The point raised by Supervisor Nickey at last week's meeting of the Board of Supervisors, to the effect that the work done by the Horticultural Commissioners should be charged to the orchardists in whose favor the work is done, is not, it seems to us, well taken. Supervisor Snover, moreover, taking sides with Mr. Nickey, expressed himself as believing that, inasmuch as horsemen pay for the services of a veterinary surgeon, the citrus and deciduous fruit growers should pay for work performed in their interest. But this position, it seems to us, is untenable. In the first place, all fumigation performed, let us say by Mr. Cargill or Mr. Pendleton, for instance, is paid for by those gentlemen. If all the horticulturists of this district were men of their stamp, the need of a Horticultural Commission would in great part be obviated. But occasionally a non-resident orchardist, whose trees may be badly infested with scale, standing as they do a menace to adjacent orchards, makes it incumbent upon the people to deal with him in a manner calculated to remove the danger of contagion; and at times, indeed, resident growers, with singular lack of forethought, make it necessary in much the same manner to invoke the law for the protection of the community. In such instances the expense of cleaning such orchards is made a charge against the county. The county pays the bill, and the amount is taxed against the property. We have recently tary conditions prevail. On the other hand, it is also true that it frequently occurs in sections and homes of wealth and education and refinement, where sanitary conditions prevail in the highest degree, which proves that it is an epidemic that may prevail to some extent under any and all conditions, but is more severe, wide-spread and more fatal in filthy, unclean and unsanitary localities. As to its real nature, we quote from a late authority as follows: "Diphtheria is a local specific disease due to the presence and action of bacilli, characterized by a deposit of pseudo-membrane at the site of infection, accompanied by constitutional disturbances and followed by nervous symptoms due to the absorption into the circulation of a virulent chemical agent (toxalbumen) which is produced by the local development of the bacilli." It will be seen from this extract that the disease is considered local at first, becoming general and constitutional as the poison is absorbed into the system from the local bacilli. Let the cause be what it may, we certainly have a great influence over its severity and spread by sanitation, isolation and inoculation. Sanitary measures consist of strict cleanliness and disinfection of all sinks, privies, cesspools and other sources of unhealthfulness, the ventilation of cellars, closets and houses, and the destruction of all garbage and refuse. These things can be done by every householder and citizen, and are the plain duty of everyone. Isolation is accomplished by strict quarantine of all cases as soon as they occur, and the last preventative measure, that of inoculation, is done by injecting diptheritic serum into those who have been or are likely to be exposed to the disease. This proven to have considerable effect, and counties, Santa Barbara has a census school children, F4799, Ventura 3793, San Luis shows up well with 5156. County during the past five years increased in population air largely as San Bernardino and side counties combined. We next five years Orange will pass San Bernardino county eleventh among the 57 counties State. Truly this is a wreck record for the gem county Southland. FUMIGATING AND SPRAYING Mr. Huntington Has a Few Words Upon the Subject. EDITOR GAZETTE:—If the county in the State of California presents, or has presented, field of labor for Horticulture missioners, that county is the Orange. The horticultural commissioner to work even on the month if he deems it necessary to pass San Bernardino county eleventh among the 57 counties State. Truly this is a wreck record for the gem county Southland. These laws knew the difficult surroundings the fruit grow knew the obstacles that stood way, and they decreed that men should be appointed them in their industry; that should be appointed in each giving them power to divide into districts, placing one sioner in each district. Now, when the Commissioner organizes and counts ing as they do a mischievous orchard, makes it incumbent upon the people to deal with him in a manner calculated to remove the danger of contagion; and at times, indeed, resident growers, with singular lack of forethought, make it necessary in much the same manner to invoke the law for the protection of the community. In such instances the expense of cleaning such orchards is made a charge against the county. The county pays the bill, and the amount is taxed against the property. We have recently seen how a chap belonging to the former gentry made haste to pay a charge against his property for work of this character, in order to clear the title; when, as a matter of fact, in the beginning, refusing to clean his trees, he permitted them to threaten with contagion one of the fairest sections of the county. The expense of invoking the law (the charge of the Horticultural Commissioner) is borne by the county. It is this charge which Supervisors Nickey and Snover object to. But how is it in paying road taxes or school taxes? Does the farmer pay the one in order to have roads constructed about his own property; or do we levy the other only upon those who send children to school? Certainly not. The question resolves itself into a matter of the greatest good to the greatest number, and the tax is borne by all persons alike. Beyond peradventure, our Horticultural Commissioners are among the most necessary, as they are among the most useful of all our public servants; for the scale question is a sore and serious menace to the advancement of the industries of the State. Had it not been for the opportune discovery of the "vedalia cardinalis," that valuable parasite that has divested the white scale (the most hideous and atrociously