The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Kuchel, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY... MAY 28, 1896 THE FAIRVIEW SCHOOL LOT. Considerable objection has arisen to the redeeding, to the original owner, by the School Trustees of this district, of the Fairview school lot, mention of which was made in these columns last week, and judging from the positive expression of opinion to be heard concerning it, it is doubtful if the proposition will be voted upon affirmatively at the election called for the purpose on Friday of next week. As mentioned last week, the lot, which embraces three acres, was originally deeded to the Fairview School Trustees by the late B. F. E. Kellogg, the records showing that the transfer was absolute and without consideration, along in 1875, and school was maintained in the schoolhouse put up thereon for a long term of years thereafter. Subsequently, on the district's becoming absorbed by the Anaheim school district, and when the fine two-story schoolhouse in the West End was erected, the school was discontinued, the scholars all attending the new school, and the old schoolhouse fell into disuse. The building of the new schoolhouse at Katella reduced for any recurrence of the usurpation off schoolhouse, and for a number of years it has not been used for school purposes. However it develops on a further investigation of the matter that the reoccupancy of the old schoolhouse is a matter that will press for attention in the very near future. Prof. Evans of the West End school reports that he will lose, at the close of the current school term, 13 pupils, by graduation or otherwise; but that he will have next term, according to the schoolcensus, an increase of 23, as compared with his present number. Here we have a gain of 10 in the classes usually showing the slowest increase; while the number of children in the primary grades is larger than ever, and on the increase constantly. In view of the fact that the West End school is crowded, that Katella school is filled, and that the rooms of the city school, especially the lower branches, are crowded to overflowing, the question arises, Would not the old Fairview schoolhouse, if opened up next year, be a record will stand—that, there being no evidence to the contrary, no process of revocation will be admitted. The matter is thus left to the voters of the district, to vote in accordance with their wishes, at the election a week from to-morrow. This expression of opinion will not, as we understand it, necessarily bind the School Trustees to carry out the stipulations of the vote. In fact, we understand the schoolboard is rather opposed to redeeding, on the eve of having use for the old schoolhouse. The polls will be open at the city schoolhouse between the hours of 8 o'clock in the morning and sundown. The school lot embraces three acres, and at a valuation of $100 per acre, ought to be worth $300. If the district is to be called upon next year to provide school facilities for the rapidly increasing population, certainly the redeeding proportion ought not to carry. Memorial Day. EDITOR GAZETTE.—The memorial sermon to Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., delivered in the Presbyterian Church on Sunday morning last by Rev. Mr. Stone, brought to mind that the yearly recurring service of decorating soldiers' graves is again at hand; and as we approach with our offerings of flowers we thus pay our tribute of respect and love to those whose ashes we guard with sodulous care. An interval of years has elapsed since the writer, who wore the grey, had the privilege of uniting with you in the observance with vividness she hallowed memories of those by-gone days, when he united hearts and soul with the wearers of the blue in the manifestations of the tender reverence with which we garlanded the memory of our dead heroes. Some of your readers may never have been acquainted with the fact that the credit for the observance of this most loving and touching custom is due to the women of the South. During the arduous struggle, the south, being the arena and theater of war, suffered most severely. Thousands upon thousands of her most promising men and youths had perished upon the field of battle or died in military prisons. The long, long night from 61 to 65 had rolled slowly on, the death angel passing over and smiling the first born in every household; and when the dawn appeared at the surrender at Appomattox it was found that many, many more besides the first born had been touched by Him. Broken in spirit and in purse, they had nothing left but the memory of their dearly loved and lost ones; and to keep that memory green in their hearts, those devoted women did the only thing they could do—they adopted the custom of yearly strewing flowers upon the graves of their dead sons and heroes. Gen. John A. Logan of the record will stand—that, there being no evidence to the contrary, no process of revocation will be admitted. The matter is thus left to the voters of the district, to vote in accordance with their wishes, at the election a week from to-morrow. This expression of opinion will not, as we understand it, necessarily bind the School Trustees to carry out the stipulations of the vote. In fact, we understand the schoolboard is rather opposed to redeeding, on the eve of having use for the old schoolhouse. The polls will be open at the city schoolhouse between the hours of 8 o'clock in the morning and sundown. The school lot embraces three acres, and at a valuation of $100 per acre, ought to be worth $300. If the district is to be called upon next year to provide school facilities for the rapidly increasing population, certainly the redeeding proportion ought not to carry.

