WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...JULY 22, 1852 THE STATE ENGINEER AND THE SUBMERGED DAM. Two years or so ago, when the State Engineer had a corps of Engineers distributed throughout the Southern counties gathering information in regard to the water supply, methods of irrigation, etc., the Gazette suggested, in an editorial of some length, the advisability of making a careful survey of the Santa Ana river at a point somewhere near Anaheim, with a view to getting data which would be of value whenever the time arrived for the building of a submerged dam. The article referred to was brought to the notice of the State Engineer and his chief assistant, and they at once adopted the suggestion. The point in the river known as Bed Rock Crossing was selected as being the point where the construction of a dam would most likely be attended with the least expense and be of the greatest service. Borings were made to ascertain the depth to bed rock and such other investigations and observations were made as to enable the Engineers to make a full and exhaustive report in regard to the cost and efficacy of a dam. The work was well and carefully done; elaborate reports were made to the State Engineer; and these reports, rocking with valuable information, now lie in his office at Sacramento. The Anaheim Water Company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company—two corporations which furnish irrigating water to twelve thousand acres of land, and which make it possible for five thousand people to live luxuriously and happily in a section of country which would not support a thousand people were it not for the life giving waters which course through their ditches—these corporations, desirous of developing a greater water supply, have determined to investigate the efficiency of a submerged dam. Their request, forwarded to the State Engineer, for a copy of the report of the borings and survey of Bed Rock Crossing, has been met with a refusal, on the ground that the report is addressed to the Legislature and to that HERE AND THERE. There are few, even of the most inveterate growlers living among us, who do not concede that in the matter of climate, this portion of Southern California is especially blessed. When we contrast the present climatic conditions in Anaheim with that in other parts of our country, the comparison is apt to make us even more thankful than ordinary that our lines are cast in such a pleasant place. For instance on Monday, when the highest point reached by the thermometer in Anaheim was but 87°, and when the sun's heat was tempered with a refreshing gentle breeze from the Pacific, a severe hail storm was sweeping through parts of Kansas, whirlwinds were destroying wheat stacks and cyclones were prostrating exposed and frail buildings. On another day in this month when in Anaheim the weather was cool and pleasant, the thermometer in New York indicated 94 degrees, and the heat was of that humid, oppressive character which is never experienced here, and which superinduces sickness, prostration and death. On the day indicated there were in New York one hundred and seventy-nine deaths, the majority of them being from the excessive heat, while the number of cases of sunstroke reported are fully as numerous. A city paper thus describes the situation: Thus far the average for the month for New York has been higher than before in five years. The effect of the prolonged heat begins to show itself. People have a tired and worn out look as they languidly saunter along on the shaded sides of the streets carrying umbrellas and fans. In the tenement districts the suffering and the mortality from the heat are greatest. Workmen along the peers, truckmen, men at work on new buildings, and draught horses were the greatest sufferers, but perhaps the crowds of men who stood at the bars and looked down into glasses of mint julep were the loudest complainers. Details of the County Assessment. Los Angeles Herald. Some time ago we gave the grand total of the assessment roll of Los Angeles county, which showed a most gratifying advance on that of the previous year. Below we give WESTMINSTER. Now that our fruit crops we are led to note the quality of the fruits there here. Citrus fruits are and probably never will seem to do the best. But other fruits then we do for anybody. Apples more than they ought to not been planted to any few have been set out kinds of soil of which we a variety, and wherever growing they are full of What plums we have very few trees have been Peaches are full, no curry year, and we have all earliest to the latest. As a few trees have been cations all through the ever you find trees you and there an apricot, but more than they can bear mand for them at good timing says he received $50 from one tree and his yet. And last to be me may by any means, are those raisins or canning. This is bound to grow and be tastes show that only one sins used in the United States in this country, and tests have shown that raisins foreign production can be in abundance, and the increased or adulterated wine while there is strong reason for reports of the Genovese not differing in quantity, nor chemical reaction from duct of grape, was fact that abundance of made in New York cellars count some time since of name of a wine man in using eighty barrels tify" his wine, that the ers will find in the co that they are entirely ad to twelve thousand acres of land, and which make it possible for fifty thousand people to live luxuriously and happily in a section of country which would not support a thousand people were it not for the life giving waters which course through their ditches—these corporations, desirous of developing a