The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED JEVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchol, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY... DECEMBER 27, 1890. The action of the Tustin orange growers in selling to Earl must meet with severe condemnation from the orchardists who are forming themselves into associations for protection from the unscrupulous methods which Earl perhaps more than any other buyer is responsible for. It has been this person's boast that he would break up the associations. That is equivalent to saying that he would break up the growers. When, therefore, the Tustin growers, who were confidently expected to come into the association, sell out to him, their action excites no little adverse comment. Of course the associations will get along quite well without them, but they are pursuing the very tactics which if persevered in or if followed by any considerable number of others, must necessarily result in the collapse of the efforts of the growers in this method of protection. By association on the part of the growers has the price of fruit necessarily advanced, and Tustin thus takes advantage of the efforts of others, while their selfish action has done more than any one thing to disrupt the association. But when any commission man who has played fast and loose with the orange growers who have hitherto been so unfortunate as to be thrown into business relations with him announces autocratically that he will break up the only method of marketing the crop which holds out inducement to them to continue in the business, he evidently reckons without his host and is in the evident exercise of that pride that goeth before a fall. The Tustinners have labeled themselves with reproach. The official vote on Governor, which has just been sent out from Sacramento, and which appears in the tabulated statement printed on the first page, furnishes some interesting statistics of the recent election. Probably the most surprising circumstance connected therewith is the strength developed by the Populus, Webster polling 51,304 votes, to 111,944 for Budd, 110,738 for Fatee, and 10,561 for French. Webster was strong in the country precincts, getting a plurality, albeit of only 1, over Fatee in Humboldt county, and running well up with the leaders in Alameda, Freeso, Nevada, Sacramento San Diego, San Bernardino Tulare is asserted that the freight charges on this by reason of the canal would be $2 a ton less than now, which would be an annual saving to the wheat producers of the Pacific Coast of $3,600,000, for the price of wheat being fixed in London the wheat grower of this country pay the freight charges. The value of the canal to commerce is beyond question. If the canal shall be built United States will become much more compact for the purposes of commerce. THE CLIFF HOUSE BURNED. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 25. The Cliff House is on fire, and Adolph Sutro's big baths recently completed at a cost of $500,-000, are threatened. There are no means for fighting fire at the Cliff House and the nearest engine is about four miles away. The fire commenced at about 8:30 o'clock to night and at 9 o'clock about half of the Cliff House had been destroyed. The Cliff House was a world-famous resort, as it overlooks the Seal Rocks. It is part of the possessions of Adolph Sutro, San Francisco's Mayor-elect. The buildings of the Cliff House are frame structures and were used as restaurants, saloons and curio shops. In addition, there were wide balconies from which the seals could be viewed. About 100 feet to the north are the new salt-water baths, and connecting the two buildings are a row of sheds and fences. The baths are immense frame structures, capable of holding 20,000 people and are the largest in the world. They have been in course of construction for three months and a few months ago were opened to the public. On the heights above the Cliff House are Sutro's private residence and magnificent grounds, the latter of which are open constantly as a park to the public. It is not thought that the residence is in danger. The greatest fear is for the baths. Fire engines have gone from the city to the rescue and they may arrive in time to be of service. A strong wind is blowing at the cliff and so far there is nothing to keep the flames from spreading. The Cliff House buildings were erected about thirty years ago, and no visitor ever went away from San Francisco without first going to the Cliff House and looking at the seals. LATER—At 9:30 o'clock the Cliff was a mass of rains. The fire had uncontrolled headway and speedily burned itself out. The baths are not in danger. The monetary loss is not great, probably not over $20,000. TICKS FROM THE TELEGRAPH In the Federal Court at Huntsville, Alabama, Mrs. Ida Ross, widow of Robert C. Ross, who was shot and killed by the Skelton boys at Stevenson several months ago, because of his seduction of Annie Skelton, has been awarded a verdict of $16,000 against the Western Union Telegraph company because