WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY MARCH 12, 1887 Kleinigkeiten. Items of News and Correspondence on all live subjects are solicited by the editor. He brief, and write directing to the point. All communications must be signed by the author, not for publication but for the information of the editor. Extra copies of the Gazette can be purchased at the store of J. Helmsen. The ball to be given by the Anaheim Orchestra has been postponed until April 16th, in deference to the Lenten season. Lewis & Co. find their business increasing so much that they are compelled to purchase another livery team at once and sooner if possible. See adv. The ladies of Orangathorpe will give a social next Tuesday evening the 15th at the residence of Mr. A. McDermont. Everybody is cordially invited. The residence of Theo Reiser is being artistically painted. The work is under the supervision of H. Boege, and six or seven men are employed. Travel has been quite brisk during the week from Anaheim to South Riverside by people who are interested at the latter place. Sycamore street has been graded from Lemon to Palm streets. It would be a good idea to grade the entire length of the street from L. Parker’s place to West street. Houses to Rent; Houses for Sale. Railroad "News" If one travels throughout the county with attentive ears he will gather in plenty of rumors regarding the railroad situation. It is a peculiarity of the case that there are so many men who know, or profess to know, all about the purposes and plans of a company which proverbially keeps its plans to itself. These rumors, therefore, are not worth printing, and as we are one of the few who know nothing concerning the railroad company’s plans, we cannot give any “news.” It may be as well to remark, however, that there seems to be an irreconcilable conflict between the able, industrious and indefatigable reporter for the Associated Press at Santa Ana, and the attorneys and officers of the Atchison Company, and it will be interesting to note the outcome to see whether the rural correspondent or the Directors control the operations of the company. His latest bulletin, published yesterday, disposes effectually of Orange’s pretensions. Here it is. Santa Ana, March 10. The town of Orange is excited over the report that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad would locate the junction of the Riverdale, Los Angeles and Santa Ana Railroad at Orange. Three surveys have been run, one to Anaheim one to Orange and one to Santa Ana. The original intention was to make Anaheim the junction of the two roads; but the plan has been abandoned. The latest survey makes Santa Ana the shortest distance from Burlwell Point, and this survey will be adopted, and Santa Ana will form the junction for both railroads. The only reason we have to doubt the authenticity of the above statement of plans and purposes is found in the complaint filed some weeks ago by the R., S. A. and L. A. R. in the matter of condemning the right way through the San Joaquin rancho. The complaint stated that the point of junction was near Anaheim, and the fact that the complaint has not been amended would seem to show that it is possible the correspondent, above quoted is “counting” his chickens before they are hatched." The Judges of the Superior Court have arrived upon a decision that Travel has been quite brisk during the week from Anaheim to South Riverside by people who are interested at the latter place. Sycamore street has been graded from Lemon to Palm streets. It would be a good idea to grade the entire length of the street from L. Parker’s place to Weat street. Houses to Rent. Houses for Sale. Business Lots for Sale. Apply to Melrose & Knapp. Grimshaw & Soreusen of Anaheim have been awarded the contract for building three thousand feet of flume for South Riverside. The cost of the work will be about twelve thousand dollars. A party of young ladies and gentlemen from Anaheim enjoyed a picnic among themselves at the Santiago Canyon on Thursday. Lewis & Co.’s four-horse omnibus was used as a conveyance. The young folks report having had a pleasant time. L. Ackerman, the proprietor of the Union House, has responded to a long felt want by opening an employment agency, where people wanting work, and people wanting workmen, can be accommodated