A CHANGE took place in the personnel of the Citizens' Bank on Monday, when Mr. John Hartung and other gentlemen purchased Mr. Goldwater's interest, and the latter gentleman will shortly retire from the bank. Mr. Hartung was elected one of the directors of the bank, and, within a week or ten days, or as soon as he is able to resign his position with Mr. Dickel, will be elected as cashier and will assume the duties of that office. Mr. Hartung has been the bookkeeper in Dickel's well-known establishment for some three years past. The new cashier we have known for some thirty-four years, having passed much of our school days with him, and have known him as he grew to manhood as a shrewd and sagacious business man. Of large means and a wide range of business associations, he will bring to the bank those qualities which are an essential to success in institutions of this character, and that the bank, ever prosperous as it has been, will go on expanding in its sphere of usefulness, is beyond all question. We hope to see the business grow, and under the able management of Mr. Cahen, the president, and Mr. Hartung, the new cashier, it ought to extend its business many fold. Mr. Goldwater, the retiring cashier, goes to Los Angeles. He has been a resident of this city for upwards of four years, and by strict integrity and attention to business has won an enviable reputation in the community. He takes with him the best wishes of his many friends in this section, who indulge the hope that he may continue to prosper in his new field of activity.
ORANGE COUNTY may have three candidates for State officers before the Democratic State convention this summer, viz., D. M. Baker for Lieutenant-Governor, Chas. Edelman for Treasurer, and Postmaster Peabody of Santa Ana for State Printer. However, the recent appointment of Will S. Green of doubtedly intended for a picture of our young friend Holcomb of Fullerton, who was Secretary of the meeting, appears the inscription, "E. C. Fullerton, Seet'y." but the picture looks more like an avenging angel of the Danes than our particularly good-looking friend from across the sandwash. As for Crowther's picture, while the artist might claim an alibi on account of the label "Walter Carrothers" under the picture, yet the artist is probably guilty; but the picture might be used again for Major Rochussen. Verily the lines of the Herald's artist must have been cast in pleasant places among those country walnut growers, to have had his sketches fuddled so.
SELDOM in the history of the world has such an inspiring spectacle been presented as the uprising of the American people in response to the President's call for troops. Simultaneously with the call for 125,000 volunteers come reports from the States that a million men are not only ready but anxious to bear arms in defense of their country; and from one end of the land to the other we are witnessing today the spectacle of volunteer companies bending their energies to the task of being granted the patriotic privilege of going to the front in the advance guard—the rivalry to get to the front is so acute that all manner of influence is exercised to the end that this company or that may be off to the war as speedily as possible. Here at home in California, we have noted for a fortnight past with what activity the services of the Southern California regiment have been tendered the Governor; indeed, those who are anxious to go the front have gone about it with an enthusiasm that can have but one augury as to the final result of the conflict. A million men have risen up asking to be privileged to go to the front, in response to the call of the President asking for a tenth of that number. Indeed, advices from Washington say the War Department anticipates no difficulty in the raising of two million men, if such a gigantic army were in contemplation. This spectacle illustrates the warlike instincts of an enlightened and liberty-loving people, once the drum beats of patriotism resound in the land. It is the spectacle of a free people rising in defense of the right, and to avenge not only the
SUMMER IRRIGATION FOR APPLICATION OF COTS AND PEACHES.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—In order to have large, well-developed fruit the orchard must have sufficient water, and at this proper time.
If too much water is put on just before the fruit ripens it will make it too soft and juicy, with too small amount of sugar in the fruit, making it unfit for canning and taking many pounds of green fruit to make one pound of dried fruit, and if it time between irrigating and the ripening of the fruit is too long the tree will begin to dry out and the fruit will be small.
The proper time to irrigate apricots is when the fruit is half-grown, which is usually about the second and third weeks in May. If well watered at time the fruit grows to its largest, it has time to ripen slowly as the growth gradually dries, until it has all sugar which will go into the fruit. The mistake usually made is in putting too little water. An orchard in bearing and that has been reasonably well watered in the winter, or early spring, should now have as much as full 100 inches of water for two hours to each acre.
Apricots watered in this manner when dried should yield one pound dried fruit to five and one-half pounds of green fruit, for the ordinary varieties; while some varieties will make one pound dried fruit on less than five pounds of green fruit.
Peaches, in order to be at their best should have an equal amount of water and, as they ripen later, will require two summer irrigations—the first last about one month before the time each particular variety ripens.
In order to make the orchard part must have proper attention, and the proper time.
If the orchard is properly pruned and irrigated, has good cultivation—the fruit thinned, it is almost sure be well loaded with the finest of fruit and to be a source of profit, as we enjoyment to its owner.

