A PRICE AGREED UPON. The A. U. W. Co. to Sell Out for $130,000. All Water Rights, Ditches and the Franchise of the Old Water Company About to be Turned Over to the Anaheim Irrigation District—Bonds of the District Likely to Sell at a Premium. The joint session of the boards of directors of the Anaheim Irrigation District and the Anaheim Union Water Company, to consider what price should be paid by the former for the purchase of the franchise, water rights and ditches of the latter, met in the office of the irrigation district on Saturday afternoon at 6 o'clock. There were present Directors Born, Spencer, Greeley and Yorba of the irrigation district, and Directors Zeyn, Porter, McDermont, Kroeger, Schorn and Gardiner of the water company. Director Whither, a member of both boards, was conscious by his absence. Besides the officers of both companies a large number of citizens of the valley were present to take part in the deliberations of the meeting. Louis Born was elected President and Dr. Gardiner Secretary. Mr. Melrose, attorney for the Anaheim Union Water Company, being called upon this views, stated briefly that if the conference resulted in an understanding as to the price to be paid by the district to the company, the only thing then to be done was to decide upon the manner in which the transfer of the property should be made. That was a legal proposition which must be dealt with by lawyers and there was no use holding meetings to discuss the matter. The district will refer the matter of transmittal to its attorneys, the question of how it would be speedily and legally effected would effectively settled without delay by the attorneys of the district and himself. F. Porter said that a wide difference existed among the people as to the price to pay for the old company's franchise and water rights. Some wanted $160,000, some had thought men should be put in the field to interview the people and arrive at a minute conclusion. Then the stockholder of the water company should meet and the following resolution was affirmed by Dr. Gardiner and adopted: Warnin, A proposition having been made by the Anaheim Union Water Company, by the Board of Directors thereof, that they are willing to take $120,000 paid in gold coin, for their water rights and ditches; therefore, he is Resolved, That the proposition so made by the Anaheim Union Water Company be accepted and that its valuable settlement be arrived at. The irrigation district to pay all expenses of condemnation units and other legal business connected with the transfer of land property. Before a final vote was taken on the resolution, however, Director Spencer said that the irrigation district would not pay for individual condemnation units. The district did not desire to bind themselves to fight any unlooked litigation. This latter amendment was tacked on to the resolution and was married by the following vote: Ayen—Directors Schorn, Zeyn, McDermont and Gardiner for the water company, Directors Korn, Spencer, Greeley and Yorba for the district. Noon—Directors Porter and Kroeger, of the water company. Absent and not voting, Director Crowther of both companies. When the transfer is made the Anaheim Union Water Company, one of the oldest companies in the State, will come to exist. Dr. Gardiner stated that Judge Wilmow who was here a week or so ago, had informed him that the bonds of the district could be sold not only at par, but he thought at a premium. The Peabody banking house of Philadelphia were investigating the water bonds of the State, and had been favorably impressed with them, which fact has sent this class of bonds up to par. Director Porter's reason for voting against the resolution is, he informs us, because of the tacking on of Mr. Spencer's amendment taking away from the district all liability for future lawsuits. Director Kroeger's reason for voting against it is believed to be because he considers the price too small for the property transferred. The meeting adjourned nine die. PERSONAL MELANGE.

