WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY JULY 31, 1886 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. THE ABSORBING TOPIC. In an interview with Stephen M. White Esq., published in the Times, that gentleman says, referring to the riparian decision: This county is all right if left alone. Take, for instance, Anaheim and Santa Ana. The title upon which Anaheim bases its right to use water is a deed from the former owner, Ontiveras, to Prohling & Hansen. At the time of making that deed Ontiveras was the owner of the rancho San Juan y Cajon de Santa Ana, which ranch is riparian to the river Santa Ana. By the terms of that deed Ontiveras granted the privilege of using so much of the water from the Santa Ana river as appertained to that ranch, for the purpose of irrigation. The land granted by this deed was the 1165 acres upon which Anaheim is now located, and by virtue of the riparian privilege so deeded by Ontiveras, the gentlemen who founded Anaheim took water from the Santa Ana river, carried it to their newly acquired tract, which before that time had never been irrigated, and have built up the flourishing town which is now located there. The Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana, upon which Tustin, Orange and Santa Ana are located, is riparian to the river Santa Ana, and the result of the litigation which was had between the Anaheim and Orange people was the roaring notion by the Supreme Court of the fact that the waters of the river appertained to both parties litigant, and one of the judges stated in his opinion that the rights of the respective parties originated in a riparian source. I know a good deal about that case, as Mr. Giassell and myself conducted one side of it during the seven years which were covered by the litigation. Under the doctrine of Lux vs. Haggin the Anaheim and Santa Ana people are safe. They may be so under any theory, but they certainly are under the rules laid down by Justice McKinstry. I might call your attention at this point to another fact. The American Water Company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company are corporations formed merely to facilitate the distribution of water. Herefore they have been charged only enough to pay the actual cost of maintaining their works. I have no doubt that the water consumers would be somewhat astonished if they were compelled to pay six per cent on the cost of construction and maintenance of the water works belonging to these corporations. This is comforting, if correct. If, however, a litigant desires a straightforward resolution against a person or entity, he usually notified A. G. Hoffman and E. B. MePhetridge of Marysville to leave that vicinity Tuesday. The people claim that they were there as spies. The mandate was obeyed. It is evident that the injunction against hydraulic mining is not strictly observed, else the frequent bouncing of spies would be unnecessary. SUPERINTENDENT DUNN, of the California Southern, received a telegram from one of the agents of his road, stating that a circular issued at San Francisco urging Veterans to avoid Los Angeles, is being freely circulated along the roads leading to California. This is certainly small business for San Francisco. The Legislation The San Francisco Post having charged that Senators Creighton, Boone, Cox, Chandler, Cross, >Dougherty, Drumm, Kelley, Kellogg, Langford, Palmieri, Perry, Spencer, Taylor, Wallis, Whitney and Knight had been purchased to vote with the riparians on the Fresno Convention bills, the Senate resolved to exclude the Post reporter from the door, and deny that paper the privilege of the Senate hereafter. In the Assembly Committee on Constitutional Amendments, our Hazard introduced this: Resolved That it is inexpedient and improper at this time to present to the people of this State any amendment to the Constitution having for its object the reorganization of the Supreme Court, and the clerk of the committee is hereby directed to report all such amendments back with the recommendation that they do not pass. The resolution was lost—6 to 8. A large number of bills are being considered by the various committees. In fact, little else is being done, and probably little will be done until a U.S. Senator is elected. On Wednesday a Republican point caucus of Senators and Assemblymen to consider the advisability of electing a Republican to succeed Heirst was held. McClure presided and F. D. Ryan, Clerk of the Assembly, was Secretary. Seventy Republican Senators and Assemblymen answered the roll call. There was no question whatever as to the expediency of going into the election of a Senator next Tuesday,and the only Ed.