The impression that the lot had been deed to the Fairview school district with the understanding that it should revert to the original owner whenever it should cease to be used for school purposes, appears to be in evident error, as the records show the deed to have been absolute, and made in the absence of consideration. An abstract, coating $40, was made of the property in 1894, in which the date of the deed appears as March 25, 1875. The deed was recorded April 7th of the same year. No payment was made for the lot, but a consideration of $25 was subsequently interpolated by the Secretary of the school board, who is the only living member of the old school board, and who has recently made an affidavit shedding some light upon the subject. This interpolation was done without the knowledge of the other members of the board, and was in itself a particularly reprehensible and blameworthy act, whose gravamen was not lessened, but was rather made more astringent, in the fact that that official was a Justice of the Peace at the time of the act. We append the affidavit, which was made in Pasadena some days ago: "State of California, County of Los Angeles, ss. 'J. W. Clark, being first duly sworn, deposes and says that he was clerk of the Board of Trustees of the Fairview school district at Anaheim, Orange county, but at the time hereafter mentioned in the county of Los Angeles, State of California, during the year of 1875, and as such clerk of said board he made the deed, that is, he wrote said deed out, and took the acknowledgement to the same of the grantor therein named, and that he as such clerk of said board caused the deed to be recorded in the County Recorder's office of the said Los Angeles county, and that said school district for school purposes only, and that there was no consideration paid to said grantor, or to any one else for said land by said school district, other than that said school district was to maintain a public school on said land, as consideration for said deed to the same, as long as the said district held the title to the said land, and that it was understood between the grantor in said deed and the said Board of Trustees that if at any time the said school district should fail to maintain a public school on said land it should revert back to the said grantor, and said school district thereby lose all title and all claim to said land by reason of said failure to maintain a public school thereon; that said school district caused a school building to be erected on said land and did maintain a close of the current school term, 13 pupils, be graduation or otherwise; but that he will have next term, according to the school census, an increase of 23, as compared with his present number. Here we have a gain of 10 in the classes usually showing the slowest increase; while the number of children in the primary grades is larger than ever, and on the increase constantly. In view of the fact that the West End school is crowded, that Katella school is filled, and that the rooms of the city school, especially the lower branches, are crowded to overflowing, the question arises. Would not the old Fairview schoolhouse, if opened up next year, be a splendid means of providing accommodations for this constantly increasing overflow of children? We think so. Under these conditions, no little objection to the redeeding of the lot to the original owner has arisen, and it is doubtful if the people of the district will express it as their wish that the lot shall pass out of the district's hands on the eve of the existence of an active demand for its use. The impression that the lot had been deed to the Fairview school district with the understanding that it should revert to the original owner whenever it should cease to be used for school purposes, appears to be in evident error, as the records show the deed to have been absolute, and made in the absence of consideration.

This is a very interesting, if it is a ludicrous, exposition of the contemporary history of the time when "everything went." Judge Clark's act was clearly an extraordinary, not to say illegal one, and the charge that the school district failed to carry out a covenant of the contract, by failing to pay the sum of money denominated in the bond, falls, under the effulgent rays of this new evidence, flatly to the ground.

FIENDISH ATTEMPT TO WRECK A SANTA FE TRAIN FAILED—THEORIES OF RAILWAY MEN. SAN BERNARDINO, May 23.—A Santa Fe overland train, eastbound, would have been wrecked by dynamite in Cajon Pass this afternoon had it not been for the discovery of dynamite on the track by a rancher who chanced to pass that way. The place was at the end of a bridge in the heart of the mountains, twenty miles from San Bernardino. If robbery was the motive, then a better place could hardly have been found. The eastbound overland is due to leave here at 1:15 p.m. and an hour and a half later passes the summit. But an hour before it was due there a rancher who lives in a lonely side canyon came down the pass, and just as he started to go into the long covered bridge where the track crosses the stream in the pass his attention was attracted by something lying across the rail. He examined it and found two sticks of dynamite laid with the ends on the rail and braced up by rocks. Further investigation revealed more dynamite under the opposite rail, and in all enough to blow the locomotive and the train to splinters. Taking the precaution to move the dynamite, he hurried to the nearest station, which proved to be Cajon, and word was sent to this city. Section men were ordered out to inspect the track head of the overland, while an extra hurried from Los Angeles with special officers, who are now at the scene. Pettifogging in law practice doesn't seem to go very well in the Superior Court of Orange county, an example of which was made in the courts Monday. Judge Towner was right—[Santa Ana correspondent].