menacing of all scale pests) of its danger to citrus trees, probably not a carload of oranges would have been shipped out of California this year. The discovery of that parasite alone was worth millions to the State. Whereas once this scale threatened the very existence of the citrus industry, now its sporadic appearance in widely separated orchards is set at naught by the introduction of a colony of the parasites, which clean it out forthwith. Similarly has fumigation come to the aid of the orchardist. It is the application of scientific methods, in the hands of skilled horticulturists, that has made and is making the citrus industry profitable. While objection has been made to the expenditure of less than $900 per year by Orange county for the support of the Horticultural Commission, yet it is true that our neighbor River In conversation with T. S. Van Dyke, the well-known authority on water development and cognate subjects, in Los Angeles the other day, he said that Orange was probably the most favorably situated county in Southern California as regards an abundance of water for irrigation. The recent purchase of water rights on the Durkee tract he considers the cheapest buy of water ever made in the State, and he cannot but regard it as materially increasing the advantages of this section, viewed from an irrigation standpoint. Speaking of the rainfall, he said that while the precipitation in the valleys so far this season has been below the normal, yet the rain in the mountains has fallen in four or five times that volume. Last year and the year before, when the precipitation recorded marked the dryest epoch in the present generation, the rainfall in the mountains did not exceed to any appreciable extent the rainfall in the valleys. Consequently feed was sourced, and stock suffered greatly. This year, while the precipitation in the valleys is largely in excess of that of last year, the rainfall in the mountains is perhaps fifteen or twenty times as much as fell in the hills the last season to date. Feed is consequently abundant, and stock on ranges is doing as well as in a year of abundant valley rainfall. With the rain yet to fall in the valleys we ought, in Mr. Van Dyke's opinion, to have one of the most prosperous years in the history of Now, when the Commissionange county were appointed organize, and the county into three districts.

On stating the cause for the complaint alleges tha in January the defendant sent, right or justification played in their show wi appearance in widely separated orchards is set at naught by the introduction of a colony of the parasites, which clean it out forthwith. Similarly has fumigation come to the aid of the orchardist. It is the application of scientific methods, in the hands of skilled horticulturists, that has made and is making the citrus industry profitable. While objection has been made to the expenditure of less than $900 per year by Orange county for the support of the Horticultural Commission, yet it is true that our neighbor, River-side county, expends ten times that amount, and has probably the clearest orchards in the country. As was stated at the meeting of the Supervisors on Monday, ten years ago there existed absolutely no market for oranges grown in this county, whereas our fruit now sells along with the best. Do we desire to go back to the old order of things? If we do, let us abolish the Horticultural Commission. If we do not, let us aid the Commissioners in every way in their work. The cost is at best trivial; but no money is so well expended as in keeping in subjection the pests that menace one of the greatest industries of the State. Of all the infectious diseases prevalent in this country diphtheria is the most dreaded. It is dreaded because of the frightful mortality in severe epidemics, as well as the severity and loathsomeness of the ulceration of the throat, and added to these reasons are the uncertain views heretofore held by the medical profession as to the nature and cause of the disease, and, in fact, the same diversity still continues to some extent. That it is a highly infectious disease, sometimes spreading as a local epidemic, at other times sweeping over wide areas of country as a malignant epidemic, is well known, but the cause and real nature of the disease, beyond its manifestations by its principal symptoms, is still a question not fully settled by all schools of medicine. It has generally been called a filth disease, and it is certainly true that the most frightful mortality usually occurs in crowded tenements and poor quarters, where poor food, foul air, filth and unsanitary source, and stock suffered greatly. This year, while the precipitation in the valleys is largely in excess of that of last year, the rainfall in the mountains is perhaps fifteen or twenty times as much as fell in the hills the last season to date. Feed is consequently abundant, and stock on ranges is doing as well as in a year of abundant valley rainfall. With the rain yet to fall in the valleys we ought, in Mr. Van Dyke's opinion, to have one of the most prosperous years in the history of the county. There is one element of danger that threatens the county, in the opinion of this expert on hydraulics, which he is of opinion should challenge the careful attention of its citizens. It is the possible overflow of the Santa Ana river in times of abundant rainfall. Certainly we have experienced no danger from this source for the past few years of drought, but the time may come when great danger and loss to property may result from overflow. The subject is one that should engage the earnest attention of the Supervisors, so that preparations might be made to avoid property losses in the future. Mr. Van Dyke is a gentleman of wide experience and observation, and his flattering reference to the progress and prosperity of the county ought to be cause for congregation upon the part of its residents. The wonderful growth of Orange county is shown in nothing more plainly than in the recent apportionment of school money, which is based upon the number of school children in each county. During the year Orange county has passed Santa Cruz and Monterey, and is now twelfth in respect of school children among the 57 counties of the State. The following are the number of school children in the fourteen leading counties: San Francisco ... 