The Weekly Gazette. ISSUE EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 26, 1879 A FINE FACT FOR THE PEOPLE. In determining next Saturday whether to vote for or against the bond issue, the intelligent voter should counsel with himself as to the manner of casting his ballot at the most important election ever held in our history. No vote ever taken here possesses such transcendent importance to the people, none can ever come where the welfare of the valley will be so greatly at stake. We are called upon to vote on the proposition to issue $400,000 in bonds for expenditure in improving our irrigation district, lately overwhelmingly approved at the polls. Arguing that the entire amount in the event of approval by the people, will be expended, the tax on the district will be $20 per acre, payable in twenty years, less the amount which the improved property will necessarily give. To begin with, we have two lines of railroad, taxed at $220,000, and the Negro rawhorn, now paying no tax whatever for water, assessed at $150,000. These three sources, representing $370,000 of taxable wealth, will with others that now pay no assessment for water development at all aggregate in the neighborhood of one million dollars to fessen the tax rate of those owning farms and small pieces of agriculture. Instead of the burden of expense being borne by a few sturdy farmers, who have done well to keep from bankruptcy in the past, so heavy were their water assessments, the district will be carried along by all residents and those who own property in the district, whether they live here on us. Assessments will thus be equalized, and those whose land is idle while our progressive farmers show them what the possibilities of our section are, bearing meanwhile the entire burden of expense, will be called upon to pay their portion of taxation, share and share alike. The equability of taxation being established, the question arises. What are to be the advantages of the district? The answer is: We shall have every acre in the valley brought under the best water system in the State. If Mamra, McPadden, Elgar and Beatty saw fit to advance money to defend the action of the Legislature, we cannot understand why a newspaper should become increased because the Supervisors decline to put their hands into the people's pockets and give the gentlemen back their money. If they had lost their case, who would have paid them for their Orange county patriotism? Shall advertising bills against the county for work honestly performed after the county was organized be shaved down 33% per cent and bills such as these be paid in full by the treasury? We emphatically protest. The people desire just such "contemptible" acts on the part of Mr. Littlenfield and the other Supervisors who have the good of this county at heart. We understand payment of this bill will be pleased by the claimants. The Supervisors cannot afford to pay it. SHALL WE GO UPWARD WITH THE FLOOD? What would be said of us as a community, with a knowledge that hundreds of thousands of dollars of gold dust were yearly washed from the footbills, and carried by our very doors by the winter floods to be forever lost in the sea, if we failed to utilize the product? Surely such action could only be regarded as little less than suicidal; and yet that is the history of our action of the past. Water in an arid region is more valuable than land—as valuable as gold—and yet for years we have allowed this Pactolian stream, freighted with wealth and prosperity for all, to flow unrestrained to the sea. We now propose to arrest it and hold it in storage to be used as our wants may require. We have brushed the scales from our eyes and note the possibilities of the future, favored as we are with a country unsurpassed in fertility by any section on the Pacific Coast. With a wealth of resource beyond compare, it only remains for us to do our duty, vote for the bonds, and enter upon an era of prosperity unprecedented in its character. With communities as with individuals, there is a tide in affairs which if taken at the flood leads on to prosperity. With the approaching election for bonds for the irrigation district of Anaheim we approach the flood, and the people are called upon to determine whether they will go upward with the flood or fold their hands and content themselves to trouble with the title and purpose of their actions. carried along by all residents and those who own property in the district, whether they live here on us. Assessments will thus be equalized, and those whose land has older while our progressive farmers show them what the possibilities of our section are, bearing meanwhile the entire burden of expense, will be called upon to pay their portion of taxation, share and share alike. The equability of taxation being established, the question arises. What are to be the advantages of the district? The answer is, We shall have every acre in the valley brought under the best water system in the State, and occupied by people whose trade and presence we so greatly desire. We shall see lands now valuable for purposes of cultivation enhanced in value commensurate with the efforts and energy of their owners. Lands now dear at $25 per acre will be worth a thousand. We shall compare favorably with the most prosperous communities in California, while now we lag behind, and instead of improving, retrograde. Anaheim was fifteen years ago the second city in the county. It should have maintained its place to this day; would have done so had we an irrigation district such as we have now the power to give ourselves. Instead of being the second-class crossroads town which we are, we should rival any city in the southern part of the State and have resources and advantages second to none. We have this chance in Saturday's election. Is there a single voter in the community possessed of the foolhardiness to vote against the bonds? Beaches water for irrigation, we shall have an abundance for street sprinkling, power for machinery and electric light purposes, and last but best of all, water for extinguishing fires, with pressure sufficient to reach the highest buildings. It would be astonishing to one not acquainted with the state of affairs in the past, that we who are even now availing ourselves of the benefits of such golden possibilities, failed to accept of them before. The answer is not far to seek. When Governor Stoneman convened the Legislature in special session four years ago to take action upon her heresy of riparianism, which at that time bound progress hand and foot, the day of days dawned when it