The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchel, Charles Muchel, Kentors and Propristors. THURSDAY... JANUARY 28, 1897 THE INCREASE OF THE BOUNDARIES. The present controversy about the enlargement of the water district has had considerable light thrown upon it by the report of the Audit Board. But before going into their figures, there is one vital point that seems to be often lost sight of. That is, that the mere enlargement of the district does not necessarily increase in that proportion the amount of land which this company is under obligations to irrigate. The company now has outstanding 6888 shares of stock which, upon demand, it must supply with water in rotation. If the company issues from its treasury 410 shares of its stock as is now proposed, it will increase its liability to deliver water by that much—making it liable to deliver water on 7298 shares in rotation. The fact that the present district of 12,000 acres is increased by some 1200 acres, has but little bearing on the real issue. The shares of stock upon which the company must deliver water in rotation is the vital point. The issuance of 410 shares of stock would increase this liability 5-9-10 per cent. Now, taking up the figures of the auditing committee. So far as the enlargement of the district is concerned, the figures for the three dry months of June, July and August, are all that need be considered, for the water supply in the spring and fall is admittedly ample for twice the present irrigated acreage. During the three dry months of 1894, a dry year, the whole supply of water was used, and there was considerable shortage. At that time there were stock to pay for the water used on the land of those who hold insufficient stock. The company is forced to assess to make receipts equal expenditures, as will be readily seen by referring to the report of the Board of Audit. The Board of Audit took the assessments into the earnings under this idea, which it seems to us is the reasonable one. The writer in the Tribune says that each assessment goes toward paying up the par value of the capital stock, as will be noticed by referring to the trial balance. That each assessment goes toward paying up the par value of the capital stock, may be a fact in law, but those conversant with the situation in the water company know that this is not the generally accepted idea in conducting the business of the company. That the assessments are in any way considered with or mixed up with the stock account on the books or in the statement of the Board of Audit is completely false on the face of it. The final statement of the Tribune that assessments are in fact a "direct loss" seems too absurd to consider. How any money received from any purpose whatever can be considered on the books of the company as a loss, is past comprehension. ANNUAL WATER ELECTION. Next Saturday occurs the annual election of stockholders in the Anaheim Union Water Company. A fortnight since we observed that the election approached with considerable less of turpitude than characterized the contest last year. There is no occasion to change that judgment, and compared with the exciting contest of a year ago, the election comes on in the beautiful calm of a midsummer's night's dream. Among the gentlemen who are candidates for the office, Mr. Kellogg has made an active canvassor for stock, as have the friends of each of the other gentleman. Of merits of the gentlemen it would invidious to make comparison; so far it to say that there is material here for the selection of a first-class Director. Only one can reasonably hope for election, and we hope that judgment of the stockholders will be exercised to the end that he man for the place may be selected sit upon the board. Mr. George B. Key, the tall son Now, taking up the figures of the auditing committee. So far as the enlargement of the district is concerned, the figures for the three dry months of June, July and August, are all that need be considered, for the water supply in the spring and fall is admittedly ample for twice the present irrigated acreage. During the three dry months of 1894, a dry year, the whole supply of water was used, and there was considerable shortage. At that time there were practically no cement ditches. During the dry months of 1895, a dry year, there was water for all and the statement of Zanjero Stone is to the effect that water was turned to waste during this time. During the dry months of 1896, another dry year, there was used 10,120 heads of water, and the zanjeros' reports show that 700 heads of water were turned to waste. The total supply was then 10,820 heads, an increase over the other dry year of 1894 of 2304 heads, or 27 per cent. On an average wet year it is admitted that there is water for all and more. The fact that the increase of one dry year over another was 27 per cent, in connection with the fact that there was during the dry year of 1896 a surplus of 700 heads in the three dry months, would indicate that a small enlargement of the district, and a consequent small increase of outstanding stock was a safe proposition so far as our water supply is concerned. That the increased earnings of the company would be welcome, and are needed, no one will deny. As stated above, the proposed increase in the company's liability to deliver water is 59-10 per cent. Now, the water wasted during the dry months of 1896 was 700 heads. This was 64-10 per cent of the total supply. Thus it is plainly to be seen that the proposed increase is not equal to the present surplus in a dry year. The records show that the supply in the river is yearly increasing. It is also an established fact that the available water supply could be largely increased by further cementing of ditches, and the construction of reservoirs. The revenue from the increased sale of water made possible by such improvements would more than pay interest on their cost. Their construction and a corresponding enlargement of the district would be good business and a safe proposition. One more point. The company now has on hand over 1000 shares of election of stockholders in the Anaheim Union Water Company. A fortnight since we observed that the election approached with considerable less of turpitude than characterized the contest last year. There is no occasion to change that judgment, and compared with the exciting contest of a year ago, the election comes on in the beautiful calm of a midsummer's night's dream. Among the gentlemen who are candidates for the office, Mr. Crowther has proved to be a conspicuous target of abuse, in certain quarters, although a more capable Director, or one more conscientious or honorable, or one who has given more of his time to advancing the interests of the company, in season and out, cannot be found within the district. Mr. Crowther knows every foot of ditch from Katella to Bedrock Canyon, is conversant with the needs of the company as well if not better than any stockholder, is one of the largest stockholders of the company (holding 104 shares), and why an attack should be made upon his integrity at this time, by a tenderfoot whose nose is hardly warm in the community, is