WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...FEBRUARY 5, 1881 AN ENERGETIC COMMISSION. When the resolution calling upon the Railroad Commissioners to make a report came up in the Senate, several members advocated delay until Beerstecher had recovered from his wound. Grove Johnson opposed delay and wanted to know where is the "high-backed and double-jointed antimonopolist—the great General and friend of the people?" When told that Gen. Stoneman was in Washington attending to his duties as Indian Commissioner, Mr. Johnson very pertinently inquired if one could hold a Federal and State office at the same time. The question remains unanswered. But what a farce this Railroad Commission is, to be sure! The Legislature as well as the people are in entire ignorance of what they have done, although everybody is well aware of what they have failed to do. The Commissioners themselves appear to be aware of their utter uselessness. Stoneman is in Washington bending his gigantic intellect to the solution of the Indian question; Cone is on his ranch dipping sheep, and Beerstecher, poor fellow, is sick. The Secretary is never heard of by anybody, and the only active member of the Board appears to be the Bailiff. His activity, however, is chiefly manifested in getting full of beer, thrashing an equally boozy companion and knocking a distinguished member of the San Francisco police force, who attempted to arrest him, down a flight of stairs. These proceedings while IRRIGATION MATTERS. We are in receipt of Part IV of the State Engineer's Report, which deals with the irrigation question. The subject is discussed very fully, and we have been unable to do aught but glance hastily over the fifty pages on which his views are printed. His solution of the question is summed up thus briefly: That the State shall direct and control the diversion of waters from the streams; insist upon their economical use; see that riparian proprietors are supplied with water for stock and domestic purposes, at least, if they cannot all come in for a share of the water for irrigation; see that all lands naturally dependent upon a public source of supply get their share, as far as the supply will go, upon some reasonable terms; see that the rights or privileges which have or may in the future accrue, be respected, without necessitating recourse to the Courts in every instance of conflict; and see that sufficient water is left in navigable streams to satisfy the interests of commerce, at stated seasons, when most needed. The Engineer proposes that the State shall pass an Act to ascertain the extent and nature of valid claims to water for agricultural, mining and manufacturing purposes; institute proceedings to define, for record, the extent and nature of all existing privileges, etc., etc. He also urges the passage of an Act to provide for the control of the streams of the State and to regulate the diversion of water therefrom, also an Act to promote irrigation. The present session of the Legislature is too near its close to expect that any of the measures touching the capacity of such either or any of them; the said Board shall be conclusive acity of said ditch or ditches. Of Supervisors shall also have all needful rules and regulation the free and uninterrupted flow said ditches, and to protect the injury by trespassing animals. Sec. 2. This Act shall take in force from and after its passage. Following is a copy of Johnson's bill, dividing the State and irrigable districts: Whereas, From physical causes, the material interests are so widely extended and character, that no general law the ownership, use and district for irrigable purposes can be able to the whole State. Such lated to foster and protect the one section might be injurious equal magnitude and important fore, that each and all sections the benefit of just and suitable to their climatic and physic it is enacted as follows: Section 1. The State shall not two districts, to be known as District and the Irrigable District. Sec. 2. The Drainage District consist of and be composed of these ties, viz.: Del Norte, Siskh Humboldt, Trinity, Shasta, Plumas, Butte, Sierra, Mena Sutter, Yuba, Nevada, Placema, Napa, Yolo, El Dorado, Sacramento, Amador, Cala Contra Costa, San Joaquin, no Mariposa, Stanislaus, Sanameda, Santa Cruz, Santa Mateo. Sec. 3. The Irrigable District consist of and be composed of these counties. (Here follows the State other than those designated 2.) A JUST VIEW. Strange as it may seem, there are men in Los Angeles city—men who pay large taxes and have a large influence—who concede the justice of county division and have the manliness to wish us success in our efforts to withdraw from a partnership which has become unprofitable and distasteful. We have received from one of these gentlemen a letter in which, after referring in complimentary terms to the last issue of the Gazette and the strength of the arguments in favor of division, he quotes from a letter he has written to a member of the Legislature. The quotation reads: "I trust that the bill to divide the county will pass. The proposed new County of Orange has more than territory, population and wealth sufficient to entitle them to a county government of their own, and they have a natural right under such circumstances to manage their local affairs in their own way. Nothing can oppose this right except arbitrary power, selfishness and injustice. With the county divided as proposed, Los Angeles will still be a very large, and in the near future a very wealthy and populous county. The request for division seems to me reasonable, just and proper, and in my judgment it would be arbitrary and wrong to refuse it under the circumstances. I know and have heard of no opposition to the measure here except what has appeared in the newspapers of the city." A DELUGE, such as never before experienced in the State, occurred in the northern counties the latter part to water for agricultural, mining and manufacturing purposes; institute proceedings to define, for record, the extent and nature of all existing privileges, etc., etc. He also urges the passage of an Act to provide for the control of the streams of the State and to regulate the diversion of water therefrom, also an Act to promote irrigation. The present session of the Legislature is too near its close to expect that any of the measures advocated by the Engineer will be acted upon, but the two years which will intervene before the next Legislature meets is not too long a time to thoroughly study the methods and laws proposed in this report. It is probable that the irrigation question will occupy as much attention in the Legislature which