THE WATER QUESTION. The Yorbas Refer Our Irrigators to Lawyer White. The committee of the Anaheim Water Company, consisting of Mosser F. A. Korn, E. G. Ryan and Wm. M. McFadden, who waited upon the Yorbas on last Sunday for the triangulation along the coast of Southern California. The accurate delimitation of the coast line depends upon the character of the meadow by triangulation, and the latter depends upon the accuracy with which the base line is measured. This base is the first add of a triangle, and the series of triangles that are developed therefrom partake of the accuracy of the base-line's measurement. These base lines are usually five or six hundred miles apart along the coast. They are located where the country is level, and also where the surrounding hills are visible and other points in the triangulation. The southeast end is located just west of Kellogg aransas. From this station the two five-meter bars have been laid alternately on a straight line for nearly ten and three-quarter miles. These compound bars are marvels of accuracy. Over them when being carried forward is a canvas-covered framework fifty-one feet long, mounted on wheels, so as to protect the instruments from the direct heat of the sun and from strong winds. The width of the line is twelve feet. The steel bars are carefully covered as a further protection to the sun and wind, and their temperature is tested at every displacement of the bars. So delicate is the accuracy, and so subtle the exactitude that each displacement is subjected to microscopical examination. The personal of the base-line party composes Professor George Davidson, Captain James S. Lawson, assistants Premont Morse, John Nelson, Perdinand Westdahl and Frank W. Elmonds, with some eighteen employees. When the line is completed a great sub-surface structure will be laid, reaching more than six feet below the surface with a large granite block in which the minute dot marking the station will be engraved upon a copper holt. This latter needle point will be upon a straight line with a needle point at the other end of the base line, ten and three-quarter miles distant. The party are all in good spirits and are working like Trojans. The first survey will be completed probably by the end of the week, then the line will be retracted, and Davidson will endeavor to find the minute nozzle points placed at intervals of five hundred yards along the surface of the line. While upon this subject it may be said that the Professor is the projector of the Yolo baseline line, the minutest most accurate and subtle piece of engineering the world has seen. The Professor is a remarkable man, and is ably assisted with his scholarly and gentlemanly corps of assistants. That the present baseline line may supercode the Yolo baseline in accuracy there is now but little doubt, as the Professor has gone upon record as saying that he would do as much. THE WATER QUESTION. Our friend Private Charles Wesley Alms is the only member of the company disqualified as a winner of the State decorations, he having attended less than 50 per cent of drills during the year. Alms' score was 34; next to the highest in the company. THE WATER QUESTION. The Yorbas Refer Our Irrigators to Lawyer White. The committee of the Anaheim Water Company, consisting of Messrs F. A. Korni, F. C. Ryan and Wm. S. McFadden, who waited upon the Yorbas on last Sunday for the purpose of arriving at some amicable settlement in regard to water difficulties, had a conference with them at which it was decided that, after a more thorough investigation, our irrigators would be made acquainted with the exact position of the Yorbas in the matter. Yesterday Mr. Korni, President of the Anaheim Water Company, received the following letter bearing upon the subject: Yonka, January 7, 1889. F. J. Korni, Eugene Jasmin Day Stree As agreed upon in yesterday's conference, talked the matter over with the Yorbas viz. with Dan Marcos, Vincent and David Their answer is that they could enter into compact with a committee possessing executive powers, but they might commit themselves in their suit now pending in court. In order to avoid any false stipulation on their part in so important a matter, they wish it referred to and settled by their attorneys, the Hanna Stephen M. White and Del Ville, who are engaged for this particular case and well acquainted with all the details. They profess themselves willing to sell all the land and water right, the Anaheim folks may covet at a reasonable price. They claim water sufficiency not only for the lower land now irrigated and irrigated from the Yorba ditch but also for the mesa on the second-class land, the exact amount required they cannot state; an adjustment by disintergrated experts they will not open. I am convinced that without Mr. White, in whom the Yorbas place their most implicit confidence, no adjustment can be effected, but with and through him it will be no difficult matter, provided you, or the people you represent, are in earnest to reach a fair settlement. The few Mexican property owners depend upon and will go with the Yorbas; the non-Mexican settlers are a unit for Capt. Wrede's proposition, but all will stand shoulder to shoulder if our common rights are attacked. Respectfully yours, Geo. Stanhooven, Secy. FULLERTON NOTES. Improvements Wooden Wedding Wild Grain Other News. EVENT GAZETTE—The Fullerton Land and Fruit Company have sold to T. S. Grimshaw the strip of land along the railroad east of the depot, 600 feet long by 45 wide, for $1,200. Mr. Grimshaw intends creating thereon a planning and grist mill, also to put a humber yard on the same. Lumber is on the ground for Mr. Holcomb's new cottage to be erected in block 20. Mr. Harrows, formerly of Maschera, Iowa, will soon commence a residence to cost $3,000 on his land purchased of Mr. McDermont. Our streets were never in better condition and it is a piece to take a drive through any part of the Fullerton road district. The wooden welding of Mr and Mrs J. Wagner of Placetta was largely attended by people from Anaheim and this vicinity. Huaman has 28 and Corporal E.F. Kellogg 28. Lieutenant Gale and Private J.F. Beehler have each 26, and Private Alfred S. Pigott comes around with the same score. Corporal Browning and private Oscar Laudeko, W.W. Weaver and Ralph Blair have each 25, and are thus within the third-class limit, which comprises marksmen making a percentage of not less than 50, nor more than 80. They are entitled to receive the Bronze Bar attached to the marksman's badge. Our friend Private Charles Wesley Alma is the only member of the company disqualified as a winner of the State decorations, he having attended less than 50 per cent of drills during the year. Alma's score was 34, next to the highest in the company. Exports and Imports.

