The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuckel. Charles Kuckel, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY...FEBRUARY 13, 1896 That the tribulation attending the orange industry of California is not confined to the scale nor smalt aliment is apparent from the recent appearance among our orange growers of a pest quite entirely different in character. While this new pest does not in any particular affect nor impair the fruit, neither does it affect the tree or its bearing capacity. Its infliction upon the community at this particular time is evidently for a different purpose. This pest to which we refer was made the subject of an article in last week's issue of this paper, wherein we briefly paid our respects to that certain publication purporting to be the Orange Trade Reporter. Recent editions of the publication in question confirm the opinion previously expressed regarding its character and mission. That it is piratical in character bearing false colors and manned by the same familiar crew which have in years past fed and fattened in wealth at the expense of the orange grower is a fact too evident to be questioned. Upon its register appear the names of Earl, Porter, Thacker and others. All honorable men. Nevertheless their appearance in any community familiar with their method of dealing is sufficient cause to create a feeling of insincerity, and well it may after the experience which many of our citizens have had with them. Since the inauguration of the exchange system of marketing the orange crop it has been a current report that one of the prominent outside shippers had asserted that he would expend $25,000 if necessary to defeat the object of the exchange. If there exists an individual orange grower who believes that this prominent outside shipper would spend one dollar in the interest or behalf of the producer we venture the assertion that he is far removed from Orange county. We notice that number three of the sheet to which we refer published and distributed at the expense of outside shippers, bewails the treatment given one R. E. Bruner by the agent of the exchance at Kansas City, quoting Mr. Bruner's words to the effect that he (Bruner) had been refused a car of seedlings, for which he had tendered cash payment. This being a serious charge affecting not nothing for themselves must expect to get the least possible that will induce them to work. Let the sugar-beet company on wheels disorganize and then let the farmers interview Spreckels and see if we cannot get a sugar factory. SUGAR. EDITOR GAZETTE.—Why has a Republican Congress, seeking governmental revenue and hoping to benefit the industries of the country a little, turned down sugar, and sugar alone? If more revenue is the desired end, there is no better field to work in than sugar. If they had any desire to save a languishing industry, fearfully crippled and hindered by the Wilson bill, then the growing of sugar beets and cane and manufacturing the same into sugar is that crippled industry. With two such good reasons for including sugar in the 15% advance we ask why is sugar turned down? Senator Perkins and those Senators who have stood with him have shown themselves capable of seeing that to which others have been blind—namely that it has been demonstrated that with careful fostering by the government the growth of sugar beets and the manufacture of the same into sugar can be made one of the most important industries of our country. This means employment for thousands of workmen, and the saving of over $100,000,000 annually sent out of the country to buy sugar. With these things in view does it not seem very strange that any Republican Senator will be indifferent or absolutely opposed to fostering such an industry? Here is a possible opportunity of having a Democratic free trade President agree to an increase of a revenue tariff, not because of any benefit it may be to any American industry, but because his administration needs money with which to exist, and yet a Republican House and a Republican Senate turas down sugar as unworthy of more protection. Why do they thus treat sugar? Some affirm that it is because it is already protected above certain interests of their States, but it's sufficiently protected to enable the industry to grow? It seems to one who is not a statesman that that is not a statemanlike manner to view all such questions, and not be like the dog in the manger. Because my section cannot get what it should have, you never shall by my vote. Statesmen, look around you, don't you know that this is one country, and that when one section of it is benefitted and prosperous, so is the whole body benefited? We appeal to Senator Perkins and those Senators who are working with him, to stand firmly by their convictions, and urge others to put behind them the dog in the manger principle, and act for the welfare of any section of their country that they can possibly help. The help will be but slight it is true, but it will encourage farmers to hope for better things when a Republican President cars of Highland oranges have been sold by the Exchange for less than freight charges, the least returns for any car being several hundred dollars above freight charges. "The small courtesy of inquiry either at this office, or the exchange office, or the association office at Highlands would have secured for your correspondent the necessary information for a correct statement. The terms, 'It is said' and 'It is stated' are as usual too general to be of value. Respectfully, (Signed) A. H. NAFTZGER. "President Southern California Fruit Exchange." The above quotation from the Times is so gross a misrepresentation that we could not let it