The California Powder Works
[The California Powder Works was incorporated in 1861 and began manufacturing powder in May 1864. The
company ceased operating in Santa Cruz in 1914. For fifty years, it was a major employer in the county,
employing between 150 and 275 men. The Powder Works was located on a flat, which came to be known as
Powder Mill Flats, adjacent to the San Lorenzo River, three miles north of the Bay.
The following is an excerpt from "Santa Cruz County; a faithful reproduction in print and photography of its
climate, capabilities, and beauties." 1896. pp. 26 and 27. – editor]
The California Powder Works, situated on the San Lorenzo River two and a half miles north of the city of Santa Cruz,
have been for thirty years the chief industrial feature of the county. They were established for the purpose of supplying
the Pacific Coast with blasting powder for mining and railroad work, and with sporting and military powders. But in
process of time dynamite replaced blasting powder for the most
part, and brown and smokeless powders superseded black
gunpowder.
In these improvements the California Powder Works rather led,
until they comprised six distinct plants, every one of them on a
scale worthy of an independent company. These are:
1. The original black powder mills.
2. Dynamite works at Pinole, on the bay of San Francisco.
3. Gun cotton works at Pinole.
Workmen at the California Powder Works, 1901.

Natural History.
4. Brown prismatic powder works at Santa Cruz.
5. Smokeless powder works at Santa Cruz.
6. A cartridge factory at Santa Cruz. The quality of the goods turned out at these works is made apparent by the
light of these facts:
1
�1. The black blasting powder is valued, wherever used, at twenty-five cents per keg more than any other powder of its
kind.
2. Dynamite.--Three-fifths of all the dynamite consumed west of the Rocky Mountains is manufactured and sold by the
California Powder Works under the name of HERCULES POWDER, besides an immense quantity exported to countries
bordering on the Pacific Ocean, -all honest goods, containing the percentage of nitroglycerine purported by its marks.
3. Gun cotton, the basis of smokeless powders, and for torpedoes, etc., is made by the hydro-cellulose process, which
alone permits perfect nitration of the fibre. This process is followed only at these works, although known to all chemists
and approved by them. The "hank" process is followed at other works because it is easier.
4. Brown prismatic powder for high-power breech-loading cannon. --Of this the press invented by Mr. William C. Peyton,
Assistant Superintendent of the works, delivers up prisms of powder of absolutely uniform specific gravity. This enables
the artillerist to calculate with precision the effect of every shot, and is so much esteemed by the Government that it has
delivered, at the company's proving ground, an equipment of modern guns for use in the testing of the powder before
its acceptance for service. All the powder required for the Pacific and Asiatic fleets of United States ships, and for Pacific
harbor and coast defense, is obtained from these works.
5. Smokeless powder.--When the Krag-Jorgensen .30 calibre rifle was adopted by the United States Army, the Ordnance
Corps procured samples of all the smokeless powders manufactured in Europe and America for competitive tests. The
sample offered by the California Powder Works under the name of PEYTON POWDER was judged to be the best of all,
and from that time to this the Peyton Powder, made at Santa Cruz and transported across the continent, has been
exclusively employed in the manufacture of cartridges for the new weapon. Its properties are fully described in the
Ordnance Reports. The same powder has proved equally efficacious for field artillery, and its adaptation to the heavier
calibres is now being carried out.
6. Smokeless shotgun powder.--After four years of study and experimentation this has recently been perfected in a
powder called C. P. W. SMOKELESS, upon which the company bases its reputation when the cartridges are loaded at
their factory, or rightly loaded elsewhere. Cartridges are so loaded for two uses: those for clay-pigeon trap shooting are
known as NATIVE SON CARTRIDGES; the others are used for live birds at the trap and for field shooting. No sportsman
shooting a Native Son cartridge, with aim straight at the pigeon, fails to bring it down, nor does he, after once using the
Native Son, ever trust another brand. This powder has an equally good reputation in nitro shells for general field
purpose. In quickness it is unexampled, with never a "hang-fire," whilst for safety, pattern, penetration and cleanliness it
is unsurpassed.
The California Powder Works are rated as second to none in Europe or America, whether the magnitude of their
operations be considered, or their skillful use of the best knowledge of their art; and it is certain that their high position
in the manufacturing world will never be lightly surrendered.
The California Powder Works are very fortunate in respect to location. The canyon of the San Lorenzo supplies them
with an abundance of wood and water, and their proximity to the sea and to the railway gives them the requisite
facilities of transportation.

An index to newspaper and periodical articles from a variety of Santa Cruz publications.
It is a collection of over 87,000 articles, primarily from the <em>Santa Cruz Sentinel</em>, that have been clipped and filed in subject folders. While these articles of local interest range in date from the early 1900's to the present, most of the collection and clipped articles are after roughly 1960. There is an ongoing project to scan the complete articles and include them in this collection.<br /><br />Also included are more than 350 full-text local newspaper articles on films and movie-making and on the Japanese-American internment.<br /><br /> In addition, this is an online index for births, deaths, and personal names from <em>The Mountain Echo.</em> The complete print index is available at the library. For more information see <a href="https://history.santacruzpl.org/omeka/items/show/134957#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0">The Mountain Echo</a>.
