An interview notes Californians fleeing San Francisco due to the new constitution’s taxes and legal risks on mining property. It cites Robert Horton and others, including George Delley and the Belden family, as examples of those seeking local entanglements elsewhere. In Nevada and Oregon, similar talks of migration and economic hardship surface, while crime, legal cases, and political tensions ripple through Sacramento, Chicago, and Dublin.
