Southern Californian. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1872. CHAS. A. GARDNER...E'r & Prep'r. Litigant Law Repealed. We learn from a special dispatch to the Star that the obnoxious Litigant Law has been repealed. Legal advertising pertaining to this portion of the country should now be given to the Southern California in support of our own local interests. Value of the Local Paper. We have just received one of the numberless proofs that are constantly occurring, of the great value of a local paper to the country in which it is published. Mr. John Whalin, of Napa City, Cal., writes us that has seen in a San Francisco paper an extract from the Anaheim Gazette (the predecessor of the Southern California) in reference to the town of Richland. He is pleased with what he has learned and desires to know more, with a view of coming here to settle. Now this a result which this paper is every day accomplishing. It advertises the country abroad. It shows up the advantages of our soil and climate and the variety of our productions. It shows that people here are healthy, that our towns grow, and that the community is generally prosperous. We induce people to come here by showing them these facts. I have conduced to you a bill. Ah, this is indeed a grievous bill who passed legislative bills myself. He is the champion of neither Mad Springs nor New Jersey can produce like unto him. The President United States hath not such he passes no bill without personal votes. Newton Booth armor of California; must fully request legislative intents before he passes a bill. The aid of their parliament of England can make no Frederick William add a note to the code of the Empire. His is a greater man than any other who asks nobody's assistance the Legislature, he passes he abolishes Anaheim would charitably save us the ability of making any remorse anything we could say would not account now. We will what respected in September when our votes elected gave him the little brief and now enjoys. He has made mind to pass the bill, and going way with our first remorse and deceiving our people promises, he coolly says at once to save you the getting up another remorse. This transaction has paid history, and made a portion record of Asa Ellis. The following petition itself: STATE OF CALIFORNIA view of coming here to settle. Now this a result which this paper is every day accomplishing. It advertises the country abroad. It shows up the advantages of our soil and climate and the variety of our productions. It shows that people here are healthy, that our towns grow, and that the community is generally prosperous. We induce people to come here by showing them these facts. In this way we make our land more valuable, we increase the trade of our merchants, the number of visitors to our hotels, the business of every man in the community, and the value of all property. The public can afford to patronize us for this reason, if no other. Whoever owns an acre of land here ought to subscribe for the paper, whether he can read it or not, for its labors are making him richer every day. Whoever follows any business pursuit could afford to pay for an advertisement even if that advertisement in itself did him no good, because our efforts are bringing people here who become the patrons of those who advertise with us. Are We Represented? It seems, from the following, that at least one member of the Los Angeles delegation, Asa Ellis, does not regard Anaheim as a part of his constituency. Several weeks ago a petition was sent from this city to the Legislature, praying for the repeal of the city charter. A remonstrance or protest against the repeal was soon gotten up—signed, we believe, by a majority of our citizens—and forwarded to Asa Ellis. When Major Strobel was at Sacramento recently, he conferred with Mr. Ellis upon the subject, representing to him the wishes of a large majority of the voters and tax-payers of this city that the charter should not be repealed. Mr. Ellis informed the major that the remonstrance had been lost or stolen from his desk, but advised him to get up another remonstrance and forward to him, and assured him that no action should be taken in the matter until the second remonstrance should be recieved and ing way with our first remembrances and deceiving our people with promises, he coolly says at once to save you the time getting up another remembrance. This transaction has paid history, and made a portion record of Asa Ellis. The following petition itself: STATE OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES Personally appeared before Kobler, a Justice of the Court and for Los Angeles Henry Kroeger, John Fischer, S. J. Dale George and Henry Brown who, each for himself, one for the other, deeds says: That it has come to the tive knowledge, through letter addressed to their fzen Max Strobel, by Ellis, a member of the Local delegation to the State House at present in session at Sacramento, that a bill for ollishment of the charter of Anaheim has been brfore the House and Senate likely to be acted upon bodies adversely to the large majority of the city and only through loining of a protest sign least a two third major taxpaying citizens of the favor of the retaining of Charter which protest has newed and sent on the 19 February A. D. 1872, mail to the Seat of the Government properly verified tested and directed to Hon. Asa Ellis. Now, we, the underspectfully ask the exerting power vested in cellency in order to suicidal scheme of a few individuals nipped in the Signed, HENRY KROEGER "John P. Zevyn, John Fischer, S J. Davis, Liquor Heimann & George Henry Bremerman keeper and" Robert Ashcroft Ellis upon the subject, representing to him the wishes of a large majority of the voters and taxpayers of this city that the charter should not be repealed. Mr. Ellis informed the major that the remonstrance had been lost or stolen from his desk, but advised him to get up another remonstrance and forward to him, and assured him that no action should be taken in the matter until the second remonstrance should be recieved and the wishes of the people ascertained. The Major returned, satisfied with this assurance; but what was his astonishment, on Thursday last, at the receipt of the following letter from