more than we are able to say. Of course it would be presumptious on our part to say who will be elected Director at next Saturday's meeting, but we hazard the statement that when the votes are counted, Mr. Crowther will be found to have more than that general sufficiency of stock that has characterized his candidature at each recent annual election. Mr. W.F. Botsford, against whom a splenetic attack was made last year, but which seems to have in great part subsided, is the heaviest stockholder in the company, holding 225 shares of stock. Mr. Botsford has less trouble in electing himself a Director probably than any stockholder in the company. He can count upon the fingers of one hand shareholders with stock sufficient to elect him, who insist upon his being a Director; without reference to the many other smaller shareholders whose support he may rely upon at each election. It is by no means positive that Mr. Botsford will be a candidate for Director, his many private interests making such inroads upon his time that his own personal affairs must be subjugated to the interests of the company to give the time to the office which its importance deserves. Last year, although he had stock pledged to him sufficient to step aside, but his friends proKellogg has made an active canvass for stock, as have the friends of each of the other gentleman. Of merits of the gentlemen it would invidious to make comparison; since it to say that there is material here for the selection of a first-chair Director. Only one can reason hope for election, and we hope judgment of the stockholders will be exercised to end that the man for the place may be selected sit upon the board. Mr. George B. Key, the tall son Anak, and the idol of the Fuller reform league, owns nine shares, may be said to be reasonably sure election. Mr. Key is a member present board, and has been ing of the Semi-Tropic orchard stock and other influential shareholders. He is a gentleman with reproach, and it being his desire sit again upon the board, his friend cannot do better than to stand him and re-elect him. If our horoscope thus far has correct, there is little to say concerning the candidature of Mr. A. Gwin, who owns 14 shares, and Mr R. Amerige, who owns five shares except that they have an upright fight on their hands. Mr. Goodwyn entree into the political arena in comparatively recent origin. He "new man," and while undoubtedly a good one, yet the indication are that Mr. Browning has greater strength in his neighborhood. Mr. Amerige owns five share stock, and of those actively outstretched office is the smallest shareholder. His recent transfer of five or recently held ten shares, which sold the day before insisting upon an assessment of $150 per share brought him no little criticism, is understood to have lost him support of influential stockholder who formerly supported him. The affairs of the company, with the report of the Board of A published last week, show to be No. 1 condition, the receipts having largely increased over those of previous year, while the expected decrease must continue to hold on conservative hands that guided the company during these years. Broad-minded men must retained in office. There is a plea of really very excellent materials select from, and as we say, this tone is coming on in the quiet pose of a midsummer's night dream, with not even the indication of a ripple upon the surface to rise even tenor of its calm serenity. The revenue from the increased sale of water made possible by such improvements would more than pay interest on their cost. Their construction and a corresponding enlargement of the district would be good business and a safe proposition. One more point. The company now has on hand over 1000 shares of stock for sale. Whether the water bought on these shares after their issuance is run inside or outside the present district, can make no difference in the question as to whether the water supply is more than sufficient for the present irrigators. When this stock is issued, the liability of the company to deliver water thereon in rotation will be the same, whether the stock is located inside or outside the present district. Consistency on the part of the opponents of enlargement would seem to demand that they not only oppose enlargement of the district, but that they endeavor to withdraw from sale the present treasury stock, a thing which it is believed they do not favor for financial reasons. It would therefore appear that the proposed issue of 410 shares of treasury stock would not in any wise jeopardize the water supply of the present outstanding stock in the future, even in a dry year. The Fullerton Tribune makes the point that the taking of the assessments of the water company into the earnings account in the report of the Board of Audit is wrong. Those who were at the stockholders' meeting two years ago will doubtless remember the extreme vigor with which the members of the "reform league" urged the adoption of the principle of low water charges and frequent assessments. That has been and we believe still is the cardinal principle of the "reform league." The reason is obvious: the desire is to force those who hold unused whose support he may rely upon at each election. It is by no means positive that Mr. Botsford will be a candidate for Director, his many private interests making such inroads upon his time that his own personal affairs must be subjugated to the interests of the company to give the time to the office which its importance deserves. Last year, although he had stock pledged to him sufficient to elect two men, he greatly preferred to step aside, but his friends protested against this action, and demanded that he run, and he was elected by the largest vote cast at the election. This year he is in much the same position, and although we know personally that he would prefer not to run, his supporters demand that he stand for election. Mr. Browning is another of the large shareholders, is a member of the present Board of Directors, and is reasonably sure of election. He owns 59 shares of stock, has the solid backing of the Brookshurst neighborhood, as well as a number of the influential shareholders living on Orangethorpe avenue, favoring his candidature. Like both of the gentlemen already referred to, he is a valuable man upon the board. A man of ideas and of forceful intellect, and gifted with an ability to express them with directness and precision, he is just the man to carry a meritorious proposition through the board, and just the man to defeat any job that might bob up during the year. Of Mr. Nebelung, another gentleman who is reasonably certain of election, we might say he has more than a sufficiency of stock pledged to him and placed at his call, from stockholders living in this city, to elect himself by a comfortable majority. Mr. Nebelung has long been a member of the Finance Committee, where his knowledge of finance stands the company in good stead. He owns personally 19 shares of stock, and being a representative citizen, has the cordial endorsement... REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. For the Two Weeks Ending Jan. 25, 1897.

