PREFA^CE.
; In presentiiior this, the first edition of tlie Oakland Directoky,
to the public, tlie publisher would ask of the people a generous
allowance for any and all errors which may have escaped his no-
tice in compiling the work.
To carry to a successful tennination a publication of this kind
requires a thorough knowledge of the work to be performed.
Although our experience as an advertising agent and canvasser
extends back a number of years, both in the East as well as on
this coast, which has brought us continually in contact with the
mercantile and nianutacturing community, yet it was with a
degree of caution that we began the compilation of the present
work. In making our canvass, several impediments were pre-
sented to us. Among the most prominent was the difficulty we
experienced in getting competent men to canvass for the names
^ropcr^ and the incorrect manner in which the information was
given at the dwellings. This will, we trust, in a manner explain
away this portion of the errors, as the canvassers claim that the
names are spelled as given to them. Another very great embar-
rassment under which we have labored was the tardiness of our
patrons in furnishing the subject matter for their advertisements.
This last mentioned circumstance has delayed the issue of the
work a number of weeks, besides giving us much additional
trouble and expense, and although we have done all that perse-
verance could accomplish under the circumstances, yet there will
probably be some who will without rclicction feel disposed to
find fault with our apparently inexcusable delay, when at the
same time they may have been themselves in part the cause of
our hindrance by not furnishing their copy in time, and agreea-
ble to their oft-repeated promises. Therefore, this explanation
OAKLAND DIRECTORY
will be our apology and may serve to govern them in the future.
Although in the foregoing we have spoken only of matters
disadvantageous to ourselves, yet we claim that the work pre-
sented possesses more than ordinary merit as regards its syste-
matic classification and arrangement throughout. In this re-
spect we are willing to compare it with any Directory of similar
size that has ever made its appearance on this coast.
The compilation of the statistical matter presented in this
volume has been attended with more difficulties than might be
anticipated. The city ofiicers are in few or no cases required to
present annual or semi-annual reports giving the details of the
business of their oflices, and it was -necessary to examine a mass
of documents to ascertain but few facts. In some cases there
has been a neglect on the part of persons connected with insti-
tutions or business enterprises to furnish us information as re-
quested. The various matters treated of in that portion of the
work which precedes the tables of names, has been under the
supervision of Mr. Wm. D. Harwood.
In conclusion we would tender our thanks to those who have
kindly furnished us with statistics from our Institutions of Leaim^
ing, the Churches, the Municipal Ofiicers, and all other sources
from which we have obtained information, that has assisted us in
compiling the work, and with the knowledge and experience de-
rived from our i^ast labors and with the confidence that our ef-
forts have not been thrown away, we shall very soon commence
the compilation of the second Directory of Oakland for the
year 18Y0, with such alterations, additions and improvements as
present themselves. B. F, STILWELL.

The endowment of tlie University consists of the following
property and funds :
The site of one hundred and sixty acres of land,
valued at $ 80,000
The Seminary and Public Building Funds 100,000
The prospective receipt from Tide Lands 200,000
Other property coming from the College of California,. 40,000
$420,000
Besides this, are the 150,000 acres of Agricultural College Lands,
which if speedily located, and held for a few years, will, it is
believed, readily sell for from five dollars to ten dollars per acre.
An appeal will be soon made to the friends of education and of
California to contribute to the endowment of the Univei'sity, so
that it may be placed at once on a permanent basis of prosperity.
The enterprise is in its infancy as yet, but the Eegents are
managing their trust in an efficient manner, and before the end
of the present year it is expected that temporary arrangements
will be completed in Oakland, and that students will be received
by the professors, who may by that time be appointed.
*The term Honorary applied to these Regents indicates only the mode of their
election, which is made by the Ex-Oflicio and Appointed Regents. Every Regent,
however appointed, is a voting, legislative, and executive member of the Board.

Sec. 57. [This section was amended and altered by " An
Act supplementary to and to amend an Act entitled an Act to
incorporate the City of Oakland, passed March twenty-fifth,
eighteen hundred and fifty-four, and repealing certain other
Acts in relation to said city, approved April twenty-fourth,
eighteen hundred and sixty-two." The section provides for the
adoption of a general plan or system of streets, and for the
opening of streets in accordance therewith, the principal sec-
tion of which Act is as follows : — ]
The City Council shall, when they may deem the same
necessary, establish by ordinance a general plan or plans of
streets, for any and all portions of the city not laid out into
streets ; and after such plan or plans shall have been so estab-
lished, any improvements which may thereafter be made, or
erected, or constructed, within the lines of any street contem-
plated by said plan or plans, shall not be included in any assess-
ment of damages which may be made when the city proceeds to
open said streets. Applications for opening any street or streets
embraced in any plan heretofore adopted, or to be hereafter
adopted, by the City Council, shall be made to the Council by
petition in writing, designating the street or any part thereof
desired to be opened, which said petition shall be signed by the
applicant or applicants, and shall state their places of residence.
If the City Council so resolve, it shall direct the City Marshal
to give written notice to the owners or the occupants of the land
embraced within the lines of said street, or owning or occupying
the lands abutting upon the same, which said notice shall briefly
state the substance of said petition, and shall require such

owners or occupants to appear before sucli Council, at the time
wliioh said Council shall designate by resolution, -which shall not
be less than twenty days from the adoption of such resolution,
and not less than ten days after the service of said notice upon
said owners or occupants, then and there to state any objections
they may have to the opening of said street ; jyrovided^ however,
that whenever the lands embraced within said lines of said
streets, or abutting upon the same, are vacant or unoccupied, or
the owners or occupants thereof cannot be found within the
limits of said city by said Marshal, then, and in that event, it
shall be a sufficient service of said notice upon said owners or
said occupants to post the same in a conspicuous place upon
said vacant or unoccupied lands, and also at the office of the
Mayor of said city, at least ten days prior to the said time lixed
for said appearance.
At the time appointed for said hearing, the parties notified
shall appear and briefly state, in writing, their objections, if any
they have, to the opening of said street or streets ; and if dam-
ages are claimed, shall also therein state the amount thereof; if
damages are claimed, the Council shall designate a day to
determine the same, which shall not be less than ten davs after
the time so appointed to hear said parties as aforesaid. TTpon
such designated day, or such other day to which the hearing of
the same shall l)e continued, the Council shall proceed to hear
the allegations of the parties, and such process as may be pro-
duced in support of or against the same, for which jjurpose the
presiding officer at such meeting of said Council shall have
power to administer all necessary oaths or affirmations, and if
the party to whom the same is administered shall wilfully, cor-
ruptly, and falsely swear touching the matter in issue before said
Council, he shall be deemed guilty of perjury, and upon con-
viction thereof shall be punished by imi)risonnient in the State
Prison for any term not less than one nor more than fourteen
years. Thereupon, said Council shall separately assess the
amount of damages to each person entitled to the same ;

provided^ that if the opening of said street or streets shall bene-
fit the lands abutting upon or adjacent to the same, and increase
the value thereof, such benefit and increase in value shall be es-
timated and deducted from the damages. If, however, after
being notified as aforesaid, said owners or occupants fail to ap-
pear and claim damages as aforesaid, the said Council shall only
award them nominal damages.
Any owner or occupant of land aggrieved by the action of
the Council respecting the amount of damages allowed them,
shall have the right to appeal to the County Court of the County
of Alameda, where said question of damages, and none other,
shall be heard anew and determined. Said appeal shall be taken
by filing a notice with the Clerk of said County Court, and by
serving a copy upon the Mayor of said city, within five days
after said assessment of damages by said Council ; and within
three days after the filing of such notice said aggrieved party
shall cause to be transmitted to the said County Court a copy of
the order or resolution of the Council, assessing said damages,
certified to by the Clerk of the Council, for which copy and cer-
tificate said Clerk shall be entitled to receive a fee of two dol-
lars upon the filing of said certified copy of said order or reso-
lution, in said Count}^ Court, together with an undertaking on
the part of said appellants, in the sum of one hundred dollars,
executed by two good and sufficient sureties, to be approved by
the Mayor of said city, which said undertaking shall be condi-
tioned to the efiect that the said appellants will pay all the costs
of the appeal and all costs that may be recovered against him or
them in said County Court ; jprovided^ 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 the County
Court to be holden on 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 n^>vo^ with or without a jury, as the parties may desire ;
and upon the renc.ition of judgment therein, a certified copy

thereof shall be tninsinltted hy 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 ju<li;ment 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 Com-t than the amount assessed to him by said
Council, together with ten per cent, additional thereto, he shall
l^ay 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 appeal ; j^ro-
vided, that if any claimant of damages shall not give notice of
appeal in the manner and within the time hereinbefore specilied,
then he shall be deemed to have assented to said assessment of
damages by said Council ; and provided^ further, that if any
occupant or owner of such lands shall fail, after being notified
as aforesaid, to appear and claim damages, he shall be deemed
to have waived his right of appeal to said County Court.
The provisions of an Act entitled an Act to regulate
proceedings in civil cases in the Courts of Justice of this State,
and the Acts amendatory thereof and su})plenientary thereto,
shall be applicable, so far as the same are not inconsistent with
this Act. There shall be the same right to appeal from any
such judgment rendered in said County Court, as if the action
had been originally brought therein.
"When the amount of damages shall be finallv ascertained
and determined, the said Council shall order the Marshal to
pay the amount thereof to the parties entitled thereto, and upon
such payment, or the tender thereof, the said Marshall shall
proceed and open said street. All streets that have been laid
out by the authorities of the Town or City of Oakland, and de-
clared to be public thoroughfares or streets, and that have been
used as such, shall be and are hereby declared public streets, to
the extent that the same may have been used ; provided, that
private rights of property shall not be affected thereby.

