Mr. Weid is a popular and well-known gentleman. —The Old Fellow's brick building on Los Angeles county which are not dignified by the pomp and circumstance of a town organization, and whose citizens are not taxed in a number of ways for the maintenance thereof, are far better cared for apparently than this town, the question presents itself whether we are not paying altogether too dearly for the honor. The objects for which we pay property tax, road tax, and license tax, and dog tax are the better protection of property, the more rigid enforcement of laws beneficial to the community, the supervision and care of highways and streets by officials paid for looking after these things, and for other objects, utopian and practical. But though these somewhat onerous taxes are paid year after year, do we receive commensurate benefits? Saving and excepting the admirable domestic water system, by which property is made more secure and the health of the consumers benefited, all these years of town organization has been of no practical benefit, and not a single thing has been done for the public good that could not have been done without a town government. We look at other surrounding communities and see that without that expensive appendage their streets are in as good condition, and far cleaner, than those of Anaheim, and there is every outward evidence that they enjoy as much immunity from evil-doers as do the residents of this municipality. It follows, therefore, that if this town organization is of no benefit, if it does not advance the interests of the place, it should be got rid of, together with the expense it entails. Personally, we do not desire this inglorious dissolution. We believe that if the reforms and the improvements which it is possible for the town authorities to inaugurate and carry out were decided upon and enforced, the people would get value received for their money, and that the growing sentiment against incorporation would dissipate. Nay, we go further and say that a majority of the taxpayers would favor an increased tax rate if the money was expended in such a way as to improve the town and enhance the comfort of its people. The duties and powers of the Board of Trustees are well defined in the Town Charter. They have the power to pass all needed ordinances, and it must be said that they have exercised their power. But there they stop. It is not too much to say that not a single ordinance has been enforced during Miss A. S.

It is understood that Ivar A. Weid will be the Republican nominee for County Clerk. Mr. Weid is a popular and well-known gentleman. The Old Fellow's brick building on Los Angeles street was purchased at Sheriff's sale on Monday by F. A. Korn and J. P. Zeyn for $3,554. During a business trip to Wilmington on Wednesday, S. B. Smith sold three California Windmills and two tanks. These mills are now recognized as the best in the market. If the Republicans will tender Col. W. E. Morford the nomination for Sheriff he will accept it. The politician who is too dainty to "go for" an office he desires, very seldom gets there. Elections for School Trustees in the various districts of the county will be held on the first Saturday in June. The Trustee whose term of office expires in this district is W. M. Bailey. A vacancy in the Republican County Central Committee having been created by the resignation of J. E. Stackpole, it was filled on Saturday by the appointment of Theodore Reiser. A lively interest is awakened in oil circles caused by the developments at the wells near Anaheim. During the week several prominent oil operators have visited the Chandler and the Snow wells. As an instance of the peculiarity of Anaheim soil, Mr. Crowther's field may be cited. Two fair crops of hay have already been cut from it this year, and there is now growing on it a magnificent stand of wheat. The field was irrigated before the rains. The wheat and barley fields on the Las Bolsas and Los Alamitas Ranchos present an unusual appearance. Capt. Healey, engaged in surveying in that vicinity, reports the grain strong, heading out well and standing five feet high. John A. Boyd, arrested for disturbing the peace at Westminster, on complaint of Geo. Woodington, was brought before Judge Bailey on Monday. John plead guilty and was fined the costs, amounting to seven dollars. Water is now being sold and furnished to stockholders in the Anaheim Union Water Company at the rate of 25 cents per hour for 100 inches during the day and half that rate at night—a day being construed to begin at 4 A.M. and close at 8 P.M. Fifty-one hundred or two hundred inches of water are sold at the option of the purchaser, who is required to state at the time of purchase what amount of water he desires. The Directors, at their meeting on Saturday, in response to the proposition of the Farmers Ditch Company of Orangethorpe, tendered that company 102 shares of stock for their ditches, water rights, rights of way and all other property belonging to them. Superintendent Bailey tendered his resignation, to take effect as soon as his successor was appointed for their money, and that the growing sentiment against incorporation would dissipate. Nay, we go further and say that a majority of the taxpayers would favor an increased tax rate if the money was expended in such a way as to improve the town and enhance the comfort of its people. The duties and powers of the Board of Trustees are well defined in the Town Charter. They have the power to pass all needed ordinances, and it must be said that they have exercised their power. But there they stop. It is not too much to say that not a single ordinance has been enforced during the past twelve months. Cattle are driven through the streets, all manner of refuse and filth is dumped upon the highways, indecency dislants itself unchecked, animals are staked upon the public roads to the danger of travelers—and, to cut short an unpleasant story, we cannot find in the printed ordinances one of any importance that has been enforced. If the present Board does not intend to enforce the laws, they ought to repeal them, and then the town government will be a trifle less farcical. Let them repeal the ordinance levying a Road Poll Tax; because its payment is not enforced; repeal the ordinance levying a dog tax; the health ordinance; the ordinance describing offenses and prescribing penalties; the ordinance concerning nuisances; the ordinance concerning houses of ill-fame; the ordinance for regulating the conduct of minors and any and all other ordinances. Each and every one of them being a dead letter, they ought to be wiped out. And if we may be permitted to suggest how the taxes which will be collected this year should be extended, we would advise that the construction of sidewalks should consume nine-tenths of it. It is interesting to note, by the way, that the construction of sidewalks has occupied the attention of every Board since the town has been a town. The subject has been taken up with vigor every year, discussed with gradually decreasing warmth for three or four meetings and then is suffered to collapse. Let us hope that the present Board will deal more decisively with the matter. Messrs. B. Drum and San Francisco Groezinger, of Youngtons of dry wine cows is to be shipped in the State and united similar wine brandy is very light wine is in excess of The rainfall on day by Mr. E.