greater water supply, have determined to investigate the efficiency of a submerged dam. Their request, forwarded to the State Engineer, for a copy of the report of the borough and survey of Bet Rock Crossing, has been met with a refusal, on the ground that the report is addressed to the Legislature and to that august body must it first be submitted. Application for information has been made to the engineers under whose supervision the work was done, but their lips are sealed. As the matter now stands, the work of the Department at Bed Rock Canyon, from which so much was hoped and expected, might as well never have been done. The information is wanted more; it is wanted, not by two soulless corporations, but by the representatives of five thousand people; it is wanted by the stockholders of two corporations who seriously contemplate undertaking a work which of right the State ought to undertake. If the submerged dam brings to the surface the volume of water which it is expected it will, not only will the land owners of this part of the county be enriched but the State will derive increased revenue from the enhanced value of property. This request for the data on file at the State capital should, from every point of view, be granted. We are loth to believe that the State Engineer will refuse access to the report, when he thoroughly understands how imperative the case is. In London has been founded a national society for the suppression of juvenile smoking. One of the leaders in the movement is the eminent teetotaler, Dr. Benjamin Ward Richardson. Letters in approval of the society's aims were read from the Earl of Aberdeen, Mr. Samuel Morley and others. Dr. Richardson said the use of tobacco by the young was a grave and increasing evil, and that the effects of it on them were destructive both to mind and body. He was convinced that the need of the society was large and real. The above is clipped from an exchange. The evil of tobacco using is far greater in this country than in England, and the need of a society for its suppression here is corresponditely great. The excessive use of tobacco is attended with almost as much physical deterioration as follows: the use of alcohol, and temperance people would be more consistent if they made a common crusade against the twin evils. The spectacle of a temperance orator laying aside his quid before he begins his speech, or a temperance editor writing phillipies against run while his breath reeks with the odors of a filthy pipe, are sights to make angels weep. A reporter of the New York World interviewed several of the 1,000 Mormon immigrants who recently arrived in that city from Europe, en route for Utah. One of them gave the following reason why he took Details of the County Assessment. Los Angeles Herald Some time ago we gave the grand total of the assessment roll of Los Angeles county, which showed a most gratifying advance on that of the previous year. Below we give the roll by school districts, with the exception of Los Angeles city and Anaheim, and we give besides, the railway assessment by school districts. The reader who cares to make the comparison will see that in one school district the property outside of the railway assessment amounts to only a trifle over $9000, while the railway property foots up considerably over $100,000—the ratio for a school teacher being $33,000. It will thus be seen that in scantily populated and poor districts the railway assessment, coming in aid of the poverty of the people, is a blessing—always on the understanding that the railway pays its taxes. The following is the assessed valuation of the school districts of Los Angeles county for 1882, including the railway valuations: Alameda $198,196 Ocean View $45,869 Artesia $148,075 Olive $65,538 Alamond $148,075 Orange $250,344 Aransas $150,274 Orange Horse $164,491 Badena $217,568 Follomarca $194,162 Bay View $255,054 Pensilva $160,372 Regalte $32,912 Regalte $157,307 Bolles $49,150 Providence $97,828 Catalina $149,749 Bancroft $96,490 California $160,352 Rosalind $194,261 Corinth $264,430 Rowland $388,434 Cinerosa $178,598 San Antonio $326,758 Delhi $62,352 San Dimas $37,293 Diamond $34,049 San Permino $354,921 Downey $198,566 San Gabriel $596,890 Davante $112,566 San Jose $173,177 Elizabeth Lake $202,161 San Juan $354,214 Eri Moine $175,780 Old San Pedro $154,153 Fairview $116,560 San Pedro $285,430 Florence $200,564 Santa Ana $170,937 Fountain Valley $198,564 Santa Monica $258,061 Garden Grove $119,460 Savannah $217,161 Green Meadows $98,297 Santa Anita $290,219 La Dow $252,345 Santa Pasqual $397,570 Laguna $2845 Santa Susana $221,887 La Puente $58,780 Sapanggo $55,361 Little Lake $88,793 Sepulveda $255,551 Los Nixes $179,396 Soladel $244,284 Largo $82,983 Sulphur Springs $112,663 Maizland $86,446 Sycamore $358,370 Mountain View $85,896 Trabuco $8, Newhall $250,580 Wilmington $427,987 New Hope $53,543 Westminster $283,659 Newport $164,790 Vernon $291,566 New River $98,370 Vermillion $36，761 Norwalk $190，500 Verona $52，573 Ocean $244，702 Below we give the railway assessments for the School districts which will enable our readers to make comparisons to suit themselves: Salekal $700，452 Sepulveda $60，375 San Fernando 131，290 Vernon 18，900 Los Angeles 18，900 Florence 9，400 San Gabriel 28，850 San Pedro 10，900 El Moine 29，890 San Pedro 56，480 San Jose 50，490 Wilmington 9，630 Elizabeth Lake 111，190 Savannah 77，710 Sailbur Springs 108，300 Healand 120，750 Newhall 198，325 Palmaroas 72，850 Providence 63，325 Od San Pedro 14，670 [The reason why Anaheim and Los Angeles are omitted from the above tables is because they are the only two towns in the county which are of sufficient importance to have municipal governments.

