Southern Californian SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1872. SPECIAL NOTICE. WE HAVE REDUCED THE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE OF the California to $4 per year. Special indemnities are offered to Claude, Maysa, Clark & Austin are our authorized agents in America, and all orders left with them will receive prompt attention. Kleinigheiten, Mr. John Gwin has returned from his trip to the northern part of the State. Sunday last was the twenty-third anniversary of California's admission into the Union. Judge LaRue lost his saddle horse, whilst at Gallatin on Monday. Read the advertisement of Dr. Ellis. "I'll bet yer a hat it will rain before to-morrow," is an exclamation often heard nowadays. Forty thousand dollars is the amount disbursed among the farmers of this section of the county, during the last five months, by Frank Lafaucherie. Messrs. George Suamans and Travis put the quietus on one hundred and forty-two quail, during a three hours hunt, last Tuesday. Messrs. Heimann and Lafaucherie will leave for San Francisco on next Tuesday. Mr. J. K. Tuffree, left for the same place last Tuesday. THE BANANA.—In describing the articles on exhibition at the pavilion in Los Angeles, the Star says: A banana tree, two years old, with a bunch of unripe fruit pendant from its branches, attracted the observation of all visitors. The tree was grown upon the premises of Elijah Workman, Esq., and we believe it is the first tree of the kind ever brought into bearing order in this section. That is a mistake. On the elegant grounds of Dr. Hardin, can be seen two large banana trees, each bearing a large bunch of the delicious fruit, which has nearly all ripened. Some of the bananas have been ripe for two weeks past, and the fruit, though smaller than that grown in the tropics, possesses an equal flavor and richness. Those which we tasted on Wednesday last, compares favorably with any we ever ate, and it has been our fortune to enjoy this fruit in its own tropical home. If the fruit could be made to ripen about one month earlier, so as to escape the blighting influence of the cold winds which now prevail at night, we have no doubt it would grow as large here as in the tropics. DEEDS FILED.—Francois Riviere to Hiram A. Rawson and Cyrus B. Rawson—100 acres in Rancho Miguel de Los Alisos; $400. Hiram A. Rawson to Jonathan E. Bacon—889 acres in Rancho Miguel; $1.

Mr. J. K. Tuffree, left for the same place last Tuesday, on business for the Land Company. —Mr. Obed Macy has disposed of his saddlery business, and will, we understand, turn his attention to wool-growing. —It would rather astonish our Eastern friends, could they see the beautiful, delicate flowers that are blooming so sweetly in the gardens of Anaheim, even in this cold, chilly month of November. —Prof. Carl Van Gulpen, an old denizen of Anaheim, has accepted the position of private musical tutor, to the children of Lieut. Gov. Pacheco. —San Diego is calling on her back country Dr supplies. F. R. Lafaucherie has shipped to San Diego from Anaheim Landing, 800 sacks of grain during the past two weeks. —From the fact that several springs in San Diego county, which have hitherto been dry, now have flowing water, old Californians predict a wet season. —Messrs. Korn and Mielenz will proceed to San Francisco next week. On their return they will at once commence business as wholesale and retail dealers in wines and liquors. Their place of business will be in the basement of the Old Follows' Hall Building. —D. C. Lawrence, Esq., of the Havilah Miner, has returned from his visit to the Eastern States. In his editorial columns, he promises to make it "hot" for his contemporaries, the Courier and Delta, and in his local columns, he announces himself prepared to pay cash for a limited supply of firewood.

They found twenty true bills and ignored fourteen cases. Before discharging the Grand Jury, His Honor Judge Sepulveda, after alluding to the fact that it was probably the last Grand Jury report he would receive, paid District Attorney Thom a glowing and graceful tribute for his faithful discharge of the onerous duties of his difficult office, remarking that he but added his testimony to what was an universal expression among those who attended Court. “BLINDNESS AND DEATH.”—Under this caption, the San Francisco Real Estate Circular, takes our chicken item as a text from which to preach the following sermon: A fatal malady has appeared among the Anaheim chickens. They get blind and die. A malady has overtaken many of our papers on public questions. They get blind, but unlike the chickens, they do not die.

In his editorial columns, he promises to make it "hot" for his contemporaries, the Courier and Delta, and in his local columns, he announces himself prepared to pay cash for a limited supply of firewood. Does he mean to roast them? —We have been presented with a sweet potatoe, grown on the "sand-patch" of Jones Dyer, which kicked the beam at seven and one-half pounds. As there is a rivalry among our farmers as to whose land can produce the largest "spuds," we expect to acknowledge the receipt of larger ones, next week. —We have received a letter from H. M. Shaw, of Coshocton, Ohio, asking for information as to the whereabouts of his brother-in-law, Lewis F. Bodelle, who has not been heard from since the fall of 1871. Does any of our readers know of his whereabouts? —We had a very pleasant call on last Saturday, from Mr. B. Simon, who is well known among the Anaheim folks. Mr. Simon will, in a few weeks, open a large gens' turnishing store in the Lafayette Hotel Building, in Los Angeles, where he will, no doubt, be visited often by his Anaheim friends. —The following is a list of letters uncalled for, at the Anaheim P.O.: A.

