The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HEIR KUCHEL, CHARLES KUCHEL, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY...OCTOBER 13, 1898. STILL nothing from our contemporary in explanation of the attempt of its principal stockholder and guiding spirit to interfere with a city official in the performance of his duty. Presuming that the questions concerning the episode might have escaped its notice, we make bold to present them for its consideration again: How came E. P. Fowler to approach two men who had been arrested and released on bond for the infraction of a city ordinance, advising them not to appear in the Recorder's court on the following Monday morning to answer to the charge, and assuring them, if any trouble or expense should follow as a consequence of their non-appearance, that he would stand good for it? Was it his purpose to still further enmesh them in the clutches of the law, laying themselves liable as they did to the additional charge of jumping their ball; was it merely an ostentatious attempt on the part of an individual predisposed to lunacy to pose before them as being superior to the law, or was it merely the attempt of an irascible old man to vent his spleen upon a public official whom he dislikes, and who abhors him like a snake? How came he in his narrow-minded and splenetic desire to injure a public official to violate the canons of common decency so far as to tread dangerously near arrest himself, for his interference with the enforcement of the ordinances of the city? Is he crazy, or what's the matter with him? Speak up, imported town-builder, and satisfy the yearnings of the community who wish know the reason for the attempt of this person to interfere with the law. Our more or less esteemed contemporary, the Plain Liar, makes a great do over a circular letter issued in a spirit of jocularity from this office a number of years ago. The circular was not sent out to candidates right and left, as our contemporary would ment that an order has been issued that "keepers of houses of ill-repute leave" the city." The Plain Dealer plies lies upon lies, and lies for the mere sake of lying. The Marshal his issued no order to "keepers of houses of ill-repute to leave the city"—the necessity does not exist for the statement that such a course was even in the remotest degree required, either for the advancement of our morals as a community or for the reputation of our people abroad. If the immorality pointed out by the Plain Dealer existed even in the smallest part, there might be some grounds for its virtuous indignation of two weeks ago; there might exist some cause, it is true, for the city officials to order the keepers of these places of ill-repute to leave the city. But where are these places? The Plain Dealer said a fortnight ago there were five of these dives. Where are they? If any proof were necessary to show that the Plain Dealer lied when it made that vicious statement, one need only repeat the statement of Marshal Steadman that the Plain Dealer now lies again when it publishes the statement that he has "issued an order to the keepers of these places to leave the city." The Plain Dealer's statement relative to lewd women in Anaheim is a vicious falsehood. No community in California enjoys a more enviable reputation for peace-loving and moral people than those in this city. And the wanton Plain Dealer knew of this fully when it published the falsehood. But if the Plain Dealer, in its fat-witted attempt to recede from its untenable position, offers in future its active support in the enforcement of the laws of the city, what becomes of E. P. Fowler's attempt to suborn, by secret collusion, men temporarily out on bail for committing an infraction of the city ordinance; advising them not to appear at their trial, and that if any trouble or expense arose as a consequence of their non-appearance, he would stand good for it? Before the Marshal can accept the Plain Dealer's eleventh-hour repentance and offer of aid in the discharge of his duties, he must require an explanation of Fowler's attempt to defeat the ends of justice. What has Fowler to say of that, not the most flagrant of his many dishonorable acts since in- A PEAT-LAND MURDER. Jack Grigsby Shot Down in Cold Blood by Tom Cook-A Truthful Account of the Murder by an Eye-Witness. John Grigsby, aged 30 years, a resident of the Peat Lands, well known and held in high esteem by his associates, was shot and fatally wounded, in what appears to be an unprovoked and cold-blooded murder, by Thomas Cook, aged about 45, on the public road in Westminster township, 2½ miles south and one