ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, MAY 27, 1871 The Division of the County. We have herefore spoken of the importance of a division of this County, and urged that ways must be taken to effect the desired object—desirable on account of convenience and economy. The County affairs, as they have been managed for years, display nothing but an expensive monopoly, which is unjust to every man south of the San Gabriel. By our enormous taxes, we foot the extravagant bills of officers that we have no voice in putting forward for election, as well as fat perquisites to a host of their extravagant retainers. County property is retained exclusively in the city of Los Angeles, as if that was a petted principality, (an item referred to, is the county fire-shose); and now our neighbors, fearing we are to obtain a division, have through their Board of Supervisors, issued $25,000 in county bonds for the building of a Court House. More than one-sixth of this sum must now be footed by people south of the San Gabriel; while if the county had been divided at the last session of the Legislature, we would have been saved that expense, and with less than half the amount, could have built a suitable Court House, at the new county seat, wherover it would have been located. In this section, we have no papers. A Country On Saturday last, probably surprised by the heism, of a party of from Los Angeles and joint overland to San places. Among the Jeff White, E.q., of Harazthy and lady of Mrs. Major Hancock ha Harazthy of Cooper and Mr William San Gabriel. The ex-servitors were kept with all appurtenances a rusticating tour, and Heathen Chance" came up the viands a few minutes after camp pitched their tents in favored groves; whereof of the mocking bird romance to the occasion. By special invitation by a friend dined at camp, and passed a fine evening, in pleasant They took up their Sunday morning, and that evening at Cap their intention to that Monday night, and on the following even proves not too tediousably return in their object of the journey ally is health and they cannot fail to musical, virtuous and practical dispositions of the party. must now be footed by people south of the San Gabriel; while if the county had been divided at the last session of the Legislature, we would have been saved that expense, and with less than half the amount, could have built a suitable Court House, at the new county seat, wherover it would have been located. In this section, we have no paupers and few criminals, but we are obliged to pay largely for the support of the paupers and criminals of the City of Los Angeles. The new county will need new officers, but these officers will be paid from the fees of their various offices, and will cause no direct expense to the county. We do not, by having a new county, intend to increase taxation, but to lessen it—And with a reduction of taxes will come a corresponding increase in the value of real estate—for one of the first questions asked by the new settler, is "the rate of taxation." Again, it would be impossible for the new county to manage its affairs worse than the old one has been managed. If we obtain a new county, all the money we now pay out in fees at Los Angeles and for traveling back and forth will be kept at home, and the wide spread of morance and prejudice against the valley south of the San Gabriel, will be done away with. San Diego and San Bernadino counties are asking for a division of the 17th judicial district; and it that is effected and a new county created here, it will make the then Judicial District of at least respectable size, and will not require the Judge to travel hundreds of miles through desolation and disease to hold his sessions. We ask the people's directly interested in this matter to give the subject careful thought, confident that their conclusions will accord with our own; and we ask of our neighbors to the north, to cut us loose, and thereby preserve the symmetry of their part of this overgrown and overtaxed county. New School.—The private School of L.M. Gaines Ecclesiastical school will New School.—The private School of J. M. Guinn, Esq., will commence on Monday next, the 29th instant. Council Meeting—The City Council meets to-day at 3 o'clock P.M. Walnut Orchard - Mr Heyerman has been busily engaged in clearing and irrigating cactus land, for the purpose of cultivating English walnuts, and German orchard fruits, and has accomplished a great deal in that line. He has now five hundred trees of walnuts well started, and a large number of other fruit trees planted in his new lot, which bid fair to yield a large profit in time. Disposed of. The case of Stearns vs. Ferguson, et al. which has, for so long a time hung fire at Los Angeles, has finally been decided by a jury in the District Court in favor of Stearns. We understand that our neighbor Ferguson is not disposed to give up the case, but will make a renewed demonstration. Serenado.