Our esteemed contemporary, the Santa Ana Blade, which—inconceivable as it may seem—favors paying Wall, Jones and Bishop $10,000 for a furnigating patent which those competent to judge declare they have no moral or legal right to, and for which we believe they should not be paid a dollar, quotes our article published last week in reference thereto, and proceeds to eulighten us disingenuously as follows: Our brother of THE GAZETTE is quite as brave as Supervisor Armor, if not a little braver. Supervisor Armor takes issue with the Superior Court and the Blade, while THE GAZETTE would down the United States Government. Don’t bother, we tried that once, and the Government got the best of us. The Government has awarded Messrs. Wall, Jones and Bishop a patent, and until it patient has been called the evidence and the power are in their favor, and whenever the patentees we proper to punish those who are infringing the law will be on their side. For that reason, and that our fruit-growers may have the undisputed right to use their discovery, call it “twilight patent” or whatever you please, the Blade believes that the $10,000 asked by them would be well expended by the fruit-growers of Southern California. Could the evidence legally that amount out of their several treasures we would be in favor of it, but as we do not believe the law will permit it we do want to see the amount raised in some way and the patent made free to all. Whether or not the “evidence and power” be seemingly on the side of these money-making patentees is a matter to which we are profoundly indifferent. If this patent was secured through fraud it cannot stand the test of the courts, and the courts are the tribunals, we opine, to睁亮 upon the point of “evidence and power.” Whether these men have the right to levy tribute upon our orchardists for the use of a process of fomigation discovered by Government officials commissioned for that very purpose, is the question which we are dealing with. The mere possession of “patent rights” guarantees them nothing, or next to nothing. If the patent has been granted through fraud—which appears likely according to the evidence before us—the courts are at hand speedily to rectify the wrong. Let us see how it came about that these money-grasping patentees secured this patent. The orchardists are prepared to show, as stated in Prof. Goquillett’s letter, printed elsewhere, that— (1.) Neither of the patentees were the vessel arrived at the latter port. The vessel will be brought back to San Diego, and subjected to fines, and perhaps confiscation of her cargo. The question of the status of the insurgent craft is as yet somewhat unsettled. There is great excitement at Iquique over the decision of the American Admiral to take the Itata without allowing the discharge of her arms and ammunition. The press is very bitter, and considers that the United States does not recognize the cradle of republican ideas. It comments on the grave error in thus indirectly assisting the dictator. El Nacional in an editorial says: “We know we have the symprythy of the people of America, also of the people of all other civilized nations, but the act of the United States Government against a weaker power, in arms for its liberties and for its rights, is not in harmony with the traditions of that Government. Let Americans take our ships and our arms, but let them reflect that they leave unailed in the hearts of three million men the sentiment of having been deceived in their hopes and of having lost faith in the nobleness of mind and liberality of sentiment of the Government at Washington.” Our sympathies may be with the insurgents in their desperate fight for liberty, but we want the Itata back here to answer for the violation of our laws. The citizens of Centralia are somewhat exercised over the division of their school district. Some four or five years ago the district was bonded, by order of the Supervisors of Los Angeles county, for $1,000. These were purchased by a San Francisco corporation, they paying a premium for them, by reason of the good security offered. Recently the Board of Supervisor of this county ordered the formation of a new school district at Buona Park, the great bulk of the territory being derived from the Centralia district. In relation thereto, a Centralia citizen asks the following questions regarding the division of the district: Does the formation of Buona Park district relieve the inhabitants thereof, of the payment of their proportion of the original bonds, and, if so, is it just that the people remaining in the old district should be saddled with a double taxation by reason of such relief? As the whole of the district as it then stood was pledged as security for the payment of the bonds; are the Board of Supervisors justifiable in reducing the amount of security which these bond-holders were given, say about one-half, and without any notice whatsoever given to the bond-holders? that it is meet and properly credit them. Big Irrigation Plan The Arrowhead Reservoir corporated under the laws of 24 months since by Cincinnati week