WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...AUGUST 11, 1877. Church Meetings. FIRST. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH REGULAR services at 11 A.M., and 7:20 P.M. Sunday School 10 A.M. Meeting for practice in Conventional enclosing and for Bible study, at 11 A.M., Sunday Bethalion at 11 A.M. Kleinigkeiten. [FROM WEDNESDAY'S DAILY.] —A wagon load of milch goats passed through town yesterday bound for Orange. —Owing to the high protective tariff times were dull in town yesterday, and we were unable to gather many items. —Mr. P. A. Clark will erect an Eclipse windmill on the Cemetery grounds today. These mills are fast finding favor with our people. —The surveyors employed by the new Cajon Irrigating Company arrived last evening, and will commence their labor this morning. —We would respectfully suggest to the candidates that they issue drink tickets to the "loya" instead of treating so often, so that when they go away they won't feel so lonely. —R. M. Parham announces himself as a candidate for Constable. The fact cannot be disputed that Dick has been a very efficient officer, and in the transaction of civil business he has no superior. —The prospect of Charley Miles, for County Recorder, seems to be an unusually good one and we are safe in predicting that he will occupy the office he has so well filled, for two years more at least. —The Democratic Central Committee ordered that the county ticket and the advertisement of the meetings to be held should —Mr. Bohn, the nightwatchman, met with a strange accident yesterday while in the discharge of his official duties. He was assisting to place a key of beer in proper position for us, when the long flew out and struck the dongly officer in the nose, inflicting an unightly but not serious injury. —Express Last Monday two Mexicans who were hunting in the Solidad Canyon near Ravenna, were set upon by a huge grizzly bear, and a fierce and manginary conflict followed, resulting in the death of the bear, the mortal wounding of one of the men and the serious wounding of the other. It is said that the man worst hurt had his face chewed into a shapeless mass by the bear. He is at the County Hospital and it is thought that he cannot possibly live. The other had one of his arms terribly lacerated. The grizzly was one of the largest ever seen in Los Angeles county. —The Republican of yesterday morning contained the following: Until the recent combination between the Railroad Company and the Steamship Company, Anaheim and the surrounding country enjoyed the benefits of the weekly steamship communications. No steamship will hereafter call there, and all hands will be compelled to hand their freight by wagon to Anaheim depot, and submit to such exactions as the Railroad Company may see fit to impose. We are informed that, until the combination was effected, Inglestone from Anaheim to San Francisco was put at six dollars per ton, while from Los Angeles to Michoacán—one-fifth of the distance—the was fifteen dollars per fount. But this low figure was only adopted to kill the Anaheim lighter Co. Having accomplished its destruction by compelling the withdrawal of the steamers, the way is now clear to advance freights to whatever the Railway cormorants please. This would be very distressing if it were true, but the Republic is evidently mistaken in its statement of facts. The steamer Senator makes weekly visits at the Landing, and the agent informed us last evening that he had no intimation that those visits would be discontinued. [FROM FRIDAY'S DAILY.] Jotham Bixby, Republican candidate for County Treasurer, was in town yesterday. Board of Surveys M. Board met pursuant to ent—Spargoon, Morton, Minutes of last meeting proved.

