MEETING OF TREE GROWERS. Representative Orchardists Assemble at the City Hall Monday Afternoon to Discuss the Scale Question. The council room at the City Hall was filled on Monday afternoon with a large number of representative orange growers from different parts of the county, the object being to discuss the method of petitioning the Board of Supervisors to adopt more radical measures for the destruction of scale pests. L. B. Benchley, one of the leading horticulturists of the Fullerton district, was elected to preside over the meeting, and there were present many other orchardists from the various tree-growing districts of the county. The meeting passed resolutions endorsing the work of the Horticultural Commission, and calling upon the Supervisors to appropriate money for the purchase of ten fumigating tents, to be used by the Commissioners in ridding trees of scale pests in orchards where, owing to the limited number of trees infected, the professional fumigators find it unprofitable to go. It was not the desire of the tree growers present at the meeting to interfere in any way with the work of the fumigators now operating in this county; on the contrary, it was their wish that all assistance be rendered them in their warfare against the scale. The tents which the meeting asked be furnished the Horticultural Commissioners are not to be used in any orchard which the professional fumigator may in a reasonable time reach. Nor will the charge for the operation of the Commissioners' tents be borne by the taxpayers of the county, but by the owners of the orchards fumigated, and at perhaps an advanced rate over that charged by the professional men. Thus in those outlying orchards where the professional fumigators find it impossible to go, the county tents will be put to work and a charge made by the owners for the work of fumigating, the cost of the cyanide and the use of the tents as well. In the improbable event of the owner refusing to pay, the bill will be presented to the county for payment and the prosecuting attorney notified to proceed against the owner of the property for the collection thereof. Mr. Fay, as president of the Anaheim Farmers' club, under the auspices of districts, two from the Tustin district, and two from the Placentia and Fullerton district, as well as others from the other tree-growing districts of the county, whose duty it shall be to appear before the Supervisors with a petition praying for this relief, signed by all the tree growers of the county, and urge the Supervisors to grant the relief petitioned for. Mr. Hamilton arose and said that he was very happy to hear of Mr. Potter's conversion. He spoke at some length upon the horticultural interests of Orange county, and explained the operation of ordinance No. 17, which the Commissioners are now endeavoring to get the Supervisors to re-enact. This ordinance was once in force in this county. It made it a misdemeanor to import infested trees into the county, and gave the commissioners plenary powers in the matter of scale destruction. He said that eight or nine years ago nurserymen at Pasadena shipped to Anaheim a consignment of 5000 two-year-old apple trees. The late Mr. Perry was then Commissioner for this district. He sent for the speaker to examine the trees, and on his arrival he found them covered with a mantle of woolly aphis that glistened like hoar frost in the sunshine of the early morning. "You should not have allowed those trees to have been brought upon your grounds," he said to the nurseryman. The Commissioners had no power to destroy these trees, and they were afterward sold to the tree growers of Orange county. He regards much of the ruin wrought to the apple orchards of Orange county to be due to the shipment of this one wagon-load of trees. He had dug up trees infested with woolly aphis and found at least a bushel of root knots upon them. Others had found barrels of root knots upon their roots. Wherever the tree is wounded the woolly aphis gathers there and sucks the sap. It is to the apple tree what the phylloxera is to the grape-vine. Owing to the fact that Anaheim was the first settlement to plant trees extensively in the county, and that in earlier years no Horticultural Commission had been created by law, many pests were introduced which have since given the tree growers abundant trouble. Mr. Huntington has as much work to do in his district as both of the when orchard really did not make it, and the work was in many cases perfectly done. A great hue and had been raised that the Commission were too persistent in piling up expired upon the orchardists when they was unnecessary. This might be again, but he did not think it would justify the growers in turning against the law. Mr. Chapman spoke at some leisure upon the superiority of Orange fruit. Three of four years ago oranges were hardly salable, no brokers would not handle them at Now, however, owing to the cleanliness of the groves and the fruit, our orchard sell up with the best produced in Southern California. Mr. Benchley arose and said that did not want to flatter the young referring to Mr. Chapman, but that was a fact that the oranges sold for highest