OAKLAND CITY— PAST AND PRESENT.
On tlie foiirtli day of May, eighteen hundred and lifty-two,
when tlie land upon wliich the present City of Oakland is sit-
uated was under the jurisdiction of Contra Costa County, an
Act incorporating the Town of Oakland was approved by the
Governor of the State, and on that day commenced the corpor-
ate existence of what the present generation is likely to see
developed into the most important city bordering upon the
Pacific Ocean ; the western terminus of the Pacific Railroad,
the greatest work of this or any other age.
j The Act incorporating the Town of Oakland was brief, and
its provisions were few. A Board of Trustees, consisting of five
1 members, was created ; and in this Board was vested power to
'. use the property of the town in whatever way would best pro-
mote its interests. The property then at their disposal was the
extensive water front surrounding the city, which was at the
same time granted to it by the Legislature and owned by the
corporation. The narrative of this property from that day
i until the present time would form one of the most interesting
I chapters in the history of California litigation that could be
written ; but the restricted limits of a Directory forbid anything
more than a faint outline. In this and other matters of the past
we must be brief. Our business is to lay before the public facts
, that are of present interest and importance, rather than amuse,
' and perhaps instruct, by narrating events that have long since
transj)ire(l. There is wanted a comprehensive history of our
I city : its annals are still unrecorded. When impartially written,
58 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
they will constitute a work of tlie greatest local importance and
interest.
Previous to the passage of the first Charter, A. J, Moon,
Edson Adams and Horace W. Carpentier had settled upon the
land now occupied by the city, made a map of the eastern por-
tion, and in accordance with its lines sold lots and blocks, giving
quitclaim deeds, transferring their right, title and interest.
They erected the first buildings, and were in point of fact the
founders of the city. A small population had been attracted
here, sufiicient to require a town government. ;
The Board of Trustees first elected consisted of A. W.
Barrell, A. J, Moon, Edson Adams, A. Marier and A. Staples.
Mr. Marier was elected President of the Board, and A. S.
Hurlbutt was appointed Secretary, May seventeenth, eighteen
hundred and fifty-two, Mr. Barrell introduced a bill or ordi-
nance for the " disposal of the water front belonging to the
Town of Oakland, and to provide for the construction of
wharv^es," which was unanimously passed. The ordinance
granted unto H, W. Carpentier, his heirs and assigns, the use
of the water front for thirty-seven years, with the exclusive
right to erect wharves and docks and collect tolls and wharfage.
In consideration of these privileges, he was to build three
wharves and a school house. By subsequent action the title
was vested in him forever. The deed' to the property, under the
ordinance of May seventeenth, and an agreement bet%veen the
contracting parties, was duly signed and executed. December
thirtieth, what is now termed Broadway wharf was completed,
and an ordinance approving and accepting the work was passed
by a unanimous vote. J uly twelfth, eighteen hundred and fifty-
three, the Board of Trustees received a communication from »
Mr. Carpentier giving ofiicial notice that he had built a " sub-
stantial, elegant and commodious school house," and that a free
school was at the time maintained at his own expense. He
delivered to the Board a conveyance of the house and a deed to
the lot on which it stood, the corner of Fourth and Clay streets.
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 59
Aufijust sixtli, eighteen huiidre<l and iitVy-tliree, the Board
adopted an official seal, and the City Council, at a subsequent
date, adopted the same, sulwtituting the words '* City of Oak-
land " for " Town of Oakland."
August twenty-seventh, Mr. Carpentier notified the Board
that in pursuance of his contract with the city he liad expended
about twenty thousand dollars on wharves, and that he was pre-
pared to make further outlay, but deemed it unnecessary. At
the same time he proposed to abandon the collection of wharf-
age, provided the Board of Trustees would undertake to perpet-
ually keep all the wharves in good order and repair. The
proposition was not accepted by the Board,
At this time there was a demand on the part of many of the
people that the water front property should be recovered from
Cai-pentier by legal process, the action of the Board of Trustees
having been denounced and considered by many to be illegal, if
not dishonest. The popular element Avas not represented until
after the incorporation of the city and the election of the second
Council, under the Charter of eighteen hundred and tifty-four.
The corporate existence of the City of Oakland began
March twenty-fifth, eighteen hundred and fifty-four, at which
date an Act incorj>orating the city was approved by the Gov-
ernor. At the election for corporate ofticers, held innnediately
thereafter, three hundred and sixty-eight votes were cast, and
the following ofticers were elected : Mayor, II. "VV. Carpentier ;
City Marshal, John Iloi^aii ; Citv Clerk, J. B, I)un«^linf'son ;
Assessor, J. S, Tubbs; Councilmen — E. Gallagher, A. D,
Eames, J. Kelsev, Geo. M. Blake, W. C. Josselvn, A. Marier.
This Council had before it the important work of passing the
first ordinances for a city rising in importance and having before
it a future then deemed most bright and promising.
April ninth, eighteen hundred and fifty-four, the first mes-
sage of the Mayor, 11. W. Carpentier, was transmitted to the
Council, and is the most comprehensive document of the kind
recorded in the archives of the citv. After dwell injr at srreat

making many suggestions and recommendations, he glances at
the future of the city, and seems to have correctly divined it, as
can be seen from the following remarkable passage, which we
copy from the minute book for the year eighteen hundred and
fifty-four.
" The attention of capitalists in Eastern cities and of men
connected M'ith the several schemes for the construction of an
Atlantic and Pacific Eailroad is being strongly directed toward
Oakland as the Pacific terminus and depot of the road, and
hydrographic surveys, recently made, prove that the margin of
the basin easterly from Yerba Buena Island, within the limits of
the city, would be admirably adapted to that purpose. AVith
the expenditure of a small sum in removing obstructions from
its harbor, the commercial capabilities and advantages of Oak-
land would equal those of any town in the State. While the
San Antonio Inlet, with its ever-placid waters, running through
the whole extent of the city, would give anchorage to hundreds
of sails of small vessels; the deep waters of the Bay of San
Francisco at its north side aftbrds a safe and commodious harbor
for the largest merchantmen.
" The distance from Oakland to San Jose is less than forty
miles, through a rich valley, the natural grade of which is so
perfect that a railroad might be built in a straight line between
the two places, with scarcely a rod of artificial grading. To
Stockton, the distance by land is little over one-third of the dis-
tance by water. By a pass through the Contra Costa Moun-
tains, a little to the southward, and by another pass in the
Monte Diablo range, in the direct route, a railroad can be easily
constructed between Stockton and this place, which would be-
come the great thoroughfare for travel and the common carrier
of merchandise to the rich vallevs which skirt the Tulare Lake
and to the Southern Mines."
This message was published in a newspaper at that early day,
issued in this city, the " Alameda Express."
The earlier Councils of the city apjjeared to be inspired by
the same feeling that animates the Council of the present time.
OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
CI
They believed that the city was to become one of great import-
ance, and they acted accordingly. A Police Force was or-
ganized, and John Scott was elected Chief Engineer. There
were two Engine Companies, and one Hook and Ladder Com-
p.niy_Empire Fire Company No. 1, Washington Fire Com-
pany No. 2, and Oakland Hook and Ladder Company. The
cisterns still' to be seen on Broadway, between First and Fourth
streets, were then constructed. A Board of School Directors
was organized, consisting of Professor Henry Durant, James
Lentell, and C. T. Jacobus. As these steps were premature, it
was the natural result that the several departments thus organ-
ized had but a Inief existence, and the management of all local
matters speedily returned to the Council, and was retained by
that body until the commencement of our present era of pros-
perity. The Fire Department had but a short-lived existence,
and to the present day Oakland has had no means of resisting
the fiery element. The office of the City Engineer was then
created.
The Council was seriously embarrassed by the defalcation of
the City Marshal, who. absconded, taking with him about
$10,000 belonging to the city. He was pursued, and eventually
captured and brought to punishment. The succeeding Council,
which was radically opposed in sentiment to the one first
elected, more fully felt the trouble attendant upon this act of
official dishonesty.
The Council of 1854 had passed an ordinance granting cer-
tain parties the right to build a wharf upon the water front of
the city, and granting other privileges, which was vetoed by the
Mayor, August 14th, 1854. From this message we take a short
extract, as it is the principal one of the very few written, and
public statements ever made by the individual chiefly interested:
" And in this connection permit me to ask your candid con-
sideration of the fact that the fran(thise of wharfage and the
land proposed to be granted do not belong to the city to grant
or control.
" The land mentioned is a part of the Water Front of Oak-
62 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
land, whicli was ceded by the State to the town in tlie iirst Act
of incorporation, passed May ith, 1852, for the purpose of
enabling the Town to construct wharves and other improve-
ments, for which jHirpose the Act authorised the Trustees to
dispose of the lands so granted.
" At that time the town had not the means of constructing
them. There were but few inhabitants, and but little taxable
property in the city. It became, then, a matter of the first im-
portance and anxiety in the minds of those who wished to see
the young town thrive and prosper, that suitable wharves should
be built, as contemplated by the Legislature, and that common
schools should at once be established. But how were these de-
irable and necessary objects to be accomplished 'i The towns
had received the water front from the State for tlie very purpose,
and for that purpose was it disposed of by the Boartl of Trus-
tees. They sold and conveyed the land, including that men-
tioned in the bill herewith returned to you, to one of her
citizens, under ample guarantees for the faithful performance of
the contract, which he entered into, to construct three wharves
and a school house. And in consideration of a percentage upon
the income of the wharves, and the care and repairs of the
same and in consideration of the premises, the exclusive right
and franchise of wharfage was granted for a term of years
to the contractor, and has passed from him into the hands of
other citizens."
The Water Front controversy was long and bitter, and
almost every legal process seemed to have been exhausted prior
to its final settlement by compromise in 1868. As an indication
of the popular sentiment and the spirit which prompted the
affairs of our city government for many subsequent years, we
present the following extract from a report submitted to a sub-
sequent Council, and adopted, upon a matter separate from the
water front question, in relation with H. W. Carpentier, but
bearing toward it the closest and most direct relationship :
" The ordintmce which it is proposed to repeal was passed
by the Board of Trustees of the To\vn of Oakland on March

