LET us see, what was it Br. Duckworth said about free rural mail delivery the other day in his correspondence to a Santa Ana paper: “There is quite a feeling through this part [West Anaheim] in regard to a petition being circulated for the rural mail delivery from this point to Garden Grove and Clair. We understand the required number have been about secured, but we also find that a great number have signed not having the matter fully explained as to the cost, etc., and will not have their mail delivered even if it should be established. After investigating the matter fully, there is a petition being circulated now against the same.” And what is it the First Assistant Postmaster General said in reference to would-be postmasters in crossroads communities interfering with this new method of mail delivery: “Of course, the new service produces heartburnings and complaints from postmasters of little offices interfered with by the better delivery. Some of them persuade their neighbors to sign protests to endeavor to convince their Representative in Congress that the entire underpinning of his political future will drop away if a particular village store is deprived of its postoffice. But there have been very few instances where, after three months’ trial of the new service, the people have asked for the restoration of the old system.” Inquiries covering a period of a week by a gentleman traveling through the territory embraced in the proposed district fail to reveal the identity of a single person to whom this “petition against the district” had been presented for signature. Nor is there a single person living at West Anaheim who has said he would not have his mail delivered in the event of the establishment of the route. A number have stated they have signed petitions for a postoffice at West Anaheim, but The foreign trade of the United States, for the fiscal year just ended, amounted to almost two and a quarter billion dollars, and was the largest in our history. Imports amounted to $849,714,329, and the exports of American products and manufactures were $1,394,479,214. The aggregate figures of our foreign trade reached $2,244,193,543. Compared with previous years, the imports of the 1900 fiscal year have been exceeded only once, in 1893, when they were $16,700,000 larger. The value of our exports last year has never been exceeded, the largest previous total being for 1898, when they were $163,000,000 less than in the year just ended. The following table shows our imports and exports in each fiscal year since 1890: | Year | Imports | Exports | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 1890 | $789,310,409 | $857,828,684 | | 1891 | $844,916,196 | $881,480,810 | | 1892 | $827,402,462 | 1,030,278,148 | | 1893 | $866,400,922 | 847,655,194 | | 1894 | $654,994,622 | 892,140,572 | | 1895 | $731,969,965 | 807,538,106 | | 1896 | $779,724,674 | 882,606,938 | | 1897 | $764,730,412 | 1,050,993,556 | | 1898 | $616,049,654 | 1,231,482,330 | | 1899 | $697,148,489 | 1,227,023,302 | | 1900 | $849,714,329 | 1,394,479,214 | Next it is of interest to show the total volume of our import and export trade, with our favorable or unfavorable balance in each year thus: | Total Foreign Trade | Favorable Balance | | :--- | :--- | | Year | Total Foreign Trade | Favorable Balance | | 1890 | $1,647,139,093 | $685,518,275 | | 1891 | $1,729,397,006 | $39,564,614 | | 1892 | $1,857,680,610 | $202,477,686 | | 1893 | $1,714,065,116 | $118,737,728 | | 1894 | $1,574,185,914 | $257,145,950 | | 1895 | $1,539,508,130 | $75,568,200 | | 1896 | $1,622,321,012 | $102,882,264 | | 1897 | $1,815，725，968 | 286，263，144 | | 1898 | $1，847，523，964 | 615，482，676 | | 1899 | $1，924，171，791 | 529，874，813 | | 1900 | $2，244，193，543 | 544，764，885 | Only once from 1890 to 1900 has our foreign trade balance been against us, and that was to the extent of $18,737,728 in 1893. During the other ten years the balance of our foreign trade in our favor amounted to $2,702,880,507 or at the average rate of $270,288,000 a year. During the last four years our unfavorable foreign trade balance has reached almost two billion dollars—to be exact,$1,976,335,518. During the three complete fiscal years, 1898-1900 under the administration of President McKinley our favorable foreign trade balance aggregated no less a sum than $1,690,- REAL ESTATE TRANSFER For the Week Ending July 23. 1904 Furnished by the Orange County Title pany; Santa Ana.