purchased a reservoir mountains twelve miles north nardino and announced that push work on its construction possible. The company has $1,000,000. James Gamble Judge is President and general manager Ehrman is Secretary. Talists are James E. Moone Kilgour, Henry Lewis, Col Anderson & Ellis and M. Cincinnati. Only a small area is held in this State by M. Ties. A large amount of theft taken, which will be paid rapidly as the money is needed parties stand ready to take nocessary. Probably $500,000 will within a year, which will enable pany to commence the delivery. The system consists of two of the Bear Valley Company expects to store water to six acres of land lying between Pomona and Chino, and mountains on the north and south. The system is adopted by the Bear Valley has water rights calling for irrigate on a basis of one inch San Bernardino feels jubilant nouncement that the work in mence on the system. The irrigation districts under W be stimulated by this work. In San Bernardino county less trouble to sell bonds for pipe lines, etc. With public confidence in those securing stronger daily, and the peopletiquely happy. The New Tax Plan The following are the provisions of the new semi-annual Sec. 3746. Within ten days script of the “Duplicate Assay The Tax Collector must specify: 1. That the taxes on all per se secured by real property and taxes on all real property w payable on the first Monday will be delinquent on the L November next thereafter. is the question which we are dealing with. The mere possession of "patent rights" guarantees them nothing, or next to nothing. If the patent has been granted through fraud—which appears likely according to the evidence before us—the courts are at hand speedily to rectify the wrong. Let us see how it came about that these money-grapping patentees secured this patent. The orchardists are prepared to show, as stated in Prof. Coquillett's letter, printed elsewhere, that— (1.) Neither of the patentees were the first to use hydrocyanic acid gas for the destruction of insects on trees. (2.) Neither of them were the first to discover that the gas is more liable to injure the tree when used during the day than during the night. (3.) Neither of them were the first to use the gas at night. (4.) Neither of them were the first to use a black tent. This being so—and we have not a particle of doubt about it—how in the name of common sense could the patent have been granted? There is but one explanation. With all the facts before it, the Government would certainly not have granted it. Under the circumstances, what jury in this country would convict a man for fumigating his trees to save them from destruction—using the very process, too, which the Government was presumed to have perfected for his benefit and that of the people? Not one. That greedy and exacting patentees should come forward and claim a royalty for a thing to which they have no legal or moral right is so outrageous it borders upon downright theft. We are surprised that the Blade should countenance so glaring an outrage. Let me attention be paid the alleged patent. Let the fumigation go on whenever necessary, and let this lot of money-grabbing patentees bring suit against the orchardists for "infringement" of their rights if they dare. We shall see then where the "evidence and power" comes in. Let them whistle for their patent, and let the orchardists fumigate every mother's son of a scale that shows his measly head, Wall, Jones & Bishop to the contrary and notwithstanding. As a fitting termination of this controversy, we print the following letter, written by the late Dr. Thomas Spencer a few hours before his untimely death, and received by us on Tuesday afternoon: EDITOR GAZETTE.—I see from the proceedings of the Board of Supervisors that the matter of purchasing the county right of Jones, Wall & Co.'s patent fumigating process has been referred to the District Attorney. Why our government should issue such a patent is a mystery, when it is known that the ingredients of the process were the discovery of a gentleman in the employ of the Government, delegated expressly for the purpose of finding a remedy for the red scale. Under the circumstances one is constrained to believe that the conscience was stretched and excessingly lengthened, or actual fraud practiced in ob- A Gentleman at Covina, writing to our esteemed contemporary, the Azusa Ponomotropic, upon our article in reference to the petition of the Southern Pacific Railroad to be set out of our irrigation district, declares we seek to raise a "false issue" in irrigation matters, with the railroad at the little end of it. As we seek to do nothing of the kind, and as the Covina gentleman evidently doesn't know what he is talking about, a further consideration of his communication is referred to the waste basket. To morrow afternoon the schools let out for the summer vacation, which will extend questions regarding the division of the district: Does the formation of Buena Park district relieve the inhabitants thereof, of the payment of their proportion of the original bonds, and