A city minister was recently handed a notice to be read from his pulpit. Accompanying it was a clipping from a newspaper bearing upon the matter. The clergyman started to read the extract and found that it began：“Take Kemp's Balsam, the best cough cure.” This was hardly what he had expected, and after a moment's hesitation, he turned it over, and found on the other side the matter intended for the reading.

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1901. CLAYTON-BULWER TREATY. Senator Morgan Denounces It as a Shameful Alliance With Great Britain. Senator Morgan of Alabama last week offered in the Senate a resolution declaring the abrogation of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty between the United States and Great Britain, and addressed the Senate for nearly two hours upon it. His admonitions to Great Britain were particularly sharp. He declared that if Great Britain should endeavor to enforce the terms of the treaty, the effort would result in a war in which the great empire, which has controlled for scores of years the commerce of the world, would be swept from power and her King would be left with sovereignty only over his own island. After the routine of morning business had been transacted Morgan addressed the Senate upon his resolution. He said he would exclude from his argument any consideration of the Panama Canal commission. The only prospect of the construction of the Nicaragua canal now by the United States rested upon the protocols which had been entered into between this country and the Governments of Nicaragua and Costa Rica. He challenged any Senator to point to a single proposition which Great Britain had made for such a modification of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty as would admit of the construction of the Nicaragua canal. No such action, he said, had ever been taken by Great Britain. During all the time when Americans were "hugging to their bosoms" the delusion that Great Britain eventually would enter upon a friendly arrangement for the construction of the canal Great Britain had maintained a "profound and golden silence." He called her silence "golden" because, he asserted, Great Britain, through Liverpool, which was FORESTS OF THE PHILIPPINES Trained Lumbermen Sent to the Islands for the Purpose of Examining into that Natural Source of Wealth [CONTRIBUTED TO THE GAZETTE.] WASHINGTON, D. C., March 7, 1901. The Division of Forestry of the U.S. Department of Agriculture has selected from its working force two trained lumbermen with some knowledge of forestry, to be sent to the Philippine Islands in compliance with a cable request of the Taft Philippine Commission. The persons elected for this work are Mr. Grant Bruce, formerly a State forester in New York, and Mr. Edward Hamilton. Both of these men are expert lumbermen with some training in forestry, and have been selected in view of their special fitness for the Philippine work. A bureau of forestry was established in the Philippines in April, 1900, with Capt. George P. Ahern, Ninth United States Infantry, in charge. The work of this bureau has convinced the Taft Commission of the great importance of the timber lands as a natural source of wealth and of the necessity of putting the bureau on a substantial footing and handling these woodlands under scientific forest methods. Furthermore, it is evident that the cutting of timber under proper regulations will provide a large and increasing annual revenue to the Government. It has been found necessary to permit the cutting of timber to supply the pressing needs, but care has been taken at the same time that the cutting should be done in a manner that would work no injury to the future growth of the forests. These considerations led the commission to cable to Washington for trained foresters to assist in putting the service on a more satisfactory footing. Under the Spanish admiration the timberlands of the Philippine Islands ITEMS ABOUT IRRIGATION. Random Notes Concerning the Subject from Our Washington Correspondent. The public pressure that has been brought to bear upon Congress to take up the question of Western irrigation as a public improvement of arid lands has been exceedingly strong. The question seems to have forced itself to the front of its own volition. For a subject which in the early winter it was not proposed to push upon Congress, owing to the shortness of the session, it has seemed to come in for a very full share of discussion, under one heading and another, at most every turn of that body. The country is getting to know something about the possibilities of national irrigation, and Congress itself has learned that it is one of the foremost questions pressing for solution; and that it must soon be taken up and passed upon. Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock emphasizes the fact that any means that results in the upbuilding of the West must create an additional market for the manufactures of the East. This may seem a sordid way of looking at the matter, yet it is a purely business proposition. It is tantamount to a guaranty that the East will receive a direct return for any benefit it may confer on the West by assisting in its development. It would certainly be the course of wisdom for this country to practically annex by irrigation the vast territory of the arid region, with its possibilities for supporting a population which could add so much to the wealth and resources of the country. The Secretary of the Interior, in his last report, estimates that the arid region, under a comprehensive system of irrigation and conservation of floods, would support a population of 50,000,000. This seems almost incredible, even with the example of our most densely populated section of the country. But it is ex- Minister's Mistake. He was recently handed the bead from his pulpit. It was a clipping from a hearing upon the matter he started to read the excerpt that it began: "Take them, the best cough cure." Well what he had expected, moment's hesitation, he and found on the other intended for the reallining. Snap Railway Rates.

