Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. lxvii, 760 pages : illustrations ; 29 cm OCLC 52073501 This reprint of the first edition of Sweet's Catalog commemorates the 90th anniversary of the Sweet's business."--Foreword ; "In offering to the public, and especially to the architects of the United States, the first edition of Sweet's Indexed Catalogue of Building Construction, the publishers have realized at the very outset the importance of stating clearly, first, what the book is, and secondly, the reasons for commending it to the architectural profession for their use and support. .to explain in a few words the character and purpose of the work, . a embodied in these first successful efforts toward a really scientific standard catalogue and index of building materials and construction. Let the matter be looked at entirely from the point of view of the architect. For a period of a dozen years, every possible method of collecting, sorting, classifying, filing and indexing all the catalogues and circulars of building materials was conscientiously given a fair trial, and after a thorough test, every method was just as conscientiously abandoned. They were abandoned because they did not work well in the specification room. They were not practicable. Everything was tried, arrangements of shelves, bookcases, pasteboard boxes, filing cases, patent binders, filing cabinets, cases of drawers, indexing schemes and " index- rerums. " At first, all the big books were put together in one place and all the little books in another place; and then all the big and little books were mixed up together, and indexed according to subject. Some had four pages, and some had four hundred pages. Barely two were of the same shape or superficies. The little ones would not stand up, and could not be gotten at when laid flat. Another elaborate system was introduced, and a voluminous cross-index started, but the big books contained too much useless matter, and the little books got lost or mislaid or could not be found just when wanted. Then the writer decided, after much time and expense, that the present system of publishing and distributing catalogues, as far as the architect is concerned, might be rightly termed " The Catalogue Delusion, " and that the only solution of the problem must lie in a scientific standard catalogue and index of building materials and construction, gradually developed toward an ideal result by the co-operation of manufacturer and architect. Briefly, then, what is Sweet's Indexed Catalogue of Building Construction? It is a scientific catalogue book system ( a volume or series of volumes) , as easy to refer to as a dictionary, consisting of groups of catalogues from which as much unnecessary matter as possible has been eliminated, carefully indexed and cross- indexed, and sent out gratuitously by the publishers to every architect of good standing. Each catalogue in the work is organically arranged in its parts. It proceeds in a regular order from fact " A " to fact " Z " . Illustrations of a certain class are all grouped and arranged according to some obvious plan. " Literature " and " mere writing " are omitted, as an architect has no time in his office for either."; authors and compilers include Wm. Martin Aiken, Claire Allen, J. M. Baillie, Charles I.

Condition: Overall excellent. Harry N. Morse (1835-1912) was born in New York and came to San Francisco in 1849 seeking gold. After several odd jobs he became a deputy provost marshal in Oakland in 1862, was elected Sheriff of Alameda County in 1863, and held this office for fourteen years before establishing his private detective service in San Francisco. Morse is known for the arrests and killings of numerous California outlaws, many of which Shinn's booklet treats in great detail (though with a focus on the Mexican-American contingent to the neglect of some of Morse's more notable successes, such as his role in the capture of Black Bart). The majority of the items in this archive concern Morse's late-career foray back into gold mining, first in Lewiston, California, and then in Applegate, Oregon. John Marchand was Morse's foreman in Lewiston, and generally writes to him about the failures of their Lewiston enterprise. Many of the difficulties are attributed to troubles with a steam shovel, though the claim itself turns out to be a dud. Marchand informs Morse near the end of their correspondence: "Things here I'm sorry to say have gone from bad to 'very bad'. Y'day I got down to 'bed-rock', uncovered a piece 46 by 10 ft and increadible as it may read there was not 30¢ in there, some pans in fact you could not get a color." (August 10, 1906) Morse then invests in a claim in Applegate, Oregon, with more success. The main setback in Applegate is that his mine is repeatedly sabotaged. His foreman, E.B. Hawkins, explains: "I realise things from this end must appear perhaps irregular or peculiar On or about the 17" of May the mine was dynamited I did not write you at that time because I thought I could catch up the ground in two or three days. It took nearer 20, and another thing you had sickness and later death in your family so I did not write about that first offence at all On June 17" we found the Star mine dynamited again good and plenty not less than 10 lbs of powder had been used for the job. They blew the h__l out of things, blew the top off of the shaft and the gallows frame awry. I am almost certain I would have succeeded had I had only natures elements to contend with. I don't know what in h__l will happen on the 17" of July This anarchy is beyond me. On the 17" of May I fired the distasteful element paying them off and I have fired the 17" of June element paying them off - I borrowed $50.00 from Jno. Pernoll to pay them there was 3 of them had not been working long". (June 19, 1907) Hawkins soon identifies the culprits: "On June 27" Jim Rock Sr. and Dick Rock came to me and offered to square the damages done at the star mine saying that if the mine was blasted their two boys were in on it On July 2" Dick Rock came to me and said his son Roy had confessed saying there were four in it namely, Harry Gething, Chas Brown, Young Jimmy Rock and Roy Rock (Dicks son) They had all been working at the star. On July 4" Roy Rock confirmed to me same as above saying Harry Gething was leader and young Jimmy Rock was helper that they had a jig of whiskey on the ground that night Jimmy Rock furnished the whiskey Strange to say that every time I have gotten ready to take a certain good block of ore out of the star the mine has been blasted (I propose to take that block of ore out if I live and can get grub while doing it)" (July 6, 1907) Hawkins has a few other confrontations with workers, though none this severe, and his letters are mainly providing Morse with in-depth updates on the status of the mine, including many of Hawkins' diagrams. The Star mine is never a roaring success, and the pair consider trying cyanide mining-"the salvation of southern Oregon" (1908)-and gravel mining in British Columbia. Of interest to historians of the post-Gold Rush west, especially gold mining therein. 160 total items.