One of them gave the following reason why he took A reporter of the New York World interviewed several of the 1,000 Mormon immigrants who recently arrived in that city from Europe, en route for Utah. One of them gave the following reason why he took the Mormon view of the lawfulness of polygamy: "The scriptures is in favor of this thing of having more wives as one. Revelations tell us how in the last days seven women shall take hold of one man. Abraham had a lot of wives and so did David. Now, David might a' went wrong, but the scriptures say as how a man's faults is forgive. That's the reason we think we've got the law of God on our side." This beautiful poetic bit of wisdom may be studied with profit by the grand army of prospective candidates: "I du believe in bein' this Or that, ez it may happen One way or t'other handiest is To ketch the people nappin'; It ain't by princepies nor men My preudent course is studied— I scent which pays the best, au' then Go into it baldheaded." Weather item from the Searcy (Arkansas) Record of June 17: "Last Monday, about 1 o'clock p. m., while the thermometer stood at 100°, a snow-shower fell in Searcy from a cloudless sky." The alleged phenomenon was of course witnessed by a sufficient number of the oldest and most trustworthy residents, one of whom estimates that enough snow fell to have covered the ground if it had not melted. It has been discovered that the Japanese Indemnity Bill, as passed by the Senate, directs President Arthur to pay Japan seven hundred and eighty-five thousand dollars out of his own pocket. He is indebted for this privilege to a laborious process of amendment by striking out and writing in word and lines. [The reason why Anaheim and Los Angeles are omitted from the above tables is because they are the only two towns in the county which are of sufficient importance to have municipal governments. We can supply the omission, however, in regard to Anaheim. The total value of property in Anaheim School District is $402,372. The Los Angeles and San Diego Railroad Company have property in the district valued at $15,550. These figures are taken from the School District Assessor's books, but it should be borne in mind that he did not place as high a valuation on real estate and improvements as the County Assessor did.] ED. GAZETTE.] The Coroner of San Francisco has filed his report giving the mortuary statistics of the city for the fiscal year ending June 30th. The table is interesting, as showing the causes of death in a big city. We append it: Blow on the head or body, 11; burning, 5; crushed, 7; drowning, 48; exposure and neglect, 2; fall, 38; gunshot wounds, 45; gored by a cow, 1; hanging, 6; poison, 35; run over, 18; stabbing or cutting, 11; strangulation, 1; suffocation, 6; scalding, 4; unknown, 3; found in the bay or ocean, 3; human remains, 2; natural causes, 147; still born, 13. Total, 406. Of homicides during the year there were 30, divided as follows: Murder, 17; man-slaughter, 9; justifiable homicide, 4. The suicides numbered 72. "A PATERNAL GOVERNMENT," as the effete monarchies of Europe are called, are very ridiculous things to be sure, but under a paternal government it would not have devolved upon private individuals to undertake a work of such vast public benefit as the submerged dam in the Santa Ana river will be. It would have been built a dozen years ago with funds drawn from the national treasury. Sunday Schools were disbanded meetings of the convention joyable and profitable to try as to be present. No question affect the society and prosperity country than those which they undertake to settle, so connection with the immediate warding Sunday School have the support of all who and youth of our county Sunday School worker or ent at its meetings may be the association and may takeceedings.

