We were informed yesterday that an unknown man was found dead in Santiago Canyon on Monday. There was a rope around his neck and the body had every indication that the man had been dragged to death. We made the most diligent inquiry, but were unable to ascertain any other facts concerning what seems to have been a foul murder.

Was the next speaker noted as one of the principal and the same him in that movement this—that of being our man.

He said "I have the people have robbed robbed each other unless we have nothing left we should turn over we produce that which might as well live in a fairest and most bound United States. If ever into a store would say geles article, give me Angeles bacon, Los fruit or brooms, or drummers would find and our money would belong. We invite those to our county by derful fertility of our come and the first thing every article we use else, that instead of utilise we say we can raise it import everything we can canned tomatoes from San Francisco.

WEEKLY
ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: SATURDAY, MAY 4, 1878.
The Home Protection League.
Owing to carelessness in the matter of advertising but few of our citizens assembled on Monday evening in front of the Anaheim Hotel to hear the eloquent addresses in favor of supporting Home Industry.
The meeting was called to order at half past seven o'clock and Mr. C. Mossman was chosen President. The first speaker of the evening was
MR. A. M. CAMPBELL
Of Los Angeles. He opened his address by assuring the people that this was not a political movement; that it was inaugurated for the purpose of removing an evil that was the main cause of the hard times of which we all complain, and an evil which would, if not checked, bankrupt our entire country. That here; the most prolific country the sun ever shone on, the people were madly rushing into financial suicide; that instead of utilizing the bountiful supply that nature had given us we were allowing the products of our farms and orchards to go to waste and mortgaging our lands and homes to import the necessaries and luxuries of life, sending our hard coin to purchase the very articles of food which grew luxuriantly around our own door steps. He said that from the county of Los Angeles alone was sent abroad twelve millions of dollars annually, nearly all of which by a proper movement on the part of our people might be kept at home. It was not for the country depends mainly upon the united efforts of the inhabitants thereof in sustaining and patronizing home industries, by which means all their resources are developed, and the wealth which is their true independence is kept at home and distributed among the people;
We therefore appeal to our citizens to awaken to the stern realization of the fact that year after year we are growing poorer and poorer, money is becoming scarcer and scarcer; business is paralyzed; the productive industries of our country are at a standstill and nearly all are distressed financially. Our farmers, merchants, laboring men and mechanics are idle, and in many instances their homes are destitute of the necessaries of life. And why? Because we have been and are still consuming the productions sent to us from abroad, and have turned a cold shoulder and neglected our own home productive interests. The productiveness of our soil is our capital; and let us develop it, and by thus drawing on our own resources, cease to be borrowers. Let us produce what we consume, and claim our right to supply the markets abroad with all the articles of consumption they have hitherto shipped to us, until we have paid our debts in full.
The better to carry out our determination in that regard, we do resolve ourselves into a League to be known as the "Home Protection League of Southern California," and do take upon ourselves the following
PLEDGE.
We, the undersigned agree and pledge ourselves to purchase and consume all articles produced or manufactured at home, in preference to those imported from abroad; to encourage the consumption of home productions; to aid in building up our manufacturing, producing and agricultural interests; to encourage the importation of coin and the ex-
ORANGE CULTURE.
Having learned by accident that a small book on Orange Culture had been published in Florida, we sent to the author and purchased a copy. And we propose, from time to time, to give such extracts from the book as we think will be of interest or benefit to our readers. In this issue we give the chapter on
FERTILIZING.
No crop feeds more ravenously than the orange, and none will convert so large amount of suitable fertilizers into fruit so profitably. Much of our Florida land will produce and sustain fine trees for a few years without the aid of manure; but after some years of fruiting the leaves will begin to turn yellow and the fruit to rust, indicating a deficiency in the soil. Some of our lands considered poorest—black-jack ridges—in the vicinity of dwellings grow fine trees and continue to sustain fine crops of excellent oranges. But these trees so located are almost daily replenished with accidental deposits of nitrogenous manures, (the principal fertilizers needed on black-jack lands), as well as considerable wood ashes and soot from the daily fires of the kitchen, and suds from the wash tub. The flourishing condition of these trees only shows the advantage of manures.