price in the Eastern market last year and this year came from Chapman's orchard. Mr. Hamilton, speaking of Mr. Chapman's one objection to the law, that the Commissioners of this country desired to take no arbitrary advantage of the grower. They would willing give the man ten days' notice twenty, or thirty, or forty days' order to get him to clean his grove. But they must have the same power a health office to enforce the law. Law is more than fair—it is generally We must enforce it in order to nurserymen from getting trees in Mississippi valley, and which being delivered to our tree growers from sections infested with peach lows, peach rosette, pear blight, albeit and other bad diseases. Our orchardists should make an effort have a local nurseryman raise trees. Mr. Rafferty spoke of the River method of fumigating scaly trees, spectors go through the orchards every tree infested with scale is tagged then the fumigators come along fumigate it. Riverside began its against scale when its trees were their infancy. After a further discussion by many horticulturists present, Mr. Gill moved following resolution Resolved, That it is the sense of meeting that the Board of Supervice of Orange county should be petitioned to supply the Horticultural Commission with say, ten fumigating tents proper derricks, etc., necessary to erate the same. Resolved, That the action ofthe Horticultural Commission, in petitioningthe Board of Supervices to re-enforce County Ordinance No. 17, is here endorsed as being necessary to protectthe further introduction of scale pests. The resolution was seconded by Hunter and carried. Mr. Chapman favored procuring or 50 tents instead of 10, but he Thus in those outlying orchards where the professional fumigators find it impossible to go, the county tents will be put to work and a charge made the owners for the work of fumigating, the cost of the cyanide and the use of the tents as well. In the improbable event of the owner refusing to pay, the bill will be presented to the county for payment and the prosecuting attorney notified to proceed against the owner of the property for the collection thereof. Mr. Fay, as president of the Anaheim Farmers' club, under the auspices of which the meeting was held, stated to the assembled tree growers that the object of the meeting was to further consider some discussion had by the club upon the subject of scale extermination. It was almost impossible now to get the professional fumigators to attend to these small outlying orchards, and the club had determined that the proper way of getting at the subject was to get the horticulturists of the county together, and to ask the Supervisors to provide a limited number of fumigating tents for the treatment of these trees. The necessity for this becomes more apparent every day, because not only do we find the scale on fruit trees but on willows lining the ditches, and on several classes of weeds as well. This is occasioned by the dumping of culls and scaly fruit in the river. Unless the Horticultural Commission has some better support from the Supervisors these matters will become steadily worse. They have not now the power to order the destruction of these trees, although they are a serious menace to the citrus trees of the county. He had noticed in several cases where orchards were cleanly kept, occasionally one or two trees would become infested with scale. If tents could be procured so that these trees could be immediately treated the young scale would be dispatched; but orchardists have been compelled to wait three weeks or a month on the professional fumigator before the trees could be treated, and at that time the scale had grown so large that the fumigation was ineffective, and had to be done over again. If all the tree growers in the county would get together and devise some means of bringing pressure to bear upon the Supervisors to provide these tents, sporadic cases of scale infection could be kept in check; otherwise the scale would continue to spread. He thought the expense of getting ten tents and the necessary outfits would be about $600. Mr. Huntington spoke of the inability of the professional fumigators to handle these outlying trees. He cited the case of an orchard at Placentia, where two years ago complaint had been made of its being infested with black scale. He notified the owner to fumigate; the owner refused. He reported the case to the Supervisors, who notified the owner to fumigate his trees. He made a contract with a fumigator, who promised to go to the orchard in a week. He saw the fumigator a month afterward and asked him when he was going to begin. Owing to the fact that Anaheim was the first settlement to plant trees extensively in the county, and that in the earlier years no Horticultural Commission had been created by law, many pests were introduced which have since given the tree growers abundant trouble. Mr. Huntington has as much work to do in his district as both of the other Horticultural Commissioners of Orange county combined. Two or three years ago, he said, a Supervisor in one of the northern counties who regarded the Horticultural Commissioners in unfair light, he being