  • Assets:

The Comstock was the first silver mining camp in the United States,

[p. 289] "During the Civil War the production of the Comstock mines of over fifty millions in silver and gold was a distinct aid to the [p. 290] National Government. When Senator Stewart went to Washington in 1865 President Lincoln said to him: "We need as many loyal States as we can get, and the region you represent made it possible for the Government to maintain sufficient credit to continue this terrible war for the Union.", 1943, 1920-1850

It's discovery brought a new era not only to California and Nevada, but to the entire West, 1943

It lifted California out of a disheartening depression, 1943

It rejuvenated San Francisco, which in 1860 was but a ragged little town of fifty-two thousand people, 1943

In 1861 more substantial brick buildings were erected there than in all of the preceding years, nor did that growth ever cease, 1943

The opportunity for investments in the early years was limited, and nearly all of the profits from the Comstock were invested in San Francisco real estate and in the erection of fine buildings, 1943

However, the entire State shared in the benefits. California was the source of all supplies, from fruit to mining machinery, and every industry thrived, 1943

Even the money that the Californians had contributed for assessments was returned in purchases, 1943

"The discovery of the Comstock led men to look for mines throughout Nevada and its distant regions. Rich placers were found in Colorado in 1860, and soon afterward in Idaho and Montana. In Nevada, the thriving producing camps of Austin, Hamilton, Eureka, and Belmont sprang up, along with many smaller ones over the State. Mining for the first three decades in the State's history was the main industry, accompanied by the slow growth of the grazing, agricultural, and transportation industries. Mining was the economic factor that caused the separation from Utah of Nevada as a Territory, and later justified and supported statehood for Nevada, 1943

Comstock Mine Production, 1980, 1966, 1943, 1920-1950

  • (See Comstock Mine Wealth)
  • During the Civil War [1861-1865] the production of the Comstock mines of over fifty millions in silver and gold was a distinct aid to the [p. 290] National Government, 1943, 1865, 1920-1850

  • The production up to 1871 was approximately 60 percent silver and 40 percent gold. Thereafter the Crown Point and Con. Virginia bonanza changed that by returning a slight excess in favor of gold, 1943, 1871, 1870s, 1920-1850

After 1880, silver fell rapidly in value and the total value production of the Comstock may be stated at 55 percent silver and 45 percent gold, 1943, 1880s, 1920-1850

