WEEKLY GAZETTE THURSDAY... JULY 21, 1887 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. "THE GREATEST OF LIVING DEMAGOGUES." The Los Angeles Times editorialized recently on Dr. McGlynn and Henry George. It editorialized briefly—curtly. On the point of a pen and in a drop of ink it impounded the whole vast subject, commenced when Adam first packed his blankets and named and located when the Lord commanded Joshua to "Divide the land among the nine tribes." The Times rolls the whole vast matter into a little pellet and dismisses the entire subject by stigmatizing Henry George as "The greatest of living demagogues." Evidently the writer did not measure the full import of the would-be stigma. It would never have been written in relation to any ordinary or mediocre man, because no ordinary or mediocre man could possibly deserve such a tall towering classification. "The greatest of living demagogues" must necessarily be a big man—a very big man. Singular as it may seem to the unthinking, the stigma with which the world brands this big man is the stamp whereby his genuineness is recognized and accepted; and until that stigma is fully earned and questionably secured, his influence is doubtful or nil. In ages past many persons earned and secured the stigma that branded each, while living. "The greatest demagogue" of their time. In ages to come, as in ages past, all who successfully challenge the existing order of things will be thus branded; but the brand, if fully deserved, will be apt to evinuate as the truth of history proves it to have eventuated—in lasting if not immortal honor. Nine hundred and sixty years before the birth at Bethlehem the Brahminial world, the then center of civilization, denounced BORUCK AND McGLASHAN. The Truckee Republican refuses to have anything to do with the American Party because the said A. P. is all Pixley and Boruck. Whereupon Boruck says in his last issue: "Bosh! That's not the reason and you know it. The paper above mentioned [the Republican] is the offspring of McGlashan, the 'Hero of Truckee,' who was 'downed' in the Anti-Chinese Convention fraud at Sacramento, March, 1886, by the firm of P. & B." Now let us shake a little salt on Mark's tale. He didn't down McGlashan, nor aid in downing him, for the two very important reasons—First: Boruck was not in the convention and, second, McGlashan was not downed. We were in that convention. We were properly accredited by the Board of Supervisors of San Francisco for the 11th Ward. We did not arrive in Sacramento until noon of the day following the evening when the convention first met and organized. On the afternoon of the day upon which we arrived the convention was to convene for the first time for regular business. What then was our surprise to meet M. D. B., gripsack in hand, hurrying to the Sacramento depot to catch the early train for Frisco. "Hello! Beruck, what's the matter?" we shouted. "Oh! The d—and thing's a fraud and a failure," was the answer, screeched out in the voice of an excited locomotive as the great organizer swept by like a gust or a greyhound. Upon inquiry the "fraud and the failure" proved to be wholly and entirely with Boruck. He wiggled into the convention for the purpose of securing the secretaryship. In this he failed. He was fraudulently beaten by the convention casting seven-tenths of its votes for Mr. McGlashan, and Mark was so incontentionally disgusted by the fraud and failure that he bolted instanter, took the train for San Francisco and never again showed up. The proposition of the San Francisco Chronicle to raise a monument fund for the late Thomas Starr King has stirred up a In age past many persons earned and secured the stigma that branded each, while living. "The greatest demagogue" of their time. In ages to come, as in ages past, all who successfully challenge the existing order of things will be thus branded; but the brand, if fully deserved, will be apt to eventuate as the truth of history proves it to have eventuated—in lasting if not immortal honor. Nine hundred and sixty years before the birth at Bethlehem the Brahminial world, the then center of civilization, denounced Budha as "the greatest of living demagogues." As a mere matter of fact, they denounced him rightly. The stigma was fairly deserved—fully earned; and, therefore, in the Brahminial world it bloomed and fruited, until it became an everliving pan of praise. To-day the branded son of Soutadanna is worshipped as a god by more than 400,000,000 human beings. The highest and the greatest measure of honor ever paid to any man born of woman. In the Roman Judean world Jesus, the carpenter's son, was denounced in like manner. He was the "greatest demagogue" of his age. He disturbed the placidity of things that were, therefore he was branded, according to Hoyle, "The greatest of living demagogues." Jesus was reviled and punished—not as a religious enthusiast, for Roman law knew