The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchet, Charles Kuchet, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. THURSDAY...OCTOBER 1, 1891. The enormity of the Pension Bureau is again set forth in the annual report of Pension Commissioner Raum, a synopsis of which will be found printed on the first page. From this report it will be seen that the total amount disburased on account of pensions, expenses, etc., during the past year was $113,548,959. Thirty-eight thousand five hundred and seventy-four pensioners, to whom $4,883,242 was due, had not been paid "for want of time." The Commissioner elaborates at some length upon the fact that this money was "not expended." The deficiency in the "appropriation for the payment of the fees and expenses of the examining surgeons"—which is separate and apart from the money appropriated for the payment of pensions—amounts to $500,000. The Commissioner, however, does not say what amount was actually expended for the fees and expenses of these examining surgeons. Owing to this omission his report is incomplete and misleading. When it is considered that, according to Gen. Raum's figures in the North American Review for August, there are 45,000 medical examinations made each month, it will be seen that this item of expense must be exceedingly large. There are thousands of medical examiners, many of them drawing a pension and reaping a harvest in their official capacity besides. The item of their expense is, singularly enough, withheld from the people. There were 676,160 pensioners upon the rolls on June 30th, being an increase of 138,216 over the preceding fiscal year. There were on June 13th last, 119,815 cases that had been drawn from the files and placed in the hands of the various divisions undergoing necessary action for their adjudication and allowance, while there were 28,023 cases which had been allowed and were in process of having certificates written and forwarded for payment. So that it will be seen that, with these two latter batches of pensions added to the number already on the rolls, we have a total number of 823,998 pensioners to be wheroupon the School Trustees ordered the entire school system of eleven teachers closed pending a settlement of the difficulty. The Superintendent claims that under the law three teachers are teaching studies prescribed by the course of study. The courts will be called upon to decide the matter. THE RIVER LEVEE. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO INVESTIGATE THE SUBJECT. The meeting at the office of the irrigation district on Saturday to devise ways and means to levee the river was quite largely attended. Mr. Ryan was elected President and H. C. Kellogg Secretary. The latter gentleman read a voluminous report on the work necessary to be done, and the following committee was selected to take the matter in hand and perfect ways and means for the carrying out of the work: Measures Ryan, Kellogg, Sheppard, Sorenson, Alex Wright, Norman. The committee met yesterday and formulated the following proposition: EDITOR GAZETTE—We, the undersigned, an executive committee appointed to consider the best means to protect property from the encroachment and overflow of the Santa Ana river, submit the following appeal to the citizens and property owners affected directly and indirectly by the overflow of the river, in which we propose to show the extent of lands damaged and liable to be damaged by said river, having arrived at our conclusion after a careful consideration of the whole question, in which we were aided in our investigations by the topographical maps of the district. The time that would be consumed in organizing a levee district under the law for forming levee districts makes it impossible to proceed under its provisions and protect ourselves for the coming season. We have decided that the best plan would be to raise funds either in money or work, by subscription, with which to construct such works as are necessary for our immediate protection. We have estimated on the construction of works at those points where danger is imminent, and also on clearing the present channel of all debris and brush for a width of sufficient extent to carry all of the water. Said debris is to be deposited on the northwest bank in the form of a levee, along which a belt of willow poles are to be driven in order to establish a natural levee of willows for future protection. An examination of the river bank from the upper end of the Yorba settlement to the Olive bridge shows that it is composed of a loose sandy formation, varying from three to six feet in height, with the slope of the country adjoining descending in the direction of the valley, with a grade at the southeast corner of Section 22 north, elevation section corner 132 far half mile 138 feet; section corner 132 east end of Los Angeles street; A 145 feet; thence north along Los Angeles street; at South street; 149 feet; at North end of county bridge 146 feet; branch ditch on Spadra road 151 feet; corner corner 144 on Orangethorne street; one-half mile 147 south line of Fullerton. Fourth line ginnning at the southeast corner of A thence north along East street; elever corner 161 feet; at South street 160 Santa Ana street 163 feet; at Center 166 feet; at Sycamore street 166 North street 163 feet; on section line; at one-half mile 165 sandwash; one-wheel corner 166 and Wright's at one-half mile 162 feet east outer of the town of Fullerton. The elevation of the river bank China garden (break east of Anaheim feet, 46 feet higher than East street heim, a distance about 24 miles), a fall of nearly 20 feet to the mille one who will carefully examine their elevations in these cross sections, cluides a belt five miles in width, ex from Fulerton on the north to a point miles south of Anaheim, it readily seen that any port country referred to is liable age, and that the course of the other overflow would be determined official obstructions rather than by its signature of the ground. This country that would be most damaged overflow would be determined in any by point at which the break occurs river; for instance if the break at Yorba, the lands of Yorba and then Orangehorne sections would most liable to damage. If there was at the bera pipe the country would include a portion of Fullerton angethorrepe, a portion of Anaheim country west of Anaheim. And she break occur