fifth, eighteen hundred and fifty-live. It authorizes and directs
the conveyance to E. E. Carpentier, liis lieirt?, agents or assigns,
of exclusive ferry privileges ' between Oakland and San Fran-
cisco, or betAveen the said town or any other place,' for the term
of seventy years, together witli all the ferry rights, privileges
and franchises which now are or hereafter are to be owned by
the Town of Oakland. The ordinance directing the conveyance
to Mr. Carpentier is but one of similar ordinances by which the
Town of Oakland has been unlawfully despoiled of her pro-
perty, divested of her rights, and retarded in her prosperity,
prior to the passage of this ordinance. The Trustees of the
Town of Oakland granted to the l)rother of said Cai-pentier all
the water front of the town, extending to Ship's Channel, in the
Bay of San Francisco, together with the exclusive right of con-
structing wharves and collecting wharfage, (without limit or
restriction), for thirty-seven years. A mere nominal percentage,
without guarantee or security to the town, and amounting in
the course of two or three years to about one hundred dollars,
is the only consideration (with the exception of a small school
house, for which no deed is found) profterred the town for the
aforesaid grants. As trifling as this consideration is, the grantee
in the latter case applied to the Board of Trustees and obtained
the passage of an ordinance by which the town assumed all
taxes which might be levied upon any wharf or wharves which
he had constructed or might construct. This would render the
city liable for the State and county taxes upon sucli wharves,
which, at a moderate estimate, would amount in one year to
more than the aforesaid has amounted to in two years ; thus
compelling the city to pay a premium to the grantees for taking
all the property, ferry rights, privileges and franchises which
the town of Oakland had, present or prospective, to give away.
Under this arrangement, the people of the town are plundered
of their property and their taxes t« pay the taxes of those who
liave ])lundered them, and to support a monopoly which adds iU
exactions to the measure of iniquity and injury thus imposed
upon the community."
64 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
This report was signed by Edward Gibbons and Leonard
Johnson. It expresses the spirit which influenced the Council
from, eighteen hundred and fifty-five, for many years. We do
not propose to revive a discussion of the merits of a controversy
which appears to have been settled for all time. In the two ex-
tracts from official documents which we have copied we present
the most succinct statements of opinions to be found upon our
records. And here we drop the cpestion of the Avater front, to
return to it onlv when it is made the instrument for securing
the location of the terminus of the "Western Pacific Railroad in
Oakland.
Oakland had several times enjoyed temporary periods of un-
usual prosperity, but her career as a city commenced only when
a sure and rapid means of communication had been established
with San Francisco. The advantages of the town, as a place of
residence, had induced various parties engaged in business in
San Francisco to build homesteads in Oakland. The occasional
detention of the ferry boats on the Bar at the mouth of the San
Antonio Creek deterred many from taking up a residence, but
upon the completion of the San Francisco and Oakland Rail-
road, a steady tide of emigration set toward the city, and it has
never diminished, a fact that can be proven by an examination
of the table showing the receipts of the Railroad Company since
January 1866. The introduction of gas and water into the city
marked another era in its progress. To-day, there is not a city
in the State vrith a more promising future. Our growth has
been solid and substantial, and the present condition of the city
is in every way satisfactory.
Until within the past year our city has been considered im-
portant solely on account of the number and rank of the educa-
tional institutions located in or near its corporate limits. She
has been identified with the higher educational interests of the
State since an early day, and the selection of Berkeley as the
site of the State University permanently establishes the position
of the city as the educational centre of the State.
The facilities for buildinsc a vast citv within and near the
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 65
charter limits of Oakland are unsurpassed anywhere in Cali-
fornia, The natural grade is almost perfect, and a complete
system of sewerage can be established at the smallest possible
expense. At an average depth of live feet from the surface of the
ground, there is a thick stratum of sandy cement which aifords
as lirm a foundation for buildings as could possibly be required,
being as solid as a bed of rock. This formation extends to the
■west far out into the Bay, and when the overflowed lands of that
portion of the city are made available, none of the disadvant-
ages will be found, wliich in San Francisco, render it dangerous
to erect heavy brick or stone structures upon the made ground.
The supply of water to be obtained in the mountains, but a few
miles distant, is very great. Artesian wells of a moderate depth
have been sunk in various parts^ of the city, and it is evident
that from the subterraneous springs can be drawn inexhaustible
supplies of pure, wholesome water. Several quarries of su-
perior building stone have been opened but a short dis-
tance from the city. It will never be necessary to go abroad to
obtain what building material we may require. The supply of
clean, sharp stone to be obtained in the vicinity of Oakland is
sufficient for the building of a large city. At no distant day,
railroad communication will place us in close proximity to the
coal mines of Monte Diablo, and the cost of fuel will always be
moderate, depending directly upon the price of labor in obtain-
ing it from the mines.
Oakland is certain to be a city of great prosperity and im-
portance, in spite of any agency under human control which
could ]>e directed against it. The present population has been
drawn here on account'of the pleasantness of its location. The
business of the city has thus far been coniined to supplying the
wants pf its own people, and it is hardly possible that it could
diminish. On account of their own intrinsic excellence, the
number in attendance at our educational institutions is contin-
ually increasing; and as San Francisco increases in wealth and
prosperity, greater numbers of her luisiness men will provide
(5)

for themselves homes in our city. The influence upon our
prosperity which will attend the completion of the Pacifio Rail-
road from one border of the continent to the other can scarcely
be estimated. It will change the whole character of the place,
rapidly multiply its population, create an extensive business,
and give to Oakland the position of a commercial city.
There are now within the charter limits of the city, or in
such close proximity to it as to be virtually a portion of the
town, not a few educational institutions and manufactories.
There are two female seminaries of the highest grade, and one
Roman Catholic Convent. The only college in the State, enti-
tled to the name by law or usage, is in Oakland. There are
two high schools or academies, that have obtained a wide celeb-
rity, and are in advance of all other private institutions in Cali-
fornia, if not in Oregon or on the entire Pacific coast. There
are numerous private schools for young children, which receive
an extensive patronage from abroad. There are two Congrega-
tional Churches, one Presbyterian, one Methodist, one Baptist,
one Episcopal, one Catholic, and one African Church ; and
there are in the city eight church edifices. There are five
public school buildings, two of them being expensive structures,
and ornaments to this or any other city in the State.
We have two grist mills to grind into flour the wheat crop
of the county, and supply to our citizens an article of flour that
has no superior in the State, or anywhere on the continent.
Two costly planing mills find employment in supplying material
for the numerous buildings continually being erected. Two
extensive tanneries and one pottery are in close proximity
to the city. Cotton and woollen fabrics are manufactured at
our very doors.
For the length of about six miles, our streets are beautifully
paved. An equal length of gas and water pipes is laid through
them. Over one thousand feet of the frontage on the San
Antonio Creek is occupied with wharves, and the wants of the
city are supplied by means of three steamboats and numerous
small sailing vessels. The extensive and valuable improvements
I
OAKLAN.D DIRECTORY. 67
now erected in tlie city are required by the present population-
Within tlie past year, tliere lias been erected a Baptist
Church edifice, at a cost of about twenty tliousand dollars.
Repairs and additions have been made to the First Ct)n<;rega-
tional Church building, to the value of $6,000 ; and a Congre-
gational Church has been erected at the Point, which has cost
very nearly the same sum. One block of two-story buildings,
having a frontage of two hundred feet on our principal business
street, has been erected, at a probable cost of fifty thousand dol-
lars ; and a three-story building has been erected, at .a cost of
about one-half this amount. Public school improvements to
the value of about thirteen tliousand dollars have been made ;
and a public library, to take rank among the highest, has been
founded by the wealthy and public spirited citizens of Oakland.
Proper steps have been taken to secure the site for a magnificent
public park, and the erection of a magnificent city hall has
been commenced. On every street and in every quarter of the
city are numerous new dwelling houses, many of them elegant
and costly. Two daily newspapers, conducted with ability and
success, do credit to the city.
The growth of Oakland, up to the present point, has been
natural, and her prosperity is on a firm and substantial basis.
As yet, the principal part of her citizens are engaged in various
business pursuits in the city of San Francisco ; but there are
most convincing reasons for the belief that in the immediate
futm'e an entirely changed order of aft'airs will exist.
FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE CITY.
Through the mismanagement of the Town Council in 1852
and 1853, and of the first City Council, it become necessary to
fund the debt of the city. At the commencement of the year
1868, this funded debt amounted to $18,400, and was the only
debt owed by the city. The Legislature of 1867-8 passed
68
OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
numerous special Acts, under Avliicli the Council could issue, for
various specified purposes, bonds to the total amount of
$133,000, as follows :
City Hall Bonds S 50,000
School Bonds 50,000
Carpentier Judgment Bonds 18.000
Oakland Bar Bonds 15^000
8133,000
On December 1st, 1868, the date at which this review was
prepared, the amount of bonds actually issued was as follows :
City Hall Bonds $20,000
Carpentier Judgment Bonds 16,000
School Bonds 23,500
Bonded Debt incurred between 1852 and 1855 18,400
Total Funded Debt $77,900
As the City Hall building is progressing rapidly, the re-
maining $30,000 of City Hall bonds will soon be issued, and
the actual funded debt may be set down at $107,900.
City Hall Bonds. — The City Hall and other bonds of the
city have, up to December 1st, found a ready market, either at
par or a small premium, being regarded as fij-st class securities.
By an Act of the Legislature, approved March 19th, 1868,
the City Council is authorized to issue bonds to an amount not
to exceed $50,000, payable at any time within fifteen years, for
the purchase of land and the erection ot a City Hall. The
bonds are to be sold to the highest bidder, after advertisement,
or at par at any time, the proceeds being placed to the credit of
the Building Fund, to be expended under the direction of the
Council for the purchase of a suitable site for a City Hall and
the erection of such building. If such bonds cannot be sold for
ninety cents on the dollar, in gold, the Council are authorized
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 69
to levy an annual tax of fifty cents on each one hundred dollars
of assessed i^roperty, for the purposes mentioned. After any of
the bonds have been sold, and until all have been redeemed, the
Council are required to levy an annual tax sufficient to pay the
interest that may each year accrue. If tliere should be no
money to the credit of the Interest Fund, the Council is
required to transfer an amount from any other fund, except the
School Fund, for the purpose of paying whatever interest may
be due upon the bonds issued. The Council may also levy an
annual tax, not to exceed ten cents on each one hundred dollars,
for the purpose of redeeming bonds. In the year 1880 the
Council is required to levy a tax sufficient to redeem one-lialf
the bonds then outstanding ; and in the year 1882 they shall
levy a tax sufficient for the redemption of the remainder.
School Bands. — By an Act of the Legislature, approved
March 13th, 1868, the City Council was authorized to issue and
sell bonds to an amount not exceeding $50f<>00, payable at any
time within ten years, to bear interest at a rate not to exceed
ten per cent, per annum, payable on the second day of January
of each year. The bonds are to be in sums of not less than $100
or more than $500 each, and must have coupons attached,
signed by the Mayor and City Treasurer. The bonds can be
sold by the Council at any meeting at par ; otherwise, sealed
proposals must be advertised for ; but no bonds shall be sold for
less than ninety cents, in gold, upon the par value. The pro-
ceeds of the sale of these bonds are to be paid into the City
Treasury and placed to the credit of the School Fund. Such
money shall be used for the sole purpose of procuring land and
erecting school houses; but no portion shall be expended %vith-
out the consent of four members of the Council and four mem-
bers of the Board of Education. After any of these bonds are
sold, and until all bonds sold under this Act are redeemed, the
Council is required to levy a tax upon city property sufficient to
pay the interes* upon the outstanding bonds. Any surplus
money shall ])e applied to the redemption of bonds. Tlie Coun-

cil may, each year, until 1878, levy a tax, not to exceed ten cents
on each one hundred dollars of assessed property, for the
redemption of bonds; and whenever the amount so raised shall
be one thousand dollars or more, it shall be applied to that pur-
pose. In the year 1875 the Council is required to levy a tax
suthcient to redeem one-half the bonds then outstanding ; and
in 1877 they shall levy a tax sufficient to redeem the remainder
of the bonds that may be issued under this Act.
Pursuant to the provisions of this Act, bonds to the amount
of $23,500 have been issued. Of this amount, $10,000 were
required for the payment for Lafayette Grammar School build-
ing and the Point School house, debts contracted by the City
Council prior to the passage of the Act.
Judgment Bonds. — An Act supplemental to the City Hall
Act, approved March 28th, 1868, empowers the City Council to
issue bonds to an anfount not exceeding $18,000, to be applied
to the payment of any iinal judgment existing against the city.
The bonds are similar in all respects to those issued under the
City Hall Bond Act. Tinder this Act, bonds to the amount of
$16,000 have been issued to E. R. Carpentier, in satisfaction for
a final judgment against the city, held by him.
Ookland Bar Bonds. — By an Act approved March 28th,
1868, the Council are authorized to issue bonds to the amount
of $15,000, the proceeds to be applied toward removing obstruc-
tions at the mouth of the San Antonio Creek, so as to render
the same navigable. These bonds are to be similar in all re-
spects to those issued under the City Hall Bond Act. The
Council are, in addition, authorized to raise anually, by direct
taxation, a sum not to exceed $5,000, to be applied to the same
purpose. No definite action has been taken by the Council up
to the date of this writing, to avail itself of the privileges per-
mitted by this Act, no bonds having been issued, and no legis-
lation having this end in view having been commenced.

