Hard Times.
There comes to us from time to time dismal tidings of matters and things in the northern part of the State. The city of San Francisco is confessedly and inexpressibly dull. Trade is about as "blue" there as it has ever been and there is none of the buoyant and hopeful feeling which presages a near-revival of business. This is a matter of common notoriety; so much so, indeed, that it has reached the point that the newspapers of the city are openly discussing it and are, figuratively speaking, whistling to keep their courage up. From the interior the same discouraging reports come. We have already noted in these columns the depressed condition of affairs in the San Joaquin valley, and the same unhappy business stagnation is true of nearly all the northern counties. It is peculiarly unfortunate that this should be the state of affairs at this time of year, because the early days of winter are dull even in times of prosperity. It is greatly to be feared that the year 1886 will be far advanced before much improvement will be noticeable.
As compared with the condition of affairs in the north, the people of the southern counties have reason to congratulate themselves. There is no such depression in trade here; the producers have fared far better, and though they, too, have been disappointed to some extent at the decreased prices they obtained for their produce, there are few who have not done fairly well the past year, "all things considerin'."
And then, too, there is the glorious climate!
Town Trustees.
The Board of Town Trustees met in regular session on Wednesday. The resignation of E. F. Newbold as Town Clerk was accepted, and J. B. Pierce was unanimously elected to fill the vacancy.
Mr. Bentz addressed the Board relative to using oil as fuel at the water works instead of wood and coal. He offered to furnish a tank to hold the oil if the town would build the frame, the work of elevating the oil being the principal objection of the engineer to its use. The proposition was referred to the Committee on Public Improvements,

That remarkable vineyard of Mr. J. J. Dahl, which gave 12 tons to the acre of first crop, yielded about 39 tons second crop, making the total yield 154 tons to the acre. It is a remarkable record.
Capt. A. S. Ferguson arrived from San Francisco on Monday to look after his business affairs. One result of his visit is the inauguration of improvements on the Planters' Hotel building.
Mr. James T. Stewart, farmerly of Anaheim but lately of Los Angeles, has gone to Colorado, Texas, to fill a responsible position in the water works of that city. There are few men who could as efficiently fill the position, Mr. Stewart being as thorough a mechanic as can be found. Success to him.
One day last week Mr. G. W. Sponable drove to the hills for a load of wood, taking with him a new Winchester rifle. While gathering the wood he was necessarily away from the wagon for a short time, but it was never out of his sight, yet the rifle and his funch were taken from the wagon, and there is no clue to the clever thief.
Bank Commissioners Farnum and White made an official inspection of the affairs of the Bank of Anaheim on Wednesday, and bestowed a high compliment on Mr. James for his careful and judicious management of the bank's business. The deposits now reach $90,000, an amount greatly in excess of the volume of deposits at any previous time.

Mr. Bentz addressed the Board relative to using oil as fuel at the water works instead of wood and coal. He offered to furnish a tank to hold the oil if the town would build the frame; the work of elevating the oil being the principal objection of the engineer to its use. The proposition was referred to the Committee on Public Improvements, with power to act.
The bill of the railroad committee, laid over from last meeting, was ordered paid.
Messrs Hilmer and Northam were appointed a committee to confer with the officers of the Immigration Association regarding the refunding to the town treasury of the $300 donated to the association by the former board.

Mr. Chas. Hilmer returned the other day from a trip through the northern part of the State, and confirms the opinion expressed elsewhere of the prevailing depression.
His daughters, the Misses Katie and Sallie Hilmer, have entered the Stockton Business College as pupils and will finish their education there. It is a most excellent institution of learning, and its graduates are thoroughly educated in all the branches which they may have studied.
The Internal Revenue Department is getting in its work in Santa Ana. The winery of Peter Eschelbach was seized on Thursday for violation of the statutes in that case made and provided. Peter is absent on missionary work in Maine, and a mean advantage is being taken of his absence.
Mr. H. S. Knapp has been placed in charge of the winery as keeper.
Mr. R. J. Northam, agent of the Stearns Ranchos, has given notice that he will vigorously prosecute, according to law, all persons found shooting game on any of the Stearns Ranchos. This course has been found necessary because there have been frequent instances of cattle and horses being wounded by careless hunters, especially on Los Bolsas. Notices to the above effect are to be posted on the premises.
Mr. Max Nebelung has bought the store formerly kept by E. F. Newbold, and will add largely to the stock immediately, so that he will have a complete assortment of everything in his line. He will also give much of his time to the real estate business.

