RICHARD MELROSE. LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Local Necessities. A FIRE DEPARTMENT. It must be apparent to the minds of our citizens that our property is lamentably insecure, in event of a fire. And it must be equally apparent that such insecurity is the result of their own negligence. The immunity we have heretofore enjoyed from the fire fiend's ravages has lulled us into an apathy, from which we may soon have a cruel awakening. We revel in the possession of an alarm-bell, a truck, two dozen buckets, two ladders and half-dozen axes, but the probabilities are that, should they be wanted, we would find the truck wheels refusing to revolve never having been farmers' Club—The Fairview Farmers' Club met on Thursday evening Feb. 13th. The Vice-President in the chair. The minutes of previous meeting were read and approved. The Committee of Investigation asked for and was allowed further time to report. Other committees were appointed to obtain information relative to the best method of providing storage and transportation for produce. The question (Resolved, That the co-operation of farmers is beneficial to their welfare) was discussed. An essay by J. D. Taylor was read on the subject, and it was ordered by the club that the Secretary serve a copy of the same to the Rural Press, and one to the Southern California, with the proceedings of this evening, with a request to publish. On motion, the same question was continued for discussion at the next regular meeting, being the fourth Thursday evening of the present month, at the Fairview School House, at 7 o'clock, P.M. Daniel Cummins, Sr., Thomas Cahl, John Gwin, and W. H. Cheesman came forward and joined the club. Adjourned. D. R. COLES, Sec'y. ON THE RAMPAGE.—Dolores, the patent pump and general nuisance, not content with making night bidious with his drunken oaths and foul language, attempted to batter down the doors of Back Bros.' store on Sunday night. Not succeeding, he effected a burglarious entrance into the dining saloon of the Planter's Hotel. Fortunately "Frank" result of their own negligence. The immunity we have heretofore enjoyed from the fire fiend's ravages has lulled us into an apathy, from which we may soon have a cruel awakening. We revel in the possession of an alarm-bell, a truck, two dozen buckets, two ladders and half-dozen axes, but the probabilities are that, should they be wanted, we would find the truck wheels refusing to revolve, never having been "doped" since it was first built—the buckets leaking—the ladders borrowed by some industrious whitewasher, and not procurable; and the axes? ah, yes, the axes! We had— A FIRE COMPANY. Numbering nearly forty members, which was organized during and immediately after the excitement caused by the burning of the Planters' Hotel, in June, 1871. The almost miraculous escape of the entire business portion of the town from total destruction, and the effects of mis-directed and undisciplined energy were so apparent that no difficulty was found in obtaining subscriptions to a fund for the purchase of fire apparatus and a powerful and effective body of men was immediately organized, under the name of ANAHEIM FIRE COMPANY, NO. 1. This effectiveness was kept up until the gorgeous red shirts with which they were wont to bedeck themselves had cooled to be a novelty, and now we see them (the shirts) put to all manner of base uses—ours has done noble service as a dish-rag for several months. About the only effective service that we have seen Anaheim Fire Co. No. 1, render, was the able and determined manner in which they consumed about a hundred gallons of lager, on the occasion of their last parade. A body of men, showing the courage and determination which they did on that trying occasion, could certainly cope successfully with the demon of fire. We hope that some effort be made to revive the organization, so that should their services be required (which the "gude" forbid), we D. R. COLES, Sec'y. ON THE RAMPAGE.—Dolores, the patent pump and general nuisance, not content with making night bidious with his drunken oaths and foul language, attempted to batter down the doors of Back Bros.' store on Sunday night. Not succeeding, he effected a burglarious entrance into the dining saloon of the Platter's Hotel. Fortunately "Frank" was awake and with the assistance of a billiard cue demonstrated to him the impropriety of his conduct. He saw it at once and retired, leaving behind him however a small quantity of hair and blood. SCIENTIFIC.—The editor of the Havilah Miner is posted in materia medica. In describing the cause of a child's death, he says: "The pharnyx asophagus, which form the canal leading to the stomach, as well as the larynx, the organ of the voice, situated at the upper part of the air passage, and the continuous cylindrical tube, the trachea, which extends from the larynx downwards, where it divides into two branches, one for each lung, were minutely examined for any obstruction which might exist; none was found. The stomach contained nothing, the wall being closely approximated, and the large intestines were in a similar condition." Drunk.—On last Wednesday, we had an opportunity of witnessing the ease with which a drunken man can accommodate himself to circumstances. We observed an individual who had imbibed a yard or so too much, wind his weaving to the rear of the Challenge Restaurant, and carefully selecting the dirtiest spot, lay down, stick his nose in an ash heap, and go serenely to sleep. A Prophecy.—The Alameda County Gazette, says that the main issue of the fight over the county-seat of Kern county, is the relative amount of "bitters" consumed by the rival towns. If this is so, we can prophesy that Havilah will remain the county-seat. The editor of the Miner can consume more I.X.L. to get up an appetite than any man we ever know and we ought to know. termined manner in which they consumed about a hundred gallons of lager, on the occasion of their last parade. A body of men, showing the courage and determination which they did on that trying occasion, could certainly cope successfully with the demon of fire. We hope that some effort be made to revive the organization, so that should their services be required (which the "gude" forbid), we can rely on their active, efficient and intelligent aid. We propose, in future articles to call the attention of our citizens to some other important "local necessities." New Stable. The attention of our readers is called to the advertisement of Messrs. G. Anzar & Co., of the Union Stable, Los Angeles. The carriages, buggies, etc., with which these gentlemen have lately filled their stables, are of the newest styles, and the turn-outs are elegant enough to suit even the fastidious taste of an Anabeim "blood." Adjusted. Mr. H. McLellan, agent of the P. M. S. S. Co., will be in Anaheim in a few days to refund to the consignee of the "Orizaba" a large proportion of the money deposited with him to cover the general average. The amount required from the consignee is only 388-100 per cent of the invoice values. The Company have acted liberally in this matter, they only having charged for unavoidable expenses.