In the matter of petition and Gospel Swamp rooftop. R. M. Parcham nominates himself as a candidate for Constable. The fact cannot be disputed that Dick has been a very efficient officer, and in the transaction of civil business he has no superior. The prospect of Charley Miles, for County Recorder, seems to be an unusually good one and we are safe in predicting that he will occupy the office he has so well filled, for two years more at least. The Democratic Central Committee ordered that the county ticket and the advertisement of the meetings to be held should be published in the Gazette simultaneously with the other papers. Through some oversight, the order of the Committee did not reach us, which will explain why the advertisements allowed to fail to appear at the proper time. There was a row in the Chinese quarters last evening: A Celestial hodlam attempted to steal some of the mysterious compounds from Sin Si Wau's store; and the renowned Sin promptly put a head on him—all same Mexican man. Interesting speeches were made, pro and con, upon the subject, in the Chinese language, which our reporter failed to report from lack of time. A Los Angeles paper says that Deputy Marshal J. D. Dunlap has returned from San Francisco, bringing with him some six hundred and seventy-five Channel and Monongahela blue catfish which he distributed in the streams of this section. Gen. Stoneman, Gen. Sanford and a number of other citizens of Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties are seeing to their proper distribution. The fish are from three to four inches long, and about three months old. Justice is sometimes administered without official aid. A young man, yesterday, while showing his expertise in turning curves with a fast team, and his recklessness in defying the ordinances of the steel old town of Anaheim, overturned the buggy and precipitated himself and lady into the ditch, from which he was extricated by friendly butcher who preffered the vage advice, to "drive slow when he was turning corners." C. C. Lamb the Republican nominee for Public Administrator was in town yesterday. At his request we copy the following from the Republican: "We are informed that the impression prevails in various parts of the County that Dr. J. S. Griffin is a candidate for the office of Public Administrator, while the motto that the Doctor has no more thought or intention of such candidacy than he has of succeeding Senator Sargent; Judge J. E. Griffin, the present incumbent, is the Democratic candidate. Yesterday was not an unusually good day for the smashing of earrings, but by some means that class of accidents was somehow frequent. Mrs. Frohling's charger became somewhat excited over some matters connected with the next election, and gave expression to his emotions by knocking the buggy into a cocked hat. The yellow horse belonging to Mrs. Hammons an animal hitherto inclined to be rather sedentary in his habits, This would be very distressing if it were true, but the Republican is evidently mistaken in its statement of facts. The steamer Senator makes weekly visits at the Landing, and the agent informed us last evening that he had no intimation that these visits would be discontinued. [FROM FRIDAY'S DAILY.] Jotham Bixby, Republican candidate for County Treasurer, was in town yesterday. The Los Angeles Star is unusually interesting just now. Its political gossip is well and radily written. Freight shipped this morning: Two barrels, 16 bales wool, 50 skis charcoal, 4 cars sheep, 20 hides, 4dhs pelts: 8 tins tallow, 40 skis meal, 1 box eggs. Mr. J. McFadden was in town yesterday, interviewing our merchants on the subject of shipping their goods via Newport. He offers to deliver freight in Anaheim for $6 per ton. Mr. Robt. N. White has accepted the position of clerk in the Planters' Hotel. He is familiar with the duties of such a position, and cannot fail to add to the popularity of the house. The Santa Ana Times has this mention of an institution of which Anaheim is proud: "The Anaheim Bank is now doing a good business. It is established on a firm basis and merits the confidence of business men." The Anaheim Brass Band has decided to give a concert at no distant day for the benefit of the school fund of Anaheim District. This is a very landable project, and in spite of the hard times the concert will be largely patronized. Express: We are requested by a correspondent of the daily Anaheim Gazette to say that he has committed an error by the mention of Gov. Downey's name in connection with the Colorado Basin land scheme. The Governor is not interested. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: J J Williams, 33 bxs fruit; T J Harlan, bbl sugar; Beebe, 2 pkgs indise; W H & Co., 20 skis flour, 3 pkgs indise; R L Crowder, 1 egg box, 10 cases coal oil; P Williams, 1 egg box; Thos Edwards, 1 egg box; A G S & Co., 4 case coal oil. Messrs. Reiser, Korn, Rimpan and Kreger will to-day inspect the Anaheim Water Company's ditches, and will also endeavor to arrive at some amenable understanding with other irrigating companies, so that the present water famine may be brought to an end. An advertisement of the Firemens picnic is unavoidably crowded out this morning. The committee have secured the Tirroll Gardens in which to conduct the festivities. It will be held on the 26th inst., and the gen- Yesterday was not an unusually good day for the smashing of carriages, but by some means that class of accidents was somewhat frequent. Mrs. Frohling's charger