LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK. A Big Day's Work in the Irrigation District. Southern Pacific Officials Before the Board—The Railroad's Petition to Be Set Out of the District Again Postponed—Orange County Fair—Fall Convention of the Christian Endeavor Union—Yorba Hobbers Discharged—Pool Sellers. The Board of Directors of the irrigation district transacted a big day's business at their regular meeting on Tuesday. The full board was present, and the entire day was consumed in dealing with matters that claimed attention. Col. Hotchkiss and Col. Hewitt of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company were present, and upheld the railroad's petition to be set out of the district. At the request of the former gentleman the hearing of the petition was continued until after the meeting of the State Association of irrigation districts, to be held in Los Angeles on the 20th instant. The board voted to attend the meeting in a body, and the question will there be discussed by all the districts through which the railroad passes. It is expected that united action will be taken at that time against the granting of the petition. Director Stadtegger made a concise report of his investigation into ex-Collector Cadman's books. It was shown that a balance of $35 72 was due the ex-Collector, but several minor mistakes made by that official will come near balancing the account. No bids for the purchase of bonds were received, and late in the afternoon the board went into executive session as a committee of the whole on a proposition from Director Porter, who stated he could dispose of $200,000 of the bonds if a satisfactory commission would be paid. When the committee rose it was learned that Mr. Porter's proposition could not be entertained, wheresupon the Directors of the water company, in special session assembled, levied an assessment of $1 per share on the capital stock of the company, to carry on the necessary work of improvement. They appointed Director Shepard Superintendent of the company, in place of D. J. Sorenson. The contract of Wilson & Lampe as attorneys of the board having expired, their services were re-engaged, their salary to be fired at the next with the irrigation district, and help to make the valley "blossom as the rose." Shortly after he took his departure, the best of feeling prevailing. It developed that no protest had been pressed by the citizens of the district against the granting of the railroad's petition. This was rather an important point, and when the board adjourned for lunch it was evidently attended to, for when they reassembled after lunch a life-sized petition made its appearance and was introduced in conformity with law, asking the Direcitor to deny the railroad's petition. Engineer Kellogg had "rustled around" during the noon hour and secured the necessary number of signatures. The regular order of business was then resumed, when the Secretary read the following letter from the State Association of irrigation districts: TCLARE, Sept. 24, 1891. To the Board of Directors Ausheim irrigation District Gentlemen: Upon your advice and at the sign of number of prominent and cordial friends of the district system of irrigation in California, we hereby call a meeting of the State Association of Irrigation Districts of California, to be held at Los Angeles, Cal., on Tuesday, the 20th day of October, 1891. The purposes of this proposed session are: The purpose is a more perfect organization of all the irrigation districts in California and elect officers. Do bring about co-operative action in marketing irrigation district bonds. To formulate plans and take initiatory steps looking to the procuring of needed legislation a year hence as well as to effectually forestall and prevent the enactment of laws intimated to the best interests of irrigation in California as well as the condition of the several districts and take such action in the premises as shall seem wise. Each district in California is cordially invited to be represented by one or more delegates whether or not such association. Invitation is likewise extended to known friends of the district system throughout the State to be present and take part in the discussions. We are in hopes of obtaining reduced rates from the Southern Pacific Company and if successful due nother will be given. Let there be a raining convention at Los Angeles to end that district system of irrigation in California may be unitedly and energetically furthered. Assemble at rooms of Los Angeles Board of Trade, Respectfully, J.W.NANCE, President. A.J.PILLSBURY, Secretary. The Directors voted to attend the meeting in a body. The Collector reported the collection of $10 04 during the month, which had been turned over to the Treasurer. The Treasurer reported a balance of $4,329 65 in bank in favor of the district. The engineer made a report on reservoir sites, maps, etc. Director Stadtegger made a report of his examination into ex-Collector Cadman's books. The examination had been searching and complete, and the books had been subjected to a rigid scrutiny. It was found that there was ewing to the ex-Collector the amount of $35 72, but various mistakes that he had made by which the district is loser will about balance the account.

