THE MARKHAM HOME:
To-morrow evening Colonel Markham will be in Anaheim. He will be accompanied by George Knight, the eloquent Republican orator, and a large delegation of visiting Republicans.
Colonel Markham will find the same enthusiastic reception awaiting him here that he has met in other parts of the State. The Republicans of Anaheim believe him to be the best man for the office, and will give him their hearty support. We believe that, with Markham for Governor, the alliance of State will be administered with clean, able, statesmanlike and economical hands. Pledging him our support in advance, we turn to welcome him, to hear what he has to say, and to shake him by the hand. Bonfires will blaze, avail ring, and fragrant Markham roses blossom out as never before.
Knight is the gifted orator who will be remembered by many of our citizens as the man who spoke here with Governor Perkins in the campaign of 1874. A long time to remember a party orator, but Knight a eloquence lingers still. That is his best endorsement.
The posters announcing Knight to speak at Santa Ana to morrow evening are in error. He will be with us, as we are assured by the Republican County Central Committee.
We expect delegations of citizens in from all over the countryside—from Fullerton, Placentia, West Anaheim and Buena Park, as well as from Santa Ana, Orange and the other towns to the south of us.
And an especial invitation is extended to our Democratic brethren to be with us at the grand and glorious jubilee.
Before another issue of this journal can be placed before our readers the result of the approaching election will be known. The county campaign has on the whole been good natured, yet spirited; the State canvass has had that political spice injected into it that is inseparable from all State earth that, for any man who has interest in land anywhere, this almost analysis of a real estate crisis which would have ruined any other land than the one it might ever, will command itself as of mild worth.
As we go to press we learn that Mr. S. Littlefield was nominated for Supervisor of this district by the Republican County Central Committee on October 11th. A meeting of the Executive Committee was held in this city yesterday, to consider a petition of the citizens of Anaheim asking that a nomination for Supervisor be made. The committee's answer will be found in another column.
We doff our hat to Mr. Littlefield, and trust, if he be elected, that he will lend his efforts to securing proper remuneration for printer's work in this county. On that score the present Board of Supervisors stand disgraced in the eyes of the people.
Among the political announcements this morning will be found the card of Mr. Louis Schorn, who is the regular Democratic nominee for Supervisor of this district. An opinion has been received from the Attorney-General that a successor to Mr. Littlefield is to be elected. Mr. Schorn is President of the Olive Milling Company, a man of large business experience, deservedly popular and well qualified to fill the office.
The printed list of voters in another column effectually disposes of the charge that the Register was "stuffed" in this township. All are known. If there are any "stuffers," point them out!
LITTLEFIELD NOMINATED.
Placed in Nomination by the Republican County Central Committee on October 11th.
To the Gentlemen and signers to a petition requesting a meeting called by this committee to nominate a Republican candidate for Supervisor:
We take pleasure in informing you that the Central Committee at their meeting on October, 11th, 1890, passed a resolution placing S. Littlefield's name upon the Republican ticket. This action was taken to protect the party in any emergency that might arise from the uncertainty of whether Mr. Littlefield held over or not. In view of the fact that this matter is still one of doubt, this committee must decline at this late date to throw down the bars for party strife in a
Before another issue of this journal can be placed before our readers the result of the approaching election will be known. The county campaign has on the whole been good natured, yet apirited; the State canvass has had that political spice injected into it that is inseparable from all State campaigns. We have already spoken of our local candidates upon both tickets. Messrs. Frank Ey for Public Administrator and Coroner, Capt. S. G. Wood for Surveyor, and J. P. Greeley for Superintendent of Schools. Each is specially qualified for the office he seeks, and we doubt not will be elected.
Mr. F. H. Keith, the candidate for Treasurer on the Democratic ticket, is also a gentleman worthy of the support of his friends and neighbors. Keith has one of the hardest lights of the campaign on his hands, in the fact that C. F. Mansur, his Republican opponent, is capable, worthy and exceedingly popular.
For the business qualifications of each of the above named gentlemen, we can vouch unreservedly. Should either or all of them be elected there will be no cause to regret it on the part of the voters of the county.
The Republicans have kept up their county campaign with considerable vigor during the week. Monday night they were at Westminster, Tuesday night at Tustin and last night at San Juan. The preceding week was given up to meetings in the northern part of the county, including Anaheim, Fullerton, Buena Park and Yorba. From each precinct comes good news for the success of the county ticket and also for a full and heavy vote for the State ticket. Each of the candidates is getting around at a lovely pace, shaking hands, kissing babies and asking the farmers about their crops. They inform us that they still victory in the air which we heartily believe, for give ear, brethren, Republicans are the people in this campaign.
There are 3,154 names upon the Great Register. Some one at Santa Ana has raised the cry that the number is too large, and that the Register bears evidence of having been "stuffed." The cry is altogether too nonsensical to need refutation. Orange county is growing faster than our virtuous Santa Ana friends imagine. A rule over the country in this district will convince any one of that fact. And when next the Register is taken, we opine, there will be the same cause for our truly good brethren at the county seat to cry fraud again at the increased number of voters on the list. Thirty-one hundred voters is good enough. While Los Angeles county has actually lost in the neighborhood of 7,000 voters within her

It is earnestly requested by this committee that you give the whole ticket your hearty support on election day, remembering that one of the chief ends and objects of the Democratic party is to rupture our ranks.

