The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL. Editor and Proprietor. THURSDAY... JULY 5, 1900. THE STATE SENATORSHIP One of the duties of the Republicans of the Thirty-ninth Senatorial District will be the nomination, at the State convention which meets at Santa Cruz August 28th, of a candidate to succeed Senator T. J. Jones of this district. By common consent the nomination goes to Riverside county, and we believe the Republicans of Orange county are prepared to so cast their ballots at the convention. San Bernardino having had the Senator, in the person of Senator Seymour, during the term preceding that of Senator Jones of this county, the rotative method of selecting this important official now brings the honor to Riverside county. It is a work of supererogation to say that in the carrying out of this policy the Republicans of Orange county will cordially co-operate. It is a pleasant task to say a good word for the Riverside Republicans. If ever they give a pledge to their party associates in the other counties of the district, they adhere to it with scrupulous exactitude. At the Newport convention, four years ago, during the wrangle between the factions of the party in this county relative to the Senatorship, the honor of having the Senator would have been lost to us but for the sturdy honesty of these Riverside folk. When ballot after ballot had been taken, and no result achieved by the dissentient political forces of this county, which by tacit consent was to have the honor of naming that official, the nomination could have been had by a gentleman in the Riverside delegation for the asking; nay, it was urged upon him by members of the San Bernardino delegation as the only means of bringing and seven years of the history of the nation the excess has been only $383,028,497. When it is considered that the first-named sum represents the accumulations of the people for the past four years, some idea may be gained of the tremendous blessings which have been conferred upon the country by the incumbency of President McKinley. Not only this, but, as the platform says, the vast quantity of merchandise represented by these figures has been paid for in gold coin, and the excess of wealth they have brought has raised our per capita circulation of currency to the highest point ever known in the history of the nation. Numberless columns devoted to discussing "national issues" would all be idle beside this magnificent exhibit. Here we have the results of expansion, conservatism and protection. The figures explain the overwhelming sentiment which prevades the country in favor of the re-election of McKinley. RURAL MAIL DELIVERY. Every resident in the section of country embraced in the proposed rural mail delivery district should attach his signature to the petitions now in circulation asking the formation of the district. The district will go as far west as Centralia, and requests have come in from as far as Artesia to be included in the district. Northward the district will run as far as the section line running east and west at Brookshurst, and southward to Katella, and south along the Garden Grove road. Many residents at Clair have already signed the list, and people at West Anaheim have signed by the dozens. Only a cursory canvass of the district has been made to the end that merely a sufficient number of signatures might be secured to justify the formation of the district. As this will be read, more than a sufficient number will have been secured, and probably two deliveries will be made daily at some future time. But government would not feel that system met with approval if only man in a dozen were served. It states that at least one hundred illies must be served with mail over a route extending 20 miles. Let us not only have hundred subscribers but three hundred, and we may in the near future be able to employ two carriers form two districts. Blanks from the Postoffice department will be circulated for signatures for a few days yet, and all students of the district who have no signed should do so without delay. If the canvassers cannot be named left at this office will be added to the list and forwarded to Washington. While upon this subject might be useful to state that a motion circulated by Mr. Mercereau been sent on to Washington as for the establishment of a post office at West Anaheim, to be located somewhere in his store. relative to the Senatorship, the honor of having the Senator would have been lost to us but for the sturdy honesty of these Riverside folk. When ballot after ballot had been taken, and no result achieved by the dissentient political forces of this county, which by tacit consent was to have the honor of naming that official, the nomination could have been had by a gentleman in the Riverside delegation for the asking; nay, it was urged upon him by members of the San Bernardino delegation as the only means of bringing the fight to an end. We do not blame San Bernardino for this. The unseemly fight among the Republicans of this county was enough to try the patience of a saint. But that Orange county was not deprived of naming the Senator may be marked up to the credit of the Riverside delegation. While upon this question of political honor, can the Republicans of Orange county say they have acted honorably with the Riversiders at all times and all places? Hardly. Yet they have gone on, nothing loth, rolling up the big majorities which have made possible the election of