The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. THURSDAY...APRIL 30, 1891. The verdict of the people of this city is that, if the City Trustees have any reasonable ground to suspicion that Herr Benner-scheidt of the Board of Trustees has a pipe connection with the city water main and is feloniously taking water therefrom, the Marshal shall tear up every water main in town to find the offending pipe. We do not know that Benner-scheidt has any more privileges in this town than any one else. If that connection exists, it must be found. On the first page will be found an interesting account of the conference between the representatives of the irrigation districts and the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, which was held in the city of San Francisco last week. The result of the conference is highly gratifying to the irrigationists, and it is confidently believed that irrigation bonds will find in future a more ready sale than in the past, and at better figures. It was shown at the conference that bonds are issued by the various districts organized under the Wright Act for the purpose of raising funds to construct the irrigation canals and works, and are the only means by which such funds can be secured by such districts. There are over twenty such districts in active operation in the State, covering 1,746,993 acres. Something over $10,000,000 in par value of these bonds have been issued. Over $4,000,000 of these have been placed, but there is a present necessity for the sale of a considerable additional amount to enable the works now in progress to be completed during the coming year and others to be at once commenced. Irrigation districts, according to the law, have powers regarding the issuance of bonds approaching to those of the cities and counties. They are a first lien on the lands, and are payable by taxes assessed and collected in a similar manner to other taxes. They are payable in from ten to twenty years, and bear interest at the rate of 6 per cent a year, payable semi-annually on January 1st and July 1st. The $10,000,000 in bonds are secured by land with an assessed value of $45,-. Treasury, that official says that he holds that the gold and silver certificates, amounting to $493,000,000, represent trust money; that is, coin has been deposited by individuals, and the government has issued certificates to pay back the same on demand. Possibly the fund of $7,000,000 placed in the treasury by national banks for keeping their currency in good condition is trust money, but as congress has just ordered the money placed by national banks for the retirement of their circulation, to be converted into the general balance, it is difficult to conceive why this is any more sacred. The remainder of the money in the treasury, some $258,000,000, Leech holds belongs absolutely to the government. Prior to 1885, he says, the available balance in the treasure was always shown as the amount of money which actually belongs to the government. The $10,000,000 in gold purchased by the sale of bonds for resumption purposes, was already included as a portion of the available balance prior to that date, and there is no reason why it should not be. Nor is there any reason why legal tender notes issued in the purchase of silver bullion, are any more a current liability than other greenbacks. They are the same class of legal tender money. They are not silver money, as the people generally suppose. They are issued in the first place in the purchase of silver bullion, but as they come back into the treasury are reissued for all purposes. The fact that the secretary is anxious to convert all the assets into the most available form of money, is no indication that there is any shortage in the treasury funds. In accordance with the acts of congress the trade dollar bullion and subsidiary silver coin will be reclaimed as soon as new designs are decided on. Whether the secretary should decide to extend the four and a half per sents at the rate of two per cent, would simply be a business proposition as to whether it would be more profitable for the government to use its money in buying bonds bearing four per cent interest, at the current rate. Irrigation Bonds. San Francisco Examiner, April 27. The meeting of the representatives of the irrigation districts with the committee of the Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday should call attention to the neglect of a good investment by our local capitalists. The irrigation districts have proved their right to exist. The law under which they are established has stood test of the courts in the most violent assaults that could be made on it. The bonds issued by them are secured by as strong a lion as the bonds of the counties. The property of the district is responsible for their payment, and an interest and sinking fund is collected by the taxing power of the county. The money borrowed is spent on the improvement of the property that secures the debt. In every instance in which an irrigating district has carried out the work for which it progress to be completed during the coming year and others to be at once commenced. Irrigation districts, according to the law, have powers regarding the issuance of bonds approaching to those of the cities and counties. They are a first lien on the lands, and are payable by taxes assessed and collected in a similar manner to other taxes. They are payable in from ten to twenty years, and bear interest at the rate of 6 per cent a year, payable semi-annually on January 1st and July 1st. The $10,000,000 in bonds are secured by land with an assessed value of $45,000,000. The interest on the bonds has been paid regularly. The account of the conference should be carefully perused by our readers. It is to be hoped that bonds of our district will meet with a ready sale at satisfactory figures. Louis Musson, editor of the Banning Herald, died at Arlington, near Riverside, on Thursday. As the President's train rolled into the depot, Musson, who was of the committee of reception, was seized with violent hemorrhage, and even as the populace went wild in hurrahing for the President, his soul was wafted into the great beyond. He died in agony. At his home in Banning on the preceding day he had delivered the address of welcome to the President—an address characterized by his usual literary brilliance. Proceeding to Arlington on Thursday to assist in receiving the President, his enfeebled condition, of which his stout heart never stooped to take cognizance, overcame him, and he passed into another world. Thus are we deprived of one of the brightest journalists that ever lived. The news of his untimely death is inexpressibly shocking to us. We numbered him among the best of our friends, and regarded his journal as the brightest that found its way to our editorial table. As we write the last issue of his journal lies before us, clothed in the sable habiliments of mourning. The hand of death has stayed the well-spring of its origin, and though Musson rule its spirit from his urn, the Herald will pass into the realm of all but forgotten things. We shall miss it sadly. In Musson's death the editorial association sustains an irreparable loss. George spirit, brave heart, hail and farewell! PRESIDENT HARRISON was tendered a banquet by the good people of Pasadena at the Hotel Green at that place on Thursday evening last, and a gang of the Nadeau darkies were imported from Los Angeles to "wait on the table." They waited on the champagne more than on anything else, became intoxicated, stole the souvenirs and raised cain generally, so it is said. Evidently they undertook to enforce the prohibition idea—on the other fellows, and, judging by reports, succeeded admirably. It is whispered that it cost the guests an average of a dollar apiece to get their olfactory sufficiently near a champagne cork to tell whether the wine was extra dry call attention to the neglect of a good investment by our local capitalists. The irrigation districts have proved their right to exist. The law under which they are established has stood the test of the courts in the most violent assaults that could be made on it. The bonds issued by them are secured by as strong a lion as the bonds of the counties. The property of the district is responsible for their payment, and an interest and sinking fund is collected by the taxing power of the county. The money borrowed is spent on the improvement of the property that secures the debt. In every instance in which an irrigating district has carried out the work for which it has been formed the value of the property has been increased by more than the amount of the debt, and the capacity for paying the interest has been correspondingly enlarged. The California capitalists have not shown a disposition to deal in the irrigation bonds. It was expected that, when the validity of the bonds was once established, the local capitalists would not be slow to buy them. The attraction of the good interest and the added recommendation of helping to develop the productive resources of the State has not brought them the favor that it should. Foreign and Eastern capitalists have bought more freely. They have, in fact, furnished nearly all the outside capital that has thus far been used to develop the irrigation sections of the State. The coldness of the local capitalists, however, has had some effect in injuring the market elsewhere as the foreign capitalists naturally suspect that the shyness of the local capitalists is due to distrust of the security. The magnificent success of irrigation in the sections in which it has been developed should cause the bonds to be looked on with more favor. In any case where water can be had and the district is not over-bounded the securities are worth looking into. Projects that will increase the property of the State by many millions are at a standstill because of the slow sale of bonds. If San Francisco capitalists would investigate the matter they could doubtless see their way to doing a good thing for themselves and the State. Enterprise and Business Santa Ana Standard. Anaheim is waking up in earnest. She has now submitted a proposition to vote $15,000 in bonds for the purpose of improving her water works; to build a City Hall and grade her streets. This is enterprise and business. Vote the bonds, gentlemen. Make a city of your town. Build a railroad to sea. Establish a good wharf for vessels to land their freight, build everything the country demands and you will reap a good dividend from every investment. Santa Ana debates and quarrels over her proposed enterprise, but don't do much. Pitch in, Anaheim, you have got the money and can afford to be enterprising and if you don't want to spend it our people will borrow every dollar you have got and give you good security for it. Somebody must show enterprise in Orange county. Santa Fe Route. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RAILWAY COMPANY TIME TABLE Trains pass Anaheim as follows: NORTH BOUND.

