The manufacture of the news print paper of the country was the subject of inquiry on the part of the Industrial Commission at Washington some days ago, John Norris, business manager of the New York Times, being the witness. Norris devoted his attention especially to the International Paper company. "I will assert," he said, "that the International Paper company has failed in every expectation it held out to the newspapers and to the public. The cost of manufacture is greater under consolidation than under individual ownership of the largest paper mills. The economics which were to be obtained under the consolidated management have not been realized. The export trade has fallen off, or at least has not increased, though that was to be the strong feature of the consolidated company's effort. The promised policy of enlightened self-interest has been abandoned, and the net result to newspaper publishers has been an increase of over $4,800,000 per annum in the cost of news print paper."
He placed the output of news print paper at $26,000,000 per year. Norris said the president of the consolidation is paid $50,000 a year, and managers' salaries were increased from $7500 to $15,000. There also has been a vast addition to the spruce lands owned by the company, the area secured in the United States bringing the aggregate up to 1600 square miles, while 2000 square miles of land are controlled in Canada. There had likewise been an increase in freight charges. All told he placed the enhancement of the cost of producing paper at $3 per ton.
He knew of two newspapers which were paying an increase of $150,000 annually on the paper used by them. Mr. Norris wrote the daily output of NEWBERRY'S INIQUITY.
From the Orange Post.
The Post publishes elsewhere in this number quite a full synopsis of the bill in equity of the Rincon Water and Power company against the Anaheim Union Water company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company.
As previously intimated, most people believe the incorporation of the Rincon company in Delaware and the listing of a lot of disinterested capitalists as directors is a subterfuge to dodge the state courts and frighten the defendants into a compromise. That these capitalists are nothing but figureheads and that Newberry is the real plaintiff is virtually admitted in the complaint as follows:
"And your orator further shows to your honors that the parties to said action (the Jurupa suit) and the matters in issue therein were the same as in this suit." That is to say, J. R. Newberry in the Jurupa suit was the same J. R. Newberry as in this suit, and the capitalists were in neither one.
The commencement of this suit, without provocation, by the upper users against the lower users, is of a piece with the wolf's accusation against the lamb further down the stream for muddying the water where the wolf stood. The bibulous wolf at Rincon, fearing that the lamb at Bedrock Crossing might prove to be a ram and butt him in the rear while he was imbibing from the stream, has asked the court to tether the sheep so as to prevent any interference with his wolfish proceedings.
In other words, the Rincon Water and Power company, having serious doubts about its ability to maintain its preposterous claims, decided to risk no money in irrigation works until its so-called rights had been passed upon by the court.
Another strange feature of this suit is the attempt to get a title to something that is largely hypothetical, a mere figment of the brain. Newberry might just as well file on the waters of the river Styx and then rob them of the water from its stockholders, which includes Newberry solus.
The question might be passing how much water they claim by its notices. The notices called for 30,000 and it is alleged that this impaired was transferred to con company. The next notices called for 30,000 in name of that company, plaintiff fear that the firm might have lapsed by reason of development being timely and uninterruptedly pled with only one man cutting did it think, with Mrs. M. Hoosier schoolmaster, that as well git a plenty while if notices, claims and treat give title to water over every vested right and title Rincon Water and Power will possess 30,000 inches—one else posts notices, and makes transfers, and another fallacy set forth.
"Bill of Iniqity," to impress credibility of the court, is taking out of the percolation in said real estate conveyor orator as aforesaid, and that of water filed upon by said and your orator, as aforesaid thereof by your orator, as said notices of intended would in no way interfere diminish the supply of water the defendants are entitled from said stream and used known, there is not a single in the canyon that would do a statement. Whatever k might be found in low original formation and run the stream, there certainly colating water in land may bordering upon the river Newberry ranch; and if face water were removed land, the surface water stream would immediately place, to be in turn put Real percolating water but little in supplying a tem, although it might be domestic purposes and then
from $7500 to $15,000. There also has been a vast addition to the spruce lands owned by the company, the area secured in the United States bringing the aggregate up to 1600 square miles, while 2000 square miles of land are controlled in Canada. There had likewise been an increase in freight charges. All told he placed the enhancement of the cost of producing paper at $3 per ton.