ADAMS STOMACH LIVER PILLS He chained to a single proposition which Great Britain had made for such a modification of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty as would admit of the construction of the Nicaragua canal. No such action, he said, had ever been taken by Great Britain. During all the time when Americans were "hugging to their bosoms" the delusion that Great Britain eventually would enter upon a friendly arrangement for the construction of the canal Great Britain had maintained a "profound and golden silence." He called her silence "golden" because, he asserted, Great Britain, through Liverpool, which was the commercial center of the world, was being enriched, and the United States, because of the lack of the Nicaragua canal, was contributing to the enriching of Great Britain. “There cannot be anything more precious to-day to Great Britain,” said Morgan, “than to prevent the construction of the Nicaragua canal.” If Great Britain by her 'golden silence' can prevent that her profits will continue, and the longer she can do that the greater will be her profits on the Suez canal. She has remained as silent as the sphynx which looks out upon the Nile and upon the desert, and she seems to be looking out upon a desert of wasted American opportunities and, sad to say, American honor. Great Britain is still silent." With some feeling in referring to the Clayton-Bulwer treaty the Alabama Senator said: "We will make now no compromise with Great Britain up on that subject. We will make no concession to Great Britain in relation to the treaty. What we shall do with it (and some of our people are opposed even that) is that we shall declare it abrogated. If the vote on my resolution could be taken to-day it would inform the President of the United States that he has no two-thirds majority in the Senate to adopt any compromise he may make with Great Britain. “If it is the purpose of Great Britain still to look for delay she will not get it. It is her determination to pick a quarrel with us about it, she will find the United States can muster at least half the number of men who voted for the President in the last election—fighting men. And she will find when that war terminates the steel band which binds the throne in London with Australia and India and passes through Canada will have been rent in twain, and with its severance down will go the empire. She will find that she has over-taxed our patience. She has started with a new king and upon a new career that will break up the empire and reduce the king to the sovereignty of his own island. Does Great Britain suppose she can escape from the terrors of the existing situation and the prospective situation everywhere, and that she can find a favorable opportunity to display her military power against the United States?” Morgan said he did not boast of the power of the United States in money, men or valor, but he was thoroughly conscious of them and gloried in that consciousness, because he knew when the supreme moment should come and any power in the world should under- The bureau was recently reorganized so as to consist of an officer in charge, an inspector, a botanist, a chief clerk and stenographer, a translator, a law clerk, a record clerk, 10 assistant foresters and 30 rangers. It is the intention of the officer in charge to work up a forest service on the lines of the work carried on in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, through its Division of Forestry. The wholesale destruction of timber will be stopped, and the cutting will proceed under regulations looking to the future yields of the forests. The fire question will also receive close attention. Under the Spanish administration the timber lands of the Philippine Islands were in charge of a department of forestry which was established in 1863. The personnel of this department was made up of expert foresters, rangers, clerks, draughtamen, etc., the higher officials being selected from the Spanish Corps of Engineers. After Capt. Ahern was appointed he received authority to employ a small number of foresters, rangers and clerks; by September his office force had been doubled, in order to handle the work of the bureau properly. The call for activity on the part of those in charge of the Bureau of Forestry was emphasized at once by the lumber famine in Manila and other important towns, owing to the destruction of buildings in the war, and the increased demand for good dwelling houses resulting from large infux of Americans. For these reasons the felling of trees and the marketing of lumber had to begin soon after the establishment of the bureau. Captain Ahern is in constant communication with the Division of Forestry, for assistance and co-operation with the Philippine Bureau of Forestry. The work of that bureau was confined for some months to the island of Luzon, but recently has been carried to other points in the archipelago. The present plan of the bureau is to cover all the important forests as the development of the working force will permit. One great drawback which is retarding work of the bureau is the lack of capable and subordinate officials. It is difficult to find men familiar with the forest conditions and uses of the woods of the Philippines, who are entirely satisfactory in other respects. It is believed that the best means of securing a competent and efficient force is to employ new men and train them on the ground as speedily as possible. In this work Messrs Bruce and Hamilton will be able to render valuable assistance. The bureau was recently reorganized so as to consist of an officer in charge, an inspector, a botanist, a chief clerk and stenographer, a translator, a law clerk, a record clerk, 10 assistant foresters and 30 rangers.

