Southern Californian GEO. C. KNOX... EDITOR. SATURDAY, MARCH 21, 1874. A WHARF AT ANAHEIM LANDING. The rapidly increasing trade, which finds its natural outlet through Anaheim Landing, requires additional facilities to those offered by the Lighter Company. In two ways can this be done; either by an increase in the number of their lighters, or by the erection of a wharf. By the adoption of the first method there will be required at least three new lighters, which will involve an outlay on the part of the Lighter Company of between ten and twelve thousand dollars, and will require almost double the number of lightermen, at present employed; on the other hand, a wharf can be constructed to an anchorage, seventeen feet in depth at low tide, at an estimated cost of twenty-eight thousand dollars, and can be operated with the same force, which is now used. Two or three considerations have combined to prevent the adoption of the wharf system. The first was the large amount of money, requisite for its construction; another was a doubt whether the wharf would permanently withstand the gales, which sometimes prevail. This doubt, however, has been settled by the experiments which have been tried at other points on the Pacific coast. Even at places which are not sheltered by outlying islands as at Anaheim Landing, it has been demonstrated that wharves could be permanently constructed; consequently there can exist but one valid reason, which would prevent the adoption of this plan—the cost of construction. In the last two months outside parties have been agitating the subject. Michael Reese has obtained COUNTY DIVISION On the reception of the recent early part of the week, creating Orange county had adversely upon by the Assessor even the most sanguine measure felt that quite a few then given to the project present session of the Legislature disappointment was the most much as for quite a while deliberation of the committee of its members leaned toward of the bill. However, active measures were at once resuscitate the matter if possible will be seen from telegrams published in the papers of Tuesday: SACRAMENTO Senator Martin, of Place reintroduced the bill to create of Orange out of the south county of Los Angeles strong lobby force working its passage before the close. Wm. R. Olden, the age Angeles and San Bernardino citation, left here on Tu thoroughly prepared with wherewith to prove that the relief contemplated by the bill, was based upon social grounds, and also w properly authenticated, among our citizens desired the county. The Express, in its issuance makes use of a personal had arisen indirectly out of prove that "honest sentiment is violently suppressed," trially that "at the south county a reign of terror exerted to this question which vicall expression of our friend would permanently withstand the gales, which sometimes prevail. This doubt, however, has been settled by the experiments which have been tried at other points on the Pacific coast. Even at places which are not sheltered by outlying islands as at Anaheim Landing, it has been demonstrated that wharves could be permanently constructed; consequently there can exist but one valid reason, which would prevent the adoption of this plan—the cost of construction. In the last two months outside parties have been agitating the subject. Michael Reese has obtained from the Board of Supervisors a franchise for the erection of a wharf between Anaheim Landing creek and the mouth of the New San Gabriel river, and an examination has been made of the anchorage in front of Las Bolsas creek, with the same purpose in view. These operations may have been based upon no earnest purpose, still the fact, that the exigencies of our trade afford a pretext for agitating the subject, should influence the Lighter Company to give the matter careful consideration. San Bernardino has always been favorably disposed to the Landing, and would no doubt take some of the stock, if it was found necessary to increase the present working capital of the company. In a former article we have alluded to the practicability of the construction of a narrow-guage railroad to San Bernardino. With this road and with a wharf at Anaheim Landing, it would be rendered financially impossible for any competition to arise against the Lighter Company. At present they are at least threatened with serious injury. THE SNOW BLOCKADE During the whole of the present month the employees of the Central Pacific railroad have been engaged in futilely attempting to war against the snow-king in his own dominions. They have succeeded again and again in achieving a temporary success, but followed always by signal defeat. The construction of the Central Pacific was a triumph of engineering science; the fortifications, which have been erected to resist the ravages of the wintry elements, have been constructed without regard to expense and with all the resisting strength, known to the scientific world; to build the road and protect it from destruction, private enterprise has been aided in the most liberal manner with national capital; with what avail the events of the four winters, which have passed since the final completion of the road show most conclusively. The Directors of the Central Pacific have been stigmatized as monopolists, extortionists, and cormorants preying upon the necessities of the people, but such terms can only be used by those who are ignorant of the difficulties with which they have had to contend, and of the enormous outlay of The Express, in its issue makes use of a personal word had arisen indirectly out