The advent of the Los Angeles and Salt Lake railroad into Orange county should cause the citizens of Anaheim to bestir themselves to the end that their interests may be subserved in the construction of the road, or its branch line, as near this city as possible. There seems to be no doubt that the main line will traverse the Placentia country; that is as certain as anything can well be. The road, according to those in well-informed circles, will run from Los Angeles to Whittier, thence across the La Habra valley and through the oil belt, tapping the Placentia country at the Wilshire and Strain orchards. Thence the route lies along the section line lying north of the Wilshire and Bradford places to the Santa Ana canyon, and on to Riverside. This route has been already surveyed, and while another preliminary route has been also run through the Pomona valley, there seems to be little doubt that the line through Orange county will be the one finally adopted—in fact, the articles of incorporation say as much. The new railroad will build a spur, according to the articles of incorporation, from Bixby to Santa Ana. It is this line which it behooves our citizens to bestir themselves to see that the route selected for it be through this city. We understand that if rights of way may be secured the road will pass through Anaheim; this is just what our citizens should see is accomplished without delay. The chamber of commerce of the results of which it will soon be possible to make practical use. The work which has thus been going on in the field consisted of making forest surveys and of gathering measurements and information about growth, stand, reproduction, etc. Much of it, as that in the Black Hills Forest Reserve, in the Adirondacks, and on the tract of the Sawyer & Austin Lumber company in Arkansas, is preparatory to the preparation of what are called "working plans," or plans for the management and utilization of given tracts of timber. These are based not on any general rules, but on a thorough knowledge of the peculiarites of the forest on each tract, of the market and transportation facilities of the regions in which they are situated, and of the financial necessities of each case. The rest of the work of the field parties has been more of the character of investigations—as, for instance, the examination of the influence of forests cover on waterflow which was made on the watershed of the Arrowhead river in Southern California, the studies of the habits of growth and reproduction of the two most important lumber trees of the Pacific coast—the Red Fir and the Redwood, and the survey of the results of tree-planting undertakings which have been carried on in the northern part of the Mississippi Valley. During the coming winter the agents of the Division will spend most of their time in working up the results of the summer's surveys and in preparing reports on them, although there will doubtless be some field work as well. Promotion. C. G. McKinley, who for some years has been a highly esteemed resident of this city, leaves on Saturday for Seattle, Wash., where he will assume the agency for the Southern California REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

John Jackson to Jacob Yaeger— The new railroad will build a spur, according to the articles of incorporation, from Bixby to Santa Ana. It is this line which it behooves our citizens to bestir themselves to see that the route selected for it be through this city. We understand that if rights of way may be secured the road will pass through Anaheim; this is just what our citizens should see is accomplished without delay. The chamber of commerce will probably take the matter up, and appoint committees to wait upon Mr. J. Ross Clark, to the end that the route for the Bixby spur may be located hitherward. Bixby station is due west of Anaheim. The spur would undoubtedly run to Los Alamitos, where Senator Clark's sugar refinery is located. Thence the securing of an available route to this city should be a matter of little difficulty. That the spur will be continued on to the main line at Placentia is more than probable. This would give the road twenty miles less haul to tide water than by the Los Angeles route. The air is filled with railroad rumors. As we write, on Wednesday, the report reaches us that grade stakes have been set beyond the sandwash between this city and Fullerton, and it is pointed out that that section offers a convenient route for a railway line from Bixby to Placentia. Whether these grade stakes be for Senator Clark's road, or for the electric line from Whittier hitherward, we cannot say; we publish the rumor for what it is worth. At all events, the people of this city should get together and make a long pull and a strong pull to get the Clark spur into Anaheim. Then it can be continued on from this city to a junction with the main line at Placentia. With all the bubbling and squeaking which we have been treated to relative to the three routes of rural mail delivery diverging from this city, we doubt if many changes are contemplated in the service. The tempest in the Clair teapot has quite subsided, and we hear that a dozen new mail boxes will be erected in that neighborhood. The carrier's route will be changed to accommodate these people, and we believe the Clair goose hangs at a sufficient altitude from terra firma. The West Anaheim postoffice has gone by the boards—in fact, it went by the boards "lond ado," as the little boy used to say who couldn't juggle his trumpet. That the Olive postoffice will one finally adopted—in fact, the articles of incorporation say as much. During the coming winter the agents of the Division will spend most of their time in working up the results of the summer's surveys and in preparing reports on them, although there will doubtless be some field work as well. Promotion. C. G. McKinley, who for some years has been a highly esteemed resident of this city, leaves on Saturday for Seattle, Wash., where he will assume the agency for the Southern California Fruit exchange. Mr. McKinley has been secretary of the Orange County Fruit exchange during most of his term of residence here, and his uniformly excellent service has earned for him this well-merited promotion. His wife and daughter remain here for the present, but will probably leave for the north in the spring. Mr. McKinley contemplates returning next summer. During his residence here he and his estimable wife have made many warm friendships, and their departure will cause regret. At the meeting of the local fruit association on Saturday Mr. McKinley's resignation was accepted, and a vote of thanks was tendered him for his efficient services. The association elected M. Nebelung as his successor. Bridge High and Dry. Frank Buther was in from Yorba on Monday and reported the bridge over the Santa Ana river at Peralta high and dry, the stream having cut its way around the structure toward the north, and circling back to the channel a short distance west of the bridge. Mr. Buther says that if another heavy downpour should occur, the river, if nothing is done to prevent it, is liable to leave its channel entirely and flow down in the old sandwash. Eugenia A.

Mr.Crowther informs us the Durkee ranch yielded 250 tons of hay this season which netted the water company $10 per ton.The ranch has paid all expenses since coming into possession of the two valley water companies, leaving a deficit of only $200.The income has been sufficient to pay the interest upon the indebtedness，as well as all other expenditures，less the small deficit stated. The two companies have purchased another tract of land near Rincon which gives them two miles upon each side of the river at that point，including an absolute right to the water flowing therein. The suit to enjoin O.B.Fuller from diverting water from the river at this point comes up in court soon.Fuller has been appropriating water belonging to the water companies,and they purpose to bring him up with a sharp turn.