It will be seen from the above that the expenses of the city
have rapidly increased, and that its receipts have increased in
an apparently greater ratio. In reality, the receipts have not in-
creased as rapidly as the expenses, the apparent increase being
due to the sale of the bonds. The actual amount of money in
the Treasurv, December 5th, including the total tax collected
for the fiscal year 1868-9, was $7,233 61, and the total liabili-
ties amounted to $11,824 89, showing a large deficiency, and
demonstrating the necessity of borrowing at least $10,000, the

fullest amount permitted by the charter, to meet current ex-
penses. The receipts for municipal licenses issued during the
lirst two months of the last quarter of the year 1868, amounted
to $1,720 25, whicli may be taken as the average quarterly
amount, licenses being payable in advance.
The gas bill for the- month of October was 834:6 57^. There
were in use at the expiration of that month sixty street lamps,
and under the present contract 22^ cents per lamp is paid for
each night, and the price will so remain until the number of
lamps exceeds 250, when the price will be 20 cents.
The monthly amount of the salaries paid to the city Super-
intendent, Secretary of the Board of Education, and the
Teachers in the employ of the School Department is $1,133 33,,
and there being ten school months in the year, the annual
amoimt, upon the present scale, would consequently be
$11,333 30. Under the new rules of the Board of Education,
teachers are to be paid twelve months during the year, but the
total annual amount so paid will be the same as formerly. The
revenue of the School Dejjartment consists in thirty per cent of
the city taxes, thirty-five cents on each one hundred dollars of
assessed valuation from the State and county taxes. The
School Department has lived within its means, and while most
of the city ofiicials will be obliged to wait for their salaries
for a long period, perhaps for a whole year, the Public School
Teachers will be able to receive their salaries as quickly as they
become due.
The rate of the city taxation, for all purposes, is one per cent,
on the assessed value of the property within the limits of the
city. The total valuation for the last fiscal year was $3,364,078
and the tax, $33,360 78. Of this tax, $27,957 83 were col-
lected, leaving a delinquency of $5,682 95. By ordinance, the
monies received were apportioned to the several funds in the
following ratio :

THE EDWARD K. CARPENTIER SUITS.
On August ITtli, 1S6S, the City Council adopted a final reso-
lution authorizing the City Clerk to issue to Edward R. Carpen-
tier bonds to the amount of $16,000, in satisfaction for the
judgment held by him against the City of Oakland. Thus ter-
minated a series of law suits which had been maintained for
fourteen years, the city paying the full amount demanded by
Mr. Carpentier and allowed by the Twelfth District Court.
February 11th, 1854, the Board of Trustees of the then Town
of Oakland employed E. R. Carpentier to defend certain injunc-
tion suits brought by John C. Hays and others against John
Ilogan, Town Marshal, to restrain the collection of to"sra taxes,
at a price not to exceed $1,000. The service Avas rendered, and
a warrant for the payment of the stipulated price was issued.
Other legal services were performed, and other claims accrued ;
and claims being made which were deemed unjust and un-
founded, the payment was resisted, and litigation has continued
from 1854 imtil 1868, when in the Twelfth District Court judg-
ment was rendered for $15,225 88, debt and damages, and costs,
and disbursements, and percentage allowed by law ; the amount
of the judgment to bear interest at the rate of ten per cent, per
annum. When by order of the Council the bonds were issued,
the debt amounted to $16,000, which sum was received in full
payment of the judgment.

The Public Schools of Oakland are in a condition that is most
satifactory to the people and creditable to the city. We have
five school houses, containing sixteen class-rooms. Twelve
teachers are in the employ of the Department, eleven of the
number being females. Lafavette Grammar School contains
four class-rooms, in which studies of the Grammar School grade
are taught. The eight remaining classes are of the^ primary
grades.
In 1866, the Board of Education was first created by Act of
the Legislature, and given full control of the City School Fund.
Under this Act the powers of the Board were quite restricted,
and in March, 1860, the Legislature passed another law, under
which the present Board was elected, and is now acting. This
Act provides that the Board shall consist of seven Directors ;
three and four to be elected each alternate year, and one Di-
rector to be chosen from each Ward of the city, whenever such
Wards are established, if they do not exceed seven in number.
The Board has the sole power to establish and maintain Public
Schools in Oakland ; employ and dismiss teachers ; provide
suitable rules and regulations for the government of the schools ;
procure supplies ; build, alter, repair, and rent school buildings ;
purchase and sell land for school purposes, with the concurrent
vote of the Council ; maintain actions at law ; determine the
amount of school tax to be levied by the Council. The Board
has exclusive control of the School Fund, and has ample power
to carry into eftect all the provisions of the Act.
No teacher can be employed in the School Department who
does not bear a certificate issued by the City Board of Examina-
tion, and the Board of Education can determine upon what
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. T5
qualifications shall be possessed bj teachers in its employ.
A City Superintendent of Schools is chosen at each charter
election. • He is the executive officer, and upon him falls the
task of havint: the immediate care of the schools. The Act is
elaborate in its details, and if the workings of the Department
should be unsatisfactory it will not be on account of the insuf-
■ficiency of the law creating it.
Witli the concurrent vote of the City Council, the Board of
Education can use the proceeds of the sale of bonds to the value
of $50,000, for building purposes. The outlines of the Act
authorizing the issuance of such bonds can be found elsewhere.
Prior to the passage of the Act, there was a school debt of
$10,000, incurred in the erection of Lafayette Grammar School
Building, and in making various school improvements. This
amount was paid by an issue of bonds. For improvements
made during the present year, bonds to the amount of $13,500
have been issued.
The salaries have been fixed as follows :
Grammar Masters $175 per month.
Principals 100 "
Assistants T5 "
There are ten school months in the vear, under the former
rules of the Board. Under newly adopted rules, the teachers
are paid for twelve months, but the monthly amount is so re-
duced as to keep the annual pay the same
The number of children as ascertained bv School Census
Marshals, for the past six years, is as follows :
School Census of 1803 811
School Census of 1804 1,043
School Census of 1805 1,253
School Census of 1800 1,282
School Census of 1867 1,532
School Census of 1868 •. 1,735
'i^ OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
The census for some of the years mentioned above shows the
total number of children under twenty-one years of age, while
at other times it shows the number under eighteen years of age ;
and the census for the last year gives the number under fifteen
years of age. A strictly accurate idea of the increase of popu-
lation cannot, therefore, be derived from these figures.
During the year 1863, the average daily attendance at the
Public School was 115. From July, 1866, to July 1867, the
averao;e dailv attendance is estimated at 311. The estimated
average daily attendance from August, 1867, to June, 1868, is
461. At the present time the number of school children for
which Oakland is entitled to draw State and County moneys is
1,038.
The school improvements made during the past year are
extensive. At the Oakland Point, an eight-room school house has
been erected, at a cost of $8,000. The four rooms upon the
lower floor only are finished, and will be used for both graminar
and primary classes. School house No. 1, has been so altered
as to contain three rooms instead of two, as formerlv, and a
wing containing one room has been added to School-house No.
2. Other improvements are in contemplation.
The school houses are furnished neatly, though not expen-
sively, and each building is provided with a parlor-organ, except
Lafayette Grammar School, for which a piano has been pro-
cured. The studies pursued are similar to those in the San
Francisco Schools, and the pupils in our Grammar School are
carried through precisely the same course of study as the youth
of that city.
The Lafayette Grammar School is located on the block north
of the Public Square of that name, and is under the control of
J. B, McChesney, the Grammar Master, The Assistants are
Mary Lichten thaler, Fanny E. Willis, and H. E. Jackson. The
attendance during the past term has been on the average two
hundred scholars.
Primary No. 1, is located on the same block with Lafavette
Grammar School. Mrs. M. AV, Phelps is Principal, and Eliza
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 77
P. Brown and M. E. Ludwig are Assistants. The attendance
at this School averages about 150 scholars.
Primary No. 2, is located on the corner of Alice and Fifth
streets, fronting on Fifth street, and opposite to Harrison
Square. The Principal is Mary Alexander ; the Assistants are
Lizzie Betanure and Emily E, Jayne. There have been in or-
dinary attendance at this School, during the past term, about
1 30 scholai-s.
The new school building at the Point has not been occupied.
A one-story two room building has for a considerable period
been in use. Miss Annie E. Lewis is Principal, and Susie A.
Mowry, Assistant. The attendance has fluctuated greatly, the
averasre beinjj about one hundred. The new buildino^ is to be
occupied from the beginning of the present year, and a Grammar
School Class is to be started.
The financial management of the Board of Education has
been prudent, and the School Department does not find itself in
that embarrassed condition into which the other departments of
our city government have been thrown.
STREETS AND STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
Ever since the incorporation of the city, the streets in the
southeastern portion, included between Market and Fourteenth
streets and the Creek, liave been legally established, and with
but a few exceptions, open for public travel. These streets are
eighty feet in widtli, with the exception of Broadway, which is
110 feet wide. The blocks are 200x300 feet in size. By or-
dinances of the City Council, the width of sidewalks has been
estal)lished at fourteen feet, except on Broadway, where the
sidewalks are twenty feet wide. West of Market street they
are to be eighteen feet wide.
By an Act of the Legishiture, approved April 25th, 1863, the
city charter was so amended as to authorize the City Council to
adopt a general plan or system of streets, for that portion of the
city not included between Market and Fourteenth streets.
78 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
After the establishmejit of such general plan or system, im-
provements erected upon the line of a proposed street cannot be
included in any assessment for damages. November 16th, 1868,
the Council passed an ordinance, adopting a general system of
streets, and the map showing the chosen plan is prefaced to this
work, which renders unnecessary any description, the map being
its own best explanation. Applications for opening any of these
streets must be made to the Council in writing, designating the
particular street to be opened, and the residences of the appli-
cants. If the Council should determine that the street should
be opened, the Marshal shall be directed to notify the owners or
occupants of the land embraced within the lines of such street,
to appear before the Council at a given time, and state any ob-
jections they may have to the opening of the street. After their
appearance, and the announcement of their claims for damag-
ino- if any there be, the Council shall fix a time for assessing
damages. For this purpose, the Council has very nearly the
same power as a Court ; can compel the attendance of witnesses,
administer oaths, etc. Parties who feel themselves aggrieved by
the action of the Council can appeal to the County Court, The
Council has no authority under any existing law to pay dam-
ao-es from the City Treasury. If the property holders petition-
in o- for the opening of a sLreet, should raise an amount sufficient
to pay the final damages awarded, the opening of a street can
be enforced, not otherwise.
Street improvements are ordered and made in pursuance of
an Act, approved April 4th, 1864. The Act is long, elaborate,
and complete. The Council is authorized to order the improve-
ment of any street, lane or alley within the limits of the city.
Property holders file with tlie Council a petition designating
the improvement desired. Should the Council see fit, they pass
a resolution declaring their intention to order the work peti-
tioned for, which resolution must be published for the period of
ten days. Prior to the expiration of that time, the owners of
more than one-half the frontage upon the street proposed to be
improved, may file their protest with the City Clerk, and such
OAKLAND DIEECTORY,
79
protest is a bur to all further proceedings tor the i)criod of six
months. Should no such protest be tiled, the Council adver-
tises for bids for doing the work, in accordance with such speci-
fications as they may adopt, and the contraet must be awarded
to the lowest responsible bidder. Notice of the award must
be published for the period of five days. "Within this period,
the owners of property fronting upon the street to be improved
ma3% by agreement among themselves, do the work ordered,
which must be at the price charged by the lowest bidder.
AVhen a contract has been completed to the satisfaction of the
City Engineer and the City Marshal, a warrant is issued to the
contractor, authorizing him to collect from the property holders
the amounts due from them for their proportion of the improve-
ments.
An official grade has been adopted for the portion of the city
within Market and Fourteenth streets, and for several streets in
the western part of the city. According to this grade, most of
the blocks are to be above the level of the streets, and there is
to be but a small amount of filling in. The official grade was
adopted by the Council, by ordinance, December 21st, 1867.
The almost perfect natural grade of Oakland has rendered
the improvement of her streets a matter easy of accomplish-
ment. There are no sand hills to be dug away, and no rocky
cliffs to be undermined and removed. The only method as yet
adopted for making the streets more convenient for horses and
vehicles is that of macadamizing them. At a distance of five
miles from the city are inexhaustible quantities of rock suitable
for the i)urpose. After being exposed to the winter rains and
becoming packed and firm, it in many cases equals a pavement
of asphaltuMi. If pro}>er care were to be taken to keep the
macadamized streets in a state of cleanliness and repair, they
would not be inferior to the cobble stone pavements of most
American cities. The first experiment in inipruving the streets
of Oakland was in macadamizing the section of Broadway be-
tween Fourth and Tenth streets, the contract for this work
being let December 2d, 1804. The 'price jter square foot then