If, however, a litigant desires a straightforward, unbiased opinion of his case, he usually seeks for it in other quarters than in the office of the opposing lawyer. It is a pity, too, that Mr. White's opinions are not generally shared by men of money, whose wealth is needed for the development of water. There is not an irrigation company in the State to day that can borrow money on its franchise, because of the recent decision. Whenever it can be shown that under riparian rule the desert has been reclaimed and waste places made productive; or if it can be shown that the State's prosperity will expand and broaden under a system that practically confines the waters of the stream to its banks, then we will cast our hat high in the air and hurrah for Lux & Miller and riparianism. It is quite possible, also, that our water consumers will not only be astonished but shocked, at being compelled to pay six per cent. on the cost of construction of the water works, and this, too, under a law at present in force. Mr. White has forgotten that it is only a few weeks since the operation of that law was invoked in the Superior Court, and that the Judge is even now considering his opinion. It may be that there is a job hidden away in the recesses of some of the multitude of water bills which are being considered by the Legislature. It is quite possible that some of them, if they become law, will be as fraught with mischief as the purely riparian principle. There are some bills being considered that ought not to pass. But the same experience would be had at any session of the Legislature; good bills and bad bills will be introduced to the end of time, and the attempt to defeat all legislation on this question because some of the measures proposed are ill-advised or outright bad, is the tactics of an enemy who is driven to very puerile arguments. If the Legislature acted upon such a hypothesis, it would never pass another important law upon any subject. The solution of this subject, in our opinion, is in State control of water. The State ought to buy every vested interest in water supply and then develop every inch of the precious fluid and distribute it in such a way that it will do the greatest good to the greatest number. When such a system exists, the greatest point of prosperity will be within reach. A large number of bills are being considered by the various committees. In fact, little else is being done, and probably little will be done until U.S. Senator is elected. On Wednesday a Republican joint caucus of Senators and Assemblymen to consider the advisability of electing a Republican to succeed Heirst was held. McClare presided and F.D.Ryan, Clerk of the Assembly, was Secretary. Seventy Republican Senators and Assemblymen answered the roll call. There was no question whatever as to the expediency of going into the election of a Senator next Tuesday, and the only difficulty foreseen was the possibility of a quorum not being present next Tuesday, on account of the Grand Army celebration in San Francisco. A vote being taken, it was unanimously decided to proceed with the election of a successor to Heirst next Tuesday, and a committee was appointed to take necessary steps to secure a majority vote, and in every possible way to expedite the business of the occasion. It was suggested that if Tuesday should be declared a legal holiday, some questions may be raised as to the legality of an election on that day. The committee was instructed to look up the bearings on the question. The caucus adjourned after the members had pledged themselves to remain in Sacramento next Tuesday and fulfill their duty to their party by electing a United States Senator. Nothing especially new has been developed with regard to the candidates who are mentioned as the possible successors of Heirst. In the Assembly Morris, of Alameda, introduced the petition signed by David S. Terry, of Stockton, requesting the removal by the Legislature of Chief Justice Robt. F. Morrison and Justice John R. Sharpstein, of the Supreme Court, on the ground of their alleged incompetence to perform the duties of their offices by reason of physical and mental infirmity. The petition also asks that a committee of seven be appointed to investigate these charges: Mr. Yule moved to lay the matter on the table. The motion was lost by a vote of 21 to 43. Lovell moved an indefinite postponement. Lost by a vote of: Ayes, 14; noes, 50. The resolution was then adopted and Speaker Parks appointed a committee to investigate the matter, as follows: Morris, McJunkin, Gregory, McGlashan, Asbe, Hussey, Davis. In the Senate a similar petition was introduced by Baldwin. The resolution requesting the Governor to declare August 31 and 4th legal holidays in deference to the G.A.R. Encampment was voted down almost unanimously. A resolution expressing full sympathy and accord with the Governor in his call of this extra session, and objects thereof, so tar as pertains to needed legislation in regard to irrigation, was voted down with a loud laugh.

The solution of this subject, in our opinion, is in State control of water. The State ought to buy every vested interest in water supply and then develop every inch of the precious fluid and distribute it in such a way that it will do the greatest good to the greatest number. When such a system exists, the greatest point of prosperity will be within reach. The Supreme Court rendered another water decision on Thursday in the case of Edgar vs. Stevenson. The court has reversed the judgment of the lower court, which granted the plaintiff an injunction compelling defendant to abstain from diverting the surplus overflow of a stream of water which passed in its course from plaintiff's through defendant's land. The court holds that defendant has no right to divert from the stream water to such an extent that the body should be lessened, but is entitled to all surplus which may be occasioned by the swelling of the stream during the winter season. Now, what sane man will maintain that Southern California can prosper under any such system as that? Senator Edmunds, from the Judiciary Committee, has reported the bill to detach certain counties from the United States Judicial District of California, and to create a United States Judicial District of Southern California. This will give Los Angeles a District Court. The United States Court has held that National Bank shares are taxable. This is saddening to editors and other rich people who have invested their little savings in these securities. Jack Dempsey, the hitherto invincible pugilist, has been at last knocked out by C. Upid in one round. He was married at Portland, Oregon, on Tuesday to Miss Maggie Brady. Crimes and Casualties At Needles on Wednesday William Story, while intoxicated, fell under the cars and had both legs cut off. He died soon after. Manuel Fratardo shot his brother at Panoche last Friday, inflicting