The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, CHARLES KUCHEL, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY...DECEMBER 22, 1895 THE Los Angeles Times of Sunday prints the following statement, which reads somewhat strangely to us: Two weeks ago there was reprinted in this department, from the Anaheim Gazette, a description of the ostrich farm at Fullerton. This description contained several inaccuracies. The first inaccuracy is, that the farm at Fullerton was the first started in this country. The truth is, the farm was first started at Anaheim; then the Norwalk farm was established by Edwin Cawston, and then, after that, the farm referred to was started at Fullerton. The second inaccuracy is with reference to the price of birds. The regular market price for a full grown bird is $125 to $150, not $75 as alleged. It is also stated: "Right out of the shell $1 will purchase an infant." This is still more at variance with the facts. Chicks sell from $20 to $35, according to age; and the empty ostrich shells find a ready sale at $1 each, as a souvenir of California ostrich culture. Lastly, it is stated that ostrich feathers vary from $5 to $70 a pound. Mr. Cawston's best feathers always find a ready sale in the New York market at $100 a pound, when he has any to spare from the local demand. No such article was ever printed in the Gazette, nor was any such article ever republished from our columns into the Times. More pains are taken in the preparation of this paper than the above would signify; and it would be absolutely impossible for such an absurdly misleading article ever to have appeared in these columns. The official returns of the vote cast on Nov. 8 in the three States which have adopted constitutions disfranchising the colored voters are highly suggestive: State Rep Dem Total. Louisiana 5667 27,629 33,296 Mississippi 3873 23,804 27,377 South Carolina 2823 28,970 31,793 These three States have an estimated population of 4,600,000, which, according to the ratio of one male of voting age to each five persons, would make the aggregate number of males of voting age about 920,000. But only 92,466 weather required his almost undivided attention at other points of the ditch. Mr. Fay stated that during the recent windstorm the flume on the North Branch ditch at Benchley's place fell down, owing to the cement diluting with brush, overflowing and derermining the cement pier. A port of the cement ditch had also gone through. THE official returns of the vote cast on Nov. 8 in the three States which have adopted constitutions disfranchising the colored voters are highly suggestive: State. Rep. Dem. Total. Louisiana 5667 27,629 33,236 Mississippi 3573 23,804 27,377 South Carolina 2823 28,970 31,793 These three States have an estimated population of 4,600,000, which, according to the ratio of one male of voting age to each five persons, would make the aggregate number of males of voting age about 920,000. But only 92,466 votes were cast in all of them, or one vote to each ten males of voting age. These three States elect twenty members of Congress, and, with a total of 92,466 votes cast, there was an average of only 4623 votes to each Representative in Congress. There are single Congressional districts in the North which polled nearly as many votes as were cast in all these States, and there is probably not a Northern district which did not cast as many votes as were polled in any one of them. Since 1870 the aggregate vote of Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina has fallen off 401,826, notwithstanding the increase in population in these states. If the white vote alone be considered, the poll is still only a fraction of the voting strength. SUPERINTENDENT GREELEY has made the following apportionment of school money to the various school districts in the county. The apportionment is made on a basis of $250 to each teacher. The total amount of the district school funds distributed is $21,090; library fund, $1354.50. In addition to these amounts the following sums are allowed to the three High Schools in the county: Anaheim, $1677.96; Fullerton, $2258.58; Santa Ana, $6301.07. For repairs and other necessary expenditures, Newhope is allowed $149.25, and Santa Ana $2100.35. Following are the amounts allowed the different districts for school and library purposes: | School Fund | Library Fund | | :--- | :--- | | Alamitos | $225 | | Allso | $225 | | Anaheim | 2450 | | Bolsa | 450 | | Buena Park | 225 | | Centralla | 450 | | Glencoe | 225 | | Cypress | 225 | | Delhi | 725 | | Diamond | 225 | | El Modena | 470 | | El Toro | 325 | | Fairview | 225 | | Pountain Valley | 215 | | Fullerton | 700 | | Garden Grove | 950 | | Laguna | 225 | | La Habra | 215 | | Laurel | 475 | | Magnolia | 225 | | Mountain View | 450 | | Newhope | 225 | Newport Beach | 225 | Ocean View | 700 | Olive | 480 | Orangethorpe | 480 | Perralta | 225 | Placencia | 460 | San Juan | 700 | Santa Ana | 4150 | Silverado | 225 | Trabuca | 225 | Tustin | 1250 | Westminster | 480 | Yorba | 225 | CURRENT statistics in Colorado carry with them a striking moral. The people there are just waking up to the fact DOWN GOES THE FLUME. And Zanjero Stone Gets a Suspension From Duty Because of it. The water board met in regular session on Saturday afternoon; present, Directors Fay, Rea, Carpenter, McFadden, Pierotti and Nebelung. Mr. Fay reported, in the matter of the leasing of land at the reservoir site, that there had been practically no applicants; a few had inquired after the rental of small pieces of the tract, and one applicant had asked that morning for the rental of ten acres. He had been referred to the board. Practically therefore, there has been no applications for the land, and the matter of renting continued in stat quo. Mr. McFadden was of opinion that no application for the rental of the