Theodore Glancey, editor of the Santa Barbara Press, was shot last week by Clarence Gray, the Republican candidate for District Attorney in Santa Barbara county. The provocation was strictures in the Press (a Republican paper) on Gray. A newspaper is to this fellow, Gray, what a red flag is to a bull. He has had a row with every one of the half hundred editors who have been connected with the Santa Barbara papers during the past five years, his weapons heretofore having been those which Nature endowed him with—a foul tongue and ready fist. He also had a rencontre with a catholic priest a couple of years ago, at a time when a lady was editing the Press, thus depriving the high-tempered Clarence of his regular game. In the scuffle with the priest someone's leg was broke, but whether it belonged to Gray or the priest we can't remember. The fact that the various editors have generally been small men in the last stages of consumption, may account for the uniform victories achieved by the gallant Gray. Mr. Glancey died from the effects of Gray's murderous shot, and if upon trial the facts of the affray as telegraphed are substantiated, there is a reasonable hope that Gray will be nanged, and the profession of journalism in Santa Barbara made comparatively safe. It appears that Gray met Glancey on the street and asked him if he was responsible for a certain article which had appeared in the Press. Upon Glancey's giving an affirmative answer Gray attempted to draw a pistol, but the editor grasped his hand and prevented him. Bystanders then interfered and separated the men, and Glancey turned away and was in the act of passing into the hotel SORGHUM SUGAR. Successful Experiments with Amber Cane—Great Yield of Syrup—Hopeful Farmers. About two years ago, the Agricultural Department at Washington published a number of reports giving the result of experiments with the Minnesota Early Amber cane, and the reports were of such an encouraging nature that many farmers in this vicinity decided to give it a trial. Seed was procured from the Agricultural Department and planted, the result being uniformly good crops. With such rude appliances as the farmers themselves could make, the cane was crushed and the juice boiled. The resultant syrup found a ready market at a good price. This year, small patches of cane were planted on a great many farms in Garden Grove and Artesia. In the first-named place there were sixty acres and in Artesia forty acres. We have reports from both places and they are of the most inspiring character. We have never seen people so hopeful in regard to the future prospects of any crop, as any farmers who have raised sorghum this year. And there seems to be solid ground for their expectations. The cane grows luxuriantly—much more so than corn. At Garden Grove, a strip of corn and a strip of cane were growing side by side. The corn failed to mature, but the cane ripened and is to day fourteen feet in height. It grows remarkably tall. Mr. W. G. Potter of Centralia tells us that some of it is sixteen feet in height. The fact of its being so tall and slender would probably make it liable Notice to Renters ON THE— "Stearns Ranchos" UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, WM. R. OLDEN will have charge of the Pasturage Agency and will attend to the business. All rents must be paid to him. By Order of A. ROBINSON, Trustee. Anaheim, May 29th, 1880. ANAHEIM Lighter Company!

HEAD, J.D.CHAFFER, Trustees Mr. Glancey died from the effects of Gray's murderous shot, and if upon trial the facts of the affray as telegraphed are substantiated, there is a reasonable hope that Gray will be naged, and the profession of journalism in Santa Barbara made comparatively safe. It appears that Gray met Glancey on the street and asked him it he was responsible for a certain article which had appeared in the Press. Upon Glancey's giving an affirmative answer Gray attempted to draw a pistol, but the editor grasped his hand and prevented him. Bystanders then interfered and separated the men, and Glancey turned away and was in the act of passing into the hotel opposite which the altercation took place, when Gray broke away from the men who were holding him and fired, the ball passing through Glancey's wrist and entering the abdomen. The shooting took place on Saturday afternoon and the victim died on Sunday. We knew Glancey slightly. He was at one time editor of the Los Angeles Herald and subsequently published an agricultural paper in the same city for a short time. He was a sober, energetic and industrious man, and deserved a better fate. The number of men who make a boast of their extreme partisanship and take pride in declaring that they always vote a straight party ticket, "from constable up," are becoming less every year. It is no longer popular to be known as the slave of party, ready to vote without protest for whatever scalawag a convention thrusts upon the rank and file of the voters. Whenever a voter supports such of the nominees of his party as are candidates for offices political in their nature, he vindicates his party fealty and his devotion to his party's principles, and has a perfect right to scratch every other name on the ticket and substitute those of men of adverse political opinions, if for any reason he considers them better than the nominees of his own party. The Republican who votes for the Garfield and Arthur electors, for Pacheco and for the Legislative nominees, proclaims beyond question his belief in the principles of the Republican party, and he can, without forfitting a single claim upon the party, scratch the balance of the ticket and fill it out with Democrats or Greenbackers. Politics should cut no figure in choosing county or township officers, and the voter should vote for men to fill these offices for other than political reasons. A Republican is none the less a Republican if he votes for Dick Barham for Sheriff, Moffitt for Treasurer, Johnston for Recorder, Potts for Clerk, Knox for Surveyor, Sepulveda for Auditor, and so on, and the Democrat who votes for the Republican opponents of these gentlemen, believing them to be better qualified, or having a personal friendship for them, is none the less a Democrat because of that action. All that any party can expect of its followers nowadays is that they will look behind the men who secure the nominations for strictly political offices and vote for them on account of the principles they represent. That done, the voter should fill up his ticket with what he considers the best men—and it is a hopeful sign that the advocates of such freedom of action are becoming more and more pleniful. In our colony article last week, the dropping of a cipher in several places made our calculations very absurd. Below we reprint that part of the article correctly: We will suppose that there are twenty victories achieved by the gallant Gray.

