WEEKLY GAZETTE THURSDAY... JUNE 23, 1887 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. THE BOOM vs. THE BOOM. Many people are inclined to believe that a mule is a mule under all circumstances. The fact remains, however, that some considerable difference may be found even among mules. As this is true of the mule, so it is true of the boom. Of course, a boom is a boom no matter in what shape it comes or in what guise it sails; but, honestly analyzed, a wider difference may be found among booms than can possibly exist among mules. The boom may be divided into three leading classes: The boom speculative, the boom sporadic and the boom natural. The boom speculative is a damage if not a blight. Fomented by men who speculate for sake of speculation, it contains no public spirit and is only accidentally honest. The speculative boomer is simply a gambler who uses town lots and plowlands as his brother gamblers use faro chips, loaded dice and short cards. He is a fellow who stands between the men who would improve and the lands that invite improvement. The speculative boomer forces the settler to pay the price fixed by the speculative boom or he drives the settler away. If the speculative price sticks, the speculator crowds and poses as a public benefactor because, quoth he, "Have I not boomed your land values?" Many times, however, the boomer's boast proves but a boast; but if—as in the case of Southern California—circumstances are right and ripe, and the natural resources of the country are boundless, land values will remain, or perhaps go beyond the point to which the speculative boom placed them. The speculative boom nevertheless is a damage and only fails to terminate in blight because of the unfathomable wealth of the land. The following is a case pertinent and to the point: Last week we fell in with a speculative polican fresh from the woods of Maine. "I came here to make a stake," he said, "and I'm going to make it. When I first arrived I bought a piece of land at Pasadena for which everything was good." THE PROPOSED BRANCH SOLDIERS' HOME. The establishment of a branch soldiere home is under consideration and there seems to be a disposition to establish it in Southern California. Anaheim should bid for this institution. Los Angeles is our metropolitan center, but metropolitan centers must not absorb everything. A metropolitan center without a live, sympathetic and prosperous "back country" would soon run to seed. Therefore we most respectfully suggest to our metropolitan center the justice, as well as the propriety, of judiciously nourishing its tributaries. The proposed branch home should be given to Southern California, but many reasons may be cited which would point to the advisability of placing it beyond the bounds of our great and rapidly growing metropolis. Those reasons may be enumerated under the following heads:—Moral, sanitary and economical. Because of those reasons no great city contains a soldiers' home. It is eminently proper that Los Angeles should desire to have the home established somewhere in her immediate vicinity, but to endeavor to have it planted in the midst of her rush and roar of business, or within easy reach of her gin malls and groceries, her sinners and saints, her tempter and temptations, would be but to display a sort of Mojave baldness of self-interest that must be regarded as foreign to the heart of our angel city. No spot in the county is, nor do we know of a spot in all Southern California, so peculiarly adapted to the requirements of the proposed home as the town site and surroundings of Anaheim. The health, quiet, comfort and morale of the old heroes must be considered first of all; and where, beyond the bounds of Anaheim, can a greater promise of good be found? This is a matter of peculiar interest to the members of the Grand Army; something in which the Posts of Southern California should take active and earnest interest. Therefore we commend the subject to the members of our local post and hope that at their next meeting some energetic action may be taken. THE FORAN-SICK TIMES. The Los Angeles Times of the 15th inst. California—circumstances are right and ripe, and the natural resources of the country are boundless, land values will remain, or perhaps go beyond the point to which the speculative boom placed them. The speculative boom nevertheless is a damage and only fails to terminate in blight because of the unfathomable wealth of the land. The following is a case pertinent and to the point: Last week we fell in with a speculative polican fresh from the woods of Maine. "I came here to make a stake," he said, "and I'm going to make it. When I first arrived I bought a piece of land at Pasadena for which I paid $3500. I've carried that land just one year, and to-day I refused $26,000 for it. I want $1000 for every $100 invested, and I'll get it, too. Then I'll skip for home!" Now that fellow would be just as willing to boom the North Pole as Pasadena provided the same amount of money could be filched from the same amount of boom. He has not added a grain of sand to Pasadena. He does not add even the doubtful benefit of his presence, for he does not not will he live there. So far as his power has made it possible he has retarded the growth of the country for one year or more, and when he finally lets go he will flee to the clambakes and snowmakes of Maine bearing $31,500 worth of the undeveloped resources of Southern California. The boom sporadic is a relative of the boom speculative. Like the measles, it often breaks out on a strong and well-formed body, and—should it not grow to the dignity of the boom natural—which it sometimes does, it eventuates in nothing permanently good. The main characteristics of the boom sporadic are: Spasmodic excitement, want of intelligent organization, dominance of selfishness, and an utter lack of concentration. The boom natural is not only "boss of the job" but the job itself. It is the boom that nature foments, attracts, sustains and perpetuates, one that springs from the self-evident being of vast and unused natural wealth. The boom natural followed in the wake of Columbus, Pizzaro and Cabot. It was the backbone that gave material strength to the puritanical zeal of the Pilgrims. It forced the westward line of our republic from Pittsburg to Cincinnati, from Cincinnati to St. Louis, from St. Louis to Omaha, from Omaha to the Sierras, from the Sierras to the boundless Pacific and is to-day rapidly building, enriching, enabling and beautifying the newest, brightest and most enduring of commonwealths—that of Southern California. The boom natural is the only kind of boom that Anaheim can safely tolerate. For such a boom Anaheim possesses all the essentials. To expatriate upon the wonderful and abundant natural advantages of Anaheim and its environs would be simply superfluous. They have been known and recognized for more than a quarter of a century. The world has long since been made aware of the loveliness of Anaheim—its endless resources, its abundance of flowing water, its capable and healthful mind. This is a matter of peculiar interest to the members of the Grand Army; something in which the Posts of Southern California should take active and earnest interest. Therefore we commend the subject to the members of our local post and hope that at their next meeting some energetic action may be taken. THE FORAN-SICK TIMES. The Los Angeles Times of the 15th inst., contains a singularly flippant and would be humorous article on what it is pleased to style "The Father Foran Murder Case." Forcity and fun, humor and murder, form a grotesque combination; too grotesque and too mal apropos to be sought for in the columns of such a journal as the Times. Therefore, we are of the opinion that our esteemed contemporary has been imposed upon by some reportorial tyro or some brooding Anaheimer who sought and found in its columns a convenient vent for the fumes and fancies of a sourmashed mind. Evidently the individual who furnished the Times the populum from which or of which it has fabricated its "Foran Murder" matter, started in to "fix" and "fasten" a murder in Anaheim, and—well, the fact is—it now seems that, so far as the aforesaid individual or the Times is concerned, murder! it must remain. The Times slurringly refers to the efforts of those who, at the instance of the Sheriff's office, instituted a special investigation and says "they returned a verdict of 'justifiable suicide'" whatever that may be. Our esteemed contemporary concludes thusly: "The Times still believes that Father Fauran was murdered, and has strong evidence against the theory of suicide." Well, Brother Spaulding, why the blazes don't you come forward with your evidence? If a murder has been committed and the Times office knows it, then the Times office becomes, or should become, suddenly and peculiarly important to the common officers of the law. Come, now, Mr. Times, open up—like Barkis, we're "willin'." INTERNATIONAL PARCEL POST. The establishment of a parcel post between the United States, the West Indian Islands, Central and South America is in contemplation by the Postmaster-General, and overtures to this end have already been submitted to the authorities in Jamaica. The proposition is that, in addition to the bona fide trade patterns and samples of merchandise, the transmission of which is specially provided for in the Postal Union Convention, there shall be admitted packages of merchandise of every description, without regard to the salable value of the contents or to their liability to customs duties in the country of destination, provided they do not exceed four pounds in weight. It is further stipulated that the packages shall be subject, in the country of destination, to all of the It would also some of these "It is best Express." Gosh! He claim!

