The follow digest of the memorial. After preamble, the substance of which the petitioners are interested in tion of freights and fares, charged portation on the railroads of this those extending beyond the State there being no competition, there are, to a certain extent, oppressi "We therefore, as a measure of to the interests of the government as to rid ourselves of a corruptive monopoly, ask you, at an eas pass an Act which shall authorize torney-General to file appropriate the equity side in the proper Circu making in the case of the Union railroad company and the Credit and every member thereof parties the case of the Central Pacific, ma Contract and Finance Committees each member thereof, parties, the which bill shall be: First—To ascertain the amount realized from bonds of the United and sale of lands donated for the tion of the railroad. Second—To ascertain how much money went into the construc equipment of this road. Third—How much money so been diverted from the purpose trust reposed in these companies given. Fourth—Into whose hands such have been diverted. Fifth—How much money bas Making a Fortune. Samuel McF—was a watchman in a town. He was poor, but honest, and his was without reproach. The trouble him was that he felt that he was not appreciated. His salary was only four dollars a week, and when he asked that it be paid to the President, the Cashier, and the of Directors glared at him through spectacles, and frowned on him and him to go out and stop his insolence, he knew that business was dull and bank could not meet its expenses now. One lavishing one dollar a week on a miserable worm as Samuel McF— then Samuel McF—felt depressed sad, and the haughty scorn of the indent and Cashier cut him to the soul. Could often go into the side yard and his venerable twenty-four inch head, keep gallons of tears over his insignance, and pray he might be worthy of Cashier's and President's polite atton. The night a happy thought struck him; am of light burst upon his soul, and g down the dim vista of years with ves all blinded with joyous tears. He himself rich, honored and respected. Samuel McF—looked around and jimmy, a monkey-wrench, a crossnew a cold-chisel a drill and about these companies raised from operating such road, and how it has been used. Sixth—To ascertain how much private money went into the construction and equipment of the road, who advanced it, and who now own the stock representing it. Seventh—To compel all persons who have any part of such trust funds to account for the same, and pay it over to the peper officers of the companies. Eighth—To take a full account of the affairs of each of said companies, and compel them and the officers thereof, to make restitution of all moneys and lands which have been wrongfully obtained or misapplied by either or any party. Ninth—That the Court ascertain the amount of private property there may be invested in said roads, and after making full compensation for such private interests, that the roads be declared and be made, in fact, public. Tenth—That a bureau be established to operate said roads in the interest of the government, and for general relief. We do not desire to conceal the fact that we look forward, hoping and expecting that the time will come when the general government will own at least one line of roads from San Francisco to New York; thus, without other legislation, the people will have it in their power, by competition Santa Barbara. A correspondent of the New York Time, writing from Santa Barbara, says: "Of late an abundance of highly exaggerated descriptions of Santa Barbara have found their way into Eastern periodicals. I doubt whether a single person, of the many who land here every week, has anything like a correct idea of the realities of the place. Its rose-colored side is always presented, and the result is frequently that those who come are greatly disappointed in Santa Barbara and its surroundings. Like all other places it has its disadvantages as well as its advantages. One of the greatest objections to this locality is its inaccessibility. By dist of hard driving in what is known here as a "mud wagon," one can possibly reach San Francisco in forty-eight hours. No invalid, however, would nor could endure such a trip, and consequently, the only available means of reaching here from San Francisco is by sea. The boats leave that city every week, on Thursday, for Santa Barbara usually making the trip in about thirty-six hours. The accommodations on these coast steamers, which are nearly always overloaded, are simply execrable; such as in the Eastern States no company would dare offer to the traveling public. The invalid in coming down will also find, after enduring a miserable existence during the voyage, that on reaching this place, which is generally in the night, the passengers are landed, not at the wharf, but by means of small boats. This is said to be owing to some quarrel existing between the wharf and steamship companies of the merits of which I know nor care nothing." Signatures Wanted. The Postoffice can be seen a memorial press, adopted by the Farmers' Club to commemorate which has been left at the signatures. The following is a list of the memorials. After a lengthy debate, the substance of which is that nationals are interested in the reductions and fares charged for transports on the railroads of this State and extending beyond the State; that being no competition, these charges certain extent, oppressive: Therefore, as a measure of protection interests of the government, as well ourselves of a corrupting, oppressively popoly, ask you, at an early day, to act which shall authorize the Attomeeral to file appropriate bills on any side in the proper Circuit Courts, in the case of the Union Pacific company and the Credit Mobilier by member thereof parties, and in of the Central Pacific, making the Railroad Finance Committee with member thereof parties, the scope of all shall be: To ascertain the amount of money from bonds of the United States of lands donated for the construction railroad. To ascertain how much of this went into the construction and cost of this road. How much money so raised has been from the purposes of the land in those companies by Con- Info whose hands such moneys are diverted. How much money has been by which are nearly always overloaded, are simply execrable; such as in the Eastern States no company would dare offer to the traveling public. The invalid in coming down will also find, after enduring a miserable existence during the voyage, that on reaching this place, which is generally in the night, the passengers are landed, not at the wharf, but by means of small boats. This is said to be owing to some quarrel existing between the wharf and steamship companies of the merits of which I know nor care nothing. [His manifestly unjust strictures on the steamer accommodations, lead us into the belief that he must be a chronic growler.] Many Eastern people have been disappointed, for they come expecting to find Eastern luxuries and Eastern accommodations. Visions of olives and almonds, figs and oranges, which were waiting to be devoured, were present with them. They imagined, indeed, that this was a kind of earthly paradise. The reality has not equaled the expectations of such. The town itself is, on the whole, a rather dilapidated affair, although there are some fine places which no one can fail to admire. If one secures even comfortable quarters at twice what they could be secured for in any Eastern village of the same size, he is fortunate. As to "luxuriating on semi-tropical fruits," inferior oranges can be purchased at the rate of three for "two bits," or a dollar a dozen. Poor lemons retail at the same price as oranges, while olives, figs and almonds are fully as costly in gold as in currency in the East. Of the almond and olive orchards which figure so largely in the usual descriptions of Santa Barbara, they are decidedly rare even terris. Perhaps there may be as many as half dozen of each, which are in a bearing state, in the county; not more, I think. The truth is, the only industry which has yet been really developed by the natives, is the Mustang trade. These mira- (Conscluded on fourth page.)