a slight wound. John Koehler, a baker of Louisville, Ky., shot and killed John Carter and mortally wounded Peter Haupt. He found them in his house, and on their refusing to leave he did the shooting. He was jealous of Hanpt. At the same place on the same day J. P. Strunk shot and killed Chas. Hoover, and seriously wounded the latter's father, Dr. Hoover. Strunk asserts that young Hoover was intimate with his wife. Constable M. Bombre, who was shot by one of the desperadoes who attempted to murder Draper Brothers near Soledad, after lingering for sixty-three days, died Monday at Castroville. E. B. Trainer of Calistoga suicided at a Merced hotel by cutting his throat. Miss Lottie Cutter and James Woods were drowned Sunday at Pittsburg Landing, about three miles below Antioch while bathing. Miss Cutter waded into deep water, and being unable to swim called for help, when Woods went to her assistance. In endeavoring to aid her, both sank and were drowned. The body of Miss Cutter was recovered. She was a sister of Mrs. J. Downey Harvey of Los Angeles. A Great Water Scheme Lodi, Cal., July 29.—A private irrigation scheme of gigantic proportions is being organized by Lawrence & Hutchings of this place. The firm are the owners of 10,000 acres of land in the San Joaquin valley, and the proposition is to irrigate it by pumping water from the river of that name. The amount of water necessary is enormous, as it requires a great deal of moisture in that section to secure a good crop. A contract has been made with Gregory & Co., of this city, for an engine and a pump of a capacity of 6,000,000 gallons of water daily. Newport Notes Ed. Gazette.—Our party of four spent three days at Newport Landing last week, and as we were all unanimous in the expression that it is as fine a camping place as there is on this part of the coast, we thought it might be of interest to your readers in giving a description of the place and its attractions, together with other notes picked up during our stay. Newport is situated 10 or 11 miles south of Santa Ana and is the port for that place and surrounding villages in shipping a part of the products of the lower Santa Ana valley. There are at present but a dozen or more houses at the place, occupied by the fishermen and employees of the company. The warehouse is about 100x50 feet, and is built overlooking the bay to the south. The water at the piers is deep enough for the steamers to land up to the wharf, the main bay running in the form of a crescent to the landing place, although numerous small bays lie out on all sides, and runs on by the whale entrance of four miles in an irregular north-westerly direction. Almost perpendicular cliffs rise up close to the water near the wharf, making it an object of attraction to row through the aquatic canyons. In its entirety the bay is seven miles long, and the roar of the ocean can be but faintly heard at the wharf, which is a mile or more from the seashore. The principal features of attraction of the place are the two caves, one of which contains room enough for two dozen persons to camp in, and Rocky Point and Whitewash Point, the latter being the steamer's guide when entering the strait, which is 130 yards wide. The water inside the strait or bay is entirely calm, except the ripple caused by the tides and wind. The facilities for still-water bathing are excellent, but we would not advise women or children to bathe at the wharf, except those that can swim. Bathing in the surf can be enjoyed, nevertheless, and Rocky Point or the caves would be the place to camp when surf bathing is desired. Fishing is excellent at Newport, and there are three fishermen at the place at present, who make the largest hauls in the branching bays. Shell fish of certain species are abundant, and all that is necessary is the time and work to gather them, as there are large beds west of Whitewash Point on the island. Mussels can only be procured at certain seasons of the year, when the tide is at its lowest. Scallops are best obtained at low tide, and clams (of the small common species) are found embedded in the sand, and a small bunch of moss above the ground adjoices to the shell, thus making it easy to find them, by taking the moss as a guide. Large clams are very scarce, and it is seldom that any are found at this place. PACIFIC COAST ITEMS. A boy living near Scholl's Perry, Oregon, climbed a tree, and a passing hunter, seeing only part of the body, fired upon him. The boy had several shots in his shoulder and thigh. The Chino rancho, containing eight square leagues of land, has been mortgaged by Richard Gird to the Germania Savings and Loan Society of San Francisco for $180,000. The mortgage note bears 6½ per cent. interest, or $900 per month. At San Buenaventura the bee-men have called a mass meeting of bee-men throughout the county for August 6. It is proposed to form an association, and build warehouses and ship honey directly East through the association. Reports from all parts of the county show the honey yield to be about one-third of a crop. A eucalyptus tree 106 feet high was cut down recently in Santa Rosa. The tree, instead of being chopped down in the usual manner, was commenced on at the top, and piece by piece was cut off and lowered to the ground. The growth of the tree had moved an adjacent house two inches off and one inch up from the foundation. It was one of the oldest trees in town. In San Francisco on Wednesday a Chinese highbinder named Lee Chuck shot and instantly killed another Chimaman named Yen Yung in an alley in Chinatown. Police Officer Martin, who was near saw Chuck fleeing from the scene of the murder and ran after him. The Chimaman turned and snapped a double-barreled pistol twice in the officer's face. With the aid of another officer, the murderer was arrested and taken to the prison, charged with murder. Chuck, on being searched, was found to possess four pistols. He wore a steel coat of mail under his shirt, covering his entire body from the hips up. A Fearful Mistake. Pittsburgh, July 27.—Mrs. John Prill, living on South Twenty-eighth street, is a victim of a peculiarly horrible mistake made to-day. She became greatly frightened when a terrible storm, which passed over the section, broke in its fury, and she ran up to her bed chamber for a vase of holy water with wichh to sprinkle herself in the hope that in that way she might ward off the impending danger. In the excitement of the moment and semi-darkness of the room she missed;the bottle in which the water was kept and sensed one which contained sulphuric acid. She was not sparing with the terrible flandr., but dashed it in her face and over her head in considerable quantity. The first intimation of her mistake was the terrible pain which the acid inflicted, and she cried out almost instantly into her anguish, and the neighbors hearing the cries, rain in ESTRAY NOTICE CAME TO THE THOS.