if so, it just that the people remaining in the old district should be saddled with a double taxation by reason of such relief? As the whole of the district as it then stood was pledged as security for the payment of the bonds; are the Board of Supervisors justifiable in reducing the amount of security which these bond-holders were given, say about one-half, and without any notice whatever given to the bond-holders? The formation of the Buena Park district does not relieve such residents as may have been taxpayers in the Centralia district from their just proportion of liability. Here in Anaheim our district was divided and Fullerton district organized under similar circumstances. While our district was divided, there was no curtailment of the liability as it existed at the time of its issuance of the bonds. Buena Park is entitled to a school district; it is too far for their children to walk to the Centralia school, but the division of the district does not relieve them of their portion of the liability incurred in building the Centralia schoolhouse. SUNDAY'S edition of the San Francisco Chronicle was a splendid issue of thirty-two pages, devoted to a comprehensive resume of the irrigation interests of the State, including opinions from leading bankers and capitalists on the availability of bonds for investment and a description of the various irrigation districts of the State, prominent among which our district stands out in the full glory that attaches to it as the mother of all irrigating enterprises in the State. The paper contains among its numerous illustrations two views of Anaheim scenery, one of them being a picture of Mr. Ryan's residence at Brooksharat. The edition is of great value to irrigators and will undoubtedly help along the cause of irrigation tremendous. Every irrigator should procure a copy, read it and preserve it for future reference. The description of our district we have taken the liberty of reprinting it on the first page. A Gentleman at Covina, writing to our esteemed contemporary, the Azusa Ponomotropic, upon our article in reference to the petition of the Southern Pacific Railroad to be set out of our irrigation district, declares we seek to raise a "false issue" in irrigation matters, with the railroad at the little end of it.

EDITOR GAZETTE.—I see from the proceedings of the Board of Supervisors that the matter of purchasing the county right of Jones, Wall & Co.'s patent fumigating process has been referred to the District Attorney. Why our government should issue such a patent is a mystery, when it is known that the ingredients of the process were the discovery of a gentleman in the employ of the Government, delegated expressly for the purpose of finding a remedy for the red scale. Under the circumstances one is constrained to believe that the conscience was atroced and exceedingly lengthened, or actual fraud practiced in obtaining the same. Those gentlemen demand $10,000 for their so-called patent, and Orange county is asked the sum of $1,500 for granting its citizens the privilege of using the fumigating remedy. Surely our Board of Supervisors have no authority to make any such appropriation. Clearly, in justice to the people, it ought not to doose. Because, no man or set of men should ever be permitted—by patient or otherwise—to charge a royalty for the use of any remediate agent when the weal and welfare of the community is jeopardized. What would be thought of that physician, who, living in the midst of a plague-striken city, hearing the groans and sufferings of the afflicted and dying all around him, refusing the antidote in his possession, unless paid an enormous sum for its use? Yet, the gentlemen asking this sum are residents among us, mutually depending with the rest of us on the prosperity of the country. They see the deadly ravages of this insect sapping the very life-blood of our orange groves, as tree after tree succumbs to its insidious work. They seek to profit by the misfortune of those whose trees are attacked, by demanding from our overburdened and too-much-taxed people, a royalty for that which never coat them an hour's thought, but in reality is said to be the emanation of another man's brain. Are not the people right in openly using this remedy in defiance of the threats of prosecution by these men? Does it not look like extortion? Does it not appear like a fraud? Bah! The whole transaction seems rotten, and the effluvia arising from it stinks in the nostrils of decent men. THOMAS SPENCER. Orangethorpe, June 9. The fugitive Itata has arrived at Iquique and surrendered to the United States Government. She was followed closely by the Charleston. It is said that the Itata loaded 5,000 rifles and other stores at Tocopilla before starting for Iquique. Five thousand rifles and the remaining cargo were turned over to the United States authorities when the tropic, upon our article in reference to the petition of the Southern Pacific Railroad to be set out of our irrigation district, declares we seek to raise a "false issue" in irrigation matters, with the railroad at the