Despite the title, this was basically a Theosophical journal with much filler on local California color. No editor is listed for the first twelve months but it was probably edited from San Francisco by Anderson, who handed the post in July 1892 to Louisa A. Off ( - 1895) (and Marie A. Walsh) in Los Angeles. Contributions by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, Joaquin Miller, J.D. Buck, et al. Anderson went on to edit the Pacific Theosophist. The contents of the journal, prepared by the Australian Theosophical Society, are now online at http://www.austheos.org.