Nor is there a single person living at West Anaheim who has said he would not have his mail delivered in the event of the establishment of the route. A number have stated they have signed petitions for a postoffice at West Anaheim, but all have added (except the few comprising the postoffice steering committee) that they infinitely preferred free delivery. Where could this petition "against the district" have been circulated? We understand a petition asking for the creation of a postoffice at West Anaheim has been in circulation and sent on to Washington. But so far as we can learn, no "protest" to free delivery has been circulated. If such a petition was ever prepared, it must rest securely in the inside pocket of the would-be postmaster, who, knowing the state of feeling throughout the neighborhood, is probably afraid to offer it to a single resident of the district for signature. However, some busy-body has written on to Washington to say that "great opposition" exists to the organization of the free delivery district. We undertake to say that there is not a particle of truth in this statement. Whether or not the "correspondence" in the Santa Ana paper has been forwarded to Washington to support this busy-body's assertion we have no means at present of knowing; but we presume it has. If so, we take this means of branding its assertion as a transparent untruth, penned in a thoughtless moment probably, but susceptible of being used to place the people of this community in false light. There is not a particle of truth in it, nor do we think Mr. Duckworth would stand for such usage of the paragraph in question, which we believe was written more in jest than as a chronicle of an absolute fact. Mr. Cargill's renouncement of the free-silver Democracy, at the Republican meeting of Saturday evening, at which he presided, is an event of more than passing interest in the community. He has been a Democrat, as he said in his address preliminary to the speech of the evening, for a period of thirty years. He comes of a distinguished Democratic family, his father having been in his lifetime in Sachem in the Tammany Hall organization. In his day the elder Cargill held offices of public trust to which no man of mediocre ability would dare aspire, hav Hon. Perry S. Heath, until recently First Assistant Postmaster General, has our thanks for a number of documents dealing with rural mail delivery. These documents are on file at this office, and may be perused by those interested in the formation of the free delivery district here, as well as others. They contain the unanimous endorsement of all who have tried the plan of rural delivery, from the Atlantic seaboard to California. A number of routes are in operation in Santa Clara county, and there are many testimonials of approval of the plan on the part of patrons of the routes. Mr. Heath some days ago resigned against us, and that was to the extent of $18,737,728 in 1893. During the other ten years the balance of our foreign trade in our favor amounted to $2,702,880,507, or at the average rate of $270,288,000 a year. During the last four years our unfavorable foreign trade balance has reached almost two billion dollars—to be exact, $1,976,335,518. During the three complete fiscal years, 1898-1900, under the administration of President McKinley, our favorable foreign trade balance aggregated no less a sum than $1,690,-072,374. We are more than a Two-Billion-Dollar country as far as our foreign trade is concerned—we are well on the way to being a Three-Billion-Dollar country. This is expansion of the best kind. Now, for one more comparison, showing how the foreign trade of the United States compares with that of Great Britain and of Germany, the figures for the two latter countries being for the calendar year ending December 31, 1899, while those for the United States are for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1900: Country: Imports Exports Great Britain $2,260,619,989 $1,280,971,028 Germany 1,286,888,380 949,057,900 United States 849,714,329 1,304,479,214 The imports of the United States are the smallest, and our exports are the largest. Therefore our trade balance must be the most favorable. Let us see what it is: Total Foreign Trade Balance Great Britain $3,650,591,028 $1,670,648,950 Germany 2,186,846,340 -286,930,420 United States 2,244,193,543 plus 544,764,886 Last year Great Britain had an unfavorable trade balance that exceeded a billion dollars. Germany's unfavorable trade balance amounted to $286,930,420. But the trade balance in favor of the United States amounted to $544,764,885. Another fact that is very important is this: The United States is now a larger exporting nation than the United Kingdom; our exports last year exceeding those of the mother country by $104,508,175. Hon. Perry S. Heath, until recently First Assistant Postmaster General, has our thanks for a number of documents dealing with rural mail delivery. These documents are on file at this office, and may be perused by those interested in the formation of the free delivery district here, as well as others.

