  Badger's  Central  Park,  East  Oakland,  where  there 
are  highly  ornamented  grounds,  a  large  pavilion  for  dancing, 
and  all  of  the  attractions  ordinarily  found  at  j)ublic  gardens. 
That  the  excellent  roads  in  and  around  Oakland  are  appreciated 
by  visitors  is  attested  by  the  fact  that  Oakland  has  six  large  liv- 
ery stables,  all  of  them  doing  a  prosjDcrous  business. 

BuiTding    Improvements. 

The  number  of  buildings  erected  in  Oakland  during  the  period 
July  1,  1872,  to  December  1, 1873,  will  bear  a  favorable  compari- 
son with  that  of  previous  years.  East  and  West  Oakland  pre- 
sent very  gratifying  evidences  of  prosperity.  One  firm  of  con- 
tractors alone,  Messrs.  Power  &,  Ough,  estimate  the  amount  of 
their  engagements  for  the  time  refen-ed  to  at  $500,000,  included 
in  which  is  the  Orand  Central  Hotel,  one  of  the  most  elegant 
and  costly  buildings  in  the  city.  It  is  a  block  in  length,  from 
Webster  to  Harrison  streets,  four  stories  high,  and  is  covered 
with  a  Mansard  roof,  the  only  deviation  from  its  prevailing  style 
of  Italian  architecture.  Three  large  towers  embellish  the  struct- 
ure,  one  at  the  center  of  the  roof  and  one  at  each  end.  In  each 
tower  there  is  a  tank,  always  kept  full,  containing  5,000  gallons 
of  water.  There  are  three  front  entrances,  the  main  one  in  the 
center  of  the  hotel,  and  the  right  and  left  half-way  between  the 
main  entrance  and  the  ends  of  the  building.  A  porch  extends 
from  each  entrance  to  the  edge  of  the  sidewalk,  so  that  the 
guests  may  stej)  from  their  carriages  to  the  sidewalk,  completely 
sheltered  from  the  rain  or  the  hot  sun.  The  vestibule  at  the 
main  entrance  has  a  tesselated  flooring  of  artificial  marble.  The 
ceiling  rises  eighteen  feet  in  the  clear.  Laurel,  oak,  and  walnut 
are  represented  in  the  graining,  which  has  been  executed  with 
considerable  care.  Passing  through  a  pair  of  swinging  glass 
doors,  the  visitor  enters  the  office  at  the  right-hand  side,  whence 
he  may  ascend  to  the  upper  floor  by  the  elevator.  The  reading- 
room  and  telegraph  office  are  on  the  left-hand  side  of  the  vesti- 
bule, and  can  be  reached  directly  from  the  street  without  passing 
through  the  hall.

one  from  the  rear,  communicate  with  the  upper  floors  of  the  build- 
ing. There  are  two  main  parlors  on  the  second  floor,  with  fine, 
large  windows  facing  the  street.  A  wide  hall  runs  through  the 
center  of  the  building  on  all  the  floors.  On  this  floor,  on  the 
other  side  of  the  hall,  are  the  dining  and  breakfast  saloons,  con- 
nected with  the  hall  by  sliding  doors.  The  sleeping  rooms  con- 
nected with  the  private  parlors  are  so  arranged  as  to  be  used 
either  singly  or  in  suites.  The  third  floor  contains  suites  and 
single  rooms  furnished  in  very  good  taste. 

r  The  building  is  about  three  hundred  feet  long,  and  from  sev- 
enty to  one  hundred  feet  in  depth.  The  rooms  are  all  of  good 
\  size,  and  well  lighted  and  ventilated.  The  sleeping  rooms  are 
twelve  and  a  half  by  fourteen  feet;  the  private  parlors  are  thir- 
teen and  a  half  by  eighteen;  the  dining  hall  is  twenty  by  one 
hundred  feet,  and  the  breakfast  hall  twenty-six  by  forty-eight. 
The  tanks  are  connected  with  hydrants,  from  which  hose  extends 
to  every  part  of  the  building. 

The  design  of  the  building  was  planned  by  one  of  the  owners, 
Dr.  Samuel  Merritt.  The  other  proprietor  is  Captain  P.  S.  Wilcox, 
.  of  Oakland.     The  value  of  the  building  and  the  ground  on  which 
it  stands  is  estimated  at  $200,000. 

Convent  of  the  Sacred  Heart. — The  new  building,  although 
called  an  addition  to  the  old  convent,  contains  nearly  four  times 
the  accommodations  of  the  latter.  Its  dimensions  are  one  hun- 
dred and  seven  feet,  by  a  depth  of  seventy-two  feet.  The  build- 
ing is  four  stories,  exclusive  of  a  lofty  attic.  The  basement,  which 
is  almost  wholly  above  ground,  contains  a  large  gymnasium, 
measuring  sixty  by  twenty-two  feet,  refectories,  kitchen,  and 
store-rooms.  The  j^rincipal  floor  is  occupied  by  the  parlors, 
museum,  library,  and  large  music  hall.  The  story  above  is  de- 
voted to  class-rooms  and  study-halls,  and  the  upjDer  floor  is 
divided  into  dormitories  and  dressing-rooms.  The  building  is 
heated  by  steam,  and  provided  liberally  with  bath-rooms  and  all 
modern  conveniences.  From  one  hundred  and  fifty  to  two  hun- 
dred pupils  can  be  accommodated  with  ease,  and  that  number 
will,  in  all  probability,  be  made  up  before  the  close  of  the 
year. 

The  exterior  of  the  building  is  somewhat  Italian  in  its  archi- 
tecture. The  floor  lines  are  marked  by  ornamental  string  courses, 
and  windows  of  an  ornamental  character,  grouped  together  at 
the  end  and  central  projections,  which  relieve  the  front.  The 
entire  is  surmounted  by  a  bell-tower,  consisting  of  two  stories, 
and  rising  to  a  total  height  of  nearly  one  hundred  and  ten  feet  to 
the  top  of  the  cross.  The  lower  story  is  square,  and  decorated  with 
Doric  pilasters  and  a  boldly  projecting  cornice.  The  upper 
story  consists  of  an  octagonal  dome,  supported  by  Corinthian 
columns,  and  surmounted  by  a  ball  and  cross.  The  view  from 
this  observatory  is  magnificent,  commanding  the  bay,  the  Golden 
Gate,  Lake  Merritt,  and  a  wide  stretch  of  the  best  cultivated  and 
richest  lands  of  Alameda.  Indeed,  it  would  be  hard  to  find  a 
finer  site  for  an  academy  than  that  occupied  by  the  Sisters,  and

The  improvements  herein  referred  to  are  but  a  part  of  those 
erected  in  Oakland  during  the  period  named.  In  nearly  every 
portion  of  the  city  may  be  observed  buildings  of  an  attractive 
appearance,  completed  during  the  present  year,  and  occupied  as 
residences,  worth  from  one  to  three  thousand  dollars,  which 
might  be  included  in  the  list  as  additional  evidences  of  the  grow- 
ing prosperity  of  the  city. 

Manufacturing  Enterprises. 

The  advantages  of  Oakland,  as  a  manufacturing  center,  are 
very  great,  and  must,  in  due  time,  command  attention.  The 
city  is  connected  with  the  general  railroad  system  of  the  country, 
and  is  also  accessible  by  water,  so  that  goods  can  be  exported  by 
railroad  or  by  sea-going  vessels.  The  manufacturing  establish- 
ments in  Oakland  are  few  in  number,  but  the  business  transacted 
is  quite  respectable  in  volume. 

The  Pioneer  Planing  Mills  were  started  in  the  year  1863, 
and  in  March,  1868,  were  purchased  by  Blethen  &  Terry,  the 
present  owners.  The  business  consists  in  the  manufacture  of 
sashes,  doors,  and  blinds,  and  in  furnishing  such  mill-work  as  is 
required  in  house-building.  The  mills  are  located  on  the  south 
side  of  First  Street,  between  Broadway  and  Washington  streets, 
and  contain  the  most  valuable  and  serviceable  machinery.  The 
warehouse  and  offices  are  upon  the  opposite  side  of  First  Street.

The  Oakla>t>  Pla>txg  Mills  were  biiilt  by  Bumham,  Stande- 
ford  &  Co.,  and  have  been  in  operation  since  February,  1869,  the 
firm  name  remaining  the  same.  The  buildings,  which  are  lo- 
cated on  the  comer  of  Washington  and  First  streets,  have  been 
recently  enlarged  and  improved,  and  contain  all  the  machinery 
required  in  the  manufacture  of  doors  and  sashes,  house  trim- 
mings, etc.  Adjoining  the  Oakland  Planing  Mills  is  Blair's 
stair-building  shop,  in  which  is  prepared  nearly  all  of  the  stair- 
building  required  in  the  city. 

The  Pacifio  Luaibee  a>-d  ]\Iill  Cosipaxt  is  a  corporation,  having 
its  principal  place  of  business  at  Oakland  Point.  The  capital 
stock  is  divided  into  five  thousand  five  hundred  shares,  all  of 
which  have  been  issued — Soo  per  share  having  been  paid  in,  so 
that  the  capital  invested  amounts  $302,500.  In  addition  to 
the  land  and  buildings  at  Oakland  Point,  the  company  own 
thi-ee  thousand  acres  of  timber-land  and  a  saw-mill  in  San 
Mateo  County ;  a  flume  from  this  land  to  Pigeon  Point,  seven 
miles  long,  and  a  wharf  and  warehouse  at  the  latter  named 
place  ;  also  thirty-four  hundred  acres  of  timber-land  and  a  saw- 
mill in  Lake  County.  The  company  manufacture  all  kinds  of 
house  and  mill  wol-k,  and  furnish  lumber,  railroad  ties,  posts, 
and  cord  wood  at  any  point  on  the  coast.  J.  W.  Pearson,  Pres-

The  Ve>-tjs  Floukixg  ]\Iills  are  located  on  Third  Street,  south 
side,  between  Broadway  and  Franklin  streets,  and  are  owned  by 
Carrick,  Warner  &  Co.  The  mills  contain  two  run  of  stones, 
and  have  a  capacity  of  100  ban-els  of  flour  per  day.  The  line  of 
the  Central  Pacific  Kailroad  is  but  two  blocks  distant,  so  that 
the  products  of  the  San  Joaquin  Yalley  can  be  brought  almost  to 
the  doors  of  the  mill  by  rail.  The  proximity  to  the  wharves  is 
another  advantage  of  the  location,  rendering  it  convenient  to 
receive  gi-ain  from  the  small  vessels  that  navigate  the  Bay. 

The  Cliktox  FLOusrs-G  Mills,  located  on  the  comer  of  East 
Eleventh  Street  and  Twelfth  Avenue,  East  Oakland,  were  erected 
in  18o4.  Weston  <k  Welch  are  the  proprietors.  The  mills  contain 
six  run  of  thirty-inch  stones,  and  have  a  capacity  of  two  hun- 
dred and  twenty-five  barrels  per  twenty-four  hours.  The  engine 
by  which  the  machinery  is  propelled  is  fifty  horse-power.  The 
firm  manufacture  flour,  hominy,  oat  and  corn  meal,  etc. 

The  OA£LA^^)  Ikon  Works,  Ives,  Scoville  &  Co.  proprietors, 
are  located  on  Second  Street  between  Washington  and  Clay. 
This  firm  is  engaged  in  the  manufacture  and  repaii-  of  difierent 
kinds  of  machineiy,  and  pattern  and  model  making.  They  also 
manufacture  the  Climax  Side  Hill  Plow,  all  steel  and  wrought

in  the  market.  In  addition  to  this,  he  manufactures  an  extensive 
assortment  of  potteiy  of  an  excellent  quality;  also  terra-cotta,  of 
various  designs  and  patterns,  for  ornamenting  brick  buildings. 

The  Brooklyn  New  Pottery  and  Fire  Clay  Works,  Miller  & 
Crabb  proprietors,  are  located  on  the  comer  of  East  Twelfth  Street 
and  Nineteenth  Avenue,  East  Oakland.  This  firm  has  recently 
commenced  operations,  and  is  preparing  to  enter  extensively 
into  the  manufacture  of  terra-cotta  tlower-pots,  etc.  The  clay 
used  is  obtained  in  the  vicinity  of  the  works,  and  is  said  to  be  of 
an  excellent  quality. 

The  Manhattan  Marble  Company  of  California  commenced 
operations  January,  1873,  at  the  corner  of  First  and  Filbert 
streets.  This  company  is  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  man- 
tels, tiles,  furniture  tops,  etc.,  in  imitation  of  the  costly  European 
marbles  such  as  Sienna,  Jasper,  Malachite,  and  Lisbon.  The  arti- 
cles manufactured  are  said  to  be  unequalled  in  durability,  beauty, 
and  cheapness.  Twelve  men  are  constantly  employed,  who  turn 
out  about  fifty  or  sixty  mantels  a  month,  besides  other  work. 

Californl\.  Jute  Manufacturing  Company. — East  side  Second 
Avenue  near  East  Tenth,  East  Oakland.  Capital,  $200,000.  M. 
Cerf,  President;  P.  Susmann,  Secretary.  Manufactures  grain 
sacks,  wool  sacks,  potato  sacks,  burlaps,  and  twines,  from  jute, 
of  which  over  15,000  bales  are  imported  yearly  from  Calcutta. 
The  capacity  of  the  Company's  mill  is  about  to  be  increased  to  150 
looms,  capable  of  turning  out  five  million  sacks  per  year.  To 
manufacture  tliis  quantity,  employment  will  be  given  to  at  least 
five  hundred  men.  This  result  has  been  reached  within  three 
years,  the  growth  of  the  institution  being  unprecedented  in  the 
manufacturing  enterprises  on  this  coast.  Beyond  the  importation 
of  the  raw  material,  eveiything  is  done  on  the  premises — spin- 
ning, weaving,  sewing,  hydraulic  pressing,  etc.,  and  nothing  in 
the  way  of  machinery  is  wanting  to  reach  a  perfect  result  in  the 
operations  of  the  company.  This  corporation  has  heretofore 
been  known  as  the  Oakland  Cotton  Mills,  which  was  organized 
August  25,  1865,  by  W.  H.  Eector  and  his  three  sons.  Origin- 
ally, cotton  goods  were  manufactured,  but  the  machinery  for 
that  work  has  been  sold  to  make  room  for  the  jute  working. 