He knew of two newspapers which were paying an increase of $150,000 annually on the paper used by them. Mr. Norris gave the daily output of news print paper at 2055 tons, of which the International company furnished 1200 tons, while the mills of the company have a capacity of 1576 tons per day, and said that there was a constant increase of producing capacity outside that company, notwithstanding the boast of the International company that it owned all paper water powers and all available spruce lands.
Mr. Norris attributed the recent increase in the price of the paper to four causes; namely, to the Spanish war, the South African war, the drought of 1899 and 1900 and the attempt of the International company to monopolize the spruce lands. To meet the last difficulty he suggested that trade relations with Canada should be promoted in order that the practically inexhaustible pulp supply of that company might be drawn upon. "We should," he said, "adopt the plan which President McKinley has advocated, of remitting those taxes which experience has shown to be most burdensome to the industries of the people."
He asserts that the International company had opposed Canadian reciprocity, and that the result had been Canadian reprisals. He advocated the removal of the tariff on wood pulp as in the interest of all classes.
He would have been a bold man who would have predicted a quarter of a century ago that the United States would stand in the first place among the nations in the value of its exports by the end of the century. In 1875 the exports of domestic products were $1,087,000,000 for Great Britain and Ireland, 747,000,000 for France, $607,000,000 for Germany, and $497,000,000 for the United States. In the year 1900 the account stood thus, placing the counties as before, in the order of the extent of their shipments: The United States, $1,453,000,000; Great Britain and Ireland, $1,418,000,000; Germany, $1,050,000,000; France, $787,000,000.
Thus, at the end of the nineteenth century, the United States, which was fourth on the list of exporting countries twenty-five years ago, had reached the first place, with the United Kingdom second, Germany third, and France fourth. Germany made a very handsome gain in the quarter of a century, passing France in the race. Germany's increase, in
ence with his wolfish proceedings. In other words, the Rincon Water and Power company, having serious doubts about its ability to maintain its preposterous claims, decided to risk no money in irrigation works until its so-called rights had been passed upon by the court.
Another strange feature of this suit is the attempt to get a title to something that is largely hypothetical, a mere figment of the brain. Newberry might just as well file on the waters of the river Styx and then ask the Supreme Court of the Universe to confirm his title as to ask any court to award to him all the subterranean water, underflow, percolating water, seepage, water stored in gravel, water returning from irrigation, leakage, water turning to vapor, and any other kind of moisture found in the canyon, whether under the surface on the surface or over the surface. Besides suing for title to something that may or may not exist, in advance of either knowledge or possession of the same, this Rincon company ignores the upper riparian owners who are in position to intercept the water before it reaches the proposed point of diversion, and jumps upon the lower riparian owners, who can get only the water that is allowed to pass such point.
The various steps in this water scheme will illustrate the growth of covetousness when unchecked by right principles. Newberry first commenced to claim a part of the water of the Santa Ana river, because such part flowed over his land into the stream. Then he determined to acquire a further interest in the river by filing notices of appropriation of 10,000 inches for irrigation and 10,000 inches for generating power, regardless of the fact that all of the water had been utilized during each irrigating season, for a generation or more. The intimation was made that the latter 10,000 inches would be allowed to decend to the lower irrigators after it had served its purpose for generating power. Now the gentleman comes forward, masquerading as an incorporated company, and claims 15,000 inches for irrigation, and 15,000 inches for power purposes; and lest the inference should be drawn again that the appropriation for power purposes could be used afterwards by others for irrigation, an absolute claim for 30,000 inches is made in his "Bill of Inquiry." That is to say, if the lower riparian owners get any use of that 30,000 inches, or any part of it, that they must buy the privilege of Newberry. It is probably best that the courts should pass upon this whole matter soon for Newberry continues to

Indicated the river itself completely utilized every defendants without satisfies wants; hence none of that be taken out without their supply. By the view formation of the river can be no underflow or upland stream; unless it be art sand and gravel, forming of the river contain a small amount of water in saturation while finding its way down in contact with and sup flow on the surface. Thus such water is inconsistent would make a sorry show ply a large system; but it part of the stream and withdrawn without diminishing surface flow. As to the defendants might possess plaintiff to put up a censor copy over the river at a height—provided it did not with rainfall—but not be willing to have any stream removed on that it was the salvage from evaporation. And since down the category of county is no water supply in any canyon that can be removed seriously loss to the defense that too, in proportion to city abstracted. The present any other view of the situation a pretext to enable this party to acquire rights in which it does not now plaintiff can possibly sue desires; then defendants need to pay a good stiff tribunal task master or else earth.