became somewhat excited over some matters connected with the next election, and gave expression to his emotions by knocking the buggy into a cocked hat. The yellow horse belonging to Mrs. Hammes, an animal hitherto inclined to be rather sedentary in his habits, being near the scene, was seized with a desire to enrolate his companion. He broke from his fastening, kicked the new carriage to pieces, and wound up the performance by stabbing himself in the breast with a fragment of a broken whipple-tree, inflicting an injury which may prove fatal. Strange to relate the blacksmith and weapon makers are not in extensive mourning over the dilapidated state of the carriage. [From Thursday's Daily] Messrs Thom and Brunson made speeches at Gospel Swamp yesterday. Several large tires were to be seen in the mountains north of Anaheim last night. The right-of-way has been obtained for the extension of the track of the Santa Monica road to that of the Southern Pacific. The rite of circumcision was performed by Rabbi Edelman yesterday at the residence of L. Gildmacher, at Santa Ana. Mr. Jones, Deputy Sheriff at Azusa, was in town yesterday. He says that section is suffering for want of water, and that many of the trees are commencing to wither. Mr. Herman Blanken announces himself as a candidate for Constable. Mr. Blanken possesses the necessary qualifications for the office and will no doubt hold a very large vote. Mrs. Graham commanded her supervision of the dining department of the Planters Hotel yesterday. Mr. Fischer will spare no pains to render his hotel pleasant and agreeable. Parties knowing themselves delinquent in the matter of dues to the Anaheim Literary Society will please call on the treasurer, Fred Rimpan, without delay. — Messrs. Reiser, Korn, Rimpan and Kroeger will today inspect the Anaheim Water Company's ditches, and will also endeavor to arrive at some amicable understanding with other irrigating companies, so that the present water famine may be brought to an end. An advertisement of the Firemens' picnic is unavoidably crowded out this morning. The committee have secured the Tiroli Gardens in which to conduct the festivities. It will be held on the 26th inst., and the gentlemen who are managing the affair will spare no trouble in making the occasion one long to be remembered. There has been filed in the office of the Secretary of State articles of incorporation of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company — to supply water for irrigating lands lying on the south side of the Santa Ana river, San Joaquin township, Los Angeles county. Capital, $100,000, in shares of $5 each. Directors — Nathan Fletcher, Albert B. Clark, Jansen Huntington, E. F. Greenleaf, and W. C. McClay.

The South Side Santa Ana River Irrigation Company proposes issuing $100,000 stock divided into 20,000 shares of $5 each share to cover one here. The improvements will be made by assessments from time to time as required. It is proposed to close the mortgage as soon as practicable, and liquidate the present incurrence of the old company, and annul, deatroy, burn up or otherwise dispose of the Semi-tropical stock. In this way the assessments can be made to keep everything in order. Heretofore a large portion of the stock had been paid up and it was therefore disposed to levy an assessment. A man can work out his assessment if he wishes, and every day’s work on the ditch, when needed, he gets credit for, and can take it out in water or stock. We believe this to be a just consideration, and trust that everything honorable will be done to make it a success. The lower zanja will be enlarged to three or four times its present capacity, for winter irrigation, and that alone insures as a good crop of grain every year, rain or not. The Celestials herenbouts have been on the way path of late, but then they exercised their ability as grape thieves, and being found out and arrested, they now hang their heads and promise not to do so any more. So mote it be. Mr. E. Hilton, the Republican nominee for the Assembly, in company with Mr. Wilcosa, was in town last week. According to the understanding expressed, we fear no opposition on this side of the river. Politically there is no fight, and the brain-of the Santa Ana valley is in harmony with Hilton, irrespective of party. Does the zipper or Superintendent deliver the water, or does either? We have been asked and would like to know. We see C. E. Parker has announced his intention as a candidate for Constable. Ed. has many friends on this side of the river, and almost every one that knows him will give him their vote. Solider industrious and competent are a few of many virtues that will command him to the people. Letters remaining uncalled for at the post office: Fred W. Cooper, Ida Rain, H. E. Lewis, H. B. Morrow, T. J. Morrow, Mr. Stout. Last week Walter Weaver, C. E. Parker and C. H. Parker were up in Santiago Canyon. They went to its head and to the top of the highest peak due east of here. Being furnished for want of water, and while trying to get through the dense brush, they encountered three bears. Being at close quarters they killed the two and feasted on their flesh, but the country was so rugged that they aban- readers here do not find their local news in your columns. For the sake of keeping our place represented, we again take up the pen privately dropped, hoping some one will be found willing to take it from us. During the past five weeks many items have accumulated, but as much of it is too