It is are pious before The Herald is of the opinion that we should annex Hawaii. It views "The Hawaiian group as an outpost of the United States." Outposts are usually long-range stations. As a long-range station, however, might not the equatorial home of the festive missionary roaster be considered a little too, too? Cork is not quite as distant as Honolulu. If we must have the latter let us preserve our geographical equilibrium by annexing the former. Los Angeles is to have a cold storage institution. A cold storage company has been organized and the erection of $300,000 worth of works is now the cold storage talk of the town. If the Angelenos could only frigidize the Salvation Army, the Porcupine and Dr. Cantine, the cold store would be immediately appreciated. An up country section of the Supreme Court has decided that the boycott is a criminal conspiracy. As we understand the boycott, we are not in favor of the American edition. We were a San Francisco delegate to the "Sacramento Convention" and did not vote for it. Nevertheless, we cannot clearly see the necessity of the declaration made by the up-country court. Court ultimately are supposed to be general in their application and such as the foregoing may be made an instrument of injustice. May be made, in fact, to harass the personal liberty of the citizen. Citizens have the right to combine for the purpose of opposing the growth, or the being, of certain classes of business. And citizens do exercise such right and publicly proclaim the fact that they have so combined. This they do with trumpet and bonfires and music and meetings, as in the case of the Salvation Army and the prohibitionists. In this country the law is the only boycotter that public sentiment will sustain, but it should not be so framed that the boycotter would, could or might use it in the practice of boycotting. To declare against boycotting is all right, but when we undertake to boycotte the boycotter we contradict ourselves and enter upon illogical grounds. A pleasing fare of six years ago $100,000 profit.