at the China garden or the China garden and the Olive bridge damaged would embrace tothe Anaheim and the country tothe west of Anaheim. For reason given, we have decided that the eutition country from the river onthe point as far west of Anaheim as they eat of the people and the value of land demand it should be included within six or seven miles. And further territory be divided into districts tothe points where the breaks curred as indicated above, and that subscribed in each district be expected those points which threaten that publication. There were 676,160 pensioners upon the rolls on June 30th, being an increase of 138,216 over the preceding fiscal year. There were on June 13th last, 119,815 cases that had been drawn from the files and placed in the hands of the various divisions undergoing necessary action for their adjudication and allowance, while there were 28,023 cases which had been allowed and were in process of having certificates written and forwarded for payment. So that it will be seen that, with these two latter batches of pensions added to the number already on the rolls, we have a total number of 823,998 pensioners to be provided for. Since the stagment at the act out we know are allowed, or evidence are and medical more, and we actions goes on we monthly coos.

Government has already paid pensions no less than a billion and quarter of dollars. The expenditures for pensions during the coming year will aggregate $150,000,000. Next year the amount will press $175,000,000, and will go on increasing until an annual tax must be levied regularly to meet the deficit. Does it argue a lack of patriotism to speak out against this thing? Do the people know to what extent the money flows from the Treasury to pay these amounts? Do they We have estimated on the construction of works at those points where danger is imminent, and also on clearing the present channel of all debris and brush for a width of sufficient extent to carry all of the water. Said debriqu to be deposited on the northwest bank in the form of a loveo, along which a belt of willow poles are to be driven in order to establish a natural levee of willows for future protection. An examination of the river bank from the upper end of the Yorba settlement to the Olive bridge shows that it is composed of a loose sandy formation, varying from three to six feet in height, with the slope of the country adjoining descending in the direction of the valley, with a grade fully equal to the grade of the main channel, as shown by the contour elevations of the irrigation district. The extent of the territory imperiled by the above conditions will be shown later on. Statistics and evidence on the ground show that the flood waters broke over the bank and formed a channel at what is known as the Brea pipe in 1894 and 1885. The break was not repaired, but was left open and the water company put in the pipe at the channel crossing for the protection of the ditch. Since that time the railroad has been constructed across that country, and the levees constructed by them in 1899 and 1890 along the east bank of their road from the Anaheim canal to the main channel of the river, together with the old Anaheim canal, has diverted a large portion of the waters from this break back into the river, and as their works are of a permanent character, it would seem advisable to complete their undertaking and divert all of the waters down the main channel. In the freshet of 1899 the water came through the channel above referred to in large volume, and the river at the same time overflowed its banks at a point about two and one-half miles above Anaheim. This overflow out a channel for some distance and came directly toward the town of Anaheim, striking the town limits at the east end of Center street, where a sand levee, formed by an old irrigating ditch running diagonally to the south-west across Center street to Broadway, at East street, diverted the waters as far south as Santa Ana street, and notwithstanding that the town authorities used every effort to divert the waters to the south along East street by means of levees along the water canal, the waters broke over from Santa Ana to South street and following the course of a natural depression flooded all the southern portion of the town and a large extent of the country to the south and west. The flood of 1891 broke over at those points above referred to and also at a point near the upper end of the Yorba settlement, forming a new canal through alfalfa fields and improved places in Yorba passing under and almost undermining the south end of the Yorba store, cutting out a large section of the Southern California Railroad in Richfield and joining the waters of the break from the Brea pipe on the north bank of the sandwash, near Ed. Kraamer's house. This increased volume proceeded westerly to Crowther's southeast corner; thence west on a line parallel with and about 300 feet south of Orangethorse avenue to a point near Lionel Browning's southeast corner, where the stream was diverted to the southwest partly by a sand ridge covered with cactus, but principally by the property owners along Orangethorse avenue, who turned out and threw in a levee of brush composed principally of eyepress and poplar. They succeeded in preventing the water from going down the avenue, where it would have ent a new channel between the avenue and Fullerton, as the elevations will indicate. Continuing southwesterly the waters plowed their way through the lands on both sides of In conclusion we impress upon our necessity for action. If nothing is in chance are two to one that we want the Santa Ana river flowing through center of the valley or the middle oak and as we have shown no one can spare course or locate its channel. It can easily go through the best of the Brea country as through the sandwash equally as liable to go through the Anaheim, and this condition of things understood abroad. It is rumored prominent banker of Los Angeles "that while the country in its presence was ample security for that it is irrigated district, it was liable at any time by the river through it." Hence market our property depends in a great measure our action in this matter. The committee present this report: serious danger threatening this section, and urge most stress necessity for immediate action. A mass meeting will be held in at Kroeger's Hall at 2:30 P.M.