"The time is past, and we must get ness. As Chairman of the County Committee I assume the authority for you to order. Come forward and talk seats. The Secretary will now read for the meeting." Secretary Monaghan arose and recalled for the convention, setting forth Orange county entitled to six days to the State convention at Sacramento June 16th, which was called to select gates to the Democratic National Convention at Chicago July 7th. "The next business before our session," resumed the Man on the Platform; delegates shuffled to their seats front of the hall; "is the selection of porary chairman. What is your gentlemen?" Uncle Billy arose toward the left hall, in the chairs separated from the body of the hall, and nominated porary presiding officer, Capt. W. F., man, the only man who ever achieved distinction of delivering a political oration over the body of a live candidate. Geo. B. Bryan of Orange nominated Edelman of Armorburg, who sprung surprise of the day. Edelman is comer, having resided in the country thing more than a year. He was date for the Democratic nomination State Treasurer last year, and is hot politics. Some discussion ensued as to these proxies, both candidates taking that that, insamuch as quite a number of had been given in good faith by those able to be present, the proxies be allowed vote, at least until the appointment Committee on Credentials. This gave rise to the impression that gentlemen were in the convention on but this proved to be erroneous, being regularly elected in their precincts. On motion of Ray Billingly of Ville-de-aux-Loups use of proxies was allowed in this for temporary presiding officer. The proxies went, and nothing further w MERACY AND SILVER No Dan'l and Uncle Billy Program. The Program Goes Through about Slipping a Cog, but the Secretary Delegates Spring a Big Surpromise of the Santa Ana Statesmen. Matter of the Chairmanship—County Seat “Hogs” Three States to the State Convention, We Do Quite Well With Two, Two Supervisor Districts go Unpresented—The Party all Right on the, but the Management of the Convention was Farcalled. Discourtesy to the delegates who the Democratic County Convention Ana on Saturday to say that the man was probably the most negligent programmed affair in the history of politics. The convention started elect six delegates to the State conforess to assemble at Sacramento June 16, charge and one from each of the five districts in the county, and it things even by electing three delegates from the First Supervisor district at Ana, two from the Third, and one Fourth. It is difficult to see how well be otherwise. The three states on the First district were programmed, and the outside districts had to exclusively with silver, emphasizing that the Democracy of Orange are partial to the unlimited coinage metal at 16 to 1. There is nothing “renewal of allegiance” to “the time-principles of Democracy,” as exin the party’s State and national, no endorsement of Grover Cleveland Gov. Budd, or Senator White; about the tariff, or foreign immigra- tion the necessity for the protection of industries, or woman suffrage, secretary of the county central office had failed to collect data probable amount of the ex-f of the convention—had no idea what count of debts incurred could be—and in the amount must have been in thehood of $40, the farce of “passing the hat” was enacted, and some $9 Although the delegates probably though silver in their jeans to contribute to pay for all the expenses incurred, are permitted to depart in the delu-t sufficient had been contributed to up all accounts and start the campaign concerning them during the day. In fact, the fight for temporary chairman was the only scrap of the day, unless one might refer to the burial of Mr. Northcross’ little goldbug resolution as a contest. Prof. Welch spoke in further reference to the admissibility of proxies, but the tenor of his remarks, owing to the dropping of Pap Carlyle’s cane upon the floor, caused by the young man in a cap seated in the front row next to it, on two occasions, one following the other in quick succession, and the racket reverberating above the Professor’s voice throughout the hall, that eminent gentleman’s words were unfortunately, although everyone bent forward and strove to hear, quite lost to the world. As the vote proceeded it could be seen that the outsider was giving the program candidate a race, and necks were craned by many over his way, to see what the new man looked like. Not half the delegates in the hall had ever seen him before. Farmer Hargrave and Mayor McFadden of Placentia were named as tellers, and the vote was announced by them as follows: Heathman, 25; Edelman, 22. Mr. Edelman arose from his seat, in the body of the hall to the right, and raising his hand aloft, caught the speaker’s eye, and very gracefully moved to make the election unanimous. This was carried, and the convention thought the better of him, and applauded. After luncheon Mr. Edelman changed his seat to one near the front, on the side of the speaker’s stand, partly facing the audience, where all could see him. He looks like our Rev. Reiser of the German Methodist Church. Mr. Heathman failed to appear, on being chosen to the post of presiding officer, and the speaker called for him. The Chairman—Is Mr. Heathman in the house? That gentleman came forward from a seat near where his antagonist was seated, Mr. Heathman is a fine old Southern gentleman of the old school, and can on occasion make a good speech. Sometimes his enthusiasm gets the better of him and transports him into realms of what had best have been left unsaid. His speech on taking the chair was a good one, and when later, having been for no good reason dispossessed from the chair, his speech on the floor of the convention on silver was the most ferocious of the day. On taking the chair he thanked the convention for the honor conferred upon him, and referring to the party said that while it had many times been snowed under in defeat, it always came up smiling and ready for another conflict. “It is an honor to be a Democrat,” he said, “but I esteem it a greater honor to be the temporary chairman of this convention, and from the depths of my heart I thank you.” W. T. Brown of West Anaheim was placed in nomination for temporary Secretary, but asked to be excused, saying he had a matter of important business to attend to. The Chair—We cannot, Mr. Brown, very gracefully accept your declination. There was laughter at this and applause and calls for Brown. That gentleman then came forward amid applause and calls for a speech, but he decided. On Uncle Billy’s motion she delegates were called upon to express their sentiments on silver. Prof. Welch (shaking his finger at the chair)—That was my motion a moment age, Mr. Chairman, and you ruled it out of order! The Chair looked as though it wanted to say it hadn’t done any such thing. The delegates then expressed themselves on the white metal, all favoring its free and unlimited coinage at 16 to 1, and their election was ratified by the convention. Secretary Monaghan of the county central committee announced that it would be necessary to raise some silver to pay the expenses of the convention, but on being questioned he stated that he had no means of knowing the amount. The hat was then on motion of Prof. Welch, passed around, and although the expenses of the convention must have been in the neighborhood of $40,$9.65 was collected, three cheers were given or the Democratic party, and convention djourned.

