ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, MAY 20. 1871. Remarks of the Mayor and Mayor Elect. The following communications were read before the old and new City Councils, on Monday, May 8, 1871: To the Hon. the Common Council of the City of Anaheim; GENTLEMEN:—Our term of office having expired, we are here for the purpose of delivering our trust in the hands of our successors, chosen by the will of our fellow citizens. You, gentlemen of the Common Council, know best that you, as well as myself, have been actuated but by the one desire of promoting the interest and welfare of our community. The City labored under many unavoidable expenses and considerable disadvantages, during the first eight months of its organization. The expenses we have curtailed, and the funds of our City husbanded to our best ability. Allow me to make acknowledgement for the disinterested eagerness with which you have discharged the duties of your office, and believe me, that whenever opportunity offers, all my endeavors and exertions shall be regulated by the common good. Before taking leave, with your permission, I would recommend to the Hon. Mayor and Common Council elect, not only to look sight of, but to aid with all their power, a matter dear to our citizens, coveted by all our neighborhood, and of the most essential magnitude to the future importance of our city—the division of the County of Los Angeles. With a sincere desire for the prosperity of Anaheim City, I remain, gentlemen, very respectfully, Your Obedient Servant, MAX STROBEL, Late Mayor of Anaheim City. To the Hon. the Common Council of the To the Hon. the Common Council of the City of Anaheim: GENTLEMEN: — We are assembled here by the direct wish and will, of the voters of our City, expressed and demonstrated by the result of our municipal election on Monday last. It is no more than right that we should embrace this first opportunity to express our thanks and appreciation of the honor and trust conferred upon us by our fellow citizens. Let us assure them at the same time that it shall be our only aim, and that it is our fixed resolution, to prove worthy of their confidence and to conduct the affairs of our city in such a manner as will be compatible with the true interest, progress and prosperity of its community. The expenses of our city government, are indeed trailing while the benefits derived from the corporation are various and full of import. Our city is surrounded by the largest and surely most available body of agricultural land in the state of California. No portion of it is coast has a tougher or more positive future before it. Our commercial and political relations are growing in consequence from day to day. Questions may arise, which would make the want of a body corporate almost disastrous to our welfare. Therefore, being true to our constituents, the city government, which we have the honor to represent, can but result in advantage and benefit to us all. As there is no building to be erected during the coming year, and no other improvements to be made, are obvious at the present day, even the salary of the Marshal having already been reduced, it will be in the power of your honorable body to reduce the tax of last year very materially. In this manner, all of our citizens may enjoy the privileges of the corporation without being distressed by whatever trivial burden there may be attached to it. And, gentlemen, in approving the acts of the first Mayor of our city, the Hon. Max Strobel, and thanking him in the name of our citizens, for his untiring efforts to promote the common interest, I believe I do but anticipate your wishes. And now allow me once more to assesess the solemnities of the funeral. But a few days since the deceased was perfect health. His disease was pleasantly with which he was suddenly attacked. He had the best medical aid in the county, included Dr. Hardin of Anaheim, and Drs. Griffin and Den, Los Angeles. Following are the names of the bearers, who were chosen from among those who were the most intimate with the deceased: Theodore Rimpau, Obey Macy, Dye Davies, Peter Richards, S. Davis, Charles Switzer, N. H. Mitchel and E.I. Polhemus. During the funeral which was largely attended, the flag on the Planters' and at Richards' well at half-mast.

Craigue, E.q., San Diego, Inspector and Grand Leverer for the Fifth Masonic District of California, accompanied by A. C. Williams of Los Angeles, and N. A. Boone of Wilmington, was in town on Saturday last, in close communion with the Masons of this city. VIEWS.—Previous to the departure Mr. W. A. Vale, for San Bernardino, took some very fine street views of Anaheim. Among them were pictures of the Planters' Hotel, and the residences of Dr. Hardin and J. Keiller. Attending them, we conclude that Anaheim looks almost as well on paper as to the natural eye. FINISHING UP.—The finishing touch are being given to the new Richard Hall An elegant platform and veranda is being placed around its front and when all is done, it will reflect not only great credit upon Anaheim, but also the architect who has had charge Yours Very Respectfully. H. Kroeger. Anaheim May 5th, 1871. An Insane Man. Last Monday evening, as Mr. D. K. Williams was about entering the gate leading from the street to his residence, he was suddenly attacked by a man, who had partly concealed himself in the shade of some trees. Mr. Williams resisted the attack, and was scuffling with his assailant, when the noise attracted several citizens, who approached and seized the assailing party. City Marshal Hill then took charge of the man, who gave every indication of being insane. He was recognized by a citizen to be II. C. Smith, of Livermore Valley, Alameda county, and is said to have been a member of the Legislature of 1851-52. While in jail, Mr. Smith tried to choke himself, by placing two large handkerchiefs in his mouth. He was very violent, and managed with difficulty by the Marshal. On the road to Los Angeles, whither he was conveyed, he repeatedly stated that the Lord was after him in a balloon, and that he wanted to go back. He is to be conveyed to Stockton. Mr. Phil Davis returned from San Francisco yesterday. His family met him at Wilmington. Gov. Safford, of Arizona, was in town on Tuesday, homeward bound from Washington. Alfred Barstow, Special Agent of the P.O. Department, arrived on the steamer California. A. B. Chapman, Esq., Dr Griffin, Dr. Den and Mr. Metzker, of Los Angeles, were in town during the week.