When the committee rose it was learned that Mr. Porter's proposition could not be entertained, whereas the Directors of the water company, in special session assembled, levied an assessment of $1 per share on the capital stock of the company, to carry on the necessary work of improvement. They appointed Director Sheppard Superintendent of the company, in place of D. J. Sorenson. The contract of Wilson & Lamme as attorneys of the board having expired, their services were re-engaged, their salary to be fixed at the next meeting. Below will be found a comprehensive resume of the proceedings of the meeting: The board was called to order shortly after 10 o'clock, with all members present. The Secretary read the minutes of the last regular meeting, which were approved. He was proceeding with the reading of communications when, shortly before 11 o'clock, Col. Hotchkiss and Col. Hewitt of the Southern Pacific Railroad, accompanied by a stenographer, entered the room, and the order of business was suspended to hear the railroad's application to be set out of the district. Col. Hotchkiss was prepared to reintroduce the testimony given at the hearing of the petition on June 2d last, but as that would take up too much time and the testimony to be introduced was substantially the same as on the occasion of the former hearing, it was agreed that the Secretary should read the type-written transcript of the testimony introduced at the first hearing. The testimony of Col. Hewitt, Mr. Lamott and others of the railroad company was then gone over. The copy was a stenographic report of that part of the meeting held on June 2d which related to the railroad's petition to be set out of the district. Col. Hewitt testified that he was the division superintendent of the Southern Pacific Railroad, and had been in the railroad business for twenty-two years. He thought the railroad would not be benefited by irrigation; in fact water would tend to soften the track, create wash-outs, cause accidents and make the company responsible for damage suits without end. Thus, if a train were to be ditched on account of a washout that was caused by the breaking of a ditch, and several lives should be lost, the read would be held responsible and would be called upon to defend itself in suits for heavy damages. He maintained that the district would not benefit the road at all, and might possibly do it much damage. The testimony of Mr. Lamott, right of way agent, was to the same effect. In his opinion water would harm the track, and the general benefit of irrigation would be very remote. The testimony was all gone over, including the objections of the members of the board, who showed that it was not their intention to irrigate the track or to cause it harm. They held that a well-defined system of irrigation would aid the railroad in proportion to the good that would accrue to the entire community. After the reading of the testimony Col. Hotchkiss addressed the board and said the railroad came in all friendly spirit, and had the same kindly feelings toward the district that animated them at the time of the first hearing. They desired to avoid going into court, and did not intend to go into court unless they were forced to. He conceded that irrigation is the life of the State, but held that the increase in the railroad's pro-rata rate of taxes was not offset by a corresponding increase in the business of the company. To be sure irrigation gave them The Collector reported the collection of $10 04 during the month, which had been turned over to The Treasurer. The Treasurer reported a balance of $4,329 65 in bank in favor of the district. The engineer made a report on reservoir sites, maps, etc. Director Stadtegger made a report of his examination into ex-Collector Cadman's books. The examination had been searching and complete, and the books had been subjected to a rigid scrutiny. It was found that there was ewing to the ex-Collector the amount of $35 72, but various mistakes that he had made by which the district is loser will about balance the account. The committee was continued, and will make a further report upon the books of the district at the next meeting. Reports of committees on selecting sites for reservoir and amount to be paid for same were made, and the committees continued. At half-past 2 o'clock, the time having arrived for the opening of the bids for the purchase of the bonds of the district, The Secretary announced that no bids had been received, and the board proceeded to discuss the manner of raising funds for carrying on improvements. The board went into executive session as a committee of the whole on a proposition of Mr. Porter, who stated he could sell $200,000 of the bonds in Los Angeles, provided they were endorsed by a sufficient number of responsible men in that city, and provided a satisfactory commission were paid. The board retired to an adjourning room, and in the interim the Directors of the water company convened in special session and discussed the propriety of levying an assessment for carrying on the necessary work of the company. Action on the same was deferred until The Directors of the district reported on the proposition under consideration in executive session. When the committee resumed its sitting as a board it was stated by Director Ryan that the proposition had under consideration could not be entertained; that it was not in power of the district to take it up. There was no guarantee that the bonds would be disposed of, the legal conditions would take up a month or two, and the proposition was quite a delicate thing for the board to undertake. What the preposition was could not be learned. Beth boards entered into an informal talk upon the question of raising funds for improvements. The district Directors decided to fix deriving from the tax levy until after the meeting of the State Association, and The Directors of the water company vetoed to levy an assessment of $1 per share on the capital stock of the company. Later they appointed Mr. Sheppard Superintendent of the company's ditches, in place of Mr. Sorenson. The district Directors agreed that the water company should carry on the necessary work of improvement, under the supervision of the engineer and the committee under conditions of the contract entered into on June 27th last.