the ticket. It is meet and proper for us, at this time, to make recompense for the rocks we have shied at Riverside county by at least acting as honorably by them as they have acted toward us. Let our delegation to the Senatorial convention be instructed to support the candidate put forth by Riverside county—indeed, it is entirely probable there will be but a single nominee before the convention. Let us act as fairly by them as they did with us at Newport. The Senator to be elected this Fall will decide which county Orange shall henceforth affiliate with in the new Senatorial district to be created by the next Legislature. Certainly, we want to be in a district with Riverside. Our interests are similar, and no two counties in the State are growing so rapidly as these two. The population of Orange county is 26,000, basing the figures upon the recent school census; that of Riverside is 22,000. San Bernardino, it might be added, has 31,000, and San Diego 34,000. Before the next census Orange county will have overhauled both these counties, and have the greatest population in Southern California outside of our big neighbor to the north. A Senatorial district composed of Orange and Riverside counties would be an ideal district. We should then be free from the contaminating influence of the unwholesome Steve Kelley push of Sciperraigopolis and Berdoon—none of that for us. Seriously, there is nothing more important now before the Republicans of run as far as the section line running east and west at Brookshurst, and southward to Katella, and south along the Garden Grove road. Many residents at Clair have already signed the list, and people at West Anaheim have signed by the dozens. Only a cursory canvass of the district has been made to the end that merely a sufficient number of signatures might be secured to justify the formation of the district. As this will be read, more than a sufficient number will have been secured, and the petition will be forwarded to Washington as soon as a map of the district can be made. In all probability a complete canvass will result in securing two hundred and maybe three hundred subscribers to the service. Many of the residents do not quite understand the object of the formation of the district. To such of those who have not already had it explained to them, we will say that the district is the outward manifestation of the goodness of the Postoffice Department toward them. Residents of cities have enjoyed for many years past the blessings of free mail delivery several times a day. The farmer, on the other hand, usually receives his mail once or twice a week. The object of these free mail delivery districts is to bring the farming classes more in harmony with the privileges enjoyed by city folks in mail distribution. It costs nothing to be a subscriber to this service except the initial payment of $3.50 for the purchase of a mail box which will be placed in front of the residence of each subscriber along the route of delivery. Mail is not only delivered but collected as well, and a system of signals will be used whereby the subscriber is notified by the carrier that there is mail in the box for him; or, on the other hand, whether there is mail in the box for the carrier to take up. All farmers, it seems to us, should take advantage of this system for many reasons. First—An important letter may be addressed to a person through his postoffice, and not be called for possibly in a week. He remains in ignorance all this time relative to the contents of this letter, and the writer is likewise at a loss to account for his non-receipt of a reply. Next, the farmer having written his reply, must post off three, four, five or six miles to deposit his letter in the postoffice. This process keeps him up half the night, or consumes a good part of the following morning. Second—It frequently happens that parties in the city having word to convey to friends in the country fail to write because of the reason that the letter will not reach its destination in probably a week. If the matter to Blanks from the Postoffice parment will be circulated for sixatures for a few days yet, and all students of the district who have no signed should do so without delay. If the canvassers cannot be named left at this office will be allowed to the list and forwarded to Washington. While upon this subject might be useful to state that a petition circulated by Mr. Mercereau been sent on to Washington as for the establishment of a postoffice at West Anaheim, to be located sumedly in his grocery store. Understand that a protest to granting of the petition has circulated, and the authorities Washington asked to suspend action in the matter until the protest can be heard from. There exist good and sufficient reason for their tabulation of a postoffice at Anaheim. It is only about a quarter from the postoffice in It is, we believe, one of the rules Postoffice Department shall be established within two miles of another city Now that the free delivery of throughout this district is on point of inauguration, there is to be still less reason for their establishment of a postoffice at Anaheim, and we trust the department at Washington will so upon the matter. Census Blundering That the appointment of J. W Kinney of Buena Park to be an enumerator of the district takes place. Fullerton and Place was a mistake, is indicated in that census in that district such a muddled condition it would Philadelphia lawyer to find our matters