passed unchallenged. We have the cordial indemnement and support of such great organizations as the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, the Meschante' Union, the Board of Trade, and generally of the newspapers of Southern California. If the representative of the press will apply at exchange headquarters these complications cannot possibly arise, as we always stand ready to give correct information concerning exchange matters. We wish this to be distinctly understood and shall hereafter conclude that newspapers basing their report of our affairs upon rumor and outside statements are unfriendly to the exchange system. Respectfully, A. H. NAFTZGER. HE LOST THE GIRL. But Got a Satisfactory Dig at His Rival Before He Died. He and her father were great friends. As only four persons figure in this story it is unnecessary to mention names. He had a rival for her affections, and her father could never understand why she preferred the rival to him. One day when he sat on the porch chatting with her father she called him into the parlor and told him frankly that she had promised to marry his rival. He did not plead or beg. He kissed her hand with a sort of reverence, and then returned to his seat on the porch and renewed the conversation with her father. In those few moments everything seemed to have changed for him. The sun did not shine as brightly; the birds did not sing as they did before. Even the grass and trees seemed scar and dead. He had expected what he had just heard, but that did not seem to abate the shock. He was distrait and moody. Her father saw this and asked him the cause. He blurted out the whole miserable truth. Her father continued to polish his glasses carefully and then said: "Wimmen folks is mighty onsartin critters." Her father said nothing more, but nothing would change her mind. Gradually it came to be generally known that he had been rejected, and that his rival was the fortunate wooer. They, he and his rival, were alumni of the same college. He was down for a speech at the alumni dinner. A month would expend $25,000 if necessary to detain the object of the exchange. If there exists an individual orange grower who believes that this prominent outside shipper would spend one dollar in the interest or behalf of the producer we venture the assertion that he is far removed from Orange county. We notice that number three of the sheet to which we refer published and distributed at the expense of outside shippers, bewails the treatment given one R. E. Bruner by the agent of the exchange at Kansas City, quoting Mr. Bruner’s words to the effect that he (Bruner) had been refused a car of seedlings, for which he had tendered cash payment. This being a serious charge, effecting not only the agent of the exchange, but reaching the interest of the orange grower, we resolved to investigate the matter for the benefit and satisfaction of the more interested party, the orange grower. We find the fact to be substantially as follows: That Mr. Bruner formerly acted as broker for exchange fruit at Kansas City; that for cause he was suspended by Mr. Hazzard; that he (Bruner) wanted to handle exchange fruit the present season; that he could only do so by direct purchase, and that as Mr. Bruner had no rating by either Bradstreet or Dunn, which would justify the exchange intrusting him with their property; consequently Mr. Hazzard was instructed to sell him fruit only upon cash payment for the same. These terms we understand to be similar to the execution of the Times of Los Angeles for its service to the outside shippers. We learn that Mr. Hazzard in compliance with instruction from the exchange has at all times been not only ready but willing to deal with Mr. Bruner upon these terms; that Mr. Bruner never tendered Mr. Hazzard cash payment for a car of fruit; that the charge as published and promulgated by and at the expense of the "honorable outside shipper" regarding the matter, is not only false but malicious, with intent of creating distrust as to the exchange system. It is useless to state that the several exchanges are under the direct management of orange growers, men of ability, fully equal to the needs and requirements for the successful management of marketing the fruit under their control. The exchanges wage no war against outside shippers, neither do they seek favors at their hands, but kindly suggest to them that lastand of expending $25,000 to break up the exchanges that they place the money where it rightfully belongs—by payment on account of obligations and violated contracts with orange growers. With a wry face and the excuse of being sick, to enlist the sympathies of the gullibles, Dr. Van Norman exploded again the old chestnut at the best meeting on Monday, of the chances being never better for the selling of the bonds, after which he retired, and the President of the great corporation took the reins of management in his hands with his usual vigorous style. A request for an explanation of the wonderful growth of the indebtedness from $1,500 last year to its present respectable proportion of $4000, which is about $1.25 a share, was promptly sat down upon and ruled out of order. Here was an expense of $2,500, or $8 per day for the last year. It was evident that President was not anxious to explain this obsep and economical interests of their States, but it is especially protected to enable the industry to grow! It seems to one who is not a statesman that that is not a statemanlike manner to view all such questions, and not be like the dog in the manger. Because my section cannot get what it should have, you never shall by my vote. Statesmen, look around you, don't you know that this is one country, and