After the reading of the testimony Col. Hetchkiss addressed the board and said the railroad came in all friendly spirit, and had the same kindly feelings toward the district that animated them at the time of the first hearing. They desired to avoid going into court, and did not intend to go into court unless they were forced to. He conceded that irrigation is the life of the State, but held that the increase in the railroad's pro rata of taxes was not offset by a corresponding increase in the business of the company. To be sure irrigation gave them more water, but when everybody has water it is like when everybody has potatoes—nobody wants them. He held that it may be right to tax the reality of the company, but not its improvements. The company did not want to take their pay in water—it would hurt their track. He pointed out the fact that ditches were not assessed in the district, and showed that under the law they should be. This he claimed was a disrimination in favor of the ditches. The Southern Pacific stands precisely where the Southern California Railroad stands—they will pay just as much money as the latter company to support the district. He asked that the hearing of the petition be deferred until a subsequent meeting, pending which the State Association of irrigation districts will meet in Los Angeles, on the 20th instant, at which time the question of excluding the railroad from all of the districts in the State through which it runs will come up for adjudication. In the mean time he desired to stand on "praying ground and interceding terms," as they say in the Methodist Church, and assured the Directors again of the entire friendliness of the railroad company. The company would agree to pay on a valuation of $2,600 per mile pending the decision of the State Association. He stated that the Southern Pacific Company had been approached by emissaries of the men who are fighting the irrigation districts and had been asked to side with them in carrying the fight into the United States Supreme Court, but this the railroad had positively refused to do. They will do so under no circumstances. On this showing the hearing was continued until after the meeting of the State Association. Messrs. Ryan and Porter were appointed a committee to examine into the question of the real property for taxation of the Southern Pacific and to report upon the same at the next regular meeting. Col. Hetchkiss thanked the board for the courtesy shown him and Col. Hewitt and assured them the railroad would march on The following bills were ordered paid: B. V. Garwood, salary and expenses $250 O. V. Knowlton, carpentering $960 Kuchel Bros., printing $1160 W. A. Witte, salary as Collector $250 H. C. Kellogg, engineer $1090 Simmite Union advertising $200 San Francisco Bulletin, same $4090 F. A. Korn, September and October salary, Board of Equalization, etc. $490 F. G. Ryan, same $649 B. F. Porter, same $840 Q. Stadtegger, same $769 W. Crowther, same $420 Total $353.70 Directors Ryan, Stadtegger and Crowther were appointed a Board of Audit. The Collector's salary was fixed at $25 per month from April to October and $50 per month of the rest of the year, he to receive the fees of the office, and to be guaranteed not less than $650 per year. The contract of Wilson & Lamsie attorneys of the district, having expired, it was agreed to retain them, their salary to be fixed at the next meeting. Adjourned to the call of the chair. The board will probably meet again immediately after the adjournment of the State Association on the 29th. The Yorba Robbery. The safe of the Yorba store, which as stated in these columns last week had been tampered with by robbers who broke into the building some time on Tuesday night a week ago, was brought into town on Thursday last and taken to Spoerl's shop to be opened. The robbers had drilled two holes in it, one inch to the left and the other directly above the combination. When the robbery was discovered on Wednesday it was found that the safe, which contained $800 and valuable papers, could not be opened, and the owners had no means of knowing whether the contents were stolen or not. The safe was put upon a wagon and brought into town. After working half an hour on the disrupted combination Spoerl succeeded, with the assistance of Arthur Lewis, in opening it, when it was found that the contents had not been touched. The robbers had evidently been frightened away. One hole, that to the left of the combination, was four inches deep, and the other was half that depth. David Yorba says that on the evening of the robbery two men claiming to be painters walked up to the store, and one of them went inside, presumably to familiarize himself with the premises.