Low Grade Ores, 1943, 1895-1884, 1890-1882, 1881, 1880s, 1920-1850

  • The Belcher and the Crown Point, controlled by the Jones interests, and the Yellow Jacket, by the Sharon interests, reduced 750,000 tons of ore averaging $12 a ton, mill returns, during the eight years following 1882, but only to the advantage of their mills, 1943, 1890-1882, 1920-1850
  • ". . . [estimates based on] the sale value which increases the yield of the bonanza mines and of the Crown Point and of the Belcher by about $10,000,000, 1943, 1890-1882, 1920-1850
  • ". . .[estimates of the value of recovery from tailings] "worked by various private mills" ought to be $23,765.000 . . . The Bonanza Firm alone produced about $12,000,000 from tailings, up to 1881, and Sharon and Jones as much more. 1943, 1890-1882, 1881, 1870s, 1920-1850
  • "Lord's estimate of private profits is $2,000,000, whereas the Bonanza Firm alone made $9.070,728 from milling contracts, including profits from tailings and Sharon and associates, and Jones and associates in like manner, gathered in an additional $10,000,000. (It was not considered "good form" at that time to refer to private profits.), 1943, 1920-1850
  • The total of private profits was not less than $20,000,000. Expenditures by nonboard companies (referred to as "private companies"), and by individuals, from which no returns were had, may be placed at $11,000,000, 1943, 1920-1850
  • Senator J.P. Jones mined low-grade ores from the old stopes of the Crown Point and the Belcher for three years (as a lessee), [Jone leased his old mine (s) in 1880], 1943, 1883-1880, 1920-1850
  • In 1883, J.P. Jones was given a lease on the Con. Virginia stopes from the 1550 level upward under an agreement to pay a royalty of 50 cents a ton for every ton milled, 1943, 1883
  • All of the openings into the stopes had been sealed since the fire broke out in 1881 and it was stipulated that he should not begin operations until the stopes could be entered.
  • [Footnote: "When the [1881-1883] fire burned out the millions of feet of timbers which had been packed into the stopes as the ore was removed, the whole country caved downward to fill the vacancy. The cave extended far up on the hillside back of the town leaving a long crack like an earthquake slip. So great was the pressure in the stopes that pieces of old 14-inch timbers were compressed to 6 and even 4 inches and resembled petrified wood. The town itself slid downward a little, but without damage except to brick buildings." Nevada Historical Magazine for 1911-1912.], 1943
  • [p. 250] "Mackay was in Europe practically all of that year engrossed in the affairs of the proposed Atlantic cable, and it is evident that neither he nor Superintendent Patton had much confidence that the fills and margins of the old stopes could be mined at a profit. All of their efforts during the preceding four years [1883-1879] had been spent on a search for a new ore body below the Con. Virginia bonanza.1943
  • [p. 250] "Patton notified Jones in the spring of 1884 that he had extended a drift into the stopes o the 1200-foot level and that he could begin operations. Jones commenced in May, and up to November 1, 1885, had mined and milled 18,487 tons of ore yielding $310,109.69, or $16.70 a ton, valuing silver at $1,2929 an ounce. The discount brought the value down to $14 a ton.
  • Development work down to and including the 2900-foot level had been a continual disappointment, and on January 1, 1885, deep mining in the North End mines was abandoned. Ten months later the water was at the 2000-foot level and still rising, 1943
  • "As soon as it appeared that Jones was succeeding the Con. Virginia company began to extract low-grade ore below the 1550-foot level. For economy of management and operations the Con. Virginia and California companies were reincorporated on October 1, 1884, as the Consolidated California and Virginia Mining Company with a capital of 216,000 shares of the par value of $100 each. The company itself mined 19,670 tons, yielding $15.91 a ton during the first year, which gave a small profit. Mackay wanted the company to take over all of the operations and he [p. 251] persuaded Jones to surrender his lease to the company by agreeing to give him a one-third interest in the new milling company to be organized to mill the ores. James L. Flood who had taken his father's place in connection with mining affairs,, was the third partner. [p. 251 Footnotes: James C. Flood [ -1889] died in 1889 of a long and distressing illness with Bright's disease. It is said that Mackay and James L. Flood bought all of the stock in the treasury at the market price when these operations were begun.], 1943
  • The Jones lease was surrendered on January 1, 1886, and the Consolidated Company entered upon ten years of very profitable mining in and about the old stopes, although the operation would have been far less successful except for the lucky discovery of three narrow sheets of good ore adjoining the old California stopes. The first one was found in the summer of 1886, the second in 1891, and the last in 1894. It happened that the first was encountered after Mackay returned to take charge while Superintendent Patton took a vacation. Fair had done little crosscutting on either side of the bonanza owing to the rush of water that followed the cutting of clay walls. In these later years the stopes were practically dry as the water had been drained by deeper workings.
  • "During the years 1884 to 1895, inclusive, the mine produced 860,661 tons of ore, yielding $16,447,221, coin value, or $19.11 a ton, from which dividends amounting to $3,898,800 were paid, after the payment of $1 a ton royalty to the Sutro Tunnel Company. The value of the gold exceeded that of the coin value of the silver by nearly $2,000,000. The average milling charge was $6.50 per ton, with an 80 percent recovery rate. Mackay and Flood had large idle mills at that time, which enabled them to make a low milling charge . . . , 1943

  • Sharon suffered his first defeat when Mackay and his associates took control of the Hale & Norcross in 1869, 1943, 1869
  • The Bonanza Firm adopted the system when it took control of the Hale & Norcross in 1869. Mackay and Fair had two idle mills at the time, which they wanted to put in operation. Additional mills were acquired as more ore was developed, and, when that mine began to fail, the Firm took a gamble on the Con. Virginia, partly in the hope of finding some low-grade ore in the old upper workings for their idle mills. That hope was not realized, but [p. 253] the lucky discovery of ore of moderate grade on the 1200 level soon put their mills to work. As the bonanza developed more mills were built or purchased, with the result that all of the bonanza ores were worked by the Firm, chiefly in large low-cost mills. 1943, 1870s, 1869
  • Paid more in dividends than they collected in assessments, 1943

The stopes were so large . . . that square-set timbering alone would not hold up the ground without reinforcement, and . . . the Con. Virginia and the California . . . mines were required to use millions of feet of heavy timbers to fill in their square sets and build bulkheads as the ore was removed,, 1943, 1872, 1870s

In 1883 Senator J.P. Jones, who had been mining low-grade ores from the old stopes of the Crown Point and the Belcher for three years (as a lessee) [Jone leases his old mine (s) in 1880], 1943, 1883-1880, 1920-1850

J.P. Jones was given a lease on the Con. Virginia stopes from the 1550 level upward under an agreement to pay a royalty of 50 cents a ton for every ton milled, 1943, 1883

