ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1871. NOTICE. Los Angeles candidates wishing to be announced in the Anaheim 'Gazette' can arrange to do so by calling on Mr W. J. Brodrick. A Brief Adieu. Woaried by the active labors of fifteen months continuous newspaper till in this county, the editor of this paper proposes for himself a brief respite of two weeks. During his absence the editorial chair of the Gazette will be filled by Chas. A. Gardner, Esq; and our friends will find him an able and courteous gentleman. The Truth of the Matter. The last issue of the Advocate, contiues a card undoubtedly written by Max Strobel; and after being written, circulated by him and his man Friday, for a whole week, up and down the country, for a few unimportant signatures. The card attempts to substantiate the former statement of the Advocate, that a people's convention has been held at Anaheim. While the public already understand the falsity of the statements made in that card, we have scarcely the time to devote to the subject of their analysis. Hence we will give the subject only brief attention: The document is signed by only seven. LETTERS FROM PEOPLE Strobel Exposed-Letterical’—He Explains Tensions of the ‘dark-Jaw’—Where the Squad hides For Tricks that arise ANAHEIM Ed Gazette. "A drowning catch at straws" is an old application. No better than the truth of this old saying found than in the struggle and contortions of that people's candidate Max Strobel attempts to get an endorable self by the people, and to people at large believe he home: A few weeks since issued for a people's convoy under advisement the County division. There is object mentioned in that other intended by the call. The men who sign good faith, believing that of this section of the convention about the division respond to the call; if not the end of it. At the prizedheim, two tickets were made up of men who pledged for or against Strobel's claims were side issuing the convention had nothing other ticket was made unless festly in the interests of electioneering; by misreceiving object of the callers of the County division to and exchanging The card attempts to substantiate the former statement of the Advocate, that a people's convention has been held at Anaheim. While the public already understand the falsity of the statement made in that card, we have scarcely the time to devote to the subject of their analysis. Honco we will give the subject only brief attention: The document is signed by only seven of their alleged fourteen delegates—and as to the thirteen spectators, which they allege to have had present at this seance, it is passing strange that the entire force of the Store of Heimann & George should have been there. The names of the two partners of that concern, and both their clerks appear signed as "Spectators" to this orgie, yet persons who visited that store about this time, saw all the parties of the firm employed as usual, in the obvious ways of trade, and the store was not closed. Another of those thirteen who signed as spectators, is a person who would sign anything for a four bit piece. The fact is, when it comes to signing Strobel petitions, &c., names are valuable, and anything is acceptable in the shape of an autograph. Moreover, it looks rather weak, to not find the other seven of their fourteen delegates subscribed to this card. Now that a meeting was held, which we chose to call a "dark lantern" affair. [because not held persuant to call, nor in common with the citizens making the call; because not of the people; because not connected with the call made by leading citizens in the columns of the Gazette or in furtherance of the object of that call; because held in opposition to due notice, and because held in a back room at Richards' Saloon, and not at any place previously announced]. no one has ever disputed. But that this Hoo-doo caucus, made up of a worse crowd than those who "Round about the calderon go; In the poisoned entrails throw, Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adders fork, and blind-worm's string, Lizards' leg, and owlet's wing, Making hell-broth boil and bubble, For themselves the chiefest trouble," was the convention which was at one heim, two tickets were made up of men who pledged for or against Strobel's claims were side issue the convention had nothing other ticket was made festly in the interests of electioneering; by misrejected object of the callers of the by pandering to and exorcising the Strobel ticket was every few of the other preaction taken in regard to It was therefore deemed by the callers, to hold and notification was sent three precincts where been held, that a full ex-people was not possible and that no convention Notification of this was the columns of the Anaheim. The object of the callers the people is full and fair on a certain issue, and not respond, it was not petrate a fraud by holding of a coporal's guard not represent a twentie was intended by the this opportunity was no Max Strobel. If he was dorsed here was his objection of his seventy gates. Hence, he gathered delegates, with had been regularly elected were not aware of affairs, and in a bad Enterprise Saloon, hold an account of which had fore published in the Gazette of five were apprehensions—Resolution Strobel, denouncing the "Ring" &c., and which obviously printed for action were voted down in the were brought into the tion as a minority sed by the Strobel mem Mr. Johnson of Santa Clark of Fairview, stre these resolutions as for Saloon, and not at any place previously announced], no one has ever disputed. But that this Hoo-doo caucus, made up of a worse crowd than those who "Round about the calderon go; In the poisoned entrails throw, Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adders fork, and blind-worm's string, Lizards' leg, and owlet's wing, Making hell-broth boil and bubble, For themselves the chiefest trouble," was the convention which was at one time contemplated, and for a specific purpose—no one at all familiar with the case, will admit. We are obliged to dispel this illusion of the Advocate "ring" and to assure them that misrepresentation can only afford them a temporary relief at most. Narrow Gauge. Following are the latest and most concise arguments in favor of narrow gauge railroads: 1. In the large comparative saving in first construction and the cost of the right of way. 2. In the large proportion of paying load to non-paying weight of train. 3. In the great reduction in wear and tear of permanent way through the advantage gained by light rolling stock. 4. In the saving in the reduced wear and tear of wheel tires, from the reduced weight on each wheel. 5. In the large proportionate increased power of locomotives. 6. In proportionate increased velocities gained in the light system. 7. In the greater economy in working traffic. 8. In the comparative increase in the capabilities of traffic.