It would certainly be the course of wisdom for this country to practically annex by irrigation the vast territory of the arid region, with its possibilities for supporting a population which could add so much to the wealth and resources of the country. The Secretary of the Interior, in his last report estimates that the arid region, under a comprehensive system of irrigation and conservation of floods, would support a population of 50,000,000. This seem almost incredible, even with the extreme ample of our most densely populated section of the country. But it is expressed by the fact that owing to its great productivityness, small areas of irrigated lands suffice for the needs of individual farmer, and a dense farming population naturally attracts a large urban population engaged in manufacturing and trade. The main objection of Eastern Congressmen to the reclamation of the arid regions is that such action would be ineffect to tax the East for the benefit of the West. This objection is not valid, for these lands after redemption would be available for Eastern home-seekers as well as Western men, and upbuilding of the great region would benefit all sections of the Union. More farming land for the West more money for the East, and water for the South! This may be seen to be a symposium ofthe resultsof comprehensive irrigation policy which would place 75,000,000 acres of any Western land under close cultivation thus create an immense home-mark forthe manufacturing interestsofthe East and atthe same time largely pptentvent disastrous floodofthe Mississippi valley.

Does Great Britain suppose she can escape from the terrors of the existing situation and the prospective situation everywhere, and that she can find a favorable opportunity to display her military power against the United States?" Morgan said he did not boast of the power of the United States in money, men or valor, but he was thoroughly conscious of them and gloried in that consciousness, because he knew when the supreme moment should come and any power in the world should undertake to bridle these United States by placing such restraints upon her sovereignty as were contained in the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, the American people would resist to the bitter end. "And that resistance," he exclaimed, vehemently, "will mean the wiping out of any power on earth that undertakes the job." He regarded the Clayton-Bulwer treaty in the nature of "a shameful alliance," with Great Britain, and denounced any suggestion of the inability of the United States to sever such an alliance without incurring the penalties of a war. He maintained that in spite of the silence of Great Britain the United States could abrogate the treaty at any time, and until it was abrogated it would act as a clog upon the extension of the commerce of this country. The forest lands of the Philippine Islands, as estimated by Captain Ahren, cover 40,000,000 acres; larger in extent and greater in value than the forests of India. There are 385 species of timber-producing trees, and about 50 more species as yet unclassified. Included in the above list are very hard woods, capable of taking a beautiful polish; woods that resist climatic influences and the attack of white ants; still others that are especially suited for sea-piling or for use as railroad ties. There are many varieties of trees producing valuable gums, oils and drugs; rubber and gutta-percha are abundant in Mindanao and Tawi-Tawi; while at least 17 dyewoods are found within the limits of the archipelago. Coconut palms grow without care or cultivation throughout the islands. These are also many varieties of palms, bamboo canes and ratan which are of commercial value and will afford profitable employment to native labor.

Captain Ahern, in a recent report, calls attention to several obstacles in the way of immediate success in lumbering in the Philippine islands, the most serious drawbacks being lack of good roads and skilled labor. Forest roads and river driveways are almost unknown, and present methods of lumbering are slow and expensive. The natives, he finds, are not skilled workers, and though receiving very low wages, their work is found by no means cheap when one considers the cost of felling and hauling a cubic foot of timber to the shipping point.

Gazette. NUMBER 21 ABOUT IRRIGATION. Has Concerning the Subject Washington Correspondent. The pressure that has been clear upon Congress to take action of Western irrigation improvement of arid lands exceedingly strong. The question have forced itself to the brown volition. For a subject the early winter it was not push upon Congress, owing business of the session, it has come in for a very full share under one heading and most every turn of that country is getting to know about the possibilities of navigation, and Congress itself that it is one of the foremost pressing for solution; must soon be taken up and put into effect.