convenes two years hence as the Debris Act does in the present session, but let us hope that it will be free from the scandals and taint of corruption which clings to the Slickens bill. Following are several matters relating to the subject which have come up in the Legislature since the last issue of the Gazette: ASSEMBLY BILL No. 306. INTRODUCED BY MR. KELLOGO, JAN. 24, 1881. An Act to amend an Act entitled "An Act Authorizing the Boards of Supervisors of the Counties in which Water is Sold for Purposes of Irrigation, to Fix the Rates at which Water shall be Sold," Approved March 26, 1880. The People of the State of California, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact as follows: SECTION 1. Section one of said Act is hereby amended so as to read as follows: Section 1. The Boards of Supervisors of the several counties of this State in which water is appropriated, furnished, and sold principally for the purposes of irrigation, are hereby authorized and required to fix the maximum rates at which such water shall be furnished and sold at a meeting to be held in the month of February of each year; provided, that in the year eighteen hundred and eighty-one such rates shall be fixed at the first meeting after the passage of this Act. The rates so fixed and established shall be in force from and after the first day of July after the date of fixing said rates, and shall continue in force for the period of one year; provided, that nothing in this section shall apply to water furnished within the limits of any incorporated city and county, city, or town. Said Boards of Supervisors shall have full power and authority, in their respective counties, to make all needful rules and regulations to secure the just apportionment of the water among the owners Garden Grove The social event of the par was the marriage of Miss G. Mr. Jerome Fulsome. The Bachelor's Club watched that leaving our town, the tears streaks down their faces; and draw up the following resolution: WHEREAS, Among the men and unaccountable things occurring, the saddening though no event of our brother Jerome Fulsome, has at last been numbered doubting that he is happier condition, yet as a testimonial for the vacant place he has lovership therefore be it Resolved, That the members hereby express their heartfelt loss of our brother and express determination to follow. Resolved, That the members wear a sprig of weeping will for the period of the next th Resolved, That a copy of it be sent to the Anaheim G.A.LICATION and a copy of that par our brother. After singing the following adjourned. He's left us for a better start. While we remain to sigh, He sings while smiles play on "Oh, how is this for high! But our departed brother's We hope to see again. And at the last to take our A club of married men. That evening as a member jected a stick of stove wood The request for division seems to me reasonable, just and proper, and in my judgment it would be arbitrary and wrong to refuse it under the circumstances. I know and have heard of no opposition to the measure here except what has appeared in the newspapers of the city." A DELUGE, such as never before experienced in the State, occurred in the northern counties the latter part of last week and continuing into the present week. In Napa, Sonoma, Solano, Sacramento, Siskiyou and other counties immense damage has been done to public and private property. The damage in Napa city alone is estimated at $50,000. On Monday the Sacramento river was 26 1-2 feet above low water mark—something unprecedented. The country around Sacramento is overflowed, and the entire valley on Wednesday presented the appearance of an inland sea, the levees having broken. The town of Washington, in Yolo county, is inundated. The dampness is simply prodigious. The following subdivision of Los Angeles county for Legislative purposes has been agreed upon and undoubtedly will be incorporated in the Apportionment bill. Long term Senatorial district—Los Angeles City and the township of Ballona, San Antonio, and Wilmington. Short term Senatorial district—The remainder of the county. First Assembly district—Township of Soledad, San Gabriel, El Monte, Ballona, San Antonio, Wilmington, and San Fernando, and Sepulveda precinct. Second Assembly district—The City of Los Angeles. Third Assembly district—the township of Azusa, San Jose, Los Nietos, Anaheim, Westminster, Fountain Valley, Santa Ana, Silverado, and San Juan Capistrano. —Rain began to fall at 4 o'clock yesterday morning, and at 8 o'clock the gauge recorded a fall of .18 inches. Touching the capacity of such ditches, or either or any of them; the said findings of said Board shall be conclusive of the capacity of said ditch or ditches. Said Boards of Supervisors shall also have power to make all needful rules and regulations to protect the free and uninterrupted flow of water in said ditches, and to protect the same from injury by trespassing animals or otherwise. Sec. 2. This Act shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage. Following is a copy of Senator Grove Johnson's bill, dividing the State into drainage and irrigable districts: Whereas, From physical and climatic causes, the material interests of the State are so widely extended and diversified in character, that no general law in relation to the ownership, use and distribution of water for irrigable purposes can be made applicable to the whole State. Such a law calculated to foster and protect the interests of one section might be injurious to another of equal magnitude and importance; now, therefore, that each and all sections may have the benefit of just and suitable laws applicable to their climatic and physical conditions, it is enacted as follows: Section 1. The State shall be divided into two districts, to be known as the Drainage District and the Irrigable District. Sec. 2. The Drainage District shall consist of and be composed of the following counties, viz.: Del Norte, Siskiyou, Modoc, Humboldt, Trinity, Shasta, Lassen, Tehama, Plumas, Butte, Sierra, Mendocino, Colusa, Sutter, Yuba, Nevada, Placer, Lake, Sonoma, Napa, Yolo, El Dorado, Marin, Solano, Sacramento, Amador, Calaveras, Alpine, Contra Costa, San Joaquin, Tuolumne, Mono, Mariposa, Stanislaus, San Francisco, Alameda, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara and San Mateo. Sec. 3. The Irrigable District shall consist of and be composed of the following counties. (Here follows the counties of the State other than those designated in Section 2.) West has introduced in the Senate an irrigation project, which is the converse of the debris scheme, minus the State aid feature. Masquerade Characters.