might have been possible for us to extricate ourselves from the meshes of the heresy into which a decade of litigation and disaster had plunged the community. When finally the legislature adjourned and accomplished nothing, the period of the people's gloom had come again, and there was waiting and watching until the author of the bill under which we are now about to act stood up and proclaimed a theory the import and significance of which were never equaled in the council halls of the State. The Wright bill gave us the relief which we had vainly sought. Next Saturday will determine the question whether or not we shall accept of its privileges, or throw ourselves back into the rut which has been our curse for twenty years. We shall be all the deeper in the mare for not having accepted of the opportunity to get out of it. We do not think a single vote will be cast against the community as with individuals, there is a tide in affairs which if taken at the flood leads on to prosperity. With the approaching election for bonds for the irrigation district of Anaheim we approach the flood, and the people are called upon to determine whether they will go upward with the flood or fold their hands and content themselves to recede with the tide until they strand, if not upon the arid shore of bankruptcy, upon a condition that promises nothing for the present and gives no hope for the future. Never perhaps in the history of the county has a question been presented to the people for their consideration so fraught with weal or woe as affecting their general prosperity. How strange, how singular it seems, in view of the interests at stake, and this, the golden opportunity that now presents itself, that men, reputable citizens, having a common interest with all should array themselves against a proposition broad and comprehensive in its character and looking as an ultimate result to the general prosperity of all. "The monthly expense of the Anaheim Water Company is a little over $300 per month," writes "Taxpayer" in the Fullerton State. He is either densely ignorant of the subject, or his antagonism to the irrigation district is so malignant that he cannot contine himself to the truth when dealing with the case. As a matter of fact, the expense of the old water company approaches $900 per month year round. There is a Superintendent at $70, two zanjeros at $60 each, three laborers at $45 each, and a Secretary at $34, making $350 for hire alone. The debt of the company is $50,000 and $5,000 in interest is paid on it annually, amounting to $416,66 monthly, bringing the total expenditure up to $775,66. The directors receive $14 per month in salary, and it costs $60 a month to clean ditches. The grand total of expenditure is thus $849,66. Add to this the necessity of flume repairing, and the several minor items of expense, and it will be seen that the average expenditure of the old company will overreach $900. No one at all conversant with the facts will deny that this amount is, year in and year out, decidedly under-the actual figure. What with the breakages of the ditch system and the occasional damage to or possible destruction of a flume, the amount will very considerably overtop that figure. It is difficult to decipher what the "knight of the rueful visage," who signs himself "Taxpayer" in our esteemed contemporary The Fullerton Star, indulges himself in a rambling disquisition against the issuance of water bonds, is driving at. He has no desire to mar the prosperity of the district, and yet the very thing in whose favor he should exert himself, he diligently objects to. He writes— The Wright Act is unquestionably a bene watching over the author of the bill under which we are now about to act stood up and proclaimed a theory the import and significance of which were never equaled in the council halls of the State. The Wright bill gave us the relief which we had vainly sought. Next Saturday will determine the question whether or not we shall accept its privileges, or throw ourselves back into the rut which has been our curse for twenty years. We shall be all the deeper in the mere for not having accepted of the opportunity to get out of it. We do not think a single vote will be cast against the bonds in town, except its owner will sneak around through the back alleys, away from the sight of his fellows, and cast his ballot secure in the conviction of having administered a stab to the community. Not a single voter in town who places his ballot against the bonds but will feel that a personal spite has been gratified because of his non-successor reverses of one order or another. Those who vote in favor of the bonds will feel as one conscious of duty intently performed aware that the best act ever performed by them for the good of the valley has been accomplished. The bonds are the life of the district. It is the old question of life or a lingering death over again. Those who want to see Anaheim go ahead, and the valley improve will vote for the bonds. Let us make the vote unanimous. Let us put our shoulders to the wheel and give a long pull and a strong one for the good of the mother colony. Our esteemed contemporary, the Santa Ana Standard, lashes itself into a fury because the bill of Messrs. McFadden, Edgar and Beatty for $384 50 was not allowed by the Supervisors. This money was advanced by these gentlemen to fight the quo warrant proceedings, the expense was incurred before Orange county had an existence, and the Supervisors acted wisely in disallowing the claim. To say the claim will be allowed despite the "contemptible" objection of Mr. Littlefield in the premise is simply to inspire laughter among the wise. The taxpayers of this county do not care for any raids on the It is difficult to decipher what the "knight of the rueful visage," who signs himself "Taxpayer" in our esteemed contemporary the Fullerton Star, and indulges himself in a rambling disquisition against the issuance of water bonds, is driving at. He has no desire to mar the prosperity of the district, and yet the very thing in whose favor he should exert himself, he diligently objects to. He writes: "The Wright Act is unquestionably a beneficent law, but in our case it does seem that it is inapplicable to so small a district where it requires so large an expenditure to carry out its system." It is extremely doubtful whether Mr. Taxpayer regards the Wright Act as a "beneficent law," else he certainly could not conjure up such a batch of absurdities to cast against it. Throughout his letter there runs that spirit of rampant misinformation that irresistibly