of prove that "honest sentiment is violently suppressed," or rather that "at the south county a reign of terror exists in this question which views all expression of our friendly suicidal act." We, of this will admit that we know and substantial men, living New San Gabriel river limits of the proposed course who are honestly, and opposed to a division of outside of this number who does not benefit would accrue to our separation from the city. In refutation of the assesthe class of men, who are subject of county division, Express in the editorial title alluded, we can draw attention that Wm R. Olden, the Anglese and San Bernardino company is our accredited Sacramento, that he is the tion of that company and using their influence in measure. We would also that the CALIFORNIAN, unmanagement, has always divided, and that the paper are sufficiently selfish to advise that is unpalatable to them. The only assertion, we made by the Express is that Angeles is deeply interested in division of the citizens should move a strating against the means first clause is correct: the Express in affirming city possesses the deep keeping the country pro thralldom, in which they been held; but we assert to us of the country that should be continued in its us to do all and to receive evidence of the truth of we refer to the admitted thousand voters, who pay that city, and that we repli lions of dollars of taxable evidence that we rece point to many internals made by the county, im Los Angeles, and to the with county funds, which citizens of the county, but arteries to direct rem destruction, private enterprise has been aided in the most liberal manner with national capital; with what avail the events of the four winters, which have passed since the final completion of the road show most conclusively. The Directors of the Central Pacific have been stigmatized as monopolists, extortionists, and cormorants preying upon the necessities of the people, but such terms can only be used by those who are ignorant of the difficulties with which they have had to contend, and of the enormous outlay of money, which is yearly required of them. We see by the Sacramento Record that "the receipts of the Company from the business of the region, embraced in the snow belt, since the 1st of December, 1873, have reached only $18,866, whilst the expense, of operating that portion of the line, during the same period, amounted to $330,000." We opine that a careful investigation of railroad affairs in this State will show that there has been no culpability on the part of our railroad kings, and that their seeming extortions have been necessitated by the unequal war, in which they are almost continually engaged; at the same time it will be demonstrated that railways through the snow belt are for all practical operations a failure, and that the requirements of commerce imperatively demand the construction of a line of rail through that portion of the continent, unassailed by the resistless attacks of the snow king. Private enterprise, even under the direction of the most successful of railroad men of the day, has failed in supplying this sadly needed want. An appeal has been made for national aid. This appeal should be heard and granted. It is the nation asking from itself, and it would be but a suicide policy, which would refuse even a permanent outlay of money in the furtherance of so good a cause. AN OVERSIGHT. We notice that the present Legislature has followed the example set them in the past, in disregarding any conflict which may arise between their enactments and Constitutional provisions. Our attention has been called to the matter by hearing it intimated that the irrigation bill passed for this county, interferes with riparian rights, guaranteed by the State Constitution, we admit a minority, but we assume sufficient numbers to raise we appeal to the Legislature, which we are without their assistance cause upon facts and find the records of the court strate against any remnant interested majority, upon the same official COUNTY DIVISION. On the reception of the news during the early part of the week, that the bill creating Orange county had been reported adversely upon by the Assembly committee, given the most sanguine friends of the measure felt that quite a serious blow had been given to the project during the present session of the Legislature. The appointment was the more severe in such as for quite a while during the deliberation of the committee a majority of its members leaned towards an approval of the bill. However, active and energetic measures were at once inaugurated to instigate the matter if possible, with what result will be seen from the following telegram, published in the Los Angeles papers of Tuesday: SACRAMENTO, March 17. Senator Martin, of Placer county, has introduced the bill to create the county of Orange, out of the southern portion of the county of Los Angeles, and there is a strong lobby force working earnestly for passage before the close of the session. Wm. R. Olden, the agent of the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Association, left here on Tuesday morning, thoroughly prepared with facts and figures, wherewith to prove that the demand for the relief, contemplated by the passage of the bill, was based upon solid and substantial grounds, and also with documents properly authenticated, showing who among our citizens desired the division of the county. The Express, in its issue of Tuesday, makes use of a personal difficulty, which had arisen indirectly out of the subject to prove that "honest sentiment in the