mile west of that town, on Friday last about 12:45 o'clock. Grigsby died on Saturday at half-past I succumbing to an assassin's bullet on the day before his thirtieth birthday. He was buried in the Anaheim cemetery on Monday at noon. The respect in which he was held by his neighbor and associates is best attested in this long string of carriages that follows. The remains to their last resting place. Thomas Graham, who was with Grigsby when he was shot, he believed his almost constant companion, who found on Monday afternoon in the Dover restaurant in the Backs' block, gether with Jack Nicholson of Whitier, an old-time friend of the murdered man; Mrs. Grigsby, the widow, a number of the neighbors of the deceased, eating dinner after the funeral. Graham told the following story: The killing: He and Grigsby were engaged in loading potatoes in Peat Land, and were getting ready to Whittier and Los Nietos with two loads of potatoes that afternoon; the foreoonon they had taken out sacks and placed them in the road; point where they shooting occurred and in the afternoon they returned; field to partly load the wagon; tending to finish out their load with 20 sacks when they again reached road. The land was Peat and hard hauling, so that two trips had be made to finish out the load. They had reached the road and went into loading 20 sacks of potatoes, Cook and a man named J Waters came along in a cart. We reached a point opposite the end of Grigsby's wagon she looked up and saw Cook. Grigsby said to Cook: I want you give an account of yourself for this you have been talking to my wife. It appears that some weeks before Graham's father, who raised a corn in company with Cook, sailed Mrs. Grigsby, who is a friend of family, that when roasting ears ripe, she might go into the corn and take some home for a meal. Did so, when the roasting ears ripe, Cook saw her. He foll OUR more or less esteemed contemporary, the Plain Liar, makes a great to do over a circular letter issued in a spirit of jocularity from this office a number of years ago. The circular was not sent out to candidates right and left, as our contemporary would have its few readers infer, but if we remember rightly, a half-dozen copies only were mailed to personal friends of the publishers of this journal—none were sent to candidates except those with whom we had been on personal terms of intimacy for years. Moreover, the few to whom the circular was sent had already authorized us to insert their card—the letter asked for nothing else. It occasioned a hearty laugh on the part of all, and was passed off with a laugh, except by one or two soreheads who sought to misconstrue its intent. The Plain Liar is welcome to all the comfort it can extract from it, and be blowed to it! THE WEARY RAGGLES of the Plain Liar is welcome to all the comfort he may be able to extract from any doubts relative to the identity of the editors of this paper—and be blowed to him again! Their names appear at the head of the editorial columns, and if any further proof may be deemed to be necessary, it can be produced on application to the office cat. However, it is not necessary for us to go outside of our office to procure men to show up in their true colors those whose dishonorable career is a by-word to every man, woman and child in the community. "We can enlighten the editor of the GAZETTE upon one point, and that is that E. P. Fowler has, though persistently solicited by the best citizens of the county, never been a candidate for office, and under no circumstances could he be induced to accept office at the hands of his fellow-citizens."—Plain Dealer. We can enlighten the editor of the Plain Dealer upon another point, and that is that if E. P. Fowler were ever up for office in Orange county he would be the worst defeated man who ever ran for office in the county. No such cattle are nominated by men of practical sense and experience, the words of doubtful truth of our contemporary to the contrary and notwithstanding. One of the things he said to us was a request never to mention his name for any office in the gift of the people, etc.