ORANGE COUNTY may have three candidates for State officers before the Democratic State convention this summer, viz., D. M. Baker for Lieutenant-Governor, Chas. Edelman for Treasurer, and Postmaster Peabody of Santa Ana for State Printer. However, the recent appointment of Will S. Green of Colusa to the State Treasurership in place of Levi Rackliffe, the Republican incumbent, deceased, and the statement that Green will have the administration's backing for renomination, would seem to indicate rather rough sledding ahead for Edelman, who was recently said by a Pasadena political writer to be a protege of Gov. Budd. But those who claim to be acquainted with the inside workings of the last Democratic State convention say that to Budd's influence more than to any other one thing does Edelman owe his defeat for nomination at that time. At any rate Budd's nomination of Green would seem to place that gentleman well in line for preferment before the next Democratic convention. Green is the editor of the Colusa Sun, the leading Democratic paper of the north.
Postmaster Peabody, who was foreman of the State printing office under Col. Ayers, during the Stoneman administration, is said to look with favor upon a nomination for the office of State Printer. His term as Postmaster expires shortly, and he is said to be anything but averse to holding down a State job. Peabody will likely have influential backing. The Northern Democrats will trot out W. B. Benoist, Secretary of the San Francisco Typographical Union, for State Printer. Benoist is said to have the nomination well in hand. However the present Republican State Printer, A. L. Johnson, who defeated A. J. Curry, the Democratic nominee in the last election, by 37,482 plurality, is in no immediate danger of losing the office. Johnson was elected by one of the largest pluralities on the Republican ticket, and recent events no less than the efficient administration of his office, make it probable that his nomination and election will be accomplished without difficulty. Either Benoist or Peabody would "not be in it" with Johnson. Coming down to the local situation again, as viewed from the Democratic standpoint, the only candidate of that party who seems to have plain sailing before him is Dan'l Baker, now on a buckboard camping expedition through the State, and, when last heard from near the Oregon line. Those who speak by the cards aver that he will receive the nomination. The Republicans of the county so far as we have heard have no aspirants for State officers.

A million men have risen up asking to be privileged to go to the front, in response to the call of the President asking for a tenth of that number. Indeed, advices from Washington say the War Department anticipates no difficulty in the raising of two million men, if such a gigantic army were in contemplation. This spectacle illustrates the warlike instincts of an enlightened and liberty-loving people, once the drum beats of patriotism resound in the land. It is the spectacle of a free people rising in defense of the right, and to avenge not only the insults hurled at us by the Spaniards, but the great crime committed in Havana harbor Feb. 15th.
The United States have gone steadily onward to victory from the outset, and as we write on Tuesday the signal victory of Commodore Dewey in the Philippines is resounding throughout the length and breadth of the land. The coming week ought to be big with happenings of momentous import. The invasion of Cuba, the siege of Havana, the possible bombardment of its forts, the meeting of the Cape Verde fleet (providing its destination be not the Canaries) by the American squadron, and the advent of the Oregon and Marietta in Cuban waters, are matters competent to keep the interest of the American people on keenest edge. That the eagles of victory may perch upon the starry banner of the free is hope and prayer of every American.
Seventy millions of American people keep in touch with the happenings at the front as though they might be but a step removed from the scene of hostilities. In every village and every hamlet throughout the country the press is keeping the people informed of the progress of the conflict, and war bulletins pour in upon them almost hourly. The spark of patriotism has caused our usually peaceful land to resound with the tramp of marching men and the rattle of artillery hurrying to the front. How different, in many respects, are the people of Spain! With an illiterate population of twelve millions of people, they have been carrying on in transports of joy for a week over the reported capture of the Paris, for which no one for a moment in America felt the least apprehension for her safety at any time after her first day out from Southampton. True reports of her capture were sent out by the bombastic Spaniards; but they were speedily disposed of, and the good ship arrived on this side in due time. So have the Spaniards celebrated a reported repulsion of Commodore Dewey's fleet in the Philippines, when the world knows of his brilliant victory—which was a foregone conclusion from the outset. These fond ignorant fools have a rude awakening in store for them. With the invasion of Cuba, and the capture or destruction of her army in that island and Porto Rico (of which we may be prepared to hear within the week), the American fleet will be ready to sail across the Atlantic and seize Canaries, giving battle to the Spaniards in their home waters. With the Canaries as a base of supplies, our troops will manage the coasts of Castile.
WALNUT GROWER
Largely Attended and Interesting Convention Held in Los Angeles on Thursday Last.
The walnut growers of Southern formia met in Los Angeles on Thursday, April 28th, to formulate a plan organization with a view of sustaining prices at a point which will allow grower a fair compensation for his bor and investment.
A committee from the difficult walnut associations was appointed recommended a central organizer which should have full control on the walnuts grown by the local associations with power to fix prices and as they deemed best.
After considerable discussion some amendments in the matter of presentation-the convention adjourned to meet on May 18th, in Los Angeles when it is hoped a complete organization will be formed, as when the several societies compete with one another in price making, nothing but disastrous results can come to the grower.
The following resolutions, offered large part by Mr. Neff of this group were adopted.
1. Your committee recommends a central organization be formed for general lines of the Santa Fruit Exchange, and recommend adoption of the following proposals:
2. Local associations shall formed, composed of one delegate local associations, and this association shall have control of all selling combined product of all localities, with power to fix prices.
(Amended to read: "That each citation have one delegate in each board for each fifty carloads or fraction thereof have an extra delegate.") Amend adopted unanimously.
4. We recommend that an effuse uniform system of grading adopted.
5. Orders for walnuts shall be tributed among local associations data, according to production vided, that where orders contain specific brands of nuts from parts localities, such orders shall be charged against the pro-rata on future orders.
6. Payments shall be made to associations as fast as sales and transactions as made.
7. It shall be the duty of the association to ascertain the product of European and South American countries; the price at which product can be marketed in New York and to fix the price of California nuts so that the foreign producer not occupy the American market.
The convention adjourned to again in the Chamber of Commerce May 18, 1898.

