The Weekly Gazette. ISSUEB EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Producers. THURSDAY... JANUARY 8, 1891 The Directors' meeting on Tuesday was rather a picnicky affair. Director Ryan entered on a foray against high salaries, and amused things right and left. It was decided not to send a representative to the Sacramento irrigators' convention, all on account of the economic spirit that proviled. Engineer Kellogg was ordered to cease all work when that in hand shall have been completed. The Directors will hereafter serve without pay, and the board were endeavoring to slash the salaries of the Collector and Secretary, when they were brought to a turn by Collector Cadman, who would not suffer a reduction, and insisted on his having $50 per month. As his salary is fixed by the year, no reduction was made, and the Collector still receives $50 per month. When Secretary Gardiner's turn came, he declared he would resign his office if the Directors cut him down a single cent. Action on his salary thereupon deferred for a month, the Secretary in the mean time to prepare a statement of the duties of the office, wherein he purposes showing that it is worth all of $50 to act as Secretary of the district. Treasurer Keith's salary, having been fixed at $12 per month, was allowed to stand. A committee was appointed to interview the lawyers of the district and attempt to secure a reduction in their salary. The condemnation proceedings will in all probability drag their slow length along, to the tune of $416,663 per month, unless the sought-for reduction in the attorneys' salary shall be granted—a contingency extremely problematical. On the first page will be found an article bearing upon the recent combine of orange packers at Riverside. We are greatly surprised to notice that some newspapers, both at Riverside and elsewhere, look with favor upon this scheme of the buyers, which is nothing less than an effort to bear the orange market. A Los Angeles orange grower "speaks his sentiments" in yesterday's Times to the following effect: The Southern California Editorial Association meets in Los Angeles on tters' Hospital in Los Angeles. Here, one day last week, his soul, like John Bolyn's, went aloft. Mr. Reagan is so dead that, in comparison, the door nail of commerce is exhibiting in its vitality. Wherefore it is ordered, stipulated and decreed by this Court that Mr. Glencross, having proven his superiority in articles on hog trespass, be betake himself to Orange, and having previously provided himself with the five-foot fence rail aforementioned, he proceed to engage Mr. Hiram Hamilton in argument upon the why and wherefore of his claims for three dollars against this county—which same was disallowed by the Supervisors. Meanwhile Mr. Reagan emits a faint odor of roast pork, apple sauce. ROADMASTER WILLIAMS was up in arms yesterday at our report of the Supervisors appropriating only $50 for the bridge over the barranca south of Monliot's sheep camp. The Supervisors appropriated $150, and the figures were so written by us in reporting their preceedings. In some unaccountable manner the figure "1" dropped, rendering the item ridiculous. Mr. Williams, accompanied by 'W. G. Potter of Centralia, yesterday appeared before the Board of Supervisors and showed the entire inadequacy of the amount—$150—for the construction of the bridge. The barranca is not only impassable, but extremely dangerous to persons driving along the road at night time and falling to turn out of the road to avoid the gulch. The country, which is being thickly settled; will soon leave but a few roads to travel on, where formerly the entire country was open. Mr. Moullot wants to fence in his property, and as the barranca is only to be avoided by driving on Monliot's land, it will be seen that either a bridge must be built or the road closed altogether. Roadmaster Williams tells us he can do nothing with $150. The residents want a substantial bridge put in, and they ought to have it. The rains make the barranca an extremely dangerous bit of country, and travelers are in the habit of driving many miles to get around it. Bridge that barranca! The Supervisors have reconsidered their appropriation of $150, and will make a larger one.

For a On the first page will be found an article bearing upon the recent combine of orange packers at Riverside. We are greatly surprised to notice that some newspapers, both at Riverside and elsewhere, look with favor upon this scheme of the buyers, which is nothing less than an effort to bear the orange market. A Los Angeles orange grower "speaks his sentiments" in yesterday's Times to the following effect: There is no doubt about it. An attempt is being made by the orange-buyers to bear the orange market in this section of the State and to rob the grower of his profits. Not only have they formed an organization to control prices and to regulate the matter of purchasing the entire crop, but they are also interested in the work of sending prices down. All of this is very discouraging to the growers. We have had a hard time of it for several years past. We have had the scale and other pests to fight, and now we are busy combination of buyers who propel us to buy more, they want us to offer us our crop, and that, too, in a year when we have the largest crop we have had for some time. There is no doubt of the necessity for the orange growers to combine for protective purposes. In our opinion this organization of buyers is nothing more or less than a "cinch" on the growers, and the sooner they find it out, the better. Let the growers organize and ship their own fruit. The semi-annual statement of the condition of that sterling institution, the Bank of Anaheim, is printed this morning. Its finances are found to be vigorous and healthy as ever, the institution standing to-day as in the past the one financial feature of this section. The policy directing the management of the Bank has remained wise, far-sighted and conservative. As a sagacious money lander and level-headed banker, Mr. James stands second to none in this State, to which fact is the bank's very flattering exhibit due. To the affable cashier, George V. Horr, whose accommodating business methods bring him hosts of friends on all sides, is no small medium of the Bank's prosperity also to be attributed. The Bank's good fortune is cause for congratulation on the part of our people. May it go onward and upward in the tide of prosperity never ending. That is a very touching account of the burial of the slaughtered soldiers at Wounded Knee, brought by a dispatch of Friday last: Amid a wild and bitter storm the bodies of the thirty brave boys who fell at Wounded Knee were killed today. The cemetery was haunted by Colonel Porryhe and Major Whiteside and was composed of fifteen wagons bearing the rudely coffined dead, followed by an escort of Companies A, K, B, H, D and E of the Seventh Cavalry, together