Woodington, was brought before Judge Bailey on Monday. John plead guilty and was fined the costs, amounting to seven dollars. The postmaster desires to answer through these columns a question often asked regarding the closing of the mail. Any letters dropped in the outer box during the night for points north are forwarded in the mail which leaves Anaheim at 6:30 A.M. The usually arid climate of Lower California has in common with the whole coast received a drenching by the season's rains. Adolph Rimpan, who has been spending several weeks in that country, returned on Monday, and reports a most luxuriant vegetation on the desert lands of former years. One of the largest sales of real estate this season was consummated this week by John Hanna to a San Francisco syndicate of which L. A. Kelly is at the head. The land comprises 618 acres known as the Dicken ranche. It is well adapted to vines and all varieties of fruit, has two artesian wells and was sold for $60 per acre. Hudson & Co. report the following sales: 20 acres of Samuel Hill to J. W. White of Mo., for $2,500. Lots Nos. 6 and 3 in Block D, on the Kreamer tract to J. Yeager for $2,500. 16½ acres of land at Orange, on the Toberman tract, to Mr. G. M. Beach for $18,000. The Directors, at their meeting on Saturday, in response to the proposition of the Farmers Ditch Company of Orangethorpe, tendered that company 102½ shares of stock for their ditches, water rights, rights of way and all other property belonging to them. Superintendent Bailey tendered his resignation, to take effect as soon as his successor was appointed. The Directors met on Monday and received the report of Mr. Tuffree. It was to the effect that after consultation with moneyed men in San Francisco he could assert that the bonds of the company when placed upon the market would be readily purchased, probably at a premium, and he also presented some information regarding the issuance of bonds which he had received from a responsible bond broker of the city. The President and Secretary were appointed to go to Los Angeles and arrange with the company's attorney for the preparation of the bonds. The engineer was instructed to divide the company's ditches into sections; and it was ordered that bids be advertised for to clean the ditches in accordance with the engineer's specifications. The engineer's salary was fixed at $125 per month during the time he is continuously at work. The San Francisco Chronicle of Wednesday last is a remarkable specimen of modern journalism. Besides a full and exhaustive history and description of the aims and objects of Odd Fellowship, it prints a complete list of all the lodges in the State with the names of members. The issue is valuable to the Brotherhood. Parties desiring pasture for stock are directed to our advertising column. Personal. Miss A. S. Garfias of the City of Mexico is visiting her relatives, the Rimpans. Plez James is the possessor of a beautiful Hambletonian, purchased of N. H. Mitchell who brought the same from San Francisco.

Run into Lieb's and get a glass of beer. tf The sale of liquor in entertainment halls in Chicago is, under the Harper law, prohibited, except upon the payment of the general license. 1,000 men wanted to drink beer at Fritz's.

The Langrishe Company played to full houses on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights, furnishing their audiences with an entertainment that was thoroughly enjoyed. It is not often that an opportunity is offered in Anaheim to listen to plays so well rendered as by this company. We can commend the merits of the players by recording the verdict that the acting was highly appreciated and enjoyed. An evening's continuous hearty laughter places one in a very pleasant mood, and that is what the Langrishe Company leaves in Anaheim. Inasmuch as the communication of "Sufferer" deals with a subject referred to editorially, and as his treatment of the subject is peculiarly rasping—and truthful—we deem it best not to publish it. We agree with him that it should require no town ordinance to prevent "the streets filled with" rubbish, and the town's immediate surroundings ornamented with clumps of weeds blocking the highway and supplemented by old tin cans, ancient boots and "cast-off clothing generally." The wife of George Reed, living eight miles west of this city, on last Sunday gave birth to three girl children. Two of the little ones weighed five and a half pounds each, and the other six and a half pounds. A lady attendant was careful in the weighing. The babies are healthy and doing remarkably well, as also is the mother. Who says that California hasn't a "glorious climate?" — Times. Messrs. B. Dreyfus & Co. of Anaheim and San Francisco have purchased of G. Groesinger, of Yountville, Cal., 140,000 gallons of dry wine on private terms. This wine is to be shipped East. Orders are now in the State and unfilled for 500,000 gallons of similar wine. The demand for new brandy is very light, while that for mature wine is in excess of the supply. The rainfall on Wednesday and Thursday by Mr. E. S. Saxton's gauge was one and five-sixteenth inches; total for the season, 26 7-16 inches. By Mr. Langenberger's gauge only forty-eight hundredths was recorded, making the total for the season Adolph Rimpau is profuse in his expressions of pleasure to be again in Anaheim after his experiences in Mexico.

The rain of Wednesday afternoon and night has given a pleasant freshness to vegetation. Vineyards are in splendid condition and promise unusually large crops. A careful estimate of the relative cost of coal and wood shows the Wellington coal to be the cheapest. It will burn in any ordinary cook stove, giving a steady heat, and is much more convenient to use than wood. Gade will deliver Wellington coal in quantities to suit. Advertised Letters.

For over twenty years he has worked steadily at his trade, gathering experience all the time, and it is now generally conceded that he is a master of his trade. His work not only looks well, but what is fully as important, it wears well—a result accomplished by the liberal use of the very best materials. Mr. Boege is cordially recommended to the consideration of all desiring the best painting at the most reasonable prices. Look at the new style of vineyard plows, the best ever made, at White's.
