WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...JULY 29, 1862 LOS ANGELES COUNTY. The Various Industrial Eras of the Past Twenty Years Some Interesting Reminiscences The Situation To-day. Los Angeles county has undergone many industrial transitions in the past twenty years. In the early days, the chief business which occupied the attention of the residents of this county was cattle and horse raising. According to the notion then prevalent, that was all the county was fit for. When the colony of Anaheim was in its infancy, the chief enemies of the pioneers were the horses and cattle which swarmed upon the plains. During the summer months, when feed was scant on the prairie, the green oasis of Anaheim was a tempting bait for the half-starved stock, and it was only by patrolling the colony night and day that the vineyards and grain fields were preserved from the assaults of the hungry cattle. This state of affairs continued with but slight relief until the drought of 1864 and the passage of no-fence law—almost simultaneous incidents—gave the settlers relief. The cattle which survived that, trying year were thereafter watched by a herder, instead of being allowed to graze at their own sweet will. The cattle and horse era then passed away, and the sheep era began. Sheep raising was all the county was fit for, so it was said. The industry was largely pursued with varying success until about 1872 or 73 when it began to decline. From about 1870, settlers began to come into the county, and as every tract of land which they purchased and settled upon contracted the sheep range in some degree, it soon became evident that the sheep era was at an end and the farming era had begun. The first few years of the farming era were not of marked success. Scant rainfall and unfamiliarity with the caprices of California soil resulted in short crops, and there was but a small and easily-glutted market for the grain that was raised. And as every immigrant seemed imbued with an uncontrollable desire to buy as much land as years to understand the country and there is yet much to learn before man becomes thorough master of the situation. But it may be taken for granted that the man who comes and settles here, with money enough to keep him for a year or two, besides paying for his farm and his house, and who makes a failure of it, would be unsuccessful in any part of the world. It is only the truly great who can afford to indulge in such eccentricities as the following, related of Garibaldi: Disappointed in his hopes of accomplishing great things for liberty in South America, saddened by the death and imprisonment of his companions, and weary with his personal sufferings, Garibaldi was standing one day on the deck of his ship, when, among the women who came to the shore for water, one suddenly attracted his notice. "I gave orders," says he, "to be put on shore, and I approached the house pointed out to me as her dwelling, with a beating heart, but with that determined will which never fails to command success." A man" (her husband) "invited me to enter. I should have done so without his invitation. I had seen him previously. And to the young woman I said: 'Thou must be mine by a bond which only death can dissolve.' I had found a treasure, forbidden, indeed, but of what value! If there was blame it was wholly mine. And blame there was! Two souls were indissolubly bound together, and the heart of an innocent man was broken. But she is dead. He is avenged—avenged indeed! And I acknowledged my sin on that day when, striving still to detain her with me, I felt her failing pulse, and sought to catch her feeble breathing; but I pressed the hand and kissed the lips of the dead, and wept the tears of despair." The British Surgical Journal says a castor oil plant in a room will kill all the flies that venture within the apartment. But the castor oil plant is a dangerous one to have about where the product of its growth may be eaten by those unaware of its powerful qualities. The Journal might have added that the plant will drive gophers and moles from any garden where it grows. The above paragraph has been published by half a dozen or more of our exchanges, WESTMINSTER The hunting park Elizabeth Lake.