stand. People in front town of Fullerton, as well as they try lying between that place and city, and from Placentia, aver have seen nothing of the census. McKinney worked on the census Buena Park for a couple of weeks when he got his papers in an incapable mix, telegraphed his resignation to Census Supervisor Davis of Los Angeles. This was making a bad worse confounded, for Mr. Davies giving his entire attention to trying up of reports of enumerator had already completed their work forwarded their papers to him. What the result of McKinney will be it is hard to say at this A number of the prominent pee section affected are making fort to have the census taken. It would be too bad to lose thie tion in the census reports. It affectthe county's standing,the ing several hundred people district. There were upward of 200 appl for 11 jobs as enumerators range county,and we are free REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. The Republican platform adopted at Philadelphia must be admitted, even by Democratic partisans, to be a progressive and enlightening statement of political principles. It is certainly "abreast of the times," and consequently grapples with every question of moment to the nation. We have not for a long time read a national convention declaration which seemed to breathe so much confidence and strength as this. Ordinarily, the politicians who make platforms are hesitating and timid. On many questions they are undecided, and on others they execute ludicrous straddles. At Philadelphia, however, there were evidently no faint hearts. The strong hand of a courageous committee has put forth the platform confident that it will meet the approval of a happy, prosperous and contented people. We think this phenomenon is explained by one statement in the document, which may, without comment, escape attention of the average reader. The platform states that during the four years of President McKinley's administration our exports have exceeded our imports by the enormous sum of $1,483,738.091. Throughout the one hundred ter, and the writer is likewise at a loss to account for his non-receipt of a reply. Next, the farmer having written his reply, must post off three, four, five or six miles to deposit his letter in the postoffice. This process keeps him up half the night, or consumes a good part of the following morning. Second—It frequently happens that parties in the city having word to convey to friends in the country fail to write because of the reason that the letter will not reach its destination in probably a week. If the matter to be conveyed is important, he telegraphs and pays for the immediate delivery of the message; if the matter is unimportant, probably he does not write at all. Third—The farmer frequently finds himself in this same predicament. He wants to write to his friend in the city, but he cannot spare the time to post his letter in a distant postoffice. How much handier, then, would it be for him to write his letter and take it to the delivery box at his front gate, with the knowledge that it would be taken up and posted early the following morning. How much more satisfactory to him would the knowledge be that his expected letter has either not yet arrived or is in his letter box a few steps from his front door. Free rural delivery is an experiment on the part of the Postoffice Department. The carrying of mail was in fact at first an experiment, as was also its delivery in the larger cities. We all remember not so many years ago that it cost three cents to mail a letter, whereas the perfection to which the department has been now brought makes it possible for a letter to be carried for two cents. Indeed, there are not lacking statesmen who declare that the rate of letter postage will soon be one cent, half the present impost. Yet all these matters were in the beginning experiments, as the rural delivery system of today is an experiment. Whether it shall develop into a success remains with the farmers them- up of reports of enumerators had already completed their work forwarded their papers to him.

PRIMARY LAW. Its Intricate Details Being Brought to Light Gradually—It Is Easy, After All. Primary elections will be held throughout the State on the second Tuesday of next month, the 14th. The election will be held under the authority of the boards of supervisors of the various counties, and will be governed by practically the same laws as a general election and conducted in precisely the same manner. There will be but one ballot, upon which all parties entitled to a representation will be placed in separate columns, and under each party heading the delegates to the various conventions will be voted for by qualified electors who wish to avail themselves of the privilege. And one of the first qualifications under the law is that the elector must be registered. It is provided, however, that where a new registration has been ordered and the new register is not completed, the last great register may be used; and that is probably what will be used here, as the new great register cannot lawfully be completed until forty days before the general election. The Santa Ana Herald suggests that it is best to take no chances, even though the probabilities are that the old registers will be used at the primaries. Every man who has not registered since January 1st should do so at once. The Republican State Central com- MONTEZUMA OIL CO. Los Angeles, Cal. Stock at 2 is selling so rapidly.