with the assisting squad from the Second Calvary. It occurred that the camp up on the little settlement at the crest of the hill at the northwest corner of the agency. The surviving members of the ill-fated Company L took looms enough with their fearfully thinned ranks. The vacancy was so striking in contrast with the rest of the column that it seemed like a cry for mercy. After the reading of the burial service by Rev. Mr. Cook, an Episcopal clergyman, the bodies were lowered into the grave. Owing to the intensely critical condition of the surroundings, with the intense chocking about the treasury and treasoning an attack that resulted in death was committed; soft notes from the bugle and the storm whispered last good-by. Very touching, indeed. During the week dispatches from the seat of the Indian war bring further details of the treachery of the murderous reds. One blood runs cold in that either a bridge must be built or the road closed altogether. Roadmaster Williams tells us he can do nothing: with $150. The residents want a substantial bridge put in, and they ought to have it. The rains make the barranca an extremely dangerous bit of country, and travelers are in the habit of driving many miles to get around it. Bridge that barranca! The Supervisors have reconsidered their appropriation of $150, and will make a larger one. THE Southern California Editorial Association meets in Los Angeles on the 13th instant. A circular letter from the Secretary conveys the interesting information that members will be expected to pay their dues without personal solicitation—all in despite of which innocent expectation there will be the usual outpouring of woolly headed editors from this section of the woods, and all on being present bent. Let her go, Mr. Secretary. THE CHICAGO FAIR. AN APPEAL TO ANAHEIM TO SEND AN EXHIBIT. EDITOR GAZETTE:—I have received promises at different times from a number of your people that they would contribute something for our Chicago exhibit, but as yet I believe nothing has been sent from Anaheim. This is not as it should be. Your people are contributing money, in the way of taxes, toward keeping up the exhibit, and they should be represented. We don't want much at any one time, but we want something every few days—a few nice oranges, lemons, times, potatoes, peas, beans, beets, turnips, berries, a little of everything that is produced. Any articles left at my store at any time, with the name of donor, postoffice and name of articles planly written, will be promptly forwarded to Chicago and placed on exhibition. The names and postoffice address of donors will be placed on all articles so that any one going through, the exhibit will see where each article is from. Arrangements have been made with the railroad company so that articles can be sent each day if necessary. Please call the attention of your people to the necessity of keeping our exhibit as fine as possible and this can only be done by all hands standing in and doing something. Very truly yours, M J. BUNDY Member Ex. Com. for Orange County. Santa Ana, January 5th. Real Estate Transactions. The following real estate transfers were recorded during the week: William Jenkins and Susan E.

D. and E. of the Seventh Cavalry, together with the assisting squad from the Second Olivey, it was sent away from the camp up to the little seminary situated at the crest of the hill at the northwest corner of the agency. The surviving members of the ill-fated Company N looked lonely enough with their fearfully thinned ranks. The vacancy was no match for the number of soldiers that were in the army at the time it caused fears to start in the eye of many a comrade. After the reading of the burial service by Rev. Mr. Cook, an Episcopal cleryman, the bodies were lowered into the grave. Owleg to the intensely critical condition of the surroundings, with the attention about the agreee and threaten attack, the usual salute of gun was omitted, while the soft notes from the bugle and the wall of the storm whispered the last good-bye. Vary touching, indeed. During the week dispatches from the seat of the Indian war bring further details of the treachery of the murderous reds. One's blood runs cold in contemplation of it all. And yet we read that General Miles, in position to exterminate the entire band, with a force of 8,000 soldiers, greatly outnumbering the Indians, was foolhardy enough to send the hostiles a letter asking for a "parley." The Indians, so the dispatchers say, tore the letter in shreds, and proclaimed their intention to fight it out. The snub serves Miles right. The American people want no parley. What they want is dead Indians, and a plenty of them. Miles has the opportunity of giving them to us. He should kill them all, or be scalped himself. Our readers will recall the circumstance of the argument on hog trespass entered into between Mr. Martin Reagan and Mr. Frank Dlengross, both of Downey City, and referred to in these columns some weeks ago, in which the latter gentleman, being assisted in his argument in the possession of a piece of fire-foot fence rail, the which, working by the aid of the falcum power lodged in his good right arm and descending upon the head of the former gentleman with great force longitudinally, Mr. Reagan sank to earth unconscious, his inability to locomote himself from the scene successfully threatening to extend itself indefinitely, when a party of his friends, accidentally becoming aware of his discomfiture, repaired at once to the scene and bore him triumphantly away. Thereafter, subsequently to the setting forth of the propriety of the movement on the part of several of Mr. Reagan's friends and neighbors in consultation assembled, he was removed to the Sis- Orange County Medical Society. At the annual meeting of the Orange County Medical Society at Santa Ana on Tuesday Dr. Medlock of Santa Ana was elected President; Dr. D. W. Hunt of Analeim, Vice President; Dr. Wood of Orange, Treasurer; and Dr. Ball of Santa Ana, Secretary. Dr. Ball made an interesting and exhaustive mortuary report, showing rather a large percentage of death rate, 12 per cent. When it is considered that one-third of this were consumptives, and they imported in the last stages simply as a drier resort, it materially alters the figures. The highest death rate was found to be from typhoid fever and diphtheria, being equally divided between the two. One notable feature was that most all the typhoid cases came from the east side of the Santa Ana river, while the diphtheria and croup were almost entirely limited to the west side of the valley. An invitation to the Southern California Medical Society to hold their next annual meeting at Santa Ana (which occurs in June) was accepted and read. The question arises what to do with the visitors, since the Brunswick Hotel is closed. Dr. Hunt NEW ADVERTISING CHEESEMAN'S BLENDED COFFEE IS THE BEST. TRY IT! CHEESEMAN'S TEA.