He has been a Democrat, as he said in his address preliminary to the speech of the evening, for a period of thirty years. He comes of a distinguished Democratic family, his father having been in his lifetime a Sachem in the Tammany Hall organization. In his day the elder Cargill held offices of public trust to which no man of mediocrity ability would dare aspire, having been, we believe, at one time Collector of the Port of New York. Mr. Cargill's uncle (J. Cam. Hays, who is enjoying the evening of life beneath the spreading trees at the family residence at Brookshurst), himself a Democrat of the old school, fought valiantly as a young Lieutenant in the Mexican war. So when, with such family traditions and associations clustering about him, our fellow-citizen renounces his party, the event is one, as we say, of more than passing interest. Mr. Cargill voted for President McKinley four years ago, being unable to subscribe to the teachings of the Chicago platform. This year he renounces the party entirely, for as he says, "the Democratic party is dead." He accepts his baptism into the ranks of the Republican party, and is welcomed by all who appreciate his integrity, lofty patriotism and independence of character. Mr. Cargill is an orange grower known throughout this portion of the state, and the change in his political views will be readily understood by those who know him as having been brought about by lofty and high-minded principles, which he places above party. He believes in expansion and business, in creating markets for American products and manufactures, in a stable currency; he believes in the reduction of the public debt, and is unalterably opposed to the issue of bonds in times of peace. These documents are on file at this office, and may be perused by those interested in the formation of the free delivery district here, as well as others. They contain the unanimous endorsement of all who have tried the plan of rural delivery, from the Atlantic seaboard to California. A number of routes are in operation in Santa Clara county, and there are many testimonials of approval of the plan on the part of patrons of the routes. Mr. Heath some days ago resigned his position for the purpose of taking the place of Secretary of the Republican National Committee. It is known that he was strongly averse to giving up his position as First Assistant Postmaster General, he having made the matter of rural mail delivery the feature of his administration; and being desirous of carrying it to a successful consummation throughout the country, President McKinley was also strongly opposed to accepting his resignation, but when it was pointed out that Mr. Heath's abilities fitted him for the place selected for him, better than any other man at that time before the public, the President reluctantly consented to part with his services; and Mr. Heath left an office that he has honored with his stewardship for a number of years past. However, the matter of rural delivery will continue under the guidance of the Postoffice Department. It is an institution that has come to stay. Hundreds of routes have been established throughout the country, and more are being asked for constantly. The petition asking the inauguration of free delivery here ought to be returned from Washington, with Congressman Needham's endorsement, some time this week. Major Jeffrey, who is engaged in establishing routes throughout Southern California, is expected here within a few days to go over the route. The Best Age For Men to Edward Bok, writing in The Home Journal on "A Boy For Band," contends that "no young under 26 years of age is in a competent to take unto himself. Before that age he is simply able to offer to a girl as a safe fund life happiness. He is uniform character, unsettled in his solutely ignorant of the first step of what consideration or love woman means. He doesn't know self, let alone knowing a work is full of fancies, and it is nature to flirt from one fancy other.

The Inspector of Routes Ordered to Anaheim by the Postoffice Department. Yesterday word was received from Congressman Needham to the effect that he had requested the Postoffice Department to detail an agent to examine and report the proposed free delivery route at Anaheim. The agent of the Postoffice Deptment may be looked for to arrive in this city at any time. All committees who have been at work upon the route should hold themselves in readiness for notification to meet him when he comes. A committee consisting of J. B. Neff, A. H. Cargill, Supervisor Potter and Herman Dickel go to Los Angeles today to have a final conference with Major Jeffrey relative to the route, previous to his coming here. Subscribers to the route should be ready to meet the Major when he comes. Changes may be recommended by him after going over the route, and those who desire to remain in the distri­ tion should make it a point to have as many of their neighbors sign the list as possible. The question is asked, Which section will have its mail delivered first? As near as we can answer, that section which has the greatest number of subscribers will be the first to receive the carrier's call. The aim will be to give the best service to the greatest num­ber. But no one can tell who will be first. For that reason all should see the inspector, and learn what he has to say upon the subject. It is not impossible that two routes may be formed. That would give us two carriers, and give subscribers vastly improved service. More than a sufficient number of subscribers have been secured to form the first district, and with the addition of the necessary number, probably the second route may be formed without difficulty.

