We have received the following correspondence concerning the matter of the abandonment of operations in the irrigation district: Editor Gazette:—Well, we have held our election and voted practically unanimously to suspend operations, as an irrigation district, and having so voted, why of course we shall discontinue, but when, where and how, is still an unsettled question in my mind, and I think that I am not the only one in the fog, in regard to the matter—hence I beg leave to ask the honorable Board of Directors of the Anaheim Irrigation district through the columns of your valuable paper, a few questions, and I am sure that their answers will very much interest the people of this community. Section 4, of the District Irrigation Law, provides that: "An election shall be held in each district on the first Wednesday in February, 1895, and on the first Wednesday in February in each second year thereafter, at which an Assessor, a Collector and a Treasurer, and a Board of Directors shall be elected." Do you intend to call this election on the first Wednesday of February, 1895, and if so why has not the call been made in our public newspapers? If no call is made, or election held, as I am informed is the advice of Judge Brousseau, Judge Brousseau has not yet advised the board. Will not a question of the legality of the action of the old board of Directors so holding over, be raised in the final settlement of the affairs of the district that will block the attempt to discontinue the district and involve us in litigation for years to come? Respectfully yours, F. R. HOLCOMB. The district will be abandoned, we take early occasion to inform our correspondent, just as soon as operations may be legally discontinued. The question of electing new officers is one that has engaged the attention of the board seriously for months past, but they, in common with all the rest of the taxpayers, had hoped that final abandonment would come before the time for calling this election in February. We believe Judge Brousseau will advise calling the election, but if he can legally see a clear way out of it, he will not cause this extra expense to the people. If all the taxes levied to pay up the outstanding obligations had been paid, instead of a large portion of it becoming delinquent, disorganization had been effectually accomplished by the first of February. But many have refused to pay, and their property will appear in the usual delinquent list, the work of which was let by competitive bid by the Collector on Tuesday, and the same will go through the regular process of delinquent sale. The law provides no other course. This will take the district beyond the first Wednesday in February, and at this writing it seems to us new officers will have to be elected. If the Board of Directors could resign their offices to-morrow and wind up the district's affairs legally by that time, we think they would do so willingly, and be grateful SUGAR BEET RAISING. POSSIBILITIES FOR THE GROWER IN THEIR PRODUCTION. Editor Anaheim Gazette. — Sir: By way of encouragement to the farmers of your section, who have come to know how to grow sugar beets as a crop successfully—it may not be amiss to call their attention at this time to the possible uses to be made of the same in the near future other than that of sugar making. Sugar and alcohol are identical, they contain the same constituent elements although of different form. The best sugar producing plant will produce the most alcohol. Unquestionably the sugar beet, bred up as it has been for the past fifty years or more with special reference to the production of sugar, now leads all others in saccharine richness, and were the methods of its manufacture into alcohol as well defined as making it into sugar; no doubt its use now for alcohol making would be general. The method and experience only are now lacking. Alcohol in this country is now largely made of corn, which is a long way inferior to the sugar beet in sucrose. Had our corn been bred up with special reference to alcohol making as has been the sugar beet for sugar making the past fifty years, no doubt it would now be a long way ahead in the production of alcohol; in fact, such breeding up for such purpose would have resulted in making it sugar corn with as much sucrose in one bushel now as there was fifty years age in three bushels. However, the possibilities of such results as to corn they cannot be brought alone in one day, as it involves too much time. The quicker and shorter cut is to learn to make alcohol out of sugar beets already bred up as before stated. The low price of beets in Europe has called attention to this new departure for relief to the beet grower, and the experiments going on there now are likely to result in establishing the business on a firm basis. At Omaha, Nebraska, a distillery has recently been established for the manufacture of alcohol from beet molasses, a low bi-product of beet sugar making, heretofore little value which it is said is a pronounced success. Surely this is a good beginning in this direction and if a success from the tailings there can be no question as to the result when once a start is made in making alcohol from the original product, prime rich sugar beets. I would also call attention to the growing of sugar beets for seed, a broad field for profit to those who will take the matter up intelligently, beginning in a small way and learning the methods and just how to do it to the best advantage and with the best results. There may be times when the sugar factories are overstocked for sugar making, then in such case the overplus can readily be carried over and utilized for growing seed the coming year. At once an outlet for over-production, which should not be lost sight of. It is said beet seed will generate for seven to ten years after it is grown. This being the case the grower at once finds he has a crop properly stored that need not be rushed into market to be sold FABLES OF THE DAY THE IMPECUNIOUS EDITOR AND DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS. An Impecunious Editor, sending his signature to Delinquent Subscribers, mailed a message of account to one in a District showing the arrearages of his subscriber Quick came the reply by post; “You have forgotten the dollar and paid you in 1867, a couple of years after and for which I hold your receipt.” With the accent on the Receipt Moral of this is that while we live Present, it is best to let the Past Digest its Receipts. A Secretary of an Irrigation District giving his signature to a number W Against the Treasury, put his name Place Where the President's ought and singularly enough the President graph was affixed to the scroll wizard's ought to be. A Neighboring Banker detected that and pronounced the Warrants No G. The printing had been done in the job office, in the usual highest style art. “You unmitigated Scoundrel!” or Secretary to the meek and lorror, rushing into the Sanctum with stick Brandished Aloft and fiery eye Editor retreating hastily up tilt “What despicable means are these employed to bring my efforts to Come down from the loft and I ask you a lesson,” still Brandishing them. But the Editor declined. “Did’s name ‘Secretary’ printed plainly your scroll provided for thy signature?” or as he climbed still further up the loft. “Yes! But what’s that got to do?” And did the President likewise print and flourish on the War videoed for the affixing of his signature. “Confound your picture, but what got to do with it? How does it come may name is in the wrong place, and the President likewise, and my effort naught, and Goldwater refuses to do So the editor, his patience ceasing virtue, descended from the loft and up the floor with him. Moral—Virtue is its Own Rewild likewise bet upon yourself to the Land. A Poverty Stricken Editor, still out mute and dispassionate Appeal forwarded a bill to an August Person Distinguished Lineage, who owed period covering no less than seventy days of delinquent subscription. Quoth the August Person of Discussion “Fifteen years of this subscript passed into outlawry, and I shall quent, disorganization had been effectually accomplished by the first of February. But many have refused to pay, and their property will appear in the usual delinquent list, the work of which was let by competitive bid by the Collector on Tuesday, and the same will go through the regular process of delinquent sale. The law provides no other course. This will take the district beyond the first Wednesday in February, and at this writing it seems to us new officers will have to be elected. If the Board of Directors could resign their offices to-morrow and wind up the district's affairs legally by that time, we think they would do so willingly, and be grateful for the privilege. But they cannot, and disorganization must ensue according to the legal formula. All the property held by the district, including lands purchased at delinquent sale, must be disposed of at public auction, and likely enough those taxpayers who allowed their property to be sold at delinquent sale will be permitted to buy their land back at cost, to clear title. If there be any surplus after that, the residue must be divided provata among the taxpayers. After this shall be done a final decree of court will be entered legally dissolving the district. It may be six months or a year before that is finally accomplished. As to calling the election to choose new officers, there is still time for that, and at any rate the old officers must hold over until their successors are elected and qualified. New officers will have to give new bonds, which will be somewhat difficult in the present state of affairs, and, as we approach the summit of disorganization, it seems that complications, like Alps on Alps, arise. But disorganization will come as speedily as possible, and just so soon as a decree of court can be entered dissolving the district, the same will be done, and we shall finally reach the apex of disorganization, with the least possible expenditure of time and money compatible therewith. The Directors of the Water Company have in preparation acircular stockholders showing the work accomplished during the year, and that under contract, and in contemplation. Final estimates are presented upon the South branch and East street cement ditches and other improvements that have been carried on during the year and an outline of the present carrying capacity is set forth in detail. The sale of water during 1894 amounted to $13,700, while the year before, which had the largest sales of any year up to that time in the history of the company, the sales aggregated $6,500. Here we have a doubling of the water sales, which has been brought about by cementing the main ditch. Eight heads of water are now delivered at the western limits of the ditch, where before the cementing of the ditch only two could be delivered. The company's debt is being refunded at a lower rate of interest, and altogether the affairs of the company are in very satisfactory condition.

