LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK. Orange Growers Organize Against the Scale. The New Contoll Emulsion Spray to Be Exhibited at Judge French's Orchard Saturday—Horticulturists Invited to Attend Case of the Water Company Against the Yorbas Greeley's Masterful Speech—All the News of the Past Seven Days. The meeting of orange growers at Kroger's Hall on Saturday afternoon was not as largely attended as it should have been, but the earnest endeavor on the part of those present to carry out the object of the meeting made up for lack in numbers. Mr. Pendleton was elected President, and Mr. Staley Secretary. Mr. Perry stated the object of the meeting. It had been called for the purpose of forming an orange growers' association to make a united effort to suppress scale and otherwise to work for the good of the members. Some one should be given authority to order spraying of scale-infested trees, and he should see that the work is done. The Horticultural Commissioners have not the power that a local organization would give its officers, and the result would be an advance all along the line against the bugs, with their practical extermination in the end. He had found three washos—the IXL, Resin and San Diego Cyclone—to be efficacious in killing scale on foliage, but found they would not touch scale on fruit. The newly tried coal-oil emulsion kills scale on both. Something should be done to bring about the use of this latter remedy, which he considered quite as good as fumigation for killing scale. Mr. French said that he had sprayed his trees with the coal-oil emulsion and after a week had found the scale all dead. The process was an old Government remedy, which had gone out of use because it had not been found efficacious, on account of the improper mixing of the ingredients. Some years ago Mr. Hinde of Placentia, who knew how to mix the ingredients according to directions, tried the remedy on his trees and found it killed the scale on foliage and fruit to a nicotine. He had instructed Mr. French in the mixing of the compound. The latter gentleman tried it on his trees, and the scale were all killed. He exhibited an orange that had notice in taxing these sections for the Santa Ana school, especially since the latter section is amply able to support its own institutions of learning. Even San Bernardino, in this county, has not sought to avail itself of the county school law, but will sustain a public high school at its own expense, leaving the other prominent centers in the county unhampered to do the same. The fact that there will be three or four high schools organized in this county within a year is an evidence that local self government affords the best conditions for a community's advancement. The Orange county high school proposition was killed by Saturday's election. It was a case of the caudal appendage essaying to oscillate the canine. Santa Ana wanted the county to pay for her school and the county couldn't see it. That is all. Riverside, San Bernardino and other places in this county build their own high schools, which is as it should be. Anaheim Water Company. The Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company met in regular session on Saturday. The Board of Audit made its report upon the manner of keeping the books of the company. The Secretary reported a balance on hand of $155 97. The Treasurer reported $1,201 93 in bank to the credit of the company. Mr. Taylor of Victor, San Bernardino county, wrote that he had a flock-of several hundred goats that he thought would be just the thing to clean the company's ditches with. The goats would run along the ditoh, tramp down the dirt at the bottom of it and eat the weeds growing on the sides. They would also eat up all the old cigar boxes and tin cans in the neighborhood. Letter filed and no action taken. Ex-Superintendent Staley brought in a demand for $75 for August salary, claiming that his wages are due for a year. As Mr. Sorenson is now the Superintendent and has been so for some time past, Staley's demand was disallowed. Buona Park. Tuesday evening the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. A.W. Whitaker was the scene of gayety and pleasure, the occasion being a reception given to Mr. and Mrs.J.H. Whitaker. About one hundred guests paid their respects and congratulations to the lovely bride and groom. The house was beautifully decorated with flowers. The porches were lighted and served as a unique place for lovers' tate-tate-tates and happy chats. The Y.P.S.C.E.will give a tea meeting this evening (Thursday), and a good time is anticipated. Come one and all, and enjoy the feast served at 7:30. This society has undertaken the raising of funds for an endeavor room to be added to the new church. Bert and Frank Whitaker were home on a he considered quite as good as fumigation for killing scales. Mr. French said that he had sprayed his trees with the coal-oil emulsion and after a week had found the scale all dead. The process was an old Government remedy, which had gone out of use because it had not been found efficacious, on account of the improper mixing of the ingredients. Some years ago Mr. Hinde of Placentia, who knew how to mix the ingredients according to directions, tried the remedy on his trees and found it killed the scale on foliage and fruit to a nasty. He had instructed Mr. French in the mixing of the compound. The latter gentleman tried it on his trees, and the scale were all killed. He exhibited an orange that had been sprayed a week ago. Three-fourths of the scale had already fallen off the fruit and the rest were dead and almost ready to fall. He thought the coal-oil emulsion was just the thing to kill scale. The expense of the spray is 7½ cents, say 10 cents, per tree without labor. Mr. Staley suggested that a committee go to see Mr. Hinde and procure the formula, after which it could be tried by everybody. He had fumigated his trees lately and found the scale all killed. Mr. Pendleton said that everybody at Placentia is engaged in killing scale. The people wanted co-operation, and other sections should do as they did—look out for the scale, and rid themselves of the pest. He wanted united effort, and all to go in together. That is the only way to kill scale. After further remarks on the desirability of having the coal-oil emulsion tested in public, and the necessity of having the mixing process perfectly known, the Chairman appointed Messrs. Staley, French and Perry as a committee to go to Mr. Hinde's place on Monday and receive instructions as to the preparation of the emulsion. Mr. Hinde had volunteered to instruct them. The committee waited on Mr. Hinde on Monday, and report that on Saturday next a public exhibition of the remedy and the mode of its application, together with the method of its preparation, will be had at Judge French's orchard at Placentia, to which all orange growers are invited. The spraying will begin promptly at 2 o'clock, and those who intend to be present should be on hand punctually, because the bug killing will begin promptly at 2. It is desirable that as many orange growers be present as possible. It is believed that the emulsion is the greatest remedy yet known in the extermination of scale—and the beauty of it is, there is no patent on it. Mr. Hinde has used the spray for the past five years and it is said his orchard is the best looking in the country. Last year he sprayed only once, and the scale was so effectively destroyed that no further spraying was necessary. Mr. French has used the spray for several weeks, and claims that his scale has been literally knocked out. Those who attend the exhibition on Saturday will have an opportunity of observing the effect of the wash in both orchards. A cordial invitation is extended to all interested parties to be present at Judge French's orchard on Saturday afternoon at 2. Anahaim Water Co. vs. the Yorbas. The application for a temporary injunction in the case of the Anahaim Union Water Company vs. Vicente Yorba et al., was argued before Judge Shaw in Los Angeles on Monday. The affidavits filed by plaintiff show that the water in the river is divided equally between the Anahaim and Santa Ana sides of the river; that from Anahaim's half the Yorbas take about 450 inches, which they run into the Orange ditch and is carried and Mrs. A.

