WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...APRIL 20, 1881 After struggling manfully against the disease for a couple of months, the editor of the Santa Ana "Herald" succumbed to an attack of Anaheim phobia last week, and made the mistake of continuing to edit his paper while the delirium which always attends that disease was still upon him. It is a settled fact that the bigger the fool the more firmly does this peculiar disease fasten itself upon him. The present editor of the "Herald" seems to have got it worse than any of his predecessors. The Sacramento correspondent of the "Chronicle" says: It is said that many of the Senators will not return permanently to their districts after the adjournment of the Legislature. Conger has already settled on a ranch in Sonoma. Anderson, Lampson, West and Ryan have their eyes directed towards "fresh fields and pastures new." Watson of Nevada will take up his residence in San Francisco as Naval Officer of the port. Last but not least, Baker has his trunk chalked for Washington. The Supreme Court has affirmed the order and judgment of the Court below in the case of Osgood vs. The El Dorado Water and Deep Gravel Mining Company, holding that the defendant's grantors had the right to appropriate the water in controversy, which is in El Dorado county, if they required a postal right there. CALIFORNIA'S OPPORTUNITY. The meeting of the Atchison, Topeka and Kansas Railroad and the Southern Pacific Railroad means more to California than the completion of another transcontinental communication. Their junction is at Deming, in Eastern Arizona, and Deming is only some eighty miles distant from El Paso, a frontier town of Mexico. The Mexican Central Railway holds concessions from the Mexican government for the building of several thousand miles of road, and has already constructed and is actually operating many miles of track. Before many months go by, their main line will have reached El Paso, and the land of the Aztecs will be connected with the vast web of railways which overspreads our country. From a commercial point of view Mexico is practically a new country, and affords a vast field for American enterprise. Her imports are chiefly from Europe, costing excessively to the consumer, and the work of importing is done chiefly by Germans and Englishmen. With the opening of railway communication a tidal wave of commerce from this country will sweep southward—a new invasion of Anahuac—more irresistible, more potent in its peaceful might, as well as more prolific of benefit to invaded and invader, than that which Hernan Cortes, the greatest man of his generation, successfully planned and led to a bloody triumph. Let California be up and doing, for she should take a leading part in intercourse with Mexico. Our proximity to her borders, as well as the The Supreme Court has affirmed the order and judgment of the Court below in the case of Osgood vs. The El Dorado Water and Deep Gravel Mining Company, holding that the defendant's grantors had the right to appropriate the water in controversy, which is in El Dorado county, if they acquired a vested right therein prior to the issuance of plaintiff's patent, the plaintiff's rights, by express statutory enactment, are subject to the rights of the defendant. This, of course, depends on the question whether the grantors of the defendant made a valid appropriation of the water, and this, in turn, on the question whether they gave proper notice of their intention to appropriate it, and, if so, whether they prosecuted the work in that behalf with reasonable diligence. In this case the jury found in favor of the defendant on both propositions. Mr. E. R. Stevens, writing from San Francisco to the Santa Barbara "Press," calls the attention of farmers to the probable lucrativeness this season of growing small white beans. Heretofore the quantity of beans grown in the different sections of California has been so great that the accumulation of stock carried over from year to year reached enormous figures. An outlet for the vast surplus could not be found, owing to abundant crops everywhere, and many farmers, aware of these facts, discontinued growing an article of produce which, if not exactly unsalable, at any rate found a low market and gave them but meagre compensation for a year's toil. This last year, however, California has been called upon to supply foreign markets with white beans, and the exports have been so great that after making allowance for the quantity needed for home consumption, our surplus stock will be worked off by the time the new is ready for market, and those farmers raising white beans and exercising care in threshing and picking will no doubt be well rewarded for their labor by finding a market which will leave them a handsome profit. This applies only to the small white and pea beans, which are the varieties most sought after by foreign markets. The general lowering of the rate of interest on money has set free a vast amount of capital which hitherto has been kept from its really legitimate uses—the cementing of the commonwealth's prosperity by investments in manufactures. Mexico manufactures comparatively nothing, and would eagerly take all that California might send to her; and no argument is necessary to show that in the markets of that country California would successfully compete with the Eastern States. The Governor of "Michigan, my Michigan" is a man of sense and judgment. Thursday, the 28th inst., was set apart as a day to be devoted to tree planting all over the State—"Arbor Day," as it is termed in the proclamation. It is easy enough for an Executive to issue a proclamation, but another thing to get the people of the State to comply with its request. The piety and prayer enjoined in Thanksgiving proclamations are, we grieve to say, disregarded by the majority of the people, and turkey and cranberry sauce substituted. But in the absence of any knowledge to the contrary, we assume that the Michiganders comply with the proclamation of their Governor, and plant trees for the public good on the day set apart. It is a good plan, as it not only beautifies the country but, in the opinion of many scientists, increases the rainfall. It is a plan which, if imitated by the people of California, would be of great benefit to the State.

