The Board of Supervisors have ordered a proclamation calling for the general election on November 4th. The same has not yet been published, but we understand that no call is made for a Supervisor from this district. Mr. Littlefield informs us that no opinion from the Attorney General could be obtained upon the question of a vacancy—that the Supervisors had no evidence that a vacancy really exists, and consequently, as under the Orange County bill the Supervisor from this district holds over, no vacancy is presumed to exist. Mr. Schorn has been nominated by the Democrat for Supervisor from this district. The interesting question arises: As no call is made for the election of a Supervisor from this district, can Mr. Schorn's name be legally placed upon the ticket? This is a point which, in justice to both Mr. Schorn and Mr. Littlefield, should be definitely settled before the day of election. The Orange County Fair, held at Santa Ana last week, was a conspicuous success, at which our neighboring city should feel justly proud. The pity of it is that Anaheim and the country roundabout was not represented. Our people were anxious to have a display at the Fair, and had the matter been placed in proper hands we should have been represented. While exhibits from other localities in the county were being arranged and perfected, while other sections were going ahead and getting ready for the fair, not a thing was done in Anaheim looking to a local exhibit. We do not believe the reason is far to look for—we believe the Fair Directors appreciate the situation fully. When next the county arranges for a fair, and in the mean time the proper and projected "weeding out" is consummated, Anaheim will endeavor to make up, in the richness and splendor of her display, the ground lost by virtue of being absent from the fair last week. The Republicans inaugurated a vigorous county canvass on Tuesday evening, when meetings were held at Garden Grove and Yorba. During the ensuing two weeks and up to the eve of election day, Republican meetings will be held at almost any place within the city limits properly in connection with City Council or City Commission, or complete the inquiry should under law be asked by the Pension Fund Authority. Pending the decision of this important legal problem by some court of higher authority, the delegates adjudged—without asking themselves about the legal qualifications of the candidates for Council and Road Overpass that were understood to be around looking for a nomination. Trustee Bennerchmidt, at the recent meeting of the City Solons, presented a poll-tax receipt, and—as he considered he was one of but a few who had paid their poll tax to the Marshal of this city, while the great majority went without paying the tax at all—he demanded the return of his money. The City Fathers thereupon at once proceeded to adjourn. The "poll tax scandal" would be as appropriate title for a story of the manner in which poll tax has lately been collected in this town. Notwithstanding this, Herr Bennerchmidt ought not to expect to get his money back. He is one of the favored few who are helping to support the city government with their poll-tax donations. Harry Bennerchmidt ought to be proud of that. Besides he has had $2 worth of information. So have we. SOLEMN CITY FATHERS. Business Transacted at Their Meeting of Wednesday Last. The Board of City Trustees met in regular session on Wednesday afternoon last. Present, the full board. The monthly report of Marshal Landell was read and referred to the Finance Committee. On motion of Trustee Witte, seconded by Trustee Schindler, the Marshal was reprimanded for not complying with the instructions given by the board in regard to the proper rendering of his reports. He was instructed in future to strictly observe the orders of the board, failing to do which, proper legal steps will be taken for the enforcement of the same. The Clerk was ordered to send him a copy of the foregoing resolution. The report of the Treasurer, showing a balance of $346 16 in favor of the city, was read and referred to the Finance Committee. The Committee on Public Improvements stated that, on investigation, they had found it would require about 800 feet of pipe to supply residents on Clementina, Broadway, Palm and Davis streets with water from the city water works; also reported progress in cleaning streets. Their report was received and placed on file. They were further instructed to ascertain the price of pipe required and placed on file. Justice Samuel H. States Supreme Court on Monday night. mond., Ky., on April 19th graduated at the Transylvanian College short time and after. He was strongly in favor of did much to fund though he took no part of public affairs induced from Kentucky to Leader in the Republic fired and declined new offices, and devoted in which he took his office appointed by President Justice of the United States which office he occupied death. He was the national Centennial in Ex-Secretary of War in Washington on May 18th born in Newburg, N.J. He was graduated at studied law and practiced where he settled in The Republicans inaugurated a vigorous county canvass on Tuesday evening, when meetings were held at