The Santa Fe Oil Wells. Continued from First page. lins, an experienced mechanic. John Jori is the pumper in charge. The ditch which runs through the ranch at this point is tapped by an aperture flowing ten inches of water into a cistern, from which it is pumped. Some misconception relative to the quantity of water taken from the ditch some time ago existed, but the quantity is really quite insignificant compared to the great volume of water in the ditch. The canal carries in the neighborhood of 1200 inches, from which the miniature stream flowing into the cistern makes no perceptible diminution. The oil people pay very handsomely for this water, for without it operations in the oil fields would have to cease. Two cisterns have been constructed, the water being conducted into the second when the first is filled to its capacity. Then while the pump takes water from the first, the ten-inch stream is sufficient not only to keep the pump going but to flow into the second, which is sunk into the ground a distance of twenty feet. A third cistern or reservoir is now being excavated, with a view to storing water, the water company having decided to diminish the supply delivered from ten inches to six. Thus, when the tanks at the oil wells are filled, the water from the ditch will be permitted to flow into the line of three reservoirs. The pump works only in daytime, and at present, therefore, the oil people acquire only half of the supply contracted for, not having tank room at the wells to take care of a constant ten-inch flow. From the pumping station to the reservoir back of the Santa Fe office at the wells the distance is two and one-half miles. The altitude of the reservoir above the ditch is 365 feet. Once a month a carload of oil is brought down from the wells to operate the pumps. Thus, one cannot operate without the other. The pumper must have oil to lift the water from the ditch: the driller must have water to seek out the oil. The water is pumped into a reservoir and conducted thence through four-inch pipes to tanks supplying the Santa Fe, Loftus and other oil companies. Construction. The four barbette ironclads of 6400 tons are about thirty-six years old and have only 54-inch iron armor on their sides. Even the heaviest armored vessel is easily penetrated by the modern six-inch rifle at range of 2000 yards. Of the alleged fleet of unarmored vessels five are building at Turkish dockyards and the remainder, comprising seven various types, are comparatively new vessels, but in the hands of the Turkish naval administration have long since become entirely useless. During the recent war between Turkey and Greece the Turkish admiral dared not leave the Dardenelles to meet three small Grecian war vessels. The Turkish navy has not been improved since then. Citrus Fruits in California. Continued from First page. It has since developed into. All sorts of seeds were planted, and these were allowed to grow and bear when and how they would. But as the demand for better varieties of fruit increased efforts at improvement were made, and better stock was sought. The discovery of the fact that citrus fruits could be produced successfully and profitably, gave an impetus to the growth of a most important industry in our State, and especially in the southern counties, which is almost unprecedented in the history of our Union. California is essentially devoted to specialties, and while each of the numerous industries like the prune, raisin, peach, walnut, almond, etc., is pursued in the different sections, and while each of these industries is followed to a greater or less extent in the surrounding counties, so Southern California became the center of the citrus industry. Land which had been regarded as worthless rapidly advanced in value as the industry grew, and as its possibilities began to dawn upon the knowledge of the grower, its value continued to increase. Cities, towns and villages sprang up, whose birth, existence and future depended upon the condition of the orange market. Extensive systems of irrigation were developed, and a large extent of territory which had at the commencement of this growth been regarded as a desert, was converted into a vast orchard, filled with pleasant homes and a prosperous Salary St a Year.

Losses at Gettysburg Senator Shoup and General Hunton were swapping war stories other day, and the talk ran upon losses in a single battle. "My regiment," said General Ton, "had been reduced from its complement to 200 men when it patted in Pickett's charge at G Burg. How many men of that ment do you think came out of charge alive?" Senator Shoup could not guess. "Only ten," said General Hunt.