It is not safe to manure trees at the time of planting. In some instances this has succeeded very well, but only when the manure

MR. HENRY HAZARD.
Was next introduced. He said that since the advent of the railroad our county had been literally overrun by drummers from every part of the United States. The cause of this was not that the merchants would not sell home productions; it was because distance lent enchantment to the view, and the people, prejudiced against their own productions, demanded the imported articles and the merchant, who was in reality only their servant, was forced to buy from the drummers the imported wares because the people would have them. Every man who bought the imported articles which were no better than his own manufacture was robbing the people. He said "I have robbed the people and the people have robbed me, and we have all robbed each other until we are so poor that we have nothing left to rob and it is time we should turn over a new leaf." Unless shone on, the people were madly rushing into financial suicide; that instead of utilizing the bonustful supply that nature had given us we were allowing the products of our farms and orchards to go to waste and mortgaging our lands and homes to import the necessaries and luxuries of life, sending our hard coin to purchase the very articles of food which grew luxuriantly around our own door steps. He said that from the county of Los Angeles alone was sent abroad twelve millions of dollars annually, nearly all of which by a proper movement on the part of our people might be kept at home. It was not for the lack of capital that manufactories were not established in this county. It was on account of a foolish prejudice of our people against home productions. It rests with the people to stay this fearful exodus of coin from the country. If every man would pledge himself to purchase and consume all articles produced or manufactured at home, in preference to those imported from abroad, the merchants would soon find imported goods a losing investment, and would oblige to till their shelves with home productions, and instead of shipping the coin to San Francisco and Chicago, it would be circulated among the people, lifting the mortgages from their farms and rendering their home happy and prosperous. The necessity for manufactures would be established by the demand for their products and capital would find a remunerative investment in its own locality. Hard times will exist until the people take the matter in their own minds and determine to eat and drink and wear their own productions. It had been urged that the establishment of large manufactures would encourage the influx of Chinese and that the workingmen would be left as poor as ever. He was in favor of not employing a single Chinaman; if he was in favor of home manufactures he was also in favor of home labor. His object was to keep the money-at home. The gentleman gave a few instances of different articles which could be manufactured here as cheaply and as well as at any place in the world. The gentleman's argument was clear and direct to the point and was received with marked attention and applause by the audience.
CHIEF JOSPH AS AN ARTIST.
[From the Leavenworth Times.]
Chief Joseph was found in his tent enjoying acigar, in company with his wife and child and the warrior "Charley," who was first captured and sent here some months before Joseph's defeat by General Miles, "Charley" having only been recently released from the guard-house and permitted to take up his quarters with his chief who had honored him with a trustworthy position during the campaign. The chief appeared as tranquil as on the day of his arrival, and was dressed about in the same manner. He stated through Charley, who acted as interpreter, that he was not unhappy, and that his people were being treated as well as could be expected. In front of his neatly arranged tent stands a large tree, which he has blazed, and on which he has painted a number of hieroglyphics, which details the cause of his residence on the banks of the Missouri. The base of the "blaze" is filled with a long row of Indian lodges painted in red. Above are horses, birds, wolves, dogs and men, all represented in such a manner as to convey the idea that they are all closely connected. One peculiar feature is that the outline of the birds, if closely observed, very much resemble the birds carved on Cleopatra's needle, which has been recently lauded in London, and the position too, is the same, being at the top of all other characters. Whatever it is, it is of deep significance to the Indians, who all seem to be able to read it and understand its import. The work was executed by Chief Joseph himself, and we must say that his talents as an artist of this kind are not of the worst.
CITY FRONT HOODLUMS.
The orange vessels now in port have been besieged by armies of hoodlums, young and old, who concocted every device by which they could procure succulent oranges for the gratification of their delicate palates. Lines, with pin hooks attached, were cast on board the vessels, and with unerring certainty the hoodlum brought his orange every time. Long, thin poles, with sharp points, were also used successfully. Whenever the backs of the officers were turned for an instant, poles and lines were let fly with the celerity of lightning. At one of the vessels the hoodlums became so bold and threatening that a land considered poorest—other jack rags—and continue to sustain fickle crops and continue to sustain fine oranges. But these trees so located are almost daily replenished with accidental deposits of nitrogenous manures (the principal fertilizers needed on black-jack lands), as well as considerable wood ashes and soot from the daily fires of the kitchen, and suds from the wash tub. The flourishing condition of these trees only shows the advantage of manures.