The Orange County Fair at Santa Ana last week was an artistic and popular success. The county did herself proud, and there was probably never a better showing of the products of the soil in California. It is a pity that Anahism had no display. We believe we could have taken the locality prize. There was no display from this section, with the single honorable exception of Timothy Carroll of the famous Evergreen Nurseries—more power to his elbow. Tim's display was a feature of the Fair, and was commented upon by everybody as being one of the finest ever seen in this lower country. There is no nursery in the State that can show the prolific nature of the soil better than the Evergreen Nurseries, the oldest and largest in the county. The Fair was largely attended, and visitors were well repaid for attending. Orange was awarded the first locality prize, Garden Grove second, Tustin third and Westminster fourth. Financially the Fair was a success, and the Directors are to be congratulated on the favorable outcome. The races were attended by large crowds, especially on Thursday and Saturday. The time was good, although the track was slow owing to the windy weather. The ladies' tournament on Thursday was a feature. Six ladies contested for the prizes: Miss Savage of Whittier was awarded the first prize, a gold watch; Mrs. McElfresh of Los Angeles took the second prize, a lady's side saddle; Mrs. Colby of Los Angeles was awarded the third prize, $10 in coin. She rode up to the Judge's stand, and told them graph, he shook a small sack containing what he said was painter's tools near David's face, telling him that he was looking for work, was once well fixed and had a happy home, etc. David says he was uncommonly sleepy that night, and is of the opinion that there was something wrong about the sack that made him so. He thought nothing of it at the time, but is confident that he inhaled a substance that made him sleepy. He had a lot of writing to do that night, but was too sleepy to do it. He retired early and slept soundly until late at night, when he got up and raised the window of his bedroom. He slept over the store, and is convinced that the raising of the window served to frighten the robbers away. It was found that they had stolen $100 from the drawer. When the robbery was discovered in the morning he and his brother set out for Rincón, and overtook the two strangers, arrested them and took them to Santa Ana, where they were jailed, charged with the robbery. Their trial came up on Tuesday morning. The evidence presented against the accused, although damaging, was not sufficient to convict, and they were discharged. The County Fair.

Seventeen babies were exhibited. Ernest Zimmerman of Santa Ana, six months old, took first prize for boys, a dozen photographs from Conway; Bobby Bouth of Orange, eleven months old, took second prize, silver knife, fork and spoon; Fern Wetzel of Orange, eight months old, took first girl's prize; a dozen photographs from Hamaker; Gladys Beckett of Garden Grove, eight months old, took second girl's prize, a silver cup. Pauline Remofer of Santa Ana was given a pair of shoes as a special prize for her good looks. Altogether the Fair was a success. The boisterous weather of the latter part of the week kept many away from this section who contemplated attending. Next year Anahism should have a display. We can make the finest locality display of any section in Southern California. Christian Endeavor Union.

Last Friday morning, during the prevalence of a Santa Ana wind, a spark from a passing Santa Fe engine ignited the weeds in the rear of Mr. Goldthwaite's residence, and a bad fire was averted only by the prompt interference of the neighbors. The Savings, Building & Loan Association met on Saturday evening. The association is one of the solid features of the town, and is constantly acquiring new subscribers. Every one should hold stock in it. It is a safe investment and a money saving institution. The funny man on the Los Angeles Times says: "It is becoming quite the fashion for prominent citizens of Anaheim to skip out and leave mourning creditors." This is too much! Do you hear that, Bob Wetzel, Doo Gardiner and Yours Truly Hounsom? The Fruit Growers' Union have called a stockholders' meeting at the Chamber of Commerce rooms in Los Angeles on November 5th, when important business will be transacted. One thousand shares in the association are held in Orange, Los Angeles and Ventura counties. Los Angeles parties are taking steps to establish a sugar factory on the Centinela ranch. Circulars have been sent to farmers which have for their object the securing of five thousand acres to be planted to sugar beets. As soon as this territory is secured the factory will be started. The honor of being the oldest voter on the register in town lies between Uncle George Miller and Uncle John A. Davis, as developed by an inspection of register the other day to decide a wager. Both were 79 when they registered, and are $1 now. If there is any older vetor in town let him stand up and claim the medal. Last Friday a brush fire started on the property of Prudencie Yorba and spread with great rapidity over the adjoining country. The property of many citizens of Yorba was threatened with destruction, but by the combined efforts of the people the fire was finally got under control. Flume No. 7 narrowly escaped destruction in the fire. The fire was presumably caused by a spark from a passing Santa Fe locomotive. The first payments of bounty under the law giving a bounty of two cents a pound on sugar produced in the United States were made out at the Treasury Department at Washington on Saturday. There are two claims and they were both in favor of the Chino Valley Sugar Company. The production was 340,000 pounds of beet sugar, and the bounty amounted to $6,500. The City Trustees met in special session yesterday afternoon to pass upon the introduction of an ordinance ratifying the form of the city bonds and fixing a place for their payment, as suggested by the Los Angeles attorney firm which uphold the legality of the bonds. The ordinance will probably be passed at the regular meeting of the board next Wednesday, and will appear next week. Sidney Holman is in receipt of several letters and papers from his son at the Stanford University, from which it is learned that the youth has passed the examinations necessary for admission into the colleges.