75,392 Los Angeles ... 44,215 Alameda ... 30,527 Santa Clara ... 14,340 Sonoma ... 9,332 Sacramento ... 8,807 San Diego ... 8,329 Fresno ... 7,977 San Joaquin ... 7,338 Humboldt ... 6,718 San Bernardino ... 6,616 Orange ... 5,607 Santa Cruz ... 5,628 Monterey ... 5,337 Of the other Southern California... Counties, Santa Barbara has 4989 Census school children, Riverside 799, Ventura 3793, San Luis Obispo shows up well with 5156. Orange county during the past five years has increased in population almost as largely as San Bernardino and Riveride counties combined. Within the next five years Orange will no doubt pass San Bernardino county, and be eleventh among the 57 counties of the State. Truly this is a wonderful record for the gem county of the Southland. FUMIGATING AND SPRAYING. Mr. Huntington Has a Few Words to Say Upon the Subject. EDITOR GAZETTE:—If there is a county in the State of California that presents, or has presented, a broad field of labor for Horticultural Commissioners, that county is the county of Orange. The horticultural laws allow the Commissioner to work every day in the month if he deems it necessary; but the Board of Supervisors seems to think otherwise. This places the Commissioner in rather a bad plight. The good book says: "No man can serve two masters; either he will cleave to the one and despise the other, or he will despise the one and cleave to the other." The Board of Supervisors seem to think the laws unjust, but it is all right that the fruit grower should pay taxes on all trees in bearing. This is an extra burden for the fruit grower to bear, and should have some consideration. The horticultural laws were enacted for the protection and promotion of horticulture. The framers of these laws knew the difficulties that surrounded the fruit growers; they knew the obstacles that stood in their way, and they decreed that competent men should be appointed to protect them in their industry; that three men should be appointed in each county, giving them power to divide the county into districts, placing one Commissioner in each district. Now, when the Commissioners of Orange county were appointed we met to organize and the county was divided SWEET SINGER OF THE PEAT. Solicitor Hazard Chants the Praises of Bolsa Chica Bay. Frank R. Hazard of the Peat, who led the assault against the Bolsa Chica gun club at the meeting of the Supervisors a week ago Monday, when he put himself on record as saying that, unless the dam across the channel were removed, half the inhabitants of the county between the ocean and Santa Ana would be in their graves of malaria within the short space of two years, has written a communication which has been printed by the Santa Ana Herald, giving his further views upon the subject. Mr. Hazard has, it seems, a single string to his lyre; he seems to be desirous of having the Supervisors "take testimony" relative to the great and increasing unworth of the dam, with a view ultimately of carrying the case to the Governor! Now the Governor has always proved himself to be a friend to the oppressed, no matter of what class or previous condition of servitude, and if it could be shown to him that any community of the people of the commonwealth are being denied the rights vouchsafied them by the constitution, as well, as that an analysis of rising alkali salts tended to show the impending desolation of their homes, he would set himself about speedily to rectify the evil. He would probably lose no time in advising Mr. Hazard to take his case into the courts, and there establish his right to redress. So far as the power of the Supervisors to take testimony is concerned, that would avail the Peatlanders nothing, inasmuch as many of the questions raised by Mr. Hazard are out of jurisdiction of the board. Here is what he says: "WESTMINSTER, Cal., Jan. 22, 1900. "A few words of explanation of the gun club dam situation from one pretty well posted may be of interest to your readers. Bolsa Chica creek is a channel some 300 feet wide and 10 feet deep. It was formerly the best breeding ground for mullet known on this southern coast; always a great place for oysters and other shell fish; the best place for fishermen to procure bait; a good harbor for fishing and pleasure craft; much frequented by people as a pleasure resort, for fishing, boating and the extent of one dollar's worth, or any greater or less amount, the property belonging to them or others in Orange county or elsewhere. Furthermore, the gun club itself has said that if it finds the dam to be the source of any damage to the adjacent lands, the dam will be summarily withdrawn. What more in reason can these farmers ask for? Does Mr. Hazard think that these men who have purchased this tract of land and built the club house, have no rights under the law? Does he not know that the great bulk of the people of the county hold out a welcome hand to them; that the expenditure of the thousands of dollars by the club in transforming what was until lately a barren waste of sand dunes into a watering place of notably handsome equipment is warmly approved by the people of the county? These are, nevertheless, facts. And while the people of the county will not see the gun club damage the adjacent property, they hold to the view that the gun club people have rights which must be respected. And they object to the expenditure of the money of the people for the fighting in court of a case that does not concern them—which is a subject for the gun club and the adjacent farmers themselves to settle and determine. PLACENTIA. Mrs. Frank Dunham is very sick with pneumonia. Forbes Sandilands was down from Riverside on Sunday looking after his property here. The Kraemer ditch is being cemented by the water company; the job is about half done and a large gang of men are at work.