In Los Angeles on Saturday night, Robert McSweeney, otherwise known as Robert Hodgen, was shot by Jim Ashe, and the victim will probably die.
On Sunday evening in Sonoratown, Luis Contreras stabbed Tiburcio Gonzales, inflicting a wound not necessarily fatal. Both Ashe and Contreras are in jail.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred C. Rimpau, whose marriage is recorded to-day, are in San Bernardino on their wedding trip. Everybody in Anaheim knows the young people, and there are none who will not wish them all manner of good luck. And the Gazette, especially, sends them greeting and hopes that their married life will be a long and happy one.
The high license ordinance enacted by the Los Angeles Council is to be tested. It went into operation on Monday, and a prominent member of the League of Freedom was arrested for a refusal to pay the license. His will be a test case. The fight begins with the chances against the saloon-keepers. High license has been sustained by the courts of other States, and it is doubtful whether anything repugnant to the principle can be found in the Constitution of this State.

He will also give much of his time to the real estate business. His brother, Mr. Franz Nebelung, who recently arrived from Europe, will assist him in the management of the business.
Of the individual who sold stolen cattle and horse in Anaheim, the San Bernardino Times says: "The jury in the Casteel case found him guilty of robbery, and he will be sentenced on Monday. He has already a sentence overhanging him, and the probabilities are that Jake Casteel will retire from the cattle business for some time."
"Why not complete the fourth side?" asks the Riverside Press, referring to Anaheim's embryo reservoir. "Such a reservoir would furnish a 350-inch stream of water for 100 days, and would be worth many times what it would cost. Nature has done its part of the work and the people of Anaheim now have the floor."
In Los Angeles on Wednesday, James L. Parker accidentally shot his room mate, Joe Williams, inflicting a wound which will probably prove fatal. Parker was showing Williams his revolver when it was accidentally discharged.
The first sign of the approach of the holiday season is given in the advertisement of Mr. Luedke. He has a most beautiful collection of toys and vases, and we advise everybody to call and inspect his stock.

The Supervisors to the People.
The report of the last Grand Jury arranges us for "great looseness in the management of affairs and for working not in the interest of the people, but in a hap-hazard, loose manner."
So serious charges made by a body of such high authority demand a defense, which we take the first opportunity to make. The evidence offered to substantiate the charges of looseness, consists of bills alleged to have been wrongfully paid by us. Seven bills in favor of Aaron Smith, with amount, nature of services rendered and the date, excepting the year which is (accidentally?) omitted. Of those bills, the five which show the greatest evidence of overcharge were allowed in 1883 by a former Board. The other two, after being cut down to what we considered a proper amount, were allowed and paid. A bill from the Sheriff is offered in which he charges $124 for 620 miles traveled in going for a culprit, and $142.50 for returning with him. Those charges are within the rates allowed by law. The last items are two bills, each for $25, for printing. Both were paid in 1884, and not during our administration. It is alleged that "in order to bring bills within contract, when 2,000 receipts are actually ordered, 4,000 are charged and allowed." That allegation arises from a blunder made by the committee or the experts of the Grand Jury, and as an explanation of the matter has already been published, no further comment is necessary.
The evidence as set forth certainly shows a looseness, and a culpable looseness, on the part of those who offer it, but not against us.
Further charges and criticisms affecting us are made by the Grand Jury. It is stated that there is no record of the amount due to the county for the care of sick marines. There is such a record, and we are taking the necessary steps to collect the amount due. Compensation has been legally allowed to members of our board for time spent at a distance from their homes in examining roads and bridges. Upon that, and no other ground, the charge is made that we have illegally taken pay as Road Commissioners.
The statement that the road districts are in debt for about $15,000 is lamentably true, but no part of that debt has been created during our administration, although the condition of the roads has tempted us to spend more than the small levy of the last Board allowed us for road purposes. We are accused of subsidizing certain county offices. There are several offices which cannot be conducted for the salary fixed by law, and at least two them would probably be vacant, if no help had been allowed them. As we have legal authority to grant such help, we have done it, and shall continue in that course so long as it seems necessary.
In regard to the appropriation for the obsequies of General Grant: We were publicly and privately advised and pledged by many.