We must again refer to the war bulletins sent here with such rare manifestations of enterprise by the San Francisco Call. They have kept the city well informed as to the progress of affairs at the front, and while one or two have turned out to be unfounded, still this was not the fault of the news-paper. It would seem that in the mass of news from the front an occasional unfounded report must creep in. The Call must be given credit for its enterprise, and we are free to say that much of the war news now engaging the attention of the American people has come to us through its bulletins. On some days the bulletins have reached as high as fifty. The Call moreover is printing the best account of the happenings at the front, as witness its publication of the bombardment of Matanzas ahead of the other San Francisco morning papers. Its enterprise is greatly appreciated by our people.
If the esteemed Herald of Los Angeles is no more to be relied upon than would be indicated by its pictures of the walnut growers in attendance at the Los Angeles meeting on Thursday, we fear the fate must have overtaken its boasted accuracy in depicting matters of local moment. On Friday morning it printed the counterfeit presentment of W. M. McFadden and Chet Holcomb, who attended the meeting, and there is a larking suspicion that a third picture attempted to portray the handsome features of that Apollo of the walnut growers, William Crowther, who was also present at the meeting. However were it not for the designation "W. M. McFadden," under the picture of the first-named gentleman, one might have taken it to be intended for a lean likeness of Capt. Ferguson, resembling somewhat that gentleman, and shorn as it is of Mac's really very splendid display of alder-manio rotundity! Under what is unreported repulsion of Commodore Dewey's fleet in the Philippines, when the world knows of his brilliant victory—which was a foregone conclusion from the outset. These fond ignorant fools have a rude awakening in store for them. With the invasion of Cuba, and the capture or destruction of her army in that island and Porto Rico (of which we may be prepared to hear within the week), the American fleet will beready to sail across the Atlantic and seize the Canaries, giving battle to the Spaniards in their home waters. With the Canaries as a base of supplies, our fleet will menace the coasts of Castile, and Spain will find when too late that she has quite underestimated the power of the American nation.

