Soft cover. Condition: VG. 4pp extract, printed in double columns, salvaged from a damaged issue of The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine, Volume XXXIX, No. 3, January, 1890. Open Letters section. From the opening paragraph, "At the meeting, in June last, of the commissioners who manage the Yosemite Valley, a project was set…afoot to obtain from the National Government the grant of a large addition to the land now held in trust by the State of California under the act of 1864, deeding to that State the Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Big Tree Grove. The plan to extend the grant is at this writing not worked out in detail. There is, however, a most pertinent and important questionw which offers itself pari passu with the general idea of a widening of the limits of the grant. It is this: Has the past management of the Yosemite Valley been good or bad?" Housed in protective mylar report cover.
