Excerpt from A History of California and an Extended History of Its Southern Coast Counties, Vol. 1 of 2: Also Containing Biographies of Well-Known Citizens of the Past and Present
When Kansas and Nebraska were uninhabited except by buffaloes and Indians, California was a populous. State pouring fifty millions of gold yearly into the world's coffers. For more than a quarter of'a century these states, from their public funds, have maintained state historical societies that have gathered and are preserving valuable historical material, while California, without a protest, has allowed literary pot hunters and speculative curio collectors to rob her of her historical treasures. When Washington, Montana and the two Dakotas were Indian hunt ing grounds, California was a state of a quarter million inhabitants; each of these states now has its State Historical Society supported by appropriations from its public funds.