leads one to infer that it "does seem" that Mr. Taxpayer knows nothing whatever of the subject which he so ridiculously sets himself up to descent upon. There is another objection to chronicle against the issuance of the water bonds, one which possesses the same weight, by the way, against the formation of our new irrigation district. But its weight is scarce sufficient to change even so much as one single vote to the side of the opposition. The objection lies in the fact that, as both lines of railroad pay taxes on $220,000 worth of property, they will buy their pro rata of water, whatever that may signify, and sell it to the farmers at a certain stipulated advance on first price. This is indeed extraordinary. We suppose our friends the objectors would rather see both railroad corporations go scot free in the minor matter of taxation and support of the district, and have that burden fall upon the poor farmers, whose taxes are so low, compared with that of the railroad companies, that there is no danger of them forming a "corner" in water. That would be a delectable state of affairs, one which the railroads would hail with delight exceedingly. There is no danger, however, of any railroad "corner." There will be water enough for all. We shall have the best irrigation district in the State; the least without one single exception. We shall have water for every one in the district. And the railroad company, paying taxes on $220,000 of property, will materially reduce the rate of taxation which the people would otherwise have to pay. The total annual valuation of property in the Anaheim Irrigation District, as footed up yesterday by Assistant Neebeling, amounts to $1,617,399. Before the time of the first repayment of bonds shall arrive this property will have enhanced in value more than ten times the total amount of the bond issue. In ten years, under the new irrigation district, this property will press $8,000,000. The assessment is made on about two-thirds of the property valuation. Tire editors of this journal feel very grateful for the many kind words of appreciation of our efforts to please the reading public. Especially during the past two weeks have these encomiums been met with on every side. There is a newspaper sermon to be preached right here. Many of the gentlemen who have taken the pains to refer to us have it in their power to make their friendship doubly binding under the circumstances. We refer to the matter of advertising. The business houses of Anaheim are very generally represented in our columns, for which we are profoundly grateful. But we hold that every business man in town should see to it that his advertisement is forthwith placed in our columns. This is next in importance to voting the bonds. Go to the polls Saturday, vote for the bonds, and if you are not already a subscriber or advertiser to the GAZETTE, see to it that you become before our next issue.

Another objection to poker as a social game (although this is not an ethical objection), is that it is in no sense a game of skill. Two cards are not played; they are simply laid down, and the strongest hand wins. ABOUT THE SIZE OF IT. Porcupine The Anaheim Gazette is making a vigorous out or thoroughly cleaned and also recommending that all owners of orange and lemon trees should spray them at least twice this year, in order to stop the increase of scale so far as possible. It is further ordered by said board that all fruit stands, sucking bees, or places where fruit is sold or dealt in be carefully inspected, and all fruit found to be infected with any kind of scale injurious to fruit trees or vines, to be destroyed as soon as found, and any party refusing or neglecting to comply with such orders, to be dealt with according to the law. Your attention is hereby called to section 2 and 3 of an Act entitled an Act to protect and promote the horticultural interests of the State, Statutes of California, page 413. There being no further business the board adjourned until the first Monday in October, 1859. F. H. Keith, Secretary. Those who have been discouraged by the scale bag and other drawbacks to orange culture ought to attach some importance to the disinterested judgment of Robert Barton, of the celebrated Barton vineyard, of Prescott county. This experience, highly practical and intelligent gentleman last week spent a number of days in the San Gabriel valley in close investigation of the Rose property. He came as the authorized representative of the English company which bought that estate. He informed the Herald that he is satisfied that the scale has been conquered; that the culture of the orange will regain its old profitable character; and that he will recommend his English clients to plant the Mediterranean Sweet orange in such portions of their vineyard as have been destroyed by the vine pest. Mr. Barton made an exhaustive investigation of the whole San Gabriel valley, and is an observer whose judgment will command respect all over California. He also added that he has no doubt, as the result of his observations, that the vine pest is being successfully fought and will be extirpated. We have here what practically amounts to a positive assurance that we shall shortly attain all our old profitable preeminence in staple of world wide demand. Los Angeles Herald.

The Anaheim Gazette is making a vigorous fight to have Anaheim formed into an irrigation district under the Wright Act. CAN SUCH THINGS BE? Ontario Record. Pomona county bobs up periodically in the Pomona papers. To summer the thing down, no desire for a change exists outside of Pomona, which may be excused for a landable ambition for county seat honors. When the time comes for a new county, the population we believe will be so distributed that Ontario will compete with its older and larger neighbor for this plum. KELLY'S OPINION KNOCKED OUT. Fascus.

With an assessment of about $1,200,000, 600 this year, we shall be taxed at the rate of 70.4 against a rate of 50.4 cents last year with a roll amounting to only $1,157-106.327.

To make it appear that he has a legion of followers, he came out last week with a scarious letter, purporting to emanate from the pet of a Republican. We are convinced beyond all doubt that he is the originator of the nom de plume letter. We do not believe there is another man in Antelope valley mean enough to make such a cowardly attack on one of her citizens. We were informed some time ago that a petition of fourteen names had been sent to Washington, asking for our removal from the Lancaster office at Anaheim, September 25, 1899. Dr. Clay J.