The Ohio is no longer the beautiful river it once was. It flowed in majestic curves and sweeps through a limitless paradise. The glory of that river in the barbaric splendor of an autumn day was beyond description. Robed from the Alleghenies to the Mississippi in her gorgeous fabric of maple and sycamore, which everywhere drooped down to the stately flood, shimmering, bending in her course with considerate and majestic dignity, a trip on one of the brightly painted steamboats was the event of a lifetime. There was also a dignity in the steamboats. They did not pant and rattle like a locomotive, nor were they silent like an ocean steamer. The long, huge steam cylinders, with deliberation and a soft though pervading sound, blew huge clouds of steam into the air. The river steamers were the Monte Carlos of the new world. Every one of them carried its contingent of professional gamblers, each of whom had a "bowie" in his boot leg. These men, unmolested, traveled the year round between Pittsburg and New Orleans, fleecing the unwary and paying a percentage to the captains. The Ohio is a noble river yet, though winding through forest denuded hills. The orchards and cornfields are attractive. It promised once to become the Rhine in vineyards, but the grapes were smitten with a rust which destroyed the crops until the attempt was abandoned. It will never be crowned with fendal castles in ruins, but the groves will be replanted, and another century end will see it once more the "beautiful river."—Chicago Interior. NOTED ANAGRAMS. Ingenious Transmutation of the Names of Well Known Persons. Anagrams that transmute the names of well known men and women are often startlingly appropriate. What could be better in this way than these announcements, evolved from two great statesmen's names when the reins of power changed hands: Gladstone, "G leads not!" Disraeli, "I lead, sir!" Quite as happy is the comment on the devoted nursing of Florence Nightingale, whose name yields "Flit on, cheering angel." Among those that are most often quoted we may mention Horatio Nelson, "Honor est a Nilo;" Charles James Stuart, "Claims Arthur's Sect;" Pilate's question, "Quid est veritas?" ("What is truth?"), answered by "Est Vir qui adest," ("It is the man here present;"); Swedish Nightingale, "Sing high, sweet Linda; David Livingstone," "D. V., go and visit Nile;" the Marquess of Ripon (who signed the grand mastership of Freemasons when he became a Romanist), "R. I. P., quoth Freemasons;" Charles Prince of Wales, "All France calls, Oh, help!" Sir Roger Charles Doughty Tichborne, baronet, "Yon horrid butcher Orton, biggest rascal here." And many shorter specimens, such as telegraph, "great help;" astronomers, "no more stars" and "moon starers;" one hug, "enough;" editors, "so tired." IT CLEANS THE SHIPS. Sailing Through a Volcano Crater In the Aegean Sea. In the Aegean sea a vessel may sail into the top of a crater, and though it is hard to find anchorage there, yet a mere sail through is appreciated greatly by captains, because it cleanses the bottom of the ships from marine growth. More than 2,000 years ago the isle of Santorin was split in half by an earthquake, with the result that what was once the crater of a volcano is now a crescent shaped harbor. Two glistening white towns of Thera and St. Nicholas are perched on the summit of the steep cliffs, whose dark and dismal hue is similar to that of the top of Veuvius. Standing out against the sky are large numbers of windmills, with many sails, arranged in a perfect circle. These are evidently employed for crushing the olives, which, along with the terraced vines, are the staple product of the island. The Santorin wine is of excellent quality and is highly appreciated in the Levant. Between the main island on the east and the smaller, Theresia, on the west, are the three small Kaumene islands, all of which have come into existence since the original earthquake, while the largest of the three was "born from the sea" less than 200 years ago, showing that the center of the old volcano has still a certain amount of activity. The water in the harbor into which the sulphurous streams from this volcanic island drain has a peculiar property which completely cleans off growths of every kind from the bottom of any ship.

The Best Age For Men to Marry. Edward Bok, writing in The Ladies' Home Journal on "A Boy For A Husband," contends that "no young man under 25 years of age is in any sense competent to take unto himself a wife. Before that age he is simply a boy who has absolutely nothing which he can offer to a girl as a safe foundation for life happiness. He is unformed in his character, unsettled in his ideas, absolutely ignorant of the first essentials of what consideration or love for a woman means. He doesn't know himself, let alone knowing a woman. He is full of fancies, and it is his boyish nature to flirt from one fancy to another. "He is incapable of the affection upon which love is based, because he has not lived long enough to know what the feeling or even the word means. He is full of theories, each one of which, when he comes to put it into practice, will fall. He is a boy pure and simple, passing through which every boy must pass before he becomes a man. But that period is not the marrying time. For as his opinions of life are so change, so are his fancies of the girl he esteems as the only girl in the world to make him happy. The man of 80 rarely weds the girl whom he fancied when he was 20." A Freak of Lightning. Lightning performed a strange feat near Osceola, Pa., during the recent thunderstorm, says the Oil City Derrick. Three fine cows belonging to a farmer had been turned out to pasture in a field on which the new grass is already quite high, and when the shower came on they gathered together in one corner under some trees. There is a wire fence running close by the spot where they were standing, and a bolt of lightning was attracted to it and ran along the slender wires until the cows were reached, when it glanced off, striking the animals and killing all three instantly.

A Story For Papa. There is a moral in this little story of child life. "Mamma," asked little 8-year-old Freddie, "are we going to heaven some day?" "Yes, dear, I hope so," was the reply. "I wish papa could go too," continued the little fellow. "Well, and don't you think he will?" asked his mother. "Oh no," replied Freddie; "he could not leave his business!"