charged was eight and one-half cents. Since that time prices
have fluctuated between four and one-half cents per square foot
and six and one-half cents. The streets are being improved
very rapidly, and the table which we present below will be in-
complete shortly after the appearance of this Directory, street
contracts being awarded almost weekly. "We present the fol-
lowing list, showing the streets macadamized, their length, and
cost :

Although the figures thus presented appear large, there can
be no question but that the value of property has been in-
creased by street improvements far beyond the amount ex-
pended in creating them. Whenever a railway or tramroad
may be constructed to the foot hills, the cost of street improve-
ments should be materially diminished. Except upon Broad-
way, too little attention has been given to making convenient
and substantial sidewalks. These are scarcely less important
than the streets themselves ; and it is to be hoped that in future
improvements this fact will" be properh- recognized.

THE OAKLAND WATER FKOXT AXD THE WESTEKN I'ACIFIC KAIL-
EOAD TEKMIXL'S.
The Oakland Water Front promises to he the great cause for
the future commercial pros})erity of our city. Its importance
Avas foreseen tifteen years ago, and the person who then ob-
tained possession of it has clung to it with pertinacity, defended
his title in every Court, and linally ended litigation only by

compromise. In tlie summer of tlie year ISfiT, the City Council
took steps toward viironuisly prosecutiuii; the suits l>etween II.
W. Carpentier and tlie City, tor the possession of the Water
Front property. John B. Felton was chosen as special counsel
on our behalf, with a contingent fee of fifteen per cent of the
property he inight save to the city. He entered upon his task
promptly and with energy. The A\^estern Pacific Eailroad
Comjiany had not then located its extreme western terminus,
and each town bordering upon the Bay of San Francisco ex-
pected the coveted prize. Various were the inducements offered,
and innumeral)le were the schemes devised for influencing the
choice of the Company. The members of the City Council and
their Attorney, felt that Oakland had one offering which would
turn the scale in her favor, if it could but be made available.
The entire water water front had been conveyed to the city, and
the validity of the conveyance of the proi)erty by the city to
one of its iidiabitants was the only matter at issue. If i)ersistent
litigation .should be continued, the golden opportunities would
pass unimproved. A compromise was talked of If the Wes-
tern Pacific Pailroad Company could be granted a large portion
of the property, it would Avitliuut doubt locate its terminus in
this city, for there were numerous advantages tluit could not be
disregarded, if a clear title could be given to the land upon
which its improvements would be erected. Having the indorse-
ment of the people, tlie City Council nuide ai.plication to the
Legislature, and in due time a short Act was passed em])ower-
ing the Council to settle the controversies of the city as it might
deem best. Mr. Carpentier and the members (.f the City Coun-
cil then agreed upon the terms of a comj^romise, which were
briefly to the effect that Mr. Carpentier Avould sun-ender his
title to one-half the property, provided the city would convey
the remaining half to the liailroad Comi)any, tbr terminal pur-
poses. Upon this i)rinciple the terms of a compromise were
elaborated and ]nit into a tangible form. The proper negotia-
tions were had with the managing officers of the Pwailroad
Company, and satisfactory assurances were obtained.
86 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
On the evening of April 1st, 1868, the City Council passed
the following ordinance, which is in a measure self-explanatory :
An Ordinance for the Settlement of Controversies and Disputes
Concerning) the Water JFront of the Ciiij of OaJdand, the
FroMchisGS thereof and other matters pertaining thereto :
The Council of the City of Oakland do ordain as follows :

Attest : 11. HiLLEBRAND, C'd]j Clerk.
In accordance with tlie terms of the compromise, as provided
by Mr. Carpentier, the following deed had been executed :
" This Indenture, made the 31st day of March, 1808, between
Horace W. Carpentier, party of the first part, and the Oakland
Water Front Company, party of the second part, witnesseth,
tliat the said party of the first, in consideration of the sum of
five dollars, to him paid by the said party of the 'second part,
the receipt whereof is hereby acknowled(2;ed, hereby gives,
grants, sells and conveys to the said party of the second part,
its successors and assigns, the following descriljed premises, to
wit : all of the Water Front of the City of Oakland, that is to
say, all the lands, and the lands covered with Avater, lying within
the limits of said city, between high tide and ship channel, be-
ing the water front lands within the boundaries described and
granted in, and defined by the Act entitled. An Act to incor-
porate the Town of Oakland, and to provide for the construc-

tolls, wharfage and dockage thereon and therefrom, and all
lands, rights, privileges and franchises of every kind and nature,
which have been heretofore acquired by the party of the first
part from the Town of Oakland and the City of Oakland, or
either of them, and all rights to the above mentioned land,
franchises and privileges which he may hereafter acquire from
the said City of Oakland, excepting therefrom, liowever, so
much of the said water front as lies between the middle of
Washington street and the middle of Franklin street, and ex-
tending southerly to a line parallel to front street, and two hun-
dred feet southerly from the present wharf, according to the
map of the City of Oakland, with the rights of wharfage, dock-
age and tolls thereon, to have and to hold the aforesaid and
aforegranted j^remises, to the said party of the second part, its
successors and assigns, to their use and behoof forever.
" In witness whereof, the said party of the first part has here-
unto set his hand and seal the day and year aforesaid.
* " II. W. CAEPEXTIER."
The portion of the water front reserved was to be deeded to
the city for the public use, and was a concession which had been
demanded and insisted upon as essential, to prevent the success
of a complete monopoly of ferry privileges. Unfortunately the
Council had previously granted the use of this identical prop-
erty to the San Francisco and Oakland Railroad Company, but
the privilege had never been made available, and the ordinance
was deemed to be in violation of tlie citv charter, and conse-
quently of no force or effect. As quickly as a compromise had
been agreed upon, the Company endeavored to take possession
of this land, and legal proceedings were forthwith undertaken,
which, up to the present time, do not appear to be near a ter-
mination.
The Water Front Company is essentially a brancli of the
Western Pacific Railroad Company. It was incorporated in
April, 1808. The capital stock of the Company is §5,000,000,
divided into $50,000 shares. The Trustees are — E. R. Carpen-

tier, Lloyd Tevis, II. AV. Carpentier, John B, Felton, Leland
Stanford, and Samuel Mcrritt. The Officers of the Company
arc : President, 11. W. Carpentier ; Yice-President, Samuel
Merritt : Secretary, Lloyd Tevis ; Treasurer, Leland Stanford.
•
The oltjects for which the Company is formed are stated in
the certificate of incorporation, to be, to " build, construct, ac-
quire, own, hold, manage, use and control wharves, docks,
basins, dry docks, piers and warehouses, in the City of Oakland,
and State of California, or elsewhere, and to lease, or sell, con-
vey, or otherwise dispose of the same ; to borrow and lend
money : to eni^ajje and carry on the business of commerce,
foreii^n and domestic ; to purchase, acquire, manage, hold, con-
trol, hy})othecate, mortgage, encumber, lease, sell, convey, or
otherwise dispose of the AVater Front of said city, and any tide,
Kubmerired and overflowed or other lands in the Citv of Oakland
or elsewhere, t«;)gether with the rights, privileges and franchises
connected therewith or appurtenant thereto ; and also, an}'
other property, real, personal or mixed, clioses in action, rights,
privileges and franchises."
The contract referred to above as existing between the " Oak-
land Water Front Company, the Western Pacific Pailroad Com-
pany, and other parties," was entered into April 1st, 1868, by
the following named parties : The "Western Pacific Ilailroad, by
its officers, as first party ; Leland Stanford, as second party, and
the Oakland Water Front Company, as third party ; and speci-
fies that the first party agrees to construct and complete a railroad
connecti<»n with the Central line, to terminate upon certain
lands to be selected from the Water Front Company's property ;
also to erect buildings and structures for passenger and freight
depots, and to expend within a specified time, upon said lands,
at least $5UO,00(>, gold coin, not including the i)urchase of any
existing improvements.
Tlie contract is not a matter of public record, otherwise it
would in this connection l»c published.
92 OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
The water front property lias been carefully surveyed, under
the supervision of Calvin Brown, and a most complete and
elaborate map has been prepared. The railroad reservation an-
nounced is shown upon the map accompanying this volume.
The intention of the Water Front Company and of the Western
Pacific Railroad Company, at the date of this M-ritinc;, is not
fully announced. Work upon the portion of the road between
this city and Stockton, hj way of Livermore Pass, is progress-
ing with rapidity, and work is to be commenced in this city
almost immediately. It is, indeed, probal)le that when this
meets the eye of the reader, hundreds of laborers will be at
work in Oakland and its immediate vicinity, npon tlie improve-
ments projected by the Water Front Company and the Western
Pacific Railroad Company,
REAL ESTATE GROWTH OF THE CITY.
During the past two years the value of Oakland real estate
has increased fully 200 per cent., and is now steadily and
rapidly advancing. It is in exceptional cases only that property
commands a high price on account of its prospective value.
Within the limits of the city, the value of property is founded
upon the extent of the income that might be derived from it, if
improved. There has been inflation in regard to outside lands,
which have in numerous cases been sold at prices far in excess of
their intrinsic value. Such transactions have not been numer-
ous, but they have in a measure injured the legitimate operators
in real estate. Mr. E. C. Sessions, one of the leading real estate
dealers and owners in Oakland, commenced the publication of
The Real Estate Gazette^ November Ttli, 186S. The initial
number contained a table showing real estate transactions in
Oakland, Brooklyn and Alameda Townships for the two years
ending November 1st, 1868. This being the transition period,
during which Oakland changed from the condition of a quiet
village to that of a promising city, we deem it proper to re-
reproduce that table, and thus preserve it in a more permanent
form :