instead of having to search all over town. We commend the enterprise to public consideration. The champion nomad of Anaheim and vicinity is the youngest son of Alex. Henry of Fairview. On the first day of the week, in company with two other boys, and armed with only a Remington six-barrelled pistol, he succeeded in bagging 43 rabbits, a coyote, a badger and a huge rattlesnake, and this was all done in the space of a few hours. When the people of Anaheim have somewhat recovered from the effect of their liberal subscriptions to the railroad depot site, the Building Association, the street car line, etc., the enterprise that should next engage their attention is an artesian well. It is the opinion of experts that the procurement of such a well in the heart of town is only a question of depth—and money. The work of planting and setting out vineyards has already been inaugurated in Anaheim and vicinity. Some of the pioneer vineyardists who dug up their old vines last year are preparing the ground for the planting of new vineyards, while others contemplate fallowing for a few years, as the ground in some instances was worn out. Mrs. A. Frohling is planting the north part of her tract, which has lain idle for several years, to vines. The Judges of the Superior Court have agreed upon a division of the legal business of their courts. Judge Gardiner is to take charge of the probate, insolvency and appealed cases from Justices Courts, together withquisitions of lunacy. Judge O’Melveny is to take half of the criminal business and all the civil cases when a jury is demanded. Judge Chinney will take half of the criminal cases and one fourth of the civil business which is now heard by Judge Brunson. Judge Hatton will take the remainder, which means that he will have to attend to the greater part of the civil business, as in all probability this arrangement will throw the burden of the law calendar, as far as civil cases go, on him. In other words, he will have about threequarters of the civil business, as it will be impossible to determine what case will demand jury trials. This arrangement will go into effect on the opening of the April term. The Town Board of Health went on an inspecting tour among the back yards yesterday, and found a very fifty condition of affairs in places where they least expected to find any violation of sanitary laws. The Marshal gives notice in our advertising columns to day that calendar’s will be rigely prosecuted. Official warning and interference should not be necessary to awaken people to a sense of duty in this regard, and it is to be hoped they will see the necessity for complying with the reasonable request of the Board of Health. On another page will be found described the disinfectants recommended by the medical fraternity. We yesterday saw a lot of oranges and lemons grown on R.J. Northam’s ranch in North Anaheim which were being packed to send as an exhibit to the Citrus Fair at Colton. In size, color and cleanliness, the fruit was unquestionably the inferior of none grown in Southern California. There was not the faintest suggestion of smut or scale of any kind, and we challenge a comparison of this fruit with any that will be exhibited at the Colton Fair. If premiums are offered we predict that Mr. Northam will secure the highest. Malvern Hill Post, G.A.R., desires to get the names of all soldiers buried in Anaheim cemetery, and find some difficulty in getting the required data from the official register. It will be considered a favor of them. The Gazette enclosed containing lee any other paper because there are than in other publications but why! It is fortunate finds other remitry, for if he relied on the business mans would need to buy and oleomarine spread. And a happy circumspect find it quite important daily demand and purse to assist every imaginable us to speak of the teen years during this paper we do has been made to have freely given the town and city we make mild caption that we will refer to the fact remains not business tactical policy toward whose services for the public go. The ideas above by an editorial article a valued exchange in the advertising press and yet whose says: We have been in town who boast dollars in advertisement upon their further service to any of our news from the Taun paper with a pait year.