Mr. and Mrs. H From about 1870, settlers began to come into the county, and as every tract of land which they purchased and settled upon contracted the sheep range in some degree, it soon became evident that the sheep era was at an end and the farming era had begun. The first few years of the farming era were not of marked success. Scanty rainfall and unfamiliarity with the caprices of California soil resulted in short crops, and there was but a small and easily glutted market for the grain that was raised. And as every immigrant seemed imbued with an uncontrollable desire to buy as much land as he could, the results were, through no fault of the country, exceedingly discouraging. And so it came about that farming languished, and the fruit era followed. In the orange belt, citrus trees were planted in unlimited numbers; and in localities too cold or otherwise unsited for the semi-tropical fruits, apple, pear, peach and other northern fruit trees were planted unintentionally. Grape vines were entirely ignored; nay, even old vineyards were uprooted to make room for trees. The wine industry was then at a low ebb, and the raisin industry had not at that time entered into anyone's thoughts. Everybody said that fruit growing was just what Los Angeles county was fit for, and everybody acted accordingly. Nurserymen got rich and trees were not to be had for love or money. But after the trees were in the ground and growing, it became a very serious question with some people how to live until the orchards began to bring in a revenue. Thus was forced on another era—the era of dairying and poultry-raising. Old Californians relate with great gusto how, under the Mexican regime, the owner of ten thousands cattle never saw a pound of butter or a pint of milk on his table during the year. About the same condition of affairs existed at the period of which we write, with the difference that there were neither cattle nor butter. But soon a cow or two could be seen on every farm, and the cackle of hens resounded throughout the land. And many an interesting story could be told of how families "scrabbled" along on the sale of butter and eggs, until their fruit trees began to bear and relieve the financial pressure. Just about this time, too, the railroad had penetrated arid Arizona and that Territory began to make demands upon this county for its produce, thus stimulating the dairy industry. Then came the vine-planting era, under the stimulus of high prices for wines and raisins. This brings us to the present time. What is the industrial situation of the county now? Orchard planting has almost ceased, but the planting of vines, both wine and raisin varieties, is unabated. Large areas of orchard are just beginning to bear, and there is a crying need for canneries throughout the county. The demand for pure California wine is steadily on the increase, and the vineyards of Anaheim yield fabulously. Now that growers have mastered the difficulties of curing and packing, the raisin industry is one of the most profitable, and is her feeble breathing; but I pressed the hand and kissed the lips of the dead, and wept the tears of despair." The British Surgical Journal says a castor oil plant in a room will kill all the flies that venture within the apartment. But the castor oil plant is a dangerous one to have about where the product of its growth may be eaten by those unaware of its powerful qualities. The Journal might have added that the plant will drive gophers and moles from any garden where it grows. The above paragraph has been published by half a dozen or more of our exchanges, and we deem it a solemn duty to nip the lie in the bud. Flies thrive and grow fat on the castor oil plant, and there is, within a stone's throw of the GAZETTE sanctum, a large castor oil shrub under the friendly shade of which a colony of gophers live and plly their vocation. And as for the danger to those who eat the castor-oil bean, it may be said that anybody who is fool enough to masticate the beans deserves all the internal disturbances which will result. Kalloch, in his usual Sunday evening prelude at his Temple in San Francisco, gave emphasis to his oft-repeated declaration that the Chinese treaty is a delusion and snare, in so far as it will stop the immigration of the undesirable treaty. He said: "A little while ago San Francisco was in one of her 'spells.' Everybody was up in arms on this matter. But now, how quiet! Is the situation any less alarming? Those who lean upon the Treaty lean on a broken reed. The man who tells you that the Treaty settles the Chinese question is either a deceiver or a fool. The heavy-jawed, flair-faced, full bellied, diamond-brooked politician would like to have you believe it is out of politics. We will show him the contrary. There is no other question of our politics of a thousandth part its importance. We will see that it is not ignored, or obscured, or betrayed." Statistical. From the report of W. W. Bowers, Collector of Customs, we gather the following statistics in regard to the business transacted at the port of Wilmington for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882: Number of vessels entered from foreign ports, 43; No. vessels cleared for foreign ports, 20; No. vessels entered from domestic ports, 11; No. vessels cleared for domestic ports, 26. Entries of merchandise for duty, 64; entries for warehouse and transportation, 10; entries for consumption liquidated, 64. Certificates of enrollment granted, 2; licenses for coasting trade granted, 11; licenses to vessels under 20 tons granted, 2. Value of exports—Domestic, $356,237. Receipts from duties on imports, $46,383.23; from all other sources, $13,599.61. Total receipts, $59,982.84. Amount of refunds and drawbacks paid, $124.86. Net total receipts, $59,857.98. Expenses of collection, $5,073.65. Total cost of collection at port of Wilmington, a little less than 8.5 per cent. Persons employed during the year in collecting the revenue—1 Deputy Collector, 16 What is the industrial situation of the county now? Orchard planting has almost ceased, but the planting of vines, both wine and raisin varieties, is unabated. Large areas of orchard are just beginning to bear, and there is a crying need for canneries throughout the county. The demand for pure California wine is steadily on the increase, and the vineyards of Anaheim yield fabulously. Now that growers have mastered the difficulties of curing and packing, the raisin industry is one of the most profitable, and is likely to continue so. The industry, however, which from this time forward will be pushed with the greatest zeal, is the manufacture of butter and cheese. Witness the establishment of the creameries throughout the county and the gradual extension of the pasture fence. Some people even go so far as to say that fruit raising is a mistake and that dairying is what Los Angeles county is pre-eminently fit for! The demand for the cheese and butter made in this county far exceeds the supply. Cheese-makers complain that they are compelled to sell their cheese while yet too young, and commission merchants are in despair over the scarcity of butter. Those of our people, too, who came from "back East" but a few years ago have not forgotten that in wealth, comfort and general contentment the counties in the States where dairying was the general industry were immeasurably superior to all other sections. Dairying has always proven profitable under two conditions—1st, a country with abundance of good pasturage; 2nd, a market for the products. Both these conditions exist in Los Angeles county in an eminent degree, and it is beyond question that the people are alive to the situation and are preparing to take advantage of it. Los Angeles county is to-day the imperial county of the State, the gem in the galaxy of counties which collectively make the great State of California. In varied industries, accomplished facts and future possibilities it stands without a peer on the Pacific Coast. A perusal of this article will show that it has not attained its high place without severe and arduous struggles with adverse circumstances. It took twenty entries for warehouse and transportation, 10 entries for consumption liquidated, 64.