Bort and Frank Whitaker were home on a flying visit on Tuesday. Eastern Mention of Our Fruit Growers The publishers of Eastern periodicals are gradually awakening to the fact that there is a promising field on this coast, and the prominent magazines are devoting much space to matters pertaining to California. In the August number of the Forum is a very interesting article by Lionel A. Sheldon, ex-Governor of New Mexico, upon "The Profits of Fruit Culture in California." The prominent facts in regard to the various branches of horticulture are set forth in a readable manner, and figures are quoted showing the very large profits realized in numerous cases. The statistics of railroad shipments for the past two years are also given, which read between the lines, afford considerable information that will doubtless puzzle some readers who are not familiar with certain peculiar features of this State.

Judge Freeman Is 62 Years Old. Santa Ana Standard. Judge Freeman was 62 years old on Thursday. A few of his friends discovered the fact and sent him one of the finest rocking chairs that could be found in the city. He sat down in it, laid down in it, rolled over in it and pronounced it the finest testimonial to old age ever invented. Eight years ago we wrote up the old pirate's fifty-four birthday. We now send him off on his 62d. He is a fair sample of two distinct ages in the history of California. He combines the spirit of '49 with the sentiment of New England. He has the generosity of a prince and the dogmatism of a theologian. He combines the fanaticism of a New England political puritan with the whole-souled buccaneer of California in the days of '49. The judge is a philosopher without a theory, a politician without a church, a reformer without a doctrine and a preacher without a creed. But no man living or dead ever appealed to him for redress or sought assistance from him that went away sorrowful. No trumpet, no millionaire and no friend ever brought his office or his household but what felt that justice, equity, humanity and common sense reigned supreme with him. He carries more vices and more virtues than any other man we ever saw, and keeps robust, healthy and happy and asks the sweet favors of any man we ever know. May he live a thousand years and then be translated like Enoch and Elijah, for no one can translate him here. Fordiuand Heimt town yesterday.