CHAFFER, CONVERS HOWE, Garden Grove, September 5th, 1889. THE FAIR! THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HORTICULTURAL Society will make the finest and largest display of Horticultural and Agricultural products this Fall ever made by them. In addition to the premium offered by the Society, the Sixth District Agricultural Association also offer a liberal premium list for agricultural products, the exhibit of which is to be made together with that of the Horticultural Society, in the Horticultural Pavilion. OCTOBER 18th to 23d, inclusive The Joint Exhibition in one Pavilion will assure the largest and best exposition of Horticultural and Agricultural products ever made on the Pacific Coast. The Premiums offered for Horticultural and Agricultural products to be exhibited at the Horticultural Pavilion this Fall exceed in number and value those offered by any other Society or Fair on this Coast. The Southern California Horticultural Society is the only association on the Pacific Coast which makes Horticultural and Agricultural Products the basis for an expedition. The people of Southern California are more especially interested in, and more nearly identified with the important work of advancing and improving the Horizontal and Agricultural industries of our country than in any other enterprise. Nothing will or can do more to advance these interests than a general and friendly competition, and every citizen of Southern California should make the very best exhibit of their products, as well as attend the Expedition for the general knowledge to be obtained, and a friendly meeting of citizens from all sections of the country. A number of distinguished citizens from abroad have signified their intention of being present at our Fair. We begask a full exhibition and a large attendance worthy of Southern California.

All that any party can expect of its followers nowadays is that they will look behind the men who secure the nominations for strictly political offices and vote for them on account of the principles they represent. That done, the voter should fill up his ticket with what he considers the best men—and it is a hopeful sign that the advocates of such freedom of action are becoming more and more plentiful. In our colony article last week, the dropping of a cipher in several places made our calculations very aburd. Below we reprint that part of the article correctly: We will suppose that there are twenty families, neighbors, in some of the old States or in Canada who desire to come West and make a home in this young and growing State. We will suppose, further, that they cannot dispose of their property at the present time, but that with returning prosperity there is a reasonable chance of being able to sell it in a year or two. Let them form an organization, each paying into the general fund an equal sum— say $1000 each. That would make a fund of $20,000. Let their agent or superintendent in California buy a tract of six hundred acres, which would give each stockholder thirty acres—fully enough land, in our opinion. Now, we believe that land for which the individual purchaser would have to pay $30 or $40 an acre could be bought for at least $20 an acre for colony purposes. Wherever there is a successful colony, the contiguous land is greatly increased in value, and the owners of large tracts are ever willing to make coucous to such enterprises. Six hundred acres of land at $20 per acre would take $12,000 out of the general fund, and the remaining $9000 would go a long way towards preparing the land to receive the trees and vines, surveying the lots, etc. It has been suggested to us that the land can be purchased by paying one-fourth cash and the balance in yearly instalments. This would of course make it only necessary to raise about $10,000 to start with, instead of $20,000—$3,000 for the land and $7,000 for the first year's expenses.