The same authority, commenting upon the above tabular re-
view, states that " Xo reference lias been had to Broadway
property. It is rarely offered for sale, and but few transfers
have been made during the last year, most of these including
improvements, rendering it diflTicult in many cases to arrive at
an accurate valuation of the land. We consider $175 to $200
per front foot a fair quotation for ])roperty on the west side of
Broadway, between Fourteenth street and the railroad. Upon
the east side, within same limits, $150 ; below the railroad, $100
to $150 per front foot. Sales can be readily effected at these
fio;ures.
" From reference to the above review, several things are ap-
parent. First, an advance in the value of property in Oakland
and vicinity 6f nearly 200 per cent, in two years. Second, the
improvements alaeady made, as well as the regularity of tJiis
advance, are evidence of its legitimacy. Sales made within the
last month, and those l>eing daily consummated, with the as-
surance we now have of other and extensive improvements to
be made in the spring, warrant a reasonable exj)ectation of fur-
ther advance."

In the year 1858, the total vote of Oakland Township was
406 ; at the late Presidential election it was 1,273.
The growth of the city has been to the north, but the greater
part of the improvements have been made on the portion
originally covered by oaks, the light, sandy soil being pleasanter
for the ordinary purposes of a dwelling place, and by many
being deemed healthier.

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS.
For years past, the educational institutions located in this
city have occupied a leading position in California, and have
been attended by students from all parts of the Pacific Coast,
Mexico, and the Sandwich Islands. We append a few of the
leading facts concerning each.
THE COLLEGE SCHOOL, COLLEGE OF CALIFORNIA, AND UNIVEKSITY
OF CALIFORNIA.
These three institutions are mentioned in connection with
each other, because the College of California grew from the
College School, and the State University is the full develop-
ment of the College of California. Each institution marks an
era in the progress of the cause of education in the State.
A correspondence was commenced among some of those who
subsequently became Trustees, on the possibility of founding a
college in California, as early as the year 1849. Plans were
laid at that time, but there was very little progress until the
spring of 1853. At that time the Rev. Henry Durant arrived,
and a plan for opening a College School was matured at a meet-
ing of the Presbytery of San Francisco and Congregational As-
sociation of California. A building which stood on the north-
east corner of Broadway and Fifth streets was rented, and
school was opened by Mr. Durant. At first the school was ex-
ceedingly small, and for several years its growth was slow.
I
OAKLAND DIRECTORY, 99
Among tlie half-dozen scholars in attendance was the writer of
these pages. Funds were raised by subscription, and the four
squares now occupied by the College and College School were
purchased. At this early day, tlie services rendered by the Rev.
S. B. Bell, the Pastor of the Presbyterian Church, were of in-
calculable importanc, and but for him Mr. Durant would have
been unable to have continued in -the enterprise upon which he
had embarked.
The College of California was incorporated in April, 1855.
The Trustees entered upon their work with much energy, and
frequently gave from their private funds for the support of the
institution. In 1856, the Pev. Horace Bushnell was elected
President. While having the matter under consideration, he
gave a large portion of his time to a careful examination of the
country around the Bay of San Francisco, and the site finally
chosen was in accordance with his preference. It may, there-
fore, be stated that the site for the University building, at
Berkeley, is the best that can be found anywhere in close prox-
imity to San Francisco, for the opinion of such a man as Dr.
Bushnell is of more value than that of any number of com-
missioners acting under the authority of a legislature, and ex-
posed to the numberless improper influences which would beset
them.
The first Freshman Class was admitted in the summer of
1800. A small college building was erected, and a college
faculty had been chosen. To meet the increased expenses re-
newed exertions had been made and sufficient funds were ob-
tained. In March, 1862, the Rev. S. II. Willey was elected Vice-
President of the College. A larger building was erected, and a
fund was raised for the endowment of the Presidency. Efforts
were made to secure the services of some suitable person from
the East, to act as President, but without success, and until the
present time, Mr. Willey, as Vice-President, has administered
the affairs of the Collecre.
The first class admitted graduated in June, 1864, and classes
liave graduated in course every year since.

OAKLAND DIRECTORY.
In 1865, the College Faculty invited a general meeting of the
College Alumni in the State, to be held in connection with the
commencement occasion of that year. In response to the in-
vitation, there was a large attendance on the part of the clas-
sically educated men of the State, and the meeting was so agi"ee-
able, and so abounded in literary festivities, tliat a permanent
association, the Associated Alumni of the Pacific Coast, was
organized. The Alumni have since held their annual meetings
with regularity, and have become exceedingly popular.
The College Faculty is composed as follows :
Yice-President (Acting President,)
Rev. S. H. Willey.
Professor of Mental and Moral Science, and Greek,
IIev. IIenky D leant.
Professor of Latin,
Kev. Martin Kellogg.
Professor of Natural Sciences,
WiLLAKD B. KiSLXG.
Professor of Belles Letters,
Pev. I. H. Brayton.
Tutor in German and Mathematics,
Henry Hillebrand.
Tutor in French,
Chas. L. Des Pochers.
The next commencement of the College will probably be the
last, as at that tims the Rage its of the University will be ready
to assume charge of it, and incorporate it into a department of
the University, as provided by law. The College Trustees, in
1867, voted unanimously, that if the State would undertake the
establishment of a University of the first rank, the College of
California would turn over its assets to the newly created Uni-
versity, and surrender its corporate existence if a department of
Letters should be created. The influence of the Trustees and of
their friends secured the passage by the Legislature, of an Act
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 101
to create and organize the University of California. Tlie mis-
sion of tlie College is accomplished, a University which will
be complete in all its departments, havingbeen established.
THE COLLEGE SCHOOL.
As Stated above, the Rev. Henry Durant was Principal of
the College School from 1853 to 1860. From 1860 until the
present time, the Rev. I. II. Brayton has been Principal of the
School, having ;for eight years enjoyed the assistance of F. M.
Campbell, M. A., in conducting the School, and having been as-
sisted during the last year by the Rev. E. G. Beckwith.
In 1865, the Trustees of the College . ceased to retain pro-
prietary control of the College School, though continuing to ex-
ercise supervisory oversight, and stipulating that the original
purposes in its establishment should be adhered to.
The Institution employs fifteen Professors and Teachers, and
has an attendance of about 250 pupils. It is acknowledged the
largest Institution of its class upon this coast. Its extensive,
improved grounds, and numerous, large and fine Iniildings, Avill
amplj' repay a visit.
As the founders of the College School had in mind the lead-
ing purpose of establishing a college, it led to a complete orga-
ization and a fuller provision than is customary in academies
where colleges are already in existence. Hence the College
School, as now distinct from the College of California, lias Is
ample provisions as many colleges. Its property is estimated at
one hundred thousand dollars. There are three well organized
Departments ; the Classical or Preparatory, the Higher English,
and the Junior, the latter being divided into two grades, of
which the lowest is intended for very young pupils, who are
separated from the older students both in the school-rooms and
on the play grounds. The buildings are spacious, commodious,
well furnished, and comfortable. Accommodations are pro-
vided for two hundred boarding pupils.

FEMALE COLLEGE OF THE PACIFIC.
This institution owes its existence to the efforts of the Rev.
E. B. Walsworth, whose personal exertions first secured the
means of establishing it. During the first years of the institu-
tion, the Rev. S. S. Harmon and wife had the immediate con-
trol, and its success and present reputation is in no small degree
due to their skill as teachers, and to the efiiciency with which
they performed the varied duties which devolved upon them.
In April, 1864, the " Pacific Female College " was incorporated
under the general laws of the State. A department had been
opened June 15th, 1863, and the existence of the College, pro-
perly dates from that time. The first Board of Trustees con-
sisted of the following persons :
Louis McLane, J. G. Kellogg, R. B. Woodward, A. H. Hous-
ton, S. E. Alden, B. C. Horn, Mark Brumagim, J. P. Robinson,
E. B. Walsworth, W. R. Garrison, William Xorris, A. B. For-
bes, Samuel B. McKee, Geo. W. Mowe, Hon. F. F. Low, R. W.
Kirkham, C. Palmer, Erwin Davis, D. D. Colton, M. R.
Roberts.
The College has steadily grown in numbers and importance,
and several classes have graduated, having completed the pre-
scribed course of study. There is now an attendance slightly
in excess of one hundred scholars, and fourteen teachers are en-
gaged at the Institution. The Rev. E. B. Walsworth is at the
head of the Institution.
By the terms of the Charter by which this Institution is
ranked among the Colleges of the State, it possesses the full
right of conferring all the customary degrees, both Academic
and Honorary, The degrees conferred are :
A. E. — The degree of " Artium Excelsior" will be conferred
on those members of the Institution who have completed the
regular course.
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 103
S. B. — The student wlio lias satisfactorily pursued all the pre-
scribed course, except the Ancient and Modern Languages, and
whose correct deportment is certified to by the Faculty, shall be
entitled to the degree of " Baccalaureate ot Science."
All successful candidates for either of the above degrees will
receive a diploma of the same grade, with that which confers a
a like dej^ree in other Colleges.
Oakland Seminary, — This Institution was commenced in
the City of Oakland on the 8th of November, 1858, by Mrs. G.
M . Blake, its present Principal . Mrs. Blake on that day com-
menced in a private parlor on Broadway and Sixth streets, with
a class of four 'young ladies. On the 1st day of April, 1859,
the school was so much increased as to requise a larger room and
was removed to the corner of Broadway and Eighth streets, now
occupied by a building owned by Dr. Sanford. On the 1st day
of March, 1860, it was again removed to the corner of Fifth and
Jackson streets, to the house of J. Rosss Browne, where it re-
mained nearly four years . A new building was commenced in
June, 1863, and completed on the 2-lth day of October of the
same year, at which time the school was again removed to the
spot where it now stands, and was there permanently established.
There are three separate departments in the school — Collegiate,
Intermediate and Primary. The School affords the advantages
of a thorough English course, the ancient and modern languages,
music (vocal and instrumental), and all the ornamental branches.
Connected with the School, is a Board of visitoi-s, composed of
the following: srentlemen :
J^ o"
Rev. Samuel II. Willey, Hon. Sherman Day, Rev. Ben-
jamin Ackerly, Hon. O. L. Shafter, Rev. Henry Durant, Dr.
W. Newcomb, Rev. Margin Kellogg, Rev. George Mooar, Rev.