Pacific  Jute  Company,  incorporated  August  16,  1873.  Capi- 
tal, $1,000,000.  This  company  has  been  incorporated  with  the 
view  of  ultimate  consolidation  with  the  California  Jute  Manu- 
facturing Company,  extensive  improvements  and  additions  to  the 
factory  at  East  Oakland  being  contemplated. 

Pacific  Cordage  Company. — The  works  of  this  company  are 
located  near  Fruit  Vale  R.  R.  Station,  Alameda  County.  The 
main  building  is  two  stories  in  height  and  one  hundred  and  ninety 
feet  wide  by  forty-five  feet  long.  The  rope-walk  -is  twenty-six 
feet  wide  by  eighteen  hundred  feet  long.  The  machinery  used 
is  of  the  most  improved  character,  with  a  capacity  of  ten  thou- 
sand pounds  per  day  of  ten  hours.  Constant  employment  is  af- 
forded to  nearly  one  hundred  persons.     The  raw  material  used

in  this  establishment  is  obtained  from  Manila  and  St.  Louis,  and 
is  know  as  the  Manila  and  Kentucky  hemp.  The  attention  of 
those  engaged  in  industrial  pursuits  is  invited  to  the  fact  that 
this  company  could  consume  annually  five  hundred  tons  of  the 
Kentucky  hemp,  if  parties  would  cultivate  it  on  this  coast  and 
furnish  it  even  at  an  advance  on  Eastern  prices. 

In  this  connection,  and  with  the  view  of  employing  white  labor 
to  as  great  an  extent  as  possible,  and  to  encourage  the  growth 
of  the  different  fibres  which  enter  into  the  manufacture  in  which 
they  are  engaged,  the  Company  will  pay  a  handsome  premium 
for  the  first  ten  tons  of  hemp  grown  on  this  Coast,  and,  in  addi- 
tion, the  Company,  in  due  season,  will  furnish  the  seed  gratis  to 
any  parties  who  will  undertake  its  growth.  At  the  present  time 
the  factory  is  working  up  to  its  full  capacity,  which,  as  stated 
before,  is  ten  thousand  pounds  per  day.  The  Managing  Agent, 
Mr.  J.  D.  Farwell,  assures  the  public  that,  outside  of  pecuniary 
considerations,  he  and  the  gentlemen  with  whom  he  is  associated 
in  this  enterprise  are  determined  to  do  all  in  their  power  to  find 
permanent  employment  for  poor  white  people,  and  they  already 
contemplate  engaging  in  other  manufactures  that  will  afford  work 
to  women  and  children  in  large  numbers. 

The  Brooklyn  Tannery,  Crist  &  Rued,  proprietors,  located 
on  East  Twelfth  Street,  between  Twenty-first  and  Twenty-second 
avenues,  East  Oakland,  is  the  largest  in  Alameda  County.  Dur- 
ing the  present  year  three  buildings  have  been  erected  by  this 
Company,  which  cover  about  one  hundred  by  three  hundred  feet 
of  ground.  Operations  were  commenced  July,  1873.  The 
business  consists  in  the  manufacture  of  sole-leather,  also  harness 
and  skirting  leather.  At  present  eight  men  are  employed.  The 
quantity  of  leather  manufactured  is  about  two  thousand  sides  a 
month. 

The  Oak  Gro\'e  Tannery,  A.  C.  Nichols  and  John  S.  Derby, 
proprietors.  The  business  consists  in  the  manufacture  of  har- 
ness, skirting,  and  sole-leather,  the  principal  market  for  which  is 
San  Francisco.  Six  men  find  constant  employment.  The 
quantity  of  leather  manufactured  is  about  two  hundred  and  forty 
sides  a  week.  The  tannery  is  located  on  the  corner  of  East 
Twelfth  and  Eighteenth  streets. 

The  Oakla.nd  Tannery,  located  on  the  Bay  shore,  about  two 
miles  north  of  the  old  charter  line,  is  owned  by  Wm.  Watts. 
The  specialty  is  the  manufacture  of  the  finer  kinds  of  calf-skin, 
for  boots  and  shoes,  and  the  principal  market  for  which  is  in  San 
Francisco. 

Brooklyn  Metallurgical  Works. — An  establishment  under  this 
name  is  in  process  of  erection  at  East  Oakland,  near  the  Jute  Fac- 
tory, for  the  reduction  of  gold,  silver,  copper,  and  lead  ores, 
which  will  doubtless  be  extended  to  other  purposes  in  the  future. 
It  is  a  private  establishment,  under  the  charge  of  Henry  H.  Fames, 
a  practical  chemist,  and  Russell  D.  Walbridge.  These  works 
will  be  in  operation  in  a  few  weeks,  but  will  not  be  running  to 
their  full  capacity  until  some  time  during  the  year  1874.

Oakland  SnELTiNa  Am)  Eefining  Works. — Extensive  works 
for  the  reduction  of  ores  are  now  being  erected  at  Melrose,  a  sta- 
tion on  the  Central  Pacific  Railroad,  a  short  distance  from  San 
Leaudro,  which,  when  completed,  will  afford  increased  facilities 
for  those  engaged  in  the  development  of  this  important  branch 
of  our  resources. 

Lusk's  MANUFACTORy  OF  PRESERVED  Fruits. — These  works  are 
located  on  Evoy  Avenue,  between  San  Pablo  and  Telegraph 
avenues.  The  piincipal  building  is  one  hundred  and  eighty  feet 
in  length,  by  seventy  feet  in  width ;  and,  in  addition,  there  are 
several  small  structures  for  the  different  departments  of  the  en- 
tex'prise.  Seven  thousand  cans  of  preserved  assorted  fruits  are 
packed  daily,  and  over  one  hundred  and  fifty  persons  are  con- 
stantly employed.  Three  hundred  and  fifty  acres  of  land  are  in 
cultivation,  on  which  are  raised  nearly  all  the  vegetables  required 
in  this  establishment. 

Carriage  Manufactories. — There  are  several  establishments 
in  Oakland  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  carriages,  buggies, 
and  wagons,  and  a  variety  of  articles  connected  therewith,  the 
quality  of  which  will  favorably  compare  with  those  produced 
elsewhere.  One  of  the  most  extensive  is  the  Oakland  Carriage 
Factory,  M.  W.  Allen  proprietor,  located  on  the  corner  of  Tenth 
and  Franklin  Streets.  The  Pioneer  Factory  of  William  Sohst, 
corner  of  Franklin  and  Eighth  streets,  is  entensively  engaged  in 
the  same  line.  The  new  and  commodious  building  recently 
erected  by  this  gentleman  affords  ample  facilities  for  the  eco- 
nomical and  j)rompt  dispatch  of  the  various  departments  of  his 
business.  Northey  &  McGrath,  803  East  Twelfth  Street,  are 
also  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  carriages,  buggies,  wagons, 
and  all  kinds  of  agricultural  implements. 

In  this  connection  may  be  mentioned  the  establishments  of 
George  A.  King,  414  Eleventh  Street ;  Wagar  &  Weymouth,  365 
Eleventh  ;  Henry  Weeks,  314  East  Eleventh,  rear  of  Washing- 
ton Hall;  and  KcOrew  &  Hamilton,  1060  and  1064  Thirteenth 
Avenue,  where  carriage-making,  repairing,  and  general  black- 
smithing  is  done  in  workmanlike  manner. 

WiNDiMiLLS. — W.  J.  Tucker  &  Brother  have  recently  opened  an 
establishment  on  Second  Street,  near  Washington,  for  the  manu- 
facture of  Peck's  Patent  Windmill,  an  Eastern  invention.  The 
manufacturers  claim  that  this  is  the  only  self-regulating,  noise- 
less windmill  in  the  country,  and  that,  after  a  series  of  experi- 
ments, it  is  now  brought  to  perfection. 

The  Fruit  Vale  Quartz  Company,  whose  quarries  are  located 
at  Fruit  Vale,  are  engaged  in  the  business  of  laying  sidewalks, 
carriage-drives,  and  garden-paths  with  white  quartz.  The  com- 
pany have  an  office  at  No.  923  Broadway,  where  any  orders  left 
will  be  promptly  attended  to. 

The  Pioneer  Soda  Works,  James  I.  Bliven  &  Co.  proprietors, 
are  located  at  665  and  667  Broadway.  These  works  supply  Oak- 
land and  its  vicinity  with  an  excellent  article  of  soda,  the  demand 
for  which  is  constantly  increasing.

Population,   1870,  1872,   and  1873. 

The  Federal  Census  of  1870  placed  the  population  of  the  town- 
ship of  Oakland  at  11,104,  divided  as  follows  :  Native,  6,940; 
foreign,  4,164  ;  or  white,  10,142  ;  colored,  55;  Chinese,  906;  In- 
dian, 1.  Of  this  aggregate  10,500  are  declared  the  population 
of  the  city,  and  the  remainder,  600,  represent  the  townshij)  out- 
side the  Charter  Limits.  No  official  classification  of  the  sexes 
and  ages  has  been  as  yet  published,  and  it  is  therefore  impossible 
to  compare  the  above  figures  with  the  returns  of  the  school 
census  of  1871  and  1872  and  the  data  collected  during  the 
progress  of  the  canvass  for  the  present  volume.  In  1869,  the 
total  number  of  children  of  15  years  and  under,  according  to 
the  school  census,  was  2,144 ;  1870,  2,628  ;  1871,  2,952 ;  1872, 
3,761. 

The  increase  of  children  from  July,  1870,  to  July,  1872,  accord- 
ing to  these  returns,  is  1,133,  from  which  should  be  deducted 
300  (the  estimated  number  added  to  the  School  Census  from  a 
part  of  Temescal),  leaving  833,  or  thirty-two  per  cent.  This  rate 
must  not  be  taken  as  an  average  for  the  entire  population,  from 
the  fact  that  the  element  over  twenty  does  not  increase  in  the 
same  ratio  as  those  under  that  age. 

The  number  of  names  on  the  poll-list  for  the  present  year  is 
2,800.  The  number  of  votes  cast  at  the  election,  1871  was:  Oak- 
land, 1,260;  Point,  281  ;  part  of  Temescal  (recently  included 
within  the  city  limits),  165.     Total,  1,706. 

The  following  table  has  been  compiled  from  the  above  and 
other  reliable  data  collected  during  the  progress  of  the  canvass 
for  the  present  volume.  Attention  is  respectfully  directed  to  the 
figures  contained  therein,  and  the  aggregate  derived  therefrom; 

Males  over  21,  names  of  residents  in  the  present  volume .  3,350

This  aggregate,  after  deducting  therefrom  1,000  as  the  popu- 
lation of  a  part  of  Temescal  recently  added  to  the  limits  of  the 
city,  and  compared  with  the  returns  of  the  Federal  census  of 
1870  (10,500),  shows  a  gain  in  two  years  of  511,  or  less  than  five 
per  cent. ;  while  the  school  census,  which  includes  nearly  forty 
per  cent,  of  the  population,  shows  a  gain  of  833,  or  thirty-two 
per  cent.  This  discrepancy  can  be  accounted  for  only  upon  the 
theory  that  a  part  of  the  township  population  residing  outside

of  the  corporate  limits  was  included  in  the  returns  of  the  city,  or 
that  the  enumeration  was  absolutely  inaccurate.  This  must  be 
assumed,  because  the  school  census  shows  a  regular  and  propor- 
tionate increase.  It  is  taken  annually  by  some  competent  citizen 
of  Oakland,  and  as  the  amount  of  school  money  to  be  received 
from  the  State  and  County  depends  upon  the  number  of  children, 
there  is  the  strongest  motive  to  make  the  returns  as  large  as  the 
facts  warrant. 

In  support  of  the  assumption  that  residents  of  the  outside  dis- 
tricts were  included  in  the  returns  of  the  city  the  fact  is  referred 
to  that,  at  the  general  election  in  1871,  the  precinct  of  Temescal 
returned  329  votes,  which  properly  represent  a  population  of 
1974,  by  allowing  one  vote  to  each  six  of  population,  about  the 
proportion  of  Alameda  County,  and  the  usual  estimate  for  per- 
manently settled  agricultural  districts  ;  but  according  to  the 
returns  of  the  Federal  census,  the  population  was  only  604. 
That  over  one  half  of  the  population  were  voters  is  the  con- 
clusion to  be  drawn,  and  it  is  so  obviously  incorrect  as  to 
throw  discredit  upon  the  entire  returns.  If  these  deductions 
are  correct,  the  jDopulation  of  the  city  of  Oakland,  August, 
1870,  was  9,130  and  not  10,500,  as  reported  by  the  Federal 
census. 

By  the  authority  of  the  City  Council,  a  census  of  Oakland  was 
taken  in  June  of  the  present  year,  with  the  following  results  :

figures,  as  compared  with  the  returns  of  the  census  of  the  present 
year,  15,387,  are  626  less,  or  about  four  and  one  half  per  cent., 
a  reasonable  estimate  for  the  increase  during  the  twelve  months 
between  the  dates  of  the  respective  estimates. 