of the company's failure to deliver to Ross a message warning him that the Skelton boys were after him. Judge Boarman set aside the verdict as being excessive. Mrs. Ross sent the telegram from Canada to wrest the Cuban flour trade away from the United States. It is understood from authoritative sources that a question has been raised as to the right of the President to issue a retaliatory proclamation against Spain, such as Secretary Gresham has threatened. This proclamation, if made, would be under law of 1890, which authorizes retaliation against countries making unjust discriminations against the United States, but Spain claims she is making no unjust discrimination if she arranges her tariff in two countries according to whether countries are friendly or unfriendly to her and leaves these countries choose their own place. The recent American tariff putting sugar on the free list bad the effect of placing the country in Spain's first column, without any international discrimination on her part. Under these circumstances it is urged that Secretary Gresham had no authority to invoke the retaliatory law of 1890. The contending views are now being urged between the minister and the members of the Spanish cabinet, and definite results are expected this week. A "Singular" Costume. They were standing on a street corner waiting for a car. She was American; he was English. She delighted in proclaiming the glories of this new world, but he only elevated his beauty nose and answered every remark with that irritating phrase, "In the old country," etc. While they were waiting a pair of bicyclers, a man and a woman wheeled by. The woman was dressed decidedly "up to date." "Aw!" the Englishman remarked: "Knickerbockers!" The girl looked in surprise. "Do you mean the woman in bloomers?" "Yes, but in the old country," you know, we call 'em knickerbockers." Miss America hardly knew how she answer his know it all manner. She floored it would be rude to change her conversation too abruptly, so she simply said: "By way, do you call 'a pair of knickerbockers' singular or plural?" The Englishman glanced after her treating bicyclers. "Plural," he said: "as applied to men, but in the case of women—singular." —Boston Budget. A Yearly Newspaper. What would you think of a year newspaper—one that is only printed once through the twelve month? These are at least two such in the world, and there may be more. One is called The Eskimo Bulletin. It is issued every year at Prince of Wales' Cape, Boring strait on the arrival at that isolated place on the yearly steamer. This brings news from the outer world, and the paper that has something to print besides in local news that everybody knows any rate. The other paper is printed Paris, and it comes out once a year now just to preserve its name. The Twentieth The official vote on Governor, which has just been sent out from Sacramento, and which appears in the tabulated statement printed on the first page, furnishes some interesting statistics of the recent election. Probably the most surprising circumstance connected therewith is the strength developed by the Populists, Webster polling 51.304 votes, to 111,944 for Budd, 110,738 for Eatee, and 10,561 for French. Webster was strong in the country precincts, getting a plurality, albeit of only 1, over Eatee in Humboldt county, and running well up with the leaders in Alameda, Fresno, Novada, Sacramento, San Diego, San Bernardino, Tulare and San Luis Obispo. He fell short in San Francisco, polling 6,459 votes, to 32,069 for Budd, and 20,615 for Estee. He received 526 votes in Orange county; and were the votes of San Francisco, Los Angeles and Oakland, the three centers of population, to be omitted from the canvass, he would come very near having a plurality in the total vote of the State. There is no denying the fact that the Populists are "here to stay," and with the same increase as has characterized their progress in the past two years the party will come near enough to naming the next Governor to make them a factor of no little solicitude to the two older parties. The Prohibitionists seem to have cat but a small figure politically, and as a party will rather retrograde than show any such decided gains as the Populists. Of all the Populists running for office, our own Louis Luckel polled the most votes. The returns give him 68,344 while Paris, his Democratic opponent, received 73,668—something over 5,000 more—and Fitzgerald, with a plurality over Paris of 14,202, received 107,870. Luckel polled 17,140 votes more than Webster, and while the worst beaten Populist on the ticket—McGlynn for Secretary of State—is some 24,000 votes behind his Democratic opponent, and about 75,000 behind the successful Republican candidate, Luckel shaves the distances between himself and his Democratic opponent to 5,324, and runs near enough to Fitzgerald to make the race at least interesting. Yet only 259,927 votes were cast for Attorney General, while 234,447 were polled for Governor—a falling off of 14,000 votes. Here we have probably the