Correspondence A FEW WORDS OF WARNING To the Owners of Land on the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana. Many years ago, the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana was surveyed by a United States Deputy Surveyor, and the exterior lines of said rancho were located in accordance with the decree of the supreme Government of Mexico, which confirmed the grant defined and its boundaries in the years 1833 and '34. This survey was approved by the then U.S. Surveyor-General, and was satisfactory both to the owners of the rancho and to the owners of adjoining lands. Thereupon, there was instituted a suit in the District Court of Los Angeles county, and a decree of partition issued to subdivide the rancho so surveyed. The rancho was subdivided in accordance with said decree, and all title to property within said rancho is now entirely dependent upon the maintenance, unchanged, of the exterior and subdivision lines of said surveys. As matters stand, your titles are perfect, your lines and corners established; you know where your land is, and if you want to sell, you can define and describe your property and give a good title to it; you now own your particular tract and the improvements thereon, and so long as the exterior boundaries of the rancho are unchanged this very desirable state of things will continue. But it must be remembered that the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana has its full complement of land, and should the boundaries be changed in any way, either by Centralia Home. Ed. Gazette.—We have just returned from a very pleasant little gathering at Mr. C. M. Crane's, where we witnessed the marriage ceremony by which Mr. McPherson and Miss Lydia Crane were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. The ceremony was very pleasantly performed by Rev. Mr. Field of Westminster. You, Mr. Editor, have lost your correspondent from Centralia and we, as a neighborhood, age of the best of friends and the kindest and most obliging neighbors; and last but not least the Club one of its most efficient members. We think Mr. McPherson is to be congratulated upon winning such a good wife, and we are sure the whole neighborhood will unite with us in sincere good wishes for their future happiness and prosperity. The bride was the recipient of a handsome cake from Mr. and Mrs. Landell. After an hour or so of social chat Mr. and Mrs. McPherson left for their home in Westminster. The wheat in this vicinity is a good average crop for this year, the yield being from twelve to fifteen centals per acre. Earley was a good crop, the most of it being cut for hay. The corn is also very good through this section. Fruit has been quite plentiful and of good quality. Apricots, peaches, pears, apples and grapes are very fine, giving us a foretaste of what is in store for us in the future. Centralia, Sept. 30. The Presbyterian Church, Westminster. EDITOR GAZETTE:—The usual monthly social in connection with the church was held in the Hall on Friday evening, the 17th, and was a great success. There was an excellent programme which gave general satisfaction.

The acre is large. Two hundred two gallons of syrup were made from one acre of cane, and a hundred and nine gallons of made from a lot of cane harvested at ground six rods less than the yield per acre next year greater, because the cane will reach closer together. Having the experience of the Minnesota state them, the planters here follow in vogue in that State and have the same distance apart as any planted. While this may be easy in Minnesota, the superior soil and the favorable climate of Southern California make planting unnecessary. Some of the raised the cane this year roots in the ground and plant the rows, thus doubling the Yearly planting of seed is. The roots of this year's crop, ground, will sprout in due season cane much earlier than cane the seed. This fact was verified once of this year, notwithstanding frost which covered the cane latter, and which gave rise to seas to whether the roots would as a test as severe as is likely experienced here.

But it must be remembered that the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana has its full complement of land, and should the boundaries be changed in any way, either by adding to or subtracting from said rancho, all of these subdivision lines are at once destroyed, and the different owners of parts of said rancho instead of owning a specific tract as now, which they have built upon, planted and improved, will only own an undivided interest in common with other owners; and it will require years of expensive litigation before another subdivision can be effected and before any owner will know where his land is. Besides, if a survey should be made and said survey should lap over on to the patented lands of other ranches, of course the owners of said lands will oppose any such survey and an expensive law-suit would ensue. If the owners of land on the Santiago de Santa Ana are not blind to their own interests, they will unite and protest against any change. As matters stand, they are secure in their titles and property; if the lines are changed, nine-tenths of the small land owners will be ruined. After the successful revolt o Mexico, no grants made previously by the King of Spain were of any value unless confirmed by the new Government of Mexico. Consequently, it is not of the least importance where the Santa Ana river ran in 1801 or in 1830; but it is all-important to know where the Santa Ana river ran in 1833 and '34. On that point there is abundance of testimony of living witnesses now on record at Washington. The decree of the Mexican Government fixed the boundary between the ranchos Los Bolesas and Santiago de Santa Ana in the channel of the Santa Ana river as it ran in 1833-34. There is no going behind that decree. Mr. J. A. Robinson, attorney-at-law, of San Francisco, has been employed and paid by property owners in the Santiago de Santa Ana to oppose a change, and he would like all of the owners in said grant who are opposed to any change in the existing state of affairs to authorize him to act for them also, as it would strengthen his hands. There will be no expense to them, as he is fully paid by the other parties. Personally, I have no interest in this matter, but I have public spirit enough to induce me to utter a word of warning to my neighbors when I see them about to commit "financial suicide," without apparently being aware of their danger. The parties I represent want no trouble, but if it comes they want no help—they are fully able to take care of themselves. And they are as fully resolved that in the future any attempt to interfere with their property will be promptly and summarily dealt with, no matter who the parties may be. When the titles to property in a section are disturbed or clouded, it has a tendency to cloud in a measure all of the titles of adjoining property. Purchasers become suspicious of all, and settlement is retarded. Wm. R. Olden. Explanatory Letter From Prof. Hilgard. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, Sept. 23, 1880.