founder of the Institution, the means for building it having been
raised by his personal exertions ,

as follows : President, Wm. II. Rector ; Secretary, L. J, Rec-
tor ; Trustees, Volney Rector, B. F. Rector, and L. J. Rector.
January 1st, 18G8, the capital stock was increased to $200,000,
and the company nuule arrangements for the manufacture of flax
and jute into grain bags. The machinery for this purpose will

be in operation by March 1st, of the current year (1869). The
present officers of the company now are as follows :
President, Leopold Cohn ; Secretary, L. J. Eector ; Trustees,
F. P. Salomen, B. F. Rector, Leojjold Cohn.
There are forty persons employed at the mills, most of them
being females, and 1300 yards of shirting are manufactured daily.
In the way of this, as in every other similar enterprise, there have
been numerous obstacles, but most of them are overcome and suc-
cess seems assured.
The San Antonio Tannery was established in 1865, by "Wilcox
& Pohrs, the present owners. The business of the tannery
amounts to about S2,000 per month, this being the value of the
leather disposed of. The market for California leather, until a
comparatively late date, has not been inviting. The merits of
the leather tanned in this State have at last become known, and
the people will not much longer be obliged to send to the East
hides raised in California, and receive them back in the form of
leather, thus utterly losing the amount paid as freight.
AVithin the past few months Wm. AVatts has started a tan-
nery on the borders of the Bay of San Francisco, about one and
a half miles from the limits of this city. The tannery is of large
capacity, but the enterj)rise being in its infancy, the present
amount of business would not be a fair criterion by which to
judge of the business it will transact.
The Oakland Flouring Mills were built by Blanchard & Plum-
mer, in 1861. The present owners are Pendleton & Co. The
mill are located at the junction of the Telegraj)h and San Pablo
roads, in this city. They contain three run of stones, and if
worked to their fullest capacity 312 barrels of flour could be
manufactured each 21: hours. The mills are in operation the
greater part of the year, and the business appears to be in a con-
dition highly satisfactory.
The Venus Mills, located on 3d street, between Broadway
and Washington, were established in November, 1867, by "W.
.1
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. Ill
Starr, and are at present owned by Starr tfe Miles. The mills
contain two run of stones, and can produce 100 barrels of flour
in 24 working hours.
The Clinton Mills, located in the town of Clinton, were the
first established in the northern portion of the county, and their
present capacity is greater than that of any other similar estab-
lishwent in the county.
The Pioneer Planing Mills were established by D. G. Barnes,
in the spring of year 1865, and at that time afforded employ-
ment to four men. The mills are now owned by Blethen &
Terry, Thirty men are constantly engaged there, and imtil a
very recent date, all the mill work required in the city was done
at the Pioneer Mills. Within the past few months an extensive
addition has been made, and the capacity of the mills further
increased.
The Oakland Planing Mills are located on the corner of
Washinffton and First streets, and owned bv Burnham Sz Standi-
ford. These mills are not in full operation, the building having
lately been completed, and all the required machinery not yet
being put in position. The building is one of the most substan-
tial in the State, and all improvements connected with the mills
are of the most durable nature.
At the Oakland Point, Philips &: Tew have, during the past
summer, established planing mills near the lumber yard of P.
S. Page ife Co., and are doing a prosperous business.
Oakland Bank of Savings. — This is the first regular bank
ever established in Oakland. Its certificate of incorporation
was executed August 13th, 1867, and signed by A. C. Henry,
Ed. M. Hall, Samuel Merritt, P. S. Wilcox, AY. W. Crane, Jr,
and Joseph Becht. The ofticers first elected were as follows :
President, A. C. Henry ; Cashier, E. M. Hall ; Board of Di-
rectors, E. M. Hall, Samuel Merritt, A. C, Henry, P. S. AVillcox,
"NV. W. Crane, Jr. ; Finance Committee, E. M. Hall, A. C. Henr}-,
P. S. AV^illcox ; Auditing Conmiittee, Samuel Merritt, Henry C.

The capital stock of the bank is $150,000, divided into fifteen
hundred shares of one hundred dollars each.
Oakland Gas-Light Company. — The Oakland Gas-Light
Company was incorporated in 1866, and the first street lamps in
the city were lighted in January, 1867. The works of the Com-
pany are located on the corner of Washington and First streets ;
six retorts are in use, eight miles of pipe are laid through the
various streets of the city, and additions are continuously being
made . Eighty street lamps are in use. The following are the
oiRcers of the Company :
President, H . H . Haight ; Vice-President, Jos. G. Eastland ;
Secretary, Jas. Freeborn ; Superintendent, Van Leer Eastland .
December 8th, 1865, the City Council passed an ordinance,
granting to W , W . Beggs, J . G . Eastland and others, the right
to lay down pipes and erect gas works in the city. The present
Company is the legal successor to these individuals, and exer-
cises the rights and privileges originally conveyed to them. The
contract under which the street lamps are erected and main-
tained was ordered by the Council, July 13th, 1868, It
stipulates that for the period of ten years, from July 1st, 1868,
the gas lamps to be used in the streets of Oakland shall be
erected and maintained by the Oakland Gas-Light Company.
For the first five years, the Company shall receive 22^ cts. per
night per lamp, until the number may exceed 250, when the
price shall be 20 cts. per night for each lamp used. At the ex-
piration of five years, tlie price is to be fixed by a commission
of three persons, one of them to be named by the Company,
one by the City Council, and the third to be elected by the two
thus chosen. The amount of gas consumed is not large for a
city having the population of Oakland .
The Oakland Hailkoad Company. — The certificate of in-
corporation of this Company was filed in the office of the Sec-
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 113
retary of State, in December, 1864. As set forth in tlie certi-
ficate, the object of tlie Company is to build and maintain a
horse-railroad from the foot of Broadway, in this city, to the
University grounds. The road is to be five miles in length.
The capital stock of the Company is fixed at $50,000, divided
into five hundred shares of $100 each. The aftairs of the cor-
poration are managed by a Board of seven Directors. The
original incorporators were :
F. Delger, E. B. Walsworth, Israel W, Knox, A, Hersey,
S. E. Alden, I. H. Brayton, F. E. Weston, F. K. Shattuck,
B. F. Ferris, S. H. Willey, Geo. Goss, Geo. II. Fogg.
The ofticers of the Company are :
President, F. E. Weston; Vice-President, Joseph Emery;
Treasurer, B. F. Ferris; Secretary, Geo . II. Fogg; Directors,
F. E. Weston, A.J. Gladding, H. Durant, J. Emery, B. F.
Ferris, Geo. II. Fogg, andS. E. Alden.
The Company obtained its franchise from the Legislature,
May 3d, 1860. This special Act granted to the Company the
right to lay a track from Broadway Wharf to the University
Grounds, the track within the city limits to be a double one,
should the Company so desire. Along the Telegrajih road,
only a single track can be lajd . The fare for a single passenger
is not to exceed ten cents, and sixteen tickets must be sold for
one dollar. The franchise is to last thirty years. At the ex-
piration of ten years, the rates of fare are to be again fixed by
the Legislature. The speed shall not exceed eight miles an
hour. Long after the passage of this Act, the Company
showed scarcely any signs of vitality . Application was made
to the Legislature of 1868, and the time for com])leting the road
was extended, so that, under the law, one track must be laid
within the limits of the city three years and six months from
the date of the passage of the first Act, and the whole road
must be completed within five years from that time, or in 1871.
Orders have been sent East for iron, and it is now announced as
114 OAKLAND DIKECTORY.
tlie policy of the Company to carry forward its work with energy
and vigor . The country tlirough which it is to pass is thickly
settled . There are numerous homestead tracts, which it is be-
lieved would be speedily improved if there were some means of
cheap and pleasant communication with the city, and the pro-
spects of the Company appear to be excellent .
OAKLAifD Real Estate Associates. — This bodv was incor-
ported December 17th, 1867, with a capital stock of $100,000.
The object of the Corporation is to purchase and sell improved
and uni^nproved real estate . The officers are as follows :
Henry C . Lee, President ; John I . Spear, Jr . , Vice-Presi-
dent ; Wm . K . Flint, Secretary ; E . C . Sessions, General
Business Agent.

Offices, Broadway, Oakland, and 507 California street, San
Francisco .
Newspapers. — In the City of Oakland are published two
daily morning papers, the Oakland JS'ews and the Oakland
Transcnpt. The Oakland News was started by its present pro-
prietor, William Gagan, September 9th, 1863, when the publi-
cation of a small weekly sheet was commenced. The paper has
grown with the place, and the Oakland JSfews Printing House
is an establishment of considerable extent and importance. A
steam-power press is in use, and about twenty men are employed
in the various departments. The business is growing from
jnonth to month, and the circulation of the paper, already large,
is rapidly increasing. The Oakland T/'ansc/'ij?t was, started in
April, 1868, by H. Coffin, as an evening paper. In a few
months the paper was purchased by O. P . Truesdell, and has
been conducted by him up to the present time. Like the News,
it evidently receives it» proper proportion of the patronage of
OAKLAND DIRECTORY. 115
the people of Oakland. In years past, numerous papers have
been started and suspended for tlie want of patronage. Those
now publislied are apparently permanent and estal)lished .
Botanical Gardens. — Oakland not only takes precedence as
the seat of learning, but she also has the largest Botanical col-
lection of native and foreign trees, shrubs, plants and bulbous
roots on the Pacific Coast, which tlie enterprise of one of our
nurserymen could get together during the last nine years. Here
may be seen the conifera of our State, and the many beautiful
and curious plants indigenous to California, also, an extensive
collection of Australian and New Zealand trees and shrubs,
which flower during our winter, and almost make us forget the
season. Mexico, Chili and Peru, the West Indies and the
world in general lias contributed to give us such a collection of
plants as is seldom seen growing together outside of California,
Visitors from other States will here have an opportunity to see
our trees and plants without going all over the Stale. Belle View
Nursery is situated on the Telegraph road, and is open to the
public free of charge, and where Mr. Nolan, the proprietor, will
always be pleased to give any information he may possess on the
subject.