subject is violently suppressed," and states editorially that "at the southern end of the county a reign of terror exists in reference to this question which violently represses all expression of our friends against the GLEANINGS. Admiral Porter is very ill. Prince Kalakua has been elected king of the Hawaiian Isles. Farmers are engaged in raising hops in the Payallny Valley, W. T. A Postoffice has been established at Nordhoff, Ventura county. The Turkish Admiralty has ordered an iron-clad to be built in England. The "William Taber" is now running as an opposition boat between San Francisco and Portland. The Bishop of Pernambuco has been sentenced to four years' imprisonment for resisting the law. A twenty-mile trotting race will come off over the Oakland race track about the 1st of April. Mrs. Julia Hastings of San Francisco is the only sister of the late Senator Sumner. The principal candidates for Senator, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Sumner, are Dawes, Adams, Hoar and Banks. Bald Mountain, in the western portion of North Carolina, is reported in eruption, and people are fleeing from its base. One hundred and seventy passengers have been swept from the deck of a steamer in a gale in the Mediterranean Sea. Six penny telegrams are to be introduced in England, and half penny letter postage. As a rule, the papers do not approve of the plan. The wheat prospects in Great Britain are better. The imports into the United Kingdom for the week ending February 15th were NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

STINE District School Trustees. Tustin City, Cal., March 17, 1874. Enterprise Hall! Two Nights Only First appearance in Anaheim of the most successful and FAVORITE STAR ALLIANCE: FAY TEMPLETON. The wonderful and celebrated eight year old artists, acknowledged by the entire press of New York and San Francisco, the greatest little actress and songstress in the world.

JOHN TEMPLETON, Author and Comedian—Assisted by ISABEL VANE and artists from San Francisco, now making the tour of the entire Pacific coast, having already appeared with immense success at San Francisco, Sacramento, Stockton, San Jose, Virginia City, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, San Diego, etc. etc. The performance will commence with the beautiful Comedy-Drama of CUBA; No War With Spain. The bill was based upon solid and substantial grounds, and also with documents properly authenticated, showing who among our citizens desired the division of the county. The Express, in its issue of Tuesday, makes use of a personal difficulty, which had arisen indirectly out of the subject to prove that "honest sentiment in the subject is violently suppressed," and states editorially that "at the southern end of the county a reign of terror exists in reference to this question which violently represses all expression of our friends against the suicidal act." We, of the Californian, will admit that we know four very worthy and substantial men, living south of the New San Gabriel river and within the limits of the proposed county of Orange, who are honestly, and conscientiously opposed to a division of the county, but outside of this number we do not know anyone who does not believe that great benefit would accrue to our citizens by a separation from the city of Los Angeles. In refutation of the assertion, regarding the class of men, who are agitating the subject of county division, made by the Express in the editorial to which we have alluded, we can draw attention to the fact that Wm R. Olden, the agent of the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company is our accredited representative at Sacramento, that he is there with the sanction of that company and is undoubtedly using their influence in behalf of the measure. We would also point to the fact that the Californian, under the present management, has always advocated county division, and that the proprietors of the paper are sufficiently experienced and sufficiently selfish to advocate no measure that is unpalatable to their patrons. The only assertion, worthy of notice made by the Express is that the city of Los Angeles is deeply interested in the prevention of a division of the county, and that its citizens should move actively in remonstrating against the measure. We admit the first clause is correct and unite with the Express in affirming that Los Angeles city possesses the deepest interest in keeping the country precincts under the thralldom, in which they have so long been held; but we assert that it is unjust to us of the country that Los Angeles should be continued in its power to compel us to do all and to receive nothing. As an evidence of the truth of our performance, we refer to the admitted fact that we are a thousand voters, who pay yearly tribute to that city, and that we represent three millions of dollars of taxable property; as an evidence that we receive nothing, we point to the many internal improvements, made by the county, immediately around Los Angeles, and to the roads, constructed with county funds, which do no good to citizens of the county, but serve merely as arteries to direct remote trades to Los One hundred and seventy passengers have been swept from the deck of a steamer in a gale in the Mediterranean Sea. Six penny telegrams are to be introduced in England, and half penny letter postage. As a rule, the papers do not approve of the plan. The wheat prospects in Great Britain are better. The imports into the United Kingdom for the week ending February 15th were 1,026,523 centals. Luttrell has presented a memorial