I.R.M.BARHAM as Tax Collector in and for the said Town of Anaheim,buy virtue of the power and authority in me vested by law unless the taxes delinquent,together with the costs and percentages are paidwill onMONDAY THE 28th DAY OF FEB- West has introduced in the Senate an irrigation project, which is the converse of the debris scheme, minus the State aid feature. It provides for a Board, to consist of the Governor, Surveyor-General, Attorney-General and the State Engineer, and for the appointment of District Directors by the Governor. An initial tax, not to exceed $3 per acre, in districts to be irrigated, may be levied, and after that, sufficient to meet current expenses. This money is to be paid to the State treasury, to the credit of the District Construction Fund. The tax is to be paid in six annual installments. The Irrigation Directors are to have supervision of the natural water-courses, and the distribution therefrom, and may condemn and appropriate water rights. The bill will be made to fit into Johnson's to divide the State into a Drainage and an Irrigation District. Garden Grove Items. The social event of the past two weeks was the marriage of Miss Clara Harris to Mr. Jerome Fulsome. The members of the Bachelor's Club watched the bridal party leaving our town, the tears making shining streaks down their faces; and then retired to draw up the following resolutions: Whereas, among the many mysterious and unaccountable things constantly occurring, the saddening though not unlooked for event of our brother Jerome Fulsome's marriage, has at last been numbered, though not doubting that he is happier in his present condition, yet as a testimonial of our regret for the vacant place he has left in our membership therefore be it Resolved, That the members of this club hereby express their heartfelt sorrow at the loss of our brother and express their unalterable determination to follow in his footsteps. Resolved, That the members of this club wear a sprig of weeping willow in their hats for the period of the next thirty days. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Anaheim Gazette for publication and a copy of that paper be sent to our brother. After singing the following ode, the club adjourned. He's left us for a better state, While we remain to sigh, Hesings while smiles play o'er his face, "Oh, how is this for high" But our departed brother's face, We hope to see again, And at the last to take our place, A club of married men.

The managers of the Masquerade Ball, as a guarantee that they are alive to the interest of their patrons, now take pleasure in announcing that they have secured a large and varied assortment of costumes which will be ready for inspection and selection on and after Wednesday next, so that all who desire to attend the ball en masque can do so at a slight expense, the rental of the various costumes for ladies and gentlemen being placed at an extremely low figure. They also wish to add further that their sole interest and untiring efforts to make the affair a success is that the Ladies' Benevolent Society fund shall be materially increased, it being the intention of the Committee that all the net proceeds of the ball shall be devoted to that worthy object. They have also secured the services of a lady from Los Angeles, who will be in attendance a few days previous to the ball to make any desired change in the costumes rented for that occasion at no additional expense to our patrons.

But our departed brother's face, We hope to see again, And at the last to take our place, A club of married men. That evening as a member of the club projected a stick of stove wood after the cat which had been stealing some bacon from the table, and as he fished the dish cloth from the water bucket, he was heard to murmur, "I wish it had been me." Rumors are afloat that several families from Northern Illinois and Canada are coming to Garden Grove at different times during the year. So mote it be. Wm. G. Badger of San Francisco is improving his place by having it set out to trees. So far as I have been able to learn, the sentiment of most in this community is in favor of county division. There is no denying the fact that the establishment of a new county would be a great convenience to persons in this part of the county as well as a saving of money. Garden Grove, Feb. 2nd, 1881. Sr. Louis, January 26.—Archibald Gibson, Second Lieutenant of the Seventh United States Cavalry, and the son of a prominent lawyer, died here to-day of inflammation of the brain, caused by a singular event occurring while he was a West Point student. One day while on parade a spider got into his ear. The rules prohibited his removing it, and he stood in the ranks while the creature worked its way into his ear, and when he was dismissed his ear was full of blood. This caused corrosion of the bone next to the brain, and he has never been completely well since, although having done hard service in Dakota. Henry Thoman, who has resided in Tia Jaana Valley, San Diego county, for ten years, was thrown from his wagon on Monday and his neck was broken by the fall. Thermometrical Record.
