EVENTS OF THE WEEK. Anaheim Citizens Interview Richard Gird. Latest News as to the Sugar Factory, and the Railroad Through Anaheim in Our Public Schools—Another Petition to Washington-Anti-Past Mineral Spring-Best Culture—The Board of Supervisors-Bascalhill A meeting of citizens was held at Kroen-Hall on Saturday afternoon for the purpose of appointing a committee to prosecute China and interview Richard Gird in the establishment of a sugar factory in Bascalhill. Theodore Rimpan was called in, and after a discussion of the thirty those in attendance, he appointed F. G. Ryan, P. H. Keith, J. P. and H. C. Kellogg to do the work designd they left on Monday morning at the arriving at Chino at 11. The committee repaired at once to Mr. Granado house and were hospitably re- Their report is printed below. Committee spent Monday evening at the store and returned on Tuesday. It was learned that the Chino construction upon which will unite begin inside of sixty days, will cost $200 and have a capacity of 600 to 700 cents a day. Gird intends to construct a bridge into tidewater, and there is no doubt that the road will pass through Anaheim following is the committee's The committee appointed to confer Richard Gird, submit the following re- We invited the gentleman named on November 11th, and found him a capable gentleman, willing and able to all information in his power. Into enthusiasm on the beet-sugar ranch, while he is sanguine that in the future there will be a factory establish its ranch.

Mr. Gird is very much interested in our section and says that we share our benefits from the company will connect all sugar sessions with a system of narrow roads to take beets to the factory, which intends to erect only one at bascalhill. Trip to Framese. Tim Carrell, proprietor of the Evergreen Nazarene, has returned from a trip to Framese and the adjourning county. While at Framese he attended the semi-annual meeting of the State Board of Horticulture and was called upon to give his views of the mysterious vine disease, of which their present seemed to know but little. One man had pronounced the cause of the disease to be poor soil coupled with negligence as part of our vineyardists. He called it the Anaheim disease and said they had no disease at Framese. Tim thoroughly related the first charge, and as to the second he brought down the house by inquiry whether anyone present had ever heard of the "Framese alkali hardpan disease," which brought forth shouts of laughter from all. Tim explained that the soil of the diseased vineyards is just productive to-day as it ever was, as is evidenced by the fact that fifty bunnels of corn are being raised from land lately grabbed of vineyards. Framese's vineyards are looking well, so Tim says, but he said only a few. The white Altratic fig was shown to be superior at the convention to the imported article. The trip was worth very much to our liberal-spirited narcissism, and he is better attained than ever that Anaheim is without a peer as regards productive soil. Of Cents-Who Get It? At the school meeting of citizens in Fullerton last Saturday a statement was made that library books and other school supplies had been charged up to the school fund at exhorbitant rates. That one book was charged at $1 87 that might have been bought at $1, and other supplies in like ratio. It was also discovered that the statement of finances published in the Fullerton Star was very misleading, in that approved bills amounting to over $2,000 had not been mentioned as a liability and that an additional $2,500 of liability would have to be added to the list if the Brown lawsuit should be decided against the school district. The air was quite blue for a while, but darkness came in time to prevent bloodshed. A committee consisting of Meera, Barrogha, Amereige, Sponable, Schumacher and Browning was appointed to investigate. Board of Supervisors. The Board of Supervisors met at Santa Ana on Monday, and their first act was the changing of the name of Yorba school district. The water goes good in main jalapa. PERSONAL MELA D. W.

The Santa Ana postmaster made a temporary contract. The following signature, signed by several hundred people of Anahaim and Westminster, has been forwarded to Washington. ANAHIM, Cal., Nov. 8. To the Second Assistant Postmaster General, Washington, D. C.—Sir: The unannounced petitioner and taxpayer resident of that part of Orange county affected by the change of mail route between Anahaim and Westminster, respectfully represent to your Department as follows, to wit: First: The change in the mail route affords making Santa Ana the distributing point for Westminster and the other places along the route, which is contrary to the wishes of a large majority of residents along the line. Second: As the Santa Ana contractor has complied with the terms of his contract after it had been awarded to him, your representatives present that there are evidences of gross fraud on his part, and respectfully make that the contract be awarded to John Turner, who has faithfully carried the mail over the route in the past at a specially low rate of compensation. An Anti-Fat Mineral Spring. William S. Meade of Los Angeles writes that out something about an anti-fat mineral spring situated, he says, about sixteen miles northeast of Anahaim. There is some somewhere up about Rimson, near where Tom Scully resides, we believe, but Mr. Meade has failed to send a sufficient amount of cash to defray the expenses of an expedition, we cannot possibly harm him the desired information. However, the spring spoken of comes out of a very high mountain, whose precipitation adds steep as a wall. Great axertion is required in order to get to the summit, and no matter how well it may be brought down the hill or from the well. The liquid must be supplied fresh from the spring, and the ex- PRIMARY DEPARTMENT—EDITH L. CLOTHIER, TEACHER.

White of Los Angeles, in the matter of the conference proposed by our irrigation district, in regard to coming to some basis of settlement in the purchase of the Yorba water right by the Anaheim company.