It did to give me new strength and good taste than anything I could take." From the pumping station to the reservoir back of the Santa Fe office at the wells the distance is two and one-half miles. The altitude of the reservoir above the ditch is 365 feet. Once a month a carload of oil is brought down from the wells to operate the pumps. Thus, one cannot operate without the other. The pumper must have oil to lift the water from the ditch: the driller must have water to seek out the oil. The water is pumped into a reservoir and conducted thence through four-inch pipes to tanks supplying the Santa Fe, Loftus and other oil companies. A central power-house, operated by steam from a battery of two boilers fed with oil from the wells, supplies power for pumping purposes. Long lines of wire rope extend from the power-house to the various derricks, and oil is raised into the tanks at their sides. In some cases the production is quite large. From these tanks the oil is run into settling tanks, where after 24 hours it is filled into cars and shipped out. The industry is yet in its infancy, and where there are now wells by the dozen there will probably in the coming time be wells by the hundred. The investments in the oil territory aggregate hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the industry is only in its infancy. The Santa Fe Railroad company used to pay $8000 per month for coal. Now it uses oil which is produced at perhaps 25 per cent of the cost of coal, and thereby effects a great saving in its yearly bills for fuel. Moreover, the money expended for coal was all sent out of the State; that for oil is kept here. The increment is put into new wells. The oil industry is one of the causes of the great amount of money in Southern California banks. It is given out that the banks in Southern California have more money in their vaults than ever before. Oil is responsible for a large portion of this. While there is money in legitimate oil development, one should not think of embarking in an enterprise without being equipped with an abundance of wherewithal. Thus we hear of one well boring in Orange county which is down 400 feet, one of the stockholders of which is said to have observed that if oil is not struck in the next 100 feet, he will drop out. Capital sufficient to prospect 2000 feet, or even 3000 feet, should be at hand; otherwise the chap anxious to get rich quickly had better stay out of the business. Many of the so-called oil companies now selling stock on the market are absolutely worthless. We notice one of these concerns advertising one way in Los Angeles county, and another way in Orange county. In the former county it advertises land in Silverado canyon as being in the "Fullerton field." Silverado canyon is perhaps 30 miles from the wells in Soquel canyon, and 35 miles from Brea canyon. Investors had best investigate all these as well as other matters before purchasing. At Bed Time I take a pleasant drink, the next morning I feel bright and my complexion is better. My doctor says it acts gently on the stomach, liver and kidneys, and forms a center of the citrus industry. Land which had been regarded as worthless rapidly advanced in value as the industry grew, and as its possibilities began to dawn upon the knowledge of the grower, its value continued to increase. Cities, towns and villages sprang up, whose birth existence and future depended upon the condition of the orange market. Extensive systems of irrigation were developed, and a large extent of territory which had at the commencement of this growth been regarded as a desert, was converted into a vast orchard, filled with pleasant homes and a prosperous population. While orange trees were among the earliest introduced into our State, having been brought here by the Mission Fathers, it may be said that orange culture is of very modern origin, and the industry has assumed commercial importance only since 1880. The most extensive orange orchard of early planting was at the San Gabriel mission, in Los Angeles county, supposed to have been set out in 1804 by one "Father" Thomas Sanches. The first orange orchard of any note, outside of the missions, although small and intended for home use, was planted by Louis Vignes at Los Angeles in 1834. That same year Manuel Requena also planted a small orchard. Other plantings soon followed, the most notable and important of which was that of the late William Wolfskill, at Los Angeles, consisting of two acres set out in 1841, and this was probably the first orange orchard planted in the State with a view to profit. In 1853 the Matthew Keller orchard, opposite the Wolfskill orchard, was planted. Another orchard was planted north of the San Gabriel mission, now known as the Wilson orchard. These plantings did not immediately succeed each other, but a considerable period elapsed from the date of the setting out of the mission orchard, and even after the success of this latter orchard had been assured other plantings were slow and not extensive. In 1857 a few trees were planted at old San Bernardino by L. Van Leuyen from seed grown by him. He also planted the same year forty-five trees obtained from Los Angeles. About two hundred were planted at Craftton by Myron H. Crafts, about 1865. The first seeds were planted at Riverside in 1870, and the first trees in orchard, grown from these seeds, in 1872 and 1873. In 1869 Frank A. Kimball planted some orange and lemon trees at National City, San Diego county. At that time there were two old orange trees growing in El Cajon valley. But little progress was made in orange culture from 1857 until 1862, at which date there were but 25,000 trees in the entire state, and two-thirds of these were in the Wolfskill orchard. From this date the planting of orange trees increased, but not with any great rapidity until 1873, when the first impetus was given to the industry. Southern California was out of the reach of railroad transportation. Fruit for the market was hauled to Los Angeles in wagons and from there transferred to rail and steamer. This process was slow and expensive, and but a limited area, and that not the best land for the purpose could be cultivated. The completion of the Southern Pacific line, however, gave superior transportation facilities, and at the same time opened a new and better fruit region. Riverside had already started, having been settled in 1869, and a considerable area charge alive?" Senator Shoup could not guess. "Only ten," said General Hunt.