Mr. John Lowe and Mr. George Irvine had a very narrow escape from drowning, at the Laguna on Tuesday, while engaged in fishing upon the beach. They supposed the tide was going out, and it really was, but several great waves came in and with a strong undertow swept them from their feet and took them out, but fortunately a succeeding wave coming in threw them upon the rocks. Mr. Lowe is sadly bruised, and thinks he has had enough of Laguna. They had no way of escape from the approach of the returning waves, and their escape from drowning is almost miraculous.—Santa Ana Herald. We congratulate our friends on their fortunate escape. The undertow at Laguna is remorseless in its strength, and the wonder is that accidents do not more frequently happen. The following are the exports from Anaheim Depot for the week ending July 22d.

The Congressional Conference Committee's report on the River and Harbor bill changes the appropriation bill for Wilmington harbor from $125,000 to $100,000. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. The hunting party have returned from Elizabeth Lake. They did not bring any bear meat with them. They did not have any way of curing the meat and did not want to kill the large bears and leave them to spoil—so they say. Another reason given is that it was the closed season and they were afraid of the law. They did bring some dried venison, which proved that they had hunting. Taylor & McCoy are repairing and enlarging their fruit drier and will be prepared to dry all kinds of fruit on shares. Muscat grapes a specialty. A fire proof foundation will prevent any danger from fire. Henry S. Pankey has bought fifty acres in sec. 13 north of Brush, for dairy and stock. James R. Swayze has bought 30 acres in sec. 36, west of J. W. Silkwood. Our apricots are taking a high rank. They are reported from Pasadena as higher colored, from Colton as larger and finer than the Riverside apricot, from Los Angeles as better than usually seen in their market, and from Anaheim as superior. Mr. S. Edwards has sold over 500 pounds from one tree. It will not be long before Westminster will regain its reputation. We confess to the alkali, but have something to offset it. It is the healthiest place in Southern California. It raises the best of apples, pears and apricots and the largest grapes. It has the best of pastures and stock lands. These are hard buts to butt against. The "Boys" returned from San Diego county last Friday, bringing 16 broncos. This makes about fifty horses that have been brought up to Westminster this year, and another party are going down soon for more. Robt. Bothwick has moved his well tools to Pomona. Parties there intend to develop a water supply in a cienega district and use the water for irrigation north-east of Pomona. Owing to the rush of business at T. C. Hull's they have been unable to find time to put in some posts under the store porch; but a mechanic was engaged this week and now two redwood pillars occupy the place of the heretofore vacancies. Mr. and Mrs. Hall from the Santiago cannery. Slush. Dr. G. S. Allen, the somewhat noted preacher and temperance lecturer, was arrested in Los Angeles last week on a charge of beating his wife, the complaint being sworn to by his wife's sister. When the case was called for trial the defendant was discharged, as his wife refused to testify against him. A second complaint has been lodged against him, for the same offense, and his trial will take place next week. Mrs. Allen has furnished a letter to the press for publication, which was undoubtedly written by Allen and signed by the poor woman under threata. There is no question as to his guilt, because Mrs. Allen applied to the police for protection from her husband, and at the time of making the application her face was bruised and beaten almost beyond recognition. The letter is as follows: To the Good Wives, Mothers and Husbands of Los Angeles, Cal: A wife appeals to you, under the crushing, cruel and maliciously untrue article of a certain scurrilous sheet, of Sabbath morning, July 23d. I see my beloved husband is most wantonly attacked as wife-beater, and ex-Rev. The sum and substance of said article I know personally to be false in fact, and desperately malicious. As a happy, loving, contented wife, I cannot remain silent. I appeal to you for aid and sympathy in keeping and upholding the first man on earth with whom I have and am enjoying sweetest soul rest and with whom I long to live undisturbed till death. Dear wives, I know the inner heart of my beloved, as others cannot. To me he is in loveful tenderness, princely; in devoted solicitude, faultless; as a provider, peerless. I am satisfied and happy only with his love. Qwives, you and mothers know what this means. I cannot, I will not leave or be separated from my beloved husband, recognizing the higher law, "what God has joined together let no man put asunder." My heart well-nigh breaks at the thought. Will you defend me and mine from this cruel assault? As a public man, my dear husband is wildly misinterpreted. I have such confidence in the good people of this city, I only add that to rupture my home, and rob me of the gentle care of my choice, the centre and soul of my life, (my devotedly loved husband) will dethrone my reason, and crush the last flower of hope. I truly believe. O listen! to my first pleading, to be left alone with my dear husband. I am perfectly contented; ought not the public press and people to be?

