WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...AUGUST 2, 1879 AGENTS OF THE GAZETTE. The following gentlemen are appointed agents of the Gazette at the place designated. They are authorized to receive money in payment for subscriptions or advertisements: WESTMINSTER.....BOBERT STRONG GARDEN GROVE.....CON HOWE ORANGE.....N. D. HARWOOD TUSTIN.....C. TUSTIN SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO.....R. EGAN NORWALK.....J. E. CALDWELL SILVERADO.....J. C. HILL TRAVELING AGENT.....A. T. PERDON AN IMPORTANT MEETING. A meeting of prominent business men was held in Los Angeles on Tuesday, to take into consideration some plan to induce immigration to this county. From a report of the meeting, those present appear to have been thoroughly imbued with the necessity of immediate and effective action, but some of the views advanced as to the cause of the hard times here were little less than ridiculous. For instance, Gen. Banning and Mr. Slauson were of the opinion that the hard times were attributable in a great measure to the local press, which had published altogether too gloomy a picture of the situation. We think that the gentlemen are wide of the mark. If the press is to be blamed at all for the present depression, it is not because they have scattered broadcast gloomy accounts of the situation here, but rather because they have looked upon the bright side of things and by so doing awakened expectations which were not realized by new comers, with the inevitable consequences. Mr. L. M. Holt addressed the meeting, and gave the details of a plan which he and others had drawn up. He said: It is proposed that N. C. Carter, A. N. Hamilton, Col. W. E. Morford, L. M. Holt, and F. B. Fanning form a partnership under the firm name of Land and Immigration Bureau of Southern California. The management of this Bureau shall be under the control of an Advisory Board to be elected by the land owners and business men of Southern California. The Bureau shall issue a monthly publication in pamphlet form of forty or more pages, with a monthly circulation. The Case of D. M. Bennett. ANAHEIM, July 28, 1879. Editor Gazette:—Believing you to be a lover of justice, we respectfully ask the privilege of making our statement concerning D. M. Bennett. If any citizen of Anaheim who signed the petition for his pardon, not understanding the case, wish to sign a counter-petition stating their mistake, they are at liberty to do so. We will forward the name of any such, if so desired. We are not aware that any misrepresentation has been made in securing signatures. We consider D. M. Bennett guilty of no crime. He is not a dealer in obscene literature. His trial was a perfect farce. His offense consisted in mailing a copy of "Cupid's Yokes," a pamphlet written by E. H. Heywood, with the best of motives. It is sold openly by hundreds of booksellers, and is pronounced not obscene by U. S. Attorney-General Charles Devens. Obscenity is only a pretext; the real cause is that Mr. Bennett publishes the Truth Seeker, a paper devoted to free thought. Anthony Comstock, the prosecutor, has declared his intention to stamp out free-thought publications. We do not uphold obscenity in any shape. We have a copy of "Cupid's Yokes" which we would be pleased to have anyone examine for themselves and decide as to what it contains. Yours, for justice, MRS. L. PARKER, W. B. KELSEY. Bennett was arrested, tried and convicted for circulating obscene literature. It is misrepresentation to say that the object was to prohibit the publication of an infidel paper; and it is reasonable to suppose that many signed the petition because of such misrepresentation. There are swarms of infidels who would not sanction the circulation of obscene matter. The San Francisco Chronicle of July 23d made the following comments, and the other city papers bore testimony to the same effect: "A dispatch was received in the city yesterday to the effect that a petition was recently forwarded to President Hayes asking for the pardon of a man named Deborgne M. Bennett, lately convicted of transmitting obscene literature through the mails. The petition bore the signatures of 130,000 persons, most of whom are citizens of San Francisco. The United States authorities and police have had no knowledge of the circulation of such a petition, and no one seems to have ever heard of it before. A city directory in all probability supplied the Democratic County Court. At 11 A.M. on Thursday, Unwell filled with delegates and tendant upon the Democratic Convention. Mr. Meyer J. Newmark, Chatham County Central Committee, called convention to order and stated their Convention. On the nomination of R. A. Duffatt, of San Fernando, was rary chairman, and Mr. L.C Santa Monica, was chosen temporary. On motion of Judge Gibba of seven en credentials and organization was appointed by the laws: Judge Gibba of San Fryer of Spadra; R.Egan of Woodworth of Los Angeles; M.Anaheim; J.C.Morgan of San R.A.Lang of Los Angeles. On motion of Barclay, Platform and Resolutions was the Chair as follows: Mr.Barclay W.H.Workman of Los Angelesler of Cahuenga; S.McLeanLacey and Dr.Kurtz of Los The Convention then adjourned. Los Angeles, Aug. 1.