The statement that the road districts are in debt for about $15,000 is lamentably true, but no part of that debt has been created during our administration, although the condition of the roads has tempted us to spend more than the small levy of the last Board allowed us for road purposes. We are accused of subsidizing certain county offices. There are several offices which cannot be conducted for the salary fixed by law, and at least two them would probably be vacant, if no help had been allowed them. As we have legal authority to grant such help, we have done it, and shall continue in that course so long as it seems necessary.
In regard to the appropriation for the obsequies of General Grant: We were publicly and privately advised and urged by many good citizens that such an appropriation was demanded by the people, and no person was more persistent in that direction than Mr. Cohn, then chairman of a citizen's committee, and more recently chairman of the investigating committee of the aforesaid Grand Jury.
The sending of a delegation to the State Board of Equalization is held up as an instance of ourreckless extravagance. We were cited to appear before that Board, and rumors came from the north that we were threatened with a raise of 40 per cent. Leading capitalists and business men urged us to go in a body. We considered it advisable to be fully represented there, and we believe that the county derived great benefit from our action; and further, that if our course had different we should have been generally censured. No member charged more than for the time actually spent for the county, and for his necessary expenses during that time.
We consider the advice given to us, in regard to the refunding of bonds, to be unauthorized, uncalled for and imprisonment.
We are advised to pass an ordinance requiring the Tax Collector to make weekly settlements with the Treasurer during the collection of taxes. As we are not vested with authority to repeal a statutory enactment, we shall have to worry along under the State laws as they exist, until they are repealed or amended by the legally constituted authorities.
We have nothing further to say in regard to the charges and insinuations against us contained in the said report, but it may be for the good of the people that we look into the acts and methods of the last Grand Jury.
That body, after finishing its criminal business, and after getting outside information in regard to the long standing defactions of the County Recorder, appointed an investigating and working committee and employed a corps of experts. A short examination proved the defalcation of the Recorder, and thereupon, after a vigorous attempt to whitewash, by a resolution of censure and admonition, he was indicted. One of the experts, who served during the past season as a Deputy Assessor, investigated the Assessor's office, and solely on his report the books of that office were declared to be well kept. We do not question the decision, but only the method of reaching it. Several mare's nests were discovered—alleged grave errors were dissolved by brief explanations. Ex-Tax Collector Ellis was obliged by newspaper statements, arising from the investigations, to send an agent from San Francisco to prove that his accounts were correct. It is open to censure that members of the August body called to their room two members of our Board, to urge their support of Mr. Cohn, the Chairman of the Investigating Committee, to fill the office of Recorder, made vacant by the resignation of C. E. Miles. The honorable body adjourned on the 15th of October, leaving the county files of papers in unnecessary and abominable confusion.

Referring to a paragraph in the Gazette in which the editor assigned to others the duty of getting together an exhibit of Anaheim products for display at the meeting of the Horticultural Society in Los Angeles on the 16th inst., the Riverside Press is moved to say:
The remarks are pertinent. The public expect the live editor to take hold of all public questions, act on public committees for the public good at his own private expense, and then when they want a little printing done they will carry it around to every little job office in town whose proprietor is decoining his entire time and energies to his own private affairs, and will thus peddle out the job to the man who will do the work for five cents less than the live editor, while at the same time probably she said editor is out gathering in an exhibit of fruit for the public good, paying freight, packing and boxing the same; or perhaps he is attending a railroad committee meeting to assist in building up the country; or he may be at work negotiating for the settlement of some water or other question of public benefit, and while he is thus out the employer of the water or other company for whom he is laboring for nothing, is out with a $1.50 job seeing if he can't find some little office that will do it for $1.25. No Brother Meirose, your decision is a good one.
The following were adopted by the Orange Entomological Society:
Resolved That it is the sense of this society that honey bees are a great nuisance to the fruit industry of the valley, and ought to be removed to the mountains, where they will be less injurious to the community and more profitable to their owners.
Resolved That bees are especially injurious to ripe fruit in the field; are destructive to fruit drying in the sun; take possession of dwelling houses and are a great annoyance to inmates; domicile in steeples and belfries of school houses and churches; and spread red scale, the most destructive pest to citrus culture, from tree to tree and from grove to grove, and their presence ought not to be tolerated within five miles of any orchard or vineyard.
Transactions at the United States Land Office in Los Angeles for the month of October were: Seven cash entries, 2,811.44 acres; forty-six homestead entries, 6,846.50 acres; twenty-eight timber-culture entries, 3,872.-