Anaheim Water Co. vs. the Yorbas. The application for a temporary injunction in the case of the Anaheim Union Water Company vs. Vicente Yorba et al., was argued before Judge Shaw in Los Angeles on Monday. The affidavits filed by plaintiff show that the water in the river is divided equally between the Anaheim and Santa Ana sides of the river; that from Anaheim's half the Yorbas take about 450 inches, which they run into the Orange ditch and is carried therein a distance of several miles, when it is again emptied into the river bed and flows thence into the Yorba ditch; that by the time the stream reaches the point of use by the Yorbas, the 450 inches is reduced by seepage to about 160 inches. The affidavits of plaintiff further aver that the Yorba ditch had only a carrying capacity of 200 inches. The plaintiff asks the Court for an order allowing it to carry the Yorba water in its ditch to a point above the place of use by said Yorbas, and to deliver in said Yorba dutch, at that point, 160 inches of water, thereby saving to the plaintiff over 250 inches, which it is alleged is wasted under the present system. The Court not being satisfied from the affidavits as to the carrying capacity of the Yorba ditch, it was agreed by the respective counsel that its capacity be ascertained by Fred Eaton or Ed. Wright, and upon their report being made the court will make its order. It is likely that the court will grant the petition, modified, however, by requiring the plaintiff to deliver enough water to fill the Yorba ditch. This will be practically what the plaintiff asks for, as it is contended by plaintiff that the Yorba ditch will only carry 200 inches. Made a Serious Mistake. Riverside Press. The people of Santa Ana are making the serious mistake of attempting to secure a high school under the county high school law, and are naturally finding strong opposition to the measure. This law provides that the high school shall be sustained at the expense of the entire county, though its benefits can in the nature of things be shared only by a comparatively small portion of the population. The union high school district law, under which the section benefited is alone taxed for its support, is decidedly more democratic, and would be found unobjectionable. Anaheim, and doubtless other populous sections of Orange county, are capable of sustaining high schools, and there would seem to be no justification without a theory, a politician without a party, a theologian without a church, a reformer without a doctrine and a preacher without a creed. But no man living or dead ever appealed to him for redress or sought assistance from him that went away sorrowful. No tramp, no millionaire and no fiend ever brought before his office or his household but what felt that justice, equity, humanity and common sense reigned supreme with him. He carries more vices and more virtues than any other man we ever saw, and keeps robust, healthy and happy and asks the fewest favors of any man we ever know. May he live a thousand years and then be translated like Enoch and Elijah, for no one can translate him here. Patent Twilight Fraud. California. Then there is the gas treatment to be dealt with. Here all the county boards of commissioners are more or less at fault. There is not a shadow of doubt that District Attorney McLeachlan is correct in his opinion that the supervisors cannot pay out money for this so-called patent. There is no doubt the patent is void, and will be so declared if the question is ever carried to the Court of Last Appeal. No court, at once honest and intelligent, will ever uphold this patent. Patent darkness? As well talk of getting out a patent on the attraction of gravitation, on atomic cohesion, on the full moon, or on the "sweet influences of the pleiades." Yet it appears that the commissions of the counties generally favored the purchase of this groundless patent. Now it cannot be bought, and those who claim the right say they will prosecute any one who uses the gas treatment under a tent at night. Here again the board of supervisors may be called upon to act. If it is a possible thing all the counties should pool their issues in this matter and agree to bear the expense of carrying a test case through the courts. Then let any one who will go to work and make a tent and proceed to stifle the scale pest with the gas. The cost to the six counties most interested would be the merest bagatelle.

Greeley's Masterful Speech. Delivered at Santa Ana August 24th in favor of the county high school: "We did not expect there would be any opposition to the matter when it was first brought up. No county is so well situated for a county high school. There is no community but that could send pupils to the high school. The opposition so strongly waged is not an opposition to the high school. They don't talk high school; they talk against Santa Ana—down Santa Ana. The opposition have gone so far as to look up the law to see who is going to be benefited. They say Santa Ana wants a Courthouse, and they urge that they will teach those Santa follows that they can't run Orange county. There would be no opposition if these people thoroughly understood the question, and were not led astray by their prejudices." Comments of the Orange News: "And what shall we say of our Superintendent? Our cheeks mantle with shame that any official of Orange county should descend so low as to appeal to the lowest and most brutal passions of the human breast for the purpose of carrying a point! Nothing in the annals of anarchism could be worse than this! Will Santa Ana permit herself to be played Ana Thursday, October last. The bill posters were in town Tuesday. They hung up some very nice paper. The ladies of Malvern Hill Corps of Anaheim will sell ice cream in the room vacated by Joseph Helmsen on Saturday afternoon and evening, Sept. 12th.