Mr. Porter signified his willingness to accept $160,000. Director Spencer of the irrigation district said that a spirit of justice should pervade every transaction. Stock in the water company had gone a-begging at from $6 to $10 per share, and now that the transfer of the property was about to be consummated, $20 per share is being asked. Mr. Sohorn—If this were a dry season, the shares would have been worth from $16 to $20. Mr. Zeyn—With water furnished by the Anaheim Water Company land had gone from $15 to $100 per acre. Mr. Spencer, continuing, said that it was necessary to admonish him of the fact referred to by Mr. Zeyn; that was not his argument. There are many people in the district, though, who would be reluctant to pay a price for this stock, which they could buy on the market for half what was asked at present. We should take into consideration the rights of others, for all are interested. It was like taking money from one pocket and putting it into another. He thought $160,000 an exorbitant figure pay for the property; was willing to pay his market price for it. Many had been brought into the district unwillingly, he said, and their rights should be respected. He agreed to pay $100,000. The district was not compelled to take all of the old companies. Many of the latter were useless and several flumes had to be watched right and day to prevent accidents. He did not think it was right that the district should pay for them. Mr. Melrose said it was a mistaken idea that the district may take this decision and not that. The Courts would take consideration the damage done to ditches taken by those that were taken. Mr. Porter thought the district had not taken into consideration the value of the ditches and franchise to the old company. He had no doubt that $250,000 could be got from them. If there should be delay in performing the new irrigation district, the water company would be the losers, and not the district. Mr. Ryan said that it was impossible to protect the new system in time to protect new orchards set out this year. The interests of the Anaheim Water Company would be served before the new. He thought the old company would be out of pocket because accepting $160,000. Mr. McFadden said that there had never been a test of the value of stock taken on the market. He had 50 shares, and if they did not be replaced he would not take 20 per share for them. All the stock sold had been foreclosed or bought on speculation. He referred to the abundance of water in this season—caused by the overheating of Elsinore lake and discharges from Bear valley reservoir, to say nothing of heavy rainfall, as going to show why Mr. Porter said that a wide difference existed among the people as to the price to pay for the old company's franchise and water rights. Some wanted $160,000, some wanted $160,000, some wanted $160,000. He thought men should be put in the need to interview the people and arrive at a minute conclusion. Then the stockholder of the water company should meet and handle upon the price. Mr. Schorn thought the price should be paid upon at once. Mr. Porter signified his willingness to accept $160,000.

John McElheney of Los Angeles, an old-time fellow-craftman of the editor of this journal, was down to see us on Monday." Mac" is one of the best printers in the country, and we are glad to know he is doing well. The County Printing. The proprietors of the various newspapers and job offices of Orange county have submitted following paper to the Board of Supervisors of this county: "To the Honorable Board of Supervisors of Orange county, California—Gentlemen: We, the underigned, proprietors or managers of the newspapers and job offices of Orange county, after examining the maximum rates for job work, blanks and advertising as fixed by your Honorable Body on the 14th of July, 1890, same to be in force for one year, do hereby positively decline to do any of the county work under the rates as fixed by your Honorable Body; and we beg to assure you that we will not accept any of our county work until fair living rates such as we require of our regular individual patrons, have been fixed by your Honorable Board—such rates as practical printers would suggest, and such as practical printers could afford to do the same work at and live." Every newspaper office in the county is included in the desire to obtain fair living prices for their work. The recent schedule of rates adopted by the board is so indecent low that a country church mouse would starve to death doing work for them. The independent press of this county does not propose that the board shall fix ruinous rates for their work. We want fair living rates for our labor, and propose to get them. When the matter came up for the board's consideration on Monday, the Honorable body was addressed by Mr. Peabody of the Santa Ana Blade, who showed conclusively that the board should make out a new and higher schedule of rates. After listening to Mr. Peabody, the board, thinking the publisher were farming a trust to fleece the county simply filed the protest and went Mr. McFadden considered that he had half enough in peaches alone, to start nery. He had raised fine peaches, and ashamed to let them rot, had dried some years ago. He was offered 7 cents pound for them dried, which he refusal take. He kept three or four meals and finally sold them for 4½ cents per meal。他 was out $14 on whole transect and grubbed up his trees and plant angles in their stead。Those trees and crops would have half paid for a canner was a disgrace，he thought，that we consume New York canned corn，which much could be canned here。Our can could含 corn，tomatoes，and other tables，besides fruit。He was in faw levying 20 per cent onthe subscribed renting a building and making a start。could havethecanneryrunningin days'time。At Pomona Cook & Langley paying out $2,000 per day。Think that money spent here would do。 Mr. Melrose，being called upon，said he had desired to showthe peoplewouldbeto theirinteresttohelpalownery.As thosepresentwerealreadyawareofthecannery'sadvantagesandstockholdersintheenterprise，它unnecessarytouseofthecannery'svantagestothem。它wasgettinglatera longspeakwasnotinorder.Heinginwhatitwouldcosttostartthecannery.