Seven-eight THE BUG AND THE BEE "The International Company of Mexico" is the hi-u-cap-i-tan title with which a group of San Diego land hawkers dub themselves. This group, or company, is said to be composed of British capital, American cheek and Mexican pliability. At all events it is a big bug, and is just now endeavoring to gobble all that is gobbleable in the northern half of the Mexican continuation of California. The San Diego Bee objected to the pelican method, as practiced by the bug, and undertook to defend the interests of a certain Mrs. Burton, wherenupon the International What-is-it proceeded to squelch the Bee. Now, as between the Bee and the Internationals, we know nothing of the merits or demerits of the case. But we do know that the manner in which the International Company of Mexico is reported to have proceeded against the Bee is arbitrary, cruel, un-American and Czar-like. We happen to know the editor of the Bee also; and we know him—(her, we should say)—well and favorably. We know editor Poltz as a party whose honesty of purpose we never before heard called into question. We know editor Poltz as a firm, aggressive, brainy personage; one of those rare individuals of talent and force who are always to be found on the unprofitable side of the under dog; and though the editor of the Bee wears bonnets, and bustles, and sighs, there is more real unassayed payrock manhood in her dainty little finger than can be found in the whole corporeal fabric of the British-American-Mexic straddle-bug that sought to squelch her. PASSING COMMENT. "Judge O'Melveney's old courtroom is being cleaned and renovated."—L. A. paper. It wouldn't be a bad thing to renovate some of the old laws.

SANTA ANA.—A lady having resolved to constitute herself a muscular worker in the prohibition fold, started in on a drunk and pummeled him soundly. A good many cases of whooping cough and measles are reported in the city. The new block between Swartsel's jewellery store and the Titchenal building is being rapidly pushed. East Fourth street is to receive a valuable addition in the shape of a new two-story brick block. The ladies of Tustin will give an entertainment at Spurgeon's hall on the evening of June 28th for the benefit of the Tustin band. The entries for the races on June 24th and 25th have all been filled by good horses and some good trotting may be expected. It is proposed to celebrate the Glorious Fourth. A meeting was held on the 18th for the purpose of appointing committees and making other necessary arrangements, NEWPORT.—Measles! several little ones down. The South Methodist pulpit is vacant.

TUSTIN.—Work on the new hotel has begun. Whitson & McNeil are the contractors. Rev. J. B. French has bought four fine lots on Third street upon which he will soon build. J. F. Kendall is building a fine residence on ground purchased from J. H. Kellom and adjoining the residence of Wm. Gibson. ORANGE.—The electric light will soon "illumine" Olive Heights.