Stanton & Van Alstine, who advertise elsewhere for improved ranches in this vicinity, are preparing to put out 600 acres in walnut on property south and west of town. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kreiss expired on Sunday afternoon and was buried on Monday. The sorrowing family have the condolence of all who know them. Mr. Littlefield has four very fine pampas plants in his yard from which he has already plucked several hundred plumes. He will get upwards of 500 plumes from the four plants. Both evening papers at Santa Ana declare one of them must die. The Press says, "Taint me! The Blade says, 'Taint我 patience, sunny.' We can spare "naythur of ye." Henry Knapke has on exhibition at his saloon on Center street a very fine specimen of the Jumbo suflower, raised by Ernest Stein. The flower is seventeen inches in circumference, and is a beauty. Andrew Roorden brought in from his place at Placentia last Saturday a cluster of twenty-eight Bartlett pears weighing twelve pounds. The cluster is on exhibition in the window of Landlord Helmsen's Daylight Store. A small ice famine is threatened. Conrad's ice machine broke down the other day and is being repaired. It is said ice is also scarce in Los Angeles. Conrad's machine will be in working order in a day or two, when ice will be plentiful again.

Buther of Yorba took it into their heads to run away on Monday afternoon, and forthwith darted up the street. They ran through Center street, creating consternation on all sides, and were captured in the cactus east of town. No damage. The Board of Supervisors on Monday allowed $4 50 to each officer of the recent special election. This aggregates $900 for the whole number of men employed.

The "Midsummer Harvest Number" on the Los Angeles Times, issued last Saturday was a notable number of that enterprising journal.

We inadvertently omitted to mention last week that returns of the high school election were bulleted in front of this office as soon as they arrived over the wires.At S oclock it was certain the school was beaten,and when Harry Bently arrived with the returns from Westminster and Garden Grove it was certain the school was buried out of sight.Returns were in from nineteen out of the twenty-five precincts by 9 o'clock.Enhusiastic crowds sized up the vote,and bizarre reignsuposed upon when it was known that our side had carried the day. It is somewhat surprising that the Los Angeles Herald, usually well informed in its remarks about us,sould printthe outgivingsof some irresponsible smart aleck who showsa dispositiontobe criticalattheexpenseofour soldierboys.We do not knowthatthe boy's reputationcanbe harmedbythe outgivingsofthisLosAnglesmartaleckbutwedoknowthatifhehadaskedasmuchatSantaMonicaastheHeraldprints,hisheadwouldhavebeen knockedoffforhispains The opposition have gone so far as to look up the law to see who is going to be benefited. They say Santa Ana wants a Courthouse, and they urge that they will teach those Santa Ana follows that they can't run Orange county. There would be no opposition if these people thoroughly understood the question, and were not led astray by their prejudices." Comments of the Orange News: "And what shall we say of our Superintendent? Our cheeks mangle with shame that any official of Orange county should descend so low as to appeal to the lowest and most brutal passions of the human breast for the purpose of carrying a point! Nothing in the annuals of anarchism could be worse than this! Will Santa Ana permit herself to be played upon and her jealousy fanned into a flame by every demagogue who wishes to use her? Have we not declared over and over that we merely wish to discuss and protect our mutual interests, those of the whole county? When will Santa Ana feel so secure and at the same time be so disposed to deal justly that she can say: 'Come let us reason together over this matter.'" Harker's Harness Shop. W. R.

Two new insects that feed upon the leaf of the beet have made their appearance in the Alvarado beet fields in Santa Clara county. Neither has appeared in very alarming quantities, and no very great evil results are expected from them. The first and most dangerous of these bugs is the aphis brassicae. Specimens of this pest were sent to Dr. Harkness, of the Academy of Sciences of San Francisco, for examination and identification. This particular aphis has never before appeared in California, though in Belgium and other parts of Europe they have at times appeared in great quantities, causing much damage to beets.

A party of enthusiastic young gentlemen who tendered a charicari to a newly married couple some nights ago were so destructive to the property as well as the feelings of the couple that the affair was only "squared" by the payment of $10 to the happy groom. We were down to see Conrad the other day at the brewery. He was very busy cleaning out the boiler, but had time enough to show us through the sampling department. Conrad is turning out the finest brow of lager in the State, and Easterners declare his beer is every bit as fine as Lemps. Conrad takes great paints with his brewing, employs none but the most experienced man and uses only the best of materials. No wonder he makes good beer. Being also a very liberal gentleman, there is no wonder that his friends will drop around to see him occasionally. Frank Schaumburger, besides being a vocalist of no mean order, he gets a chance to cultivate his voice every day when he hitches up the horse in the delivery wagon, and at such times his dulcet strains come floating into the editorial sanctum over our backyard fence. Sometimes the horse doesn't mind, and Frank's song is temporarily interrupted, but as soon as he quiets the animal and recovers his wind he goes on as if nothing at all had happened. While hitching up the horse yesterday Frank tried his voice on his new song, something like this: She any sweetheart—time her how, (Who there, you beast! Who there!) Soon we'll marry, never 'tart, (Who there! Who there!) Little Annie Roo—You dodgasted harum scarum If the horse would give Frauk half a chance, he'd become a vocalist.