  • All of the openings into the stopes had been sealed since the fire broke out in 1881 and it was stipulated that he should not begin operations until the stopes could be entered, 1943

[Footnote: "When the [1881-1883] fire burned out the millions of feet of timbers which had been packed into the stopes as the ore was removed, the whole country caved downward to fill the vacancy. The cave extended far up on the hillside back of the town leaving a long crack like an earthquake slip. So great was the pressure in the stopes that pieces of old 14-inch timbers were compressed to 6 and even 4 inches and resembled petrified wood. The town itself slid downward a little, but without damage except to brick buildings." Nevada Historical Magazine for 1911-1912.], 1943

[p. 250] "Mackay was in Europe practically all of that year engrossed in the affairs of the proposed Atlantic cable, and it is evident that neither he nor Superintendent Patton had much confidence that the fills and margins of the old stopes could be mined at a profit. All of their efforts during the preceding four years [1883-1879] had been spent on a search for a new ore body below the Con. Virginia bonanza, 1943

[p. 250] "Patton notified Jones in the spring of 1884 that he had extended a drift into the stopes o the 1200-foot level and that he could begin operations. Jones commenced in May, and up to November 1, 1885, had mined and milled 18,487 tons of ore yielding $310,109.69, or $16.70 a ton, valuing silver at $1,2929 an ounce. The discount brought the value down to $14 a ton.

Development work down to and including the 2900-foot level had been a continual disappointment, and on January 1, 1885, deep mining in the North End mines was abandoned. Ten months later the water was at the 2000-foot level and still rising, 1943

"As soon as it appeared that Jones was succeeding the Con. Virginia company began to extract low-grade ore below the 1550-foot level. For economy of management and operations the Con. Virginia and California companies were reincorporated on October 1, 1884, as the Consolidated California and Virginia Mining Company with a capital of 216,000 shares of the par value of $100 each. The company itself mined 19,670 tons, yielding $15.91 a ton during the first year, which gave a small profit. Mackay wanted the company to take over all of the operations and he [p. 251] persuaded Jones to surrender his lease to the company by agreeing to give him a one-third interest in the new milling company to be organized to mill the ores. James L. Flood who had taken his father's place in connection with mining affairs,, was the third partner. [p. 251 Footnotes: James C. Flood [ -1889] died in 1889 of a long and distressing illness with Bright's disease. It is said that Mackay and James L. Flood bought all of the stock in the treasury at the market price when these operations were begun.], 1943

The Jones lease was surrendered on January 1, 1886, and the Consolidated Company entered upon ten years of very profitable mining in and about the old stopes, although the operation would have been far less successful except for the lucky discovery of three narrow sheets of good ore adjoining the old California stopes. The first one was found in the summer of 1886, the second in 1891, and the last in 1894. It happened that the first was encountered after Mackay returned to take charge while Superintendent Patton took a vacation. Fair had done little crosscutting on either side of the bonanza owing to the rush of water that followed the cutting of clay walls. In these later years the stopes were practically dry as the water had been drained by deeper workings, 1943, 1894, 1891, 1886,

"During the years 1884 to 1895, inclusive, the mine produced 860,661 tons of ore, yielding $16,447, 221, coin value, or $19.11 a ton, from which dividends amounting to $3,898,800 were paid, after the payment of $1 a ton royalty to the Sutro Tunnel Company. The value of the gold exceeded that of the coin value of the silver by nearly $2,000,000. The average milling charge was $6.50 per ton, with an 80 percent recovery rate. Mackay and Flood had large idle mills at that time, which enabled them to make a low milling charge . . .

[p. 252] "It is interesting to note that the low-grade operations in the bonanza mines yielded more in dividends than were paid by any of the other Comstock mines in all their history with the exception of three-the Savage, the Crown Point, and the Belcher, 1943

  • Marsh, Smith and Powell submitted their report concerning the damage to Santa Monica School District stuctures due to the March 10, 1933 Long Beach Earthquake on May 9, 1933, and the Board of Education employed Paul Jeffers and Murray Erick, consultant engineers, to review the findings and recommendations submitted up to that time. [8. Board Minutes, May 9, 1933.]
  • Jeffers and Erick returned their report on May 29, 1933, describing the weaknesses of the Santa Monica school buildings in detail. The following items were included in their report:

"Many of these details of faulty construction could be corrected and the buildings thereby made safe for occupancy in case of mild quake. Such reconstruction would not, however, be sufficient to make the buildings safe for occupancy, in case of another earthquake of the degree of intensity of the Long Beach and Santa Barbara quakes. Such construction would make your buildings somewhat better than the average school building.