To our FRIENDS AND PATRONS...At this time, the close of our fourth, and most successful year, we thank you for the appreciation you have shown of our work by your liberal patronage. In return for this we can only say that it shall be our desire to continue to grow in favor with the people of Orange County by giving them the very best course of practical business education possible. As in the past the methods employed will be such as will meet with the approval of any practical business man. The Commercial Course for the coming year will be slightly modified, a set of Joint Stock and Corporation books being added. The Stenographic will be about the same. In the English Training Department, as heretofore we shall endeavor to give a systematic and thorough training in all the English branches. During the past year we have had quite a number of young men and women from surrounding towns who would like to attend the school, yet did not feel as if they were able to bear the expense of board and lodging in addition to the tuition. In a large number of cases we have been able to secure them homes in good families in return for services rendered before and after school. We have a number of these places not yet George B. Key, the tall son of and the idol of the Fullerton league, owns nine shares, and he said to be reasonably sure of Mr. Key is a member of present board, and has the back of the Semi-Tropic orchard's and other influential shareholder. He is a gentleman without touch, and it being his desire to join upon the board, his friends do better than to stand by and re-elect him. Our horoscope thus far has been little to say concern the candidature of Mr. A. Goodho owns 14 shares, and Mr. E. Merige, who owns five shares; that they have an up-hill on their hands. Mr. Goodwin into the political arena is of relatively recent origin. He is new man," and while undoubted good one, yet the indications that Mr. Browning has the strength in his neighborhood. Amerige owns five shares of land and of those actively out for office is the smallest shareholdin his recent transfer of five of his newly held ten shares, which he the day before insisting upon assessment of $1 50 per share, has right him no little criticism, and understood to have lost him the port of influential stockholders formerly supported him. The affairs of the company, which report of the Board of Audit, hailed last week, show to be in a condition, the receipts having only increased over those of the previous year, while the expenses ceased, must continue to lodge in conservative hands that have led the company during the past Broad-minded men must be used in office.

There is an ancient law in Rhode Island, which, however, is almost forgotten, requiring clergymen to take out a license before officiating at marriages. The other day Father O'Hare and Mr. Stewart, the Episcopal rector of Auburn, went to the town clerk for this license. At first the town clerk was much puzzled what to do, as he had no proper license blanks, but he finally got over the difficulty, and the clergymen departed. After they had got on a street car they opened their licenses, and each was horrified to find himself in the possession of a full fledged second class liquor license, with power to run a liquor shop subject to all the privileges and penalties of the law. A closer inspection of the license, however, showed that the words "second class liquor license," giving power to sell "malt; spirituous and intoxicating liquors" at retail or wholesale, had had a line drawn through them, and instead of the words "to sell malt; spirituous and intoxicating liquors" were interlined the words "to perform marriages," and so forth. Each clergyman made a wry face as he contemplated his battered license, and each silently vowed to exhibit it only in case of dire peril of a $20 fine. But both blessed the ingenuity of the official that could transform a document which portends so much evil for the race, according to their views, into an instrument with power to give such happiness—New York Tribune. A very attractive ornamental art of recent introduction is, as stated, the production of an imitation beadwork on fabrics of various kinds by means of what is known as glass powder, or "diamantine," the result being patterns which present an appearance similar to that exhibited by glass beads on close or open meshed fabrics. The method of operation in carrying out this idea is said to be simple—that is, the fabric is coated by means of molding boards with resinous substances, composed of say, 60 parts of guaiacum and 80 parts of shellac, dissolved in 100 parts of alcohol, 10 parts of glycerin being added to the solution under continuous stirring. After the composition has been carefully distributed over the surface of the fabric the glass powder is strewn on it and firmly pressed by repeated rolling, etc., the glass powder being prepared by thorough pulverizing or pounding, and may be of any or many colors.—New York Sun.