It is not safe to manure trees at the time of planting. In some instances this has succeeded very well, but only when the manure has been long composted and frequently turned, so that no fermentation will occur around the wounded roots. When manuring will be done thus early it is better to scatter it on the ground and turn it several times in the soil some weeks before the tree is planted.
After the tree has been planted and once started to grow it is then well to manure it heavily till it begins to bear. Begin with a moderate quantity, applying nearer the outer extremity of the lateral roots and increase the quantity every year and enlarge the area to which it is applied. When the garden crops are planted, scatter the manure broadcast. Aim to make the ground rich, rich as a city garden. It will pay for the manure and cultivation if the ground be planted and well cultivated in crops, especially if planted in vegetables where a market can be readily reached. There are several advantages derived from generous manuring when trees are young; not only is the development of the tree hastened, but the tree is less liable to be attacked by some of the insects, and when attacked is better enabled to resist their ravages; and when in vigorous health, but is not making new wood during Winter, it is less liable to bedamaged by the influence of frost. To prevent this last named evil, the树 should never be stimulated in the Fall or latter part of the Summer. It is much better to manure in the Spring. Another advantage to be noted is, when trees are pushed before coming into bearing, the heavy manuring does no damage to the fruit. After trees have begun to bear it is better to manure heavily once in four or five years. Manuring bearing trees,and especially when the manuring is heavily done,has a tendency to make the oranges split and drop off the first year after manuring;and even when they do not split,the fruit for the first year is not so sweet and is more liable to rot soon after picking.To insure a good general yield and saleable fruit each yearthe manuring should be applied alternately to different parts of the grove,Laying offthe grove into four or five equal parts and manuringthe first partthe first year,the second,the secondyear,e.t.

distance lent enchantment to the view, and the people, prejudiced against their own productions, demanded the imported articles and the merchant, who was in reality only their servant, was forced to buy from the drummers the imported wares because the people would have them. Every man who bought the imported articles which were no better than his own manufacture was robbing the people. He said "I have robbed the people and the people have robbed me, and we have all robbed each other until we are so poor that we have nothing left to rob and it is time we should turn over a new leaf." Unless we produce that which we consume we might as well live in a desert instead of in the fairest and most bountiful country in the United States. If every man when he goes into a store would say, give me Los Angeles article, give me Los Angeles flour, Los Angeles bacon, Los Angeles lard or dried fruit or brooms, or matches, or beer, the drummers would find their occupation gone and our money would stay at home where it belongs. We invite the attention of capitalists to our county by advertising the wonderful fertility of our soil; the capitalists come and the first thing they notice is that every article we use comes from somewhere else, that instead of utilizing the products which we say we can raise in such abundance we import everything we wear and eat, even to canned tomatoes from the wholesale dealers in San Francisco. The capitalist thinks, and thinks rightly, that a country that is mortgaged to buy the food for its population is not on a fair road to prosperity, and he won't invest.
MR. PAGE
Was the next speaker. Hesaid that he was noted as one of the principal movers in the Workingmen's movement in this county; that he had been a candidate for office on that ticket; that he went into the movement on principle and the same desire which actuated him in that movement now actuated him in this—that of being of benefit to his fellow man. We are sorry that space does not permit a full synopsis of the gentleman's remarks, which were forcible and logical. At the close Mr. Hazard read the following address to the citizens of Southern California as published by the Home Protection League and urged our citizens to form a branch league in Anaheim to send a delegate to a convention to be held in Los Angeles some time during the present month.

At one of the vessels the hoodlums became so bold and threatening that a messenger was dispatched to the Harbor Police Station to get a policeman to drive them off. In connection with these hoodlum raids along the city front business men there complain of the apparent want of a police force sufficient to give protection to life and property.—S. P. Chronicle,
Yearly Consumption of Tobacco.
From the Tobacco Plant.