Well No. 2 of the Fullerton Oil company, according to advices received from the canyon, is flowing over the casing head and is flowing across the road six inches deep. Permission was asked to construct a dam across a small creek, which runs past the well, to save the oil. Mr. Hughes at once ordered scrapers and teams put to work to construct the dam. He was informed that the oil flowed from the well steadily and not by gushes, and that the output without a pump is fifty barrels per day. This oil is 34 gravity, and the company has a contract to sell all it can produce at $1.80 per barrel. The land of this company adjoins that of the Columbia on which well No. 7 has been gushing for more than a week. A Poor Millionaire Lately starved in London because he could not digest his food. Early use of Dr. King's New Life Pills would have Census Blundering. What the appointment of J. W. McKinney of Buena Park to be the census enumerator of the district taking in place, Fullerton and Placentia, is a mistake, is indicated in the fact that the census in that district is in a muddled condition it would take Philadelphia lawyer to find out how voters stand. People in from the town of Fullerton, as well as the countying between that place and this, and from Placentia, aver they are seen nothing of the census man. McKinney worked on the census at Buena Park for a couple of weeks, and he got his papers in an inextricable mix, telegraphed his resignation. Census Supervisor Davis of Los Angeles. This was making a bad case confounded, for Mr. Davis was being his entire attention to the closure of reports of enumerators who already completed their work and awarded their papers to him. What the result of McKinney's bull be it is hard to say at this time. Number of the prominent people of section affected are making an effort to have the census taken. Would be too bad to lose that section in the census reports. It would affect the county's standing, there be several hundred people in the district. There were upward of 200 applicants for the 11 jobs as enumerators in Ortega county, and we are free to say where they secured the jobs when elector must be registered. It is provided, however, that where a new registration has been ordered and the new register is not completed, the last great register may be used; and that is probably what will be used here, as the new great register cannot lawfully be completed until forty days before the general election. The Santa Ana Herald suggests that it is best to take no chances, even though the probabilities are that the old registers will be used at the primaries. Every man who has not registered since January 1st should do so at once. The Republican State Central committee filed its petition with the Secretary of State on Tuesday last, apportioning the number of delegates to each county, and fixing the date of the State convention for the 28th day of August at Santa Cruz. Orange county is entitled to nine delegates at this convention, and the detailed apportionment in the county is left to the County Central committee. The Seventh Congressional committee has filed its petition, allotting the same number of delegates to Orange county for the Congressional convention, and last Saturday the 39th Senatorial District committee met in Santa Ana and forwarded its petition. The Senatorial committee, to remove as far as possible all causes for confusion, also made an apportionment of nine delegates for Orange county, ten for Riverside and thirteen for San Bernardino, duplicating the number for both the State and Congressional committees. The Senatorial committee also went further and made the delegates to be elected to the State and Congressional conventions the delegates to the Senatorial convention. Thus the Republican voters of Orange county will chose nine delegates, who will serve at all three of the above-named conventions, and in addition will only have to select the precinct delegates to the county convention. The Republican County Central committee will meet in Santa Ana next Saturday afternoon and determine upon the precinct apportionment for the county convention and the apportionment of the State delegates within the county, and prepare its petition to the Board of Supervisors entitling the party to a place on the primary ballot. This will complete the preliminaries, and the voters will then be given the important charge of electing representative men as the various delegates who will attend the conventions, for under the new law no proxies can be voted. Slaughter Sale. Stern & Goodman's semi-annual slaughter sale continues to be the topic of uppermost interest in our flourishing neighboring town. More goods have been disposed of the past week than any time in the history of this well-known establishment. All lines of goods are going like hot cakes, and these two rustling merchants (Jacob Stern and Joe Goodman) are more affable, courteous and smiling than ever. The reason for all these things is the great rush to get bargains. Nothing succeeds like success, and this store has attained success in nothing more than in its present slaughter sale. Call and see them and be convinced. Anybody can do business with Stern & Goodman. Troubles of a Minister. To benefit others Rev. J. T. W.

Primaries. According to the new primary election law, primaries of all the different counties must be held on the second Tuesday in August (the 14th). The new law is an intricate affair, and it cost the taxpayers of the county a sum to see that it is carried out.

In short, the primary must be conducted just the same as a regular election. The Supervisors appoint the primary officers and county bears all the expense of the business. Tickets must be printed at the expense of the county, and the law provides just how many shall be printed each precinct. The County Clerk has to supply copies of the register to P. B.

"Are you one of the officers of the treasury department?" asked the man with the bloodshot eyes. "I am assistant secretary of the treasury," was the reply. "What can I do for you?" "Well, it's rather a confidential business, and I don't want it to go any further, but I've come to pay the government some money that I guess I owe it fairly. I came back from Europe some time ago with some dutiful goods concealed about me and got past the revenue officers with them. I figure that I beat the government out of about $6, and I've come to square up and get the matter off my mind." "Well," responded the assistant secretary, "we have what we call a conscience fund, and as this seems to be a case of conscience" "I don't know that it's my conscience that troubles me," said the visitor, "but I do know there's a big bullfrog that stays in a pond near where I live, and he keeps me awake, night after night, with his infernal 'cough up, cough up' and I've got tired of it."—Chicago Tribune. Hair Trigger Language. "So you finally proposed?" said, his chum. "Well, to tell the truth," returned the thoughtful youth.