The Board of Education of San Frahiscisco have a rule that women teachers who marry thereby forfeit their positions. The City Attorney advises the Board that it has no authority to make such a rule, as it is in contravention of the policy of the law that seeks to encourage matrimony. A portion of the Board, however still resist it would seem that so simple a question should cause no hesitation. Attorney Cowdery is right or else all intelligent ideas of the policy of good government are false. A Varied Performance. Many wonder how Parkers' Ginger Tonic can perform such varied cures thinking it GARDEN GROVE ITEMS. There will be an ice cream social at the Garden Grove Church on Tuesday evening, August 1st. This is a cheap way of advertising, but they all do it. The apricots continue to pour into market. As I write a wagon load is going by to the depot loaded with crates full of luscious fruit for the Los Angeles Cannery. A wife of one of the prominent citizens who lives in the suburbs of Anaheim was considerably astonished to learn that some apricots she saw in a wagon were raised at Garden Grove, and seemed to doubt the veracity of the statement. As the lady has lived within five miles of our orchards for several years, too, I believe it shows that she, as well as many other residents of that burg, know very little of Westminster township. The fact is, give a place a bad name and it will stick. For the past four years we have been selling apricots, peaches, apples, grapes, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries in Anaheim and Santa Ana, but many who live in those places think we can raise nothing but alfalfa hay and pumpkins. Several thousand trees will be planted here the coming winter. We have found that no finer apricots are raised in this State than are raised here; that the trees produce as much and as fine fruit, and that the cannery pays as much for our fruit as for any other. The land to raise them on can be bought for from $30 to $50 per acre, and an unlimited supply of water can be obtained at a nominal expense, and the water will belong to the owner of the property. This land will produce as surely and as abundantly as any land in the State, and the day is not far distant when it will be held as high as any at Riverside or Orange. NEMO. Thermometrical Record.

Pettingill was considered imbecile, but not dangerous. This morning, however, it was discovered that he had unbuckled Clark's wooden leg during the night and with it had beaten him to death. There seems to be no doubt it was a crazy freak, though Pettingill refuses to say a word. As an instance of "the ruling passion strong in death" a New York paper mentions the following incident of Scott, the Orange poker player, now under arrest for participation in the big poker game of which much has been said lately: Scott says very little about the affair, and the arrest was transacted as quietly as possible, in order not to excite him unnecessarily. He is scarcely more than a skeleton, and has frequent hemorrhages. He is full of pluck, as one instance will show. It was the fourth hemorrhage from which he had suffered within a few hours, and as he wiped the blood from his mouth he offered to bet the physician two to one that it would not kill him. The alleged "war" in Egypt continues. Arabi Pasha, the rebel, contents himself with skirmishing, and the chief occupation of the British troops is in preventing Alexandria from being further pillaged and burned. Michael Hannan, who went from Los Angeles to Ireland a few months ago, has been arrested as a "suspect" and lodged in a British dungeon. A person may become an American citizen, it seems, not only by naturalization and by barth, but if he is a minor, by the marriage of his mother to an American citizen.

The Bank of Anaheim, a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of California, Plaintiff v. Oland W. Squier, Defendant. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA send Greeting to Oland Westminster Township, You are hereby required to appear in an action brought against you by the above named plaintiff in the Justices' Court of Westminster Township, County of Los Angeles, State of California, and to answer before the Justice at his office in said Township, the complaint filed therein, within five days (exclusive of the day of service), after the service on you of this summons—if served within the Township in which this action is brought; or, if served out of said Township, but in said County, within ten days; otherwise within twenty days. The said action is brought to recover the sum of two hundred dollars due from defendant to plaintiff upon a certain pre-missory note set out and described in the complaint filed in this cause, to which reference is here made, with interest on said sum from the 21st day of September, A.D. 1881, at the rate of ten per cent. per annum, amounting now to the sum of $16 663$, and also for accruing interest, besides costs of suit. The said promissory note being the same note executed by the Oland W. Squier on the 21st day of September, 1881, for the sum of two hundred dollars with interest therefrom from date, at the rate of ten per cent. per annum, payable to Daniel Hortkoff, and duly assigned by the said Daniel Hortkoff to the Bank of Anaheim, a corporation duly organized and doing business as such corporation under the laws of the State of California. And you are hereby notified that if you fail to so appear and answer said complaint, as above required, said plaintiff will cause your default to be entered and take judgment against you for said sum of two hundred dollars and interest, as shownaid, to date of judgment; now amounting to $16 663*, together with costa.

THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed scores of Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy gale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known every one of the California Mills put up by the undersigned escaped injury. 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 skills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in the ease and noiselessness of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold. I will furnish these Mills with Pumps and Tanks, and set them up in complete running order at the lowest possible rates. For further particulars call upon or address S. B.