tract would be made before it rained. Secretary Blennnerhassett reported that the valve to use in blowing out the sand in the water pipe at Abbey's corner had arrived. Mr. Pierotti said the Ditch Committee had nothing to report. Under the head of communications the Secretary read a letter from Fritz Ruhmann directing the board's attention to the unsatisfactory condition of the ditch at the corner of Los Angeles and Cypress streets, it being badly washed. Mr. Ruhmann submitted a proposition to pay half the cost of cementing or piping the ditch for a distance of 135 feet westwardly from the point indicated. Mr. Melrose observed that the continuation of the same ditch at the schoolhouse was also in badly washed condition and ought to be cemented or piped. After discussion, the matter was referred to the Ditch Committee to ascertain the size of pipe required and the cost of laying the same, or of cementing the entire ditch. Mr. Pierotti, under the head of general business, stated that some weeks ago the board decided to abandon the ditch on the east line of the Kroeger tract, between Fullerton and Placentia, and to locate the same on the north line of the Carpenter tract. Nothing had been done in the matter and he called it up to ascertain the reason therefor. Mr. Carpenter said that the present ditch on the north line of his property is in such character of soil that the running of water through it is a detriment to the property alongside of it. It is badly cut out, frequently overflows, and is generally in an unsatisfactory condition. He considered the wisest course to pursue was to abandon the Kroeger ditch and to cement the ditch along his north line. Mr. McFadden suggested that the Otto des Granges proposition, made some weeks ago, to haul gravel for the cementing of the ditch which runs alongside of his property, is washing out and in unsatisfactory condition, be called up for consideration. He believed that if Des Granges would make the same proposition it would be accepted. Mr. Pierotti stated the terms of Des Granges' proposition, which included weather required his almost undivided attention at other points of the ditch. Mr. Fay stated that during the cent windstorm the flume on the No Branch ditch at Benchley's place fell down, owing to the cement dilining with brush, overflowing and dermining the cement pier. A port of the cement ditch had also gone on account of the washing away of backfilling. The loss was occasion by the neglect of Zanjero Stone said, and him he had suspended for duty pending the investigation of board. Mr. McFadden resented with some asperity the charge that the dam was the result of neglect on the zanjero. The wind was blowing gale, and on Placentia avenue eleven large trees had been blown over ditch. The zanjero, Mr. McFadden said, was busily engaged in caring for the Placentia ditch, and could now everywhere on the line of the panys' ditches. Mr. Fay stated calmly that after careful investigation of all the circumstances surrounding the case he suspended the zanjero pending an investigation by the board. Mr. McFadden—The zanjero is tributing water just the same! The discussion brought out that the cement ditch at Brownie had been washed out for some distancing during storm by filling with bish, overflowing and washing out backfill. Mr. Carpenter suggested that discussion of these matters be taken in executive session. Mr. Fay thought it was proper public affair. Mr. McFadden moved that we board be appointed a committee investigation. There was no second Mr. Carpenter handed off communication from Mr. Bench which after reading Mr. Fay obser ved better be taken up in exec session. The board, after permitting Key to take 20 barrels of cement wad been apportioned to Mr. McFadden, with consent of the latter man, Mr. Key having run short that number of barrels, went into cultive session. After adjournment of the board was reported that the action of Fay in suspending Zanjero Stone been sustained by the board. Mr Kea, Carpenter and Nebelung vowed to sustain the chair and McFadden Pierotti voting no. Two Pointed Questions Answered What is the use of making a best article than your competitor if you not get a better price for it? Ans.-As there is no difference in price the public will buy only this terer so that while our profits may smaller on a single sale they will much larger in the aggregate. How can you get the public to your make is best? If both articles are brought pneently before the public both certain to be tried and the public very quickly pass judgment on and use only the better one. This explains-the-large sale on Oberlin's Cough Remedy. The paper have been using it for years and found that it can always be deponed. They may occasionally try with some fashionable novelty pu CURRENT statistics in Colorado carry with them a striking moral. The people there are just waking up to the fact that the State was doing well all through the period when the voice of calamity was heard from every stump in the State. Riches have been thrust upon Colorado in a stream, and were piling up even while the State was bucking ferociously on the financial question. Wealth is the reward of Colorado for not getting what it talked for and voted for. The Denver Times says that "Colorado wakes up greater every morning." And Bryan is not the architect of this good fortune, though he received in Colorado 161,269 votes to 26,279 for McKinley. The women of Colorado voted as well as the men, yet the united wisdom of both sexes was unequal to form a correct judgment of what was best for that State and all the others. In 1892 Colorado mined gold to the value of $5,539,021 and silver worth $17,634,944. Last year its gold production was $19,579,637 and silver $13,000,-000. While the yield of gold has been jumping up prodigiously that of silver has fallen off only to