Argonauta, captured by the gunboat Nashville. The most prominent capture of the war.
The prize taken by Spain is the bark Saranac. She was awaiting her cargo in a port of the Philippines, and was at once pounced upon by the Spaniards. She is not very valuable.
KEY WEST May 2.—To the gunboat Nashville belongs the honor of making the most important capture yet made by the blockading squadron.
While cruising off the coast of Cuba, southeast from Havana, she sighted the Spanish mail steamer Argonauta, at 2:30 o'clock last Friday afternoon. She was making for Cienfuegos, which is the principal port on the southern side of the island. Since the blockade of the north coast all Spanish mails have been landed there.
The Nashville at once started for the Spaniard, and the Argonauta made a desperate effort to reach the harbor of Cienfuegos. The Nashville headed her off, and sent a solid shot bound over her bow, so close that her engines were at once reversed. The result of the throwing of her lever over, shook the steamer's whole frame, while foam scattered from stem to stern in all directions.
The Marblehead and the Eagle, one of the mosquito fleet, recently arrived, were behind the Nashville when the Argonauta was sighted, and they stood off shore to prevent the prize from escaping to sea. These two boats come in on the prize money.
The Argonauta rounded to it full sight of the harbor of Cienfuegos. Where a number of Spanish gunboats watched the chase from behind the guns of Fort Los Angeles. When they saw that the Argonauta could not make the harbor they determined to attempt a rescue.
A Spanish torpedo boat and two gunboats steamed boldly out of the harbor, followed by six other gunboats, and headed for the Nashville just as she was sending a prize crew on board the Argonauta.
The Marblehead and the Eagle steamed to the Nashville's assistance, and the Marblehead opened fire on the advancing Spanish boats, at long range, just as the Spanish boats began to fire on the Nashville. The Spanish guanery was so poor that it excited derision on board our vessels, and not one man on them was hit.
The Marblehead and the Eagle did effective work. The first shots did such damage on the first three boats in the first line that they turned about and went back to the other six. Then all nine showed their stems and scurried back into the narrow harbor under the guns of the forts.
Twenty-nine prisoners of war were taken on the Argonauta, including Col. Vinzente de Cartigo of the third Cavalry, of Principe, and his staff. The Spanish mails were also taken and they are believed to contain many important military dispatches. It was found that the Argonauta had not enough coal to carry her to Key West, so the Marblehead took her in tow and slowly steamed with her around the island.
Ambrosio Boliva, carrying $70,000 in silver and 300 casks of wine from Costa Rica to Havana, captured April 21th, off the coast near Cardenas, by the monitor Terror.

BASEBALL.
EDITOR GAZETTE:—The Fullerton High School baseball team won, by default, its sixth successive victory at their grounds at Fullerton on Saturday by a score of 9 to 0. The Buena Parks appeared on the grounds, but the sight of the boys in "red and white" was too much for their excited nerves and they refused to play. Immediately afterwards the High School played a Pick-up nine which resulted in another victory for them of 19 to 6.
The Santa Ana High School after their second defeat asked for a game for May 7th, but later they cancelled the engagement.
In place of the game Saturday with Santa Ana the High School is billed to play the Orangethorpes. This game promises to be the most exciting and closely contested game of the season. Every body invited. Game called at 1:30 p.m. Fullerton May 7th.

A quaint wedding custom still prevails in many of the little country towns and mining villages in Scotland. When a wedding is held, the contracting parties make their guests pay in full for the eating, drinking and dancing facilities which are usually provided on such occasions. The practice still seems to survive even in Glasgow. A correspondent observed a notice posted up in the Cowcaddens—a low class Glasgow thoroughfare—informing the public that a soldier would shortly enter into the bonds of wedlock, and that twopence would be charged for admission to the ceremony and an additional sixpence imposed for attendance at the wedding feast. The practice seems to be peculiarly Scotch, but sixpence certainly seems moderate enough for a marriage supper.—Westminster Gazette.
The Useless Men.
"Married life isn't what it is cracked up to be," remarked Mrs. Grimesleigh. "When I married Daniel, I thought it would be so handy to have a man about the house; but, Lor', that's all it amounted to. He's never at home when he's wanted for anything, and if he is he's tired or busy or something or other, and so I have to go to work and do the thing myself S far as I can see, men are only in the way when they are in the house and out of the way when they're wanted."—Boston Transcript.

DEWEY'S FEAT.
Hilitates the Spanish Squadron in the Philippine Islands.
Manila, May 2, 8:52 a.m.—Common Dewey's squadron completely delayed the Spanish fleet in Manila harbor early yesterday morning. Three of Admiral Montijo's ships were burned, he was sunk and the rest of the Spanish warships rendered hors de combat the American guns.
Our fleet entered Manila Bay yesterday morning at 5 o'clock and anchored before Cavite. The ships took up their positions in line of battle.
The forts on shore at once opened on our ships at long range and the Spanish fleet, anchored off Cavite, immediately followed with its heavy guns.
Commodore Dewey's flagship, the Emporia, then signalled the rest of the American fleet to draw closer in, and then afterwards our ships opened a fiercible cannonade.
After half an hour's hot fighting Dewey's ships moved out of range of lighter Spanish guns and continued bombardment with the big guns with terrible effect.
Twenty minutes later the Olympia train signalled the other Americans drawn in at close quarters, and once were rapid and incessant cannonading again.
This terrific bombardment soon ended the fight. One after another the Spanish vessels were silenced, and free of them caught fire, including Admiral Montijo's flagship, the Reina Maria Cristina, from an explosion caused by a shell from one of our vessels.
The Admiral at once transferred his ship to the Isla de Cuba.
One Spanish vessel was sunk and several were run ashore to escape capture.
Commodore Dewey's attention was now directed to the land batteries, which he silenced after a brief and energetic bombardment.
The battle lasted an hour and a half, it was a great and terrible specie. The Spaniards fought bravely

