WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...MARCH 4, 1882 Kleinigkeiten. — Wm. Zobet, an employee at the railroad depot in Los Angeles, has become insane. — A lodge of A. O. U. W. is about to be instituted at San Fernando and another is talked of at Orange. — The hotel registers show that travel is greatly on the increase, the visitors being mostly Eastern people. — Mr. H. K. W. Bent, the lessee of the Bixby tract in Yorba district, is adding one hundred acres of alfalfa to his already large pasture. — Mr. and Mrs. Patterson and daughter, of Iowa, have been spending the past few days in town. They are relatives of Mrs. Geo. B. Shaffer. — About six thousand head of sheep have been bought lately in this vicinity by parties who intend to take them to Texas. The prices paid ranged from $150 to $3 per head. — The will of Daniel Kramer was admitted to probate in Judge Howard's court on Monday, and letters testamentary were ordered to be issued to D. Jonathan Kramer and Samuel Kramer. — Mr. Olmstead of Santa Monica is in town. It is possible that he will remain permanently and engage in business here. He has for some years conducted a news and stationery business at the seaside city. COUNTY DIVISION. It will be ten years next October since the writer assumed control of the Gazette, and during all that time it has been a consistent and persistent advocate of the division of Los Angeles county. It is the only newspaper in the county which has favored the measure, and every argument adduced in support of the scheme was made public through its columns. It is, therefore, with inexpressible gratification that it welcomes at this late day the advocacy and countenance of such an able and influential paper as the Los Angeles Express. From being the most persistent opponent of the measure, that paper is now its warm advocate. Under the caption of "How to reduce taxes" it begins an editorial in this way: For the past ten years the southern part of the county has agitated division. Every Legislature has been besieged with petitions to that effect, and delegates have been sent to Sacramento at every session to urge the passage of a bill dividing the county. The question has been carried into politics, and has been a subject of much embarrassment to the parties in making up their respective tickets. Indeed it is fair to presume, from all the indications made public in the past, that a very extensive, persistent and powerful sentiment prevails among the people of the southern section of the county in favor of separation. The new Constitution has made county division more difficult than it was before, but still the obstacles are not insuperable, and we doubt not that the time will come when the divisionists shall be enabled to carry out their cherished object. It then proceeds to say: that whenever division does take place, the southern line of the old county should be drawn so as to leave Los Angeles with a territory small enough to consolidate the city and county governments, thus doing away with a dual set of officers. It points out that San Francisco, which has only one set of officials, has a much less tax rate than any other city in the State, though notoriously the most corrupt. It asks: If San Francisco, with her jobs and wholesale steals, with her hordes of office-seekers and piece-clubs, with her manipulators and corrupt rings, can be carried on at a rate of The will of Daniel Kramer was admitted to probate in Judge Howard's court on Monday, and letters testamentary were ordered to be issued to D. Jonathan Kramer and Samuel Kramer. Mr. Olmstead of Santa Monica is in town. It is possible that he will remain permanently and engage in business here. He has for some years conducted a news and stationery business at the seaside city. A horde of Deputy Assessors will be let loose on Monday to harass the people and ask pertinent (or impartitive) questions in regard to their financial standing. All taxable property owned at noon on the first Monday in March is liable to assessment. Mr. Peter Edwards, who was in town on Wednesday, informs us that he is already at work improving the apartments at Anaheim Landing in anticipation of the summer visitors. The indications are that the landing will be the resort of even a greater number of people than assembled there last summer. Mr. Charles Hilmer informs us that the feed is growing rapidly during the last few days of warm weather. A few more showers (and a March without showers) is a rarity even in Southern California) and there will be feed enough left to carry through considerable stock in this vicinity. Mr. Henry Wayman of Westminster is very busy adorning his place with evergreens and fruit trees and making preparations for pasturing stock on a ranch located three miles north of the Black Star coal mine. He is also fortunate in having in 620 acres of barley, which stimulated by the late rains, is doing finely and promises to yield largely. The apportionment of public school moneys heretofore has been made on the basis of the number of consuls children in the district; the apportionment published today is based on the average attendance of pupils. It will be seen that Anaheim, as formerly, gets the second largest apportionment, Los Angeles being slightly ahead. There is an encumbrance of $5000 on the Horticultural Pavilion in Los Angeles, and an effort to raise the amount by subscription has proved a failure, only $1800 being subscribed. Unless further time is granted, or other arrangements made, the work of tearing down the structure will commence to-day. As if cognizant of the fact that this is the Lenten season, the fish are swarming in countless numbers at Anaheim Landing. A few weeks ago they were so scarce that sometimes the fishermen would get scarce a It then proceeds to say that whenever division does take place, the southern line of the old county should be drawn so as to leave Los Angeles with a territory small enough to consolidate the city and county governments, thus doing away with a dual set of officers. It points out that San Francisco, which has only one set of officials, has a much less tax rate than any other city in the State, though notoriously the most corrupt. It asks: If San Francisco, with her jobs and wholesale steals, with her hordes of office-seekers and piece-clubs, with her manipulators and corrupt rings, can be carried on at a rate of taxation one-fourth less than Los Angeles with her double-headed set of officers, no one will deny that we should hasten to take advantage of the chances which the Constitution holds out to us to consolidate our city and county under a single government. The whole logic of the article is simply irresistible; and it proves also that the Express is a progressive paper and is not unwilling to admit the fallacies it formerly gave utterance to. For, if we remember right, it formerly maintained with a great show of reason that the division of the county, with the dividing line drawn at New River, would have neither county with sufficient territory to carry on business without a ruinous rate of taxation. Now it proves that it is possible to get along with an infinitely less amount of territory; that, in fact, county division is not only desirable but actually necessary to the keeping of taxation within due bounds. Taxpayers in Los Angeles pay annually a tax of $2.38 for State, county and municipal purposes, while in San Francisco the rate is only $1.80$. Thus it will be seen that if the views of the Express generally obtain in Los Angeles, we are likely to have county division thrust upon its willy nilly. This would indeed be a pleasant termination of a ten-year's battle for it. It would be a much better ending of the contest than we ever hoped for. In imitation of the candor of our contemporary, we confess that we had always some doubts as to the propriety of making New River the dividing line, and feel relieved that we are to have in the new county the rich and productive country lying North of the river.