prejudiced against them, concocted a scheme whereby he and others succeeded in getting the Legislature to repeal the law under which the Commissioners were operating. However, the officers of the State Board of Horticulture, hearing of the passage of this act, went at once before the Legislature and had no difficulty in securing the re-enactment of the old law, with the addition of a number of strong points embodied within it. But the law having been first repealed, the Supervisors of Orange county have held that Ordinance No. 17, which was based upon that law, has ever since ineffective, even though the Legislature almost immediately re-enacted. The Commissioners of Orange county have endeavored to get the Supervisors to re-enact Ordinance No. 17, but Supervisor Potter's influence has been strong enough to prevent it. At a meeting of the Supervisors the other day, during the absence of Mr. Potter, the board took up the matter of the re-enactment of this ordinance, and placed themselves on record as favoring its re-enactment. Mr. Huntington gave some figures on the sums expended by Riverside county in scale extermination recently. Riverside had expended $700 for new tents. It buys its cyanide by the ton, and gets it at a rate 3 cents per pound cheaper than we pay for it in Orange county. The Orange county tree growers used 58,000 pounds of cyanide last year. Here would have been a saving of $1750 had similar conditions prevailed in this county. He spoke of Judge Van Dyke's decision repealing the horticultural law. The repeal of this law cost Los Angeles county $7000. When the case was taken to the Supreme Court (Judge Van Dyke had been elected a member of the higher tribunal) she speaker feared for the outcome of the law. But when a decision was rendered Judge Van Dyke was found to be in a very small minority. The law was upheld and is now in effect. Mr. Hamilton said he was in Sacramento about that time, and he met Judge Van Dyke at the Statehouse between 11 and 12 o'clock one night and gave him a scoring. The world is full of fruit pests, he said. New pests are originating in the worse infected neighborhoods—how their origin he could not tell—and many horticulturists present, Mr. Gill movedthe following resolution Resolved, That it is the sense of meeting that the Board of Supervice of Orange county should be petitioned to supply the Horticultural Commission with, say, ten fumigating tents proper derricks, etc., necessary to erate the same. Resolved, That the action of the Horticultural Commission, in petitioning the Board of Supervisors to re-County Ordinance No. 17, is hereby endorsed as being necessary to prepare further introduction of scale plan The resolution was seconded by Hunter and carried. Mr. Chapman favored procuring or 50 tents instead of 10, but he making determined not to ask too much The Board of Supervisors. Mr. Sherwood said it should be derstood that money appropriated by the Supervisors for the fumigators would not be an outright objection—far from it. The growers orchards were treated by it would require to pay, not only forthe fumigation of their groves, but for that ofthe tents as well. In this manner he entire outfit ought to pay for it in a short time. Mr. Hamilton said thatthe growers did not want to antagonize professional fumigators. We seven of them inthe county,and are all doing good work.

He reported the case to the Supervisors, who notified the owner to fumigate his trees. He made a contract with a fumigator, who promised to go to the orchard in a week. He saw the fumigator a month afterward and asked him when he was going to begin. "I do not know," he replied, "I have more work ahead of me than I can do in two months." Meantime the scale was spreading, but the commissioners had no facilities for destroying them. Sometime late in the fall the orchard was fumigated. "The law says the Horticultural Commissioners shall do this fumigating, but they have no facilities for doing this work, and the appropriation of $600 would furnish an outfit with which this matter could be taken in hand." Mr. Rafferty, the Commissioner of the Tustin district, was of the impression that in the case cited by Mr. Huntington, the law was explicit in giving the Commissioners the power to eradicate the scale. He thought the Commissioners had the power to purchase tents and fumigate the trees and charge the expense to the man who owned them—tents, cyanide, and everything else. Mr. Cargill said that at the last meeting of the Farmers' club, Mr. Hamilton had been quite severe in his strictures upon Supervisor Potter, saying that it had been his experience that Potter was the hardest man to deal with when it came to talking about scale eradication that ever sat on the Board of Supervisors of Orange county. Mr. Cargill said that Supervisor Potter had been over to his house the other day and informed him that Mr. Hamilton was entirely mistaken in his views concerning his attitude toward the subject in discussion. Mr. Potter said at that time that if the horticulturists would draw up a petition asking for relief, and present it to the Supervisors, he would do his utmost to have favorable action taken upon