It  is  to  be  regretted  that  the  published  returns  of  the  census 
of  the  present  year  do  not  exhibit  a  classification  of  the  white

Oakland  City,  from  the  time  it  commenced  to  assume  import- 
ance and  attract  general  attention  throughout  the  State.  Dur- 
ing the  year  ending  November  1,  1868,  the  sales  amounted  to 
$29,83,719,  but,  with  the  exception  of  that  year,  the  report  for  the 
year  1872-3  is  the  best  on  record.  In  1868  the  greater  part  of 
the  real  estate  business  was  purely  speculative.  For  three  years 
there  has  been  but  very  little  speculation  in  city  propei'ty;  sales 
have  been  mainly  to  parties  intending  to  improve  and  occupy 
the  property.  Prices  are  not  greatly  in  excess  of  those  prevail- 
ing three  years  ago.  These  facts  indicate  that  the  business  has 
been  healthy  and  legitimate,  far  better  for  the  city  than  another 
season  of  speculation.  The  street  railroads  have  brought  into 
market  hundreds  of  acres  of  land,  and  rendered  it  valuable  for 
building  purj)oses.  The  improvements  outside  of  the  old  Enci- 
nal  line  have  been  extensive  and  valuable,  but  far  the  larger  num- 
ber of  dwelling-houses  have  been  erected  in  the  central  portion  of 
the  city,  within  a  few  moments'  walk  of  the  local  railroad.

The  niimber  of  births  recorded  for  the  year  is  153  males  ;  139 
females  ;  total  292,  showing  a  balance  of  80  births  over  the 
deaths. 

Estimating  the  popxilation,  December  31,  1870,  at  10,000  ; 
December  31, 1871,  at  11,000  ;  and  December  31, 1872  (including 
Brooklyn),  at  15,000,  give  a  mortality  of  1  to  every  82  of  the 
population  for  the  year  1870-71  ;  1  to  eveiy  102  for  1871-2  ;  and 
1  to  every  71  for  1872-73.  The  number  of  bu-ths  for  the  years 
1871-2  is  179  ;  and  for  1872-3  is  292.  The  returns  of  1871-2 
show  that  deducting  the  number  of  deaths  by  accident,  tubercu- 
lar diseases,  and  those  of  children  under  five  years  (a  large  pro- 
portion of  which  generally  result  from  negligence  or  ignorance), 
would  give  a  yearly  mortality  of  1  in  216  for  1871-72. 

Epidemic  and  endemic  diseases  are  of  rare  occurrence ;  in- 
flammatory diseases  are  of  a  mild  character. 

Public  Libraries. 

In  addition  to  the  libraiy  connected  with  the  University  of 
California,  which  comprises  10,000  volumes,  and  several  smaller 
collections  belonging  to  educational  institutions,  there  are  in  the 
city  the  Oakland  and  Odd  Fellows'  Libraries,  each  of  which 
contains  a  valuable  selection  of  works  in  the  different  depart- 
ments of  modern  literature,  to  which  additions  of  the  new  and 
standard  publications  of  the  day  are  made  as  rajoidly  as  cir- 
cumstances will  permit.  Aii-angements  are  in  progi-ess  to  secure 
the  organization  of  another  libraiy,  under  the  auspices  of  the 
Masonic  Fraternity,  and  from  the  character  of  those  engaged  in 
the  movement  there  is  but  little  doubt  of  its  final  success.

Twelfth  streets,  upon  which  has  been  recently  erected  a  com-

The  Newspaper  and  Periodical  Press  of  Oakland. 

There  are  three  daily  and  two  weekly  newspapers  published  in 
Oakland.  The  News,  daily,  now  owned  by  Gagan  &  Fairchild, 
was  started  in  November,  1863,  and  for  five  years  was  the  only 
paper  published  in  the  city.  It  is  prosperous  and  growing;  Ke- 
publican  in  politics,  and  has  kept  pace  with  the  growth  and 
improvement  of  Oakland.  The  Transcrij)t,  daily,  was  started 
April,  1868,  and  has  changed  ownership  several  times,  the  pres- 
ent iDrojjrietor  being  A.  W.  Bishop,  who  has  succeeded  John 
Scott,  under  whose  management  it  has  been  conducted  for  sev- 
eral years.  It  is  Eepublican  in  politics.  The  Alameda  County 
Gazette,  weekly,  is  also  published  by  A.  W.  Bishop.  The  Eoe- 
ning  Torchlight,  ■pnhlish.ed  by  Louis  Dunand  &  Co.,  was  com- 
menced in  November,  1872.  It  is  Independent  in  politics.  The 
Oakland  Home  Journal,  weekly,  was  established  by  its  present 
proprietor,  William  Halley,  on  the  9th  of  July,  1871,  as  the 
Brooklyn  Home  Journal.  It  has  been  since  twice  enlarged,  and 
has  a  constantly  increasing  circulation.  The  University  Echo 
is  a  monthly  paper  published  under  the  auspices  of  the  Durant 
Khetorical  Society,  an  organization  composed  of  students  of  the 
State  University.  The  Oakland  Monthly  Review  is  issued  by  John 
W.  Boss  &  Co.  The  first  number  appeared  in  December,  1873 . 
During  the  history  of  the  city  very  many  unsuccessful  attempts 
have  been  made  to  found  other  periodicals,  entailing  the  loss  of 
a  large  amount  of  capital.

COUNTY  INFIRMARY. 

The  County  Infirmary  is  located  on  a  tract  of  127  acres  of 
land  near  the  San  Lorenzo  Creek,  about  five  miles  from  the 
town  of  San  Leandro. 

The  Infirmary  is  intended  to  answer  the  double  purpose  of  a 
hospital  and  an  almshouse,  and  suitable  steps  have  been  taken 
to  secure  the  comfort  of  the  patients.  The  County  Board  of 
Supei-visors  are  ex-officio  directors  of  the  Infirmary.  The  build- 
ings are  inexpensive;  the  original  cost  of  the  main  edifice — which 
is  of  wood — ha\-ing  been  $5,000.  Numerous  finiit  trees  have 
been  planted,  and  the  extensive  grounds  are  cultivated  by  the 
convalescent  patients  and  other  inmates  of  the  institution. 


PUBLIC  SCHOOI.S.* 

The  past  histoiy  and  present  condition  of  the  public  schools 
in  the  city  of  Oakland  are  detailed  at  considerable  length  in  the 
carefully  prepared  report  of  the  City  Superintendent,  Frederick 
M.  Campbell,  Esq.,  to  the  Board  of  Education,  for  the  year  end- 
ing June  30th,  1873.  From  this  document  we  compile  the  fol- 
lowing information  concerning  the  public  schools. 

The  first  public  school  in  the  city  was  organized  in  July,  1853, 
with  sixteen  puiDils.  The  teacher  was  Miss  H.  J.  Jayne,  sister  of 
the  present  Police  Judge,  and  now  Mrs.  Edson  Adams.  The 
building  used  was  erected  at  a  cost  of  one  thousand  dollars,  and 
it  is  now  occupied  as  an  African  Church,  having  been  removed 
from  its  original  location,  at  the  corner  of  Clay  and  Fifth  streets, 
to  the  corner  of  Market  and  Seventh  streets.  This  building  af- 
forded all  the  public  school  accommodation  of  Oakland  until 
the  year  1862.  In  May,  of  that  year,  the  block  of  land  bounded 
by  Twelfth,  Eleventh,  Jefi'erson,  and  Grove  streets  was  pur- 
chased for  nine  hundred  dollars :  now  worth,  at  least,  forty  thou- 
sand dollars.  A  small  building  was  erected  thereon,  and  school 
was  opened  in  November  of  the  same  year.  In  August,  1865, 
the  lot,  100  by  125,  on  the  corner  of  Alice  and  Fifth  streets,  was 
purchased.  The  first  grammar  school  was  commenced  in  what 
is  now  the  Lafayette  Primary,  in  November,  1867.     The  Pres-

cott  School-house,  at  Oakland  Point,  was  the  next  building

1869.  In  August  of  the  same  year,  the  primary  school  building, 
corner  of  Grrove  and  Fifth  streets,  was  formally  occupied.  The 
High  School  building,  on  the  corner  of  Market  and  Twelfth 
streets,  was  dedicated  September  17th,  1871.  In  twenty  years 
the  department  has  increased  from  one  building,  with  sixteen 
2Dupils,  to  buildings  containing  near  fifty  rooms  and  over  twenty- 
one  hundred. pupils.

UNIVERSITY  OF  CALIFORNIA.        43 

"  Our  department  has  grown  very  rapidly  within  the  last  year; 
families  moving  into  our  city  from  various  portions  of  the  State 
where  the  children  have  been  necessarily  deprived  of  the  thor- 
ough drill  in  the  lower  grades,  which  the  children  living  in 
cities,  where  there  are  graded  schools,  as  in  our  own  city,  have. 
These  pupils  are  almost  invariably  found  to  be  unequal  in  their 
attainments— well  advanced  in  some  branches,  and  very  deficient 
in  others;  so  that  while  grading  them  correctly  for  some  studies, 
it  is  often  found  to  be  too  high  for  others.  The  examinations 
this  year  have  also  been  more  rigid  than  heretofore.  Yet,  while 
they  were  difficult,  they  were  not  unjust.  The  Superintendent 
is  confident  the  results  will  be  fully  up  to  those  attained  in  the 
San  Francisco  schools." 

Vocal  music  is  taught  in  all  of  the  classes  by  their  respective 
teachers. 

Under  the  instructions  of  Mrs.  A.  W.  Brodt,  the  classes  have 
made  good  progress  in  the  study  of  drawing. 

The  Cosmopolitan  School  was  started  in  1870  as  an  experi- 
ment, with  twenty  j)upils,  and  the  services  of  Professor  A.  D. 
A.  Champion  were  secured  as  teacher.  The  exercises  are  con- 
ducted in  the  French  language,  and  the  pupils  show  remarkable 
proficiency  in  their  studies. 


UNIVERSITY  or  CALIFORNIA. 

The  State  Constitution  requires  that  the  Legislature  shall 
maintain  a  university,  but  only  a  technical  obedience  was  given 
to  this  section  of  the  fundamental  law  of  the  State  until  the  year 
1863,  when  the  Legislature  passed  a  concurrent  resolution  ac- 
cepting the  donation  of  lands  tendered  to  the  State  by  Congress, 
for  the  endowment  of  a  College  of  Agriculture  and  Mechanic 
Arts.  In  March,  1866,  the  Legislature  passed  an  Act  to  estab- 
lish an  "  Agricultural,  Mining  and  Mechanical  Arts  College." 
The  directors  sj)ecified  in  that  Act,  decided  that  the  proposed' 
college  should  be  located  in  Alameda  County,  but  did  not  desig- 
nate the  part  in  which  it  should  be  located.  The  College  of 
California  owned  a  tract  of  one  hundred  and  sixty  acres  of  land 
at  Berkely,  five  miles  from  Oakland,  and  in  August,  1867^  the 
Trustees  passed  a  series  of  resolutions,  proposing  to  donate  this 
property  to  the  University,  and  offering  to  give  its  entire  assets 
to  the  State  institution,  provided  the  State  should  forthwith 
occupy  the  property,  and  organize  and  put  into  operation  a  Uni- 
versity of  California,  which  should  include  a  college  of  Mines, 
of  Agriculture,  and  an  Academical  College — ^all  of  the  same 
grade,  and  with  courses  of  instruction  equal  to  those  of  Eastern 
colleges.  The  Directors  of  the  Agricultural  College  accepted  the 
offer,  and  received  a  conveyance  of  the  property  at  Berkeley.  In 
March,  1868,  the  Legislature  passed  the  Act  incorporating  the 
State  Universitj^  under  which  its   affairs  have  ever  since  been

The  University  consists  of  five  distinct  and  independent  col- 
leges, viz.:  Four  colleges  of  Arts,  and  one  college  of  Letters, 
as  follows: 

1.  A  State  College  of  Agriculture.  1

4.  A  State  College  of  Civil  Engineering.  J 

5.  A  State  College  of  Letters. 

The  full  course  of  Instruction  in  each  college  embraces  all  ap- 
propriate studies,  and  continues  for  at  least  four  years. 

The  University  possesses  apparatus  jDrocured  from  Europe, 
valued  at  $30,000,  for  the  use  of  the  chemical  and  other  scientific 
experiments.  The  student  are  organized  into  four  military 
companies,  under  the  State  law,  and  are  drilled  twice  each  week. 
Professor  Welcker  and  Professor  Soule,  graduates  from  West 
Point,  have  charge  of  the  military  instruction  of  the  pujDils. 
The  exercises  are  conducted  in  the  elegant  and  spacious  new 
buildings  erected  by  the  State  at  Berkeley.  The  State  owns  the 
four  blocks  of  land  between  Twelfth,  Fourteenth,  Franklin,  and 
Harrison  streets,  in  Oakland.  Provision  is  made  by  law  for  five 
scholarships,  of  $300  per  annum  each,  to  be  given  to  members 
entering  the  fourth  class,  after  a  competitive  examination. 

The  Legislature,  at  the  session  of  1871-2,  jjassed  Acts  ap- 
propriating $6,000  per  month  for  the  pay  of  professors  and  tutors, 
and  $300,000  for  the  building  fund.  The  original  endowments 
of  the  University  were  valued  at  $420,000 — without  including 
150,000  acres  of  laud,  but  a  small  part  of  which  has  been  located. 
An  abundant  supply  of  water  has  been  introduced  throughout 
the  buildings  and  grounds  of  the  University.  When  all  the  im- 
provements projected  are  completed,  the  University  site  will  be- 
come one  of  the  most  attractive  spots  in  the  State.

INSTITUTION  FOR  THE  DEAF  AND  DUMB  AND  THE  BLIND. 