that when one section of it is benefitted and prosperous, so is the whole body benefited? We appeal to Senator Perkins and those Senators who are working with him, to stand firmly by their convictions, and urge others put behind them the dog in the manger principle, and act for the welfare of any section of their country that they can possibly help. The help will be but slight it is true, but it will encourage farmers to hope for better things when a Republican President can approve of the acts of a Republican Congress. T. J. JONES. AT THE COUNTY SEAT. BY DR. GARNER. Over at the county seat, Sweet Marle, There are no street cars on the street that one can see. M. J. Bundy without fear Hung his specks upon one car And he started the cars last year, Sweet Marle When a stranger comes to town, Sweet Marle If he wants to run around the sights to see, He can see the street car track From a costly 'buss or hack That relieves a well-filled sack, Sweet Marle Holy gee, how Bunde Fooled the citizen and trustee For they thought it would never be; They all thought it was a bluff So they handled Bundy round And he stopped the cars, that's tough, Sweet Marle I thought that I would die, Sweet Marle When I listened to Frank Ey make a plea He just asked for a franchise And gave outlines of its size Where another road would rise, Sweet Marle He of course would buy a mule, Sweet Marle And would bring the kids to school, and you see All the people along his lines Would come in and spend their dimes And boom the town with better times, Sweet Marle Yes, Frank Ey now will try In the sweet by and by To run a street car line high and dry Up to Orange run and back again Through the sunshine and the rain And at the depot meet a train, in a plg's eye. A HORRIBLE DEED. One of the most brutal outrages that has come to light in many years occurred Monday evening in Los Angeles. Fred Standler, a young man recently from the East, was walking along San Fernando street between seven and eight o'clock and was about to cross the viaduct into East Los Angeles, when he was accosted by two men who ordered him to hand over what money he had about his person. Standler replied that he was a stranger in the city and penniles. The hold-ups, however insisted that he did have money, and at the same time grabbing him and throwing him to the ground. They then placed a bag in his mouth and gave him to understand that unless he informed them where he had his money concealed they would inflict a brutal outrage upon his person. Standler did not dream that the men would carry out their threats, and made no movement towards complying with their demands. The fiends then jumped upon his person, and one of the party drew out a knife and partially emasculated him. The fiends then took to their heels, leaving their victim to get assistance the best he could. As soon as discovered he was brought to the receiving hospital, where the police surgeon attended him. The next morning Standler was taken to the county hospital. In making his statement, he could not state whether his assailants were black or white. The place where the deed was committed was pretty dark and he had little chance to take observations. SUPPRESSING THE FACTS. L. A. Express, Feb. 7th. Wimmen folks is mighty onsartin critters.” Her father said nothing more but nothing would change her mind. Gradually it came to be generally known that he had been rejected, and that his rival was the fortunate woeer. They, he and his rival, were alumni of the same college. He was down for a speech at the alumni dinner. A month before he had attended her wedding.No one ever heard him complain though all knew how he suffered. He was looked upon as the orator of his class,and a great speech was expected. When he arose,a sinister glitter could be seen in his eye. He began to speak slowly.Ho took as his text “Acquired Tastes.”He spoke as length.Finally he said: “I called upon a dear friend some time ago who had just had a daughter married. He felt his loss very keenly I tried to console him,telling him that while he had lost a daughter he had gained a son.Ho said slowly to me: “Maybe I will come to like him after awhile—like I do my cigar,but the first few puffs ,are making me mighty sick.’” It was in Kentucky.Not a word was said then,但 just as the sun peeped over the hills next day two dark forms were seen silhouetted against tha sky.There were two flashes,a combined report—and one fell,never to rise again.It was ha.-New York Tribune. BICYCLE GUMS. Another Physical Peculiarity Said to Be Due to the Wheel. Bicycle riding and poor teeth are about the last two subjects one would place together,但 that an overfondness for indulgence in exercise upon tha wheel is developing a diseased condition of the gums and teeth can be tested to by many unfortunate victims and their dentists. It is caused by the extra effort needed in ascending hills or in running races,and the short,quick breaths of cold air that strike the overheated gum through open mouth develop a congestion of those parts.The face swollen as with an ordinary toothache,pup forms around-the-teeth and loosen them,and in many cases leads to their extraction later,and the pain is equivocal to having all one's teeth ulcerating once. A prominent dentist stated，when in terrified uponthe subject，that he had several cases of that kind.