The chance, however, for to succeed is so slim that fairly beset down as an injury. To get the decision of this would have to impose up lead that body, which is tremely difficult to do. appropriation of water from surface or subsurface; being by the court, which is high able, he could only use it watershed of the stream
In the year 1900 the account stood thus, placing the counties as before, in the order of the extent of their shipments: The United States, $1,453,000,000; Great Britain and Ireland, $1,418,000,000; Germany, $1,050,000,000; France, $787,000,000.
Thus, at the end of the nineteenth century, the United States, which was fourth on the list of exporting countries twenty-five years ago, had reached the first place, with the United Kingdom second, Germany third, and France fourth. Germany made a very handsome gain in the quarter of a century, passing France in the race. Germany's increase, in fact, in the time, was more than double that of the United Kingdom. The gains of these four exporting nations were 192 per cent for the United States, 34 per cent for the United Kingdom, 73 per cent for Germany, and 5 per cent for France. None of the other countries of the world come near France in the value of exports of merchandise.
Twenty-five years ago the United States was in the middle of a five years' period of serious industrial and commercial stagnation, beginning with the convulsion of 1873. Yet, in this quarter of a century this country has very nearly tripled the annual value of its exports of merchandise. What has caused this splendid transformation? Republican policy chiefly. In 1875 the Republican party, in the face of the solid opposition of the Democracy, put upon the national statute book, the act under which specie payments were resumed on January 1, 1879, and all the country's currency was brought up to the gold level, and has been held up to that line ever since. By a wise series of tariff acts the Republicans have built up an industrial system which is the envy of all the other counties, and which is now making conquests in all the markets of the world. The Republican party has established the gold standard, thus ending the Democratic panic of 1893; has given the United States the best financial system in the world, and has brought a degree of prosperity and stability to the country such as was never equalized in the past, even in the United States.
A few comparisons between the rival interests of this struggle might help to clear up the ideas of those not familiar with the facts. As to priority of appropriation, that of Anaheim, Orange, Santa Ana and Tustin long antedates that of Newberry; while that by the aborigines in the lower valley probably antedates like appropriations further up. As to quantity appropriated, there never has been a year, during the irrigating season, within the memory of the oldest inhabitants, that the defendants did not take all the water out of the river and cry for more, and that, too, while plaintiff was letting its appropriation lapse by nonusing. The posting of notices on the river can cut no more figure than to post them on any old hereditary homestead; everything up there had long been appropriated to a beneficial use. As to riparian rights, plaintiff has less than 300 acres of riparian land and defendants not less than 25,000 acres. As to the use to which the water is to be put, the defendants are using it to support 2000 homes, with about 10,000 people, while plaintiff wants
The chance, however, for to succeed is so slim that fairly be set down as an imminent To get the decision of that would have to impose upon lead that body, which tremely difficult to do. The appropriation of water from surface or subsurface, being by the court, which is highly able, he could only use its watershed of the stream; its riparian use the water come down to the two oceans. If his claims to percolate should be sustained, which yond belief, the right to would be appurtenant to and Newberry could one water from the land he controls. But the two companies the Durkee ranch of 146 South Riverside Land company's remnant of 1018 lots in Rincon, which almost surrounded Newberry extend up and control them above him. If the co-award percolating water berry's land, it would, in doing the same thing to these companies land. Even if water has its source of little of it comes from therethe surface over where ing water is found. If it should narrow down to for percolating water, then panies, by their wise invest already in position to percolating water in basin, and particularly of supply for the Newberry Hence, under all these cases is not two much to say that Newberry wins or loses in tion, he will never acquire or control of the water on Ana river.
to rob them of the water to enrich its stockholders, which include J. R. Newberry solus.
