FARMERS' ORANGES.
It would seem from the numerous Granges that are being established throughout the country, that the farmers had at last awakened to the necessity of a thorough organization of their forces. It is a matter of surprise that they should have remained so long without any organization similar to those by which the other trades and callings have sought to protect their interests and benefit their individual members. True, the farmers are more isolated than the denizens of cities and villages, and association is thus less convenient, and besides the steady demands for the products of their labor, serves to make them more independent than the manufacturing classes. These causes perhaps more than any others, have contributed to prevent the farmers from attempting any organization. But at last they seem to be fully aroused to the necessity of concert of action and co-operation, if they would secure the full returns of their honest industry. The encroachments of monopolies of capital upon their rights and interests have drawn them into organization to protect their rights. Our sympathies are with the farmers in their contest. We sincerely wish them success in all right and needed legislation. It is to be hoped that this new Order, the Patrons of Husbandry, which is becoming such a power in the land, may be made productive of great good to the agricultural classes. That it can be made the means of great good is beyond question; that it can become an instrument of evil is equally true.
A REVIEW OF THE FIELD
It would be needless to recapitulate our readers the many important reasons that could be adduced, to show that care should be exercised to elect manability and integrity to the smallest important office of Justice of the Court. On the 15th of October next, the people this township will be called upon to two Justices and in order that those have not personal knowledge of the nature of the candidates, may vote intently, we will attempt to review character and standing of the aspiring who have so far presented themselves asking the suffrages of the people.
Mr J W. Clark, who is a candidate for re-election, has during the two years has filled the office, given evidence of seizing all the tact, ability and judge which should be characteristic of Judge. His decisions have been generally regarded, as given in accordance with law and evidence. It is probably naïve that a litigant, whose claims received an adverse decision, should feel aggrieved, but when time cooled his anger and rested his sense, he would be a man of very judgment did he continue to harbour feeling of anger against the Judge who manifestly rendered the decision an sense of law and justice required. Believe, and are sure our readers will with us, that not one of the many actions made by Judge Clark, has ever given through bias or partiality, but a strong sense of justice.
Mr C. Mossman, who is also a candidate is one of the old settlers of Anaheim man who is highly spoken of by those long and intimate acquaintance with him, enables them to form an accurate estimate of his character. What knowledge he has, we do not know that he possesses a strong fund of man sense and a nice discrimination.
ments of monopolies of capital upon their rights and interests have drawn them into organization to protect their rights. Our sympathies are with the farmers in their contest. We sincerely wish them success in all right and needed legislation. It is to be hoped that this new Order, the Patrons of Husbandry, which is becoming such a power in the land, may be made productive of great good to the agricultural classes. That it can be made the means of great good is beyond question; that it can become an instrument of evil is equally true. The farmers must watch with jealous care that their order be not perverted into a mere political machine for helping demagogues and dead-beat politicians to places of honor and trust. There is no more intelligent, stable, and self-relying class of voters, than the great body of American farmers. In every great crisis they have proved faithful to truth and justice. But when no great danger threatens them, they are too prone to neglect their duties as citizens, and by staying away from the polls, allow political tricksters to be hoisted into power. If the Grange will incite the former to a greater interest in public affairs; if it will give him an opinion that a man is not fitted for a public position just because he wants it; if it will teach him that bar-room politicians are not the men who best understand his or the country's needs; if it will do all these, then God speed the Granges. Let us have one in every hamlet and rural district throughout the country.
One of the greatest benefits to farmers from the new Order will be the interchange of ideas. Ideas are very much like money, they must be circulated to do good. These meetings together, to give views and experiences upon the various matters that pertain to agriculture, will have a tendency to lift the farmer to higher planes of thought and cause him to take a deeper interest in his noble calling. A very commendable feature of the new Order is its social character. The presence of mothers, sisters and wives in the Grange must stimulate sociability in neighborhoods. There is no one thing that contributes so much to drive the sons of farmers to seek employment in large cities and towns, as the isolation of a farmers life. Solitude may be pleasurable to ascetics and those who have "soured" upon the world, but no healthy young nature takes it to choice. Let there be more social intercourse among the people of the rural districts, and farmers' sons will be less apt to abandon the calling of their fathers for some precarious business in the large cities and towns.
A CURE FOUND.
Don PELUGIO LABORIN, whose residence is about three leagues from Ures, the capital of Lower California, is the possessor of a sum for that purpose.
Mr. C. MOSSMAN, who is also a candidate is one of the old settlers of Anaheim man who is highly spoken of by those long and intimate acquaintances with him, enables them to form an estimate of his character. What knowledge he has, we do not know that he possesses a strong fund of mon sense, and a nice discrimination between right and wrong—two qualities necessary as a knowledge of law—every assurance. We have no doubt if elected, he will never do aught to grace the office to which he now aspire.
Mr. ALEXANDER BAILEY, who is all the field is a gentleman, of whom, his retired habits, but little is known was induced by our superb climate, to the here, in the hope of being able to store his shattered health—a hope we has been fully realized. Our slight knowledge of him, has given us a high option of his abilities. He is a ripe scholar, scientious and trustworthy, and in event of his election we would gainable, impartial Judge.
