ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 1871. MERITING OF FARMERS. On Wednesday last, a large number of the farmers of Anaheim Township collected at the Planters' Hotel, in this city, to arrange some plan of united action against the stock-range curse, with which they have been so long afflicted. The meeting was organized by the calling of Mr. J. B. Stone to preside, and Mr. M.W. Kerns, Secretary. A committee on resolutions was appointed, after which the meeting adjourned until Thursday evening, at the office of justice Davis. On Thursday evening, about one hundred and fifty outside men—nearly all of whom have grain growing, with out fences, and within sight of Stearn's untied and unwatched wild horses—gathered at the place designated, and with a determination that admits of but one interpretation, passed and signed the following preamble and resolutions: WHEREAS, We, the citizens of Anaheim precinct (or township), have bought our lands in good faith from the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company, under contracts from said Company requiring all residents upon said lands to keep up their stock, and not allow the same to run at large, and WHEREAS, We regard the act of the Legislature of the State of California entitled "An Act to Protect Agreements," as being valid. SESSION of Jan. 9, 1870. At the meeting of the Council on the day of the above date, there were present—John Fischer, President; and sound cilmen Zayn, Champlin and Krosjer. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. Reports were received from Mayor Marshal, Finance Committee and City Treasurer. The latter showed a balance on hand of $184. Bill of Knox & Ramble for surveying Walnut street, was allowed and ordered paid. Bill of O. B. Peck & Co., for building jail, not amount $365, was received and referred to the Finance Committee. The Judiciary committee were granted fourteen days in which to report doctrines and horse ordinances. The Mayor and City Clerk were authorized to procure a suitable desk, in which to place books and papers of the Council, and Mayor's Court. On motion, an ordinance was passed fixing the hour of meeting at 3 o'clock P.M., and that the Council meet once on the second and fourth Monday of each month. On motion, the meeting adjourned. WAYLAID.—As Mr. Bigger was driving from Anaheim to Los Angeles lately, he was overtaken near Los Niños by three men, one on foot and two others mounted. The footman instantly insisted on riding with him; when Mr. Bigger attempted to drive faster, in order to avoid him, the two men caught the briskening of his vehicle. Whereas, We, the citizens of Anaheim precinct (or township), have bought our lands in good faith from the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company, under contracts from said Company requiring all residents upon said lands to keep up their stock, and not allow the same to run at large, and Whereas, We regard the act of the Legislature of the State of California entitled "An Act to Protect Agreements and Prevent the Trespass of Citizens upon Private Property, April 20th, 1806," and the amendments approved March 20th, 1870, of its importance to the citizens of this precinct (or township), and Whereas, Abel Stearns, one of the members of said Land Company, has utterly disregarded the obligations and duties imposed upon him as a member of said Land Company, by allowing his horses to run over our farms and destroy our crops, thereby robbing us of the fruits of our labor, therefore be it. Resolved, That if the above mentioned trespass law cannot be sustained and made applicable to this section of the country, for which it was intended, we must and will protect ourselves. Resolved, That Don Abel Stearns and all others be and they are hereby notified to remove all horses from this vicinity, within ten days from the date hereof, or a committee of one hundred able-bodied men will be appointed to dispose of the same. To this and we pledge our lives, our property and our sacred honor. Resolved, that the foregoing resolutions meet the approbation and has the approval of all the citizens of Anaheim Township. Adopted unanimously, and signed by 130 citizens. Anaheim, January 12, 1871. The Rain.—We have had a rain during the week, which commenced on Tuesday and continued all day. The clouds appeared to pass over in streaks, and many of the heavier ones kept to the right or left of Anaheim. Mr. W. R. Olden, three miles outside the city, measured one-fourth of an inch of rain. Busy Week.—Trade has been unusually active in our city during the past week. The streets have been filled with the wagons of farmers, many of them coming from Los Nietos and that vicinity, to purchase here. We hope that our merchants will sell at such rates, as will continue to induce trade. Waylaid.—As Mr. Bigger was driving from Anaheim to Los Angeles lately, he was overtaken near Los Nietos by three men, one on foot and two others mounted. The footman instantly insisted on riding with him; when Mr. Bigger attempted to drive faster, in order to avoid him, the two men caught the briskening of his buggy. Mr. Biggler drew his revolver, at the moment of which the whole troop of rails took to flight. It is well for our citizens to carry, when on the long road to Los Angeles, such "patent persons" as will insure the safety their lives. Grand Banquet —On Tuesday in Messrs Hubbard & Hunter, of the U.S. Exchange, opened their new House by sumptuous public dinner; and one who was availed of by at least a hundred best citizens. The well arranged table fairly groaned under the weight of the well-seasoned turkey, game, and pastry, prepared in the highest style of the cuisine art. Nobody went away hungry from that feast, oven to the batch (that was us) at the third tab. Los Nietos Vigilantes —The following notice has been issued by the strolling citizens of Los Nietos; and the mean it, "and more to": NOTICE is hereby given to all parties owning stock running loose on Santa Gertrudes Rancho, that, inasmuch as we have found the law insufficient prevent trespassing, we the V. C. Los Nietos shall take effect until we rid ourselves of the Mustang nature. By order of Executive Committee. SECRETARY NO. Upper Santa Ana Ditch.—The survey of the Santa Ana Ditch, commencing about one mile above the Peral House and running to the Santiago Creek, is now completed, the distance being about ten miles. The construction of the ditch, under the supervision of Mr. Baily, is progressing rapidly. The idea entertained by C. B. Chuhan, Esq., of running a tunnel through the hills, and thus saving a distance about onemile, has been abandoned owing to the expense, and the ample R. Olden, three miles outside the city, measured one-fourth of an inch of rain. BUSY WEEK.—Trade has been unusually active in our city during the past week. The streets have been filled with the wagons of farmers, many of them coming from Los Nietos and that vicinity, to purchase here. We hope that our merchants will sell at such rates, as will continue to induce trade in this direction. THE NEW STORE.—The new general merchandise store of M. Calisher, Esq., on the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets (the principal corner in town), was, during the week, filled in with goods and completely occupied. The building has been compactly and quickly built by Mr. Eckels, one of the best mechanics in the city; and the neat and attractive interior fixtures and arrangements of the store, are likewise due to his skill and thorough workmanship. Mr. Calisher is already beginning to feel the invigorating effect of the increased trade, resulting from his new location; and as all his purchasers are treated with due respect and attention, and furnished with goods at low cash prices; so it is the wish of all that his now enterprise be rewarded with the utmost measure of success. U.S. EXCHANGE.—Our readers who live at a distance, and have occasion to visit Anaheim, and who would like a good square meal at a fair price, will find what will satisfy the top, bottom and sides of a hungry man's chest, at the U.S. Exchange. The place has been fitted up with a view to meet the wants of the people, and every attention and courtesy will be paid to those who call. San Francisco Presence Market Report.

Ran Away—a few days since, on the Los Angeles road a mule team hitched to a heavy wagon broke away from its owner a Los Nietosian and brought suddenly up against a telegraph pole which it raised out of the ground about three feet and threw it a distance of ten feet from its original place splitting it and knocking insulators and wires off. This caused a stoppage of telegraph news to Anaheim for a short time. The mules were knocked down by the congression, but not otherwise uninjured. Our friend of the corn district, should have fixed up the wires again as they were the means of saving his team. General Merchandise.