This  institution,  situated  at  the  base  of  the  foot-hills,  foui'  and 
a  half  miles  north  of  Oakland,  and  in  immediate  proximity  to  the 
State  University,  was  originally  located  in  San  Francisco.  It  was 
started — and  for  some  time  sustained — through  the  exertions  of 
the  benevolent  women  of  that  city.  The  school  was  opened 
April  30,  1860,  with  three  jDupils.  As  the  institution  grew  in 
numbers,  State  aid  was  obtained,  and  1865,  it  had  increased  to 
such  a  degree  as  to  justify  its  entire  organization  under  State 
auspices. 

A  law  was  passed  March  3,  186G,  "  pi'oviding  for  a  removal 
of  the  school  from  the  limited  and  inconvenient  quarters  in  San 
Francisco  " — for  enlarging  the  scope  of  its  beneficence — for  vest- 
ing in  the  State  the  title  to  all  property  held  by  the  institution, 
and  providing  for  a  Board  of  Directors,  under  the  Code  ap- 
pointed by  the  Governor.  Suitable  appropriations  were  made 
to  carry  out  the  purjoose  of  the  Act. 

After  long  and  patient  examinations,  the  Commissioners  de- 
cided upon  the  present  location.  Plans — drawn  by  Messrs. 
Wright  &  Sanders,  of  San  Francisco — were  adopted,  and  the 
buildings  now  occupied  were  erected. 

The  ground  was  broken  June  29,  1867,  and  the  corner-stone 
was  laid  September  26,  of  the  same  year,  and  the  new  building 
was  occuj^ied  for  school  purposes  October  20,  1869. 

The  institution  is  built  of  stone— is  three  stories  in  height — 
having  a  total  frontage  of  26-4  feet,  a  depth  of  140  feet,  and  the 
height  to  the  top  of  the  spii-e  is  160  feet.  It  is  admirably  planned 
for  the  purpose  of  such  an  establishment. 

The  whole  cost  of  building,  grounds,  shops,  heating  apparatus, 
laundry,  and  the  furniture,  has  been  about  §180,000.  The  in- 
stitution has  a  present  capacity  for  about  150.  During  the  year 
1872-3,  112  persons  received  instruction. 

The  benefits  of  the  institution  are  free  to  all  resident  deaf  and 
dumb,  or  blind,  persons,  between  the  ages  of  six  and  twenty-five, 
who  are  of  sound  mind,  free  fi'om  contagious  or  oflfensive  dis- 
eases, and  of  correct  moral  habits. 

It  is  not  an  asylum,  in  any  sense  of  the  term,  as  its  inmates 
are  received  only  for  purposes  of  education. 

The  names  of  the  Board  of  Directors  are : 

J.  Mora  Moss,  President.  John  C.  Hats,  Vice-President.

PRIVATE  EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS. 


CALIFORNIA  MILITARY  ACADEMY. 

This  military  institution,  opened  January  9,  1865,  is  the  first 
of  the  kind  that  has  been  established  on  this  coast.  Rev.  D. 
McClure  is  the  proprietor  and  principal.  The  academic  staff  is 
composed  of  nine  experienced  teachers. 

In  the  academic  department,  well-defined  and  extensive 
courses  of  study  are  pm'sued  in  the  English  branches,  ancient 
and  modern  languages,  natural  science,  mathematics,  and  com- 
mercial knowledge — such  as  will  jDrepare  students  for  college  or 
business.  The  institution  is  also  organized  as  a  military  post, 
and  it  is  obligatoi-y  upon  every  student  to  attend  the  daily  mili- 
tary drill,  and  perform  the  duties  of  a  cadet — which  do  not  in- 
terfere with  the  hours  of  study.  There  were  176  students  in  at- 
tendance dui'ing  the  last  year. 

Location. — The  location,  on  Telegraph  Avenue,  near  Pros- 
pect Avenue,  is  one  that  affords  the  cadets  a  scene  of  rare  beauty. 
From  the  rise  of  the  ground  upon  which  the  buildings  are  situ- 
ated, an  extensive  view  is  had  of  Oakland  and  the  surrounding 
valleys,  of  the  Bay  and  City  of  San  Francisco,  and  of  the  Ocean 
through  the  Golden  Gate.  The  Academy  may  be  reached  by  the 
Telegraph  Avenue  cars. 

Buildings. — In  location,  style,  and  general  adaptation  to  the 
purposes  of  education,  they  are  unsurpassed  by  any  similar  in- 
stitution in  the  State.  Every  care  has  been  taken  to  secure  the 
best  arrangements  for  the  comfort,  health,  and  refinement  of 
the  cadets.  Two  large  three-story  buildings,  and  three  small  ones, 
have  been  erected  in  the  j)lace  of  those  destroyed  by  fire  on  the 
evening  of  September  20, 1873,  at  a  cost  of  822,000,  which  aflbrd 
ample  room  for  school  purposes,  and  for  in-door  recreation  and 
drill  during  stormy  weather. 

Design  of  the  Institution. — It  is  the  fixed  purpose  of  the 
principal,  and  those  associated  with  him,  to  render,  the  institution 
an  efficient  instrument  for  the  symmetrical  development  and  dis-

cipline  of  the  mind,  and  the  formation  of  a  good  iDhysical  con- 
stitution. Ease  and  grace  of  manners,  kindness  and  courtesy  in 
social  intercourse,  are  matters  of  constant  oversight.  That  edu- 
cation is  more  anxiously  sought  for  the  pupils,  which  has  sj)ecial 
reference  to  the  best  practical  jDreparations  for  the  duties  of  this 
life,  and  also  to  that  moral  and  religious  culture  which  will  fit 
them  for  the  life  to  come. 

MiuTAEY. — The  military  system  of  drilling  and  discipline  has 
been  adaj)ted  to  secure  physical  culture,  promptness,  decision  of 
movement,  erect  carriage,  submission  to  constituted  authority, 
jDresence  of  mind,  ability  to  govern,  and  the  repression  of  the 
tendency  to  mdeness,  natural  to  an  assembly  of  boys.  This  de- 
partment is  thoroughly  organized,  affording  an  opportunity  for 
obtaining  a  complete  knowledge  of  the  duties  of  the  soldier  and 
the  officer.  The  full  routine  of  a  Military  Post  is  constantly  ob- 
served, with  its  Headquarters,  Quartermaster,  Commissaiy,  and 
the  other  Departments.  It  is  obligatory  upon  eveiy  cadet  to  at- 
tend the  daily  militaiy  exercises  as  a  regular  part  of  the  Academic 
Coui'se.  Physical  deformity  and  sickness  are  the  only  grounds 
of  excuse. 

The  Academy  is  furnished  with  muskets  and  equipments  suit- 
able for  the  use  of  cadets,  and  a  large  armor}'  for  in-door  and 
bayonet  exercises. 

The  Company,  Battalion,  and  Skirmish  Drills  are  conducted 
according  to  Upton's  Tactics. 

The  real  object  of  militaiy  discipline  is  not  to  make  soldiers 
only  of  the  students,  but  to  give  them  strength  of  body,  vigor  of 
constitution,  and  manliness  of  bearing;  to  fit  them  not  merely 
for  the  field  of  battle,  but  for  all  employments  and  departments 
of  life  which  demand  vigor,  energy,  and  endiu-ance.  The  efi'ects 
of  the  regular,  daily,  systematic  drill  under  competent  officers, 
in  restoring  to  health  and  strength  delicate,  dyspeptic,  and  debil- 
itated youths  would  be  alone  sufficient  to  assure  us  of  its  high 
utility.  The  j)romptness,  accuracy,  and  general  habits  of  order 
and  precision  to  which  cadets  are  trained,  together  with  the 
steady  cultivation  of  fidelity,  honesty,  and  courtesy,  as  essential 
to  military'  excellence,  have  also  been  found  of  incalculable  value 
in  fitting  them  for  all  professional  and  business  i:)ursuits. 

The  militaiy  drill  does  not  encroach  upon  study  hours,  but  occu- 
pies time  usually  given  to  recreation,  which  is  often  worse  than 
wasted  by  students. 

The  Legislatare  of  the  State  of  California  passed  an  Act,  Feb- 
raary  20,  1872,  in  which  provision  is  made: 

1.  To  commission  the  Commandant  of  this  Academy  as  Major 
in  the  National  Guard  of  Cahfornia,  and — 

2.  To  furnish  the  cadets  with  arms  and  accouterments. 

Unifoem. — The  "fatigue"  coat  is  a  close-fitting  gray  cloth 
jacket,  with  black  trimmings.  The  "  dress  "  suit  is  a  gray  cloth 
frock  coat,  with  black  cloth  cufis,  collar,  and  shoulder-piece  ex- 
tending from  the  seam  of  the  collar  to  the  end  of  the  shoulder.

Cadets  are  required  to  wear  the  uniform  during  the  term  time, 
except  when  visiting  their  homes — then  it  is  optional. 

Passes. — No  cadet  is  permitted  to  leave  the  Academy  grounds 
unaccompanied  by  one  of  the  Academic  Staff,  unless  he  has  ob- 
tained a  pass,  stating  the  place  to  which  he  is  going,  the  hour  of 
departure,  and  the  time  he  is  required  to  return.  A  violation  of 
this  pass,  in  any  respect,  is  considered  a  breach  of  confidence, 
and  deprives  the  cadet  of  a  pass  for  a  length  of  time  depending 
ujion  the  circumstances  of  the  case. 

Cadet  Officers. — The  appointment  of  every  cadet  officer  of 
the  corps  is  made  by  the  Superintendent,  and  is  based  upon  his 
qualifications  as  a  student  and  a  soldier.  He  must  have  a  high 
standing  in  the  following  particulars : 

1.  Deportment  and  Academic  scholarship. 

2.  Theoretical  and  practical  military  knowledge. 

3.  Natural  ability  to  command. 

This  basis  of  appointment  has  been  in  operation  during  the 
present  year.  Previous  appointments  were  made  more  with  ref- 
erence to  military  knowledge  than  deportment,  and  did  not, 
therefore,  represent  the  most  distinguished  scholars  and  soldiers, 
as  is  the  case  with  the  present  apjoointments. 

In  the  choice  of  officers,  preference  is  given  to  members  of  the 
first  and  second  classes  in  the  Academic  Department. 

Graduation. — Cadets  who  have  honorably  completed  the  Aca- 
demic Course  of  Study  will  receive  a  certificate  of  graduation  at 
the  close  of  the  academic  year. 


MILLS'     SEMINARY. 

The  Young  Ladies'  Seminary  of  Benicia  was  founded  in  1857, 
and  after  various  vicissitudes  of  fortune,  became  the  private 
property  of  Kev.  C.  T.  Mills,  in  1865.  Under  his  control,  the 
school  became  exceedingly  prosjDerous,  and  the  old  and  inferior 
buildings  were  no  longer  serviceable.  It  was  decided  to  remove 
the  seminary  to  a  tract  of  land  near  Fmit  Vale,  in  Brooklyn 
Township,  and  in  June,  1870,  work  was  commenced  upon  the 
new  building.  On  April  8,  1871,  the  structure  was  completed, 
and  accepted  from  the  contractor.  From  one  of  the  circulars 
issued,  we  copy  the  following  description : 

"  The  building  is  an  imposing  structure,  presenting  a  front  of 
two  hundred  and  eighteen  feet,  with  a  wing  of  one  hundred  and 
thirty  feet,  and  is  two  stories  in  height,  surmounted  by  a  Man- 
sard roof.  The  outline  is  well  broken ;  the  center  and  end  wings 
project  well  forward;  the  main  building,  somewhat  higher  than 
the  wings,  is  sm-mounted  by  a  cupola,  from  which  there  is  a 
splendid  view  of  the  surrounding  country.  The  great  size  of  the 
structure,  its  fine  proportions  and  details,  give  it  an  air  of  solid- 
ity, as  well  as  an  inviting  and  home-like  look.

50  OAKLAND     DIRECTORY. 

"  The  seminary  is  intended  to  accommodate  about  one  hun- 
dred and  ninety-five  pupils.  On  the  main  floor  are  parlors, 
reading-room,  libraiT,  and  recitation-rooms.  In  the  east  wing 
are  two  veiy  large  school  rooms,  besides  a  parlor,  several  rooms 
for  recitations,  music,  and  the  various  purposes  of  the  seminary. 
In  the  west  wing  are  the  apartments  of  the  principals;  adjoining 
them  is  a  suite  of  rooms  intended  for  use  in  case  of  sickness. 
The  upper  stories  are  devoted  to  sleeping  apartments.  Each 
room— an-anged  for  two  pupils — has  a  toilet  apartment  off  from 
it,  with  stationary  wash-bowl,  and  each  room  is  lighted  with  gas. 
The  bath-rooms,  etc.,  are  ample  and  complete.  Every  room 
is  frescoed  neatly  and  handsomely;  those  of  the  first  story,  the 
parlors,  reception,  and  school-rooms,  dining-hall,  and  music- 
rooms  being  very  elaborately  decorated,  making  them  remark- 
ably attractive  and  cheerful.  The  dining-hall,  a  fine  room  thirty- 
six  by  seventy  feet,  and  the  kitchen,  are  connected  with  the  main 
building  by  a  conidor,  and  the  laundiy,  sei-vants'  room,  etc.,  are 
apart  from  the  main  building.  The  halls  are  very  spacious,  and 
stairways  numerous  and  ample,  special  pains  to  secure  safety  in 
that  particular,  in  case  of  fire,  having  been  taken.  Fire-extin- 
guishers of  the  most  approved  kind  have  been  procured,  and 
placed  in  proper  jDOsition  in  the  building.  Under  the  building 
is  a  fine,  large  cellar.  Every  effort  has  been  made  to  secvire 
light,  proper  ventilation,  and  sunshine.  The  entire  building  is 
warmed  by  steam  and  lighted  with  gas  made  on  the  premises. 
Inside  blinds  have  been  provided  for  the  windows." 

