If lhe defeat of the Funding Bill in Congrews is going to result in a change oi ownership in the Central Pacific, and censequently more competition, whoever the owner» may be, it is almost certain to lead to great good to the mines of this State ami give an im|»etus to that indus try in all its branches. The Southern Pacific Company, while alone here in lhe field, has done nothing toward develop ing new districts, but wherever it has come into competition in the southern part of the State it has done much more building of branch lines in order to se cure the trade. Thia is well illustrated in the case of the Randsburg district. There is more need of a railroad, and more btuinees fur one, in many of the mining djstricte along the Sierras than at Randsburg, and if there had been two roads competing for the trade of the mines many branches would have given a greater impetus to mining than any thing else. Capitalists do not care to travel far beyond Pullman cars. Down at Randsburg, because it has a rival, the Southern Pacific hastens to consider the feasibility of building a branch from Mohave in order to secure that trade. If it were not for the com petition of the Santa Fa. the Southern Pacific's nephew au<! mining engineers would never have taken the trouble to go to Randsburg, lu Colorado, where there is competition, branch roads are built into all mining districts as soon as it is determined that there are good mines. The result has been of great ad vantage to Colorado in the development of her immense mineral resources, not only of silver and gold, but of iron and coal. Let a competing railroad come in to California and then we shall see the Southern Pacific hasten to build branch es in order to secure its share of the bus iness —Scientific Press.