The entire mass of tobacco which is annually consumed in smoking, snuffing and chewing on the earth is 4,000,000,000 pounds—manifestly too high an estimate for from 1,200,-000,000 to 1,500,000;000 of inhabitants. Let us take the half as the more probable, and let us suppose the tobacco leaves transformed into roll tobacco, a tobacco serpent is created which, with a diameter of two inches, and following the direction of the equator, would wind itself around the earth thirty times.
Extraordinary Markmanship.
Omaha, April 28.—The shooting match between Carver, of California, and Petty, of Omaha, was concluded yesterday, resulting in favor of Carver, who broke 487 glass balls out of 500, using a rifle, while Petty broke 478 out of 500, using a shotgun. Petty made a consecutive run of 134 balls; Carver made a run of 128 balls. Petty broke 99 out of the fourth hundred and 97 out of the fifth hundred. Carver broke 99 out of the second hundred, 99 out of the fourth hundred and 96 out of the fifth hundred. The match was for a purse of $800. The shooting is considered remarkable.
Mr. Bergh's sympathy for pigs cannot, it is said, be fully appreciated by any one who has seen him in communion with a rasher of bacon.
The kind of fertilizer to be used depends largely upon the character of the soil. If the land planted was originally heavily set in hard wood and the ashes of the wood, cut in clearing, has been scattered on the ground, it is more than likely that the soil for a few years will have a sufficiency of lime, soda and potash. In that case nitrogenous manures will be needed. But if all the wood has been taken off the land and no ashes left, such a soil will likely have become poor in calcareous manures (as the readiness with which the pine springs up in our worn hummock lands shows) and should be treated as the pine lands, and manures applied containing all the elements of vegetable life used by the roots.
Some of the commercial manures are valuable when used in combination with other things, but none of them contain in right proportions all the elements needed for the orange. The writer has used and seen a large variety of these fertilizers, and some benefit has been derived from most of them. From others no advantage has been discoverable. A good article of ground bone, where the oils and phosphoric acid have not been too generally expelled by burning; Peruvian guano, and potash, both the nitrate and sulphate, are very good when combined with muck. These are especially valuable when early vegetables are to be grown among the orange trees, as they highly stimulate the soil and hasten forward both the vegetables and orange trees.
Land plaster should be especially mentioned as beneficial to our sandy soil, as it not only furnishes an important element to the soil, but, in the absence of clay in most of our soil, furnishes a valuable absorber and retainer of the volatile manures so easily expelled by our abundance of sunshine. The writer thinks he has seen another advantage in the use of land plaster in the check which the sulphur, contained in the plaster, has upon some of the insects which damage the trees.
Green crops turned under are highly beneficial to young trees. Eye, cats and barley sown in the Fall and turned under in the Spring and followed by one or two crops of

CULTURE.
The accident that a small tree had been published by the author and purported to extracts from the book of interest or benefit to issue we give the ravenously than the will convert so large fertilizers into fruit so our Florida land will fine trees for a few of manure; but after the leaves will begin the fruit to rust, indicate the soil. Some of ourorest—black-jack ridges wellings grow fine trees in fine crops of excellent trees so located are allied with accidental demanures, (the principal black-jack lands,) as wood ashes and soot of the kitchen, and suds. The flourishing condition shows the advantage sure trees at the time of instances this has success when the manure cow peas during the Summer help forward a grove of trees wonderfully. It is still better if this be accompanied by a liberal dressing of wood-ashes. One ton to the acre is not too much.
Manures from the stable, cow pens, hennery and pig-sty, indeed from every place where wastes is deposited, should be deodorized by the liberal use of land plaster or sulphate of iron—copperas—dissolved in water and composted with muck, and be carefully saved and utilized. As they are highly stimulating they should be composted with three or four times the quantity of muck, and frequently turned before using.
Before trees reach the bearing state they should be fed with nitrogenous manures; but after they have begun to bear potash and the kindred manures should be liberally used. Nitrogenous manures encourage the development of new wood and foliage, while lime and potash are necessary to an abundance of fruit.