Bates, agent for the non-union Armstrong Fire Insurance Companies, is in receipt of several letters from responsible parties as to the reliability of his companies. Among the writers are John Bryson, Sr., of Los Angeles and J. B. Elliot, business manager of the San Francisco Chronicle, both of whom pronounce the companies to be in good standing. Both carry policies in the companies. A committee consisting of Dr. A. L. Cole of Santa Ana, J. S. Rice of Tustin and J. P. Zeyn of Anaheim have been appointed to investigate the standing of the companies for the benefit of the people of Orange county. The two former have since taken out policies in the companies. Our citizens may interview Mr. Zeyn or call upon S. P. Bates for any information. St. Michael's Church.

Sidney Holman is in receipt of several letters and papers from his son at the Stanford University, from which it is learned that the youth has passed the examinations necessary for admission into the colleges. The boy is entitled to his good fortune after going so far on his own hook to enter the lists. It is known that several hundred applications over the university's capacity to accommodate have been received by the faculty, and admission under such circumstances is all the more creditable. Soren Sorenson was convicted of horse stealing at Santa Ana the other day and was given the benefit of five years' imprisonment at Folemán. Sorenson is the chap who claims to be the champion egg cater of the coast, that fact have come out in the case of his arrest here some months ago on a charge of jumping his board bill. He could get away with several dazen eggs daily and not half try, so they say. He used to be a romping rover of the dark blue sea, but it's different with him now. W. J. Cole and Miss Emma Schneider were married at the bride's home on Thursday evening. The wedding was very quiet, and was attended by only the relatives and near friends of the bride and groom. After the ceremony the happy couple took their departure for Los Angeles on the 8 o'clock train. They go to San Francisco, thence through the East, and to New York on an extended visit to Mr. Cole's parents, and return some time in the latter part of November. We extend congratulations, and hope the happy couple may have a pleasant and prosperous journey through life.-We acknowledge the receipt of a generous slice of wedding cake. Many thanks, and may the troubles of the happy couple be nothing but little ones. San Pedro has had three bad fires during the week, two of them attended with loss of life. On Friday night an aged lady, an invalid, the mother of Mrs. Gen. Boschke, perished in the flames that consumed her son-in-law's residence, and on Saturday afternoon an old man named Dalton was burned to death in a house in which he lived that took fire by the overturning of an oil stove Francisco and Oakland while in a 60-acre spondency one day last week and drowned At latest accounts his body not been recovered. The Santa Ana Pool Sellers What the Santa Ana pool sellers know about "scull-duggery" is not well knowing. There have been swindlers horse races before, but the Santa Ana pool sellers can give them points and take game. A big crowd of sports fans very nicely taken in at Thursday's race; the way it was done was an awful sight see it. It happened in this wise: In the running race, half mile and repaint Marco Foster's horse Gambo sold choice $5 against a field of three horses at $2.10; the field was Bridge's horse Amazon, who outsiders thought ought to win. The team "plunged" on Gambo, and the outside contented themselves with buying pools. Amazon won in two straight holes but, lo! when the outsiders went to their checks, they were told Amazon been sold as second choice for a dollar. There was considerable "kicking," but was of no avail, and it is believed that sellers raked in the money themselves, of which goes to prove that people should buy pools on horse races, especially at Santa Ana.