Mr. Ellis: SACRAMENTO, Feb. 8th, 1872. MAJ. MAX STROBEL, Anaheim. Dear Sir: This will inform you that after a careful and impartial examination of both the petition and remonstrance in relation to the disincorporation of the city of Anaheim, I have concluded to pass the bill, dissolving the corporation or charter. I write at once to save you the trouble of getting up another remonstrance. Yours truly, ASA ELLIS Now vexed questions arise, chief of which are, Did Mr. Ellis have our original remonstrance in his breaches pocket at the time when, "with a smile that was childlike and bland" he calmly assured Maj. Strobel that it had mysteriously disappeared? Had he sold it to a Chinaman for wrapping paper? Had he laid it under the table? And how was it miraculously resurrected so soon after Mr. Strobel left as Mr. Ellis immediately writes that he has carefully examined both the petition and remonstrance. And then again he have concluded to pass the this is indeed a great man legislative bills all by him in the champion great man Mad Springs nor Oakland, new Jersey can prodase a man him. The President of the States hath not such powers, does no bill without congress votes. Newton Booth, Govof California, must respect request legislative intervention he passes a bill. Without of their parliaments Victoria England can make no law, nor rick William add a new gettz code of the Empire. Asa Elgreater man than all those; as nobody's assistance, he is legislature, he passes the bill polishes Anaheim. And he charitably save us the troumaking any remonstrance. we could say would be of count now. We were somerespected in September last, our votes elected him and him the little brief authority he enjoys. He has made up his to pass the bill, and after making with our first remonstrance, receiving our people with false ses, he coolly says "I write me to save you the trouble of up another remonstance." transaction has passed into y, and made a portion of the of Asa Ellis. following petition explains ANAHEIM, Feb. 16th, 1872. In Saturday Californian:—In presenting a work committed to my trust, an opportunity was offered to me of lacking a little into the moral status of Anaheim, and with your permission, Mr. Editor, a few thoughts will be thrown out touching on the subject. An effort is now being made to secure the divinity of the county of Los Angeles, and the formation of a new county to be called Orange county, it is the confident expectations if this effort shall be successful that it will be attended with a rapid influx of population and business to Anaheim. Now, while it is true that Anaheim possesses many natural advantages, in climate and soil, and its adaptation to the culture of semi-tropical fruits and the facilities which are afforded for their successful cultivation, this of itself would attract many persons to the place, and most persons, on visiting Anaheim, would be delighted in looking in upon the evidences of industry and thrift of the people, and with the taste with which their homes are ornamented. And yet there are some other things (which we could name) that will stand out like the "double flaming sword" that was placed at the entrance of the Garden of Paradise, and will be as successful in preventing the settlement of the better class of people in Anaheim if they are not obviated. J. H. WRIGHT & CO. NEW STORE AND NEW GOODS!! STATE OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES. Specially appeared before me, A. Barker, a Justice of the Peace of Los Angeles County, Henry Kroeger, John P. Zeyn, John Fischer, S. J. Davis, Oscar George and Henry Bremermann, each for himself, and not for the other, deposes and asks: What it has come to their position knowledge, through a certain addressed to their fellow citizens Max Strobel, by Hon. Asa a member of the Los Angeles Association to the State Legislature present in session at the city ofamento, that a bill for the abdiment of the charter of this city Anaheim has been brought before the House and Senate and is ready to be acted upon by those adversely to the desire of a majority of the citizens of city and only through the purging of a protest signed by at least two third majority of the paying citizens of this city in order of retaining the City latter which protest has been re-used and sent on the 13th day of January A. D. 1872, by regular vote to the Seat of the State Government properly verified and attended and directed to the care of Asa Ellis. Now, we, the undersigned, resfully ask the exercise of the power vested in your Excancy in order to have thisidal scheme of a few designing individuals nipped in the bud. HENRY KROEGER, Vintner, JOHN P. ZEVN, JOHN FISCHER, S. J. DAVIS, Liquor dealer, HEIMANN & GEORGE, Merchants HENRY BREMERMANN, Hotel keeper and vintner, ROBERT ASHCROFT, Butcher and thrift of the people, and with the taste with which their homes are ornamented. And yet there are some other things (which we could name) that will stand out like the "double flaming sword" that was placed at the entrance of the Garden of Paradise, and will be as successful in preventing the settlement of the better class of people in Anaheim if they are not obviated. It is the practice of almost all travelers, especially of those who have enjoyed the sanctity of the Sabbath and the ministrations of the gospel, to judge the moral status of any people by the character of their schools and churches. The entire absence of church spires and the sounding of church bells, always omens badly for the morals of any community. We rejoice to know, and take pleasure in saying, that the public school in Anaheim compares favorably with schools in other places. But the school building, the only one in the place, contrasts strangely with the dwellings of her citizens. As a general thing, we believe it is a custom in all cities and towns to have their church buildings compare favorably in taste and capacity with the private residences of the people. But we trust better things are in the near future for this nascent city; and we would here take the liberty of suggesting the propriety of having a public discourse delivered at some suitable time and place upon the subject of the influence of Christian churches upon the material, social and moral interests of any people.