Alexander Craw, quarantine officer for the State Board of Horticulture, has seized a consignment of trees from China bound for Southern California, which were badly infested with Paratoria zizphus, a small black armored scale which is considered among the most dangerous of citrus fruit-tree pests. It originated in China, but has already been introduced into Europe and some of the small orchards of the Hawaiian Islands. The seizure was made in San Francisco. Schaefer's Store Continued. C. H.

As a naval power Turkey stands at the bottom of the list, notwithstanding the respectable number of ships which constitute its navy on paper. All the armored ships are obsolete and the unarmored vessels are in a state of derepitude from want of ordinary care. There are seven central-battery ships ranging from 9120 tons down to 2050 tons, built between 1864 and 1874; their armor is ordinary iron, of which the largest has twelve inches, the others 6 to 9 inches. Two of these, the Mesodieh of 9120 tons and the Assar-i-Teopik are now in a shipyard in Italy under reconnaissance advertising one way in Los Angeles county, and another way in Orange county. In the former county it advertises land in Silverado canyon as being in the "Fullerton field." Silverado canyon is perhaps 30 miles from the wells in Soquel canyon, and 35 miles from Brea canyon.

It has been repeatedly said here that government by the United States in these islands will be a despotism. Such a belief shows a singular ignorance or misapprehension of the constitutional limitations upon our powers and the spirit of our institutions. While the Constitution does not extend over the Territories of its own force and without legislation, its prohibitions are binding upon Congress. In those prohibitions, which are also privileges enjoyed by the people wherever our jurisdiction extends, is a complete charter of rights which Congress can neither limit nor impair. All personal privileges and immunities, such as religious freedom, property rights, freedom of speech and of the press, and equality before the law, must prevail wherever our flag floats. But outside of the Constitution and laws is an unwritten law created by the genius of the institutions of the paramount power and controlling its acts and officials in all colonial governments. We know from Cicero's oration that even a Roman proconsul was subject to this idea. England received her lesson in the danger of violating this spirit when she lost her American colonies by our successful revolution, and she has today the greatest and most loyal colonial empire the world has ever known, by granting such measures of self-government as each colony demonstrates its ability to maintain. Electricity and steam have annihilated time and distance. The Philippines are nearer Washington by months than New Orleans was in Jefferson's administration. The flag carries with it everywhere the genius and spirit of American liberty and law. No American governor, council or judiciary would be tyrants if they could, and could not be if they would. An insult or a blow at civil or religious liberty by an American administration in far-off Luzon would be finished under the ocean and across the land. The people would rise in hot indignation, demanding justice and punishment, which the President and Congress would swift to grant and inflict. with her colonies than other and competing countries, yet she furnishes 45 per cent of their imports, and if analyzed so as to select only the articles she produces, the proportion would be greater. The rapid development of wants and ability to gratify them created by civilization and stable government will enormously increase the consumption and purchasing power of the inhabitants of our island possessions, and by the same law close commercial relations will follow political unity. America and Europe are the beneficiaries and victims of the marvelous development of the nineteenth century. Electricity, steam and invention have stimulated production beyond living limits, unless new markets can be discovered. The great migrations of ancient and modern times appear insignificant when compared with the exodus from Europe in last 75 years. The figures reach the enormous volume of 17,000,000 of human beings whose exile from home and country has been mainly enforced by congestion from over-production and revolution in employments by inventions and development in the arts and industries. Our fertile lands have attracted most of them, but the lands are practically exhausted, and now the world's problem of markets for the surplus of farms and factories, or low wages, want of employment, idleness and want is near our own doors. We must remember the startling fact that during the twentieth century our population will grow to 300,000,000. The markets for the products of our farms and factories accessible by the Atlantic ocean will soon be filled. But across the Pacific are limitless opportunities. Within a distance from Manila not much greater than Havana from New York live 900,000,000 of people, purchasing now annually from all nations, of the things which we produce, to the sum of a thousand million dollars, of which we furnish 5 per cent. And yet with our Pacific coast and its enterprising people the opening of the canal across the Isthmus and an American merchant marine that 5 per cent should be 50. With railroads opening up these countries and civilization stimulating their people, the possible increase in their trade dazzles the imagination. To relieve home congestion, starvation and revolution, England, Germany and France are increasing their armies, enlarging their fleets and either waging war or on the eve of great conflicts while partitioning Africa, threatening China, seizing Asiatic principalities and madly building railroads across the continents of Asia and Africa. By victorious war and triumphant diplomacy we are in our own territory within easy reach, at Manila, of China, Siam, Korea, Annam, the East Indies and Japan. Without war or entangling alliances we will have Back from Elsinore. Fritz Ruhman has returned two weeks' visit to Elsinore where he went to take the war rheumatism in the knee.