—Same source. Then why prate about him as representative from Orange county to "the meeting in Chicago in November to discuss the Nicaragua canal?" Oh, no! Fowler will not do for that! We couldn't spare his smirking countenance so far away from home. In our item last week, referring to Ed Kraemer's quall hunting and the present short open season in Orange county, the intelligent compositor, while he set up the first part of the laws of the city, E. P. Fowler attempts to suborn, by secret collusion, men temporarily out on bail for committing an infraction of the city ordinance; advising them not to appear at their trial, and that if any trouble or expense arose as a consequence of their non-appearance, he would stand good for it! Before the Marshal can accept the Plain Dealer's eleventh-hour repentance and offer of aid in the discharge of his duties, he must require an explanation of Fowler's attempt to defeat the ends of justice. What has Fowler to say of that, not the most flagrant of his many dishonorable acts since inflicting his presence like a noxious stench upon this community? News comes from Santa Monica to the effect that F. G. Ryan breathed his last on Saturday evening at his home at that place. The interment occurred on Monday. The news of Mr. Ryan's death brings sorrow to many of his old-time friends and acquaintances, who will learn of his death with regret. The deceased came to Anaheim some ten years ago, and being a man of large means, he purchased the Brookshurst orange grove. During his residence here he was universally respected as a man above the average in ability, and he was esteemed on all sides for those qualities that endure one to his friends. He was elected Director of the irrigation district and later, being of opinion that the district law was not based upon sound judgment, took an active part in bringing about its disorganization. He was subsequently elected a Director of the water company, and for a time served as the President of the company, and presided at a number of the meetings. He was also at one time quite favorably spoken of for Supervisor from this district. Mr. Ryan some five years ago disposed of a half interest in the Brookshurst ranch to A. H. Cargill, and recently disposed of the remainder of his interest in that beautiful tract to that gentleman. He removed with his family to Santa Monica, where he has since resided, being prominent in business and society, and taking an interest in golf, polo and other amateur sports. He was ill about a month, and a fortnight ago telephoned to friends here that although he had been in bed ill for two weeks, was improving and expected to be out shortly. He succumbed to dropay. He was a native of England, and was about 42 years of age. He leaves a wife and three small children to mourn his loss. THE SOLDIER BOYS. Are Anxious to Be Mustered Out Because There Seems to Be no Further Use for Them. PRESIDIO, Cal., Oct. 8, 1898. EDITOR GAZETTE, Anaheim, Cal.-Dear Sir: Inclosed you will find clipping from your paper of the 6th inst., in regard to the Seventh Regiment, California Volunteer Infantry. While the article is correct in the main, it is somewhat inaccurate as regards the boys having rebelled at the prospect of going to Manila. Instead of having rebelled against going to Manila, the boys have at all times been eager and willing to go where they could be of some service to their country, but when it was evident that there was not the least shadow of a chance for active service (which was the case when the men put in their applications for discharge) the enlisted men wished to be relieved of duty, so they could go home and resume their duties in citizen life. Grigsby said to Cook: I want you give an account of yourself for you have been talking to my wife. It appears that some weeks before Graham's father, who raised a corn in company with Cook, sailed Mrs. Grigsby, who is a friend of family, that when roasting ears ripe, she might go into the corn and take some home for a meal did so, when the roasting ears ripe, ripe and Cook saw her. He foll her to Westminster and abused shamefully for what he termed theft. She replied that Mr. Grigsby had told her to go and get the roses, but Cook replied that what was taking Graham's corn she was stealing his. He heaped vile epilogue upon her. When Grigsby accosted Cook roadside, asking an accounting Cook, the latter replied: "You son of a — I'll give you an act of it," and climbed out of his cart his pistol in his hand. Grigsby said to him: If you were fight, I don't want to fight you with pistol. Give your pistol to that Waters, and I'll fight it out with "Where is your pistol?" asked applying a vile epithet to Grigsby. Grigsby-I have no pistol. "You have got a pistol, and have a pistol," replied Cook, co-grigsby viciously. Grigsby-I have no pistol. want to fight me, give your gun to man Waters. I want no gun fight Cook-I did not abuse your wife Grigsby-You did abuse my wife Cook accused Grigsby of cuttin wire fence, heaping opprobrium theft upon him, Grigsby denying with Cook for his accusations. At this point Cook leveled his at Grigsby's stomach. Grigsby man weighing 