"We therefore recommend that, with the exception of the oldest buildings which do not warrant the costs of reinforcing, all buildings be properly reinforced to withstand some definite horizontal force, thereby minimizing the damage by earthquake, of which this type of building has proven susceptible.

"This reinforcing is not difficult of achievement nor is it particularly expensive for the average school building. Only by such reinforcing of the building can assurance be had that every reasonable precaution has been taken to safeguard the lives of the children who are compelled to occupy the buildings." [10. Board Minutes, May 29, 1933.]

Peterson and Rowell, considering the problem of what to do with the present Santa Monica School District structures, following the 1933 Long Beach earthquake stated that it would be impossible to prepare them against a major shock with entirely new construction, 1952, 1933, 1930s

  • Confirming reports from other inspection groups, they emphasized that in a semi-major quake Santa Monica would sustain approximately the same loss as had the Compton and Long Beach schools in the March disaster, 1952, 1933, 1930s
  • To prepare against a shock of this intensity would entail a complicated and costly program, 1952, 1933, 1930s
  • A great deal could be done, however, to minimize the loss of both property and life by eliminating the hazards in Santa Monica schools known to be the same as those from which the Long Beach-Compton areas suffered. [7. Loc. cit.], 1952, 1933, 1930s

While the engineers were completing their examination of these data, some fifty or more citizens made a tour of inspection of the damaged schools in the Compton and Long Beach areas with representatives of the architectural firm of Marsh, Smith and Powell pointing out the faulty construction. The group, deeply impressed by what they had seen, immediately elected a committee to make further investigations. Moe M. Fogel, chairman of the committee, appealed to various civic organizations to appoint their own representatives to serve as an advisory committee. [9. Pearl, op. cit., p. 60.], 1952

Early in October of 1933, while the citizen's committee was still studying plans with the engineers, another earthquake but of relatively minor intensity, disturbed the public mind. The committee, perhaps somewhat influenced by the latest tremblor as well as what they had witnessed and the reports they had perused, advised the Board of Education to call a bond election for the purpose of providing funds for strengthening and reconstruction of school buildings, to the amount of $200,000. The bond election, held October 24, 1933, failed to receive the necessary two-thirds vote, thus leaving the Board without funds to carry out the recommendations made. [11. Santa Monica Evening Outlook, Oct. 25, 1933, p. 1.], 1952, 1933

District Attorney Burton Fitts of Los Angeles County held

  • that the negative result of the election absolved the School Board, individually and collectively, from legal responsibility in case of damage or injury resulting from future earthquakes.
  • Thus, on Fitts' further advice, Superintendent Davis filed with the grand jury a complete report of the steps taken to provide earthquake-proof school buildings for the children of Santa Monica. [12. Pearl, op. cit., p. 61.]
  • But such self-protective measures could do nothing to accomplish the end results desired.
  • And so, in November of 1933, three members of the citizens' committee, C.H. Cromer, structural engineer, Fitts, and Dr. Ellet Harding, the President of the Board of Education-met with the grand jury for further discussion of the problem at hand.
  • This meeting precipitated an inspection of the Santa Monica schools by the State Department of Architecture, the first such inspection to be made by this department; and the information gleaned during this investigation guided the State in formulating its "earthquake code' for public schools. [13. Personal interview with Percy R. Davis, Feb. 16, 1951; Los Angeles, California.], 1952

California State Department of Architecture, 1952, 1934, 1933

  • Based on Los Angeles Grand Jury Information, inspected the Santa Monica School facilites, the first inspection,
  • And used the information in formulating the State of California "earthquake code' for public schools. [13. Personal interview with Percy R. Davis, Feb. 16, 1951; Los Angeles, California.]

When the findings of the State Commission finally were released, condemning all Santa Monica schools as unsafe, 1952

The late Mayor William H. Carter, then commissioner of public works in Santa Monica, ordered the schools closed, 1952

This news, released on March 13, 1934, was received with mixed emotions: the children gave it joyous acclaim, but their parents and the Board of Education were plunged into a state of mind bordering consternation, 1952

The report of the State Commission had dashed any hopes they may have had that the report of Jeffers and Erick perhaps presented a too pessimistic view concerning the physical condition of the schools. [14. Board Minutes, Mar. 13, 1934.]

Superintendent Davis, anticipating these reports had already ordered the erection of tents on the school grounds the purpose being to use them for classrooms until such time as a more permanent solution to the school housing problem could be found.