The fears daily expressed by Senators of disastrous consequences to ourselves from the productions and industries of these islands have no justification in the long experience of other nations. Great Britain has found her best markets in her colonies, and no invasion of her industries from them. The same is true of the crowded, highly organized and sensitive industrial interests of Holland.

The people would rise in hot indignation, demanding justice and punishment, which the President and Congress would be swift to grant and inflict. All other nations have been familiar through the ages with the power of sovereignty. Their people have gradually won individual rights from the throne, but without impairing in its national relations this power. Louis XIV said, "I am the State." Since then France has been governed by Robespiere and the revolutionary committee, by emperor, king, president, emperor again, and president and assembly, but the sovereign powers of the nation were unimpaired. We have developed the other way. Slowly and reluctantly we have surrendered individual rights that we might be a nation. We have been a hundred years trying to understand that a government of the people has all the strength, perpetuity and powers of sovereignty, but with an ever-present responsibility to the people. The great debate between those who affirmed and those who denied that we are a nation continued long after Webster's unanswerable argument in the Senate and Chief Justice Marshall's imposing decision from the bench. When submitted to the arbitration of the sword, the sacrifice of a million noble lives on one side and the other opened the minds of friends and foes to a broader and more elevated understanding of the indissoluble unity, the vast and expansive possibilities, the creative and beneficent spirit, and the mighty and glorious power of the United States.

Without war or entangling alliances we will have equal rights with other nations to the ports of the Orient, with all that it means for the demonstrated superiority of our manufactures and the surplus harvests of our farms. This is not a sordid view, nor can any right apprehension of our Philippine policy or our relations to our island colonies be sordid or purely commercial. Commerce and civilization always go together. In spite of ourselves we have colonial possessions. We have no policy to declare, no glittering resolutions or proclamations to make and in the future to embarrass us. We will stamp out the insurrection and establish a stable government. We will organize local government. We will constitute courts. We will insure with the whole power of the United States security for life and property, freedom of religion and the equal and just administration of the law. The kindergarten of liberty, under competent instructors, rapidly develops its pupils for larger responsibilities for citizenship, respect for law, for judicial duties and for a constantly increasing share in their local and general assemblies. One year of rule by the United States in Cuba is a convincing object lesson. Brigands have become farmers, and revolutionists conservative citizens. Order has taken place of anarchy, and law of license. The Cubans are developing their industries and rapidly acquiring habits of self-government. So the lifting of the people of the Philippines to the comprehension and practice of orderly industry, respect for individual rights, confidence and then participation in government will add enormously to their happiness and reciprocally to the strength, prosperity and power of our country.
