The first excerpt mentioned how the <em>"Pacific Coast ... situated at a distance of nearly two thousand miles from the Missouri River ... comprised trackless plains, almost impenetrable ranges of snow-capped mountains, and parched alkali deserts."</em> Likewise, the second excerpt talked of California as <em>"the jewel of the Pacific"</em>, possessing <em>"great natural wealth and unsurpassed climate and fertility"</em>.