In the elementary district the amount expended for such equipment did not exceed $26,000, and an even smaller sum was required to make the high school safe for occupancy until more complete changes could be made. [15. Santa Monica Evening Outlook, July 8, 1950, p. 70.], 1952

The rehabilitation of the schools proceeded on funds appropriated from the districts, and on money borrowed from the county unapportioned fund. [16. Board Minutes, April 23, 1934.]

The work was organized as projects of the State Emergency Relief Administration, a dozen or more in number, including the demolition of the old Roosevelt, Washington, and Grant elementary schools and the old Garfield building, then occupied by the Santa Monica Junior College.

But even before these projects were completed, it was rumored that Federal funds were to be made available for school reconstruction. Accordingly Morton Anderson, President of the Board of Education, was sent at once to Washington to represent Santa Monica and make a personal appeal for the needs of the district. He was the first of such representatives to arrive at the national capitol. Upon his return, Anderson reported that Congressman John Dockweiler, Senator Hiram Johnson, and Admiral Peoples, chief of the Public Works Division, had agreed to allocate $1,500,000 to the Santa Monica School District for the rebuilding of its schools. [17. Santa Monica Evening Outlook, Sept. 9, 1935, p. 1.]

With this heartening assurance from Washington, the Board of Education called another school bond election for November 12, 1935, with bonds totaling $290,000. This sum represented 20 per cent of the total cost of the proposed program as required by the Works Progress Administration. The campaign for the bonds that followed stirred Santa Monica as no previous campaign had done, with civic organizations, women's clubs, parent-teacher associations, and even high school students and children from elementary grades taking part. Nevertheless, the opposition was strong, and to the usual cries of waste and extravagance it now added lurid charges of graft and corruption. The Outlookcommented editorially:

  • "That Santa Monica needs new school construction is undeniable; that anyone should attempt to controvert such a movement is unthinkable.
  • "A more sound and completely invulnerable plan could scarcely be devised whereby any municipal corporation of any bond district would receive an outright gift of four dollars for every dollar voted in a bond issue.
  • "If the city repudiates this measure at the polls, certainly it will be performing a nasal excision, for some other city will get the allotment, and Santa Monicans will have to pay their share of the bill in exactly the same amount as though the $1,500,000 was being spent upon the improvement of Santa Monica, and the safeguarding of Santa Monica school children.
  • "The work must be done. Only one issue exists, whether the citizens of this city want the work to be done with a Federal grant, and reduce the municipal taxes, or whether they want the work to be done with money from the already heavily budgeted municipal treasury and the added load of stiffly increased taxes." [18. Santa Monica Evening Outlook, Nov. 9, 1935, p.6.]

There is no question that the fact of the Federal Government's willingness to make an outright gift to the district of $1,500,000 armed the bond campaigners with a powerful argument. [19. Pearl, op. cit., pp. 62-3.] But even more powerful was the argument that if the bonds carried, the immediate employment of some 1400 Santa Monica residents would follow, and via their wages a large part of the $1,500,000 would begin to circulate through local channels of trade, blessing empty tills as it traveled. The school bonds carried, and with a record-breaking nine-to-one majority. [20. Board Minutes, Nov. 18, 1935.], 1952, 1935, 1930s

 None of the inspected Santa Monica School buildings was better than class C construction,

Some of the the inspected Santa Monica School buildings were Class D, 1952, 1933, 1930s

  • In the event of an earthquake equal in intensity to that of the Long Beach-Compton area, Santa Monica's schools would meet the same fate that befell schools of class C and D construction there.
  • Some of the features of the school buildings listed as hazards were: side walls too high, unsupported large window openings, large rooms with insufficient supports for the room above, workmanship in the masonry graded from poor to excellent, joist anchorage inadequate, bond beams over second story windows in some cases were two feet below roof joists, and the roof construction resting on brick walls carried above the bond beam. [6. Board Minutes, April 17, 1933.]

Some of the damages reported and some of the repairs and mitigations taken:

  • All of the buildings were structurally braced to withstand shocks greater than those occurring in 1933 at the quake's center, the Long Beach area.
  • The high gabled roofs were replaced with modern shockproof, deck-type roofing.
  • By removing much of the dangerous "gingerbread"
  • and reinforcing all of the bearing walls with steel then coating the outside with stucco, these buildings took on an appearance of modern architecture. [66. Beach Cities Labor Journal, Santa Monica Schools Edition, Oct. 1937, p. 2.], 1952, 1933, 1930s

The Crown Point-Belcher Mine, 1943, 1880s, 1870s

  • (See The Belcher-Crown Point)