-Convention has nominated Los Nietos for Senator, and Judge Stephens for Superintendent. -A meeting of the Dr.Workingmen) was held at Friday evening and an addressed, signed by J.F.Godfrey G.A.Bunch.A.J.Hamilton and P.de Celis.The address the principles of the W.P.the State ticket of the party that the party in this control of corrupt men brought it into disfavor. We are bound to acknowledge that many of those who hastest and longest about the event are, in our opinion, not abode those who most loudly office-seeking and office-selves the most self-seeking been, in our opinion, influagues of other parties to Mr. L. M. Holt addressed the meeting, and gave the details of a plan which he and others had drawn up. He said: It is proposed that N. C. Carter, A. N. Hamilton, Col. W. E. Morford, L. M. Holt, and F. B. Fanning form a partnership under the firm name of Land and Immigration Bureau of Southern California. The management of this Bureau shall be under the control of an Advisory Board to be elected by the land owners and business men of Southern California. The Bureau shall issue a monthly publication in pamphlet form of forty or more pages, with a monthly circulation of not less than five thousand copies. It shall establish an office in Los Angeles in charge of Col. W. E. Morford, where people desiring to locate in this section of the State can find reliable information relative to soil, climate, productions, etc., and land for sale. It shall establish a branch office in San Francisco, under the control of N. C. Carter. It shall establish another branch office at Omaha in charge of A. N. Hamilton, who will board all western bound passenger trains, circulate on those trains the publications of the Bureau, and do all in his power to direct travel to Southern California. To do this will require at least $500 per month, which is to be raised by means of advertisements in the Bureau's publications, contributions, etc. It is proposed to get the businessmen to take twenty columns of advertisements at $25 per column. All commissions received by the Bureau for the sale of lands are to be used under the direction of the Advisory Board in furthering the objects of this Bureau. The meeting was asked to consider the proposition, modify or change it as it thought best, or if anything better presented itself to endorse it. After considerable discussion, in which the opinion was freely expressed that unless the price of land was lowered it was needless to expect immigration, a committee was appointed to consider the details of the matter under consideration and to report at another meeting to be held at the County Court room on Tuesday, August 5th. The following is the Committee: J. DeBarth Shorb, S. E. McComas, Gen. Banning, G. D. Compton, L. M. Holt, H. M. Johnson, Gen. Shields, Gov. Downey, D. M. Berry, N. C. Carter, J. S. Slanson, J. E. Hollenbeck, I. W. Hellman, S. M. Berry, H. K. W. Bent and R. M. Widney. By yesterday's mail we received the prospectus of the "Bureau of Information and Colonization," which was recently organized in San Francisco, and the object of which is expressed in the title. Edward Martin, of the Hibernia Bank, is President, and W. H. Martin is the general agent, with rooms at 635 Market St., San Francisco. It is to be hoped that these Bureaus will assist in pluing our country with the right kind of immigrants, and thus lift us out of the Slough of Despond into which we have drifted. HORTICULTURAL MEETING IN ANAHEIM. At the last meeting of the Southern California Horticultural Society the by-laws were amended in many important particulars. One of the amendments allows the regular or special meetings of the Society to be held at any place in the District, and it seems to us that it would be fitting and proper for the other city papers bore testimony to the same effect: "A dispatch was received in the city yesterday to the effect that a petition was recently forwarded to President Hayes asking for the parlon of a man named Deborgne M. Bennett, lately convicted of transmitting obscene literature through the mails. The petition bore the signatures of 130,000 persons, most of whom are citizens of San Francisco. The United States authorities and police had no knowledge of the circulation of such a petition, and no one seems to have ever heard of it before. A city directory in all probability supplied the names, and an outrageous attempt is being made to deceive the President." New York, July 30th.