Garden Grove and Yorba. During the ensuing two weeks and up to the eve of election day, Republican meetings will be held at almost every precinct in the county. Settlements that never held a political meeting in their history are billed to be addressed by Republican orators on the "living issues of the day." Thus the county canvass is being made in a thorough manner—and in fact that is the only way to win. On the evening of the 31st Instant, it is expected that Markham will be in Anaheim. If arrangements can be perfected so that his meeting at Santa Ana may be held in the afternoon of that day, the magnetic hand-shaker—who is going to be Governor—will be among us, and we'll shake him by the hand. Put it down that Markham wants to come to Anaheim, and the probabilities are that he will be here on the evening above named. And we expect to see a great crowd of our Santa Ana friends ever here with him. Markham has been campaigning in the north since his nomination. His travels have been, from one end to the other, a triumphal march. Let the Republicans of the south do as well by their standard bearer. And when he gets to Anaheim let us make Rome howl. The Democratic county ticket appears in our advertising columns this morning. Our esteemed friends, the enemy, desire to give their nominees the greatest degree of publicity, and consequently their county ticket appears this morning. As we stated last week, the Democrats have put up about as strong a ticket as could be found within that party. Without entering into a detailed examination of the ticket, we might say that in Towner for Superior Judge, Tedford for Clerk, Keith for Treasurer, Lacy for Sheriff, Henry Adams for Tax Collector, J. H. Adams for Recorder, and Judge Jake Ross for Assessor the Democrats have altogether about as tip-top political timber as can be found in the county. Those Republicans who believe we shall have a walk over when such Democrats as those enumerated are pitted against us—and working beside like boavers for the success of their ticket—are sily rainbow-chasers who give people chill whenever they talk about politics. Republicans have a good bit of work to do before election day. The campaign, excellently begun, should not be allowed to lag, and when election day rolls around, all Republicans should vote their ticket as straight as their conscience will allow them. The report of the Treasurer, showing a balance of $346 16 in favor of the city, was read and referred to the Finance Committee. The Committee on Public Improvements stated that, on investigation, they had found it would require about 800 feet of pipe to supply residents on Clementina, Broadway, Palm and Davis streets with water from the city water works; also reported progress in cleaning streets. Their report was received and placed on file. They were further instructed to ascertain the price of pipe required, and to report at the next meeting. The special committee on removing H. C. Gale's hydrant on the corner of Los Angeles and Cypress streets reported that as Gade had refused to move it, the hydrant had been removed by the city. The special committee on procuring deeds to property on Center street for sidewalk purposes reported progress and were given further time. Trustee Littlefield, chairman of the special committee on examination of city books, stated that he was ready to make his report thereon. Trustee Witte, not having seen the report, asked to have it deferred until next regular meeting. So ordered. A committee, consisting of Trustee Witte, Littlefield and Schindler, was appointed to draft resolutions of condolence on the death of Recorder Fox. S. A. Dennis appeared before the board and represented that he had paid S. O. Wood the sum of $5 for the establishment of his grade on Center street. The board having at a previous meeting agreed to refund all moneya paid for grades, Dennis asked the return of his payment. The Clerk was authorized to confer with S. O. Wood and ascertain whether Mr. Dennis had turned over the $5, and to report at the next meeting. The Finance Committee was authorized to purchase all necessary supplies for the City Clerk and Engineer. The following amounts were allowed against the city: J. Landell $14 80 H. C. Gold $53 50 J. Marchener $7 80 N. A. Bittner $3 50 Otto Husman $15 40 P. Goldthwaite $15 60 Kuchel Bros $10 00 Will Boyd $4 37 S. A. Littlefield $1 75 H. W. Chynoweth $81 60 A. Schneider $50 00 M. Nebelung $25 00 V. Montgomery $5 00 Total $313 76 Moved by Trustee Witte, seconded by Trustee Schindler, that unless the lamp lighter, F. Goldthwaite, attends to his business properly, his services be dispensed with. The Committee on Public Improvements were empowered to discharge F. Goldthwaite, if necessary, and employ any suitable person at the same salary to attend the streets lamps. A communication from Trustee Benner-scheilt in reference to his alleged excessive charges for licenses for September and October, was read and on motion of Trustee Littlefield was referred to the License Committee. Mr. Benner-scheilt presented a poll-tax receipt and demanded that the money paid thereon be refunded. No motion was taken thereon, and the meeting adjourned. Story of a Disch.

