The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, CHARLES KUCHEL, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY... NOVEMBER 25, 1897 TO-DAY is Thanksgiving, the great American holiday. The day is a legal holiday. Business will probably be generally suspended, and the day given over to the giving of thanks for the many blessings that have been showered upon the people during the year. Let’s all give thanks and fall to toward the turkey! THE San Francisco Call prints an elaborate disquisition upon the profits of beet culture in California. That this State is the ideal home of the sugar beet, where conditions of soil and climate prevail to impart to the industry an element of profit, is undeniable; but any statement of expenses and income attending the harvest which credits the average yield of beets at 27 tons per acre is so ludicrously wide of the mark that it is deceptive. The Call ought to be ashamed of itself for making it. The average is not half 27 tons per acre—scarce a third of it—as the Call very well knows, or ought to know, and the inference is irresistible that its widely paraded article on the “importance of the Industry” was printed with a deliberate intention to deceive. STATE CONTROLLER COLGAN has completed his statement showing the amount of taxes which each of the counties of the State will raise for State and county purposes for the present fiscal year. Orange county is shown to have a total assessed valuation, exclusive of railway assessments, amounting to $8,675,629. The amount of taxes contributed to the State by Orange county is $44,245 71, and the amount raised for county taxes is $98,-485 50, making a total taxation of $142,-731 21. Los Angeles has an assessed valuation, outside of railroads, of $90,-128,342. Its State taxes amount to $459,654 54, and the county taxes $751,-456 61, a total of $1,211,111 15. The total valuation of all the counties in the State, exclusive of railroads, is $1,045,881,571. The total State tax is $5,333,950 82, and the total county tax, $11,745,313 37. The total railroad assessment in the State is $43,491,745, making a total value of all property own running mate. Unanimous consent to this scheme is not expected, but an overwhelming majority is anticipated, and the result will be that there will be no national democratic convention. BUENA PARK. Rev. Mr. Morgan occupied the pulpit of the Congregational church Sunday morning and evening. This gentleman will preach regularly the coming four weeks at 11 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. Sunday-school at 12. Rev. Field preached in Forresters’ hall Sunday morning. The Methodists are contemplating building in the near future. Services every Sunday morning. The Foresters of this place accepted an invitation from Orange Monday eve. A number went from here and report a fine time. Mrs. Williams of Los Angeles was visiting her niece, Mrs. Arbachell, Tuesday. Mrs. Williams contemplates buying some of the “town lots” and building some houses. We need more of such enterprise. Thursday at 3:35 there will be wedding-bells rung in the Congregational church, when Mr. James Melliken and Miss Bernice McKenney, eldest daughter of J. W. McKenney, will be united in the holy bonds of matrimony, Rev. George De Kay officiating. The usual number of family gatherings for to-day. Mr. and Mrs. James A. Whitaker went to Pasadena Wednesday to give thanks with Mrs. Whitaker’s nephew and family. More rushing at the Pacific Creamery. Two car-loads so far this week of sterilized cream and condensed milk; nearly eight thousand pounds manufactured daily. We notice Charley Landell busy again with the beets. Two more weeks will end the shipping from this point for this year. Mr. Ernest Billmeyer of Los Angeles was visiting at A.W. Whitaker’s Monday. VOICE OF THE PRESS. BEET HARVEST. From the Chino Champion, Nov., 19. The harvest has not been quite so heavy the past week, the factory finding some difficulty in the diffusion, owing to the beets becoming wilted under the hot sun of the past few days. The weather has been ideal for beets in the ground, but those in piles become wilted and tough. The average daily delivery for the week has been 609 tons; and the total delivery for the season to date from the Chino fields is 43,242 tons. The daily average percentage has been: Pacific Improvement Co. to Yoch—Lots I, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, block 67, Santa East; $10. Nellie P.

Fred Sorter and wife.E ANAHEIM has a very capable dentist in Dr. Houck, whose offices are located in the Federman building. Dr. Houck is a graduate of the Philadelphia dental college, of the city of Philadelphia, where he graduated after a three years' course of study. His work during his residence here has won for him wide commendation, and it is a pleasure to add our testimony to the general verdict. His services have recently been called into requisition to extract a number of ulcerated roots that were left in the maxillary of a patient who was treated by a widely advertised Los Angeles concern which we believe has drawn no inconsiderable patronage from Orange county. The operation was attended successfully, although the patient was in a bad condition as a result of the work of the Los Angeles concern. If those of our readers who have dental work to do will enlist the services of Dr. Houck, instead of running off to patronize widely advertised concerns abroad, they will be better off in the end. He is an experienced and clever dentist, and we do him simple justice in adding our testimony to the many encomiums of praise bestowed upon him for his work by his patients during his residence in the community. ARRANGEMENTS have been made to bring the new primary election law, pass at the last session of the Legislature, before the Supreme Court for a decision as to its constitutionality. At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Populist party in San Francisco resolutions were passed instructing Thomas V. Cator, the legal light of the organization, to take steps to test the act. Although the law is looked to by the people of the State, and particularly of San Francisco, as a deliverance from the control of the bosses, it is not generally known that there is already pending in the Superior Court of Tulare county a case which was brought as a preliminary step toward the overthrow of the enactment. Cator has just returned from Tulare, where he appeared as counsel for the plaintiff in this suit. To-day he said that whatever the action of the Superior Court might be, the case would be appealed, and that he expected to secure a hearing by the Supreme Court in the VOICE OF THE PRESS.