-A Herald Washington special says: The Attorney-General to-day received information that D. M. Bennett, convicted of the charge of sending obscene matter through the mail, has been sent to the Albany Penitentiary. Since the day of his conviction he has been confined in the Ludlow-street Jail, pending application for pardon. After six weeks' careful consideration of the subject, the President decided that he would not interfere with the case, and Bennett goes for thirteen months. The effort made by the friends of Bennett was one of the most extraordinary in the annals of petitions for pardons. The Attorney-General received petitions from all parts of the country signed by nearly one hundred and fifty thousand people. The reason given by the President for not granting the pardon was that he did not like to interfere with the action of the United States Court; and that to pardon Bennett before he had served any part of his sentence would appear like a reflection upon the Court in which the trial took place. The Attack on Bouton. A letter was received on Tuesday from Gen. Bouton, giving the following details of the attack on him which resulted in the killing of Wakefield and the wounding of two other men. The letter says: I will be in Wednesday or Thursday. I had an exciting event happen me last night in going from here to the ranch. Three masked highwaymen waylaid Mr. Collins and myself, and got our hands chained together behind us and chained our necks, and Mr. Collins chained to the buggy wheel. Two of them were leading me off into the brush to kill me, as we both think, when I slipped a link in the chain and got one hand free. I drew my revolver, which I still had in my hip pocket, and shot the one who was holding a shot-gun almost against me and then one leading me. The third came running towards me and I gave him a shot that sent him on the ground into the brush. I then ran and released Collins and we got away with the team. We came back this morning and found the body of the leader in the road about half a mile from the place where the shooting occurred. Men are looking for the other bodies. Yours in haste, E. BOUTON. Colton, Cal., July 29.-By the Justice of the Peace of San Jacinto who has just arrived, I get full particulars of the fatal shooting which occurred near San Gorgonio Monday. Gen.Bouton arrived at San Gorginio HORTICULTURAL MEETING IN ANAHEIM. At the last meeting of the Southern California Horticultural Society the by-laws were amended in many important particulars. One of the amendments allows the regular or special meetings of the Society to be held at any place in the District, and it seems to us that it would be fitting and proper for the first meeting under the new rule to be held in Anaheim—the pioneer fruit-growing region of Los Angeles county. We know that the officers and members of the Society would gladly respond to an invitation from our citizens to hold a meeting here about the middle of September, and we suggest that the fruit growers of this section counsel together and send a formal invitation to the Society to visit us. The probabilities are that with tire display of a moderate amount of energy enough visitors would come from Los Angeles, San Gabriel and other points to warrant an excursion train; at any rate, enough would come to make a stir in the community and insure a sociable gathering, all the more welcome after the political strife of the previous month. We commend this matter to the attention of our horticulturists, and hope they will take steps to carry out the suggestions here given. A Suggestion. Editor Gaettré—The people of Anaheim are justly proud of their school system, their teachers and their fine building. They feel that the present state of prosperity in educational matters is due to the exertions and seal of the Principal. The whole community will rejoice that his health is so far restored that he will be able to resume the duties of his position. Believing that he and all true lovers of education would be glad to hear few suggestions for improvement in the standard of scholarship in the different rooms, we would say that many would be glad if a fair and strict system of marks and grades would be adopted, and weekly compositions from the older scholars insisted upon. The marks should apply to department, punctuality and neatness as well as to scholarship. We believe that this system would encourage