no crime of that character—the was reviled, branded and executed because he, or his teachings, or the probable influence of his teachings, threatened the order of material things as they then existed. He was reviled as a political reformer, and viewing him wholly in the latter light we see him acourged, crowned with thorns and put to an ignominious death. We also see the once ignominious cross proclaimed from the very forum of the Caesars as the symbol of universal redemption and the forerunner of universal power. Some four hundred old years after the death of Jesus, Succath (St. Patrick) served the druids of Scotland Major (Ireland) as their champion "greatest dem." etc. A little later an Arabian camel driver stirred up the ruling snails and barnacles of Western Asia and the Mohamedan demagogue was properly denounced. He died, but Mecca proves how properly successful was his demagogery. Patrick Henry, Shoemaker Sam, Adama and John Hancock were the chief demagogues in the demagogic movement of an hundred odd years ago. They were right soundly denounced; they died in the flesh but their demagogery went on. It grew apace, and to-day they are shrined in the world's pantheon of immortals. Truly, the "greatest of living demagogues" is a big maul. Every community, nation and age contains him in miniature. But from time to time, at irregular intervals, he appears in the fulness of his only self, in the largeness of his soul, brain, bone and body, and he will continue to appear while wrings proved to be wholly and entirely with Boruck. He wiggled into the convention for the purpose of securing the secretaryship. In this he failed. He was fraudulently beaten by the convention casting seven-tenths of its votes for Mr. McGlashan, and Mark was so incontenently disgusted by the fraud and failure that he bolted instantaner, took the train for San Francisco and never again showed up. The proposition of the San Francisco Chronicle to raise a monument fund for the late Thomas Starr King has stirred up a hornet's nest. The San Jose Herald alleges that the great divine of other times asked $500 for delivering a Fourth of July oration in Sacramento, and finally compromised on $300; that he never made a patriotic address without being well-paid for it in coin of the realm. The inference is that his patriotism was only skin-deep, and that a grateful country paid him every cent it owed.—Los Angeles Times. Pessimistic cant like that with which the San Jose Herald is credited is often indulged in by the copperhead and the man whose business interests or timidity kept him, not only at home, but quiet and circumspect during the time referred to. We have heard patriotic sneak-thieves make reference to Grant in the same vein. We hear it in reference to pensions, pensioners, the Grand Army and Grand Army men; and as time rolls on and the days of '61:64 grow more dim and distant, curs, cowards and growlers will grow bolder. Creeping from their holes to bark and snarl, they will appear to multiply. Wondrously talented as he was, Thomas Starr King was a man of puny frame. Physically he was unfit for the musket, the sabre or the saddle. But mentally he was a warrior of the finest mould. He took up his position in the place for which he was best fitted, and all admit that he fought the good fight successfully. As a laborer in the field of war, was he not as fairly entitled to reward in accordance with the quality of services rendered as was the general, the colonel, the corporal or the private? Talk is cheap—at least, sometimes it is cheap. At all events we rarely if ever (outside of a Quaker meeting) experience any shortage in the crop of talk. Thought precedes talk and talk precedes action. The people of Anaheim are evidently thinking of a grand hotel building and, therefore, they are talking of it. Now, then, that the game of talk has been pretty freely indulged in, let us come down to business and see what can be done by way of organizing an Anaheim joint stock hotel company for the purpose of building a grand hotel, or by way of offering substantial inducements for others to undertake the work which rightfully belongs to ourselves. It is passing strange that a scheme so legitimate and assuredly profitable should lay dormant while questionable and visionary projections find no end of backers. Few parts of the county are marching Honorable and esteemed members of the community, we extend our sincere greetings to you, the esteemed gentleman, Sir Henry George, for your kindness and generosity. "HON. M. D. BORUCK!"—"An Interview with the Great Organizer," are the first two headlines of a four-story headed article which Marcus D. Boruck prints in his paper. He dubs himself Honorable and prints an interview had with himself. As out and out towers of their own horns, the fellows who blew down the walls of Jericho can't hold a candle to Marcus, the Great Organizer of the P. P.