GAZETTE.] MORE LIGHT WANTED. From the Norwalk Call. The Board of Supervisors of this county have ordered that an election be called on December 11th next, in order to submit to the voters of this county a proposition to vote for the issuance of $860,000 refunding bonds to bear four per cent, payable semi-annually, the last to be paid in 1922, or about 25 years from date. Now we do not know exactly the nature of these bonds, for in the proclamation which has now been published about two weeks, the exact purpose of the bonds is not stated. We have been informed that the debt for which these bonds are to be issued to liquidate, is $722,000. If so, what we would like to ask, is the balance of $138,000 for? We think it behooves all voters to fully acquaint themselves with the facts in the case before voting for the bonds. Let us have a little more light upon the subject. HOW ABOUT IT?

Ordway and his wife returned from Europe last Wednesday. They engaged rooms at the Hoffman House. Next day the general was taken sick, and he continued to grow weaker and weaker until 7:15 o'clock Sunday evening, when he passed away.

Although the law is looked to by the people of the State, and particularly of San Francisco, as a deliverance from the control of the bosses, it is not generally known that there is already pending in the Superior Court of Tulare county a case which was brought as a preliminary step toward the overthrow of the enactment. Cator has just returned from Tulare, where he appeared as counsel for the plaintiff in this suit. To-day he said that whatever the action of the Superior Court might be, the case would be appealed, and that he expected to secure a hearing by the Supreme Court in the early part of January. The suit is similar to that brought against the Supervisors of Los Angeles county to declare null and void the act of the Legislature of 1895. In that case the Supervisors were restrained from carrying out the primary law because of constitutional defects, and the Supreme Court, in deciding the appeal, declared the law null and void. Cator has prepared his brief, which he says he has submitted to prominent attorneys, who have approved it. He declares that he has no doubt that the court will declare the act of the Legislature unconstitutional, but the friends of the new law declare that the objections to the law of 1895 cannot be sustained in this instance, and are as confident that the law will be upheld as Cator is that it will be knocked out. The Supreme Court will be asked to make an exception in favor of this case, and decide it at as early a date as possible, because of the great importance of the matter involved to the people of the entire State. FROM members of the democratic national committee who are in Washington it is learned that a plan is on foot to inaugurate a new departure next time in the methods of nominating a candidate for the presidency. The scheme is briefly this: The democratic State conventions will be held as usual in 1900 for the purpose of electing delegates to the national convention, and doing the usual part toward keeping up the machinery of the party. The conventionals will order the delegates to meet at once and instruct the national committee to cast the votes of State delegations for Mr. Bryan, and authorize that gentleman to name his Is wondering what the pow-wow of big Republican medicine men was all about, last Thursday evening. Gen. Albert Ordway died at the Hoffman House in New York on Sunday night. Gen. Ordway and his wife returned from Europe last Wednesday. They engaged rooms at the Hoffman House. Next day the general was taken sick, and he continued to grow weaker and weaker until 7:15 o'clock Sunday evening, when he passed away. The general's death was doubtless hastened by the sad and recent events in connection with his wayward daughter, Bettina Girard. The latter, a complete wreck, was, a day or two ago, transferred to a private sanitarium from Bellevue Hospital. Owing to the pleading of his wife, who had become reconciled to her daughter, Gen. Ordway finally consented to the return of the prodigal, and a reunion of the family in Washington was arranged. Gen. Ordway's death is attributed by the attending physician to jaundice and pleurisy, which developed from a cold contracted in Paris. The annual meeting of the Association of Beet Sugar Manufacturers was held in San Francisco on Friday and the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: President, Henry T. Oxnard, Nebraska; vice president, J. Ross Clark, Montana; treasurer and secretary, Jas. Coffin, California. A resolution was passed unanimously protesting against the annexation of Hawaii or a continuation of the present reciprocity treaty, "whereby a large part of the home sugar market is given up free to a foreign island 2000 miles away, to the detriment of the home beet sugar industry." The resolution further calls upon all the friends of the domestic beet sugar industry to work actively against annexation. NEW YORK, November 22.—From Sar Francisco to New York in a house on wheels is the record of the Lasley family, formerly of Port Angeles, Washington, now living in their portable home in a vacant lot in this city. The family had previously journeyed from Port Angeles to San Francisco in the vehicle they call home. From March 22, 1894, to November 22, 1897, this family has traveled in the abode on wheels a distance of 6,666 miles. The Lasleys lived on a farm near Port Angeles. They struggled to pay off the mortgage on it, but the task was useless. They left Port Angeles March 22, 1894, and reached San Francisco December 17th, where their story became known and thousands of people flocked to see them.