Evidently they undertook to enforce the prohibition idea—on the other fellows, and, judging by reports, succeeded admirably. It is whispered that it cost the guests an average of a dollar apace to get their olfactory sufficiently near a champagne cork to tell whether the wine was extra dry or otherwise. And all Pasadena is "kicking" in consequence. The establishment of a boot and shoe factory here is the latest enterprise to claim the attention of our people. The factory will give employment to at least thirty experienced shoemakers, and its benefit to the city may be readily seen. The liberal spirit of our people has already secured a fruit dryer for us, and now let us have this boot and shoe factory here. Let us pull together and get this new industry located here. The election for the city bonds takes place on June 2d. A two-thirds majority is necessary to carry them. The friends of the bonds should see to it that a full vote is recorded. We must carry the bonds; we need them—cannot do without them. Vote for the bonds! FRANK GLENCROSS of Downey, who it will be remembered some months ago argued bog trespass with Martin Reagan so effectually that the latter died from the effects of the boating he received, was last week fined $100 for his offense and discharged. Human life is cheap at Downey—very cheap indeed. COUNT VON MOLTKE, the distinguished German General, died at Berlin on Friday, aged 91 years. He was one of the greatest military leaders of this or any other century, and will rank in history with the great Generals of the world.

GENTLEMEN: I have been troubled with bad blood for some years, but recently purchased two bottles of Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup, which has entirely cured me. As a blood purifier it has no equal, and I also take pleasure in recommending it as a tonic, alterative, and reliabo rheumatic remedy. Very truly yours, S.E.Ferguson, Eaton Rapids, Mich. This is to certify that we know Mr. Ferguson, and believe the statement made by him to be true. We unhesitatingly recommend this medicine as we believe it to be the greatest family medicine on our shelves WALWORTH & SOULE, Eaton Rapids, Mich. Sold by D.W.Hunt.

The young men of Agnews, Cal., have for some time found lucrative employment in frog-catching, but ruined by Chinese cheap labor they have abandoned the field to "John" and taken to bicycle-riding. Some time ago a traveling agent visited Chico and Marysville, and sold the ladies there quantities of alleged "rare and desirable garden seeds." They were planted, and now every fair gardener who invested has a fine crop of radishes. The expenditure in Los Angeles this year for street railroads, improvements and builtings will reach $5,000,000. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. POSTPONED.