Uncle Dan'l, who had at every Democratic Convention in which whereof the memory of the oldest man runneth not to the contrary, had too much eminent point sojourning the Spring, and had to give way.

Secretary Monaghan arose and read the for the convention, setting forth that large county was entitled to six delegates to the State convention at Sacramento on 16th, which was called to select delegate to the Democratic National Convention Chicago July 7th. The next business before the convened the Man on the Platform, as delegates shuffled to their seats in the hall, "is the selection of a temporary chairman. What is your pleasure,ement?" Uncle Billy arose toward the left of the chairs separated from those in body of the ball, and nominated for temporary presiding officer, Capt. W. F. Heath, the only man who ever achieved the motion of delivering a political obituary over the body of a live candidate. So. B. Bryan of Orange nominated Chas.eman of Armorburg, who sprung the big brise of the day. Edelman is a new-earr., having resided in the county some more than a year. He was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Treasurer last year, and is hot-stuff in politics. Some discussion ensued as to the use of proxies, both candidates taking the stand inasmuch as quite a number of proxies been given in good faith by those unto be present, the proxies be allowed to at least until the appointment of the committee on Credentials. This gave rise to the impression that both members were in the convention on proxies, this proved to be erroneous, both have been regularly elected in their home districts. An motion of Ray Billingsaly of Villa Park, case of proxies was allowed in the ballot temporarily presiding officer. Thereafter lies went, and nothing further was said The report of the Committee on Resolutions was next in order, and Uncle Billy, sniffing the scent of battle from afar, stepped up briskly for one so advanced in years, and read in a loud staccato voice the following good silver resolutions: Resolved That we, the Democratic party of Orange county, in convention assembled, are in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of silver, at the ratio of 16 to 1, both gold and silver, both to be equal money for all debts, both public and private. Resolved That this convention hereby instructs its delegates to the State convention to support delegates to the national convention who will advocate the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. The report was written by W. M. McFadden, and was good as far as it went, and was signed by all of the Committee on Resolutions, except Pap Carlyle, who bears blood relation to Cleveland's Secretary of the Treasury, and holds advanced gold-bug ideas. Mr. Northcross of Orange was on his feet in an instant, with an amendment against the free coinage of silver. The adoption of the platform he said would result in silver mono-metallism. "I move to lay the report upon the table," he said, "or (reflectively) that it be recommitted. I move that it lay upon the table." The motion was lost, whereupon the Tall Sycamore of the Santiago, nothing daunted, moved to strike out the recommendation for free silver coinage, but this was also lost, overwhelmingly, and the fight against silver was over. Cap. Heathman delivered the best speech of the convention in favor of silver, but there was nothing from Br. Northcross or Pap Carlyle in support of gold. Later, however, Pap kicked like a steer to paying $3 for hall rent, telling us that a hall could be had rent free in Westminster, and he thought mebbe in Anaheim too. Nominations for delegates to the State convention were next in order, and the following nominations were made: Geo. H. Bryan nominated C. Edelman. The Chair (after declaring out of order a motion by Prof. Welch to have candidates for delegate to come forward and express themselves on silver)—From what Supervisor district do you nominate me—or (naievely) do you nominate me at large? Mr. Bryan—From the Orange Supervisor district. Prof. Welch nominated Uncle Dan'l Baker for delegate at large. Uncle Billy Spurgeon nominated W. M. McFadden.