a limited extent. In the last six years silver production, compared with the average of 1892, fell off $20,949,644, and, within the same period, the gold production of the state increased $53,621,379. The excess of increase of gold over decrease of silver was $32,671,735. This shower of gold was falling all through the memorable years of wailing and predictions of ruin. In the year of Cleveland's last election Colorado's gold and silver amounted to $23,000,000. In the dark year of 1894 it was $26,000,-000. In the year that Colorado went as one without hope over the defeat of Bryan it was $29,000,000. The first year the advance agent of prosperity got to work it was $32,000,000, and this year the figures will go still higher. Mr. Pierotti stated that the Otto des Granges proposition, made some weeks ago, to haul gravel for the cementing of the ditch which runs alongside his property, is-washing out and in unsatisfactory condition, be called up for consideration. He believed that if Des Granges would make the same proposition it would be accepted. Mr. Pierotti stated that terms of Des Granges' proposition, which included hauling gravel and cement for the construction of the ditch. The ditch was in very poor condition, as three hundred inches of water had to be turned into it in the summer time and kept there for several days to get 50 inches down to Mr. Carpenter's place; then when the ditch had become wet 100 inches had to be turned on to get 50 inches down to Mr. Carpenter's place. Mr. McFadden moved after further discussion that the Ditch Committee be requested to prepare an estimate of the cost of a cement ditch from Des Granges' northeast corner to Carpenter's northwest corner, a distance of one mile; and to report at the next meeting. Seconded by Mr. Nebelung and carried. Engineer Sherwood was, at the suggestion of the chair, added to the committee. Mr. Pierotti stated that he had been asked by Supervisor Potter relative to the petition for a road through the reservoir site at La Habra. The matter was after discussion referred to the attorney to prepare the necessary petition asking for the abandonment of the old road and petitioning for the construction of the new. Engineer Sherwood said that when the old road through the reservoir tract was abandoned, the road now running from Whittier to Tuffree's would then be closed, and that steps should be taken for the laying out of a new road between these places. Mr. McFadden stated that latter was not a county road, and had only been traveled since Maj. Klokke closed up the old road running through his orange orchard. Mr. Carpenter reported that his attention had been called to the fact that nothing had been done with reference to the pipe ordered placed in the ditch in front of Frank Porter's place. The attention of Superintendent Sheppard was again directed to the necessity for the work. The pipe is now on the ground, and would probably have been laid ere this had not the duties of the superintendent during the recent bad event to the property alongside of it. It is badly cut out, frequently overflows, and is generally in an unsatisfactory condition.

An Organization Formed to Favor the Canal,and Orange County Men Named to Assist in the Enterprise. On December 15th there gathered at the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce delegates from the several counties of Southern California,the purpose of considering the matter of united action.on behalf of this section of the country.in endeavoring to bring about early action by the United States Government in the construction of the Nicaragua Canal.The meeting was largely attended and enthusiastic,and it resulted in the formation of the Nicaragua Canal Association of Southern California.This action was taken in response to an evident universal desire in this section that Southern California should act promptly and vigorously in the effort to advance this great undertaking which is destined to be of incontimable benefit to every interest in Southern California. An organization was perfected,ybays adopted,officers elected,and general resolutions passed calling for the sending of delegates to Washington and other active measures of whatever kind should be deemed effectual;and the raising by subscription of $6000 in the counties of Southern California.Beyond this the work of the Association has been placed in the hands of an executive committee. The work of the committee has so ingledton,但as many things are considered no final decision has reached。它是 expected that more delegates will be sent to represent this association.for Southern California,and then being enlisted the assistance o who will act for and co-open this association.而 while not presenting it.Similar associations being formed over the entire country and too much aid and encouragement cannot be given them. W.J.Fay,H.A.Dickel and Cargill have been appointed as tee to solicit subscriptions for this citation.J.W.Whitakerof Bus is the Orange County vice-presidentthe association. Yellow Jaundice Cured.

Good looks are really more than skin up, depending entirely on a healthy condition of all, the vital organs.

Deafness Cannot be Cured. by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the eustachian tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken but and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Each county is represented in the organization by a vice-president, who is organizing in his county several committees who will endeavor to raise the amounts allotted. The work of these committees is now well under way. The executive committee is giving careful consideration to the matter of a selection of delegates to go to Wash- Cave Up Hope Feared Her Little Boy Could Not Recover But Hood's Sarsaparilla Made Him Well and Strong. "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.