Accident. — Mr. Henry Bremermann, late proprietor of the Anaheim Hotel, met with a severe accident last Wednesday evening. In examining his gun, preparatory to a day's hunting, it went off, the charge entering his side. The wound, though serious, is not considered fatal. He is attended by Dr. Hardin. Gone. That incomparable, animated ten-horse power water pump, Dolores, has not been seen in town since his burglarious attempt on Sunday evening. As a "water pumper" he was equal to a patent windmill in a Santa Ana wind. For the very best Photographs, go to Bradley and Rulofson's gallery without Stairs. Ascend in the Elevator, 429 Montgomery-st., San Francisco. Engraving. The only place in Los Angeles where engraving is done is at Job M. Seamans' Jewelry Store. THE BALL — The ball given last evening at the Enterprise Hall, was certainly the most brilliant and recherche affair that ever took place in Anaheim. The hall was tastefully festooned with evergreens, and in the centre hung a highly ornamented pyramid of light, while the mirrors with which the walls were hung acted as reflectors, and increased the brilliancy of the scene. Each lady, on entering the hall, was presented with a bouquet of flowers, called from the gardens, which are the boast of Anaheim. Precisely at twelve o'clock a large bonfire, which had been previously prepared, was lighted, and a salute of twenty guns ushered in the natal day of George Washington. After the salute, the guests adjourned to a supper, prepared by mine host of the Challenge restaurant, and the fact of its being under his supervision, renders encomium unnecessary. DEEDS FILED. A.

G. Johnson, Esq. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. [We would be much pleased to insert every week communications regarding subjects which are of general interest to our readers. Personal communications will be invariably rejected. WESTMINSTER, Feb. 19th, 1873. Ed. "SOUTHERN CALIFORNIAN": Some time ago you published an article relating to home industries and their encouragement. I have not the article before me to refer to, and shall not attempt to quote from it. The substance of the article in question had my hearty approval, and I think the subject ought to be in the minds of all. There is nothing so necessary and essential to the prosperity of a country as the fostering of home industries. It should be the policy of the merchant as well as the farmer, to encourage all classes of manufactures, and never to purchase anything abroad that can be obtained at home. I have been led to mention this subject again because I understand that parties in this settlement who have at great expense, and some risk, commenced the manufacture of Lard, Bacon and Hams, find some difficulty in selling these articles. They have not been offered by merchants desiring these articles the wholesale price ruling in San Francisco. If every consumer of these articles would insist on having those of home manufacture, when the articles were of the same quality, we would soon teach dealers a lesson which they would remember.

They have not been offered by merchants desiring these articles the wholesale price ruling in San Francisco. If every consumer of these articles would insist on having those of home manufacture, when the articles were of the same quality, we would soon teach dealers a lesson which they would remember. It is a self evident proposition that a country will increase rapidly in material wealth if it consume its own products, instead of shipping them at great expense to other points and exchanging them for ordinary articles of food. One of the great draw-backs to the rapid improvement and development of this country, is the small price paid the farmers for their produce, particularly their grain. But if it is demonstrated that our corn and barley can be converted into bacon and lard, we can now export those articles instead of importing them—a result which would retain in this section many thousand dollars that are now paid for these articles and their freight. Let each citizen do all in his power to foster and encourage this enterprise. Miscellaneous. TAILORING! NEW SHOP IN Anaheim. MR M. F.