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, Sept. 23, 1880. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Being, as you suppose, chiefly responsible for the appointment of Mr. F. W. Morse, on whose visit to your region you comment in your issue of Sept. 18, allow me to correct some misapprehensions of the nature and scope of his mission. It was the outgrowth of action taken by the Committee on the Phylloxera, of the State Board of Viticulture, requesting the co-operation of the University in ascertaining the extent to which the phylloxera had already invaded the vineyards of the State. Six weeks was the time assigned for purpose; and this fact is sufficient to show that nothing like the "thorough study" mentioned in your article could possibly have been contemplated. Mr. Morse is not, and does not pretend to be, an expert in viticulture, but simply a careful observer of facts, with no interest to serve or damage by his reports—points which, from past experience, I considered essential in the premises. He was not supposed or expected to give any suggestions to vinegrowers or to be able to recognize their grape varieties, but simply to report whether or not the phylloxera had appeared in the several districts. He visited Anaheim in obedience to my instructions, although assured by the Commissioner for your district, Mr. Rose, that there was no occasion for it—that there was none of the insect to be found in Los Angeles county. I truly hope that this may be so, for the area over which the post is already spread, has even thus been found to exceed so greatly all expectations, that the task of extermination will be a formidable one, if it can be compassed at all. My instructions to Mr. Morse were to ascertain all he could about existing diseases of the vine, but without going out of his way for anything except what related to the phylloxera. He has accordingly collected a good deal of valuable matter outside of the primary subject of his mandate, which will serve as starting points for future research by specialists. His report will be laid before the Board of Viticulture at its next meeting, while he himself will resume the duties in the laboratory, which have always been very satisfactorily discharged. E. W. HILGARD. The Los Angeles papers have recently contained grave charges against Wallace Leach, the Democratic candidate for Congress. They alleged that in 1872 he was known in Illinois as R. W. Leach; that he embezzled money; that, fearing detection, he ran away, leaving behind him a letter acknowledging his crime and conveying the intimation that he intended suicide. In proof of the charges, circumstantial accounts of the embezzlement and flight of Leach were republished from the St. Louis Democrat and the Rocky Mountain News. Leach replied to these attacks at a meeting in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening. The Herald has a full report of the "vindication." It is known that there is a powerful pressure being brought to bear upon Leach to withdraw and let L. J. Bone take his place as candidate for Congress. It is even said that Senator Farley will be here in a day or two to try, and effect such a conmunication. The Democrats must not forget the old proverb about "swapping horses while crossing a stream," and the disastrous effects which generally follow such a proceeding. As our readers know, the Supreme Court has had under consideration the question of issuing a mandamus to compel the Election Commissioners of San Francisco to prepare tally lists for municipal officers at the election next month. On Tuesday the Court denied the application for a mandamus, thus deciding that county officers are not to be elected this Fall. All the Justices concur in this decision except Myrick, who dismisses The Attorney-General of the State last week gave an official opinion in which he said: "County officers are to be elected this year under the provisions of Section 10, Article 22 of the Constitution." The most criminous lawyers of the State agree with him, but the decision of the Court, right or wrong, is final, and their construction of the Constitution must be submitted to. The idea prevails that the next Legislature may vault the Supervisors of various counties with the power to appoint the successors of the various county officials. But it is hard to tell what will be the uphot of the present chaotic condition of affairs. WASHINGTON, September 25—G. P. Williamson, Commissioner of the General Land Office, has called a meeting of the Surveyors-General of all the Western States and Territories in Salt Lake City for the fifth of October next. The object of the meeting is to discuss the present method of making surveys with a view to instituting certain reforms leading to better and more permanent work; under present lines.