Unless further time is granted, or other arrangements made, the work of tearing down the structure will commence to-day. As if cognizant of the fact that this is the Lenten season, the fish are swarming in countless numbers at Anaheim Landing. A few weeks ago they were so scarce that sometimes the fishermen would get scarce a dozen pounds at a haul. Now, the case is reversed. On Monday, Capt. Wilson made a catch of two tons of crokers, mullet and blue fish. Attention is directed to the new advertisement of Goodman & Rimpan. They have reduced prices so as to clear out as much of their stock as possible before removing to the new brick store now being built for them. Take your cash with you, and you will find that they will sell you goods as cheap, if not cheaper than you can get them in Los Angeles or anywhere else. The Cajon Irrigation Company are seriously considering the propriety of erecting a telephone line along their ditch, a distance of about twenty miles. The estimated cost is about $500. All acquainted with the management of irrigating ditches need not be told that the telephone will prove a valuable adjunct, by enabling the Zanjeros to have instant communication with one another and with the head office.

The rainfall on February 25th and 26th, as recorded by Mr. E. S. Saxton's gauge, amounted to 13-16 inches; the fall for the month of February 2 and 3-16 inches and the total fall of the season 4½ inches. There is a good deal of hard and disagreeable work connected with irrigation, but when one considers the results which follow this artificial mode of applying moisture, he will be forced to admit that the compensation outvalues the work a hundred fold. Compare also, the physical condition of the people here with those who live in parts of this State where no irrigation is required—where the excessive rains require the moisture to be drained off the land instead of being put on. The maintenance of perfect health ought to be the first aim of every person, and the physical system can be kept freer fromailments in Anaheim than it can in the swampy, moisture-surcharged atmosphere of places of excessive rainfall. It is better to expend one's money in the purchase of irrigating water than to expend it in the purchase of quinine. The Board of Town Trustees held their regular monthly meeting on Wednesday. The only business transacted besides the usual routine was the introduction of an amendment to the ordinances, designed to prevent the staking of horses so that travel on the public highway is impeded. The Clerk was also authorized to publish the usual election preclamation for the annual election of town officers, which will be held on the last Monday of April. Dr. E. L. Cowan was appointed Inspector of Election, Messrs. Frank Ey and Otto Rust, Judges.

One teacher is assigned to each district for every seventy census children or fraction thereof, equal to twenty. Two hundred dollars is apportioned for each teacher assigned, except in Pountain Valley and Sulphur Springs districts, which, having less than twenty census children, receive but $100 per teacher. The remaining money is apportioned upon the average daily attendance of last year, at the rate of $10.60 per capita. This is the first apportionment made upon the basis of the average daily attendance at school, and it will be found upon comparing it with other apportionments that this method, of apportioning the school moneya works greatly to the advantage of those districts which are doing the educating in our county: DISTRICT.

Sixteen bricklayers and eleven carpenters, with the necessary complement of helpers, are now at work, making with the Superintendent and foreman, an effective force of 40 men. The weekly pay roll is in the neighborhood of $700, nearly all of which is spent amongst the merchants of Los Angeles. The carpenters will commence laying the second floor on Monday."