212 pounds, 6 feet in height, and Cook aimed deliberately at his abdomen. Graham said: Don't shoot him Grigsby said: Don't shoot me Cook turned a deaf ear to the eyes of his victim, and shot, the hearing Grigsby's stomach ankle right of the navel. Grigsby took round his wagon. Cook him again, hitting him in the Grigsby fell in the road, calling Graham," Tom, I am shot, come! Cook walked up to the prosthetic pistol in hand, and said to Waters you hear men call me a ———listed stood menacingly at the side of len man, and Graham said to him better let me have your horse stand and let me go and get a doctor request Cook refused. Graham then asked that Cook Waters for a doctor. This Cooktoo and Graham went to the hite Mr Moore, some 250 yards away brought a mattress. When he cooked had Grigsby's head on him and was wiping away the blood. F. C. Shevlin of this city dressed for the wounded man, who had great pain. Cook drove on to Santa Ana rendered himself to the Sheriff now in jail. Grigsby was Moores' place, and his wife was of the shooting. He lingered unpast twelve the next day when His body was taken to Santa Ana prepared for burial, and was on interred in the Graham familymetheemetery here. His neighbors speak in their terms of praise of him saying One of the things he said to us was a request never to mention his name for any office in the gift of the people, etc. Then why prate about him as a representative from Orange county to "the meeting in Chicago in November to discuss the Nicaragua canal?" Oh, no! Fowler will not do that! We couldn't spare his smirking countenance so far away from home. In our item last week, referring to Ed Kraemer's quall hunting and the present short open season in Orange county, the intelligent compositor, while he set up the first part of the item correctly, transferred the criticism of Supervisor Armor, at the latter part of the item, to Ben Kraemer, Ed's brother. To this Ben excepts, and informs us that so far from passing criticisms upon Supervisor Armor, he does not know him, never having seen him, and does not know what he had to do with framing or passing the ordinance. In this connection it is proper to state that that part of the item was merely a jocular wind-up of a very readable quail story told our reporter by Ed Kraemer, who criticised the short open season as an injustice to hunters in Orange county, while hunters across the county line in Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties may continue the sport for five months. "The Marshal deserves commendation for taking the stand he has ["isuing an order to keepers of houses of ill-repute to leave the city"], even at this late day, and the Plain Dealer extends the praise due, as well as proffer of any service it may be able to render the Marshal at any time in the discharge of his duties. As an officer he will have the active support of the paper in carrying out his duties."—Saturday's Plain Dealer. Fudge! The Plain Dealer knew it lied when it printed the statement that five disorderly houses existed here; it knew it lied when it made the statement that the streets were overrun with immoral women, and it now knows it lies when it makes this vicious statement, (offering as it does a gratuitous insult to the man it has maligned), that the Marshal "has issued an order to keepers of houses of ill-fame to leave the city." Having created the impression among the few readers it has in outside communities that immoral women strutted our streets rampant, it now seeks to still further compound its lying by printing the state-Dear Sir:—Inclosed you will find clipping from your paper of the 6th inst., in regard to the Seventh Regiment, California Volunteer Infantry. While the article is correct in the main, it is somewhat inaccurate as regards the boys having rebelled at the prospect of going to Manila. Instead of having rebelled against going to Manila, the boys have at all times been eager and willing to go where they could be of some service to their country, but when it was evident that there was not the least shadow of a chance for active service (which was the case when the men put in their applications for discharge) the enlisted men wished to be relieved of duty, so they could go home and resume their duties in citizen life. Moreover, at the time we put in our applications for discharge it was with the understanding that we were only giving a sentiment of the enlisted men's wishes. It was so stated by some of the field officers; and we had no idea that our applications would ever be acted upon. I wish to make this statement because there has been considerable friction between officers and men, in which the men stand but a poor chance of being fairly represented. ONE OF MANY ENLISTED MEN. P. S.