The efforts ome means of the prophe end, and they are nity for its advance years the press hails end that we sho our county should should be increase thousands of samples never had or ask which was for their intelligence about articles from the local far and wide over t The work of planting and setting out vineyards has already been inaugurated in Anaheim and vicinity. Some of the pioneer vineyardists who dug up their old vines last year are preparing the ground for the planting of new vineyards, while others contemplate fallowing for a few years, as the ground in some instances was worn out. Mrs. A. Frohling is planting the north part of her tract, which has lain idle for several years, to vine. The Morris-Sullivan Mirror of Ireland Combination will appear at Kroeger's Hall tonight. The programme is sparkling and varied, comprising extracts from Moore's immortal melodies, character sketching, panoramas and scenical views of city, county and village in Ireland. The views of scene will alone be a rare treat, for Irish scenery contains much of what is most picturesque, most pastoral and most vividly and variedly beautiful in nature. It is an entertainment of rare merit and well worthy of the patronage of lovers of music. A grand vocal and instrumental farewell concert complimentary to Miss Nellie Bancroft will be given soon by her many friends in Anaheim. Miss Bancroft has for a number of years been very prominent in all musical matters in Anaheim, ever ready without fee or reward to entertain the people with her brilliant performances, and now that she is about to leave us, to continue her musical studies, it is but fitting that the people of Anaheim should pay a slight compliment to her worth and talent by filling Kroeger's Hall at her farewell concert. Will H. Dake, the rustling Secretary of the Pacific Mutual Aid Society of Los Angeles, was in town several days during the week and succeeded in adding a large membership to the society. It is a popular institution, based upon sound principles, and offers insurance at a minimum cost. It being a home institution it should receive the patronage of those of our people who desire life insurance. It numbers among the officers many well-known citizens of Los Angeles, among them E. F. Spence of the First National Bank, who is Treasurer, and Dr. Walter Lindley who is Medical Director. Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., desires to get the names of all soldiers buried in Anaheim cemetery, and find some difficulty in getting the required data from the official register. It will be considered a favor if those who know the names of the soldiers buried in the cemetery referred to will send them to Rev. G. A. Irvin, Chaplain of the Post, as soon as possible. The newly-organized Anaheim Brass Band met for the first time on Tuesday evening in Kroeger's Hall to practice. Before long the citizens of Anaheim will have the opportunity of hearing some soul-stirring music, as the present members are conceded to be good musicians. Buena Park is the symphonious name of a new town to be laid out on the ranch of Mr. J. A. Whitaker, about six miles from Anaheim, on the line of the San Diego and Los Angeles road. Full particulars of this new enterprise will be given next week. A two-inch water pipe has been laid along Center street to the Center tract, so that the expected population in that part of town can now get an abundance of pure domestic water. Col. George H. Smith, of the law firm of Glassell, Smith & Patton of Los Angeles, is a prominent candidate for the Supreme bench to fill the vacancy caused by Chief Justice Morrison's death. Jim. Smith, Constable Smythe's colored capture, who robbed Ey & Groat's barber shop, plead guilty, and has been sent to State Prison for two years. S. A. Dennis, the painter, has a first-class buggy which he offers for sale very cheap. See adv. To the Business Men of Anaheim. The Gazette enjoys a very satisfactory circulation. It is probably read as extensively as any country journal in Southern California, and among its readers are a large number of people in the East and elsewhere who form their ideas of Anaheim from what they see and read in these pages. Such being the case, it is probably unfortunate for the welfare of the town that its paper is so prosperous in the way indicated. It is very rarely indeed that we allow a word to appear in these columns complimentary to the paper, and we ought to be pardoned at this time for remarking that in its editorial and local columns it is, at least, as faithful and able an exponent of the interests of Anaheim as it is possible for a journal to be. Critics of the Smart Ack order there doubtless are to whom this journal has many imperfections and who are certain that they could "run it" very much better than the present management; but as long as we receive the commendation of those whose good wishes are worth having, we can boar the carping of juvenile critics with indifference and equanimity. But we began this unusual sermon for the purpose of saying that those strangers at a distance who read the Gazette, and take their ideas of its business proportions from the advertising columns—which ought to be, and generally is, accepted as indicative of the business aspects of the place—must be driven to the conclusion that Anaheim is a very insignificant and one horse village. The Gazette enjoys the questionable honor of containing less local advertisements than any other paper in California, and this not because there are fewer business houses here than in other places where newspapers are published, but because—Heaven knows why! It is fortunate for the publisher that he finds other remunerative fields for his industry, for if he relied upon the patronage of the business men of Anaheim his bread would need to be made of very coarse flour, and the oleomargarine would be very ethinly spread.

