ANAHEIM GAZETTE. CHAS. A. GARDNER; ... Ed'r & Prop.'r. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1871. Notice. J C Hill Jr. is hereby authorized to receive subscriptions for the Gazette. The Rail Road Convention. "his convention was held here last Saturday and was from beginning to end a most gross imposition upon the people of the southern part of the County. We had acted in good faith and elected delegates who were real bona fide genuine delegates; we claimed only such vote in the convention as we were justly entitled to by the terms of the call. But from the northern portion of the County (The City of Los Angeles is an honorable exception) there came men who claimed to be delegates who had never been elected or qualified in any way, who did not live at the places they pretended to represent; several who even had the hardihood to claim seats for communities that were not entitled under any circumstances to be represented. Delegates had been called for from nine localities, viz; Santa Ana, El Monte, Anaheim, San Gabriel, San Jose, Gallatin, Compton, Wilmington and San Fernando; three from each would have been 27 all told, providing that delegates had really been elected and sent from each place. But not more than 6 or 7 of these places elected delegates, and not over 21 votes were entitled to be cast, of which the country south of the San Gabriel would have had a majority. To counterbalance these honest votes, these..." Compton, Wilmington and San Fernando; three from each would have been 27 all told, providing that delegates had really been elected and sent from each place. But not more than 6 or 7 of these places elected delegates, and not over 21 votes were entitled to be cast, of which the country south of the San Gabriel would have had a majority. To counterbalance these honest votes, these votes which it was known would represent the opinions of the people, there were rung in upon the convention a swarm of bogus delegates who ruled the deliberations of that body and completely choked off the opinions of those who really had a right to be heard. The first and grand strategic stroke of the railroad people was to constitute their own committee on credentials; this done and a sufficient number of sham delegates admitted, the rest was all plain sailing. Delegates were admitted from Florence 3, San Antonio 2, La Puente 3 and La Ballona 3, which places were not included in the call and had no right to delegate; 11 fraudulent votes obtained in that way. Then three delegates were admitted to represent San Fernando by proxy; it not appearing that any election had ever been had for that place. Other points are equally doubtful. Judge Thomas did not seem to know which place he did hail from; was introduced as representing San Antonio but spoke of himself as a delegate from Silver Precinct. So in this way the number of votes which should have been not over 21, was swelled to 35, the carpet baggers being invariably rail road subsidy men. A committee on resolutions was formed, composed of Messrs Cowden, Higbie, & Temple, who reported the resolutions as published in another column. Considerable debate was had upon this, the parties taking sides about as follows: Anaheim San Joaquin, Santa Ana and Los Nietos against adoption and, we believe, all the others in favor of it. W R Olden proposed as a substitute the following. Resolutions. Higble, & Temple, who reported the resolutions as published in another column. Considerable debate was had upon this, the parties taking sides about as follows; Anaheim San Joaquin, Santa Ana and Los Nietos against adoption and, we believe, all the others in favor of it. W R Olden proposed as a substitute the following. Resolutions. Preamble, whereas, while we admit the great benefits conferred upon the country by the construction of railroads, it is nevertheless the opinion of this convention that only those who are directly benefitted should be required to aid in the construction by subsidy or otherwise, therefore. 1st. Resolved, That we the members of this convention are unalterably and entirely opposed to the present system of voting subsidies to railroad corporations by a general vote of the people of a county. 2d. Resolved, That only those who pay taxes on property to the value of $300 should have the right to vote for the expenditure of money for the benefit of private individuals or corporations. 3d. Resolved, That if the people North and West of the San Gabriel River wish to vote subsidies to railroads that will benefit themselves alone, they alone should be taxed to pay such subsidy. A motion was made and carried to table the substitute, upon which Mr. Olden called upon all anti-subsidy men to withdraw and left the hall, followed by the delegates of Anaheim, San Joaquin, Santa Ana and Los Nietos. The original resolutions were then immediately adopted by the remaining delegates and the meeting adjourned since after ordering the resolutians published in the Star, Express and Gazette. SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Nov. 22, 1871. Anaheim Gazette. Although not many things of great importance have taken place here since Wednesday until now; still there is little to be said about this place. A funeral ceremony, say, a marriage took place this morning in the church of San Juan. Jose Macario Rivera to Miss Margarita Aguilar, a daughter of San Blas Aguilar, a well known citizen of Los Angeles and San Diego counties. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. J. Mut, Catholic pastor of this place, and we desire the new married couple many years of a happy life. No weather is pleasant, but too pleasant for the present time of course, it is to be supposed the stock are being very fast for want of feed and if does not rain soon very few will be. No signs of Pluvia; although it has been a little stormy the two or three days past, the sky is clear. Yours, J. M. COUNTY DIVISION The meeting is called to be held at Galena school house today to draft responses pertaining to the division of the county. This is right. It is an important matter; full of significance to the fate of every man within the limits proposed new Co. We are glad to see it come from some other than Anaheim, because as an Ana movement it is apt to be regarded advanced solely for the aggregation of our own town. Anaheim puts it, not for her own sake alone, for the common good of all. A decision of this County is desired not for benefit of this City Gallatin, Richmond, Santa Ana, Tustin City, Capistano NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. RESOLUTIONS. Adopted by the Railroad Convention held at Anaheim Nov. 18, 1871. Resolved, That we earnestly recommend the passage of an act by the coming Legislature authorizing the people of this county to vote on the following propositions: 1st. To donate to the Los Angeles and San Pedro Railroad Co., all interest now held therein by the city and county, on condition that the said Railroad Company extend their road wharf to where ships can discharge at its termination; or, should the Company prefer it, to procure dredging machines and dredge the channel so that ships can come to the present wharf and discharge and receive their cargoes. 2d. To donate to said company, county bonds to the amount of $5,000 per mile, bearing interest at the rate of 8 per cent, per annum for a railroad from some point on the present one to the Santa Ana river, passing through Anaheim, a distance of about 20 miles. 3d. To donate to the same Company county bonds of the same amount for a road from the city of Los Angeles to San Jose, passing through "The Monte" a distance of 30 miles. 4th. To donate to same, county bonds of the same amount for a road from the present railroad depot in the city of Los Angeles, in the most direct route to Owen's River, a distance of 80 miles. The people of Florence and Compton in connection with the Railroad Company to decide where the road shall lie. We are glad to see it come from some other place than Anaheim, because as an Ana movement it is apt to be regarded advanced solely for the aggravation of our own town. Anaheim is it, not for her own sake alone, for the common good of all. A dien of this County is desired not for benefit of this City Gallatin, Richmond, Santa Anna, Tustin City, Capistano and any other one community, but for all who sake of being segregated from a dilized old machine like Los Angeles city that is run by men who evidently have no interests in common with us who use us for a mere convenience take-weight in operations for their benefit. They are such men as we down here upon an invitation to enter with us upon public matters and took the business all in their own hands, bringing sham delegates enough votes our end of the County and insist our most earnest protest, passed out ones that are diametrically opposed to our sentiments and our interest. This makes a new argument in favor of dividing and getting free of dangerous friends who under the obvious pretence of doing something will incontinently gobble us all. We hope the meeting at Gailatin be fully attended. PASSENGERS. ARTED FOR THE Gazette BY N. H. MITCHELL ARRIVED. California 21st. inst; J. P. Pierce, art Huntington; 2 others to Wester. DEPARTED.