—It gives me much pleasure to see the way you go after the Plain Dealer. No paper started and run as that one has been deserves anything but contempt. Your truly. A meeting of the Deciduous Fruit Association of Anaheim was held at the City Hall on Saturday last. It was called to order by the chair. The following officers were present: J. B. Neff, president; G. A. Hunter, vice-president; G. E. Boyd, secretary; W. C. Eyman, director. A motion was made by G. A. Hunter that the bills and receipts as read be placed on file; seconded by W. C. Eyman. Motion carried. A motion was made by W. C. Eyman that the remaining 3 per cent of the 6 per cent received from the sales of the apricot crop for defraying the expenses of the California Fruit Exchange be paid to the growers; seconded by George A. Hunter. Carried. J. B. Neff stated that everything was in readiness for receiving the walnut crop at the Southern Pacific depot, and the company would begin to receive the first of the week. There being a few growers that would like to become members of the association, but had made up their minds to that effect too late to comply with the rules made by the association, it was moved by Mr. Eyman, and seconded by Mr. Hunter that the time for receiving new members be extended to October 22d. Carried. There will be a special meeting on October 22d, at 2 p.m. Cook drove on to Santa Ana rendered himself to the Sheriff now in jail. Grigsby was in Moore's place, and his wife was of the shooting. He lingered up past twelve the next day, when His body was taken to Santa Ana prepared for burial, and was on interred in the Graham family in theemetery here. His neighbors speak in their terms of praise of him, saying was a peaceably disposed and living man. He had no pistol on the time of the shooting, although travelling to be away from home night he usually carried a weapon. Cook bears a pretty hard rose as a gun fighter. Some years engaged in a pistol duel with brother, and later fired severely some young men in the Pelewham he accused of speaking spectfully of his wife. Grigsby had been married but leaves no children. Coroner Clark held an inquiry remains on Sunday. The jury in a verdict charging Cook commission of the deed.

REPUBLICAN RALLY. County Candidates to Be With Us In force on Saturday Evening. The second Republican rally in this city going this campaign will assemble at Planters' park on next Saturday evening, when the Republican candidates will be with us in force—Joe Nichols for Sheriff, Williams for District Attorney, Walter Robinson for Treasurer, Scott for Recorder, Beckett for County Clerk, Sherwood for Surveyor, Clark for Coroner, and all the rest of the nominees who have been making such an interesting campaign throughout the county. The candidates will be prepared to shake hands with all the voters, kiss babies, make a few remarks and look pleasant. The city band will be out and discourse new music, and a general good time is looked forward to. Seats will be provided for ladies, who are especially invited to be present, and accommodations will be made for a large outpouring of the people. Come out, everybody, and hear the speakers: Tomorrow night (Friday) F. H. Short of Fresno and Judge R. B. Carpenter will address the people upon the issues of the day at the Opera-house at Santa Ana. Mr. Short is one of the best-known Republicans of the Central part of the State, of whom the following is said: In the Republican State Convention of 1896, the Committee on Resolutions, in preparing its report, omitted to mention the Funding Bill, which was then prominently before the people of California. After the reading of the resolutions, and just as they were about to be adopted, a man of the Fresno delegation sprang to his feet and offered a resolution against the funding scheme of the Southern Pacific, which was carried with the wildest enthusiasm. That man was Frank H. Short of Fresno, one of the most able, eloquent, loyal and independent Republicans in the State, and one of the promotors of the San Joaquin Valley Road, the greatest rival of the Southern Pacific in California. Mr. Short is a warm supporter of Henry T. Gage for Governor, and the people of Orange county will now have an opportunity of listening to this gifted and fearless speaker. Mr. Short will touch up the railroad question, which our Democratic friends are talking so much about. Everybody come out and attend both meetings, and listen to the gospel of Republicanism and good government. OLIVE NOTES.

