Anaheim Gazette SATURDAY...DECEMBER 26, 1874 His Majesty of Hawaii, it appears, combines business with pleasure in accepting the hospitalities of the great American people, and proposes to leave his autograph among us in the shape of a promise to pay $1,000,000—if he can borrow that much. Dame Rumor has it that Senator Jones has purchased a three-fourths interest in the San Vieiente ranch. And if that venerable lady states the matter correctly it appears more than probable that the Truxton railroad will yet become unfit accompli. The third-term talk has evidently aoned the patriotic fears of Senator Wright of Iowa. A bill has been introduced in Congress by him fixing each Presidential term at six years and making each President inelegible for re-election. The bill also provides that the chief magistrates shall be voted for directly by the people. It appears that the person, whom Squidiah delivered to the English authorities in India, was Nena Sahib after all. To arrest him it required the assistance of a regiment of cavalry, another of infantry, and a battery of artillery. He is now safe and fast in jail, however, and he will be tried at Cawnpore, the scene of his infamies. The present month has been rather disastrous to the financial condition of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. The Congressional investigation of where that $750,000 went, the loss of the steamer Japan by fire, and the accident to the Atlantic steamer Colon have combined to reduce the value of stock in that company to THE INDEPENDENCE RAILROAD. Through the courtesy of Col. Crawford, Chief Engineer of the Los Angeles and Independence Railroad, we have been shown certain facts and figures in connection with the enterprise, of which he is the managing head, which present the subject in an entirely new light, and one which looks most favorably to a successful conclusion. We find in looking over a table of distances, placed by him at our disposal, and compiled from official figures of the Southern and Central Pacific Railways that via the Central Pacific Railroad San Francisco is 1,330 miles distant from Ogden, and that via the Southern Pacific Railroad and Los Angeles the distance between these two places is only 1,150 miles, or a saving of distance in favor of the route, of which the Independence Railroad will constitute a section, of over two hundred miles. This latter route will comprise, first, the Southern Pacific Railroad from San Francisco to Los Angeles, 480 miles in length; second, the Los Angeles and Independence Railway; and third, a road extending from Ogden through Salt Lake City in a southerly direction and designed to tap the Texas and Pacific Railroad at the nearest available point. It will be seen that, with the exception of a gap of about 250 miles between the terminus of the Independence and the Salt Lake roads, this route has actually been located and active work is either in progress or is contemplated to commence at an early date. Viewed in this light—as a connecting link in a great through railway between the eastern and western shores of the continent, the Independence Railroad presenta itself most favorably, not alone to the citizens of Los Angeles, but to the entire Pacific slope, and commends itself from its national importance, not alone to the attention of the capitalist, but as a suitable enterprise for the be- Major C.

He is now safe and fast in jail, however, and he will be tried at Cawnpore, the scene of his infamies. The present month has been rather disastrous to the financial condition of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company. The Congressional investigation of where that $750,000 went, the loss of the steamer Japan by fire, and the accident to the Atlantic steamer Colon have combined to reduce the value of stock in that company to rather low ebb. The Democracy of Los Angeles county, and more particularly those of that ilk whose lot in life has been cast in its capital city, have already began to shake up the political kaleidescope. As usual when they look to see who works an office, the field of the instrument is filled with expectants; but they do not succeed well in getting a good shake on the successful candidate. State advices from Louisiana state that the Returning Board have succeeded in reducing the Conservative majority in the State House of Representatives to two. This they have done by consistently and systematically throwing out the vote of all parishes, where the Conservatives were in the ascendancy; and notwithstanding the great courtesy manifested towards the white citizens of Louisiana, in allowing them to vote at all, the Committee of Seventy still complain. The Healdsburg Flag publishes the following, which may prove valuable to litigants: The law of this State is that no firm or company not incorporated doing business in this State shall have a standing in court until there shall have been a four week's publication of the full name of all the members of the concern. Some weeks ago Walker & Davis, of Cloverdale, had a car-load of hay burned. They sued the railroad company for the value of the hay, and were non-suited on the ground that they had not made the publication of partnership required by law.