CINCINNATI, July 17. six deaths from lockjaw ington within the past six time are all boys who were hand by toy pistols on the In most cases the wound trifling. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Now that our fruit crop is again ripening we are led to note the wonderful variety and quality of the fruits that we can raise down here. Citrus fruits are nothing to boast of, and probably never will be, although lemons seem to do the best. But when we come to other fruits then we don't take a back seat for anybody. Apples everywhere are loaded more than they ought to carry. Pears have not been planted to any great extent, but a few have been set out in all the different kinds of soil of which Westminster has such a variety, and wherever there are any trees growing they are full of pears and look well. What plums we have seen look well, but very few trees have been set out as yet. Peaches are full, no curl leaf to speak of this year, and we have all varieties, from the earliest to the latest. And then the apricots; a few trees have been set out in different locations all through the settlement and wherever you find trees you find fruit, not here and there an apricot, but trees loaded down more than they can bear up, and a ready demand for them at good prices. Mr. Fleming says he received $6.25 for the apricots from one tree and his trees are quite young yet. And last to be mentioned but not least by any means, are the Muscat grapes for raisins or canning. This is an interest that is bound to grow and be permanent. Statistics show that only one per cent. of the raisins used in the United States are grown in this country, and tests and experiments have shown that raisins as good as the best foreign production can be made in California in abundance, and the supply cannot be increased or adulterated with Eastern glucose; while there is strong reason to believe from the reports of the Genava Council that wine not differing in quality, apparent to the taste or chemical reaction from the genuine product of the grape, was being made; from the fact that abundance of California wine is made in New York cellars, and from an account some time since of the posting of the name of a wine man in Napa for importing and using eighty barrels of glucose to "fortify" his wine, that the "wine" grape growers will find in the course of a few years that they are entirely at the mercy of the PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Fruit peddler's license in San Jose is $50 per month. This is a prohibitive rate. The Reno Journal says there are 2800 goats within six miles of that town. They are assessed at $1 25 per head. An eight-year-old daughter of David Muscio at Tomales was burned to death the other day by her clothes catching fire from some burning grease in the stove oven. Wm. A. Menchin, conductor on a freight train, was fatally hurt at Caliente, on Monday. The cars backed upon him and drove a coupling pin through his body. The Apaches are again on the war path. A number of them have left the San Carlos reservation and have committed a number of murders and outrages on isolated settlers or travelers. In a fight with the troops sent in pursuit, a number of Indians were killed, but the savages managed to escape capture. The steamship Serapie, which sailed from San Francisco on Thursday for Hong Kong, carried away about 600 passengers. These passengers are nearly all old, diseased and worn out paupers and beggars, gathered from the slums, hospitals and poor houses, who are being shipped back to China to die. All the expenses have been defrayed by the merchants belonging to the Six Companies. The San Francisco postmaster has received the blanks to be used by him in informing letter writers or addressees that matter dropped in the mail has been insufficiently stamped. The effect of the new regulation is to make local postoffices perform part of the labor heretofore devolving on the deadletter office. Formerly an insufficiently stamped letter was sent direct to the deadletter office; now a card is sent to the addressee, informing him that a letter to him is held for postage, or, if the name of the sender appears in print or otherwise on the envelope, a card is mailed to him, and on receipt of the postage the letter is sent to its destination. On this coast the regulation will save three weeks in the delivery of improperly stamped letters, and no one, unless he handles them, can imagine how Insect Pests. And still they come! The latest enemy of the fruit-grower is a small larva (caterpillar) that has appeared in the peaches this season, and from present appearances, if not prevented from spreading, will have the same effect on the peach and apricot crop that the codling moth has had on the apple and pear crop. Last week in San Francisco three baskets of peaches from one orchard were examined. The first examined had eleven peaches that were infested by this new (to California) peach worm; the second had twenty-six peaches infested, and the third nine. This little pest has been found in peaches from three counties. It also attacks the apricota. Specimens taken from apricots are the same as those infesting the peaches, although different from the small caterpillar that attacked the apricot early in the spring. Peaches containing this pest are plentiful in the markets at the present time, and can be easily detected.—Sacramento Record Union. LOS ANGELES MARKETS. Corrected weekly for the Gazette by E.

These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE, (4 different lengths) in the ease and nonsloveness of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold.