Dr. A HEVERMANN, whose announcement has been standing in our columns several months, is now in Petaluma. Do not consider him in the field at all we believe, that it by any chance he shall be elected, he would fail to qualify.
It is probable that we will not refer to this subject. We have pressured the aspirants, and have snowed on them of our power, the abilities possessed each. They are all good men and we leave it for the people to decide whom they will cast their votes.
BEATEN AGAIN.
BEN BUTLER: spoon and salary graft has been bottled again. For months has been laying wires and fixing up the generally to secure the nomination Governor of Massachusetts from the publican party, but when the convention met the other day at Springfield, and counted noses, he found the fight likely to go against him, so, considethat discretion was the better part of what he "discreshed." Cheeky to the last.
a resolution denouncing the back steal was introduced. Ben mounted platform and advocated in the story terms its passage—he who has been renamed as the champion defender of salary grabbers. We believe it was who figured out that if the whole taken from the Treasury by the back steal was divided up it would only amuse a three-cent postage stamp to each every taxpayer in the country, and generously offered to send any one a
A CURE FOUND.
Don Pelugio Laborin, whose residence is about three leagues from Ures, the capital of Lower California, is the possessor of a cure for that dread malady—hydrophobia—which has, for so long a time baffled medical skill. A correspondent of the San Diego Union, in describing his mode of treatment, says that he merely spits on his fingers and rubs them on the place bitten, a number of times. The supposition is, that before anointing the wound, he chews some herb known only to himself, and thus affects the cure. Although the fact of his being the only possessor of the secret which enables him to perform his wonderful cures, precludes the idea of its being of any general benefit, yet it is probable that in due time he will see fit to make known to the world, the name of the herb, possessed of such wonderful curative properties. This is the more probable, as he seems to be guided, not by a love of lucre, but by a desire to ameliorate the sufferings of his fellow-man. He takes no pay for his services, but the Government, in view of the philanthropy of his conduct, except him from the payment of taxes, and from all jury and other duties, incumbent upon its citizens.
STILL ANOTHER.
The Pacific Mall Company has sustained another loss in the wreck of the steamer "Costa Rica." On the night of the 17th inst., during a heavy fog, she ran on the rocks at Point Diablo, about three miles from Fort Point, staving a great hole in her bows. All the passengers and crew, with the exception of one Chinaman, were moved. The malls and treasure were got off safely, and also a portion of the baggage of the passengers. It is probable that the steamer will prove a total loss.
A TESTIMONIAL.
The Los Angeles Express of Wednesday gives us a gentle castigation charging the people of Los Angeles, being inimical to the prosperity of Anaheim. The reproof, however, is courteous in such complimentary language, that feel more flattered than otherwise. We know that injustice has been done on several occasions, by some residents of Los Angeles, we can not but testify to uniform spirit of courtesy manifested the Express towards Anaheim. We not intend our remarks to be construc-

CLEANINGS.
Two hundred and twenty-six deaths from fever have occurred at Shreveport since September 1st.
The Republican State Convention has nominated S. H. Dwinelle, of San Francisco, and A. Brunson, of Los Angeles, for Supreme Judges. The former for the long and the latter for the short term.
The Chicago Post thinks that the first duty of the Granges is to extinguish every orator who begins with "I have not the good fortune to be a farmer, but I have always felt the most profound interest in the truly noble and predominant pursuit of agriculture, and never was the interest greater than now."
Fourteen Chinese women who arrived on the Mac Gregor, attracted the attention of the police stationed on the wharf, by their healthy and rotund appearance. On examination it was found that they were attired in numerous silk gowns. An actual count developed the fact, that the fourteen women were wearing eighty four gowns and thirty seven pair of trowers. This was an artful dodge to escape the payment of the lawful duties.

A CARD.
Arriving here this morning, I learn that my old friend Frank Ganabi is traveling around electioneering against me, and telling the people that I ought not to be elected District Judge, because I am now a "lawyer for the Railroad."
Now, Frank, that is a rough argument from a brother of the honorable profession. Would you have refused to take a case for the railroad, if your services had been sought? Can you pretend, that it attending to any case for any Railroad Company, I ever acted dishonorably, or otherwise than you would have done, if you had been employed instead of me? Frank! Frank! Et tu Brute!
But fortunately for me, such a stab, though most unkind, is not as deep as a well. The intelligent people of Los Angeles county are more likely to be moved in my favor, than prejudiced against me by such a weak attack, even if true. But as a matter of fact, I am not lawyer for any railroad, more than you are. I have, when applied to for legal advice, given it, and have attended to cases in court when employed by "the railroad." Such cases are now all settled. I have no standing retainer, and if you or your friends wish to employ me in any case against "the railroad," I am at your service.
Otherwise I am told you flatter my legal capacity and moral integrity—for which accept my humble thanks.
But Frank, go home and attend to your own business! It looks badly for such men as you to be circulating around the country in buggies, with fast teams, spending your money in trying thus to prejudice the people against an old friend. In truth, it looks as if "something is rotten in the State of Denmark," and that the cause you are advocating is loth to stand on its true merits.
Respectfully, etc.