He had 50 shares, and if they did not be replaced he would not take 20 per share for them. All the stock sold had been foreclosed or bought on speculation. He referred to the abundance of water in the river this season—caused by the over-breeding of Elsinore lake and discharges from Bear valley reservoir, to say nothing of the heavy rainfall, as going to show why stock in the water company was rated lower than usual or ordinarily the case. If the old orchard could not be irrigated the owners would sustain a price of at least $60,000. If reservoirs were not constructed to store next season's water great damage might ensue. He thought the district should go to work upon them at once, and that $160,000 was a low price to pay for the water company's works. Mr. Gardiner finally solved the riddle by suggesting a compromise. He had made a careful computation of the indebtedness of the company, which amounted to about $74,223. His compromise was that the irrigation district assume this indebtedness and pay the old company $10 per share for its stock. There are 6,886 share in the company, which that price would aggregate $68,860. Adding the company's indebtedness, the sum which the district would have to pay is seen be $126,583. He favored accepting $130,000 in round numbers, for the company's works, and thus do away with all possibility of lawsuits, which would never end. Although this proposition was finally accepted, it nevertheless provoked considerable discussion. Mr. Ryan thought that it was not quite clear whether the whole proceedings could be taken without condemnation. There is a question whether the Anaheim Water Company could transfer an abusive title. It might not be a bad thing to these questions pass through the courts and adjudicated. Mr. Gardiner was of opinion that we should have an amiable settlement as once and dally-dallying had been going on for over ten months. Mr. Ryan was willing to take any fair if all questions could be settled. If a question of all strife could be guaranteed, he willing to accept $10 or $12 per share in his stock. Madge Pierce thought it absolutely necessary to have a condemnation suit. We must condemnation suit against the Yorbas and be thought it admissible to have the suits in one. He was appalled to giving up shares for nothing, and buying others at prices after a further discussion of the subject, Potatoes at 91 A Mushel. The following extract from a recent Kansas City price current has been kindly furnished us by our townman W. H. Avery: "The frinite, berries and vegetables have suffered because of the hot weather, and the price of the aforesaid table commodities have just about doubled. Blackberries, the price of which in ordinary times is about 8 cents a quart, are now 15 cents a quart by the crate and 20 cents by the single quart. Tomatoes are poor; and peaches, the home grown ones, will be about as scarce as can be imagined, and the price now is $5 a bushel. Potatoes are $1 a bushel, and apples are not only high, but scarce, and the dry weather is not only affecting one's peace of mind and laundry bill besides, but one's table as well." There is not much doubt that if an increased acreage be put to potatoes in this section the coming gilt-edged prices therefor. Republican Primaries. Not much excitement was manifest at the Republican primary election on Saturday. Only one ticket was in the field. Forty-four votes were polled. W. H. Avery, A. B. Cadman, A. L. Lewis, John Landall and K. J. Pellegrin were elected delegates to the county convention, which meets at Santa Ana on Saturday. At Fullerton, R. A. Bochanan, H. A. Ford and A. McDermont were elected delegates. Fairview sends C. A. Norman, Silney Holman and O. V. Knowlton. It is understood that the delegates are Markham men. The convention will probably send a solid delegation to Sarraments for Markham. Marker's Marseus Shop. W. R. Harker keeps a full line of everything found in a first-class harne shop. Whips, Robes, Blankets, Saddles, Carry Combs, Brushes, etc. Call and see him and inspect his goods. When the matter came up for the board's consideration on Monday, the Honorable body was addressed by Mr. Peabody of the Santa Ana Blade, who showed conclusively that the board should make out a new and higher schedule of rates. After listening to Mr. Peabody, the board, thinking the publisher were farming a trust to fleece the county, simply filed the protest and went into session as a Board of Equalization. Mr. Sorenson, being called upon to ask the question, stated that he was not prepared to say, but would probably at the next meeting after he had thoroughly considered subject. Mr. McFadden said the Fullerton cannery with a capacity of ten tons per day, had not to exceed $1,000 outside of the building. Dr. Gardiner said that a 20 per cent assessment upon the 662 shares of subsistence stock would give $1,324, enough to start time for the handling of this season's crop peaches. Mr. Carroll thought the amount inspected. The proper way to start the cannery is for a half dozen men to put their hands their pocket and put up $1,000 apiece twenty per cent assessment would not half way. Let the man come out and let the cannery. At this juncture Capt. Keith vacated chair and offered the following resolution: Resolved That all stock subscribed this cannery be donated to any company will build a cannery in town. As this meant a donation of $6,620 our people to an outside company, the pressure on the part of those present that Keith was joking or speaking ironic and she proposition was lamented down. No single subscriber was willing to fork his stock to any public-spirited (7) pany who, thus subsidized, would put his cannery. Caphnia Keith took the chair said nothing more of his resolution. The impression was rather than get the denoting business, that a 50 per cent comment he levied and work go on at by the home company. Mr. Sohera thought that if the people agitating the cannery would be built yew The Secretary was instructed to write Frank Prentice and uncertain manner could be purchased. After a further discussion the meeting joined to meet at the same place on Friday next at 2 p.m. The World Karlened.

