York To San Francisco In 1849: Reuben Lucius Goldberg was born in San Francisco on July 4, 1883. After graduating from the University of California, in 1904, he drew sports cartoons for San Francisco newspapers until 1907 and for the New York to San Francisco in 1849 Evening Mail from 1907 to 1921. He started syndication work in 1915, developing such features as "Boob Mc-Nutt," "Foolish Questions," and "Crazy Inventions." From 1938 he did editorial cartoons for the New York to San Francisco in 1849 Sun and then for the New York to San Francisco in 1849 Journal American.
living in New Orleans for a few years, moved to California in 1849. He was a •uninent member of its constitutional conven-n. and represented the new state in the U S ate (1850-1855, 1857-1861). He advocated transcontinental railroad and is credited with
establishing the San Francisco mint. Favoring the South during the Civil War, he made a vain attempt to induce Napoleon III to colonize New Mexico with Confederate settlers. He died in obscurity in New York to San Francisco in 1849 City on Sept. 3, 1885.

Food and supplies were almost nonexistent in the gold fields, and commanded high prices. Flour worth $5 or $6 a barrel in New York to San Francisco in 1849 fetched 10 times as much, with other items in the same generous proportion. |