—On Saturday night last a complimentary serenade was given to Phil Davis, Esq., of the Common Council, who had just returned from San Francisco, where he was at the time of his election. At Santa Ana, a club of citizens are forming to purchase a set of Artesian well-boring implements which, each may use in his turn. A Country Jaunt. On Saturday last, we were agreeably surprised by the entree into Anaheim, of a party of pleasure seeker from Los Angeles and vicinity, on an overland to San Diego, and way across. Among the number were T. White, Esq. of Los Angeles; Mr.razzhy and lady of Lake Vineyard; Major Hancock and Miss O'Kinnear-Hazzy of La Brea; Mr. Ikopper and Mr William Hereford, on the Gabriel. The excursionists were well equipped with all appurtenances requisite for instigating tour, and had a first-class train chinae caterer who served the viands a la molle de Pico, in five minutes after camping. The party reached their tents in one of Anahiem's stored groves; where the nightly song the mocking bird gave additional chance to the occasion. By special invitation we accompany by a friend dined with them at their camps, and passed a few hours of the evening in pleasant social intercourse. They took up their time of march or day morning, and probably camped at evening at Capitrano. It was our intention to make San Luis biday night, and to reach San Diego the following evening. If the air does not too thick they will probably return in three days. The effect of the journey and mode of travel is health and enjoyment, wine cannot fail to obtain, with the practical, spiritual and highly philosophical dispositions of the members of the city. Democratic Primary Meeting at Los Nietos. Los Nietos, May 25, 1871. At a Democratic meeting held in Los Nietos Previncet on the 25th day of May, 1871, Col. E. M. Santord was called to the chair, who stated the object of the meeting to be a selection of a candidate to represent the interests of the people this portion of the county. On motion a committee of five was appointed to draft resolutions. Resolved that we demand of the Democracy of this county to allow us a member of the Assembly from this portion of the county. Resolved—That we expect the Democratic party to endorse the man of our choice. Resolved—That we exact from our candidate a pledge to guard, and to use his best efforts to regulate the water question, which is important to us all, and also to protect the farmer against the respass of stock. Resolved—That our delegate be duly agreed to exercise his best ability for the general interest of the county. Resolved—That Major Max Strobel of Anahiem is the final nominee of this meeting to represent us in the next assembly, and also that we ask the Democracy of the various precincts of the county to hold meetings and to enforce the proceedings of this meeting. W. N. HARDIN, RICHARD DEGAN, E. W. CHAMPLIN, J. E. FULTON, S. S. THOMPSON. The meeting further recommended the disapproval of the action of the Central Committee, in appointing delegates to the State convention. NEW GRAPE CRUSHER - We call attention to an interesting communication on first page, written to the Aller by Keller of Los Angeles. It gives a prehensive view of grape crushing contains many valuable suggestions in an account of a new grape crusher bids fair to revolutionize that department of wine making. ORAVIA VEDETTE. - We have received a copy of the "Moravia Vedette" of a looking newspaper published in Moravia Iowa, by Mr E. Cummings, her of Mr R. Cummings, of Fair Centre. The "Vedette" is about same age as the "Gazette" and good work in the county it is established. Bold Robbery. On Saturday evening last, a disfigured solder from Arizona, successor robbed the till of Mr Spurgon at Santa Ana, of $82. He had joined around the premises during the afternoon, and seeing Mr Spurgon step out for a moment, has ridden the drawer and deposited coin in his shoes. Mr Spurgon not discover his loss for some time awards; and in the mean time he went and took supper at the rest of Mr Bish. Returning he of to attend bar for Mr Nemo, but refused. He then went off toward City, stating that he would be in the morning. In the morning son knowing of the theft met and told him he was accused of thief then boldly started back to the store of Mr Spurgon. Assembly, and also that we ask the democracy of the various precincts of our county to hold meetings and to encourage the proceedings of this meeting. W. N. HARDIN, RICHARD EGAN, E. W. CHAMPLEN, J. E. FULTON, S. S. THOMPSON. The meeting further recommended the disapproval of the action of the Central Committee, in appointing delegates to the State Convention on the ground that it is not democratic and that according to the principles which they represent, their appointment ought to have been left to the voice of the people. The meeting further unanimously recommended Dr. N. P. Richardson, of Los Angeles, as Democratic candidate or Sheriff. Birds Nest. - We have received from Dr. H. E. Babit, a hamming bird's nest containing one egg, and which his children found in a willow hedge. The nest is upon its outside, about the size of a small peach, and on its inside, the size of a large red cherry. It is made of stilte down and the pellet of the veamore buds. It is fastened to its face upon the twig by a paper like obstance similar to that of a wasp's nest. The egg (when found, there was no in this nest) is the size of a small can, and precisely the form of a hen's egg. It is very heavy for such small an object, and the shell is easily broken. Bobbit says, there are several birds living about his premises, and that often times when he is at work, one of them will flat directly in front of his face and reminds those notionless looking intensely at him for several minutes.