Next year the amount will press $175,000,000, and will go on increasing until an annual tax must be levied regularly to meet the deficit. Does it argue a lack of patriotism to speak out against this thing? Do the people know to what extent the money flows from the Treasury to pay these amounts? Do they know the Treasury at Washington is to-day embarrassed by the inordinate drain made upon it? Do they know that this is the first time since the war that the country rests upon the verge of a deficit? The press must speak out against this thing. The people cannot stand it. The question in the next national campaign will be, not the tariff, nor silver, but the all-absorbing one of the pension bureau. Weed out the pension bureau! The case of Juan de Toro against the land company has been decided by the Supreme Court in favor of the latter. The people owning lands on the tract, on which they have built comfortable homes and set out orchards, are to be congratulated, as well as the land company, on the termination of the affair. The Modesto people are having a lot of fun with their public schools. Last Saturday the School Trustees ordered the schools closed, then the School Superintendent ordered them opened. The trouble is all over the formation of a high school. For some time past the formation of a high school has been agitated, but nothing was done. Two weeks ago the schools opened for the fall term. On Friday the Superintendent served opinions of State Superintendent Anderson and Attorney-General Hart upon the Trustees, claiming that under their decisions studies were being taught not laid down for grammar grades or in the County Board of Education's course of study. On Saturday the Principal of the schools and the Vice President of the Board of Trustees made a requisition for two weeks' salary upon the County Superintendent, which he refused to draw, This increased volume proceeded westerly to Crowther's southeast corner; thence west on a line parallel with and about 300 feet south of Orangesthorpe avenue to a point near Lionel Browning's southeast corner, where the stream was diverted to the southwest partly by a sand ridge covered with cactus, but principally by the property owners along Orangesthorpe avenue, who turned out and throw in a levee of brush composed principally of eyepress and poplar. They succeeded in preventing the water from going down the avenue, where it would have cut a new channel between the avenue and Fullerton, as the elevations will indicate. Continuing southwesterly the waters plowed their way through the lands on both sides of the channel which did not have sufficient capacity to carry such a large volume of water and overflowed the banks at the northwest corner of Anaheim, flooding a considerable portion and also a large area west of Anaheim, including lands of Dr. Gardiner and Alex Henry and others, doing considerable damage; also cutting away a large section of the Southern Pacific Railroad at their bridge across the sandwash. At the break east of Anaheim the river cut a channel further to the south, cutting away a large area of land along the west bank; and also a wide channel around the west end of the Olive bridge. Now having called your attention to the extent of the breaks that have already occurred, and the channels which are open at present, we urge upon you the necessity for immediate and concerted action. With existing conditions it does not take any stretch of the imagination to conceive of one or two river channels through our valley, unless something is done. But the exact location of the channel or channels could not be so readily determined, and in order to demonstrate this we will cite you to the elevations taken above sea level of several cross-sections of the valley on section lines running north and south: First—Beginning at the southwest corner of Section 20, T.4 S., R. 10 W., thence north, elevation 91 feet; at section corner one-half mile, 92 feet; section corner 97 feet at Ball's place; one-half mile, 101; section corner, 104; one-half mile 106 feet in sandwash; section corner 112 feet at Ryan's; one-half mile, 106 feet; section corner 108 feet at W.J.