The yellow leaves of the tree indicate a deficiency of nitrogenous manures, while the dark green leaves show an abundance. On the other hand rust on fruit shows an excess of nitrogenous manures, and the writer has found a correction of this in using the slacked lime, from burned oyster shell sown broadcast. The lime, in soiling, should be allowed to sift lightly through the branches and leaves of the tree. It should be applied before the trees bloom and when the foliage is dry.
A Remarkable Case.
A very singular termination to a suit was recorded in a dispatch from San Jose yesterday. A young man named Shaw decided some real estate to one Crandall, his stepfather, but having subsequently become insane it was alleged that Crandall had persuaded the young man to make the transfer of the property while he was of unsound mind, and somebody brought an action to set aside the deed. The case was apparently going against the defendant, when to the surprise and dismay of the complainant and his counsel, Shaw himself was introduced as a witness for the defense. Being examined his sanity was completely established, and as he declared that he had made the deed with a full knowledge of his acts, and that he was prepared to do it again if necessary, the counsel for the complainant made a virtue of necessity, and moved to dismiss the suit. It appears that Shaw had escaped from the Stockton Asylum, and had recovered his reason but being afraid that his sanity would still be doubted he hid himself and remained away, hoping in time to be able to re-establish his position. In travelling over the State he approached San Jose and there learned for the first time that his stepfather was being sued on account of the property he had deemed to him. He at once decided to come forward and vindicate the accused, and this dramatic and satisfactory denounce occurred. Mr. Crandall may congratulate himself, however, for it is rarely, save in no instance that the right man turns up at the
Action of the Democratic Committee.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 26.—The Democratic State Committee have adopted a series of resolutions, of which the following are the principal clauses.
Resolved, That, as representatives of the Democratic party, we do hereby declare it to be our desire in the approaching election for members of the State Constitutional Convention that all party issues should be disregarded, and that none should be selected for membership in that body but the fittest for its duties without regard to previous political affiliations.
Therefore we recommend that the people of the several counties and Senatorial districts, irrespective of parties, choose two delegates for each member of the Senate and Assembly to which county and Senatorial district is entitled, to meet in the city of Sacramento on Wednesday the 22d day of May, to nominate delegates from each of the four Congressional districts of the State at large.
We further recommend that the people of the several counties and Senatorial districts, in selecting their local candidates for the 120 delegates to the Constitution Convention apportioned to said counties and Senatorial districts, ignore party politics entirely and select the very best men.
Gold Discoveries in California and Egypt.
SANTA CRUZ, April 26.—Considerable excitement was caused by gold being discovered in paying quantities near Aptos. As high as $3 per day has been panned out. A company have taken out nearly $10,000 in a short time.
ALEXANDRIA, April 24.—Captain Burton, the celebrated African traveler, commanding the Khedive expedition to survey mines in the land of Median, has returned bringing twenty-five tons of specimen ores, comprising gold, silver, copper, tin and lead. Captain Burton found three sulphur centers, three turquoise mines, and extensive deposits of gypsum, saltpeter and rock salt. He goes to England to arrange for the working of the mines for the Khedive.
The outlook for crops in Napa valley is said not to be so encouraging as last year. In the foothills surrounding the valleys and on the most rolling lands the hay crop is very good, often reaching two tons and over to the acre. The same is true to some extent of cereals planted in the same lands. But in the rich alluvial valley lands there has been an excess of wetness, which has given the weeds an undue chance over the pears that Shaw had escaped from the Stockton Aylum, and had recovered his reason but being afraid that his sanity would still be doubted he hid himself and remained away, hoping in time to be able to re-establish his position. In travelling over the State he approached San Jose and there learned for the first time that his stepfather was being sued on account of the property he had deeded to him. He at once decided to come forward and vindicate the accused, and this dramatic and satisfactory denounce occurred. Mr. Crandall may congratulate himself, however, for it is rarely, save in novels, that the right man turns up at the crisis of a situation, in this way, and causes virtue to triumph, and malignity to be rebuked.—Sacramento Record-Union.
One of the Highest Mountains.