Exposed-Letter from 'Radter'—He Explains the Operations of the 'dark-fantern' squad where the Squad held forth &c. For Tricks that are Vain. ANAHEIM July 31st Gazette. "A drowning man will not straws is an old adage, of wide station. No better illustration of both of this old saying is to be than in the struggles, clutching contortions of that self constituted a candidate Max Strobel, in his hits to get an endorsement of himthe people, and to make the peolarge believe he is popular at A few weeks since a call was for a people's convention to take advisement the question of division. There was no other mentioned in that call and no intended by the signers of that The men who signed it did so in faith, believing that if the people is section of the county were in att about the division, they would add to the call; if not, there was of it. At the primary in Anatwo tickets were put up—one up of men who were neither had for or against Strobel. He and himsa were side issues, with which convention had nothing to do. The ticket was made up of men manisin in the interests of Strobel. By pioneering; by misrepresenting the of the callers of that convention; undergoing to and exciting prejudice, more equivocal positions he can force himself into. His organ harps upon the iniquities of the "Los Angeles Ring," yet in the very same number advocates the election of Mr. Burns who is one of the iniquitous "Ring." He is in favor of an equitable adjustment of the water question, yet when the farmers north of Anaheim had entered into a compact with the Anaheim Water Company, by which these farmers could secure water, he interferes, and breaks up the agreement to the detriment of both parties Oh! consistency thou art a jewel. But thou art not to be found in Strobel. RADICAL. For Supervisor,—Mr. E W. Squires announces himself as an Independent Democratic candidate for the office of Supervisor. Mr. Squires is widely and favorably known as one of our most honorable and public spirited citizens, and if elected will do credit to the choice of his constituents. New Advertisements. The "People's Advocate" contains an article regarding the stock of Abel Stearns, signed "Observer" which is entirely false and untrue—there is not sufficient space in this paper to expose to a disinterested public the depredations and injustices committed in portions of this county against individuals owning stock either by killing maiming or crippling, or by taking animals up and selling them under false judgments, such as are rendered by S. J. Davis. justice of the peace of Anaheim founded on a pretended trespass law, which did not exist. Mr Abel Stearns being one who defends his rights and two tickets were put up—one group of men who were neither dead for or against Strobel. He and his friends were side issues, with which convention had nothing to do. The ticket was made up of men manish in the interests of Strobel. By pioneering; by misrepresenting the callers of that convention; rendering to and exciting prejudice, Strobel ticket was elected. In but few of the other precincts was any taken in regard to the call. It was therefore deemed advisable, the callers, to hold no convention, notification was sent to the two or three precincts where primaries had held, that a full expression of the vote was not possible at this time that no convention would be held. Location of this was also given in columns of the Anaheim Gazette object of the callers was to afford people a full and fair expression up-certain issue, and as the public did respond, it was not proposed to per-itate a fraud by holding a conven-ation of a coporal's guard, which would represent a twentieth part of what intended by the call. However, opportunity was not to be lost by Strobel. If he was ever to be en-ended here was his only chance, he ensure of his seven Anaheim de-laws. Hence, he gathers in the Anaheim delegates, with six others who have regularly elected, and who are not aware of the state of affairs, and in a back room of the Enterprise Saloon, hold a pow-wow account of which has been hereto-published in the Gazette. A committee of five were appointed to draft resolutions—Resolutions nominating Strobel, denouncing the Los Angeles "gag" &c., and which had been pre-printed for adoption. These votes down in the committee but brought into the so-called conven-ance a minority report, and pass by the Strobel men. Mr. Bush and Johnson of Santa Ana, and Mr. Clark of Fairview, strenuously opposed these resolutions as foreign to the ob-ject. Mr. Stearns has a perfect right to grase his stock on any of his unsold lands without consulting the "Observer." WANTED!!