most obscure Populist nominee running away ahead of the other well-known and really capable men on his ticket. Castro, Democrat, for Treasurer, polls 85.119 votes—11,000 more than Paris, and altogether the crusade made against him on account of his being a farce dealer failed to have much effect in the result. The largest number of votes cast for any proposition was the vote on the educational qualification for suffrage—169,744, a majority of 137,549. The vote against increasing the pay of legislators comes next—146,680, a majority of 100,972 against it. We commend a perusal of the returns to our readers. That is a disgraceful state of affairs which exists in Los Angeles over the manner of working up evidence to cheat insurance companies, as has been unearthed in the Mead case. Mead's life was insured for $40,000, and on his death some time ago, the insurance headway and speedily burned itself out. The baths are not in danger. The monetary loss is not great, probably not over $20,000. TICKS FROM THE TELEGRAPH In the Federal Court at Huntsville, Alabama, Mrs. Ida Ross, widow of Robert C. Ross, who was shot and killed by the Skelton boys at Stevenson several months ago, because of his seduction of Annie Skelton, has been awarded a verdict of $16,000 against the Western Union Telegraph company because of the company's failure to deliver to Kiss a message warning him that the Skelton boys were after him. Judge Bearman set aside the verdict as being excessive. Mrs. Ross sent the telegram from Scottboro to Stevenson, whither Rosas had gone by private conveyance to take the train. The Skelton boys overtook him at Stevenson and shot him to death. Robert Johnson and wife of Pittsburg had for visitors Christmas Day Daniel Herron and wife of Wilkinsburg. The whole party partook freely of liquor, and late in the afternoon the men quarreled. Herron drew a revolver and was about to shoot Johnson when Mrs. Johnson stepped between them and received a forty four calibre bullet in her breast in the neighborhood of her right lung. She will die. While Johnson went to summon a physician the Herrons escaped. Kansas City's "Little Italy" celebrated Christmas eve with a horrible murder. In a tough saloon there Monday night Gabriel Spinola was killed by Gustafe Constalutie, the barkeeper. Spinola was drunk and gave vent to his feelings by breaking a heavy botle over the bar. Euruged at the set Constalutio picked up a fragment of the broken bottle and rushing at Spinola thrust its ragged edges into his throat. Spinola's jugular vein was cut and his face and neck were horribly mutilated. He died after being taken to the hospital. The murderer escaped. The Pacific Insurance Union is on the verge of dissolution and serious war in its surance rates is imminent. Three more companies have withdrawn from the compact, and have joined with Arthur E. Magill of the Phoenix and Home in leaving the union. They are the Commercial Union, Fireman's Fund and Home Mutual, rated among the strongest companies doing business on the coast, and it is believed that their action will be the deathblow to the union. Mrs. C. A. Spreckel's of San Francisco is searching for a sunburst. It is a sunburst of diamonds and is valued at considerably over $2,000. It contains about fifty brilliant diamonds and was given to her some years ago by her husband. She lost it a few nights ago while attending a swell reception, or while on the way to the reception, she is not sure which. Senator Blanchard of Louisiana has presented a petition numerously signed by caneau growers of his State for the payment of the bounty of 1894. The petitionors represent that they are poor people and that relying upon the Government to pay the bounty they contracted obligations which in view of the repeal of the bounty law, and the refusal of the Treasury to pay the bounty is certain to bring ruin upon them unless relief is furnished. They report that much of their outlay was for implements for sugarcane culture which are useless for other work. Ralph Sigert of Norwalk shot and killed James Houston Sunday evening for trying to get Mrs. Sigert to run away with him. Sigert came upon the couple in a clump of willows and shot Houston with a double-barreled shotgun.

Its publishers think that will be a very fine name for a journal when the twentieth century is actually hot and for fear some one will get ahead them in it they will issue their paper once a year until 1900, and thus be fini in the field.-New York Times. The "Autocrat" Sometimes Nodded. Dr. Holmes paid as little heed to this dictum of the rhetoricians that a sentence should not end with a preposition or other important word as did the other author of a work on rhetoric laid down the rule: "A preposition should not be used to end a sentence with." Dr Holmes ended not only sentences but chapters with prepositions and other insignificant words. For each ample chapter 0 of "Elsei Venen ends with the words 'attend to,'" as chapter 12 of the same novel ends with the words "die of."-Boston Tracript. The Just Fear of God.