It is tantamount to a guard the East will receive a direct any benefit it may confer on by assisting in its development certainly be the course of our country to practically irrigation the vast territory and region, with its possibili- supporting a population which so much to the wealth and wealth of the country. The Secrete Interior, in his last report, that the arid region, under a massive system of irrigation and provision of floods, would support a man of 50,000,000. This seems incredible, even with the ex- our most densely populated the country. But it is ex- NOW, HOW ABOUT THIS, JOEL? Heaps of Trouble Caused by "a Self-Syndicated Writer on Agricultural Topics." Our esteemed contemporary, the Los Angeles Times, refers as follows to an item recently appearing in these columns. We add that similar criticism of the article has also appeared in other California newspapers: "A self-syndicated writer on agricultural topics, named Joel Shoemaker, who now, we believe, makes his home somewhere in the State of Washington, whence he inundates the press with typewritten matter of greater or less importance, has procured to be published in several exchanges—among others the Riverside Press and the ANAHEIM GAZETTE—an article on olive culture, in the course of which he says: "In fifteen counties of Southern California there are successful olive groves consisting of more than seventy varieties. The growers report having immense sales for the fruit in all forms, and the oils are taken in many places in preference to the imported. The profits from an olive orchard are greater than from any other fruit, and the demand for olive products increases every year. There are many thousands of acres in this country that might be devoted to olive culture and the industry become as important as any of the special foreign fruits." "This is misleading in the highest degree, not to say absolutely false. So far from the profits of an olive orchard being greater than from any other fruit, the reverse is true, there being scarcely any other fruit raised in Southern California that has been so disappointing to the fruit growers during the past few years. So much is this the case that a number of growers have rooted up and abandoned their trees, while only a few months ago, at the request of the olive men, an expert was sent out by the University of California to discover why the industry was a failure. The growers complain BUSINESS CONTINUES GOOD. R. G. Dun & Co.'s Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for February in Southern California. Business throughout the country continues good. Bank clearings and railway earnings, which are good measures of trade volume, indicate quite a gain in business over last year. Wool transactions are heavier, but prices tend lower. A revival in export trade in cotton is noted. There is no diminution in movement in iron and steel, and all markets report higher prices. In our immediate district interest centers on orange crop. Unseasonably warm weather that has forced picking to last possible degree and shortage in cars to move fruit have made a situation that threatens serious loss to the grower. The bulk of orange crop is navels, which must be marketed by last of March. Half the crop has not yet gone forward. Packing houses are full of oranges ready for shipment, with practically no cars to meet the demand. Celery shipping is about over. The output from the Peatlands reached 1500 carloads. Beet crop is progressing more rapidly than at any former season. More than 5000 acres are already in at Oxnard. About 15,000 acres will be planted in this vicinity: 2000 acres have been planted for Alamitos factory and many more acres are being put in. It is probable that this factory will this season have a run of four to six months. For the first time in four years Southern California beemen look for large gathering of honey product. Only a few late rains are needed to make a record-breaking crop. The market is almost bare of old honey. Condition of deciduous fruits and berries is promising and new canneries are being built in this section. It is certainly be the course of war this country to practically irrigation the vast territory and region, with its possibil- supporting a population which also much to the wealth and of the country. The Secrete Interior, in his last report, that the arid region, under a intensive system of irrigation andation of floods, would support a man of 50,000,000. This seems incredible, even with the ex- our most densely populated of the country. But it is ex- by the fact that owing to itsDUCTIVENESS, small areas of ir- lands suffice for the needs of individual farmer, and a dense population naturally attracts urban population engaged inuring and trade.

GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL. No Oil at Capistrano. Ever successfully shutting off water in the ocean four times in its well on reach, the Capistrano Oil company "This is misleading in the highest degree, not to say absolutely false. So far from the profits of an olive orchard being greater than from any other fruit, the reverse is true, there being scarcely any other fruit raised in Southern California that has been so disappointing to the fruit growers during the past few years. So much is this case that a number of growers have rooted up and abandoned their trees, while only a few months ago, at the request of the olive men. an expert was sent out by the University of California to discover why the industry was a failure. The growers complain that, firstly, the trees in many instances refuse to bear, and that, secondly, when they did get a crop they were unable to market the product at a profit. "This season the outlook for the olive industry in Southern California is much more encouraging. The Timer firmly believes, as it has always believed, that before long olive growing will take its place among the important and successful horticultural industries of the State. At present, however, it is in an embryo stage, and any person would be foolish to plant thousands of acres to olives until the facts in regard to the successful culture of the fruit are better understood. "Papers published in Southern California, where the olive has been so extensively planted during the past ten years, should know better than to print such misleading articles as the one above referred to." We plead guilty. The article got into the paper during the absence of the agricultural editor, and, our word for it, when we read it the morning of publication, felt like a forty-pound torpedo had exploded under us. But the question arises, How the devil did the Riverside Press come to print such a ridiculous article? Editor Clark ought to have known better! Car Famine. The orange shippers of Southern California are experiencing a car famine, and if the railroad companies do not relieve the congested condition of affairs within a few days the growers will sustain a loss of many thousands of dollars. At present the orange-shipping business is at its height, but it is impossible to secure cars to move the unprecedented heavy crop. The navels are so ripe that every day lessens their value and adds to the waste. One Redlands firm has ten carloads packed away ready for Eastern shipment, but the transportation companies are unable to accommodate them with the necessary cars. Other large shippers have thousands of tons of fruit on hand, and declare that if relief is not given soon they, too, will lose heavily. Several packing houses have been temporarily closed because of the critical situation. Fred Ruggles, manager of the Redlands Orange Growers' Association, says the outlook is indeed a most serious one. Thirty cars were needed at Redlands one day recently, when but four were obtainable.

Condition of deciduous fruits and berries is promising and new canneries are being built in this section. It is expected no less than nine canneries will be in operation this season by June 1st. Beans are quiet; prices stiff. Dried fruit and nuts are dull; holders generally willing to shade prices. The growers are beginning to agitate the question of how the unusually large crops looked for this year in Southern California can be handled. Last year, with practically no grain crop, light yields of beans, beets and deciduous fruits, there was a shortage of helpers. The demand for labor will be unquestionably very great this year, and unless there is a decided increase in number of workers over last year great loss will result. Locally business is generally good, money active, interest rates easy—42 to 7 per cent net on good security. Clearances for month just passed show increase of 30 per cent over February of last year. Real estate brokers report continued activity in sales of city and country property, one leading firm reporting city sales since January 1st amounting to nearly $500,000.

Water successfully shutting off water in the ocean four times in its well on Beach, the Capistrano Oil company been compelled to abandon it at a depth of 1168 feet. A depth of 320 feet the first oilatum was encountered and at 640 feet the drill entered another body of sand. Neither was of sufficient success to be of commercial value, although the oil was of a very light use. Since the drill left the last stratum of sand the formation has been altering between blue clay, watering sand and clay, the water being genuine brine of the ocean. The company has no intention of condoning its property, of which it has several hundred acres, but having exuded considerable capital will give them a chance before resuming work. The company is now negotiating to lease 1000 acres on the north end of its property to a company that has signified its intention of drilling a deep well once. The Capistrano rig is to be built, as in the future the company will have wells drilled by contract. Nasal Catarrh quickly yields to treatment by Ely's Cream Balm, which is agreeably aromatic.

Sears, a groceryman from Los Angeles, and his bride, who was Mrs. Edna Heard of Sacramento, met with a serious accident Tuesday of last week at Santa Ana. The couple had just been married, and started out for a drive. Their horse became frightened at the motor, and the buggy was upset. The bride was dragged for some distance, with the result that the lady's back was wrenched and she was considerably bruised. Sears sustained several bruises about the body. Mrs. Sears was carried to the home of R. M. Hargrave. She recovered sufficiently by evening to take the train with her new-made husband for Los Angeles. Orangethorpe Items.

If you will put from one-fourth to half a teaspoonful in baby's bottle three or four times a day you will soon see a marked improvement. For larger children, from half to a teaspoonful, according to age, dissolved in their milk, if you so desire, will very soon show its great nourishing power. If the mother's milk does not nourish the baby, she needs the emulsion. It will show an effect at once both upon mother and child. 50c. and $1.00, all druggists. SCOTT & BOWNE, Chemists, New York.