Occasionally the Olive mill is kept running all night. The new church is not yet completed, but the large boll is already in place, and its silvery tones help Olive on towards a city. Many Oliveites spent Sunday afternoon enjoying the Turn-Fest at Anaheim. Mrs. Baker has returned from a short trip to Los Angeles: C. P. Evans of Anaheim made the Olive school a pleasant call on Monday. J. S. Jesson started on a short business trip over the country on Monday, but on account of his wife's sudden illness returned home on Tuesday. Many pupils are reported absent at school. They are busy gathering walnuts. Charley Watson's little daughter is sick with the fever, but will soon be a convalescent. At the school house on Tuesday evening a Maguire club was formed, and all the Orange County Fusionist candidates except Mr. Ross, Mr. Taylor and Capt. Finley, were present and were given a reception. Mr. Gunther was elected chairman of the Maguire club. Wm. M. McFadden acted as chairman while the candidates were making their speeches. A meeting for all Maguire men is announced to take place in the school building next Thursday. Comfort in Crossing the Continest. When you start on a long journey, make yourself comfortable. It takes at least three days to get from California to the Missouri River, and to this must be added the time from the Missouri River to whatever may be your destination. You should choose a safe railway, an easy-riding car and make sure that you can get good food along the way. You must cross the desert some place, no matter which road you travel, and that feature of the trip is disagreeable, but it cannot be avoided. However, it is only an incident in a long trip, and it is quickly passed if you take the Santa Fe Route. It is a mistaken idea that the Santa Fe is a hot route—an idea persistently circulated by agents of competing lines. Once California is left, the Santa Fe lies across mountain ranges, whose altitude more than compensates for the southerly latitude. In July and August, 1897, the Santa Fe Route carried almost 15,000 members of the Christian Endeavor Society, and the universal testimony of these people was that it was cooler on the Santa Fe than on any of the other routes either north or south of it, and as nearly all of them within a few weeks, traveled one way over competing lines, their testimony is convincing. In addition to this, the Santa Fe is best railway. There was a time when perhaps this could not be said, but that is long past. It now has new and heavy steel rails, new ties and balustrades, iron and steel bridges, and the track takes rank among the best roads in the world. The equipment for passengers on the Santa Fe is new and excellent, and the trainmen and employees are polite and considerate, with every desire to treat you so that you will travel with them again. IN MEMORIUM. John Wesley Jamison Culton was born in the little town of Paola, Indiana 10th, 1819. His early boyhood and youth spent in Ohio, where as a lad of eleven years he started out bravely to fight the long battle of life. Gifted beyond the average with a thirst for knowledge, and an ambition that never owned defeat, he worked his way through school and into the front rank among successful business men. Fond of the sciences, he turned naturally to the study of geology, and read "the Sermons in Stones" that tell the world's history imperishably. "The Culton Collection" he donated to a college in Chicago, and has long stood prominent as an authority in the science he loved. The early struggles developed an intense sympathy with all youth, and every boy found in him a staunch friend and admirer. Identified with some of the stirring history of Chicago, and always active in the sure development of that city, he failed in health, and came to California seeking rest and surcise of pain. Active still, even when burdened with ill health and the infirmities of age, he invested heavily in land, having every hope for the future of this land of sunshine, and has done what he could to realize a cherished dream and help to improve and beautify a little part of the valley. Not so much a dreamer as a doer, he has worked until the tired hands dropped in helplessness, and the tired soul has gone home again. He was a member in high standing of Apollo Commandery, Knights Templars, of Chicago, and a member of Trinity Methodist church in the same city. A christian gentleman, a brave man, he has fought the good fight and found the rest and sleep He gives to His beloved, entering into the eternal slumber at sunset hour on the 7th day of October, 1898. "I am glad he has lived so long. And glad he has gone to his reward. Nor can I learn that Nature did him wrong.