An  Art-room  has  been  recently  added  to  the  building.  Eev. 
C.  T.  Mills  is  Principal,  and  Mrs.  S.  L.  Mills,  Associate  Princi- 
pal.    They  are  aided  by  a  coi-ps  of  twenty-three  teachers. 

The  attendance  for  the  year  ending  May,  1873,  in  the  several 
departments,  was  as  follows: 

Senior  class 19 

Senior  middle  class 20 

Junior  middle  class 35 

Junior 63 

Preparatory  131 

"Whole  number  of  students 268 

In  the  annual  catalogue  for  1873,  the  proprietor  says: 
"  Though  the  INIills'  Seminary,  for  the  present,  is  private  prop- 
erty, the  hope  and  purpose  is  to  make  it  a  permanent  institution. 
It  is  the  desire  of  the  proprietor,  as  well  as  those  who  have  so 
generously  aided  him  in  the  work,  that  it  shall  be  so  arranged — 
and  eventually  so  endowed — that,  like  Mt.  Holyoke,  or  Yassar, 
it  shall  be  self-perpetuating.  The  hope  is,  that,  adding  to  its 
resources  and  appliances  until  it  shall  become,  in  every  resjoect, 
all  that  can  be  desired,  and  depending  upon  no  individual  life, 
it  shall  continue  to  be  a  fountain  of  knowledge  and  a  blessed  in- 
fluence long  after  those  who  have  aided  in  the  enterprise  have 
finished  their  work  on  earth." 

The  next  term  of  the  seminary  will  commence  January  7, 1874.

^PACIFIC  THEOLOGICAL  SEMINARY. 

The  Pacific  Theological  Seminary  was  founded  in  1869,  in  San 
Francisco.  The  buildings  erected  by  the  Female  College  of  the 
Pacific,  on  Academy  Hill,  were  purchased  by  the  Seminary,  and 
possession  taken  in  June,  1871,  at  which  time  the  regular  exer- 
cises of  this  seminary  were  commenced.  The  value  of  the  prop- 
erty is  $70,000.  Last  year  there  were  seven  students  in  the  reg- 
ular classes.     Three  young  men  graduated  in  May,  1872. 

The  Trustees  of  the  seminary  are  as  follows: 

Kev.  A.  L.  Stone,  D.D.  Dea.  L.  B.  Benchley. 

Kev.  I.  E.  Dwinell,  D.D.  Dea.  T.  B.  Bigelow. 

Kev.  J.  A.  Benton,  D.D.  Dea.  E.  P.  Flint. 

Eev.  J.  K.  McLean.  .     S.  S.  Smith,  M.D. 

Rev.  W.  C.  Pond.  J,  M.  Haven,  Esq. 

Eev.  C.  H.  Pope.  AV.  N.  Hawley,  Esq. 

Rev.  A.  L.  Stone,  D.D President  of  the  Board. 

Rev.  J.  K.  McLean Secretary  of  the  Board. 

Dea.  L.  B.  Benchley Treasurer  of  the  Board. 

There  is  a  visiting  committee,  composed  of  the  following  per- 
sons: 

Rev.  EH  Corwin.  Rev.  T.  H.  Rouse. 

S.  S.  Smith.  ,      Wm.  K.  Rowell. 

The  regular  course  of  study  extends  over  three  years,  but  there 
are  courses  adapted  to  two  yeai's,  or  to  one  year.  The  seminary 
is  under  the  ausjjices  of  the  Congregational  Church,  but  the 
course  of  study  is  not  biased  in  favor  of  that  denomination,  some 
of  the  students  belonging  to  other  churches.  Rev.  J.  A.  Benton, 
D.D.,  is  Professor  of  Sacred  Literature,  and  Rev.  George  Mooar, 
D.D.,  is  Professor  of  Theology. 

The  year  consists  of  but  one  term.  It  begins  with  the  third 
Thursday  in  August,  and  ends  with  the  fourth  Thursday  in  May. 
There  will  be  a  recess  from  the  20th  of  December  to  the  3d  of 
January. 

Credible  evidence  of  piety,  membership  in  some  Evangelical 
Christain  Church,  a  collegiate  education,  or  such  other  literary  and 
scientific  attainments  as  promise  a  fair  degree  of  usefulness,  will 
entitle  all  young  men  to  the  advantages  of  this  seminary. 

Relative  to  exjDenses,  the  Trustees  have  the  following  in  their 
circular : 

"  There  will  be  no  charge  for  tuition,  rent  of  rooms,  or  use  of 
furniture.  The  Trustees  will,  so  far  as  practicable,  furnish  text- 
books and  reference  books  free  to  those  who  are  in  need;  them- 
selves being  the  judges  of  the  necessity.  Those  who  are  so  dis- 
posed can  live  very  economically  in  Oakland  or  San  Francisco. 
It  is  thought  that  one  dollar  a  day  will  meet  all  the  absolutely  nec- 
essary expenses  of    an  economical  person;    fifty  per  cent,  more

could  be  used  to  advantage;  a  hundred  per  cent,  more  would 
not  be  deemed  very  extravagant. 

"  The  American  Education  Society  will  render  aid  to  the  pu- 
pils of  this  seminary  who  are  esjDecially  needy,  and  who  take  the 
full  course  of  three  years.  The  amount  bestowed  will  be  $80  or 
$100  a  year  (in  currency)  to  each  beneficiary." 


GOLDEN  GATE  ACADEMY. 

This  academy  is  a  school  for  boys,  and  is  located  at  the  Pacific 
Theological  Seminary.  G.  J.  Gam  well  is  Principal.  Number 
of  pupils,  64.  All  pupils  must  board  at  the  school,  and  the 
circular  announces  that: 

"It  is  the  aim  of  the  Faculty  to  furnish,  as  near  as  may  be, 
an  equivalent  for  the  well-regulated  Christian  fireside.  In  this 
endeavor,  they  receive  most  valued  aid  from  Professor  Mooar 
and  family,  who  live  in  the  building." 


CONVENT  OP  OUR  LADY  OP  THE  SACRED  HEART. 

This  institution  is  for  the  education  of  girls,  and  is  located  on 
"Webster  Street  near  the  head  of  Lake  Merritt.  It  was  dedicated 
in  1868.  The  teachers  are  "  Sisters  of  the  Holy  Name  of  Jesus 
and  Mary,"  who  came  from  Canada  for  the  purpose  of  acting  as 
instructors  in  this  school.  The  funds  for  purchasing  the  grounds 
and  erecting  the  buildings  were  raised  through  the  jDcrsonal  ex- 
ertions of  Rev.  Father  King,  of  the  Church  of  the  Immaculate 
Conception  (formerly  St.  Mary's  Catholic  Church).  The  curricu- 
lum of  studies  resembles  that  of  other  schools  for  the  education 
of  young  ladies.  The  new  building  recently  erected  will  afford 
all  the  accommodations  necessary  to  meet  the  growing  wants  of 
this  flourishing  institution.

retired,  the  grounds  are  spacious  and  pleasantly  sliaded,  thus 
securing  every  opportunity  for  healthful  exercises  as  well  as  the 
quiet  and  seclusion  so  necessary  for  the  successful  prosecution 
of  study.  The  number  of  pupils  is  limited,  and  the  arrange- 
ments of  the  household  are  such  that  every  pupil  is  under  the 
direct  control  and  influence  of  the  Princij)al.  They  form  no  ac-

the  modern  languages,  are  taught  by  a  corps  of  competent 
teachers. 

There  are  several  other  seminaries  and  smaller  schools  taught 
in  parlors,  located  in  various  i^arts  of  the  city,  which  are  worthy 
of  special  mention,  did  space  permit.

FIRE     DEPARTMENT.  57 


FIRE     DEPARTMENT. 

The  first  attempt  to  establish  a  Fire  Department  in  the  City  of 
Oa-klaud  was  made  in  the  early  part  of  1853,  which  resulted  in 
the  organization  of  two  engine  comiDanies,  the  Empire  and  Wash- 
ington and  the  Oakland  Hook  and  Ladder  Company,  and  the 
election  of  John  Scott  as  Chief  Engineer.  Three  large  cisterns, 
which  still  remain  in  use,  were  soon  after  constructed  on  Broad- 
way, between  First  and  Fourth  streets,  to  sujjply  the  engines 
with  water,  and  the  necessary  aj)i)aratus  was  obtained  to  give 
efficiency  to  the  operations  of  the  Department.  The  apparatus 
then  used  by  the  Empire  Company,  a  small  New  York  side-stroke 
engine,  purchased  originally  at  a  cost  of  $2,000,  is  now  in  the 
Santa  Clara  Fire  Department,  in  good  condition.  This  organi- 
zation had  but  a  short-lived  existence.  It  was  within  a  year 
disbanded,  the  property  delivered  over  to  the  Council,  and  up  to 
1869,  Oakland  had  little  or  no  means  of  resisting  the  fieiy  element. 

The  present  Dej)artment  was  organized  March  13, 1869,  under 
the  provisions  of  an  ordinance  apjDroved  February  4,  1869,  by 
the  election  of  John  C.  Halley  as  Chief  Engineer,  and  Thomas 
McGuii-e  and  George  Taylor,  Assistants,  who  succeeded  John 
Scott,  Chief,  and  John  C.  Halley  and  W.  "W.  Moore,  Assistants, 
acting  under  authority  of  a  previous  organization.  The  apparatus 
of  the  Department  comprised  a  third-class  Amoskeag  fire  engine, 
purchased  by  the  city,  and  a  hose  carriage  procured  by  funds 
temporarily  advanced  by  Col.  John  Scott.  The  succeeding  offi- 
cers elected  in  1870,  were:  Miles  Doody,  Chief  Engineer;  George 
Taylor  and  G.  W.  Scribner,  Assistants;  who  continued  in  office 
until  January  16,  1872,  when  George  Taylor  was  elected  Chief 
Engineer,  and  R.  E.  Harmon  and  George  Farwell,  Assistants, 
who  in  turn  were  succeeded  by  the  present  officers. 

The  organization  of  the  Department  is  at  present  composed  of 
a  Board  of  eight  Fire  Commissioners,  a  Chief  Engineer,  and 
two  Assistants.  The  aj^paratus  consists  of  two  steam  engines, 
two  hand  engines,  and  two  hook  and  ladder  trucks;  each  engine 
has  a  hose  carriage .  The  steamers  and  two  of  the  hose  carriages 
are  drawn  by  horses. 

"Water  for  the  use  of  the  Department  is  obtained  from  forty- 
five  hydrants,  supplied  by  the  works  of  the  Contra  Costa  Water 
Co.,  and  five  cisterns.  The  estimated  value  of  the  Department 
property,  December,  1873,  is  $30,000.

CHURCHES 


First  Baptist. 

Location,  southeast  corner  of  Fourteenth  and  Brush  streets. 
(Vacant),  Pastor. 

This  church  was  organized  in  December,  1854,  under  the 
labors  of  Rev.  E.  J.  AVillis,  missionary. 

The  first  house  of  worship  was  dedicated  December,  1854, 
and  was  the  second  Protestant  house  of  worship  comi^leted  in 
this  cit}'.  It  was  located  at  the  corner  of  Fifth  and  Jefferson 
streets,  and  cost  with  the  land  about  $2,000. 

Mr.  Willis'  pastorate  terminated  in  June,  1856.  The  church 
was  without  a  Pastor  for  about  a  year.  In  May,  1857,  Rev.  Har- 
vey Gilbert  began  to  preach,  and  four  months  later,  was  settled 
as  Pastor.  He  resigned  in  December,  1858,  and  was  succeeded 
in  April,  1859,  by  Rev.  J.  B.  Saxton.  In  May,  1863,  Mr.  Saxton 
having  left,  Rev.  John  Francis  became  Pastor  of  the  church. 
Soon  thereafter  the  house  of  worship  was  removed  to  the  corner 
of  Ninth  and  Clay  streets — a  more  eligible  situation  in  view  of 
the  rapid  growth  of  the  city.  This  house,  and  the  lot  on  which 
it  was  located,  were  sold,  when  the  new  edifice  was  erected  to  the 
Oakland  Turn  Yerein. 

Mr.  Francis  resigned  in  July,  1864,  and  was  succeeded,  in 
November  of  the  same  year,  by  Rev.  A.  L.  Baker,  a  recent  grad- 
uate from  Rochester.  Mr.  Baker  was  compelled  to  resign  in  a 
few  months  on  account  of  ill-health.  In  July,  1865,  Rev.  B.  T. 
Martin  was  called  to  the  pastorate,  and  continued  Pastor  for 
nearly  six  years.  During  Mr.  Martin's  pastorate,  the  present 
house  of  worship  was  erected,  at  a  cost  of  about  $30,000,  and 
was  formally  dedicated  in  March,  1869,  the  chapel  in  the  rear 
having  been  occupied  three  months  before,  and  used  while  the 
main  building;  was  being  completed.     The  lot  cost  $2,500. 

In  Febniary,  1871,  Mr.  Martin  resigned  his  position  as  Pastor, 
since  which  time  the  church  has  had  supplies  most  of  the  time, 
until  June,  1873,  when  the  Rev.  R.  F.  Parshall  assumed  the  du- 
ties of  Pastor,  who  continued  until  Oct.,  1873,  when  he  resigned. 

iSei-vices  every  Sunday,  at  forty- five  minutes  past  ten  o'clock 
A.M.,  and  half  past  seven  o'clock  p.m.  Prayer  meeting,  "Wednes- 
day evenings.  Covenant  meeting,  Wednesday  evening  before 
first  Sabbath  in  each  month. 

