that lay in the earth of California—and ‘in the brief span of
*. ; . .
-three generations a mighty new empire sprang up between the . <
Sierra and the sea.
_And as thousands, and later millions, of men and women
sought this land of opportunity, they took their living from
the ground. Agriculture, mining, lumber, oil—these were the
foundations of growth and greatness.
Nature has continued to smile on California. Her resources, at ready hand, yield rich returns. Workers in her fields
and mines reap higher reward for their labor than is paid anywhere else in the world. and the conditions of their employment are rendered kindlier by a beneficient climate. That is
why, perhaps, efforts.to plant the seeds of labor and social unrest among them are proving increasingly unproductive—as
was evidenced in the recent, unsuccessful attempt to influence
workers in the mines of the Grass Valley-Nevada City .area
and the Mother Lode to lay down their picks. Receiving the
highest pay of gold miners the world over; for the most part
owning or buying homes and accumulating savings for the accepted “‘luxuries’’ of modern life, automobiles, radios, education for their childre,n—they view with understandable sus-picion the subsidized activities and “‘causes’” of professional
agitators.
The blessings of nature are the blessings of man, and in
California man is loath to revoke that benediction.