HAVEMEYER has sent on to Washington a delegation of New York sugar importers to intercede with the Secretary of the Treasury, BANK ROBBERY AT ONTARIO. The Ontario bank was robbed of $5,000 by two men at noon on Friday last. The cashier was locked in the vault, and a customer of the bank, entering at the time of the robbery, was clubbed into insensibility and left for dead. The robbers escaped. While several arrests have been made, the guilty parties are still at large. At Riverside—the officers arrested two men who had just come in from the hills where they had been hunting. One of them proved to be a minister. Both were released. POMONA, January 9.-Notwithstanding there have been over sixty persons out hunting for the two men who robbed the State Bank of Ontario on Friday morning nothing has been learned concerning their identity or where they have gone. The bold bank robbery and the escape of the desperadoes has beenthe sole topic of discussion in Pomona valley for three days and every stranger in the valley or in Northern Riverside county has had to give an account of himself at the time of the crime. It was thought certain that an arrest of the guilty parties would be made by this afternoon, but this eveningthe detectives seem more discouraged than ever at prospect of ever getting the robbers. Some ofthe detectives from Los Angeles have coased working onthe case and gone home. It transpires that over an hour and a half elapsed before any one started uponthe track ofthe robbers onthe dayof their crime, and it was a longer time before any real effort towardthe captureof them at Ontario. The robbers were seen by several persons onthe road southward from Ontario to Chino and when last seen were near Rincón Hills. A heavy rainstorm came upa few hours later and all tracks were obliterated inthe mud and water. Many people say that ifthe thievesare not caughtto-day their escape mayas wellbe counted uponas settled. NO SUGAR BOUNTY.

HAVEMEYER has sent on to Washington a delegation of New York sugar importers to intercede with the Secretary of the Treasury for a change in the sugar schedule, and setting forth that the ad valorem impost should be levied upon polariscopic tests instead of upon the invoice. While the Secretary has granted the importers the privilege of submitting briefs, he cannot for a moment so rash as to think of permitting the change. Their request is nothing more or less than to be given an opportunity of avoiding to a large extent the impost levied upon sugar. With the tariff based upon polariscopic tests, nothing would prevent them from so deteriorating the quality of the raw sugar imported as to lower the duty paid upon it to a very material extent. The Trust would import the same amount of raw sugar probably, but their contributions for governmental revenue would be based upon the adulterated article, and thus save to them a very respectable amount which the authors of the Wilson bill designed should go toward the support of the government. Yet there is danger that this outrageous request may be granted. The Government is in lack of revenue. No sugar has been imported since Havemeyer’s Trust turned over a cool ten million in the importation of raw sugar previous to the levying of the present tariff tax. These importers will in all likelihood represent that sugar importations will continue to be nil so long as the present tariff tax remains as fixed by the bill. But if the import be changed to a tariff levied upon polariscopic tests—or, in other words, if the Trust be given a chance to evade payment of the tariff—the importations of raw sugar will at once turn into the Treasury a large amount which will be calculated to forestall the necessity of another bond issue.

Case was brought as a test suit. An appeal to the United States Supreme Court is to planters, the case having gone past them in all inferior tribunals.