stale for print, we shall try to give it all. Crops here surpass anything we have seen elsewhere; the corn promising very large yields. Potato planting is new occupying many of our people. Quite an agreement was created by numerous individuals squatting on lands north of here. Private rights were not respected, and people in our own mist squatted on what they knew to be the land of others of our people—bought and paid for. The smallness of the act is made even smaller because there never has been and is no shadow of a claim to satat on these lands. This Mr. Faggan of Downey, Allen’s partner, as counsel for the settlers states in a published card in the Downey Counter. The smalters south and east of here have united their “settlers League,” and “Allen League,” forming a secret organization called the “Union League.” Mr. Allen is daily expected from Washington to explain matters in person. At present considerable uneasiness is manifested as to the issue. Rev. John Mack and wife have returned to this place from Columbia and will reside here. W. M. Bentley from Dublin, Ireland, has bought ten acres from Miller Pawlett; consideration $125. Frank Rogers has bought 20 acres from A. Q. Hawkins. W. H. Harper has bought 40 acres from the Land Company; near Gates consideration $81200. Mr. John Beekett has bought 40 acres near the cemetery—the Bradner lot. J. E. Preston has built a new house, as has also Mr. T. D. Culler, on the town site. Mr. D.W.Lawton has moved his house off of Mr.Strong’s land on to his own. Caldwell & Chase have finished Mr.Harmon’s well, getting an inch flow at 167 feet. They then pulled the pipe from the Bowley well and borged on Mr.Free Bowley’s land getting 1½ inches at 206 feet. McCoy & Taylor finished Mr.Patterson’s well, getting 2¼ inches at 226 feet and are working on the Lockhart well near Orange. J.A.McFadden finished Mr White’s well on the town site, getting one inch at 113 feet,and bored for Mr.Lyotex getting 2½ inches at 172 feet. School commenced here Moorday. Mr.W.S.Moore of Old Los Nietos is Principal,and Miss Jazzie Leidler assistant.Dr.A.J.Howe is teaching the Bolsa Grande school and the boys have to come to time. A few days ago every one entering the Cooperative store was offered a cigar.Such generosity was surprising and inquiry was made by Tom’s wife. With In the matter of petition of Matthew Boul for extension of Eigueron street. Viewers appointed as follows: Ellis, Snyder and Southworth. In the matter of petition for a road from Sanford's bridge to Anaheim road, bond filed and viewers appointed as follows: T. J. Ellis, Win. Harper and W. G. Wiley. John H.

Sober, industrious and competent are a few of many virtues that will command him to the people. Letters remaining uncalled for at the post office: Fred, W. Cooper, Ida Rain, H. E. Lewis, H. B. Morrow, T. J. Morrow, Mr. Stout. Last week Walter Weaver, C. E. Parker and C. H. Parker were up in Santiago Canyon. They went to its head and to the top of the highest peak due east of here. Being finished for want or water, and while trying to get through the dense brush, they encountered three bears. Being at close quarters they killed the trio and feasted on their flesh, but the country was so rugged that they abandoned everything and merely got back with one hole, after sleeping out over night without water, grub, coats, or pleasure. Their mouths were dry and sore for several days afterwards. Mr. Barricklow is again able to be around, although quite weak and emaciated. The campaign begins to warm up and the office of Coastal appears to be more generally sought after than the President's position. If the people of Orange want an officer they must vote solid for their best man and also support the people's choice at the other precinct. Morely throwing away votes for a man that cannot be elected is not doing yourself justice or the people at large, and the consequence will be that all the officers of the township will be elected south of the Santiago Creek. Think of it gentlemen before you cast a vote or else don't growl after it is too late. We learn that individuals above Bullwell's Point (not far) have been using water without leave or license, so far as known by the people. If "shenanigan" by officers is the cause we want to know, and will. If its the individual its the duty of the committee to show things that all. Mr. Covill sprained his foot badly this week, but is getting along finally. J. O. Whoeiler, candidate for CountyClerk, in company with Major H. Blanken, of Anaheim, was in town Monday. The people in this vicinity are modest, but the speech of Thom was so extremely so that his support will be rather modest. J. Anderson is making headway in the same tanning business, and it is only a matter of time. Dr. Head, of Garden Grove was in town Tuesday. The future prospects of the Doctor are bright. We learn that there was a whole carload of candidates in town last week, but being absent we failed to meet the gentlemen. Call again. We too may run for something, some time, if its only the back door. E. Parker, we infer from the talk around us, is the people's candidate for Constable. P. Gallagher, we are informed, is to be pushed to the fullest extent of the law for unlawful handling of water. August 5th, 1877. Garden Grove Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Our election for a school tax came off a few days ago,and we are sorry to be compelled to report that the tax was defeated.Various circumstances combined to produce this result.

REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Our election for a school tax came off a few days ago, and we are sorry to be compelled to report that the tax was defeated. Various circumstances combined to produce this result. There was not so much objection to the tax for building a school house as there was to the locality where it was proposed to build it. The trustees have concluded to rent a building, as more accommodation must be obtained, there being one hundred and six pupils in the district and only room in the present school building for fifty-six. Politicians are quite numerous and there is every reason to anticipate a lively campaign. We predict that very few straight tickets will be polled, and the scratching will be done mostly by the Democracy. The people's eyes are being opened, and the rank and file are not going to vote for all on a ticket because it is called Democratic of Republican. Mr. E. Hilton seems to be a general favorite, and if he does not receive the almost unanimous support of the voters from this portion of the county, we ought never to be represented anywhere on any ticket. No party could have nominated a more honorable or independent gentleman for representation, and we should not allow our party prejudice to overcome our devotion to local prosperity. The crops are looking very well. Some corn fields are spotted, and in some the corn has "fired," but as a general thing there will be medium yield. The assertion which has been published throughout the county that there is one thousand tons of hay for sale in Garden Grove and Westminster, is an exaggeration. There was a large area cut for hay, and the yield was good, but we venture the assertion that there is not for sale to-day in the two places mentioned: 400 tons of hay at $15 per ton. The workmen on Deacon Howe's well are now down 175 feet. This is the deepest well on the boulder belt. Mr. M. A. Ward, the contractor, who is sinking the well, deserves credit for succeeding where so many have failed. Although no large flow of water has been obtained, he has demonstrated that all difficulties can be overcome by energy and perseverance. Mr. J. H. Hannon, contractor and builder, will next week commence the erection of a commodious dwelling for Mr. Jas Howe. Mr. G. H. Little will soon erect a large addition to his dwelling. Westminster Items.

WE ARE INFORMED THAT A CERTAIN WIND Mill, called the "Aldrich Mill," is being offered for sale in this vicinity as an improvement upon the Ellipse. For the protection of those who might ignorantly purchase it, we desire to publicly caution all against buying and paying for any Wind Mill as they will be called on twice to pay for the same thing. The Aldrich Wind Mill infringes directly upon at least three of our Patents which are recognized all over the state, under which a dozen licenses are now granted. The Aldrich mill has no license for the use of our patent, and we shall hold all parties buying or selling it, to the full extent of the law. To parties holding the Aldrich mill or about to purchase it, we would advise their sending 20 cents to Washington and procure a copy of the Aldrich patent. Send for W.H. Aldrich's patent on Wind Mill dated July 6th, 1875 and you will find it calls for the middle slats inside his wheel, that are supposed to act in place of our side vane, and the entire working and regulating device come from other mills and are not patented or claimed by Aldrich, but are infringements upon other patents. A fifth careful investigation will reveal the extent of the Aldrich patent, and may have some honest-earlier half the price of his mill. Mr. C.P. Hoag, o-San Francisco, in our only authorized agent on the Pacific Coast. We make this public statement in order that no one may hereafter plead ignorance as their excuse for using our patent, and so bag off the penalty. ECLIPSE WIND MILL CO.

IMPORTANT TO Farmers Others WHO HAVE ARTESIAN WELLS THAT HAVE ceased to flow, and are in need of water for irrigation, I would say that I am prepared to furnish a pump that will supply. From 250 to 300 Gallons Per Minute. (If your well will afford that supply) with power to run the same, complete, at an expense not to exceed 6500, and give two days trial before paying for it; the machinery to be removed by me without expense to the purchaser. Also can furnish a smaller size of the same pump, 80 to 150 gallons per minute—40’s less price, and a still larger size—600 to 1,000 gallons per minute, at a greater price, on same conditions.