The Crown Point Mine, Bonanza, 1980, 1966, 1943, 1880s, 1872, 1870s 1966, 1943, 1878, 1874, 1873, 1871, 1870, 1870s, 1920-1850

  • April 7th 1869 Mine Fire in which 37 miners died, 1943, 1869
  • Three adjoining mines (the Crown Point, the Kentuck, and the Yellow Jacket) were working on the same east ore bodies from the 600-to- the 900-foot level, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

And their extensive stopes were a maze of large resinous pine timbers, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

The fire, of unknown origin, started on the 800-foot level of the Yellow Jacket and had been burning for several hours without knowledge owing to heavy doors in the drifts, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

When the men on the morning shift were lowered down the shafts a mass of charred timbers in the stopes broke under the weight of the roof, sending a blast of deadly gas and smoke through the workings of the three mines, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

A few were hoisted back, many were suffocated, and others burned . . . three days . . . heroic efforts were made to reach the remaining men. When it became clear that all below were dead and that not even their bodies could be recovered at that time, the shafts were sealed,1943, 1869, 1920-1850      

The last descent into the Crown Point prior to the second sealing of the shaft was made on April 12 (the fire occurred on the 7th) by Superintendent Jones and a young man who tried to connect a pipe with the blower tube. Foul air drove them out after fifteen minuets without making the connection, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

After the shafts were sealed large volumes of steam were forced into the workings to check the fire, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

Those mines, which had been among the most productive on the Lode, were practically ruined. The caved stopes smouldered for months and yielded but little good ore afterward, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

Instead of paying dividends all three mines began to levy assessments, 1943, 1869, 1920-1850

The Crown Point-Belcher bonanza was an ideal ore body, 1943, 1870s

Its ore body extended into the Belcher Mine Claim and became the Belcher Lode, Bonanza, 1980, 1966, 1943, 1920-1850

Paid more in dividends than they collected in assessments, 1943, 1920-1850

Mine Superintendent and U.S, Senator from Nevada John Percival (J.P.) Jones, 1980, 1966, 1943, 1920, 1850

While the stock market and [p. 128] the assessment system have much to answer for, it should be remembered that neither the Crown Point nor the Con. Virginia bonanza would have been discovered without their aid, 1943, 1870

Controlled by J.P. Jones and A. Hayward, 1943, 1870s,

Made private milling profits running into the millions, 1943, 1870s

The [1871] discovery of the Crown Point bonanza created another wild market, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

Crown Point stock rose quietly from $3 a share on November 19 to $16 on December 10. The market price of Belcher, meantimes, had increased to $7.50 a share. Development work proceeded slowly for a time and the reports were not very encouraging, due no doubt to the plans of Hayward and Jones who were aiming to secure control, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

"Jones' sick baby" was given as one of the excuses, which later became a byword on "The Street" in San Francisco. Jones, who was without means, induced some San Francisco speculators to buy stock for him "upon his agreement to bear all the losses in consideration of one half of the possible profits." Later, he advised these men to sell, "although assuring them of his firm belief in the mine . . . They regarded his story as a lame pretense," and began to sell short, which later cost them dear, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

The ore had been found only 200 feet north of the Belcher line, and, as it lay on the footwall of the Lode, there was every probability that it would extend into the Belcher. That stock also began to rise, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

Mine Superintendent Jones conspired with Alvinza Hayward to take control of the Crown Point Mine away from Ralston, Mills and Sharon,1943, 1871, 1920-1850

Sharon was bitter when he learned that Jones and Hayward had the control of the Crown Point, but made the best of the situation: "He proposed to sell to Hayward and his friends all the shares of himself and friends in the Crown Point mine, at the market price, on condition that Hayward and his friends would sell to them all of their interests in the Belcher." The offer was accepted and the transaction closed. Lord states on the authority of Sharon that Sharon sold his 4,100 shares of Crown Point to Hayward on June 7, 1871, for $1,400,000, which would be at the rate of $341 a share. This was by far the largest single transaction in Comstock stocks up to that time, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

"Both companies [Crown Point and Belcher] are digging pell-mell to see which can produce the most in the shortest time. Belcher now produces nearly 500 tons of ore daily, and is making preparations to produce between 500 and 600 tons. Furthermore, workings of this style on the Comstock have taught us what result to expect." (U.S. Mines and Mining for 1872, p. 118). Raymond was critical of the Comstock practice of "gutting the mines.", 1943, 1871

The so-called "Boom of 1872," when 150 stocks on the board made such remarkable advances from January to May 1872, was a man-made affair, manipulated by Alvinza Hayward, who deliberately and openly boosted Savage stock from $62 to $725 a share on the pretense that a rich discovery had been made in the mine. The market followed as a matter of course, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