He read an from a newspaper showing the stale market and demand for the Caliruit. A more propitious time for enrichment of our cannery, he thought, ever had. He referred to the taking of fruits, which he thought he given attention by the canning, and for which there is now a concrasing demand.

The Board of Town Trustees met in regular session at the City Hall yesterday. Present, Trustees Risser, Schindler and Benmar-scheidt. The Secretary read the minutes of the last regular meeting, which were approved as read. Consideration of the supplemental report of Expert Chynoweth, into the books of the Marshal, was postponed until the next regular meeting, on account of the unavoidable absence of Mr. Witte. Mr. Shindler, from the Committee on Public Improvements, reported programs on the cleaning of streets. He was given further power to construct culverts and make all necessary repairs on the streets of the city. In the matter of furnishing maps for the Assembler, no bids had been received from the engineers of the city, and the name was postponed until the next meeting of the board. Trustee Bennerscheidt stated that he had investigated the city water works and found that about a dozen people in town were using city water without paying rates. Three water meters had been procured, and the City Engineer was instructed to place them in three different households, to ascertain the amount of water need, so that a satisfactory rate may be charged for water. All street fire hydrants were ordered repaired and furnished with new joints, the work to be done under the supervision of Mr. Bennerscheidt. The matter of licenses was deferred until the next regular meeting. Some times the crop is left hanging trees until June; all droppings are farmer's loss. The crop is held by the to take advantage of the market, and farmer's convenience is never regarded. Apricots ripen so rapidly that it is impossible to sell the crop to these people. A local cannery and fruit is the thing for them. It would not much to have a cannery at Westminster, Anaheim and Santa Ana. A grapes what was wanted. With the Anaheim has, and the fruit possessed daily, the project should be pushed easily completion. It would be not source of profit to the farmer, but to who lives in town and has real grounds is growing with a rank luxury that speaks wall for the richness of the soil. The weeds are so tall that they may be likened to a forest of the primeval order. Cut them down, boys, and have another game. Ureta, the Mexican horsethief arrested by Marshal Landell in San Diego county a couple of weeks ago, plead guilty at Santa Ana on Tuesday to having stolen property in his possession, and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment at San Quentin. Landell went north with Ureta yesterday. There was a report on the streets yesterday that John L. Sullivan had been shot and killed by William Muldoon, the wrestler. There was no foundation for the rumor, however, and the big un's friends hereaway breathe easier in consequence. Dr. Hardin says John L. can wallop any man in the world. Attention is directed to M. J. Bundy's advertisement, which will be found in another column this morning. Mr. Bundy is one of Santa Ana's representative men, and his prices for hardware are extremely low. When you go to Santa Ana, call and see him, if you are desirous of purchasing anything in his line. While playing at a children's party at Mr. Melrose's residence on Saturday afternoon last, Ella Gardiner, daughter of our townsman, Dr. J. S.