—Pixley's pudding stuffers. The American Party. Under the title of "Village Types," Julian Hawthorne will present, in *The American Magazine* for August, sketches of the more noted characters that are usually to be found in our small rural communities. Now, then, that the game of talk has been pretty freely indulged in, let us come down to business and see what can be done by way of organizing an Anaheim joint stock hotel company for the purpose of building a grand hotel, or by way of offering substantial inducements for others to undertake the work which rightfully belongs to ourselves. It is passing strange that a scheme so legitimate and assuredly profitable should lay dormant while questionable and visionary projections find no end of backers. Few parts of the county are marching forward so steadily and safely in the line of progress as is the old "Mother Colony," Anaheim. It cannot be denominated a boom by any means that is stirring the staid old place. But there is on foot an era of downright improvement and development very refreshing to behold. The growth is a natural and healthy one. The country around is filling up with industrious settlers intent on finding a solid investment and of making a home. All along the beautiful avenues are seen pretty cottages in all stages of progress towards being inhabited. The many natural advantages of the place are widely known. Her rich soil, salubrious climate, inexhaustible water supply and central position must tell in securing to this spot a fine future. The new advent of the new line of railroad will attract more attention to the place, and then a genuine boom must ensue.—L. A. Herald. A new departure in the punishment of adultery has just been taken by the tribunal of Donai, France. A man corrupted his friend's wife or the wife corrupted the man. The wife was mother of several children. The co-respondent was sentenced to six months' imprisonment, and the husband obtained a divorce. But the latter did not stop here; he brought an action for damages in the name of his children, and the French tribunal sentenced the co-respondent to pay £40 to each child, the money to be placed in the funds till the children come of age. The judgment set forth that the seducer, in betraying the confidence of the husband and turning the wife from her duty, had rendered himself responsible towards the children for the consequences that might follow, and that the children, being by the divorce deprived of a mother's care and affection, were fully entitled to damages.

Our Democratic exchanges are publishing Democratic telegrams to the effect that Blaine will see no one less than a lord. That to common folk, who call at his London lodgings, he is "out" but that he is always "iq" for "mi lord" snigglefritz or Lady Vere de Vere. Now it not quite a century since those same Democratic exchanges were trying to make us understand than B. was hand and glove with the mob and the multitude. That he was coaching the communists and dyuamiters of New York. That he was thick with O'Donavon Rosa and that he had guzzled beer with Justin Swab. That he was nearer to Patrick Ford, of the Irish World, than he was to Beescher of the mug-wumps. That he was really plotting for the presidency in order that he might more effectually blow up the British Parliament house, down Victoria and murder all the lords. At that time our Democratic exchanges affirmed that Blaine wasn't fit to carry guts to a bear. Now they assert that he is fit to carry guts to a bear. The Progress, of Pomona, is looming up. It is now turned out on a cylinder power press. Blood will tell. Progress must forge ahead. It is a bright weekly, one of the very brightest in the interior. The Citrograph appears upon our table. It is a ten-page four-column paper, published by Scipio Craig, at Redlands, San Bernardino county. The paper is typographically neat and shows up editorially in good shape. PASSING COMMENT. Samuel Schwartz vanishes. He leaves a young wife to provide for herself.—S. P. Chronicle. Better thus than formerly, when she had to provide for Schwartz. The Santa Ana Blade praises the horse: womanship of Santa Ana's young ladies, but advises them to wear riding habits when practicing. Ah, you rollicking Blade! What d'ye OUR NEAR NEIGHBORS. WESTMINSTER AND GARDEN GROVE:—The marriage of Fred Harris and Miss Bartlett of Westminster is announced. Garden Grove is to have a new hotel. At least Geo. Hough promises to build one. SANTA ANA:—This city is to have a Quaker church. W. M. Ward of Los Angeles has leased the new hotel for a term of five years. The new Roman Catholic church is now completed. Spurgeon Broa have just completed two large tanks of 16,000 gallons each. Madame Modjeska has returned to her ranch in Santiago Canyon. ORANGE:—A town organization is needed. For the purpose of discussing the feasibility of effecting such an organization there will be a meeting of prominent citizens this