Welcome Rain.

By Editor

THE drouth, so long continued, and which was already having a depressing effect on business in California, was broken on Sunday night. Much wheat that looked badly will no doubt recover. In the soil and climate of California wheat will bear almost as much hardship as weeds, and we now look for a fair crop. Reports of the fruit prospect are favorable, business will now revive generally. In Oakland there is more building being done this season than at any other time for several years. The principal improvements noticeable in San Francisco are in the line of laying cables for street cars. The work on these is fast progressing on Market, Mc-Allister, and some other streets.