disastrous effects to the trees or vines injudiciously watered. The temptation to use water when it can be had in abundance is hard to be resisted; it stimulates the trees, but its injudicious and oft-repeated application entails an early exhaustion and death, just as the excessive use of stimulants is fatal to man. Mr. Anson Van Leuven, of old San Bernardino, tells the editor of the "Press and Horticulturist" that the gum or root disease is making sad inroads on his crange orchard of nineteen-year old trees, and he thinks that too little cultivation and too much irrigation is the cause. Such an admission is proof that Mr. Van Leuven is a progressive man, and that he intends to abandon his slipshod method of fruit farming. We have no doubt as to the correctness of his diagnosis, and if he can impress upon his Riverside neighbors the necessity for using the plow more and the irrigating ditch less, he will save them much future chagrin and loss. We heard an intelligent fruit grower say several months ago that the trees in many Riverside orchards showed plainly the evil effects of too much irrigation, and that unless a different system was adopted the roots would rot and the tree die at the very time when it should, under favorable conditions, be at its greatest vigor. The following from the "Bulletin" is mighty interesting reading to taxpayers: The tax levy bill now before the Senate provides for raising for the Thirty-third fiscal year $1,868,870 for the General Fund, $1,511,846 for the Schools, and $315,000 for Interest and Sinking Fund—total, $3,695,716. The law requires that this sum shall be raised together with 12 per cent for delinquencies and collection. The total sum to be raised therefore will be $4,139,801. The taxable basis for last year was $666,182,320. It will require a tax of 62.15c on the $100 on this basis to raise the sum demanded. To this is to be added 5c for "Slickens" if it should be constitutional, which will bring up the total to 67.15c. No manipulation or attempted manipulation on the part of the Board of Equalization can blur this fact. The tax last year was 64c; in the preceding year 62½c, and in the year preceding that 55c. The economy of the new Constitution is becoming very apparent.

BORDER BUFFIANS. The Reign of Crime in Arizona and New Mexico. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Eastern Arizona and southern New Mexico seem to be passing through that transition epoch generally attendant upon the American system of State building. But a few years ago these vast regions were in possession of the indigenous lords of the soil, and the western wave of American civilization broke upon the bar of the bad lands or passed on over them to the fairer fields of the coast. With the discovery of the immense mineral deposits of the two Territories, a new era dawned upon Arizona and New Mexico, sudden and bright in promise as a tropical sunrise. Myriads of hardy miners swarmed throughout the land, prospecting every gulch and canyon, and in their wake followed the horde of human birds of prey—assassins more brutal than the Thugs of India, harpies of the other sex, fouler than those of pagan fable. These birds of prey are akin to those who follow the march of an army, but are bolder and more dangerous. In the regions mentioned the Government has not yet caused the public lands to be surveyed; consequently the two railroad companies whose lines traverse the country, the Atchison, Topeka and Kansas, and the Southern Pacific, have no legal title to the land beyond that comprised in the right of way, extending to a distance of two hundred feet on either side of the road. The companies having no exclusive rights outside of this narrow belt, any one is free to establish himself, or herself, elsewhere. Many prominent members of the class which makes war upon society have taken advantage of this state of affairs, and, at almost every station between Las Vegas and Tucson, small board shanties and tents border upon the forbidden zone. These pitfalls for the unwary are o.p. pistol of the mild person, who was heard to regret that his glasses had been so disarranged that he was unable to take good aim. In this regret the general public joined, and the train went on its way. These are a few of the occurrences of a week along the line of the two railroads. The companies are, of course, powerless, and some of the counties through which their lines pass are still unorganized. But these wrongs will right themselves as the number of law abiding citizens increases. This corner of our country seems to be the last abiding place of the peculiar class of outlaws which is apparently a necessary factor in the settlement of the territories; and, like their predecessors, the Apaches, Comanches and Navajos, they too must be "wiped out" in one way or another. THE THREE FIENDS. EDITOR GAZETTE:—You noticed one variety of fiend in your paper last week—the horse and cow fiend, who tethers his animal across the public highway so as to do his neighbor the greatest possible injury with as little trouble to himself as agreeable. Another is the dog fiend, who keeps one or more of said curses, or curses, for the amusement of burglars and tramps and the special annoyance of all