The first intermediate pupils who attend Miss Power's room will remain where they are, though sending west of Palm street. The primary department in the new building will embrace three years of work corresponding to Miss Clother's classes and the lower grade in Miss Barton's room. Miss Mary Baker, who has been doing very efficient work in Fairview for the past four months, has been employed as Principal Mrs. Maade has been engaged for the primary department.

HE BASE LINE: Mistletoe Professor Davidson and His Family Near Camp Coloma. A representative of this journal paid a visit to the base line on Monday morning. The first survey with compound bars showed such remarkable results that the base line has now reached a point some miles beyond Buona Park. In a low day the base will have been measured and that a survey will be undertaken to compare results with the first, after which a third survey may be executed. This base line is a very important work connected with the vineyard. New Vineyards - The Orange Crop Irrigation District. Editor Gazette — J. W. Hinton, Esq., was down from Los Angeles last week, looking over his possessions at the Olinda farm, and decided to plant out ten acres in Muscat vine as an experiment. He proposes to send North for cuttings. If his vineyard proves a success there will be many replanted next year. R. J. Northain also proposes to plant a vineyard this year. We hope that both of these vineyards may demonstrate that the disease has run its course and that it is safe to plant again. There are preparations being made for the next year's vineyard.

Speaking of beet-sugar factories the Los Angeles Herald says: As a matter of fact Los Angeles county ought to have half a dozen factories. There should be one at Santa Ana, one at Anaheim, one at Compton, one at the Palm, and one in the San Fernando Valley. Burbank would be an excellent place for one. These would extract the crude sugar from the beets and there would be a central refinery in Los Angeles to work this into sugar. On the first page of this issue will be found a letter addressed to the Board of Supervisors by J. De Barth Shorb of San Gabriel in regard to the disease which has attacked the vines of this State. He is of opinion that the disease is caused by a fungus of some sort, and asks for aid in the good work he is doing with the help of an expert furnished by the State Viticultural Commission. Supervisors Rans and Martin reported on Saturday, in the matter of the Sandwich bridge, built by the California Bridge Company, that it was built according to plans and specifications with the exception that the plank flooring does not reach the joints on the first, second and third span; also that the joists do not in all cases have faults. Our Sugar Meets of More than Standard Sweetness. From the Los Angeles Herald. For years it has been known that the grapes of Los Angeles county have a larger proportion of saccharine matter than those of any other portion of the State. It is this fact which has given the pre-eminence to our sweet wines and which has prevented us from making the light elastics of the Sonoma and Napa valleys. The presumption is therefore conclusive that the same rank richness and depth of soil which so impregnate our grapes with saccharine properties will do the same kindly office by our boats. In size they are approached by those of no region of earth outside of other favored regions of Southern California. With the ability to raise beets of more than standard sweetness and of phenomenal size we shall at once begin to grow them, doubtless to our signal profit. Times Annual, January 1st. The junction of the Southern Pacific and California Southern Railroads, where the line leaves the main line to Trust City, is situated two miles south of Anaheim, in the center of a large agricultural plain. Several well-to-do farmers are located here. Walnuts and the Tokay grapes are grown perfection. While this is but an embryo town as yet, it is destined to become one of the most important places in the Santa Ana valley. It already has six daily passenger trains passing each way through it, and is only one hour's ride from Los Angeles. It has large acreage yet to be had around it, soil of an excellent character. A dispatch from Newman, San Joaquin county, dated last Saturday, says: A special train with nearly fifty passengers left this place this morning to attend an irrigation meeting at Tracy. The object is to form districts of irrigation under the Wright bill, taking water from the San Joaquin river at or near White's bridge, in Freno county, running north to Tracy, the distance being about 180 miles. A great deal of enthusiasm is shown among the farmers of this section. Bushline's Arithmetic Salve.