November 3, 1885.
Those of our people who have occasion to travel over the main road between Anaheim and Los Angeles were considerably exercised yesterday over a report that the Supervisors intended to build a bridge over the river at Ranchito instead of at Sanford's Crossing. Supervisor Ross has been asked to favor the latter locality, as to locate the bridge at Ranchito would work a great inconvenience to the people of this end of the county.
There was a very anxious farmer in town yesterday. He brought his three-year-old boy with him, and the little chap strayed off and for several hours no tidings could be had of him. He was finally found at the house of Mr. Barr, a mile from town, whither he had toddled with childish unconcern.
A sweet potato, weighing a trifle over fifty pounds, was raised this season by Mr. Alfred Beckett on his place at Garden Grove. The potato will be sent to Los Angeles. Some years ago he raised one which weighed 47 pounds.
Transactions at the United States Land Office in Los Angeles for the month of October were: Seven cash entries, 2,811.44 acres; forty-six homestead entries, 6,846.50 acres; twenty-eight timber-culture entries, 3,872.08 acres; six final homesteads, 948.51 acres; forty-one pre-emption filings, three mining applications, one soldier's homestead declaration; railroad selection, 8,507 acres.
The Conference of the M. E. Church South at Los Angeles refused to change the name of the church. I. N. McGuire and M. L. Wicks were chosen delegates to the General Conference.

Mr. E. Springer, of Mechanicsburg, Pa., writes: "I was afflicted with lung fever and abscess on lungs, and reduced to a walking skeleton. Got a free trial bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, which did me so much good that I bought a dollar bottle. After using three bottles, found myself once more a man, completely restored to health, with a hearty appetite, and a gain in flesh of 48 lbs."
Call at Wm. M. Higgins' drug store and get a free trial bottle of this certain cure for all Lung Diseases. Large Bottles $1.

Physicians Were in Vain.
Mr. David Netter, 795 Mission street, San Francisco, Cal., writes that for several months he suffered from a severe cold and cough, which finally resisted in total hoarseness. He consulted several physicians, but obtained no relief, and then tried Red Star Cough Cure. After taking a few doses, he felt better, and before he had finished a bottle he was completely cured.

An Internal Revolution
Which enables the stomach to throw off the pulse of dyspepsia, in affected through the aid of Hortette's Stomach Bittern, a most efficient ally in warring with all disorders which affect the digestive organs, the liver and the bowels. When the dyspeptic experiences heartburn, wind on the stomach, or pay of the other familiar symptoms of his malady, a wine-glassful of this matchless stomach will dissipate them, and a pernance of the remedy bring about a care. Consipation and billiousness, evils to the relief of which aperitifs and cathartics are inadequate, also yield to this fine alternative. The restoration of appetite and nightly recoose, and the disappearance of those nervous symptoms that habitually annoy the chronic sufferer from dyspepsia, also cause upon the use of the Bittern, which is likewise a standard remedy and preventive of fever and ague, rheumatism, kidney and bladder troubles and debility.

D. L. Moody says about long prayers: "If, when Peter found himself sinking in the waves of Galilee, he had insisted on putting before his petition, 'Lord, save me,' the regular prayer-meeting round-about introduction, he would have been forty feet under water before he could have asked of the Lord the help he needed."
