Excerpt from Appendix to the Journals of the Senate and Assembly of the Twenty-Seventh Session of the Legislature of the State of California, 1887, Vol. 1
The manifold industrial, mechanical, and commercial interests of the State are in a highly prosperous condition, immigration is pouring in, property values are being enhanced, rich resources developed, fields for labor are multiplying, and peace and good order - the concomitants of prosperity - everywhere prevail. Providence has been bountiful to the whole people, and it becomes their representatives to discharge their duties with zeal and fidelity as the most acceptable manifestation of gratitude.
The reports of the Controller and Board of Equalization, which I trans mit herewith, are replete with information regarding the financial affairs of our State government, and deserve your careful perusal.