it. Therefore the speaker suggested that a committee be appointed, two members from the Orange taken to the Supreme Court (Judge Van Dyke had been elected a member of the higher tribunal) the speaker feared for the outcome of the law. But when a decision was rendered Judge Van Dyke was found to be in a very small minority. The law was upheld and is now in effect. Mr. Hamilton said he was in Sacramento about that time, and he met Judge Van Dyke at the Statehouse between 11 and 12 o'clock one night and gave him a scoring. The world is full of fruit pests, he said. New pests are originating in the worse infected neighborhoods—how they originate he could not tell; and other pests threaten us from many States of the Union, from Florida, the islands of the sea, Australia and Japan. Whoever sets about to raise fruit will have to keep his eyes open to the fact that it is only by constant vigilance that this vast army of pests can be kept without our borders. If we had only horticultural commissioners in the beginning much of our trouble would have been avoided. Once an orchard is clean it is easy to keep it clean. The real truth about many growers is that they are, for one reason or another, negligent. Some days ago, upon going through the packing house at Orange, he found oranges covered with purple scale; he found out where they came from, and went to the man and told him he had purple scale in his orchard. The man denied it, but the Commissioner told him he was there in the orchard to look for it. He spent one entire afternoon going over five acres. He found nothing, but told the orchardist he would return the next day. He went to the packing house and found that it was on the seedling oranges of the orchard that the purple scale had lodged, this made it comparatively easy to find the scale. He went to the orchard next day, and found a third of all the seedling trees badly infested with purple scale. As he passed this place the other day he saw a large sign erected reading, "This beautiful place for sale." The purple scale did that. The owner desired to turn it over to some tenderfoot; just as soon as he found it badly infested with purple scale he wanted to sell, Mr. Chapman said that while he heartily agreed with the law repealed by Judge Van Dyke, and afterwards re-affirmed by the Supreme Court, yet he desired to point out one or two objections to it which, however, he thought, were not serious enough to cause any great opposition to the law. For instance, in Los Angeles the Commissioners had arbitrary power. They were privileged to go into an orchard and incur large expense for fumigation Maccabees. Last Thursday night at I.O.Hall the Santa Ana degree team plified the work of this fraternal in a beautiful and instructive manner. Several new candidates were initiiated and the outlook for Anaheim Tenure 9, to become one of the leading final orders here is bright and assured. The Ladies of the Maccabees increased Santa Ana Hive last Tuesday at the reception given Miss Bliss West, supreme record keeper, who on a visit to Southern California were charmed with the brilliant attractive reception, and a plea time was enjoyed. Refreshments served in a manner which distracted the ability of the Santa Ladies of the Maccabees to make visitors feel at home.

Nebelung Asks for a Recount of Votes Which the City Trustees, After Deliberating 24 Hours, Deny. The City Trustees met on Monday evening for the purpose of canvassing the returns of the votes cast at the recent municipal election. All members of the board were present, viz: Trustees Rust, Dickel, Helmsen, Schwenckert and Schneider. Clerk Nebelung brought from the vault three large envelopes containing the tally lists, ballots and rejected ballots, as well as the other election paraphernalia. The envelope containing the tally list was produced, when it was seen that the wax seal was broken. Mr. Merritt, the newly elected City Clerk, who occupied a seat at one end of the council-room, arose when he saw that the seal was broken and walked over to the council table and eyed it with a scrutinizing glance. Clerk Nebelung observed that while the wax was apparently broken the strings binding the ends-together, and which were also waxed, remained unbroken. He said that he could seal up the package again tonight and that by tomorrow morning, on account of the action of the weather, it would be broken again. He said that the election returns had been delivered to him by the election board the evening of the election and had been placed in the vault, and that no one had touched them since that time. Trustee Schneider untied the cord and drew forth the tally sheet. Trustee Dickel took it and read the following returns. The votes in the first column are as returned by the election board. Those in the second column are the corrected figures, the election board having given each of the candidates five votes too many. Two hundred and seventy-nine votes were cast: FOR CITY TRUSTEE. J. J. Schneider.....147 142 Peter Weisel Jr.....165 160 L.E.Miller.....108 103 John Eymann.....82 77 FOR CITY CLERK. E.B.Merritt.....105 100 Max Nebelitt.....104 99 J.S.Gardiner.....72 67 FOR CITY MARSHAL.