The  Sunday  School  connected  with  the  church  was  organized 
in  1854.  It  has  an  attendance  of  over  two  hundred  scholars, 
and  a  library  of  five  hundred  volumes.  Meets  at  one  o'clock  p.m. 
Superintendent,  A.  W.  Brodt.  A  Chinese  Sunday  School  of  one 
hundred  pupils  is  connected  with  the  church.  Meets  at  six 
o'clock  P.M.     Superintendent,  J.  P.  Cogswell.

was  convened.  For  various  reasons,  however,  the  project  was 
for  the  time  abandoned.  Toward  the  close  of  the  same  year,  the 
Rev.  Dr.  Morgan  appeared,  and  preached  a  sermon  to  a  small 
but  attentive  audience  beneath  the  branches  of  one  of  Oakland's 
shady  trees;  and  so  favorable  was  the  impression  then  made, 
that  it  was  determined  that  a  covered  church  of  some  kind 
should  be  procured  by  the  following  Sunday,  if  the  reverend 
gentleman  would  repeat  his  visit.  A  large  tent,  twenty-five  by 
seventy  feet,  was  erected,  with  a  cross  upon  the  apex  to  desig- 
nate the  object  of  the  structure,  and  a  temporary  pulpit  fitted 
up.  Mr.  Morgan,  however,  was  in  some  manner  detained,  but  a 
Presbyterian  minister,  the  Rev.  Mr.  Walsworth,  who  had  inci- 
dentally visited  Oakland,  being  present  in  the  congregation, 
was  invited  to  officiate.  The  same  week  the  tent  and  appur- 
tenances were  sold  to  the  Presbyterians. 

In  December,  1854,  the  Right  Rev.  Bishop  Kip  celebrated  di- 
vine service  in  a  room  that  had  been  prepared  for  the  purj)ose. 
In  January,  1855,  the  missionary.  Rev.  E.  W.  Syle  arrived,  and 
became  acting  Rector  of  the  emloryo  jDarish,  The  first  commun- 
ion service  was  celebrated  on  Sunday,  February  4,  when  eleven 
communed  with  the  Rector.  On  March  5  of  the  same  year,  the 
parish  was  regularly  incorporated  and  trustees  elected,  but  it 
was  not  until  the  8th  of  August  following  that  a  constitution  and 
by-laws  were  finally  adopted.  During  die  same  month  a  rented 
room  was  fitted  up  as  a  church,  with  benches,  at  a  cost  of  $150, 
current  expenses  being  met  by  collections  every  Sunday. 
.  The  Rev.  Mr.  Syle  resigned  January,  1856,  and  from  that 
time  lay  services  were  regularly  held.  Bishop  Kip  occasionally 
officiating. 

In  July,  1856,  the  Rev.  James  W.  Caj)en  became  Rector,  and 
continued  in  charge  until  1857,  when  he  resigned.

charge of  his  duties.

gregation officiated  for  several  years  as  Pastor  of  the  First  Pres- 
byterian Church  in  this  city,  but  for  opinions  expressed  by  him 
he  was  tried  before  the  Presbytery,  and  subsequently  before  the 
Synod,  resulting  in  his  being  deposed  by  those  bodies  February 
24,  1869.  A  large  portion  of  Mr.  Hamilton's  congregation,  who 
were  opposed  to  this  decision  of  the  Presbytery  and  Synod,  de- 
termined upon  organizing  another  societ}'^,  and  secured  Bray  ton 
Hall  as  a  temporary  place  of  worship, 'where  services  were  held

Location,  west  side  of  Jefferson  Street,  between  Seventh  and

Assistant.     Pastoral  residence  adjoining  the  church. 

Twenty  years  ago  a  room  in  a  jorivate  house  served  as  a  place 
of  worship  for  the  Catholics  of  Oakland  and  nearly  the  whole  of 
the  present  County  of  Alameda.  A  priest  from  the  Mission  of 
San  Jose  occasionally  made  a  visit  to  celebrate  mass  and  admin- 
ister the  sacraments,  and  even  these  occasional  visits  had  to  be 
omitted  during  the  rainy  season,  owing  to  the  bad  roads.  The 
first  church,  a  building  of  the  most  modest  description,  was 
erected  in  1853  through  the  exertions  of  a  few  of  the  congrega- 
tion, and  for  some  time  was  the  only  Catholic  place  of  worship 
in  the  whole  of  Alameda  and  Contra  Costa  counties,  with  the  ex- 
ception of  the  old  Mission.  Subsequent  additions,  made  by  the 
Rev.  Fathers  Croke  and  King,  increased  the  size  of  this  edifice 
until  it  was  capable  of  holding  a  congregation  of  several  hun- 
dreds, but  this,  too,  has  become  entirely  inadequate  to  the  needs 
of  the  population  of  Oakland  although  three  new  i^arishes  have 
been  formed  in  the  county.  In  1869,  Father  King  determined 
to  erect  a  church  on  a  scale  commensurate  with  the  promised  im- 
portance of  this  city.  Plans  accordingly  were  prej^ared  for  a 
building  surpassing  in  dimensions  anything  in  the  State,  though 
only  with  the  intention  of  erecting  a  part  of  it  at  first,  a  design 
Avhich  has  been  carried  out  in  the  present  structure.  The  foun- 
dations were  laid  in  that  year,  but  various  causes  retarded  any

further  progi-ess  until  May,  1871,  when  the  superstructure  was 
commenced,  and  pushed  Tigorouslv  forward  since.  Although 
not  quite  completed,  the  church  was  dedicated  on  the  23d  of 
June,  1872.  The  ceremony  of  dedication  was  performed  by  the 
Archbishop  Alemany.  The  sermon  was  preached  by  Father 
Gallagher,  to  whom,  nearly  twenty  years  ago,  the  Catholics  of 
Oakland  were  in  a  great  measure  indebted  for  their  first  place 
of  worship. 

The  new  church  is  of  wood,  with  heavy  brick  foundations,  and 
built  in  the  strongest  manner,  with  double  walls  firmly  braced 
together.  The  nave  roof  principals  are  suj)ported  by  posts  twelve 
inches  square  and  fifty-four  feet  long,  to  which  the  principals  of 
the  aisle  roofs  are  secured  at  a  height  of  about  thirty-four  feet, 
and  these  at  the  outside  rest  on  posts  eight  inches  square  and 
strengthened  by  side  buttresses.  The  style  of  the  building  is 
early  Gothic,  and  it  consists  of  a  nave,  side  aisles,  chancel,  and 
two  front  towers.  The  latter  are  to  be  surmounted  by  sjiires  at 
a  future  period,  but  even  in  their  joresent  state,  their  height  (one 
hundred  and  four  feet  to  the  top  of  the  pinnacles)  and  size  give  a 
highly  imposing  appearance  to  the  front.  The  roof  is  open;  on 
the  inside  the  spaces  between  the  principals  and  tie-beams,  and 
the  latter  and  the  arch-braces  in  both  nave  and  aisle  roofs,  being 
filled  in  with  light  and  elegant  open-work  traeeiy.  The  ceiling  is 
paneled  and  i:)ainted  blue,  with  stars;  the  woodwork  being  paint- 
ed white  with  flower  patterns  in  tertiary  colors.  At  the  sides,  the 
arch-braces  under  the  roof  timbers  are  terminated  in  carved  niches, 
intended  to  receive  statues  of  the  twelve  apostles.  The  cornices 
are  also  of  wood,  the  arches  between  the  nave  and  aisles  and 
the  chancel-arch  being,  with  the  walls  and  ceiling  under  the  organ 
gallery,  the  only  plaster  work  in  the  building.  The  organ  gallery 
jDrojects  only  a  few  feet  into  the  church,  thus  allowing  its  full  di- 
mensions to  be  better  appreciated.  The  "o^indows  are  filled  with 
rich  stained  glass,  the  heads  being  ornamented  with  emblematic 
figures,  and  the  large  front  window  being  quite  a  fine  specimen 
of  artistic  design.  Much  of  the  interior  work  is  yet  unfinished, 
but  that  which  has  been  done  gives  promise  of  an  excellent  finish 
when  completed.  It  is  not  the  least  satisfactory  matter  in  con- 
nection with  this  building  that  it  is  entirely  the  product  of  Cali- 
fornia design  and  workmanship.  Nearly  all  the  men  employed 
on  it  resided  at  Oakland ;  the  stained  glass  was  manufactured  by 
Mallon  &  Boyle,  of  San  Francisco,  and  the  fresco  painting  execut- 
ed by  S.  Buzzi,  of  the  same  city.  The  entire  cost  of  this  build- 
ing is  about  833,000,  and  it  may  be  safely  set  down  as  one  of  the 
cheapest  erections  of  its  kind  in  California.  It  will  seat  about 
twelve  hundred  and  fifty  j^ersons.

reficliecl  Oakland,  several  benevolent  ladies  of  this  city  met  and 
organized  a  sewing  society,  for  the  relief  of  the  sufferers.  After 
this  object  was  accomplished  they  concluded  to  organize  under 
the  name  of  the  Ladies'  Relief  Society,  for  the  purpose  of  aiding 
the  destitute  of  their  own  city,  especially  women  and  children, 
and  also  to  jDrovide  a  home  for  aged  females. 

During  the  past  year  Elijah  Bigelow,  Esq.,  donated  to  the  so- 
ciety'- a  lot  on  Franklin  Street,  between  Fourteenth  and  Fif- 
teenth, valued  at  $7,000,  which  he  subsequently  exchanged  for 
three  and  a  half  acres  of  land  near  Temescal  Creek  and  directly 
on  the  line  of  the  Berkeley  Eailroad.  From  the  proceeds  of  a  fair 
held  under  the  ausj^icesof  the  association  and  contributions,  they 
have  already  collected  a  building  fund  of  $3,500,  and  propose 
as  soon  as  practicable  to  commence  the  erection  of  a  home,  for 
which  the  j^lans  have  already  been  prepared.  In  the  meantime 
they  have  rented  a  building  on  Webster  Street  near  Seventeenth, 
for  a  temporary  home  until  their  own  edifice  is  completed .  At 
present  there  are  twenty-two  inmates . 

The  society  is  governed  by  a  Board  of  Managers,  consisting  of

refer  apjDlicants  to  the  Treasurer  for  relief. 

Assistance  is  rendered  not  only  with  great  caution,  but  with 
great  secrecy  and  delicacy,  when  necessary.  No  degradation 
consequently  will  follow  such  relief;  nor  will  it  be  the  means  of 
undermining  one  right  principle,  or  of  enfeebling  one  well-di- 
rected impulse. 

The  annual  meeting  is  held  on  the  first  Monday  of  June,  at 
which  time  an  Executive  Committee,  consisting  of  fifteen  gentle- 
men and  fifteen  ladies,  are  elected,  who  hold  office  for  the  term 
of  one  year.

and  detailed  report  of  the  condition  and  all  the  transactions  of 
the  society  during  the  preceding  quarter.

term  not  less  than  one  nor  more  than  fourteen  years.  There- 
upon, said  Council  shall  separately  assess  the  amount  of  damages

damages  as  aforesaid,  the  said  Council  shall  only  award  them 
nominal  damages.  Any  owner  or  occupant  of  land  aggrieved  by

executed  by  two  good  and  sufficient  sureties,  to  be  approved  by 
the  Mayor  of  said  city,  which  said  undertaking  shall  be  condi-

of  the  appeal  and  all  costs  that  may  be  recovered  against  him  or 
them  in  said  County  Court:  provided,  he  or  they  recover  therein 
no  greater  sum  as  damages  than  were  assessed  or  allowed  by 
said  Council,  together  with  ten  per  cent,  additional  thereto — the 
County  Judge  shall  order  a  special  term  of  said  County  Court 
to  be  holden  upon  a  day  to  be  designated,  not  more  than  ten 
days  after  filing  said  certified  copy  of  said  resolution  or  order,  at 
which  said  special  term,  the  said  issue  as  to  damages  should  be 
tried  de  novo,  with  or  without  a  jury,  as  the  parties  may  de- 
sire; and  ui^on  the  rendition  of  judgment  therein,  a  certified  copy 
thereof  shall  be  transmitted  by  the  Clerk  of  said  Court  to  the 
Clerk  of  the  City  Council,  who,  upon  the  order  of  said  Council, 
shall  cause  the  amount  thereof  to  be  paid  by  the  Marshal  of  said 
city  to  the  parties  entitled  to  the  same.  Said  judgment  shall 
separately  state  the  amount  of  damages  to  which  each  party  is 
entitled.  If  the  appellants,  or  either  of  them,  recover  no  more 
in  said  County  Court  than  the  amount  allowed  or  assesssd  to 
him  by  said  Council,  together  with  ten  per  cent,  additional  there- 
to, he  shall  pay  the  costs  of  the  appeal;  but  if  he  or  they  recover 
a  sum  more  than  ten  per  cent,  beyond  the  amount  so  allowed, 
he  shall  be  entitled  to  recover  of  said  city  the  said  costs  of  ap-

may  petition  the  said  City  Council  to  order  any  of  the  work  men- 
tioned in  section  two  of  this  Act  to  be  done,  and  the  said  City 
Council  may  order  the  work  mentioned  in  said  petition  to  be  done 
after  notice  of  their  intention  so  to  do  has  been  published  as  pro- 
vided in  section  three  of  this  Act.  No  order  or  permission  shall 
be  given  to  grade,  pave,  plank,  or  macadamize  any  street,  lane,