He says: We have been told of a "business" man in town who boasts that he only spent four dollars on advertising last year, and prizes him uponthe fact. It is needless to say that he further saves money by not subscribing to any of our board papers, but gets news from the East where he gets a country paper with a patent outside for a dollar a year. We do not suppose that a man of this kind would speak his Thanksgiving turkey, but if we were our neighbors we should take good care to see that our chicken coop was taken up at night. He belongs to certain class, and it is a class that is just as disdainful as the law will allow them to be, who profit by the public laborers of others. They will buy property and allow it to be idle in order that their neighbors may make improvements, and increase its value, then will sell for the increased line that has been put upon it by their neighbors' enterprise, and boost of their shrewdness. They are barnacles who cling tothe community and retard its progress; they reap what others have sown,and regard their dishonesty as business shrewdness. Newspapers are public property,more so than any other class of business enterprise. They work forthe upbuildingofacommunity.Theeffortsofthepublisherandthemeansoftheproprietorareinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvancement.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvancement.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatweshouldhaveprosperity,theourcountyshouldsettleup,thatbusineshouldbeinvestedforthisend,andtheyaresupportedbythecommunityforitsadvantage.Inthiscityforyearsthepresshaslaboredsteadfastlytotheendthatwe ShouldHaveProsperity,theourCountyShouldSetOutForTheMonthAtTheEndOfYearImprisonmentInThe Penitentiary Personal Paragraphs.

Dwight Whiting is in town,the guest.of many people on vacation. Editor Baker.of The Santa Ana Standard, is moved by The Gazette's true story-of remarkable growths-to record-thefollowing facts: About six or seven years ago a man living near Orange set out two olive posts on each side of his gateway. They grew rapidly as they were near his ditch,and two years ago Newspapers are public property, more so than any other class of business enterprise. They work for the upbuilding of a community. The efforts of the publisher and the means of the proprietor are invested for this end, and they are supported by the community for its advancement. In this city for years the press has labored steadfastly to the end that we should have prosperity, that our county should settle up, that business should be increased. We have sent out thousands of sample copies for which we never had or asked remuneration, all of which was for the sole purpose of spreading intelligence about our town and valley. Articles from the local newspapers are copied far and wide over the land, and San Bernardino is known where it would never be heard of were it not for their efforts, and then we find "shrewd business men" who make their boast that while enjoying a good trade, the result of the newspaper labors, they have only spent four dollars a year with them. Is such a man to be trusted? He would give short measure in dry goods, short weight in his groceries, and think that in cheating a customer he was as shrewd as in cheating the papers of what is justly their due. The newspapers have been supported in their efforts by some of our businessmen; they have worked to create the business which all enjoy, and yet we have here a man who boasts that he has done no part toward it, while sharing in the results. Suppose the whole community were like him and the papers were all frozen out, where would his business be? A community cannot live in the nineteenth century without a newspaper, nor can the newspaper live without patronage, and God help that community which is possessed of many men who boast that their yearly outlay for printer's ink is only four dollars.

Editor Baker, of the Santa Ana Standard, is moved by the Gazette's true story of remarkable growths to record the following facts: About six or seven years ago a man living near Orange set out two olive posts on each side of his gateway. They grew rapidly as they were near his ditch, and two years ago the owner told us his crop of berries on the two trees amounted to ten bushels. Any one who doubts this story can't eat pickled olives. Up at Modena they tell of a fellow there who a few years ago by mistake planted an olive cutting wrong end upwards, and now the little thing has developed into a huge tree with the roots all on top hanging in a lovely mass like the branches of a weeping willow; while the ground every season is literally swelled with the charming fruit. Any man who don't believe this is a harland don't know how to make hash. Boiled Oranges. Many of the street orange peddlers in San Francisco have oblate been resorting to the practice of boiling their stock in trade in order to increase its value as a salable commodity. An orange that has undergone the boiling process increases in size and improves in appearance generally, but it does so at the expense of its flavor, for it becomes worthless as an edible. They can generally be detected by the absence of any smut on the skin, the oranges looking as though they had each been the recipient of a careful hand-polish. Those who do not care to be victimized had better beware of an orange that is too clean. This is a new wrinkle in the chapter of fraud. The extraordinary popularity of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is the natural result of its use by intelligent people for over forty years.