Just after the close of the war cotton, which had been sold for Confederate bonds and which was claimed by the original owners on account of no valuable consideration having been received, was seized and retained by the Federal authorities as public property, acquired by legal purchase by a legal purchaser. It's the old story of the division of the game by the Indian and white man—You take the buzzard and I'll take the turkey; or I'll take the turkey and you take the buzzard. The prevalence of high winds for the past month and the continued absence of rain have brought out in full force the prognosticators of dry seasons. And it must be confessed that the failure of the Christmas rains affords good grounds for a reasonable apprehension of an unfavorable year. However around Anaheim and through the entire section of the valley extending from Anaheim to the sea on the south and to the San Gabriel river on the west, dry years do not now possess the terrifying significance of former years. This independence has been created by the success which has attained every effort to obtain artesian waters. In scarcely a single instance has there been a failure to obtain flowing wells in the tract to which we refer and which embraces within its limits over one hundred thousand acres of land. Every day we hear of new wells being obtained, and it has been thoroughly demonstrated beyond the shadow all a doubt that this valley is independent of the weather. Major C. N. Wilson has assumed a bounty land warrant for Augustus Leippe who served during the Mexican war in Stevenson's California Regiment. Mr. Leippe resides in Anaheim, and was a comrade in the same company with John Schumacher. Pete Thompson and other old times—Express. The Cuamonga Vineyard Company have just concluded their year's work, and have put away in the most admirable style, 97,500 gallons of that famous beverage. Their cellar is as clean as a well cared for parlor, well ventilated and looks as though it covered an acre of ground. The vintage of 1874, with the care bestowed on it, is expected to fully sustain its ancient reputation. Mr. Davis informs us that having failed to find apples and pears to continue his preserving works in operation, he turned his attention to procuring vegetables. But, strange as it may appear, a most critical search through our suburbs failed to procure a supply. The fact is, we still import large quantities of vegetables from San Francisco, something which is not at all to the credit of a region with a garden soil of unsurpassed richness—Express. At the last meeting of the Board of Directors of the Grange Co-operative Company, the General Manager was instructed to establish a Branch at Orange at once. The preliminary steps are already taken in that direction and before the first of January the store will probably be in operation. J. W. Anderson has been selected as Branch Manager, and we feel confident that the trust has been worthily conferred. Mr. Anderson is a man of strict business integrity, and has the confidence of the Patrons in his section of the country.—Mutual Aid. We received a letter from W. H. Toler, of Memphis, Tennessee, last Tuesday, dated Dec. 1st. Mr. T. was in Los Angeles county last September, and purchased a place in the Richland section. He says: "A large party of us are trying to get ready to start for your place by the middle of January; and after our party gets there and locates, a great many more will follow us next summer. Since my return to Tennessee, I find that a great California fever is spreading throughout this country such as has not been known before."—Wilmington Enterprise, There are seventy Congregational churches in California. Senior Fish now has under consideration a reciprocity treaty with the Hawaiian islands. King Kalahua is also endeavoring to make a loan of a million dollars at Washington. A new dam at Haydenville, Mass., gave way last Saturday morning. This dam was built to replace the one swept away last May. No lives were lost. The Board of Directors' of the Los Angeles Immigration and Land Cooperative Association have levied an assessment of $250 upon each share of the capital stock. Von Arnim has been sentenced to three months imprisonment. The prosecution and defense have both appealed. The case will come up in the higher court in about three months. Judge John H. Yellots, of the Circuit Court of Baltimore County, Md., has begun a suit against the Baltimore American for libel, for criticism of his action on the bench. Damages claimed $50,000. A Mormon Judge pleaded guilty in the Salt Lake District Court, to an indictment charging him with receiving votes of aliens, minors and dead men at the election for Delegate, and was sentenced to the Penitentiary for one month. Twenty thousand people assembled at Carson City, Nevada, on Friday last to witness the execution of John Murphy. A reprieve arrived, however, just as the crowd were making way for the carriage containing the culprit. The object of the reprieve was to examine into the question of insanity. There are three cases upon the dock of the Supreme Court of the United States which involve the entire Granger question in the northwest, and which were brought to test the constitutionality of the restrictive state legislation against railroads. One of these cases will probably be argued in February. Wm. M. Evarts and E. W. Stoughton will represent the railroads. A new criminal suit has been commenced against Wm. M. Tweed, in which Edward Morreno is joined as defendant on behalf of the city to recover from both $55,000, alleged to have been fraudulently charged by Morreno for expense to the street department and fraudulently certified to by Tweed, as SPECIAL NOTICES TO RENT.

A new company has been organized to build a cheap railroad to the sea, just this side of Truxton, where a donation of land has been made to the enterprise by Mrs. Lucas. This company is composed so far entirely of our own people. About $30,000 has been subscribed, and it is estimated that less than $100,000 will build the wharf and road they contemplate. Ex-Mayor Toberman has been chosen President, and a meeting was held Saturday afternoon which was very practical and very determined. There is no collateral or incidental speculation in this road, beyond the legitimate road itself. It is a movement based solely on giving our city and the intervening country a competitive line to the sea, whereby aid of a wharf to deep water ship and rail can be brought together. NEWS IN BRIEF.

"Centinela" is made up of one broad, level fertile valley of over twenty thousand acres and beautiful, fertile rolling hills near the Ocean. Soil. The soil is an exceedingly fertile loam, and is without exception, the richest and most productive in Southern California. Its viability to the ocean insures a crop without irrigation. Excellent what has been raised for the last two years upon the hills adjoining the ocean. This whit held contains 1,000 acres and covers the lightest soil upon the Rancho. There is no alkali or barren land. Semi-Tropical Fruits. There are a few bearing orange and lime trees upon the Centinela, and the fruit thy produce is of the largest and finest quality. There is an orchard containing 6,000 orange trees three years old, and 1,700 almond, lime and lemon trees. The almond, lime and lemon trees will bear fruit in 1875. The orange trees will bear five years. There are 7,000 three year old orange trees in the nursery near the orchard. Fig pepper and gourn trees grow without irrigation. The entire orchard can be taken care of by three men with six horses. The orchard will be kept undivided by the Company, to save the expense of each shareholder having a few trees to take care of. Each share will entitle the owner to about 15 trees in the orchard and about the same number in the nursery. The almond, lime and lemon trees will yield an immediate return. In five years each orange tree will produce $20 per annum, or $30 per share for those now planted. There are flowers in the garden in bloom every day in the year. Sheep. A flock of about 14,000 sheep will be kept undivided to save expense to the shareholders. This will give about 30 sheep to each share. The sheep will produce an increase and wool over $2 each yearly, over expenses. They will be grazed upon outlying and unshelled lands of the company. The "no fence" law is in force in Los Angeles county. Climate. The climate of the "Centinela" is without exception the finest and most equable in the world. It varies but little throughout the year.