The question might be asked in passing how much water the plaintiff claims by its notices. The first set of notices called for 30,000 inches and it is alleged that this claim unimpaired was transferred to the Rincon company. The next set of notices called for 30,000 inches in the name of that company. Did the plaintiff fear that the first notices might have lapsed by reason of the work of development being "diligently and uninterruptedly prosecuted" with only one man cutting brush; or did it think, with Mrs. Means in the Hoosier schoolmaster, that it "mout as well git a plenty while a gittin?" If notices, claims and transfers can give title to water over and above every vested right and title, than the Rincon Water and Power company will possess 30,000 inches—until some one else posts notices, files claims and makes transfers, and no longer.
Another fallacy set forth in the "Bill of Iniqity," to impose on the credulity of the court, is "that the taking out of the percolating waters in said real estate conveyed to your orator as aforesaid, and the quantity of water filed upon by said Newberry and your orator, as aforesaid, and use thereof by your orator, as set forth in said notices of intended diversion, would in no way interfere with or diminish the supply of water which the defendants are entitled to divert from said stream and use." So far as known, there is not a single condition in the canyon that would justify such a statement. Whatever kind of water might be found in low mesa land of orginal formation and remote from the stream, there certainly is no percolating water in land made by and bordering upon the river, like the Newberry ranch; and if the subsurface water were removed from such land, the surface water from the stream would immediately take its place, to be in turn pumped out. Real percolating water amounts to but little in supplying a large system, although it might be ample for domestic purposes and to irrigate a
THE NATIONAL GUARD.
Orders Issued for Coming Encampment.
Major General John H. Dickinson has issued the following order concerning the coming encampment of the National Guard of the State at Santa Cruz:
"In obedience to Paragraph IV, G. O. No. 2, c.s. from General Headquarters, State of California, dated March 28th, 1901, the troops of the First Second and Third Brigades of the National Guard of California, will encamp at Santa Cruz, for instruction and drill, commencing with June 15th, 1901, for a period of eight days.
"As a mark of respect and esteem for the Hon. Henry T. Gage, Governor of California, and the Commander-in-Chief of the National Guard, the camp will be known and is hereby designated as 'Camp Gage.'"
"The staff Department of the various organizations of the Guard will be given an opportunity, and required, to perform the duties of their respective positions in every detail, as the same are performed in the army of the United States, so far as it may be practicable to do so, and in due course specific instructions will be issued regarding the various details as to subsistence, transportation, etc., connected with this encampment.
"Every officer and man in the Guard is expected to do his utmost to reader the encampment a successful one is the gaining of military information and knowledge, and in this way, repaying the people of our State for the support and countenance which they have always given us."
"Brigade, Regimental and Company Commanders will immediately upon receipt of this order, report in detail:
a. The number of officers age men who will probably attend the encampment; the number of horses required, and do you wish to bring horses with you or hire them at Santa Cruz.
b. The number of tents, wall, shelter and other kinds, and their sizes, available for use in each command for this encampment.
c. The number of blankets and blanket bags available for use in each command.
d. The extent to which you are supplied with cooking utensils, and mess outfits for your respective commands.
These reports will be forwarded to the respective Brigade Headquarters and immediately forwarded from there to Division Headquarters, and as this information is important and absolutely necessary for the purpose of making inquiries about these matters."
WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
Prospects for Deciduous Crops are Looking Better.