THE IRRATION DISTRICT.
"Taxpayer" Handles the Board of Directors Without Gloves.
EDITOR GAZETTE—I see in your last issue that only a fifty cent tax was levied by the Directors of the irrigation district; only fifty cents. What a blessing it is not one or two dollars! How thankful taxpayers should be to the high tribunal!
The notice of the Secretary of the district in regard to work on reservoirs and ditches certainly looks like business. How long will applicants for work have to wait? Is it not farcalled? The Board of Directors have about got away with last year's tax levy of $1 and "Taxpayer" expects they will get away with this year's fifty cents—accomplishing about as much with the fifty cents as with the $1. Your "Taxpayer" wonders now easily, and how long, people will be bequiled. For three months the high-priced attorney of the district has assured the Directors of his capability of "placing" the bonds of the district. Now he comes forward with his pamphlet. Is not this evidence sufficient that he has no capitalist on hand ready to buy the bonds? Your writer wonders why did not this attorney come forward with the said pamphlet first? The chances are certainly one hundred to one against selling the bonds to capitalists. The bonded indebtedness to the assessed value stands in no comparison, as it is about 40 per cent. Capitalists will not go over 5 per cent, and very exceptionally up to 10 per cent. Capitalists will accept views and suggestions on legal points from attorneys about loans, but certainly determine for themselves the desirability of investments. But of course bonds not being sold on the 6th day of January, 1891, will have to be readvertized; and this will go on ad infinitum, or as long as the taxpayers groan and bear it, as you say. The attorney in the mean time drawing his hard-earned $416 per month.
It looks to your taxpayers as if it would be the duty of the Directors to about stop this faerce and look to business, and for the taxpayers to tell them so. What has the district got that about $14,000 should be spent upon? Nothing that your taxpayers know of except Directors that pleaded
people of Fullerton will be addressed by their fellow townman, H. G. Wilshire, next Saturday evening upon the principles of Nationalism. Mr. Wilshire is the nominee of the Nationalist party for Congress. We can vouch for him to the extent of saying that he is honest and sincere in his advocacy of Nationalistic ideas. This meeting will afford Mr. Wilshire an opportunity of bidding farewell to his neighbors. We understand he is on the eve of departing for London, England, where he expects to reside permanently: that place being to his notion the center of the social ferment, which is stirring the civilized world; and hence the place that affords the best opportunities for the spreading of the propaganda in the work that Mr. Wilshire is so deeply interested. We can endorse heartily the Nationalist's motto, "Let the producer have all his product," and can only hope that the theories that they advocate may prove as good as they seem.
We acknowledge the receipt of T. S. Van Dyke's latest volume, "Millionaires of a Day," which depicts an inside history of the "great Southern California boom." The book was published in serial form a year ago by a San Diego newspaper, and created widespread interest at the time. (Mr. Van Dyke is a crisp and witty writer, and his descriptions are so admirable, that even if one has no interest in real estate "booms," he will enjoy every single page of the book. But, as a matter of history, also, this little volume has a high value: the conditions of real and of faecal) growth are so clearly set
It looks to your taxpayers as if it would be the duty of the Directors to about stop this farce and look to business, and for the taxpayers to tell them so. What has the district got that about $14,000 should be spent upon? Nothing that your taxpayers know of, except Directors that pleaded themselves for economy, and high-paid officers and employees.
For over three months past the Directors have tried to sell the bonds upon the assurance of Mr. Wilson that he could sell them. His assurances have turned out to be valuable. His capitalists did not materialize. How long will the taxpayers and the Directors rely on such assurances? It is not plain that the Directors should look about for some other solution of the principal issue? It is admitted the acquiring of the property of the A. U. W. Co., or should be, the first step, and it is of prime necessity. Without it the district can never get in running order. Can anything else then be done as securing the A. U. W. Co. by payment with the bonds of the district?
The district can buy the stock and pay individual stockholders in beads, or secure it by agreement, the Directors having been authorized by the stockholders to sell their property in exchange for the bonds. The stockholders of the A. U. W. Co. are the men mostly interested in the development of the water system. Through their means and exertion the water system has been so far upheld, and they will easily acquire in accepting bonds in exchange for their stock instead of cash. Such exchanges are common among railroads and other companies.
To sit idle and only expand the money of the taxpayers in anticipation of selling the bonds upon mere promises, it or should be played out. Our water system must be developed, and it is high time to begin, if any developments can be done to benefit next year's irrigation season.
Your "Taxpayer" has heard it often mentioned, that the district, as soon as it acquires any property or rights, had to supply every piece of land within the district with water. Your writer holds that is correct; but not that the district had to construct ditches to every piece of land because the property pays taxes. Every landowner can only take the water he is entitled to from the district's ditches. Just like same as with roads. All land pays read taxes, but the county don't furnish a road to every piece of land paying read taxes. The undertaking of constructing and operating
