Cahfornia alone was worth many times the cost of the Mexican War. To say nothing of anything else, its gold has already put into the pockets of the American people a great deal more money than they paid out in fight- ing Mexico. To say nothing about Texas, the present 110 Our Meocican Conflicts wealth, in real estate and personal property, of the territory won by the war with Mex- ico — that is to say, of Utah, Arizona, Ne- vada, New Mexico, the half of Colorado, the southwest corner of Kansas ...and California — aggregates over $3,000,000,000— THREE THOUSAND MILLION DOLLARS— a result that amply justifies the expenditure of $130,000,000 in 1846-47. And it should not be overlooked that the great States mentioned are but just begin- ning their career. Irrigation and the " dry farming " idea will eventually make the re- gion which in the forties was known as the " Great American Desert " blossom like a tropical garden and teem with every con- ceivable form of agricultural and horticul- tural wealth.