If some of them did die, the city and State would not lag in life and enterprise as they are now doing, and our public policy would no longer be one that induces people to cut off their nose to spite their face. RICHLAND ITEMS. — There are twelve new houses in course of construction at Richland... The number of fruit trees that will be set out during the coming season, is almost incredible. One person alone has ordered $6000 worth... One of the reservoirs of the Semi Tropic Water Company, capable of holding eight million gallons of water, will be completed in a few days. A second one is offered for contract. DEATH. —A Mr. Waters, of Pennsylvania, who came a few months ago to this country, in the last stages of consumption, died on Tuesday at Riverside. His remains were brought to this place and encased in a metallic coffin, in order that the body may be shipped to his family in the East. He was buried temporarily at Westminster yesterday. A NEW GRANGE. — We understand that a Grange has been organized at Westminster. We are surprised that our correspondent, who is generally diligent in collating news items for us, has failed to send the particulars. THE WATER QUESTION. A Letter From Mr. Hunter—A Sympathy of a Hill drawn by him. Miller Southern California: In looking over your paper from week to week, I am much pleased to note the interest taken in the water question by you, and yet I must confess, I feel somewhat disappointed in not seeing what to me appears a matter of vital importance to this southern country—some views put forward and discussed through the Press, relative to the mode of constructing irrigating ditches; that is, from what source money can be obtained, wherewith to construct the ditches. Some say the State should contribute at least a portion of the money necessary; some again say that joint stock companies should do the work. I am only a comparative stranger in the country, but since my settlement here, I have given the matter a careful consideration, and must say, that I certainly think it devolves upon the State to aid such enterprises liberally. As to joint stock companies constructing the ditches, looking at this as I do, in a farmer's point of view, I confess I cannot see how water can be supplied at a cost within the means of most of us. I have been told that the law in this matter, allows as high interest as 18 per cent on the outlay, and men of capital on this coast seem generally of the belief GRANGE CORP. I want to be a Grange. And with the Granges stand-- A horny listed farmer. With a hay-stock in my hand. Beneath the tall tomato tree, I'll swing the glittering hole. And snite the wild potato-bug As he skips over the snow. I've bought myself a Darham ram And a gray alpaca cow. A look-witch orange hedge And a patent leather plow. The Grangers are about establishing a reaper factory in Des Moines. The publication of an organ of the Patrons of Husbandry has been commenced at Red Wing, Minnesota. Grant County, Indiana, has a Grange of colored husbandmen. There are 158 Granges in Ohio. Warren county has 16, Green and Clinton 15 each, Clermont 8, Montgomery, Clark and Miami, 6 each. The others are scattered through the southern and central parts of the State. The farmers' movement progresses still. "Gros grain" rustling in the parlors of railway magnates, must in the future depend more for its qualities upon the will of those who grow grain in the fields. The most effective Grange orator is Julia Garretson. She speaks from the same platform as the Master of the National Grange, and, it is said, beats him every time. The second quarterly meeting of the District Council, Patrons of Husbandry, for Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties, was held at Gallatin on Tuesday, at which business of a private and public nature was transacted.