He is now in jail. Griggsy was taken to Moore's place, and his wife was notified of the shooting. He lingered until half past twelve the next day, when he died. His body was taken to Santa Ana to be prepared for burial, and was on Monday interred in the Graham family lot in the cemetery here. His neighbors speak in the highest terms of praise of him, saying that he was a peaceably disposed and law-abiding man. He had no pistol on him at one time of the shooting, although when traveling to be away from home over night he usually carried a weapon. Cook bears a pretty hard reputation as a gun fighter. Some years ago he engaged in a pistol duel with his own brother, and later fired several shots at some young men in the Peat Lands whom he accused of speaking disrepectfully of his wife. Griggsy had been married five years, but leaves no children. Coroner Clark held an inquest on the remains on Sunday. The jury brought on a verdict charging Cook with the commission of the deed. Waters was subpoenaed to appear at the inquest, but failed to do so, and the neighbors say he has skipped out. Brown Leghorn Hens for Sale.

Spring St., Los Angeles. oct13-4t* The Virginia Dale Mining District in San Bernardino county is evidently an extensive and profitable field for investment of capital. The recent strike of the Reed Bros. is most wonderful. They have been prospecting in the district for a long time and are rewarded by discovering a good-sized vein of one, that carries from $200 to $30,000 per ton in gold. The Eagle mountains and the country north of Salton is also attracting considerable attention. There is a stage connection at Palm Springs via the Lost Horse, and Desert Queen mines to Virginia Dale, and via Walters for Eagle mountains. Take the Southern Pacific route in either case, for close connection and low rates of fare. The Santa Fe is the best railway. There was a time when perhaps this could not be said, but that is long past. It now has new and heavy steel rails, new ties and balast, and iron and steel bridges, and the track takes rank among the best roads in the world. The equipment for passengers on the Santa Fe is new and excellent, and the trainmen and employees are polite and considerate, with every desire to treat you so that you will travel with them again. The dining rooms and lunch counters along the Santa Fe are managed by Fred Harvey, and their excellence is so well known and has such a high reputation among travelers that thousands of people annually cannot be induced to travel over any other trans-continental line. The daily Overland express runs every day in the year and is equipped to accommodate passengers traveling on all classes of tickets. It carries Pullman Palace sleeping cars through from Los Angeles to Chicago and also Pullman Tourist sleeping cars. In addition to these it carries a reclining chair car, no extra charge being made for the seats. Nothing need be said of the standard Pullman Palace cars, as everyone is familiar with their luxurious fittings, but for those who desire to travel more economically and at the same time be quite comfortable the Tourist car has been established. The cars are built on the same plan as the Palace cars and in the day the beds become comfortable seats. A porter is in charge of each car to attend to the wants of the passengers. Clean linen and bedding is supplied and provision is made for passengers desiring to make coffee on the car, although the great majority take advantage of the lunch counter and dining room service. The cars are upholstered with rattan instead of plush as in the Palace cars. The Santa Fe Route reaches nearly every point of interest in Southern California. It is the best route to Los Angeles. The train service and equipment is the best. Special low commutation rates to Los Angeles and other points. A trip over the Kite Shaped track is one of special interest and can be made only over this line. You can reach all Eastern cities and towns at least 24 hours sooner than is possible via any competing line by getting your tickets over the Santa Fe Route.