afternoon. Bro. Ward, ye editor of the Tribune, who has been outing for a while, is again at his post. Mr. Jackson of Earlham has sold 10 acres for $4000 cash. Dr. McCoy, with family, have returned from a few weeks' camp-out in the canyon. BURRUEL POINT AND OLIVE:—An effort is being made to have the postoffice removed from Olive Heights to St. James. The railroad camp has left, and things are not as naughty as they were. The real estate firm of Rowan and Spencer has dissolved partnership. Dr. Rowan will continue the business. W. C. Bush has a force of men at work clearing the grounds back of the mill for a reservoir to be used by the Improvement Company. We are to have an electric light. The machinery has arrived. The St. James Land Co. want a change in the school property. The matter will be decided by the electors of the Olive school district on the 25th. It looks as though the St. James company want all out doors and a land office besides. ARTESIA:—We are having our Methodist parsonage enlarged. George Star, a veterinary surgeon, wounded himself while operating on some diseased cattle recently. The wound became inflamed, and terminated in blood-poisoning, from which he died on Monday of last week. Mrs. Ellsworth has sold ten acres of fruit orchard for $3000, and Mrs. Mushrush has sold twenty acres at $100 per acre. SEASIDE CHAT. Letter from Pan.) ANAHEIM LANDING, July 20th, 1867. Dear Darling Jennie: I'll just bet that before the month is out you'll wish you taken my advice and pitched your tent long side of mine here at the Landing. My! what fun we're having boating, fishing and sailing out on the old pier singing until about ten o'clock every night. Every day about eleven o'clock we take our bath, and some of the girls have learned to swim beautifully; one of 'em takes a regular header from the wharf every morning. Do you know Capt. Davis? If not, you ought to. I think (this is private) that he is just a little bit mashed on me. You should see him help me in and out of the boat; he is—but never mind, he might see this letter. Poor fellow, he was bitten by a "stingaree" on Monday, but he behaved like a hero. Harry afterwards found the stingarea on the beach very sick, but whether it was from having stung the Captain or not, I don't know. You should have seen the shark we caught last Monday. Big? Well, I should smile. Why, it must have weighed 5000 pounds at least. Some men said that they had seen it in the bay on Sunday, but I think they must have got the creature mixed up with their whisky. Those horrid men! One of our most enthusiastic and successful amateur fishermen got a big bite last Sunday. He had left his line and book fully baited lying on the wharf, when Dell's fine setter came along and swallowed the whole outfit, bait, hook and all. Frank snatched the line and pulled one way, and the dog pulled the other way. As luck would have it, something gave way, and hook and bait and dog and Frank were separated without injury to any of the parties concerned. Your cousin, FAN. LANDING NOTES. A. Gardiner and W. J. Smith of Orange-thorpe with their families are at the seaside. The Amerige boys are loitering by the PASSING COMMENT. Samuel Schwartz vanishes. He leaves a young wife to provide for herself.—S. P. Chronicle. Better thus than formerly, when she had to provide for Schwartz. The Santa Ana Blade praises the horsewomanship of Santa Ana's young ladies, but advises them to wear riding habits when practicing. Ah, you rollicking Blade! What dye mane! It is reported that the graders on the Santa Fe discovered the remains of a monstrous mastodon.—Blade. They mustadone some monstrous tall whiskey doodling of late. A project is on foot to get out an elegant illustrated pamphlet of Santa Ana and vicinity, to be distributed broadcast throughout the East this fall.—Blade. Will Anaheim do likewise? Certainly! We have better soil, better climate, more water and no Santa Ana zephyr. All we need is a leetle more Santa Ana vim. Two Chinamen were fined $5 and costs each by Judge Wright.—Pomona Progress. If the Chinamen pungled, he did right. Whether they pungled or not, he did write, and if they didn't pungle he's Wright anyhow. John must go! Watermelons made their appearance with the "foggy" weather of the past week.—Progress. Why, what's the matter with the "warm belt?" We've been gourmandizing for a month or more on strawberries, raspberries, and sich, and as for apricots, peaches and watermelons, why we've "done gone and got clar beyant" the collicky period. The gall of the land shark is to be sweetened. Mrs. Sweet will open an office on Second street next week.—Pomona Daily Times. RELIGIOUS AND FRATERNAL. The regular meeting of Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., last Saturday evening was very slimly attended. We would like to remind the old boys that the patriotic spirit is as valuable now as it was in '62. Orange Lodge, No. 232, A. O. U.