“Come,”he said,"from an abnormal current of air,从 fast riding,s striking the gums,and ifthe popularity ofthe bicycle continues it will develop a new feature in dentistry.At a private meetingof several dentiststhe other eveningwe found upon comparing notes these cases are increasing.The one preventive is a difficult one to followand that is always ride withthe mount closed.The same effect,theorycaused by an unnatural draft of air,afor instance,sitting in front of an elec tric machine for a long period.I had several cases of that nature from hotel stewards and their assistant whose offices are generally situated Dr. Van Norman exploded again the old chestnut at the best meeting on Monday, of the chances being never better for the selling of the bonds, after which he retired, and the President of the great corporation took the reins of management in his hands with his usual vigorous style. A request for an explanation of the wonderful growth of the indebtedness from $1,500 last year to its present respectable proportion of $4000, which is about $1.25 a share, was promptly sat down upon and ruled out of order. Here was an expense of $2,500, or $8 per day for the last year. It was evident that the President was not anxious to explain this obsoap and economical management, nor tell in whose pocket this money went, or how it came about; that he alone of all stockholders was enabled to execute a deed for 200 and some odd acres of land to the company, when he himself had no title to it. The inquiring mind of some of the stockholders had to be strangled and he decided that the business before the meeting was only for the election of Directors, to bamboozle the stockholders for another year. The nomination of about twelve gentlemen showed that the stockholders are not unanimous any longer. Of these twelve tour were pronounced as antagonists of the further continuance of the company, and even if none of them were elected, it was the first time that a pronounced opposition appeared at an election. No tree falls from the first blow. The vote plainly showed that the present Directors were put on the defense by the action of the opposition, and were not unanimous any more, everyone taking care of himself, as it was plainly shown by Mr. Capitain, who voted the Los Angeles proxies he held solid for himself. H. A. Pierce had the good sense to realize the futility of this co-operative scheme and declined any further connection with its management. The best joke of it all is, that the election is totally illegal by a clerical error in the ballots, which are as follows: "For Directors of the Anaheim Co-operative Best Sugar Company to serve during the ensuing year from February 11th, 1895." Whenever people want to engage in the sugar beet business they should organize, thoroughly inform themselves, and unite with capitalists on such fair and equitable terms as will give to each party its due proportion of profits. This due share can never be got by growers so long as they are disorganized and know no more of the business than capitalists engaged in it choose to tell them. Accordingly, those who attempt dream that the men would carry out their threats, and made no movement towards complying with their demands. The fiends then jumped upon his person, and one of the party drew out a knife and partially emasculated him. The fiends then took to their heels, leaving their victim to get assistance the best he could. As soon as discovered he was brought to the receiving hospital, where the police surgeon attended him. The next morning Standler was taken to the county hospital. In making his statement, he could not state whether his assailants were black or white. The place where the deed was committed was pretty dark and he had but little chance to take observations. SUPPRESSING THE FACTS. L. A. Express, Feb. 7th. The Times has been again caught in its usual tactics of wilfully suppressing the facts in its efforts to injure the orange crop of this section. It has transferred its animosity from Riverside to Highlands, apparently, although it continues to attack the Fruit Exchange, against which it is particularly bitter. The following letter is self-explanatory and the refusal of the Times shows its real animosity to the fruit grower of this section. If it was an honest and fair journal and was not the enemy of this section., it would have printed this letter. Twice now in three weeks has the Times been convicted of suppressing facts and deliberately publishing false statements and refusing to correct them when its attention was called to their untruth. Editor of the Evening Express: The following was handed to the Los Angeles Times on the fifth inst., and publication refused: "In the issue of the times this date under the head of San Bernardino county we find the following: "It is said that the Highland Association recently prepared a circular advertising the markets of its fruit, and sent many copies to the Eastern representatives of the Exchange for distribution. These agents refused to distribute, but sent them back to the main office of the Exchange in Los Angeles, where they are alleged to have been suppressed. "It is stated that several carloads of the choicest Highland oranges have failed to realize enough to pay the freight, and this is attributed to the indifference of Mr. Morehouse, the Eastern agent of the Exchange, to the interests of the orange grower." "It is difficult for the average man to see how a matter of this kind is of special interest to anybody except the orange growers in the exchange; but lost a wrong should be done, we beg you will grant us the same public medium given your correspondent, to say that both these statements are entirely without color or truth. The Highland association prepared and sent to the trade (not to the agents) such circulars as pleased themselves. None were returned to this office; none suppressed or sought to be suppressed at any time. Not one car nor any number of..." REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. For the Week Ending Feb. 10, 1896.