"The stocks of the Crown Point and the Belcher had hung around $300 a share during the latter half of 1871, and were worth it. All of the others on the exchange had advanced with them, but there was no boom until after the first of January 1872. the developments in Crown Point and Belcher by that time were so favorable that all of the other stocks began to increase rapidly in price, 1943, 1872

Sharon ran against Jones for U.S. Senator. During the campaign he accused Jones of setting the Yellow Jacket fire. Jones won the election, going on to serve for thirty years in the U.S. Senate, 1943, 1871, 1920-1850

Lord . . . says that because of Sharon's charge against Jones, Crown Point shares fell to one eighteenth of their former price and hurried on a general fall in mining stocks, overlooking the fact that on May 15 the capital stock of Crown Point was increased from 12,000 to 100,000 shares (8 1/3 for 1), which left the price $100 a share. A few weeks later it rose to $135. Belcher was increased from 10,400 to 104,000 on August 1, 1872, and fell to $108 a share, which led innocent writers to comment on the extraordinary decline in prices,1943, 1872

The boundary line between the two mines [the Crown Point and the Belcher] passed downward through the middle of the bonanza, dividing it into two nearly equal parts. The Belcher's portion proved richer and more productive so that the trade eventually favored Sharon and his associates, Ralston and Mills [over Hayward and Jones.] In addition to the lion's share of the dividends, each group made private milling profits running into the millions, 1943, 1870s

W.C. Ralston, William Sharon and family, Michael Reese, Mr. Gensi (special agent of the Rothschilds), Mr. Newlands, Daniel C. Gilman (President of the University of California), Stephen Franklin (Secretary of the Bank of California), ex-Mayor Thomas H. Selby, Mr. Seward (U.S. Consul at China). The party visited the Crown Point and Belcher mines and departed for Lake Tahoe. (Gold Hill News, July 5, 1873)],1943, 1873

Superintendent J.P. Jones, Annual May 1, 1873-1870 Crown Point Mine Report, U.S. Mineral Resources for 1873, 1943

The mine was at its best during the year ending May 1, 1874, when 145,129 tons yielded $7,307,258, or $51.11 a ton, from which $5,300,000 was paid in dividends, 1943, 1870s

[p. 175] "[Footnote: King's History of San Francisco Stock Exchange, p. 153 (1910): The only stocks that had not materially advanced in price [during the 1874-75 boom] were the Crown Point and the Belcher, and they were the only mines on the Lode that were paying dividends with the exception of the Con. Virginia. Evidently they had not been manipulated.], 1943, 1910, 1875, 1874

[p. 135] "The aftermath of the Hayward-Jones friendship, according to the Virginia Evening Chronicle of December 12, 1874, was a quarrel over the Crown Point, in which Jones prevailed. "Now Jones and Hayward are at swords' points. They are even more bitter in their hatred of each other than Sharon and Jones ever were.", 1943, 1874

[p. 137] "During the period, 1870-1878 the Crown Point produced 725,000 tons, yielding $25,877,000, or $35.70 a ton, and paid $10,740,000 in dividends. The mine was at its best during the year ending May 1, 1874, when 145,129 tons yielded $7,307,258, or $51.11 a ton, from which $5,300,000 was paid in dividends, 1943, 1870s

The Crown Point-Belcher bonanza brought millions to John P. Jones, Alvinza Hayward, William Sharon, William C. Ralston, and D.O. Mills,1943, 1870s

"Footnote: Comstock mines during the past three years have been steadily increasing the yield from low-grade ores extracted from old workings in the upper levels; no dividends being paid, but nearly all steadily levying assessment. Of course there is no profit in the business on that basis," says the Mining and Scientific Press of December 27, 1884, "and yet most of those interested in the operations of these mines manage to get a profit out of them by ownership of the mills that crush the ore, 1943, 1884, 1890-1882, 1920-1850

[p. 285] "The Belcher and the Crown Point, controlled by the Jones interests, and the Yellow Jacket, by the Sharon interests, reduced 750,000 tons of ore averaging $12 a ton, mill returns, during the eight years following 1882, but only to the advantage of their mills. No dividends were paid, but on the contrary a few assessments were levied when the mill returns failed to pay the expense of mining and milling. Such of the other mines as could find a little ore were producing on the same basis, 1943, 1890-1882, 1920-1850

In 1916, the adult education program was taken over by the high school and was supervised by the high school principal [W.F. Barnum], 1952, 1916