Fay Duzham, who has been laid up with spine trouble, is able to be about again. Major E. F. C. Klokke was down from Los Angeles on Saturday last looking after his property. Oranges still continue to move from this section, while a great many other places are shut down. The oranges being of such desirable sizes is the reason buyers are very anxious for them.

Now, when the Commissioners of Orange county were appointed we met to organize, and the county was divided into three districts. I was assigned to District No. 3, comprising all of the territory north of a line due west from Chapman street, Orange, and west of the Santa Ana river. This territory comprises a part of Garden Grove and Alamitos, the whole of Centralia, Buena Park, Anaheim, Fullerton, Placentia, La Habra, Olinda and Yorba. While the citrus orchards are in a fairly good condition (as the most of my labor has been in these orchards), the deciduous orchards are in a most deplorable condition; and unless something is done to relieve them the peach, apple, pear and plum trees are ruined. The San Jose scale is running rife, and I have no power to stop it. The Board of Supervisors says that if I labor more than half time they will cut off my official head. I started out last winter to try to do something. After looking about for some time I found a man who professed to understand spraying trees, but he had no pump and no money. I went with him to the hardware men and told them to fit him out with a new pump, and if he failed to pay in a reasonable time to collect from me. He got the pump and succeeded in spraying a great many orchards, and did much good. But this work that should be followed up, or no good results will ensue. Every deciduous orchard should be sprayed. All my work in the past, as well as what I may do in the future, has and will be done for the good of the fruit growers, and no fruit grower or any other man has ever intimated to me that I had failed in my duty, or that I was working too much, or that I was doing unnecessary labor, except the Board of Supervisors. They think that in the interest of economy this work should be curtailed. Is it in the interest of economy for me to sit at home and let the fruit industry of my district go to rack and ruin? My demands on the county for the last year have run from $52 to $66 per month. Some of these have been slightly cut at different times. I furnish my own conveyance, although the law allows me traveling expenses. If any fruit grower thinks my charges excessive, let him come to me and say so. I am, as ever, the fruit growers' servant.

Horticultural Commissioner. Objects to Models. NEW YORK, January 29.—Application was made in the Supreme Court today on behalf of Blanche Bates, the actress, for an injunction restraining Peck & Peck, hosiery dealers at 951 Broadway, from exposing models of the plaintiff or any part of her person or limbs. On stating the cause for the action, the complaint alleges that "since early in January the defendants, without consent, right or justification," have displayed in their show windows "models of a woman's legs, flesh colored, and extending from toe to hip;" and that each model has on it a long stocking "extending half way up the thigh." The latter are labeled with striking lines from "Naughty Anthony," and above all is the name of the plaintiff and a printed statement that the models were made from life. Miss Bates, the complaint continues, has never played in tights, or in any way displayed her legs except once, when she took the part of Rosalind, and then she wore high boots. Remarkable Rescue. 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. Only 50 cents and $1.00, every bottle guaranteed. Wifely Constancy. "I have been married for fifteen years and my wife never fails to meet me at the door." "Wonderful!"