passers-by, whether afoot, on horseback or in vehicles. Another is the cigarette fiend, who seems to be in a special haste this season. He generally waits till the grain is ripe enough to cut, or till a good, high stubble invites his lighted paper; but he has already made his appearance known by throwing it on the straw used for repairing the road, and on Tuesday afternoon setting fire to the bridge on the Los Angeles road, a mile and a half north of town, but which some considerate passer-by extinguished in time to save. As the straw did not extend twenty feet from the bridge either way, it shows how careful he was to do his work well, not merely accidentally. The writer would suggest as an antidote to the first of these evils a knife or hatchet, in every case cutting the rope rather than risking plasures of living in a country where the thermometer climbs to 116° and remains there three weeks at a time. Every one intends to have a good time on Mayday at Anaheim Landing or in the Santiago Canyon. Garden Grove, April 27, 1881. The teachers of the Santa Ana Valley Association will hold their meeting at the Picnic Grove, Santiago Canyon, on Saturday, April 30th. It is expected that each member of the association will furnish a part of the literary entertainment. Although it will be a somewhat impromptu affair, the teachers unite in inviting their friends to bring their lunch baskets and have a good time with them. Oscar E. Mack, Sec'y. In order that the question of the constitutionality of the Debris Commission may be definitely settled, Attorney-General Hart has decided to immediately institute an action in the name of the people of the State. Said action, it is understood, will test the right of W. H. Parks, Niles Searles and W. F. Fox, to hold office and exercise powers of Commissioners under the act known as the Debris bill. He will, in addition, the more fully to set rest the mooted questions, advise the State Treasurer to refuse payment on demand of warrants drawn on the "Drainage Fund." This course will necessitate the application by the Commissioners to the Courts for a writ of mandamus upon the Treasurer. Other legal proceedings have been determined upon, looking to a full and speedy decision by the Supreme Court on the question of the constitutionality of the Debris bill. In this connection it may be stated that the Attorney-General has expressed himself as entirely satisfied as to the constitutionality of the act, and only brings the action out of deference to solicitations from various sections of the State. In order that the points involved may receive the most profound attention, the Bar of the State will be invited to argue the case before the Supreme Court. the Atchison, Topeka and Kansas, and the Southern Pacific, have no legal title to the land beyond that comprised in the right of way, extending to a distance of two hundred feet on either side of the road. The companies having no exclusive rights outside of this narrow belt, any one is free to establish himself, or herself, elsewhere. Many prominent members of the class which makes war upon society have taken advantage of this state of affairs, and, at almost every station between Las Vegas and Tucson, small board shanties and tents border upon the forbidden zone. These pitfalls for the unwary are ostensibly restaurants and saloons, but woe to him who seeks food or drink in these dens, where robbery the most barefaced, and not infrequently sudden death, await him. A short time ago a passenger entered one of these places at Deming, a station pre-eminent for lawlessness, in order to obtain a glass of beer, and very foolishly placed a twenty-dollar bill on the counter, requesting his change. The bill was swept into the till with a scornful laugh from the bar tender, and the remark that in that establishment no change was given. On another occasion, at a station on the Atchison, Topeka and Kansas Railroad, in broad daylight, a passenger, who had strolled to a distance of some three hundred yards from the track, found himself confronted by two men on horseback. One of them, affecting to recognize him, demanded the payment of an alleged debt of five dollars. The passenger demurring, a revolver was displayed by the unexpected creditor. The passenger took out a roll of bills for the purpose of satisfying the demand, and was informed that he need not return it to his pocket. The second highwayman ordered his victim to hand over his watch. It is needless to say that he did so; whereupon the two horsemen rode leisurely away. Only last week two men were lynched, one at Raton station, on the Atchison, Topeka and Kansas Railroad, the other at Otero, the next station to the southward. Two brakemen had "gone through" an old man, a passenger on an emigrant train. The passenger complained to the superintendent, who discharged the men. A day or two afterward, one of them, Lavine by name, an outlaw from an Eastern State, as was afterwards discovered, attacked the old man with a club and killed him. He also shot two bystanders, one of them fatally. This took place in the day time, in full view of the employes of the road. Lavine, who had taken his way on foot across the plain, was pursued and brought back to Raton. A bale rope