H.Cahen.....185 180 City Hall on Tuesday evening, when all members of the Trustees were present, except Mr.Dickel, who had been called to Los Angeles on a business engagement. Attorney Chynoweth was present, he having been telegraphed to, to come down and straighten out the tangle in the count for City Clerk. On calling the meeting to order shortly after 8 o'clock, Chairman Rust stated the purpose of the meeting to be the canvass of the vote for that office. Mr.Nebelung had asked for a recount. He requested Mr Chynoweth to give the board an opinion upon the subject. Mr Chynoweth replied that, after a careful examination of the statutory provisions governing such cases, he was of opinion The City Trustees had no right to recount the ballots. If Nebelung desired to contest the election, proper mode of doing so was by bringing an action in the Superior Court. Trustee Helmsen thereupon moved that name of E.B.Merritt be added to the list of candidates declared at Monday evening's meeting to be elected; that E.B.Merritt, having received the highest number of votes cast for the office of City Clerk at the municipal election, be declared elected to the office of City Clerk. The motion was seconded by Trustee Schwenckert and carried. The preparation of the certificates of election for the various newly elected officers followed, together with their swearing into office. The ceremony occupied half an hour. The gentlemen sworn in were: Peter Weisel Jr., and J.J.Scheider, City Trustees; N.F.Steadman, City Marshal; E.B.Merritt, City Clerk. The swearing in was performed by Clerk Nebelung. When he handed Merritt his certificate of election he said to that gentleman: "I congratulate you." However, he forgot to affix the seal. His attention being called to this omission by Trustee Helmsen, the seal was speedily attached to the certificate, and a change had been made in the office of City Clerk. The reading of the minutes of the two last meetings followed. Many points in them remained to be written up; considerable time was taken while Nebelung went over the minutes, putting in the votes the candidates received here completing a sentence there, and adding to the minutes to make them conform to the law.

His communication asked for a recount of the votes for the office of City Clerk, owing to the closeness of the vote. He said that mistakes had entered into the figures of the tally lists. In fact, such glaring mistakes had been made, he said, that he thought other errors had been made in the counting of the ballots. In justice to himself as well as to Mr. Merritt, he said he wanted to know if he (Nebelung) was elected; or, if Merritt was elected, he wanted to know that also. He thought it was an unfortunate thing that Merritt should have beaten him by one vote. He wished that Merritt had beaten him by ten votes or even fifteen votes. A single vote cast for Nebelung and counted for Merritt would have given him a majority of one. A single vote cast for him and counted for Gardiner would have made a tie vote for him and Merritt, and thus made necessary another election. On the whole, therefore, the vote having been so close he asked in justice to himself that a recount be ordered. Trustee Rust was of opinion that the board had no right to open the sealed envelopes containing the ballots cast at the election. In the case of a contest that would come under the province of a superior court. Trustee Helmsen was of the same opinion. He lit a cigarette and dictated the following resolution: Resolved, That the envelope from which we have taken the various returns of the election board be re-sealed, and after having examined the contents of the same, we approve the election of J. J. Schneider and Peter Weisel, jr. for trustees; H. Cahen for treasurer, and N. F. Steadman for marshal, and that we defer action upon the election of city clerk on account of the contest filed by M. Nebelung, present incumbent. The resolution was seconded by Trustee Dickel. Mr. Merritt here arose and demanded his certificate of election as City Clerk. He said: "After seeing the envelope delivered to you with the seal broken, I demand that you deliver my certificate of election." Trustee Helmsen said that although the seal was apparently broken, the strings were not broken. Clerk Nebelung said the ballots had been carefully stored away after the election and that no one had touched seventy-nine votes were cast: FOR CITY TRUSTEE. J. J.

On the whole, therefore, the vote having been so close he asked in justice to himself that a recount be ordered. Trustee Rust was of opinion that the board had no right to open the sealed envelopes containing the ballots cast at the election. In the case of a contest that would come under the province of a superior court. Trustee Helmsen was of the same opinion. He lit a cigarette and dictated the following resolution: Resolved, That the envelope from which we have taken the various returns of the election board be re-sealed, and after having examined the contents of the same, we approve the election of J. J. Schneider and Peter Weisel, jr. for trustees; H. Cahen for treasurer, and N. F. Steadman for marshal, and that we defer action upon the election of city clerk on account of the contest filed by M. Nebelung, present incumbent. The resolution was seconded by Trustee Dickel. Mr. Merritt here arose and demanded his certificate of election as City Clerk. He said: "After seeing the envelope delivered to you with the seal broken, I demand that you deliver my certificate of election." Trustee Helmsen said that although the seal was apparently broken, the strings were not broken. Clerk Nebelung said the ballots had been carefully stored away after the election and that no one had touched seventy-nine votes were cast: FOR CITY TRUSTEE. J. J. Schneider...147 142 Peter Weisel, Jr...165 160 L. E. Miller...108 103 John Eymann...82 77 FOR CITY CLERK. E. B. Merritt...105 100 Max Nebelung...104 99 J. S. Gardiner...72 67 FOR CITY MARSHAL. N. F. Steadman...168 163 R. C. Mills...112 107 FOR CITY TREASURER. H. Cahen...185 180 At this point, and before the announcement of the result, Clerk Nebelung said that he desired to direct the attention of the board to a communication which he wished to submit to them. His communication asked for a recount of the votes for the office of City Clerk, owing to the closeness of the vote. He said that mistakes had entered into the figures of the tally lists. In fact, such glaring mistakes had been made, he said, that he thought other errors had been made in the counting of the ballots. In justice to himself as well as to Mr. Merritt, he said he wanted to know if he (Nebelung) was elected; or, if Merritt was elected, he wanted to know that also. He thought it was an fortunate thing that Merritt should have beaten him by one vote. He wished that Merritt had beaten him by ten votes or even fifteen votes. A single vote cast for Nebelung and counted for Merritta would have given him a majority of one. A single vote cast for him and counted for Gardiner would have made a tie vote for him and Merritta, and thus made necessary another election. On the whole, therefore, the vote having been so close he asked in justice to himself that a recount be ordered. Trustee Rust was of opinion that the board had no right to open the sealed envelopes containing the ballots cast at the election. In the case of a contest that would come under the province of a superior court. Trustee Helmsen was of the same opinion.