First Pkesbyterian Chukch. — This is the Pioneer Church
of Oakland. The first Poster, the Kev. S. B. Bell, commenced
services in Oakland early in 1853 or in the winter of 1852, the
Public School House being used as a place of worship. The
early history of this chiu'ch is exceedingly interesting. Its
Pastor and the'few members had many and severe obstacles to
withstand. The building now used was erected by them, on the
block on the west side of Harrison Square. Mr. Bell was suc-
ceeded in the ministry by the Pev . E. B . Walsworth, and Mr .
"Walsworth was followed by the Rev. L . Hamilton, tlie present
pastor, who entered upon his duties in December, 1865. The
congregation now own a splendid building lot on Fourteenth
street, adjacent to the City Hall property, as well as the property
where the church edifice now stands. The Board of Trustees
consists of J. J. Gardener, J . Hutchinson, W. C. Dodge, E.
C. Sessions, and W. H, Miller.
First Congregational Church. — The First Congregational
Church was organized December 9th, 1860, with a membership
of seventeen persons, and from that date until the present time
217 persons have been received into the Church. The present
membership is 175. During the first few months of the exist-
ence of the Church, the Pev. Geo. Pierson, of the Brooklyn
Presbvterian Church, officiated as Pastor. The Rev. Dr.
Mooar, the present Pastor, assumed his position May 6th, 1861.
OAKLAND DIRECTORY.

about $40,000.
The fine block on Broadway, between Tenth and Eleventh
streets, was purchased for $1,400 in September, 1861. The
church edifice was dedicated June 15th, 1862. There were ex-
pended upon its erection and its entire furnishing, $11,345. In
the Fall of 1867, the building was lengthened twenty feet at a
cost of $3,500. A convenient chapel was erected in the sprino-
of 1868, at a further cost of $2,500. The church has 100 pews.

The Oakland Guard. — The Oakland Guard was organized
at the outbreak of the rebellion, and during its existence stood
in readiness to perform any service that might be required. It
took an important part in aiding to suppress the secret attempt
made to throw the State into a state of anarchy, and to give it
over to the control of the Confederacy. The first Captain of
the Company was James Brown, subsequently City Marshal of
Oakland, and now a member of the Police Force. At a later

OF THE
CALIFORNIA TRUST COMPANY,
SAN FRANCISCO.
This Company is now prepared to receive money on deposit from Courts, Corporations, Capi-
talists, Public Institutions, Business Men, Executors, Administrators, Treasurers, Agents, Persons
unaccustomed to business, and others, payable on demand, or at any specified time, and allow such
interest for the same as may be agreed upon.
To loan its Capital, Deposits, and Trust Funds, at current rates of interest, on Real Estate, on
National, State, City, and County Bonds, and on good Local Stocks, Merchandise, and other availa
ble collaterals pledged to the Company.
To receive on Special Deposit, for safe keeping, at reasonable rates. Cash Boxes, Tin Trunks,
Bullion, Jewelry, Precious Stones, Gold and Silver Plate, Public Securities, Bonds, Stocks, Wills,
Title Deeds, Insurance Policies, and other valuable property and papers.
To act as Agent for Governments, Corporations, Eastern and Foreign Capitalists, Non-Resi-
dents, Persons leaving the State, and other parties, in the investment of Funds, the purchase and
sale of Real Estate, Public Securities, Stocks, and other property, the collection of Debts, Interest,
Dividends, Rents, Accounts, and in any monetary or personal business.
To act as Trustee for Corporations, Absentees, Married Women, Minor Heirs, Testators, and
others, in holding and managing Real Estate and Personal Property, in Mortgages, Deeds, Wills,
and other documents made to secure the payment of Bonds, Legacies, Annuities, and for other
Trust purposes.
The Company will act as Receiver in cases of Litigation, of money paid into Courts, of Assets
belonging to Estates, of Funds awaiting disposition, and in unsettled Partnership concerns. Also, as
Executor of Wills and Administrator of Estates ; as Guardian for Children, Insane Persons, and
others incapacitated from transacting business; as Treasurer for Companies, Societies, and Charitable
Institutions. It will hold Powers of Attorney for Non-Residents and parties absent from the
State, and will transact any business th.it may properly be done by a Trust or Safe-Deposit Company.
The affairs of the Company will be conducted upon liberal, but safe principles. It will not
discount or deal in Commercial or Business Paper, and no Loans will be made on Individual
Security. The interest allowed on Deposits and Trust Funds, and that charged on Loans will
be equitable. The rates for the safe keeping of Valuable Property and Papers will be reasonable,
and all Agency and other business will be transacted on liberal terms. The Vaults of the Com-
pany are the largest and strongest in the State, built for the Safe-Deposit business, and are perfectly
tire and burglar-proof.
Deposits will be received and accounts kept in Gold and Silver Coin, or National Currency,
payable in the same, as customers may desire. The Company will have Correspondents in every
State and Territory of the Union, and in Foreign Countries having business relatidfts with the Pacific
Coast, thus affording good facilities for making collections and transacting financial business. Eastern
citizens and foreign travelers visiting California on business, or for pleasure, are invited to have
their letters and papers addressed to the care of the Company, and can use its office for their business
and correspondence.
Especial attention is called to the great advantages of employing this Company in the transaction
of such business, in preference to individuals: A large Guarantee Capital, with over Two Hundred
Stockholders; its operations directed and controlled by a responsible Board of Trustees ; a Perpetual
existence; a Permanent and Central Office, where business can be transacted without delay ; faithful
and obliging Officers and Employes, who will promptly attend to the interests of all customers ;
a well-organized system of Records and Accounts, showing every transaction with the Company;
and the security of Fire and Burglar-proof Vaults, constructed expressly for the Safe-Deposit business.
These features are strongly urged in its favor, against, on the other hand — Individual Respon-
sibility; the Uncertainty of Life; the Fluctuations of Business; the Changes of Residence; the
frequent Unfaithfulness and Neglect of Agents ; the Inconvenience to Friends; the Loss of Time in
waiting upon private parties ; and the danger of loss by Fire or Theft of valuable property and
papers.
Courts, Corporations, Capitalists, Public Officers, Business Men, Executors, Administrators, Treas-
urers, Agents, Travelers, Strangers, persons unaccustomed to business, and others, are invited to
examine the organization and responsibility of this Company, and avail themselves of any facilities
it m.iv afford for their business.

BROOKLYN TOWNSHIP.
This township extends from the Estuary at the eastern ex-
tremity of the city of Oakland to the San Leandro Creek ;
bounded on the south by the Bay of San Francisco. There are
two towns recognized, but tliere is no city or town government.
The settlement at the head of the San Antonio Creek, and for
many years known as San Antonio, is probably the oldest on the
creek. Previous to the occupation of the country by the
Americans, the small slough at the town of San Antonio was
used as a landing place by dealers in hides and tallow. The
town has for some years past been recognized by the name of
Brooklyn. The pioneer settler is Mr. James B. Larue, now one
of the leading business men of the place. The Justice of the
Peace of the Township is the Hon. Asa Walker, who was
among the earliest residents, of that locality. There are five re-
ligious orgunizations. viz : one Presbyterian, one Catholic, one
Episcopal, two Baptist. The Rev. George Pierson is pastor of
the Presbyterian Church ; Eev. John Francis, of one of the
Baptist Churches ; the Catholic Church is supplied from the
pastorate at Oakland, and the Episcopal services are conducted
by an army chaplain, regularly stationed at the Presidio, near
San Francisco.
On the banks of the Estuary is located the town of Clinton,
which dm'ing the past two years has grown with great rapidity.
It consists exclusively of dwelling houses.
In the Town of Brooklyn there is an excellent Public School^
the Grammar school studies receiving the proper attention. In
these two towns the values of real estate have increased as
rapidly during the past two xenrs, as they have in the city of
Oakland, and should the prevailing expectations concerning the
future of this city be realized, these towns in common with
Oakland, would form one continuous and united city. "Within
the legal limits of the township are one flouring mill, one pottery,
one brick yard, and a cotton mill, enterprises that have else-
where been noticed. The total number of votes cast in the
Township, at the late Presidential election, was 414.

THE TOWN OF ALAMEDA.
Alameda Township comprises the Encinel, or peninsula, bound-
ed on the north by the San Antonio Creek, on the west, south
and east by the Bay of San Francisco. Like Oakland, the land
is covered by a thick growth of oaks, and the soil is sandy. In
1854, the Legislature passed an Act to incorporate the Town o*
Alameda, but no to^ government is required, and none is now-
maintained. Alameda contains many fine private residences, but
the place does not appear to have kept pace with the growth of
Oakland and Brooklyn. At the western extremity of the Encinel
are the machine shops of the San Francisco and Alameda Eailroad
Company, which are extensive and complete. This railroad, ex-
tending to Ilaywards, transacts a great amount of business, and
at certain seasons of the year the immense amount of grain grown
in Alameda County is transported to the metropolis by this route.
The private Insane Asylum located in this toNvn is the only
one worthy oi^Tiiention in the State, and since it has been open-
ed many unfortunate persons have been sent there by their friends
in preference to the State institution.
There are two churches in the town, a Presbyterian and a Meth-
odist. The contemplated improvements of the Western Pacific
Railroad Company, to be located at the western part of the town,
will build it into a city but slightly inferior to Oakland^ its infe-
riority consisting in the fact that there is back of the place no
continuous stretch of territory as there is adjacent to Oakland.
At the late Presidcntiel election, 149 votes were cast in the Town-
ship.
Appended are given the names of the residents of the town
and their occupation.

These long established Nurseries are constantly adding to
their large and varied stock, in order to meet the largely
increasing demand of the Pacific Coast ; also, the Islands of
the Ocean, as well as the great countries beyond.
The business of 1868-'69 exceeding that of any former year,
the Proprietor has planted, this season, three times as much as
ever before, and on new gi'ound, not heretofore used for grow-
ing trees ; thereby insuring healthy and thrifty trees, and
grown without irrigation.
Parties planting in different sections of the State, can be
supplied, by applying directly to the Nurseries, or by orders
through any of the Seedsmen in San Francisco.
Especial attention given to Fruit trees, and also to Shade
trees for side walks, groves, lawns, parks, etc., etc.
Persons desirous of visiting the Nurseries, are invited to do
so at any time during the season for growing or selling.