The peatlands of our county are the very backbone of our prosperity. They have saved us from the verge of famine more than once, and that a lot of lawless outsiders are permitted to turn our best farms into shooting ponds is such an unspeakable outrage that the people of the county ought to rise and drive from the country forever every official who has not come out squarely against it. To be sure, the board has instructed the District Attorney to bring a civil suit. But they admit that it will be some years before relief can be obtained in that way, and today they refused to make a record of the evidence; in fact, refused to take evidence at all, being evidently afraid that it would be made the basis of an appeal to the Governor. "Let the people of Santa Ana hold an indignation meeting and send a petition to the Governor to remove the dam, open the right of way to the harbor and remove the derelict officials, and give us a chance to breathe pure air again." Mr. Hazard has it pretty tolerably bad; but what will he say when he hears that the following position, protesting against the illegal expenditure of the people's funds in a lawsuit against the Bolsa Chica gun club, is being signed by hundreds of people throughout Orange county? Mr. Hazard draws a long bow when he says the Peat has on several occasions saved Orange county from a famine, but being a man of great enthusiasm his statements are liable at times to get the upper hand and take a fall out of Hazard: To the Honorable Board of Supervisors of the county of Orange—Gentlemen: We, the undersigned owners of property and taxpayers of the county of Orange, hereby respectfully but earnestly protest against any of the tax funds of this county being used in prosecuting lawsuits or carrying on litigation of any kind against the Bolsa Chica Land company or the Bolsa Chica gun club on account of the dam erected by said company, or on account of any of the improvements constructed by them. We are of the opinion that the improvements constructed by these companies and the money expended by them has been of material benefit to the citizens of this county, and will continue to be of benefit, and that there should be no obstructions put in the way of their improving their land in the manner proposed; and that no part of the taxpayers' money should be expended in ill-advised litigation to satisfy the demands of the few who claim they will be damaged by these improvements. One thing is certain, and that Mr. Hazard and his Peatland friends may depend upon The Bolsa Chica gun club have not the right to damage to The weather during the week has continued generally warm, and favorable for crops of all kinds. Heavy fogs in some places have been beneficial, and light showers on Thursday and Friday were of considerable benefit to grain and pasture. Grain is still holding out well, though needing rain in some sections very soon. In the vicinity of San Diego preparations are being made for the extensive irrigation of lemon and orange groves. Early sown grain is up and looking bright. Prospects for large crops are still very good. Pasturage continues good, though in some places needing rain. The Duarte orange crop is said to be much larger than last season's, and generally of superior quality; picking and shipping are progressing rapidly.

County Clerk Beckett, School Superintendent Greeley, Assessor Vegeley, Mitt Phillips, Crockett Bowers and Chris M'Neil formed a jolly party of Santa Anans in town on Friday afternoon. These gentlemen are interested in the development of oil in the adjacent foothills, and will undoubtedly in time become bloated bondholders as a result of their speculations. Assessor Vegeley will be remembered by many as the gentleman who was seized with the buck ague on the occasion of his speechifying here during the last campaign. Mitt Phillips is distinguished by having been once in jail at Capistrano, on the occasion of the Republican high jinks there, when he was accused of high crimes and misdemeanors, and Billy Beckett has been on the down grade ever since he entered politics, with a possibility of his sinking lower before he gets to the Legislature. Superintendent Greeley contemplates entering the show business when he abandons public office, and Chris M'Neil has a cinch on building the courthouse. After spending an enjoyable time in town for a couple of hours, these oil speculators returned to their Made His Bed. On returning from the barn early one morning the old man found his wife in tears. "Wha'cher cryin about, Melissy?" he inquired. "'Nother—one—uv our darters—was stole las' night," she sobbed. "The redheaded un?" he asked laconically. "Yes—pore Mag—she was the best gal." "Bob Scuttles?" "UV course. Hasn't been no other feller waitin on her. Ain't you gain to pursue after 'em an arrest 'im?" "UV course not," he replied sternly. "I'm not under obligations to help Bob Scuttles out uv no difficulty. Let him go ahead and work out his sentence, same's I've been adoin fur the las' 40 year."—New York Truth. A "Knock-turn." When J. A. MacNeill Whistler lived in Chelsea, his peculiarities soon made him a familiar figure even among the bargemen, who got to know him as the artist of their beloved Thames. One afternoon, while sauntering along the embankment, Whistler was confronted by a man who had one eye most effectively blackened. The artist stopped and inquired, "What's the matter, my good fellow?" The man touched his hat. "Oh nothing, sir—merely a knock-turn in blue and green!"—San Francisco Wave. A Long Way Afterthought. "That was a pleasing afterthought of yours," remarked the old preacher who had listened to a sermon by one of his youngest brethren, "when you drew upon the analogies of nature to prove the immortality of the soul." "An afterthought?" said the younger clergyman in some perplexity. "Yes. You thought of it about 2,400 years after Socrates."—Chicago Tribune.

In Bavaria each family on Easter Sunday brings to the churchward fire a walnut branch, which, after being partially burned, "is carried home to be laid on the hearth during tempests as a protection against lightning." Story of a Slave. To be bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D. Williams of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: "My wife has been so helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully improved and able to do her own work." This supreme remedy for female diseases quickly cures nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, headache, backache, fainting and dizzy spells.