of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce asking an increase of the duty on imported cheap wines. The number of prisoners in the Colorado penitentiary is exactly the same as the number of the members of the Legislature. The Prussian Cross-Gazette estimates that the Reichstag will be dissolved if it persists in its refusal to fix the ordinary strength of the army at 400,000 men as demanded by the Government. In many of the foot-bill counties skirting the Sierras, genuine natural coffee is growing in abundance. The plant is indigenous to the soil and grows luxuriantly. A new style of boy's trowers has been invented in Boston, with a copper seat, sheet iron knees, riveted down the seams, and water-proof pockets to hold broken eggs. The longest inmate of the California penitentiary is Peter Metz, who was convicted of murder in the second degree and committed for life in 1858. There are eight woollen mills in California, located as follows: two at San Francisco, one at Sacramento, one at Marysville, one at Stockton, one at San Jose, one at Los Gatos, and one at Los Angeles. R.J. Stovans, a Protestant minister, was killed by a mob of Mexicans at a town in the State of Jalisco, instigated by priests, who told the people to exterminate the Protestants. There was no election for Governor by the people of New Hampshire at the recent gubernatorial election. It will be necessary, therefore, for the Legislature to elect. Los Angeles city has re-caught the railroad fever. One road is proposed from Los Angeles to Independence, and another from Shoo Fly Landing to Los Angeles is being surveyed by Col. Crawford, lately of the Texas & Pacific corps of engineers. As an evidence of the truth of our performance, we refer to the admitted fact that we are a thousand voters, who pay yearly tribute to that city, and that we represent three millions of dollars of taxable property; as an evidence that we receive nothing, we point to the many internal improvements, made by the county, immediately around Los Angeles, and to the roads, constructed with county funds, which do no good to citizens of the county, but serve merely as arteries to direct remote trades to Los Angeles city, and call attention to the total absence of any improvement south of the New San Gabriel river. If the county should be divided, it will be necessary for the old county to more economically administer their finances, and if distant localities—as for instance the new district of Pannamit, somewhere in the neighborhood of Nevada—are to be connected with Los Angeles by costly roads, or if it is necessary to make the approaches to the city through covered ways, it must be done by the citizens, who receive the benefit. We do not believe, and do not assert that our friends and neighbors of Los Angeles are corrupt or criminal, but we do believe, that, obeying the instincts of human nature,—their self-interest has caused them to become blind to the duties, which are incumbent from them to us. It is undisputed that, where two diametrically opposing interests are united, the larger will always act prejudicially to the smaller. These are the relations which exist between the city and county of Los Angeles, and our complaints are made in consequence of this prejudiced action. We are prepared to prove that we are able to sustain a separate county government, and that we will not ruin our neighbors of Los Angeles city; we admit that we constitute a minority, but we assert that we are in sufficient numbers to receive attention, and we appeal to the Legislature for that protection, which we are powerless to secure without their assistance. We rest our cause upon facts and figures, taken from the records of the county, and we remonstrate against any remonstrance, made by an interested majority, unless it is based upon the same official data. There was no election for Governor by the people of New Hampshire at the recent gubernatorial election. It will be necessary, therefore, for the Legislature to elect. Los Angeles city has re-caught the railroad fever. One road is proposed from Los Angeles to Independence, and another from Shoo Fly Landing to Los Angeles is being surveyed by Col. Crawford, lately of the Texas & Pacific corps of engineers. In the Assembly on Saturday last, the special committee for Inyo, Los Angeles, Kern and San Bernardino counties reported in favor of the bill for a railroad from Independence, Inyo county, to Los Angeles. The rules were suspended and the bill passed. It provides that $20,000 must be expended within twelve months. The financial condition of the Australian colonies appears to be very satisfactory. New South Wales has a credit balance of nearly $10,000,000, and Queensland shows a surplus of revenue over expenditures, for the past two years of $1,100,000. The grain harvest has also been very plentiful, and large quantities of wheat will be sent to England, while the wool clip has also been very large. The House Committee on Military Affairs have completed the army reduction bill. The number of regiments of infantry is to be twenty instead of twenty-five, of artillery four instead of five, of cavalry eight instead of ten, a decrease of eight regiments in all, and 5,000 enlisted men, leaving the aggregate 25,000 instead of 30,000. Officers rendered supernumerary by the consolidation of regiments are not to be mustered out, but are to be retained in the service, and absorbed into remaining regiments as vacancies occur; and, to facilitate the process of absorption, a premium of a full year's pay is offered to all officers who resign.