The Sunset line is especially adapted to winter travel, and the limited trains are during the season crowded to their full capacity with an exclusively first-class patronage. This is the most magnificent train in America, vestibulated throughout, illuminated with Pintsch gas and heated by steam. Every train is made up as follows: One composite car containing bath-room, barber-shop, cafe, library and smoker; one compartment car with lavatory in each compartment, and parlor for the special use of ladies, and a ladies' maid in attendance; as many double drawing-room, ten-section sleepers as may be necessary, with toilet annexes, one dining-car, meals served a la carte. Season from November until April. In addition to the above first-class service the Southern Pacific tourist system is positively unequalled by any competitive schedule. Note carefully their various excursion routes, and take your choice. Tourist sleeper leave Los Angeles as follows, viz: Sunset route, via New Orleans, to Chicago—8:15 a.m., Tuesday; Sunset route, via El Paso, to Chicago—8:15 a.m., Tuesday; Sunset route, via El Paso to St. Paul—8:15 a.m., Wednesday; Sunset route, via El Paso to St. Paul—8:15 a.m., Wednesday; Sunset route, via El Paso to St. Paul—8:15 a.m., Wednesday; Los Angeles to Minneapolis—12:30 a.m., Thursday; Los Angeles to Chicago—12:30 a.m., Friday; Los Angeles to Sacramento, 10:20 p.m., daily, and connect at Sacramento with a through tourist sleeper to Chicago. Shasta route—Los Angeles to Portland, 10:20 p.m. daily; Los Angeles to St. Paul, 10:20 p.m. Tuesday; Los Angeles to St. Paul, 10:20 p.m. Monday, only once each month. First and second-class tickets for sale at Anaheim at Los Angeles prices, and baggage checked through to any point in the United States, Canada or Mexico. Our local train service is unexcelled for comfort. Day coaches are equipped with the celebrated Scarritt seats, luxuriously upholstered, and passengers for Los Angeles are landed right in the center of the business part of the city—a First street or Commercial street—within a block of the large wholesale houses. Our connection at Mojave for the famous gold mining camp of Randsburg is superb; good hotel at Mojave and elegant stage coaches through to the city of gold. Fare from Anaheim to Randsburg,$7.56.

EDITOR GAZETTE: Under the above headline appears in last week's Plain Dealer an editorial wherein is correctly stated that I am not and never was connected with that paper, and that I do not represent it in any manner or ever did. This statement is very gratifying to me. I always have been most anxious not to be told responsible for anything appearing in the Plain Dealer and not bearing any signal, and constantly have furnished all connection beyond furnishing a series of articles on economic matters. Especially in my anxious not to be held responsible for anything not written by myself, because I have disapproved, from a business standpoint, of the lines whereon Mr. Valigan, the secree, intended to conduct it, even before the appearance of the first issue, and ever has conducted it. Therefore I rejoice in the publication of the editorial referred to. It substantiates authoritatively what I have all along been anxious to have understood. But the reason given for the statement is most often the paper says that I am supposed to have declared last week in Garland Grove that I was connected with it! I was at Garden Grove. With one man, and one only—Mr. J. L. Holley—did I discuss the Plain Dealer; and I have a statement over his own signature concerning the Plain Dealer is false. Since the vile and unwarranted attacks on character, the low-bred scurrility and the vulgarity in the paper, no man with pretension to decency can afford to have his name connected with the paper. P. E. Fowler is the principal stockholder and virtual owner of the Plain Dealer, and is responsible for the conduct of the paper, and for whatever there may appear. Because Mr. Valigan is merely lesseer for one year, without pecuniary consideration, and occasionally in sore financial straits. I have addressed 3 courtesy remonstrance against the Plain Dealer's evil complained of. No doubt he will feel himself in honor bound to have requested that remonstrance published in the next issue of the paper. But, as the Gazette appears on an earlier date and has a wider circulation you will oblige me by kindly publishing the above. I. J. Rochussen. Orphans.

"My little boy was taken with inflammatory rheumatism when he was two years old. Some one had to sit up with him every night. At one time we thought he could not live from day to day. He had a heart trouble caused by the rheumatism. I had about given up all hope of his recovery, but I got a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Before he had taken half the contents he began to improve. He kept on gaining and now he is well and strong and goes to school every day. I owe his life to Hood's Sarsaparilla," Mrs. P. S. Lockridge, 1228 West Second Street, Los Angeles, Cal.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, Ill. makes the statement that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her Druggist suggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption; she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself benefited from first dose. She continued its use and after taking six bottles, found herself sound and well; now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was—Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at Paul A. Derge's Drug Store. Large bottles 50 cents and $1. RECORD OF THE TEMPERATURE. Maximum. Minimum. Average.

A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition my skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite; gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters' and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cents per bottle at P. A. Derge's Drug Store. Experience teaches the value of Hood's Sarsaparilla: It is constantly accomplishing wonderful cures and people in all sections take it, knowing it will do them good.