Johnson, Sec.; Granville Spurgeon, Treas.; C. Miller, R. S. N. G.; C. McNeill, L. S. N. G. The St. James Land Co. want a change in the school property. The matter will be decided by the electors of the Olive school district on the 25th. It looks as though the St James company want all out doors and a land office besides. ARTESIA:—We are having our Methodist parsonage enlarged. George Star, a veterinary surgeon, wounded himself while operating on some diseased cattle recently. The wound became inflamed, and terminated in blood-poisoning, from which he died on Monday of last week. Mrs. Ellsworth has sold ten acres of fruit orchard for $3000, and Mrs. Mushrush has sold twenty acres at $100 per acre. NORWALK:—Fifty lots were sold at the recent auction sale. Prices ranged from $150 to $400. Of course we could not expect to vie with Anaheim's big sale. Anaheim is too metropolitan for our purpose. Our school house is to be enlarged. Immigration and other things are responsible for the increase of our juvenile population. POMONA:—The City Guards are about to be admitted to the National Guard of California. As Guardsmen and as gentlemen, the "Cities" will size up square with any company in the State. A public meeting held on Monday of last week, passed resolutions authorizing the Board of Trustees to take immediate steps to have a vote taken on the question of raising $50,000 to be expended in providing additional school facilities. Plucky Pomona. SANTA MONICA:—Two trains have been added to the service between this place and Los Angeles. Five trains, averaging ten coaches, came down to the seaside last Sunday. Postmaster E. A. Preus, and family, of Los Angeles, are occupying their cottage on Second street. Lots on Ocean Avenue, which were sold to the highest bidder in 1885 at $300, are now held as high as $3000. On Tuesday of last week a strange and exciting episode occurred on the beach of which the Outlook has the following: Mrs. McElfresh was driving a buggy along the surf when the whifletree broke and the horse turned over the buggy, dumping the occupants out upon the sand. At this juncture a huge wave came in and carried horse and vehicle back with the receding waters. The next roller started the horses and buggy toward shore, when Mrs. McElfresh rushed into the ocean, seized the horse by the bridle and brought the whole outfit ashore. A plucky performance, that! Encounter With Panthers: A correspondent writing to the Orange Tribune from Santiago Canyon describes the destruction of a couple of panthers and the encounter with them in the following Santiago style: He shot the "warmint" in a tree, but made a bad shot, and the maddened beast came down on him "like a wolf on a green bay mule," garnished his arm and leg with some "decorative scratch-work," and tried to bite a "love-chunk or two" out of his throat. A powerful dog "came in handy" about that time, and gave the hunter time to fire a second and fatal shot. The first ballet had shattered the animal's underwear. Had it fine setter came along and swallowed the whole outfit, bait, hook and all. Frank snatched the line and pulled one way, and the dog pulled the other way. As luck would have it, something gave way, and hook and bait and dog and Frank were separated without injury to any of the parties concerned. Your cousin, Pan. LANDING NOTES. A. Gardiner and W. J. Smith of Orange-thorpe with their families are at the seaside. The Amerige boys are loitering by the sea. Frank Schaumburger is down there also, but he is hard at work angling for dog-fish. Commodore Davis don't like stingrays. On Monday morning while wading in the water, he tried to emphasize his dislike by spurning one of the critters with his bare foot. The critter resented the Commodore's familiarity, and now the jolly pilot of the stormy bar wears a white rag wrapped around his big toe. Ralph Roberts fell head foremost from the wharf one day last week, and struck on his head. He was in an insensible condition for an hour or more, and during the night was very ill. It is said that he was pushed from the wharf by another person in fun, but this is denied by those who were present. We are informed that Ralph has recovered from the effects of his mishap. Not a California Bear. Anybody can catch a cold this kind of weather. The trouble is to let go, like the man who caught the bear.