the well-disposed to greater effort, and shame the indolent into exertion. With the best of wishes for the schools of Anaheim, I am, youre, A. B. C. Democratic County Convention. At 11 A.M. on Thursday, Union Hall was well filled with delegates and spectators attendant upon the Democratic County Convention. Mr. Meyer J. Newmark, Chairman of the County Central Committee, called the Convention to order and stated the object of the Convention. On the nomination of R. A. Ling, Mr. A. B. Moffatt, of San Fernando, was chosen temporary chairman, and Mr. L. G. Geroux of Santa Monica, was chosen temporary Secretary. On motion of Judge Gibba a committee of seven en credentials and permanent organization was appointed by the Chair as follows: Judge Gibba of San Gabriel; Jero Fryer of Spadra; R. Egan of San Juan; W. Woodworth of Los Angeles; R. W. Scott of Anaheim; J. C. Morgan of Santa Monica; and R. A. Ling of Los Angeles. On motion of Mr. Barclay, a committee on Platform and Resolutions was appointed by the Chair as follows: Mr. Barclay of Cienega; W. H. Workman of Los Angeles; Mr. Chandler of Cahuenga; S. McLean of El Monte; S. Lacey and Dr. Kurtz of Los Angeles. The Convention then adjourned till 1 P.M. Los Angeles, Aug. 1.—The Democratic Convention has nominated Gen. Sanford of Los Nietos for Senator, and Judge Sepulveda and Judge Stephens for Superior Judges. —A meeting of the D. W. (Disgusted Workingmen) was held at Los Angeles on Friday evening and an address was submitted, signed by J. F. Godfrey, W. B. Lawlor, G. A. Bunch, A. J. Hamilton, S. M. Perry and P. de Celis. The address, after reciting the principles of the W. P. C., and endorsing the State ticket of the party, says in substance that the party in this county is under the control of corrupt men, who have already brought it into disfavor. The address continues: We are bound to acknowledge the fact that many of those who have preached loudest and longest about the corruption of others are, in our opinion, not above suspicion; that those who most loudly declaimed against office-seeking and office-seekers, are themselves the most self-seeking; that they have been, in our opinion, influenced by the demagogues of other parties to prevent a union among them in the country and in their local communities. Successful Farmers. Gen. John H. Shields of Florence has a letter in the Los Angeles Herald, defending Los Angeles county as an agricultural and fruit growing region, and enforces his views by citing several instances of prosperity. We quote: First, then, is the case of Judge Venable of Los Nietos. This gentleman is widely known as a farmer and still more widely known as at one time a member of the Legislature. Judge Venable and his partner, Mr. Cheney, have a dairy. Among the facts established in their experience are the following: Forty acres of alfalfa will maintain eighty cows in high milk yielding state. At eight cents a pound, the extremely low price of cheese, the gross income is thirty-two cents per cow per day, sixty-four cents per acre per day, one hundred and ninety-two dollars per acre for three hundred days out of the year. The offal of the dairy and the increase of the cattle will pay the expense of milking and making up the cheese. But these results require good stock and wise management. It is easy to figure up the income from forty acres. Judge Venable's opinion is that dairying is the most profitable use to which alfalfa can be devoted. He thinks the alfalfa land will gradually drift into use for dairying. Consideres that the profits of dairying are liable to diminish as the herd is increased beyond say from fifty to one hundred cows. Advises the cutting of alfalfa as soon as a few scattering blooms appear. Is convinced that soiling rather than grazing alfalfa is to be preferred. Would ratner feed properly-cured dry alfalfa hay all year, even at the additional expense, than to graze it. Indeed, all things considered, thinks it economy to feed alfalfa in the form of dry hay. Thinks that at present prices alfalfa pays, while corn, barley and some other products result in loss to the producer. Compares alfalfa with U.S.bonds for safety as an investment. Considers alfalfa preferable as much on account of certainty as on account of greater volume of income when compared with other modes of using land. Believes that gypsum lime, strawing land or plowing in the alfalfa say the third year, to come again, tends to a better original stand in alkaline soil and to preserve it thereafter. When the alfalfa gets Ho! For the Ocean! DAILY STAGE TO ANAHEIM LANDING. Leave Anaheim every morning at 7 o'clock. Orders should be left at the store of A.Langenberger. Special Notice.

Therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the Workingmen and Farmers of Los Angeles county, deeply feeling the immediate necessity of maintaining our party in all its purity, and feeling called upon as good and law-abiding citizens in the present chaotic state of county politics, meet together in the interest of good government and for that object to procure the election of good men to office, agree to meet in convention after the nominations for the county officers by the different political parties have been made, and select from among the candidates of these parties men for the different offices who will properly represent the intelligence, honesty and ability of the people of the county. A correspondent of the Colton Semi-Tropic, who has had a vast amount of animal spirits injected into him by a pasea to the sea-side, writes to that paper concerning some "Soches in the Comedy—Trips to Anaheim Landing via Westminster." He says: Now can you see how this latter town (Westminster) was christened by such a name? To be sure, no town could get any further west, just here, without dipping into the peaceful waves of the broad and motherly Pacific. Then there were thirty-six ministers at one little church house in Gospel Swamp the other day. Now this may account for part of the town's name. And oh! what lots of steeples there are. And there are the funniest, clown-looking things in Mr. Somebody's yard! cypress trees trimmed up like turned posts with round heads as big as somebody's you and I know. Westminster is a nice little town with streets half as dirty as Santa Ana or Colton, and lots of those fatal eucalyptus trees, but I didn't see any "couple of young ladies" exploring "any grove" nor "the strong odor that affected them in a peculiar way," as the Anaheim Gazette said. But that "Number One Brewery" in Anaheim did have a very peculiar odor, and Oh! Oh! but the strength of the hop juice did cause the head to whiz and swim like a giddy girl in the surf with a stingaree in sight, and "for a time we had no control over our tongue." Now don't that seem peculiar? But when the good looking beer maker said that he made better beer than our Anderson, we were very brave and dared to doubt it just a little. And then the fish with teeth like hogs, and taste as strong as blue gum leaves. We ain't fish hungry now, not a bit. But oh, this delicious climate! It does brace one up and give new strength to the body and it we had about three creeds. San Francisco Market. SAN FRANCISCO, July 31. Corrected weekly by Spear, Meade & Co., No. 316 and 318 Washington St. S.F. There is little change to note in the general state of trade here. In the produce market, Barley is firmer, thinks it economy to feed alfalfa in the form of dry hay. Thinks that at present prices alfalfa pays, while corn, barley and some other products result in loss to the producer. Compares alfalfa with U. S. bonds for safety as an investment. Considers alfalfa preferable as much on account of certainty as on account of greater volume of income when compared with other modes of using land. Believes that gypseum lime, strawing land or plowing in the alfalfa say the third year, to come again, tends to a better original stand in alkaline soil and to preserve it thereafter. When the alfalfa gets ahead of the cattle, which it is apt to do, Mr. Cheney buys up calves from six ten months old at from five to ten dollars each, which come in as milk cows at about two years old and then sell readily at from thirty to fifty dollars each. The next last case, for I find my letter is lengthening out beyond my expectations, is that of Mr. W. W. Orr, of Norwalk, Seven years ago Mr. Orr bought forty acres of land on a credit at twenty dollars per acre, or eight hundred dollars for the tract. One-half the land is good; the other half is so strongly alkaline that salt grass is about all that it does or will produce. The good one-half of the forty acres is devoted to alfalfa, vegetables and a few other products. Mr. Orr started seven years ago with this land, two cows, a debt of eight hundred dollars, a fair capital of will to work, but no cash capital. To-day Mr. Orr holds his land clear of debt, owes no man, has fenced one-half of his farm, has a fine Jersey bull, thirty cows worth fifty dollars each, twenty head of catle worth thirty dollars each, hogs worth say two hundred dollars, horses four hundred dollars, wagon implements, etc., say four hundred dollars, and some money besides. Moreover, has supported his family in the meantime. Some of Mr. Orr's neighbors, with an equal or even a better start, are either no better off than they were seven years ago, or are worse off in some cases by the amount of a mortgage debt. One of his neighbors, said to be a worthy gentleman, was in the dairy business, and always had ready money more or less,and owed no debts. He quit the dairy for corn,fruit,eTC; also quit having surplus funds,and is now seriously in the mood to resume alfalfa and the dairy. There are thousands of forty-acre alfalfa tracts open to the immigrant at reasonable prices, all things considered,and similar or even superior to the Venable & Cheney dairy farms. And other forty-acre tracts adapted to fruit,equal to,but not superior to,the Riverside fruit farms,a obtainable at reasonable prices. W.

The average sale in London of American beef is now computed at about five thousand quarters per week, and there are not half a dozen butchers in London who do not sell it. Of this, only about three hundred quarters are retailed as American beef, being sold at extortionate prices as English beef. It is stated that but for the greed and unfairness of English butchers, people could purchase meat at greatly reduced prices. W. FESENFELD, TINSMITH, PLUMBER, Sheet-iron Worker.