THE undersigned begs leave to inform all of tomers and patrons of the CITY-BAKERY that it will malinterrupted by him. CHARLES HILL NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT Anaheim Water Company. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN TO THE SHIP-holders in the Anaheim Water Company, to all parties interested, that at a meeting on Saturday, October 23rd, 1873, the Board Trustees levied an assessment of fifty (50) per acre on the capital stock of said company payable in U.S. Gold Coin, on or before the 2nd day of November, 1878, to the Irasser, Woerler, at his residence. And it is further ordered that any stock which said assessment remains unpaid, on the 25th of November, 1873, shall be deemed de enterprises liberally. As to joint stock companies constructing the ditches, looking at this as I do, in a farmer's point of view, I confess I cannot see how water can be supplied at a cost within the means most of us. I have been told that the law in this matter, allows as high interest as 18 per cent on the outlay, and men of capital on this coast seem generally of the belief that money is worth all they can get, whether from rich or poor. Some three months ago, I wrote a rough sketch of a law on the point, but I have not had the time necessary to write it over and make it fit for publication in your paper, as I intended. However, I will endeavor to lay before your readers, a synopsis of the law in question, and would state, that should it meet the views of friends who are of the opinion that legislative aid is necessary, I shall be happy to meet them at any time, and lay my views on the water question fully before them. It is my firm belief, that the whole matter should be left to the counties to deal with. Thus:—The Legislature to give power to the Board of Supervisors of any county in the State; when that body may originate a law for the purpose; failing this, any fifty or more tax-payers in any part of any county in the State, may petition the Board, setting forth and asking that a section of the county be set apart as the water district of—and defining the limits thereof by some known lines; and further that a law may be read a first time and submitted to the voters of the said district, for their approval. The sum of money necessary to construct an irrigating ditch from some river or lake, to be named. Should such a petition be presented, and a law be submitted and adopted by the people, the Board will order an election of three Water Trustees, to whom will belong the power to do all things necessary in the premises, in constructing the works. The Board of Supervisors will cause to be issued, Bonds of the county for the amount voted, payable in twenty yearly installments. The interest will be who grow grain in the fields. The most effective Grange orator is Julia Garretson. She speaks from the same platform as the Master of the National Grange, and, it is said, beats him every time. The second quarterly meeting of the District Council, Patrons of Husbandry, for Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties, was held at Gallatin on Tuesday, at which business of a private and public nature was transacted. All the Granges in the District—fifteen in number—were represented, J. Q. A. Stanley, of Los Angeles, was elected District Agent. The Granges will celebrate the Order's birthday with a harvest feast, etc., near Gallatin, on the 4th of December. The next session of the Council will be held at Gallatin on the second Tuesday of February, 1874. We have received from New York a fascinating periodical entitled The Pen and Plow, published in the interests of us agriculturists. The head is an enticing vignette of a delightful landscape, with fishing and swimming conveniences in the distance. In the foreground lovingly recline a male Granger and a female ditto, who sympathize with the movements of a plowman in the centre, while they converse and read—and—well, carry on the agricultural business in the most attractive manner imaginable. The offer of that farm and its accompaniments as a premium would induce us to subscribe for The Pen and Plow. The face of the female is turned from the spectator, but, if we may judge by the set of her back hair, she is exactly the style of a Flora to floor us.—Er. A correspondent writes from Reading, Pa.: "Immediately after the close of the session of the State Grange here, I had a conversation with J. Wilkinson, of Iowa, the Deputy of the National Grange, who has labored in Pennsylvania during the past few months, and been instrumental in the organization of twenty-five subordinate Granges, the Masters of which will compose the State Grange. Mr. Wilkinson spoke substantially as follows: "Subordinate Granges are being organized at present throughout the United States at the rate of thirty-six a day. We, as an organization don't propose to act politically; our object is not to form a political party. We don't propose to put at any time candidates for office into the field, but I can conceive a combination of circumstances that would compel us to do so. However, such circumstances are not likely to arise. Two members of a Grange can be equally in..." named. Should such a petition be presented, and a law be submitted and adopted by the people, the Board will order an election of three Water Trustees, to whom will belong the power to do all things necessary in the premises, in constructing the works. The Board of Supervisors will cause to be issued, Bonds of the county for the amount voted, payable in twenty yearly installments. The interest will be paid on the outstanding Bonds, annually; the funds necessary to enable the county Treasurer to pay the bonds and interest, shall be levied and collected from the whole rateable property of the said Water District, and the said tax shall be collected in the same manner as other taxes are. These are the main points in my sketch. The law, I wrote out more fully, and took much pains with it, and may, in some future issue of your paper, publish it, as my intentions are to incorporate the same with the statute giving power to the counties to deal with the matter. Awaiting the result in hope, I remain, Your Obedient Serv't, John Hunter. Anaheim, November 10th., 1873. Taxes—Sheriff Rowland will be at the office of J. W. Clark, in Anaheim, on Friday and Saturday, November 28th and 29th., for the purpose of collecting the State and county taxes for the fiscal year 1878 and '74. Unless they are paid before the first Monday in January next, they will become delinquent, and five per cent will be added to the amount. "Subordinate Granges are being organized at present throughout the United States at the rate of thirty-six a day. We, as an organization don't propose to act politically; our object is not to form a political party. We don't propose to put at any time candidates for office into the field, but I can conceive a combination of circumstances that would compel us to do so. However, such circumstances are not likely to arise. Two members of a Grange can be equally in good standing, although they hold opposite views on the tariff question. That is a question we do not discuss; we leave a man politically free to exercise his own judgment. The tariff question is of a partisan character. "The farmers of Eastern Pennsylvania have to some extent the same causes of complaint, with respect to railroad transportation, which the farmers of the Western States have. They have the same causes, so far as the control of the State and National legislation has been attempted and exercised by railroad monopolies. They have just cause for complaint in some sections of Eastern Pennsylvania on account of exorbitant rates and the fuel monopoly. A committee will be appointed to attend to the fuel-monopoly question. This question will come up, but the members will not be prepared to discuss it fully before the next meeting of the State Grange in January next." Job Printing.—We invite an inspection of the many elegant specimens of printing produced from our job department during the past few weeks. Our specialties are bill-heads, letter-heads, cards and circulars. We have unequalled facilities for work of that description, and having new type, new press, and a competent printer, we can guarantee satisfaction. GENERAL MERCHANDISE. A.