A call for a Democratic County Convention has been issued, to be held on August 24, for the purpose of electing delegates to the State and Congressional conventions. The test for voters will be: "Are you a Democrat, or do you indorse Democratic principles?" Anaheim is apportioned 5 delegates, West Anaheim 3, Fullerton 3, Yorba 2, and Buena Park 1. Carpenters are busily at work putting in the shelves and counters for Joseph Helmens' new store, next to THE GAZETTE office. It will probably be a couple of weeks before Joseph will move into his new quarters. It is reported that W. R. Harker, the enterprising harness manufacturer, contemplates moving into Joseph's old stand when the latter vacates. Now is the time for the opening of the Hotel del Campo. The Anaheim Hotel is an excellent caravansary, but the Del Campo should also be open to take the place of the burned Planters. Mine Host Erdman is conducting the Anaheim in a first-class manner, and sets an excellent table. The traveling public will find his house a good place to put up at. Give him a call. L. W. Kirby's residence, built on the site of the one destroyed some months ago, is almost ready for occupancy. The building is a two-story dwelling, and, in its very picturesque location, is an ideal country home. Mr. Kirby is to be congratulated on his perseverance—and also in the other fact, as he informs us, that the political pot never simmers up his way. Vetter's potatoes are now enjoying the parts together, almost at once. This season's Fruit Shipments. During the past six months the Cook & Langley Company have shipped from Anaheim 125 carloads of fruit, including oranges, 25 carloads of potatoes, 15 carloads of cabbage and 5 carloads of corn, a total of 170 carloads. During this time there were 73 carloads of sheep shipped from here by Avery & Everhardy, and 29 carloads of general merchandise and 3 carloads of wine. In the past three weeks shipments of apricots have gone forward at the rate of a carload and sometimes two carloads per day. Reckoning on a basis of ten tons to the car, our fruit and vegetable shipments alone have aggregated 1,700 tons, equal, at a cent per pound, to $34,000. The value of fruit now being shipped from Anaheim will go to nearly $300 daily, and shipments will continue for many weeks yet. A low estimate of that part of this season's fruit handled by Cook & Langley may be placed at $50,000, but the amount will probably go largely above that figure. The firm have done a wonderful amount of work in this valley the past season, and calculate to distance this year's figures in their next season's shipments. Their enterprising agent, George Lombard, is a "rustler," and in his line of business is hard to beat. Nearly 16,000 sheep have been sent forward from here in the past two months. It is reported that Cook & Langley contemplate erecting a large warehouse here and going permanently into the business of buying fruit, vegetables and farm produce. This will be a splendid undertaking for the entire valley, and it is to be hoped that the report may not be unfounded. Avery and Everhardy's Lard comes in plain tin cans.

McCoy & Purnell of Santa Ana have decided to establish a branch office at Anaheim. After this date — L. W. Kirby's residence, built on the site of the one destroyed some months ago, is almost ready for occupancy. The building is a two-story dwelling, and, in its very picturesque location, is an ideal country home. Mr. Kirby is to be congratulated on his perseverance—and also in the other fact, as he informs us, that the political pot never simmers up his way. — Vetter's potatoes are now enjoying the rounds of the press, and are growing accordingly. The last paper to refer to them does it in this way: "The big potato has made its appearance. This year it comes from Anaheim, and was raised by Jacob Ditter. It weighs four pounds, is seven and one-half inches long and broad in proportion. Next." Jake would hardly recognize the name—or his potato, either. — Governor Waterman has allowed Colonel Russell's appeal from the findings of the Seventh Regiment's court-martial, which recently dismissed him from the regiment. Russell is reinstated, but is requested to resign in ten days, failing to do which the regiment will be disbanded. The action of the Governor is warmly criticised by National Guardmen hereabouts. — Ex-Assemblyman J. M. Damron of Los Angeles, under bonds on three different charges of felony, jumped his bail on Monday last. Damron had forged notes on different Los Angeles banks for large amounts. His bail was declared forfeited by the court, and a bench warrant has been issued for his arrest. Sheriff Aguirre is looking for him. Damron's wife and family are in straitened circumstances. — Invincible Parlor installed the following officers at their meeting on Saturday evening: O. R. Leadke, President; F. C. Smythe, Past President; J. J. Schaasidar, First Vice President; J. L. Smythe, Second Vice-President; H. A. Smythe, Third Vice-President; S. A. Littlefald, Marshal; H. A. Strodtsoff, Recording Secretary; H. W. Dyse, Temporary Secretary; H. C. Kallogg, Treasurer; H. C. Kallogg, Treasurer; F. E. Himmer and A. Bimpan, Trustee. After the installation a repeat was spread in one of the ante-rooms, to which fall justice was done. At the solicitation of a number of citizens of Anaheim, Drs. McCoy & Purnell of Santa Ana have decided to establish a branch office at Anaheim.