Sec.  5.  Before  giving  out  any  contracts  by  the  City  Council 
for  doing  any  work  authorized  ly  section  two  of  this  Act,  the  City

the  Council  room  door  of  said  Council,  and  also  published  for  five 
days  in  some  daily  paper  to  be  designated  by  said  Council,  inviting 
sealed  proposals  for  the  work  contemplated.  All  proposals  ofi'ered 
shall  be  delivered  to  the  Clerk  of  said  City  Council,  and  said 
Council  shall,  in  open  session,  open,  examine,  and  j)ublicly  de- 
clare the  same,  and  award  the  contract  for  said  work,  in  their 
discretion,  to  the  lowest  responsible  bidder  :  2J7~ovided,  said  Coun- 
cil may  reject  any  and  all  bids,  should  they  deem  it  for  the  pub- 
lic good,  and  also  the  bid  of  any  party  who  may  have  proved  de- 
linquent or  unfaithful  in  any  former  contract  with  said  city.  All 
proposals  shall  be  accomjianied  by  a  bond  in  the  sum  of  one  thou- 
sand dollars,  signed  by  the  bidder  and  by  two  sureties,  who  shall 
justify  in  the  manner  hereinafter  provided,  conditioned  to  pay 
to  the  said  City  of  Oakland  the  full  sum  of  one  thousand  dollars, 
as  liquidated  damages,  if  the  bidder  to  whom  the  contract  is 
awarded  shall  fail  or  neglect  to  enter  into  a  contract  as  herein- 
after provided.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  City  Attorney  to  sue 
on  said  bonds  in  the  name  of  said  city,  and  to  pay  the  amount 
recovered  over  to  the  treasurer  of  said  city.  The  City  Council 
shall  have  power  to  relieve  the  contractor  from  the  performance 
of  the  conditions  of  said  bond  when  good  cause  is  shown  there- 
for. All  persons  (owners  included)  who  shall  fail  to  enter  into 
contracts,  as  herein  provided,  are  hereby  prohibited  from  bidding 
a  second  time  for  the  same  work.  Notice  of  such  awards  shall 
be  published  for  five  days,  in  the  same  manner  as  hereinbefore 
provided  for  publication  of  proposals  of  such  work.  The  owners 
of  the  major  part  of  the  frontage  of  lots  and  lands  liable  to  be 
assessed  for  said  work,  shall  not  be  required  to  present  sealed 
proposals,  but  may,  within  said  five  days  after  first  publication  of 
notice  of  said  award,  elect  to  take  said  work,  and  enter  into  a 
written  contract  to  do  the  whole  work  at  the  price  at  which  the 
same  may  have  been  awarded.  Should  the  said  owners  fail  to 
commence  the  work  within  ten  days  after  the  first  publication  of 
the  notice  of  said  award,  and  prosecute  the  same  with  due  dili- 
gence to  completion,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  City  Marshal  to 
enter  into  a  contract  with  the  original  bidder  to  whom  the  con-

tract  was  awarded,  and  at  the  prices  the  same  may  have  been 
awarded  him  ;  but  if  such  bidder  neglects  for  fifteen  days  after 
the  first  publication  of  the  notice  of  said  award,  to  enter  into  the 
the  contract,  then  the  City  Council  shall  again  publish,  for  said 
five  days,  and  pursue  the  steps  required  by  this  section  the  same 
as  in  the  first  instance.  If  the  owners  who  may  have  taken  said 
contract  do  not  complete  the  same  within  the  time  limited  in  the 
contract,  or  within  such  further  time  as  the  said  City  Council 
may  give  them,  the  said  Marshal  shall  report  such  delinquency 
to  the  City  Council,  who  may  relet  the  unfinished  portion  of  said 
work,  after  having  pursued  the  formalities  of  this  section  as 
stated  aforesaid.  All  such  contractors  shall,  at  the  time  of  the 
execution  of  the  contract,  also  execute  a  bond  to  the  satisfaction 
of  the  Mayor  of  said  city,  with  two  or  more  sureties,  payable  to 
the  City  of  Oakland,  in  such  sums  as  the  said  Mayor  shall  deem 
adequate,  conditioned  for  the  faithful  performance  of  the  con- 
tract, and  the  sureties  shall  justify  before  any  officer  competent 
to  administer  an  oath,  in  double  the  amount  mentioned  in  said 
bond,  over  and  above  all  statutory  exemptions.  Any  person  suf- 
fering damages  by  reason  of  the  breach  of  said  contract,  may 
sue  on  such  bond  in  his  own  name.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the 
Marshall  to  collect  from  the  contractors,  before  the  contract  is 
signed  by  him,  the  cost  of  publication  of  the  notice  required 
under  the  proceedings  prescribed  in  this  Act. — [Amendment, 
March  29,  1870.] 

Sec.  6.  The  Marshal  of  said  city  is  hereby  authorized  in  his 
official  cai:)acity  to  make  all  written  contracts  and  receive  all  bonds 
authorized  by  this  Act,  and  to  do  any  other  act,  either  expressed 
or  implied,  that  jDcrtains  to  the  Street  Department  under  this  Act, 
and  the  said  Marshal  shall  fix  the  time  for  the  commencement  of 
the  work  under  all  contracts  entered  into  by  him,  which  work 
shall  be  prosecuted  with  due  diligence  from  day  to  day  thereafter 
to  completion,  and  may  extend  the  time  so  fixed  from  time  to 
time  under  the  direction  of  the  City  Council.  The  work  provided 
for  in  section  two  of  this  Act  must  in  all  cases  be  done  under  the 
direction  and  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Marshal,  and  the  materials 
used  shall  be  such  as  are  required  by  said  Marshal;  and  all  con- 
tracts made  therefore  must  contain  this  condition  and  also  express 
notice,  that  in  no  case,  except  where  it  is  otherwise  provided  in 
this  Act,  will  the  city  be  liable  for  any  portion  of  the  expense, 
nor  for  any  delinquency  of  jDcrsons  or  property  assessed.  The 
assessment  and  apportionment  of  the  expenses  of  all  such  work 
in  the  mode  herein  provided  shall  be  made  by  the  said  Marshal. 

Sec.  7.  Subdivision  One— The  expenses  incurred  for  any  work 
authorized  by  section  two  of  this  Act  shall  be  assessed  upon  the

provided  ;  each  lot  or  portion  of  a  lot  being  separately  assessed 
in  proportion  to  the  frontage,  at  a  rate  per  front  foot  sufficient 
to  cover  the  total  expenses  of  the  work. 

Subdivision  Tivo— The  expenses  of  all  improvements,  except 
such  as  are  done  by  contractors  under  the  provisions  of  section

places,  or  courts,  are  finally  accepted  as  provided  in  section 
twenty  of  this  Act,  shall  be  assessed  upon  the  lots  and  lands  as 
provided  in  this  section,  according  to  the  nature  and  character 
of  the  work  ;  (and  after  such  acceptance,  the  exj)ense  of  all  work 
thereafter  done  thereon  shall  be  paid  by  said  city  out  of  the 
Street  Departroent  Fund). 

Subdivision  Three — The  expense  of  work  done  on  main  street 
crossings  shall  be  assessed  upon  the  four  quarter  blocks  adjoin-

upon  the  lots  in  each  of  the  two  quarter  blocks  adjoining  and

their  behalf,  shall  publicly  demand  jjayment  on  the  premises 
assessed.  The  warrant  shall  be  returned  to  the  Marshal  within

behalf,  verified  upon  oath,  stating  the  nature  and  character  of 
the  demand,  and  whether  any  of  the  assessments  remain  unpaid, 
in  whole  or  in  part,  and  the  amount  thereof.  ThereujDon  the 
Marshal  shall  record  the  return  so  made,  in  the  margin  of  the 
record  of  the  warrant  and  assessment,  and  also  the  original  con- 
tract referred  to  therein;  if  it  has  not  already  been  recorded,  at  full 
length,  in  a  book  to  be  kept  for  that  purpose  in  his  office,  and  shall 
sign  the  record.  The  said  Marshal  is  authorized  at  any  time  to  re- 
ceive the  amount  due  upon  any  assessment  list  and  warrant  issued

ment upon  the  books  of  his  office,  on  the  production  to  him  of

been  so  returned.  After  the  return  of  the  assessment  and  war- 
rant as  aforesaid,  all  amounts  remaining  due  thereon  shall  draw 
interest  at  the  rate  of  one  per  cent,  per  month,  until  paid. —

29,  1870.] 

Sec.  12.  At  any  time  after  the  period  of  thirty-five  days  from 
the  day  of  the  date  of  the  warrant,  as  hereinbefore  provided,  or  if 
any  appeal  is  taken  to  the  City  Council,  as  is  i^rovided  in  section 
eleven  of  this  Act,  at  any  time  after  five  days  from  the  decision 
of  said  Council,  or  after  the  return  of  the  warrant  or  assessment, 
after  the  same  may  have  been  corrected,  altered,  or  modified,  as 
provided  in  section  eleven  of  this  Act,  (but  not  less  than  thirty- 
five  days  from  the  date  of  the  warrant)  the  contractor  or  his  as- 
signee may  sue,  in  his  own  name,  the  owner  of  the  land,  lots  or 
portions  of  lots  assessed,  on  the  day  of  the  date  of  the  recording

gram, with  the  affidavit  of  demand  and  non-payment,  shall  be

plaintiff  to  recover  in  the  action.  The  Court  in  which  such  suit 
shall  be  commenced  shall  have  power  to  adjudge  and  decree  a 
lien  against  the  j) remises  assessed,  and  to  order  such  premises  to

by  the  process  of  said  Courts  ;  and  on  appeal,  the  appellate 
Court  shall  be  vested  with  the  same  power  to  adjudge  and  decree 
a  lien,  and  to  order  to  be  sold  such  premises,  on  execution  or  de- 
cree, as  is  conferred  on  the  Court  from  which  an  appeal  is  taken. 
Such  premises,  if  sold,  may  be  redeemed  as  in  other  cases.  In 
all  suits  now  pending  or  hereafter  to  be  brought,  to  recover  street 
assessments,  the  proceedings  therein  shall  be  governed  and  regu- 
lated by  the  provisions  of  this  Act,  and  also,  when  not  in  conflict 
herewith,  by  the  Civil  Practice  Act  of  this  State.  This  Act  shall 
be  liberally  construed  to  effect  the  ends  of  justice. — [Amendment, 
March  29,  1870.]

the  owner,  tenant,  or  occupant,  to  the  centre  of  the  street,  or 
otherwise,  as  the  case  may  require,  specifying  in  said  notice  what 
improvement  is  required.  After  the  expiration  of  three  days,  the 
said  Marshal  shall  be  deemed  to  have  acquired  jurisdiction  to 
contract  for  the  doing  of  the  work  or  improvements  required  by 
said  notice.  If  such  improvement  be  not  commenced  within 
three  days  after  notice  given  as  aforesaid,  and  diligently  and 
without  interruption  prosecuted  to  completion,  the  said  Marshal 
may  enter  into  a  contract  with  any  suitable  person  applying  to

lien,  the  same  as  provided  in  section  nine  of  this  Act,  and  may  be 
enforced  in  the  same  manner. 

Sec.  14.  If  the  expenses  of  the  work  and  material  for  such 
improvements,  after  the  completion  thereof,  be  not  i^aid  to  the 
contractor  so  employed,  or  his  agent  or  assignee,  on  demand,  the 
said  contractor  or  his  assigns  shall  have  the  right  to  sue  the 
owner,  tenant,  or  occupant,  under  the  provisions  of  this  Act,  for 
the  amount  contracted  to  be  paid ;  and  the  certificate  of  the  Mar- 
shal that  the  work  has  been  properly  done,  and  that  the  charges 
for  the  same  are  reasonable  and  just,  shall  be  prima  facie  evi- 
dence of  the  amount  claimed  for  said  work  and  materials,  and  of 
the  right  of  the  contractor  to  recover  for  the  same  in  such  action. 

Sec.  15.  In  addition,  and  as  cumulative  to  the  remedies  above 
given,  the  City  Council  shall  have  power,  by  resolution  or  ordi- 
nance, to  prescribe  the  penalties  that  shall  be  incurred  by  any 
owner  or  person  liable  or  neglecting  or  refusing  to  make  improve-

city  by  prosecution  in  the  name  of  The  People  of  the  State  of 
California,  in  the  court  having  jurisdiction  thereof,  may  be  ap- 
plied, if  deemed  expedient  by  the  said  Council,  in  payment  of 
the  expenses  of  any  such  improvements,  when  not  otherwise  pro- 
vided for. 

Sec.  16.  The  person  owning  the  fee,  or  the  person  in  possession 
of  lands,  lots,  or  portions  of  lots,  or  buildings  under  claim,  or 
exercising  acts  of  ownership  over  the  same,  shall  be  regarded, 
treated,  and  deemed  to  be  the  "  owner,"  (for  the  purpose  of  this 
law)  according  to  the  intent  and  meaning  of  that  word  as  used  in 
this  Act.  And  in  case  of  iDro^Derty  leased,  the  possession  of  the 
tenant  or  lessee  holding  and  occui^ying  under  such  persons  shall 
be  deemed  to  be  the  possession  of  such  owner,  and  the  person 
so  defined  to  be  the  owner  shall  be  personally  liable  for  the  pay- 
ment of  any  charge  or  assessment  lawfully  made  or  assessed  upon 
said  lands,  lots,  or  portions  of  lots,  by  said  Marshal,  or  con- 
tracted to  be  paid  to  the  contractor,  for  improvements  to  cover 
the  expense  of  any  work  done  under  and  authorized  by  the  pro- 
visions of  this  Act.

pay  the  amount  assessed  against  the  property  of  which  he  is  the 
tenant  or  lessee  under  the  provisions  of  this  Act,  or  he  may  pay 
the  price  agreed  on  to  be  paid  under  the  provision  of  section 
thirteen  of  this  Act,  either  before  or  after  suit  brought,  together 
with  costs,  to  the  contractor  or  his  assigns,  or  he  may  redeem 
the  property  if  sold  on  execution  or  degree,  for  the  benefit  of 
the  owner,  within  the  time  prescribed  by  law,  and  deduct  the 
amount  so  paid  from  the  rents  due  and  to  become  due  from  him.

that  reference  may  be  easily  had  thereto. 