  • Subjects were added to the program as the need arose, the heaviest demand being in the commercial subjects and the manipulative skills; i.e., shop work, sewing and millinery, ceramics, weaving, and mechanical drawing. [57. Personal interview with Elmer M. Krehbiel, May 28, 1951; Santa Monica, California.], 1952, 1916
  • More recently classes in many other areas have been added to the adult education program at the request of individuals in the community. 1952, 1951
  • Some of these are upholstering, jewelry making, driver education, minerals and gems, public speaking, hooked rug making, and wood carving, 1952, 1951
  • The adult education program offers classes in orchestra, civic opera, community chorus, civic band, and vocational orchestra. [58. Bulletin of Information and Announcement of Courses, 1950-51, Santa Monica: Santa Monica City College, 1951, pp. 74-77.], 1952, 1951
  • In 1918, The Red Cross sewing class at Santa Monica High numbered 216 participants, the largest class in the history of the school, 1952, 1919, 1918
  • Santa Monica High's total enrollment dropped to 455, with chemistry the most popular study of that period, and home gardening also proving to be an important interest. [63. Pearl, op. cit., p. 97], 1952, 1918, 1917

Since June 1951, driver education has become a requirement for graduating and must be taken by all student in the junior and senior years. [69. Student's Manual, p. 10.], 1952, 1951

Currently, the subjects of the high school are divided into eleven departments: art, business, English, foreign languages, homemaking, mathematics, mechanical arts, music, physical education, science, and the social studies, 1952

The high school program prepares the student for entrance into college or university, specific courses being offered as preparatory to advanced study in such fields as architecture, agriculture, art, business administration, dentistry, home economics, law, librarianship, medicine, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, physical education, science and mathematics, and teaching. [70. Ibid., pp. 13-14.], 1952

Junior High classes in grammar, spelling, and composition, 1952, 1914

Americanization classes were started in the new Garfield school for entering pupils who spoke little or no English, 1952, 1933

In these special classes as much academic work was given as seemed profitable to the children; but emphasis was placed upon handwork and physical activity, and careful attention was given to the formation of desirable habits and attitudes, 1952, 1933

The general instructional program was expanded to include worthwhile activities in the practical arts, 1952, 1933

The boys worked in the woodshop on simple construction projects and did considerable furniture repair, 1952, 1933

The girls were taught cooking and sewing in their domestic science classes, 1952, 1933

Both boys and girls participated in activities involving weaving, basketry, and gardening, 1952, 1933

Prior to 1937, vocational classes were included in the program of the Santa Monica Evening High School; but upon the establishment in that year of the Santa Monica Technical School, such courses were offered there, 1952, 1937

Santa Monica Junior College offered two types of curricula: one to prepare students for entrance into a university upon their graduation from junior college; the other, of a semi-professional nature, to satisfy the needs of students wishing to complete a year or two of schooling beyond the high school level before seeking employment. [69. Ralph H. Bush Santa Monica Junior College Annual Report, 1930; in files of the Santa Monica Board of Education, p. 2.]

At the time of consolidation, Within the three divisions of Santa Monica City College, provision is made for all types of classes that will meet the needs and the desires of the adults of the community. How successfully they are doing this is indicated, in part, by the many requests each year for additional classes and the waiting lists that much be established each year in many subjects. But it is recognized that the measure of service an adult education program can render a community is limited only by the support which the community itself gives to that program, thus making it possible continually to widen the scope of work offered. In Santa Monica, this is the purpose for which the adult education program exists, 1952, 1945

In July of 1945, when all post-high-school education in Santa Monica was administratively consolidated to for a city college, [76. See discussion supra, p. 195.] the junior college became the General Division of the new organization. Its curriculum continued to provide for both college-preparatory and terminal students, and the opportunity to complete the first two years of university work at less expense and while living at home. [77. Bulletin of Information . . . 1951-52, p. 24.]

The second division of the City College, the Santa Monica Technical School, provides education and training for students wishing immediate placement in employment. The purpose of the Technical Division of the City College is:

"1. To encourage and develop social and economic competence; an appreciation of the dignity and importance of trade and industrial skills; and the ability to do a worth-while job effectively.

"2. To provide educational experience that will help the individual to select, prepare for, enter, and progress in an occupation." [78.Bulletin of Information . . . 1951-52, p. 71.]

With the increase in industry throughout Santa Monica since World War II, there is an urgent need for the training of students with salable skills.

The Adult Education Division, the third component of the Santa Monica City College, has been discussed in an earlier part of this chapter. [79. Missing. Supra.], 1952