The steamer Newport arrived in this bar-boron Monday evening at 6 P.M. with a cargo of lumber for the yard at the port, and general merchandise for Santa Ana, Newport and other place. She is manned by 15 men or more, and is quite a large vessel for such a place. The lumber yard is superintended by Mr. Kelley, the pilot. We were received with the utmost hospitality upon arriving by Mr. Hadley, an employee in the yard. The company employees get their water in a boat made especially for the purpose from a spring four miles up the bay. Campers get their supply from the island to the south, and the well is but forty feet from the salt water, the sand acting as a filter in the case. We could give more notes concerning the advantages of the place as a summer resort, but think that a trip to the place would give one a better idea of the facilities. ONE OF THE PARTY. NEWS ITEMS.

A Text for a Sermon. Ottawa, Ont., July 27.—The aged aunt of Joseph Goderrian, a French Canadian, died on Saturday, and last evening several friends of the family gathered at Goderrian's cottage to sympathize with them in their bereavement. After awhile the mourners began to make merry, and a wild scene of hilarity ensued. A terrific thunder storm arose, but none of the revellers noticed it. Finally a bolt came down the chimney. The coffin, which had been placed near the fireplace, was ripped up as clean as with a razor, and the body was reduced almost to a cinder, while Eugene Gareau and F. X. Bouvin, who were standing near, were instantly killed. The rest of the party, some six or seven in all, were rendered insensible by the shock and it was not until late this morning that any of them recovered. When they staggered out and told the story to the neighbors it was hardly credited; but when they fully realized it the superiors of the ignorant peasantry were aroused and not one would go near the house. We have good news for those wishing photographs. Lawrence & Son, the great photographers of Los Angeles, are making cabinet photographs for $3.50 per dozen. This is the only first class gallery that charges less than $7 per dozen. They have the finest rooms in the city, in the Downey Block, the same stairs that lead to public library. A strange disease has appeared on the horse ranges of Eiko county, Nev. The sick animal usually shows lameness in the left leg, as if it had thrown its stifle out. Soon the other hind leg is taken, and the animal breaks down entirely, and seems to suffer great pain. The disease is always fatal, though it runs from two weeks to three months. H. C. Gade has been appointed agent for John Wieland's Philadelphia Bottled Beer, and will deliver it to families in quantities to suit. Bowen's Budget, Fort Plain, N. Y., for March, 1886 says: In the multiplicity of medicines placed upon it market, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between the meritorious and the worthless. There are at least two excellent remedies widely used, the efficiency of which are unquestioned. We refer to St. Jacobs Oil and Red Star Cough Cure. Rhode Island is now 250 years old, but is very small for her age. A Wise Reform. The habit of administering quinine in powerful doses, as an antidote to malaria infestation, was once dangerously common. Happily this practice has undergone a wide reform. Not only the public, but professional men have adopted, not wholly of course, but largely, Hostetter's Stomach bitters as a safe botanic substitute for the pernicious alkaloid. The consequences of this change are most important. Now fever andague sufferers are cured formerly their complaints were only for the time relieved, or half-cured—the remedy eventually failing to produce any appreciable effect, except the doses are increased. A course of the Bitters, persistently followed, breaks up she worst attacks and prevents their return. The evidence in favor of this sterling specific and household medicine is of no ambiguous character, but positive and satisfactory, and the sources where it proceeds are very numerous.