M. Co. Aye Cherry A GUY SMITH of Tustin was in town yesterday, looking at his political fences. The report that prevailed before Mr. Smith's nomination—that he "would not make a canvass" for election—will be found, we oppose, to have been a trifle premature when the votes are counted on the 4th of November. He is "making a canvass," and a right good rattling one too. Orange county should have a representative in the Legislature. Los Angeles county has the Senator from this district, and in asking for the Assemblyman also is, to put it mildly, rather "crewing the mourners." We want the Assemblyman from this county, and propose to elect him. It was stated by a Democratic orator, in his eulogy of Westerman at the Democratic Assembly District Convention on Tuesday, that Mr. Smith was "too good a man to send to the Legislature." This, we submit, is a good enough failing for the average voter. As the office, in Mr. Smith's case, sought the man, he is unquestionably the unanimous choice of his party—and of a great many Democrats hereaway too. The cause of the Republican delegates in this township, which was to have met on Friday night last to nominate candidates for County, Justice of the Peace and Road-Overscene, failed to eventuate. Capt. Wrede of Yerba was honored by being elected Chairman. When it came to the nomination of candidates, however, the debate right on a point of constitutional law—including the debate point as to whether a Junction of the streets lamps. A communication from Trustee Benner-scheelt in reference to his alleged excessive charges for licenses for September and October, was read and on motion of Trustee Littlefield was referred to the License Committee. Mr. Benner-scheelt presented a poll tax receipt and demanded that the money paid thereon be refunded. No motion was taken thereon, and the meeting adjourned. Story of a Ditch. FRESNO, October 10.—Suit by the city of Fresno to declare the canal flowing through Fresno street a nuisance was tried before Judge Harris to-day, and will be argued on October 24th. The defendants in the case are the Fresno Canal and Irrigation Company and the Fresno Milling Company. Eminent counsel of this city and San Francisco were engaged in the trial of the case. Testimony was introduced by the plantiff showing the damages from frequent overflows, the bad condition of Fresno street, through which the ditch passes, and the obstruction to traffic, making the street unfit as a public thoroughfare. Testimony was also introduced to the effect that the street was unsafe, as teams and wagons had gone through the covering of the canal. The defense claimed and introduced testimony showing that they had maintained the canal upward of five years against all adverse claims and pleaded the statute of limitations as a bar to action. M. J. Church testified that the canal was built under his direction in 1874 at a cost of $80,000. The witness stated that Island Stanford, Charles Crocker and their engineers came to him at Centerville with information that they were going to locate two sections of land. The one important thing they wanted to know was where could be obtained the best supply of water, and there they would locate a town which would be the most important in the great San Joaquin valley. Mr. Church accompanied the partisan different localities including the site near of Fresno. The means of obtaining water were discussed, and Mr. Standard agreed to assist in building the ditch. The team seemed to be in favor of the construction of the ditch, and he was told to go ahead. The consideration was a deal of thirty-two lots in France. The team was to have free water, as arranged with the railroad company, who owned the land at that time. By them are upon us. Present testimony is guaranteed to keep this court busy any time.

Saturday afternoon, the land lawyer, who was recently turned and feathered by a mob at Bakerfield, is able to appear on the streets. He announces that he will sue Kern County for damages in the man of $100,000 and will also prosecute the man who annulled him. He declines to say that he knows the man who composed the mob, and does not want to talk about the man who shot him while he was lying on his face in the jail. The Santa Barbara pampas plume crop this year is estimated at 1,000,000. The demand for the past two years has been good, but the prices have never been so high as they were at the beginning of the industry—$200 for 1,000. The decrease in price was gradual until 1865, when sales were slow at $30 per 1,000. Some of the growers did not harvest their crops that year, and destroyed their plants. In the fall of 1887 plumes were in demand at $40 per 1,000, and in 1888 they were sourced at $50 and $60 per 1,000; in 1889 prices were good. The average has considerably increased, but fair prices have been offered for this season's crop. Justice Samuel F. Miller of the United States Supreme Court died in Washington on Monday night. Miller was born in Richmond, Ky., on April 5th, 1816. He was graduated at the medical department of Transylvania College in 1838, practiced for a short time and afterward became a lawyer. He was strongly in favor of emancipation and did much to farther that cause, and, although he took no part in politics, the course of public affairs induced him to move in 1850 from Kentucky to Iowa, where he became a leader in the Republican party. He was offered and declined numerous State and local offices, and devoted himself to his profession, in which he took high rank. In 1862 he was appointed by President Lincoln Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, which office he occupied to the time of his death. He was the orator of the Constitutional Centennial in Philadelphia in 1887. Ex-Secretary of War W. W. Belknap died in Washington on Monday. Belknap was born in Newburg, N.Y., September 22, 1829. He was graduated at Princeton in 1848, studied law and practiced at Keokuk, Iowa, where he settled in 1851 and was elected to Rally Round Our Flag!

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral The Voice Is easily injured—the slightest irritation of the throat or larynx at once affecting its tone, flexibility, or power. All efforts to sing or speak in public, under such conditions, become not only painful but dangerous, and should be strictly avoided until every symptom is removed. To effect a speedy cure no other medicine is equal to Ayer's Cherry Pectoral The best of amodynes, this preparation rapidly soothes irritation, strengthens the delicate organs of speech, and restores the voice to its tone and power. No singer or public speaker should be without it. Lydia Thompson, the famous actress, certifies: "Ayer's Cherry Pectoral has been of very great service to me. It improves and strengthens the voice, and is always effective for the cure of colds and coughs." "Upon several occasions I have suffered from colds, causing hernias and entire loss of voice. In my profession of an auctioneer any affection of the voice or throat is a serious matter, but at each attack, I have been relieved by a few hours of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. This remedy, with ordinary care, has worked such a Magical Effect that I have suffered very little inconvenience. I have also used it in my family, with excellent results, in coughs, colds, etc."—Wm. H. Quarterly, Minneapolis, Minnesota. "In the spring of 1864 at Putnamville, Va., I was proclaimed by a severe attack of tphoid pneumonia. My physician unbound their remaining life, but one year I was not able to even attribute a mark.