Foster and his men are making good headway with the machinery of the pumping plant near the head of the big ditch. The Masons of Orange are about ready to open a lodge, several meetings, having been held for the purpose of arranging the preliminaries. A lively movement is being made by the citizens of Santa Ana and Orange for a street railway to connect the two towns. Riverside Ripples: Dr. Greves says that he and Judge first discovered Riverside in June, 1872. Some vandal is desecrating Roald Mountain by painting signs on the rooftops. L. C. Waite was the first notary proclaiming the first justice of the peace and that man married in Riverside. John E. Wright, son of Rev. and Mr. V. Wright, a pioneer Riverside boy graduated at the Normal School, Los Angeles. Boyd & De Vine have purchased their terests of the Germaine Packing Co., will act as agents of that firm. At a recent meeting of the Board of Directors of the Riverside Land and Irrigation Company, D. W. McLeod was elected rector and secretary in place of H. J. Bailiff, resigned. The stockholders of the proposed railroad over the mountains to Bear Valley held their first meeting, at which it was ceded to incorporate the company and laid out road through. Preliminary surveys were made, though as yet no route has been decided upon. Riverside will soon gain the soubriquity of "City of Churches." It now complements four fine edifices, and within a year as more will be erected. The Catholics in the foundation laid and commenced brick work. The Catholics build four future, and the foundation already last strong and massive. As Mrs. Harry I. Thrall and children Mrs. Burgess were crossing the track at depot on Seventh street in a carriage Sunday morning, the horse became frightened at a hand-car standing upon a side and fell, smashing the carriage and thudging the occupants out, injuring Mrs. Burger quite severely and Mrs. Thrall slightly; forethe house could regain his feet and it was seized by the bystanders and ladies were rescued from a perilous position.

Vanderbilt's yacht Vidette founded last night.—Telegram. Bah, the yacht! Had Van, foundered the telegram might be worth something. Pasadena will celebrate the Fourth of July in a manner that accords with its patriotism and intelligence.—Pasadena Union. So, so; then Pasadena is to have a Fourth o' July furor and a pyrotechnic boom. In 1885 the number of children of school age in San Diego was 622. In 1887 the number was 1705. Pretty good increase by immigration and otherwise.—Horticulturist. "Otherwise" is the boom natural—an old boom—the boom that stays. Several years ago he [Controller John P. Dunn] invested $1700 in twenty acres of land in Los Angeles county.—Sac. Bee. Johnnie's first investment was two bits a month. It was in Kearneyism, paid as dues to the Eleventh Ward W. P. C. club. The investment was small, financially considered; nevertheless it was the base and root and blood of all John's greatness financially, socially and politically. The Queen's subjects at Los Angeles propose to celebrate the Jubilee at Santa Monica. It is about time Riverside was laying plan for something of the kind.—Press. Is Riverside a Queen's subject? If the Orangemen over "thar" are hardup for a Queen they might find a legitimate "Mahula" somewhere in the adjacent sand dunes. If they must jubilate let 'em wheop up a celebration in honor of Winnemucca the last. Be original if possible, and aboriginal if practicable. A pleasing fact: Mr. McGarry's purchase of six years ago stands him in a clear, cool $100,000 profit.—L. A. Ex. Yes—pleasing, very pleasing—to McGarry. There is no place like home.—Herald.

A lively movement is being made by the citizens of Santa Ana and Orange for a street railway to connect the two towns. The ties and rails for the Orange, McPherson and Modena street railway have been purchased, and will soon be on the ground. Orange Lodge, A. O. U. W., took possession of the new hall, over the Bank, on Saturday last. It has been nicely furnished, and the members are proud of their new quarters. Some twenty-five old Odd Fellows in and about Orange are talking strongly of making application for a charter for a lodge in Orange. It should be done, by all means. McPherson — During Mrs. W. G. McPherson's absence in the East, her daughter, Miss Clara, will take charge of the home. Miss Clara is a model housekeeper. Mr. T. N. Marsh, who left for the mining country, unnorth, has got where the "water is as cold as ice," and where the snow is still falling. Mr. Lane has gone up north, and left the P. O., telegraph office and store in charge of his wife. The Soliciting Committee from Orange have been canvassing for provisions. They must have forgotten that we are not interested in their town or in building up their plaza. Maybe the Orange people think we are all dead up this way, but just wait till we get the street car line and the S. P. R. R. Olive and Burruel Point — The graders are at work grading the streets on the Heights. We hear some complaint about people calling St. James "Jim Town." Well, let em call it "Jimmyton." Mr. Roberts has sold his ten acres to a syndicate from Earlham. The price paid was $5,500.50. The new firm of Taylor & Myers have taken the contract to build Mr. Shauklin's new store at St. James. Little Forest Carter was accidentally shot by Joe Watson on Wednesday of last week. The ball was a 22 long, and entered the leg, passing through, but cut no artery or bone. Herby Carry swallowed some concentrated lye the day before. Drs. Rowan and Miller waited on the patients. PASADENA — The new open cars on the city railroad are quite an improvement over the old ones.