The Second ActThe second act in the comedy, "Tis Hard to Let Go," was played at the Steadman Retaliates. When the Singing Section of the Turnverein serenaded Marshal-elect Steadman at his residence, Tuesday evening of last week, that official arose after the singing of the first song, and apparently in some perplexity as to what to say or do, announced that the singers had caught him "without a thing in the house." The jug was empty, he said, he had no cigars, and to make matters worse, Mrs. Steadman had no coffee in the house. While this announcement caused consternation to at least one member of the party, the singers quietly replied they came not for refreshments, but to tender their congratulations to the newly elected officer. Several songs were rendered in clever manner, and Prof. Thomas' piano solo was probably the best piece of music he ever played in Anaheim—and that's saying a good deal. Mr. Steadman resolved then and there to get even, and on Tuesday evening, while the Singing Section was at practice in Turner hall, he appeared with a load of refreshments to the great surprise of all. There was a liberal quantity of San Diego Prima to wash it down, and the edibles were made to disappear in the usual artistic fashion. The evening was very pleasantly spent and the health of the Marshal was pledged in bumpers of the beverage which cheers but does not irritate—if you don't get too much. The Singing Section sang "He's a Jolly Good Fellow," at the conclusion of which all present were invited to attend an informal banquet, where a feast of goods things was provided for the inner man. Supervisor Potter was present as an invited guest, among many others, and in his honor the Singing Section rendered an appropriate song. Mr. Potter, who is a jolly good fellow himself, bowed his acknowledgments, and said he was always pleased to be around where the Anaheim Turners were. The singers sang into a phonograph under the leadership of Prof. Thomas, the song being immediately reproduced by the machine amid shouts of laughter. Capt. Schumacher sang into the phonograph a bass solo, which was reproduced with excellent effect. Wm. Freise also sang into the phonograph, the song being reproduced perfectly. The banquet spread was said to be one of the finest ever set in the hall, and full justice was done to the delicacies. It was late before the party dispersed to their homes, all voting Mr. Steadman a jolly good fellow and a first-class citizen. T. A. Winbigler, of the M.A., taking establishment of S.S.Drove through town at 3:45 o'clock afternoon with a hearse contending body of O.F. Johnson, aged who breathed his last at W.W.'s preceding day.

She has been in precarious health for six months, and was advised to try a change of climate. Mr. Falder will return to California later. He and his family left Los Angeles for the Northwest in August, 1896, for the benefit of his health, which has improved in that climate.

Mr. Chynoweth returned yesterday to his home. He is preparing to ask for a new trial in the case of the City versus Mrs. Langenberger, which was last week decided in favor of that lady, and falling to secure a new trial, will, according to his contract with the City Trustees, carry the case up to the Supreme Court, to have the matter of the ownership of the property in question settled by the higher court.

Bourland, who formerly ran a paper there, as he did also in this city, is thinking of re-locating at that place. When he sold out he signed a contract not to engage in the newspaper business there for five years, but is now endeavoring to get a modification of the terms of the contract, and if successful will probably electrify the village by the sea with another paper.