This terrific bombardment soon end the fight. One after another the Spanish vessels were silenced, and three of them caught fire, including Admiral Montijo's flagship, the Reina Maria Cristina, from an explosion caused by a shell from one of our vessels. The Admiral at once transferred his ship to the Isla de Cuba.
One Spanish vessel was sunk and several were run ashore to escape capture.
Commodore Dewey's attention was now directed to the land batteries, which he silenced after a brief and energetic bombardment.
The battle lasted an hour and a half, and it was a great and terrible specie. The Spaniards fought bravely against superior force and suffered heavy losses.
Four hundred Spaniards are reported killed, including two commanders. Their losses by fire are also probably very great. The Spaniards would not give in, and when the American fleet returned to Cavite some shots were still fired from the forts on shore, at our ships poured in such a terribleannonade that further resistance was impossible.
The American ships were apparently injured. Commodore Dewey's attack was well carried out. The maeuvering of his squadron was a beautiful sight, and the navigation of the day by our ships was a remarkable feat seamanship, avoiding as they did successfully the numerous shallows.
All is now over at Cavite. Commodore Dewey awaits the decision of the Governor-General of the Philippines before commencing the bombardment Manila. Unless a favorable reply is received from the Governor-General the United States' terms the bombardment will commence to-morrow at half-past 11.
CHICAGO, May 3 — A special from Washington says that the President received the news of the capture of Manila last night from the British Emissary Sir Julian Paunceforte tried all day to get into communication with the British authorities at Hongkong and the Consul at Manila without success, until evening, when he received a cablegram announcing that the city had surrendered, giving no details.
LONDON, May 3 — Hongkong dispatches say Manila has fallen and the stars and stripes wave over the Philippines. Dewey is forming a provisional government with the aid of the insurgents.
NEW YORK, May 3 — A dispatch to the Journal from Washington says: "The State Department has learned through its secret agents that the wreck of the battleship Maine has been destroyed by the Spanish authorities. It is supposed by officials that this action on the part of the Spanish authorities has been taken to prevent the raising of the wreck after the capture of Havana." A Cabinet member is authority for the following statement to the Journal: "We shall make it a part of our first business after taking possession of Havana to find out who were the perpetrators of the crime on the night of February 15th. If we find that they have escaped from the island and have gone back to Spain we will follow them there, and we shall tell Spain that the war shall not stop until they are delivered up to us for punishment."
WASHINGTON, May 3 — According to advice heretofore received by Adj-Gen. Corbin, the mustering of the soldiers of the volunteer army was to begin in most of the States to-day. As soon as this formality is accomplished they become regular United States troops, available for any service which the President may call upon them to superform. Up to the close of office hours, however, reports on that subject

SUMMons.
WASHINGTON, May 3.—According to advice heretofore received by Adj-Gen. Corbin, the mustering of the soldiers of the volunteer army was to begin in most of the States to-day. As soon as this formality is accomplished they become regular United States troops, available for any service which the President may call upon them to perform. Up to the close of office hours, however, reports on that subject had been received only from Massachusetts and Arizona. With the limited force in charge of this work at the various rendezvous points, the mustering in necessarily will take from two days to ten or more, according to the size of the State's quota. One regiment a day is considered very fair progress. The officials are now giving their attention to questions of mobilization, transportation and subsistence, and by the time the soldiers are ready to move, these questions will have been settled.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.—The following message was to day telegraphed to Senator White and Perkins at Washington by Gov. Budd:
"California has seventeen fine additional companies of infantry to the National Guard, in good condition, which can be assembled at San Francisco on twenty-four hours' notice. They consist of two regiments, one of eight companies, well drilled and disciplined. Urge their acceptance by the United States as volunteers. If the national government will refurnish the National Guard with the uniforms and equipments advanced by this State, or pay for same promptly, we can reorganize and reclothe our entire guard within thirty days. Try, at least, to have them accept our companies, so as to allow us to furnish three full regiments of twelve companies each."