According to recent geographical surveys, it seems that the Aconcagua Peak is the lowest of the Andes range, and the highest in America. It is 100 miles east of Valparaiso, and nearly latitude 32°30 south. Its actual height is not accurately known, but the measurements made by M. Pissis and other noted scientists make it reasonably certain that the elevation is between 22,400 and 23,900 feet above the waters of the sea. The French explorer made it 22,422, or four miles and 1,302 feet over, which would be 998 feet higher than the snowy summit of Chimborazo, as Humboldt measured the latter, when in 1802 the great German made his famous ascent of the mountain with Bonpland to a height of 19,286 feet. Aconcagua, seen from the Chilian seaport of Valparaiso, is shown only as a peak, towering above the other heights of the Andes at a distance of 100 miles or more inland, toward the sunrise. Aconcagua has been called an extinct volcano, but the best examinations yet made of its summit do not appear to bear out that idea. The recent observations make the height of the Chilian mountain 23,000 feet, and "probably" over that figure. The elevation of Mexico's highest mountain—Popocatepetl, or "Smoking Mountain"—is nearly 5,000 feet less than that of the Chilian peak, and Mount Shannon and Mount Hood fall short to about the same figure. Pike's Peak is about 9,000 feet lower than Aconcagua.
There is one rather absurd thing about postal cards that seems not to be generally known. A good writer, who gets things down fine, can put several thousand words on a card, and the cost is a cent, but if he pastes a printed slip containing asingle word on the card the expense is six cents; One paid for the card, and the other five collected from the card receiver, yet if words are printed on the card itself it is all right. If a person pastes a printed slip on a card, the size of a postal card, and puts the card and slip into an open envelope, the government will carry card, slip and envelope for a cent, yet it charges six cents for carrying a postcard and slip without the envelope! Therefore, if you have occasion to paste a printed paragraph on a post card, put it in an envelope and the additional weight will
The outlook for crops in Napa valley is said not to be so encouraging as last year. In the foothills surrounding the valleys and on the most rolling lands the hay crop is very good, often reaching two tons and over to the acre. The same is true to some extent of cereals planted in the same lands. But in the rich alluvial valley lands there has been an excess of wetness, which has given the weeds an undue chance over the grain, and in some cases has entirely drowned out the grain. Clover and cheat is springing up thick among the growing barley, wheat and oats, and, in many cases, that which was sown to be reaped for grain will be mown for hay, making the hay oroplarger than usual. The acreage sown is about the same as last year, throughout the county. From present indications it is thought that the growing grain will run more to stock than ripened grain. Competent farmers express the opinion that the aggregate yield of the valley will be one-fourth and perhaps one-third less than last year.—Napa Register.
The Petersburg Index Appeal reminds General Benjamin F. Butler that he is "an outlaw by solemn act of the Confederate authorities never repealed, and if he is still in favor of hanging people, there may still be people in favor of hanging him."
Thereupon a New York paper remarks: "We are under the impression that this and other solemn acts of the Confederate authorities were very effectually repealed about thirteen years ago this spring."
Madison, Wis., April 27.—Information is requested by Mrs. Samuel Greene, of Los Angeles, California, of her husband, Samuel Greene, who was in Madison on September 2, 1877, selling a patent gas, and who left here for Milwaukee, since which time nothing has been heard of him. It is feared that he has been foully dealt with.
New York, April 26.—Lewis Bierl, who was with Col. Baker at the time of his death at Ball's Bluffs and shot the man who killed Baker, was suspended from the Custom House to-day on a charge of receiving money from an importer.
Cincinnati Commercial; Edison is a tremendous worker. Work is a dissipation with him—his only bad habit. For the last ten years he has averaged eighteen hours a day at his desk. His house is within fifty rods, but when he is in the crisis of an invention he does not go home for days, either to cat or sleep. He never went to school but a month in his life, but has taken out one hundred and fifty-seven inventions and filed seventy-seven caveats, and is now only thirty-one. Twenty-five men are employed in his laboratory, merely to materialize his ideas. He is worth $150,000 and now has an income of nearly that every year. He dresses plainly, hates sham, doesn't like to have a fuss made over him, is afloat in politics, an atheist in religion, and does not believe in guess work about anything.
The artistic sensation of Paris is an artist named Andre Gauthier, who draws nightly large audiences to see him paint a landscape in five minutes, a portrait in six, and two different pictures simultaneously, one with each hand, for he is ambidexter after a manner to delight Charles Reads's heart.