Andrew GILLISON Secretary Anaheim Dec 15，1944 THAT is a disgraceful state of affairs which exists in Los Angeles over the manner of working up evidence to cheat insurance companies, as has been unearthed in the Mead case. Mead's life was insured for $40,000, and on his death some time ago, the insurance companies paid over to his widow $35,000. Objection was made by an accident insurance company to paying the remaining $5,000, and on investigating the case detectives found that men were on hand ready to swear to any evidence necessary to get the money from the insurance company. One of these men appears to be D. W. Hudson, of unenviable notoriety, formerly of this place, who is charged with being implicated, with a gang of swindlers ready to swear to evidence of any kind to raise money. Other parties are charged with implication in the scheme, one being ex-Assemblyman Young of San Diego. Mead and Hudson were partners in selling real estate, and a year or so ago were arrested on a charge of swindling a woman out of a large sum of money on bogus land sale. Parties familiar with the former's career are of the opinion that, finding a penitentiary sentence awaiting him for his misdeeds, he loaded up with life insurance and suicided. Hudson and his pals gave evidence that Mead was run over by a horse and buggy, and that he died from the effects of the accident. This testimony is doubted, and detectives are after the guilty parties, and a term in prison will probably be their reward. New Orleans is now 15,032 miles from San Francisco by way of the cape. The Nicaragua canal route between the two cities would be 4,047 miles, a saving of 11,005 miles. San Francisco is now 150 miles nearer to Liverpool than New York by the Cape Horn route. The canal would save California traffic 6,996 miles on a voyage to Liverpool, and New York would be nearer than Liverpool to the Pacific metropolis by 2,748 miles. The benefit of this change would not be wholly with the Pacific coast. Liverpool also would gain important advantages over New York; for it would be brought closer to Melbourne by 392 miles, to Yokohama by 3,929 miles and to Hongkong by 1,265 miles. It is estimated that the Pacific Coast ships about 1,800,000 tons of wheat and flour a year to the Atlantic ports and to Europe. It view of the repeal of the county law, and the refusal of the Treasury to pay the bounty, is certain to bring ruin upon them unless relief is furnished. They report that much of their outlay was for implements for sugar culture which are useless for other work. Ralph Sigert of Norwalk shot and killed James Houston Sunday evening for trying to get Mrs. Sigert to run away with him. Sigert came upon the couple in a clump of willows and shot Houston with a double-barreled shotgun. Strained Relations With Spain WASHINGTON, Dec. 25. — Interesting developments are expected as a result of the strained relations between the United States and Spain over the tariff. Secretary Gresham has directed Minister Taylor at Madrid to notify the Spanish government if the United States is not removed from the "first column" list of countries not having satisfactory treaties this country will retaliate. It is not believed Spain will yield to the protest of Secretary Gresham. In that event President Cleveland will probably issue a proclamation closing American ports to products of Spain. The first effect of this will be to shunt out enormous shipments of raw sugar which come to this country, and cause a sharp advance in the price besides closing refineries and throwing out of work many thousands. In official circles it is said that Cuba furnishes seven-eighths of all the sugar and Louisiana and Hawaii the rest; but it is said it would be impossible to make up the seven-eighths now drawn from Cuba. It is also asserted, therefore, by those in no way identified with or partial to the sugar reineries, that the action would cut them off from their supplies and close them out. throwing 20,000 employees out of work. This statement was made by a high official who had much to do with the negotiations, and who is very apprehensive of its results. He added that the ultimate effect of the war would be to advance the price from 3 to 6 per cent a pound, thus making the public bear the burden. In levying duties Spain arranges countries in two columns. The first column includes those who have not entered into satisfactory treaty arrangement with Spain. Until recently Brazil was the only country on the globe which Spain had put in this column, all other countries being in the "second column," which includes those having satisfactory treaties. The United States now joins Brazil in Spain's "first column," and thus stands apart from other countries in the common benefits Spain grants. The immediate effect of Spain's action has already proved disastrous to the American trade in flour and this trade has passed almost exclusively into hands of Canada. Under the old reciprocity arrangement with Spain, American flour was shipped to Cuba in great quantities. But when the United States tariff raised the duty on Cuban sugar, Spain responded by raising the duty on American flour: The duty on flour is $475 in the first column, while the "second column" is $4. As Canada is in the second column, she enjoys an advantage of 75 cents a barrel on flour, and this has proved ample to allow STERLING SILVER NOVELTIES PRERVING ½ SIZE NO.1 POCKET KNIFE £350 NO.2 THERMOMETER 3.25 NO.3 KEY TAG 7.75 NO.4 TOOTHPIK CASE 1.50 NO.5 SILVER PURSE 2.75 NO.6 HAIR PIN CASE 2.75 NO.7 HAIR PIN TRAY 4.50 ENGRAVINGS ABOUT ½ SIZE OF ORIGINAL MAIL ORDERS A SPECIAL FEATURE.