little end of it. As we seek to do nothing of the kind, and as the Covina gentleman evidently doesn't know what he is talking about, a further consideration of his communication is referred to the wast basket. To morrow afternoon the schools let out for the summer vacation, which will extend into September. We trust the teachers will pass their vacation pleasantly, and that the scholars will remain good boys and girls. The schools have progressed favorably under the tuition of our very efficient corps of teachers. For their courtesies extended us during the school term we desire to return thanks. That their lines may be cast in pleasant places is the wish of all. We have been appealed to to settle the absorbing question of the weight of a certain mysterious goose, which, are informed, "weighs ten pounds and half its own weight." A says the bird weighs twenty pounds, and B that it tips the beam at fifteen pounds. The question is referred to us, with the request that we settle the dispute. This we do. Split the difference and call it seventeen pounds and three-quarters. A letter from Brunson, Wilson & Lamme states that Judge Wilson is absent from Los Angeles, and his reply to her railroad apetition to be set out of our irrigation district is unavoidably deferred to a future issue. But the railroad will never get out of the district. That's settled beyond any doubt. The Perris (San Diego county) New Era quotes—without credit—our comment on G. H. Stewart's article on irrigation bonds recently published in these columns, and makes the singular mistake of saying that Mr. Stewart placed "an insurmountable obstacle" in the way of their negotiability. As we stated that Mr. Stewart was in favor of the bonds, and had placed no insurmountable barrier in the way of their negotiating them, our Perris friend had better proceed to rectify his mistake, bearing in mind meanwhile Across the Deep, to the steamboats, cars and stage-coach Stomach Bitters is carried as far as Item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in the materia medica of this item in The anniversary exercises at Washington on Sunday was adopted consummating Secretary Blaine in issuing circular instructing the United States to report to the State Board best means of introducing Amendments with those countries, and various tions connected with the beer.

The Arrowhead Reservoir Company, incorporated under the laws of Kentucky two months since by Cincinnati capitalists, last week purchased a reservoir site in the mountains twelve miles north of San Bernardino and announced their intention to rush work on its construction as rapidly as possible. The company has a capital of 1,000,000. James Gamble of Proctor & Jamble is President. Adolph Wood is Vice-President and general manager and Benjamin Ehrman is Secretary. The other capitalists are James E. Mooney, Charles H. Kilgore, Henry Lewis, Colonel Latham, Anderson & Ellis and M. Porter, all of Cincinnati. Only a small amount of stock held in this state by San Bernardino parties. A large amount of the stock has been taken, which will be paid up in full as rapidly as the money is needed in work, andartoies stand ready to take more as it is necessary. Probably $200,000 will be expended within a year, which will enable the company to commence the delivery of water. The system consists of two reservoirs in the valleys north of the mountains twelve miles north of San Bernardino. These reservoirs will be filled by a canal from a deep rock, the principal tributary to the Mohave river. The water shed is larger than that of the Bear Valley Company. The company expects to store water to irrigate 120,000 acres of land lying between San Bernardino and Pomona and Chino, and between the mountains on the north and San Bernardino on the south. The system is similar to that adopted by the Bear Valley Company, and as water rights calling for enough water to irrigate on a basis of one inch to eight acres. San Bernardino feels jubilant over the announcement that the work is soon to commence on the system. The formation of irrigation districts under the Wright Act will be stimulated by this work. The districts in San Bernardino county are now finding less trouble to sell bonds for cash and to pay for pipe lines, etc. With bonds at par the public confidence in these securities is growing stronger daily, and the people are consequently happy. The New Tax Law. The following are the more important provisions of the new semi-annual tax law: Sec. 3746. Within ten days after the receipt of the "Duplicate Assessment Book," the Tax Collector must publish a notice specifying: 1.

The crew were at their station for three hours, and as we supposed the Itata was in the harbor we had everything ready to take ber. It looked like business to go 6 and 8 inch shells lying around and every gun loaded. I commenced to think how many would be angels and how many would be heroes. About 8 o'clock in the morning the Esmeralda came into port and so we had a good chance to size her up. At long range we have the advantage, but at short range it would be a stand-off.