was put about his neck, he was taken to a tree just back of the station, and hauled up to a convenient limb, where his body hung until the next day. The other case was that of a physician who, being called in to prescribe for a sick girl at Raton, gave her morphine and outraged her repeatedly. Before death, the victim recovered her senses sufficiently to make the matter known. The man was taken, by unmasked carriage down to Otero, and hanged to appearance known by throwing it on the straw used for repairing the road, and on Tuesday afternoon setting fire to the bridge on the Los Angeles road, a mile and a half north of town, but which some considerate passer-by extinguished in time to save. As the straw did not extend twenty feet from the bridge either way, it shows how careful he was to do his work well, not merely accidentally. The writer would suggest as an antidote to the first of these evils a knife or hatchet, in every case cutting the rope rather than risking a drive across it. To the second, next to a pistol ball, a little strychnine in a bit of meat dropped at the appropriate time would save many a runaway. To the third—well, "first catch your hare." LYNCH. A PERTINENT LETTER. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Having read an article in your paper on "Staking Horses," I want to ask if there is a law to do away with another nuisance, viz., dogs! These animals spring out at our horses, biting their heels, jumping at their heads, and frightening them in all ways; also, catching at the habits of equestriennes. In the past month I have heard of half a dozen cases where serious accidents would have occurred had not the horses been very gentle. Not only are we attacked on the roads, but several times ladies have been greatly alarmed and actually bitten by dogs at private houses. If there is no law for our protection we will be a law unto ourselves, and soon there will be fewer dogs in this county. ONE OF THE LADIES. CARD FROM MR. DARLING. ANAHEIM, April 28th. EDITOR GAZETTE: In your issue of April 16th was a statement of the average daily tonnage of freight handled at Anaheim and other stations on this division for the year 1880, which is correct. I would not however desire it to be understood that nine tons per day was the total quantity of freight handled here. The figures given were only intended to show the amount handled by agents at the several stations and do not embrace car load lots of freight received or forwarded, such as grain, stock, wine, lumber, flour, etc., which were handled by shippers. RespY Yours. T. A. DAKLING, Agent. ORANGE ITEMS. The thermometer was away up above zero on last Monday and Tuesday over here. Corn planting has almost ceased, and all that is up is looking splendid, but the people have found out that it takes water to raise a crop of corn, consequently there has been very few acres planted on land not covered with water stock. LIVONIA, N.Y., April 17.—W. S. Coe of South Livonia cut his foot badly with an axe. His uncle, L. M. Coe, dressed it, and the patient was soon free from pain. But his uncle began to feel pains in the same spot on his own foot, and on pulling off his boot and stocking he found a mark just like the cut on the injured man's foot, and experienced the sensation of a fresh wound. He has even had to walk with a cane part of the time. Doctors call it a case of pure sympathy. NEW YORK, April 26th.—The marriage of Whitclaw Reid to the daughter of D. O. Mills took place to-night at 8:30 at the residence of the bride's father. Fifth avenue. The ceremony was followed by a reception, at which a large number of distinguished guests were present. The presents were numerous and costly, the bride receiving five million dollars as her dowry. The newly married couple sail the latter part of the week for Europe. The loquat is susceptible of very great improvement, and offers a grand opportunity for the exercise of horticultural skill. It is capable of development into one of the grandest fruits in cultivation, and it will thrive best in climates adapted for orange culture, though it will not fruit well in a climate where the winters are cold. It will not thrive under the same degree of cold in winter as the orange, because its flowers appear in late autumn when frosts would prevent the fruits from developing. To destroy insects on roses, take 5 pounds lime, 3 pounds coarse tobacco, 4 pound sulphur. Slack the lime, and when it is hot and about the consistency of paste add the sulphur, which must be thoroughly mixed with it; then add 3 gallons of water; allow the whole to settle and pour off the liquid. Steep the tobacco in five pailsfull of boiling water for twelve hours; and then add the lime and sulphur water. It is then ready for use and should be used with a syringe. Price Reduced.

Mr. Clark, the brother of A. B. Clark, for the last few days has been comparing the "Yale Oranges" with some he is going to raise.

Parker visited Los Angeles on last Monday, and found the road long, hot and dusty. All those who don't believe in winter irrigation I think can be convinced that it is the best plan by visiting Mr. Uriah Shaffer's orange grove and comparing his trees with those of his neighbors that haven't been irrigated.