Johnson, Sec.; Granville Spurgeon, Treas.; C. Miller, R. S. N. G.; C. McNeill, L. S. N. G.; C. Overshiner, W. F. Nebelung has organized a juvenile class for the purpose of teaching the rudiments of German literature and the tenets of the Lutheran faith. The class meets twice a week at Kroeger's Hall. The Presbyterian Church will be closed for the coming four weeks. The pastor, Rev. Geo. A. Irwin, will take a vacation in the meantime at the Landing. Many citizens of Anaheim attended the opening of the new Catholic Church at Santa Ana last Sunday. The services were conducted by the Rev. Father Newell, O.P., who, with Rev. Father William, has been conducting the mission now in progress here. The choir of St. Boniface, consisting of John S. Bancroft, Mrs Schubert, Miss Bernardine Albers, Madame Lecroq and Mrs Mitchell, accompanied Father Newell to Santa Ana. Among the many Anaheimers present we noticed Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Morris, Mr. T. Carroll and family, Mrs Jordan, Mr. Bennett, Mrs Rogers, Miss Ida Witte, August Backs, N. Bolan and others whose names we failed to learn. The visitors were hand-somely entertained and dined by the genial Mr. Yocht of Santa Ana. THE MISSION. The Catholic mission at the Church of St. Boniface conducted by the Rev. Fathers Newell and William, of the Dominican Order, O. P., have been in process for the past two weeks. The first week was devoted to the English speaking people of the parish, since which time the services have been for the benefit of the Hispano-American or Spanish portion of the communicants of St Boniface. Father William preached in the Spanish tongue. The Reverend Father is an accomplished linguist, speaking fluently, German, Spanish, French, English and some Indian dialects. The missionaries at the close of the present mission, which probably ends to day, go south. In all probability the Dominicans will return in October, when the mission will be renewed. A correspondent writing to the Orange Tribune from Santiago Canyon describes the destruction of a couple of panthers and the encounter with them in the following Santiago style: He shot the "varmint" in a tree, but made a bad shot, and the maddened beast came down on him "like a wolf on a green bay mule," garnished his arm and leg with some "decorative scratch-work," and tried to bite a "love-chunk or two" out of his throat. A powerful dog "came in handy" about that time, and gave the hunter time to fire a second and fatal shot. The first bullet had shattered the animal's underjaw. Had it not been for that disabled jaw, the hunter's spirit would now be drifting with the melancholy zephyrs of the "dim whitherward." One night she herd of the panther fight heard an unusual row among his pigs, goats, cows and little chickens, and went out with his rifle, to see "through the joke." He looked around a good deal, and finally stepped under a tree without noticing a large panther, crouched on a limb, not a half dozen yards above him, with optics "mantled with flame." His nerve was good though, and he stepped slowly back to his house, but did not take his eyes for a single second, from the steady blaze of those glistening balls. When he could feel his hand on the latch string, he raised his rifle with a steady aim, fired, sprang inside and fastened the door. After a time he went out and found the dreaded night marauder dead, with a bullet-hole in his brain. A panther "dies hard," and when you shoot one, it is a good plan to give him plenty of time to "gather the drapery of his couch around him"—and let him do it at "long range," too. Excitement in Texas. Great excitement has been caused in the vicinity of Paris, Tex., by the remarkable recovery of Mr. J. E. Corley, who was so helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise his head; everybody said he was dying of consumption. A trial bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery was sent him. Finding relief, he bought a large bottle and a box of Dr. King's New Life Pills; by the time he had taken two boxes of Pills and two bottles of the Discovery, he was well and had gained in flesh thirty-six pounds. Trial Bottles of this Great Discovery for Consumption free at A. Krug. The Baltimore American reports an interview with "an old-time Tammany Democrat," in which he declares that the labor vote has the best organization to-day in the State of New York and will poll 200,000 votes, 150,000 of which will come from the Democratic party.