Sec.  21.  The  said  Marshal  shall  keep  a  public  office  in  some 
convenient  place  to  be  designated  by  the  City  Council,  and  such

after  its  passage. 


*  The  Act  of  the  Legislature  approved  December  29th,  1871,  amends  the  road  law  of 
Alameda  County,  and  provides  new  regulations  for  levying  and  collecting  road  taxes, 
but  the  City  of  Oakland  is  wholly  excluded  from  the  operation  of  the  Act,  so  that  hero- 
after  the  Supervisors  cannot  levy  any  road  tax  in  Oakland  at  all.  An  application  was 
made  for  a  peremptory  writ  of  mandate  to  compel  the  County  Treasurer  to  pay  to  the  Treas- 
urer of  the  City  of  Oakland  811,015.44,  the  amount  due  Oakland  from  the  taxes  for  the 
fiscal  year  1871-2.  Judge  McKee,  of  the  Third  District  Court,  decided  that  it  was  the 
duty  of  the  County  Treasurer  to  pay  the  money  to  the  City,  but  he  dismissed  the  appli- 
cation because  no  showing,  based  upon  legal  evidence,  was  made  in  behalf  of  the  City  to 
prove  the  amount  due.

ARY 31,  1870.  WITH  THE  AMENDMENT  THERETO,  APPROVED  JANU- 
ARY 16,  1872. 

The  People  of  the  State  of  California, 

represented  in  Senate  and  Assembly,  do  enact  as  follows  : 

Section  1.  Whenever  a  petition  shall  be  presented  to  the 
Council  of  the  City  of  Oakland,  signed  by  at  least  three  residents 
and  freeholders  of  said  city,  each  of  whom  shall  be  directly  inter- 
ested in  the  property  to  be  affected  thereby,  asking  for  the  laying 
out,  opening,  extending,  straightening,  or  widening  any  street  or 
highway  in  said  city,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  said  Council  to 
examine  into  said  matter,  and  if,  in  the  opinion  of  a  majority  of 
all  the  members  elected  to  said  Council,  to  be  expressed  by  a 
resolution  to  be  entered  upon  their  minutes  with  the  names  of  the 
members  voting  therefor,  the  benefits  to  arise  from  granting  said 
petition,  in  whole  or  in  part,  will  exceed  the  damages  and  expen- 
ses to  be  caused  thereby,  and  the  convenience  of  the  public  will 
thereby  be  promoted,  they  may  by  resolution  direct  the  City  En- 
gineer to  survey  and  make  a  map  of  the  said  j)roj)Osed  improve- 
ment and  of  the  premises  to  be  affected  thereby,  a  copy  of  which 
resolution  shall  forthwith  be  transmitted  by  the  Clerk  of  said 
Council  to  said  City  Engineer. 

Sec.  2.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  City  Engineer,  upon  receiv- 
ing such  notice,  to  proceed  and  survey  said  proposed  imjjrove- 
ment,  to  make  a  map  thereof,  showing  the  location,  boundaries, 
the  amount  of  land  necessary  to  be  taken,  and  the  names  of  the 
owners  or  possessors  thereof,  showing  the  portions  owned  or  pos- 
sessed by  each,  and  to  return  the  same  to  the  Council  within  ten 
days  after  the  receipt  of  said  resolution  by  him,  unless  longer 
time  shall  be  granted  by  said  Council  therefor. 

Sec.  3.  Upon  receiving  said  map  and  return  from  the  said 
Engineer,  the  said  Council  shall  forthwith  give  notice  of  not  less 
than  five  days,  by  publication  in  not  less  than  two  daily  news- 
papers, if  there  be  so  many  j)ublished  in  said  city,  of  the  time 
and  place  where  they  will  hear  all  parties  desiring  to  show  cause 
against  the  said  improvement.  At  the  time  and  place  designated 
in  such  notice,  or  at  such  subsequent  time  as  the  Council  may 
adjourn  to — but  svich  adjournment  shall  not,  in  the  aggregate,  ex- 
ceed seven  days — the  said  Council  shall  proceed  with  such  hear- 
ing. 

Sec.  4.  If  no  objections  be  made,  or  if,  after  hearing  the  ob- 
jections thereto,  the  Council  shall  remain  of  the  opinion  that 
such  improvement  should  be  made,  they  shall  elect,  by  ballot, 
three  Commissioners,  residents  and  property  owners  in  said  city, 
not  interested,  directly  or  indirectly,  in  the  proposed  improve- 
ment, or  in  the  projoerty  to  be  affected  thereby,  to  assess  the 
damages  and  benefits  to  be  caused  by  said  improvement.  With- 
in two  days  thereafter,  said  Commissioners  shall  give  notice  of 
the  time  and  place  where  they  will  proceed  to  examine  the  prop-

erty  to  be  affected  by  such  improvement,  by  an  advertisement  in 
two  newspapers,  if  there  be  so  many  published  in  said  city,  such 
time  to  be  not  more  than  three  days  thereafter ;  at  the  time  and 
place  named,  they  shall  proceed  to  examine  the  land  and  im- 
provements to  be  affected  by  the  proj)osed  improvement,  and 
shall  first  ascertain  the  amount  of  damages  to  be  sustained  ;  the 
names  of  the  owners  of  the  j)roperty  to  be  damaged,  and  the 
amount  to  be  paid  to  each  of  such  owners  therefor.  They  shall 
then  assess  upon  the  property  to  be  benefited  by  such  improve- 
ment a  sum  sufiicient  to  pay  the  whole  amount  of  said  damages, 
and  the  fees  and  expenses  of  the  said  Commissioners,  and  shall 
apiDortion  the  same  among  the  owners  of  the  several  parcels  of 
property  to  be  thus  benefited,  in  proj)ortion  to  the  amount  of 
benefits  to  accrue  to  each.*  In  making  such  estimate  and  ap- 
portionment, they  shall  take  all  pertinent  testimony  that  may  be 
offered  them,  and  may  examine  any  witnesses  that  they  shall 
deem  it  necessary  or  advisable  to  call,  and  shall  have  authority 
to  administer  oaths  to  all  persons  testifying  before  them.  With- 
in twenty-one  days  after  their  appointment,  unless  further  time 
be  granted  by  the  Council,  they  shall  make  a  report  to  said  Coun- 
cil of  the  assessments  and  awards  so  made  by  them,  with  the  names 
and  amounts  of  the  persons  damaged  or  benefited  asaforesaid. 

Sec.  5.  Upon  receiving  such  report,  said  Council  may,  if  in 
their  judgment  the  said  report  is  legal,  and  the  said  assessment 
therein  contained  is  in  accordance  with  law,  by  ordinance,  levy  a 
taxf  upon  the  several  parcels  of  property  reported  as  benefited 
by  said  im]Drovement,  for  the  amounts  severally  charged  against 
each  in  said  report,  which  tax  shall  be  a  lien  upon  the  several 
parcels  of  property  severally,  and  shall  not  be  removed  until  said 
tax  is  paid.  Immediately  upon  levying  such  tax  the  City 
Marshal  shall  serve  a  notice  in  writing  upon  each  owner  of  the 
land  so  taxed,  or  his  lawful  agent ;  or  in  case  such  owner  or 
agent  cannot   be  found,  to  post  such  notice  in  a  conspicuous 

'■■•A  case  was  made  by  C.  T.  Jaeobos  and  carried  to  the  Supreme  Court,  September  term, 
1871,  which  set  aside  the  report  of  the  Commissioners,  on  the  ground  that  thoy  had  not 
awarded  the  damages  or  assessed  the  benefits  in  the  manner  required  by  the  Act.  That 
Court  very  justly  characterized  the  law  as  ambiguous:  but  taking  the  whole  Act  together, 
they  held  that  it  is  necessary  to  first  award  to  the  parties  whose  property  is  taken  for 
the  street,  or  damaged  by  its  opening,  the  amount  of  the  damage,  irrespective  of  any 
benefit  that  may  accrue  to  them,  and  that  the  benefit  must  be  separately  assessed.  In 
other  words,  that  all  the  damages  must  be  first  ascertained  and  added  together,  then 
the  benefits  to  each  piece  of  property  in  the  district  affected  ascertained,  and  all  the 
benefits  added  together,  and  then  the  assessment  that  each  is  to  pay  will  be  that  propor- 
tion of  the  total  damage  that  the  benefit  in  his  particular  piece  of  property  bears  to  the 
whole  of  the  benefits.  To  illustrate  :  If  the  total  of  the  value  of  the  land  taken  to  open 
the  street  is  $10,000,  and  the  property  on  both  sides  will  be  benefited  $2000,  and  A's  par- 
ticular lot  will  be  benefited  S500,  then  A  pays  500-2,000,  or  l-lOth  of  the  110,000.  The  last 
Commission  adopted  the  method  of  taking  each  piece  of  property  separately,  and  if  the 
damage  exceeded  the  benefits,  allowed  the  difference  ;  and  this  method  was  adjudged  to 
be  erroneous  by  the  Supreme  Court.— Compiler. 

tAt  the  September  (1871)  term  of  the  County  Court  of  Alameda  Co.,  Judge  Nye  ren- 
dered a  decision  in  the  matter  of  the  application  of  Geo.  C.  Potter,  to  compel  the  Citv 
Council  to  pass  an  ordinance  levying  a  tax  for  the  purpose  of  widening  Broadway,  as 
recommended  by  Commissioners  duly  appointed  under  the  law.  The  Court  held 
that  the  acts  of  the  Council,  after  the  appointment  of  Commissioners,  were  ministerial, 
and  that  the  parties  to  whom  damages  might  be  awarded  could  compel  the  Council  by 
mandamus  to  pass  an  ordinance  levying  the  tax  recommended.  A  writ  was  accordingly 
issued  and  served,  but  from  other  reasons,  the  parties  in  interest  did  not  insist  upon  its 
enforcement— Compiler.

contain  the  name  of  the  owner  (if  known),  a  brief  description  of 
the  lands  taxed  and  the  amount  of  tax  levied,  and  that  the  i)ay- 
ment  of  the  said  tax  is  demanded  by  the  City  Treasurer  of  the 
City  of  Oakland  within  ten  days  from  the  service  of  such  notice. 
At  the  exjjiration  of  ten  days  from  the  time  of  service  on  each 
of  said  persons  and  property  so  taxed  as  aforesaid,  the  said 
Council  shall  issue  to  the  City  Marshal  a  warrant,  to  be  signed 
by  their  President  and  Clerk,  under  the  seal  of  the  city,  com- 
manding- him  to  levy  and  collect  all  of  the  said  tax  that  shall  be 
then  unpaid,  with  his  fees  for  collection  from  the  joroperty  upon 
which  the  same  is  a  lien  as  aforesaid,  and  shall  thereupon  deliver 
the  same  to  said  Marshal.     {Amendment,  January  16,  1872.) 

Sec.  G.  Ujjon  receiving  said  warrant,  said  Marshal  shall  pro- 
ceed to  collect  so  much  of  said  tax  as  is  unpaid,  by  levy  upon 
and  sale  of  the  several  portions  of  iDrojDerty  upon  which  the  said 
unpaid  tax  is  a  lien,  in  the  same  maimer  and  with  the  same  au- 
thority as  on  sales  on  execution  by  Sheriffs,  and  shall  return  said 
warrant,  with  his  doings  thereon,  within  thirty  days  after  the 
receipt  thereof  b}'  him.  If  for  any  reason  the  whole  amount 
thereof  shall  not  be  coUectec],  said  Council  may  issue,  with  like 
effect,  a  subsequent  warrant  or  warrants  until  all  be  collected. 

Sec.  7.  As  soon  as  money  enough  for  that  purpose  is  re- 
ceived from  said  tax,  said  Council  shall  direct  the  City  Marshal 
to  pay  or  tender  to  each  party  to  whom  damages  have  been 
awarded,  the  sums  severally  due  to  them,  and  thereupon  to  pro- 
ceed forthwith  and  open  said  street  or  other  improvement ;  and

ALAMEDA    ENCINAL. 

The  Alameda  Encinal  was  commenced  on  the  14th  of  Septem- 
ber, 1869,  by  Mr.  F.  Hess,  of  the  San  Francisco  Demokrat,  a 
resident  of  Alameda,  more  to  enliven  the  regular  travelers  over 
the  Alameda  Ferry,  than  with  a  view  to  establishing  a  permanent 
newspaper.  The  first  five  numbers  were  printed  in  San  Fran- 
cisco, and  brought  over  to  Alameda  by  Mr.  Hess.  It  was  then 
purchased  by  Mr.  Fred.  K.  Krauth,  its  present  proprietor,  who 
saw  in  it  the  nucleus  of  a  permanent  institution  if  conducted  dis- 
creetly and  economically,  and  who  brought  to  Alameda  press, 
type,  and  all  the  paraphernalia  of  a  printing  office.  His  antici- 
pations have  been  fully  realized.  The  paper  is  now  in  its  fifth 
year,  and  has  a  reputation  throughout  the  State  and  in  the  At- 
lantic States,  of  which  its  proprietor  may  well  feel  proud.  It  is 
eminently  high-toned,  and  admits  into  its  columns  no  matter, 
whether  advertising  or  reading,  that  may  not  be  read  by  any 
man,  woman,  or  child  in  the  land.  This  is  its  j)ride.  As  an 
advertising  medium  for  first-class  family  patronage,  it  has  no 
superior  in  the  State.
