PAPER TOLD OF
Fifty-six jfoara hro yestorday tho
entire American nation wns plunged
In mournliiR for tho death of tho
country's president, Abruham Mn
coln. From coast to coast tho wires
quickly flashed tho nows of tho death
of Ilooth'a victim.
On tho writer's dosk In n copy of
tho Dally Alta California, of Han
Francisco, Issued Hunday moraine,
April 10, lnon, Its four pages given
over to nov.8 of tho procodlnc day's
assassination and editorial comment
theroon. Tho paper Is ownod by dux
Johnson, of this city, And highly
prized as n souvenir.
Tho first California newspaper was
n different stylo of Journal from to
day's pnpers, In the first place It had
but four paRos, but they wero largo
paRos, nine columns wldo and some
40 Inchon deep. It carried no larRO
headlines, even to announca tho
Rrontost tniRody thnt had over bo
fallen the nation. It sold nt fifty
centn n wook. or ten rents a copy. Ily
mnll tho price wns $18 a yenr.
Though differing from tho modern
newspaper In alio and dross, It l'"d
this In common It "covorcd I'm
story," and It must hnvo been a hlc
achievement In tho days whon nil
typo wns sot by hand and tologrnph
tolls worn high.
All tho column rules throughout
tho paper wero reversed, giving each
column a mourning bordor nn nlghth
of an Inch wldo. Tho first column nnd
a hnlf was Riven over to editorial
comment on thn assassination of the
president and tho nttack upon nnd
wounding of Secretary of State Ho
ward. Then followed two and a half col
umns of city news, which with tho
exception of a few Items on general
nubjects, doalt with thn effect of tho
issnsslnntlnn In San Frnnelsco.
Onn paragraph under tho heading,