RESERVED SEATS NOW ON SALE AT DERGE'S DRUGSTORE THE WAR IN CUBA. Patriots May Make a Demonstration Against Havana—Pitiable Condition of the Island. HAVANA, Nov. 22. If current reports among the friends of the insurgents are to be believed, the revolutionary leaders hope to strike a decisive blow at Havana before Congress meets, as an encouragement to their friends in the United States, who are urging a recognition upon the part of the United States government of the belligerency of the insurgents of Cuba. The captain-general is said to have asserted that Spain could keep up the fighting until after April next, and if by that time the Spaniards were unable to restore peace at any price, he (Marshal Blanco) would return to Spain. Incidentally this sentiment is credited to several other generals who have arrived here recently from Spain. The answer of the insurgents to Marshal Blanco's decree favoring the resumption of grinding sugar cane has been the burning of immense cane fields in the Augur district of this province, in the neighborhood of San Felipe. A day or so ago the sky in that direction was red with the reflection of the flames. CONTINUANCE OF THE San Francisco ODD FELLOWS' BUILDING UNTIL EVEN Everything must anor Value. Not!

To the law and to the testimony: “If they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them.” (Isa. 8, 20.) If there is no light in them they are blind, and “if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” (Matt. 15, 14.) And when they have rejected God’s Ten Commandment law and fallen into the ditch of man’s doctrines and commandments, what does Jesus say of their worship? (See Matt. 15, 9.) “In vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.” And when the blind have fallen into the ditch and persist in remaining there, should not some one “bury them with scripture texts” lest others be led that way and share the same fate? Fact 13. As Elder Waggoner, and a few others at the last evening of the debate, seemed to have forgotten some of the texts I had used. I shall now endeavor to make the texts so plain and logical in their application that they will long remain fresh in their memories, unless it be true that they are non compos mentis. In short, I shall carry the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God (Eph. 6, 17) with its sharp edge toward them. And as it is sharper than any two-edged sword (Heb. 4, 12), should any get badly wounded these only will be to blame who were not satisfied with the popular vote at the recent debate. Fact 14. As the public are the jury before whom this testimony is being presented, I ask all who love virtue and righteousness to give a reason why a wise God would wish to abolish such a law of Ten Commandments, while those who love vice and unrighteousness will find their reason in the following text: “Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.” (Rom. 8, 7.) Fact 15. This Ten Commandment law is separate and distinct from all other laws, having been written upon two tables of stone with the finger of God. (Ex. 31, 18. See also chapter 32, 16). Fact 16. There is another law made up of commandments contained in ordinances (rites and ceremonies, Webster.) Circumcision was one. This was in dispute (Acts 15, 5-24); the law of priesthood and offerings (Heb. 6, 28). These were taken out of the way (Heb. 10, 9), and many more. This entire code of ceremonial laws was written in a book (Gal. 3, 10), as also the old covenant (Ex. 24, 7; Deut. 31, 24), with a man's hand, and were blotted out by the death of Christ and nailed to the cross. (Col. 2, 14.) This law of ceremonies with the old covenant everybody believes is done away, and as Elder Waggoner’s articles treat on this ceremonial law of Moses I pass them by, as that law has no bearing on the question. Henry Ward Beecher was once asked what he did when he had nothing to say when preaching. Said he, “I holler.” I wonder if when men have no Bible proof they write. Fact 17. He says I am to remain in my place on the seventh day and kindle no fire, which is not found in the Hotel Reception, Fullerton, Cal. C. B. Huggans, Proprietor. First-Class in Every Respect.

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.—Americanized and native-born Chinese will appeal to Congress for the right of suffrage and ask that body to repeal the Geary anti-Chinese law passed in 1882. A public mass-meeting will be held at Central Music Hall next Saturday, and prominent Chinese from all over the United States will address the meeting. They will declare that wrongs have been inflicted upon them since they have been refused the rights of citizenship, and will ask the aid of the people of the United States to help them in their cause. This, it is said, will be the first time the Chinese will have openly declared themselves. They have organized the Chinese Equal Rights League of America, with offices in this city. Wong Chin Foo is president of the organization. In an interview he said: "We want in Illinois, the place that Lincoln, Grant and Logan called their home, to do for the Chinese what the North did for the negroes. Why should we not have a voice in municipal and national affairs like other foreigners? "There are 50,000 Chinese in this country who are desirous of becoming citizens. In 1882 an outrageous law was passed by Congress. By that law the rights and liberties of nearly 250,000 lawful citizens were swept away. We shall now ask Congress to restore to us the sovereign rights we once enjoyed, which are now held by every other race who come here. "Those who wish to become voters have been living in this city from ten to forty years. Their financial and social interests are all here and they have learned to love America better than the old country. They have acquired American habits, which have rendered their residence in China almost impossible. "The situation has now come to a stage where we must ask for our rights." Following the meeting at Central Music Hall, meetings will be held all over the United States. The Chinese Equal Rights League of America is incorporated. Among those who will address the meeting next Saturday are Wong Chin Foo, Wong Oek of Massachusetts, Sam Ping Lee of New York and Chin Loy of San Francisco.