Neally normal temperatures have prevailed in all parts of the State during the week. Light rain has fallen on the northwest coast, and fogs have prevailed in some sections. Dry northerly winds have continued most of the week. There have been no injurious frosts.
Early sown grain is still in fair conditions, but would be improved by rain. The continued dry weather and northerly winds are seriously affecting late sow grain, which in some places is turning yellow and will be a failure if raindoes not come soon. Haying is in progress in nearly all sections; the yield is sad to be unusually heavy and the quality excellent. Work in hop fields is progressing. Pasturage is very scarce in many places and needs rain. Thesoil has become too dry for cultivation in some sections, and the planting of sugar beets will be considerably retarded. Vegetables are generally in good condition.
The prospect for a fair crop of deciduous fruits appears to be better than at this time last week, many sections reporting that the damage done by frost in April is not so great as has been estimated, and that with the exception of apricots, and possibly prunes in some localities, there will be almost an average yield. Grapes are also in better condition than had been reported, and are remarkably thrifty in some sections. Olive pickling has commenced in the vicinity of San Diego. Oranges are in good condition.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
The weather has been partly cloudy during the week, with fogs along the coast, considerably benefiting grain and pasturage. Warm, dry weather in the interior has been favorable for haying, which has progressed rapidly; the hay crop is very heavy. Early sown grain is in fair condition, and in some sections will yield a good crop. Late sown wheat and barley are drying up, and will yield poor crops unless rain falls soon. At Anaheim apricots will be nearly a total failure. Peaches will yield about half the usual crop. Olive pickling has commenced; the yield is larger than last season's. Oranges look well. Walnuts are in good condition.

might be found in low mesa land of orginal formation and remote from the stream, there certainly is no percolating water in land made by and bordering upon the river, like the Newberry ranch; and if the subsurface water were removed from such land, the surface water from the stream would immediately take its place, to be in turn pumped out. Real percolating water amounts to but little in supplying a large system, although it might be ample for domestic purposes and to irrigate a small area where found. As already indicated the river itself has been completely utilized every season by defendants without satisfying their wants; hence none of that water can be taken out without diminishing their supply. By the very nature of the formation of the river bed there can be no underflow or underground stream, unless it be artesian. The sand and gravel, forming the bed of the river, contain a small quantity of water in saturation which is slowly finding its way down the canyon in contact with and supporting the flow on the surface. The amount of such water is inconsiderable and would make a sorry showing to supply a large system; but it is really a part of the stream and cannot be withdrawn without diminishing the surface flow. As to the evaporation, defendants might possibly permit plaintiff to put up a cendencing canopy over the river at a reasonable height—provided it did not interfere with the rainfall—; but they would not be willing to have any portion of the stream removed on the pretense that it was the salvage from the loss by evaporation. And so all along down the category of claims, there is no water supply in any form in the canyon that can be removed without serious loss to the defendants, and that, too, in proportion to the quantity abstracted. The presentation of any other view of the situation is but a pretext to enable this Rincon company to acquire rights in the river, which it does not now possess. If plaintiff can possibly succeed in its desires, then defendants may prepare to pay a good stiff tribute to the task master or else get off the earth.
The chance, however, for Newberry to succeed is so slim that it might fairly be set down as an impossibility. To get the decision of the court he would have to impose upon and mislead that body, which will be extremely difficult to do. Should his appropriation of water from the river, surface or subsurface, be recognized by the court, which is highly improbable, he could only use it within the watershed of the stream; and after

The chance, however, for Newberry to succeed is so slim that it might fairly be set down as an impossibility. To get the decision of the court he would have to impose upon and mislead that body, which will be extremely difficult to do. Should his appropriation of water from the river, surface or subsurface, be recognized by the court, which is highly improbable, he could only use it within the watershed of the stream; and after its riparian use the water would come down to the two companies. If his claims to percolating water should be sustained, which seems beyond belief, the right to such water would be appurtenant to the land and Newberry could only sell the water from the land he owns or controls. But the two companies own the Durkee ranch of 1466 acres, the South Riverside Land and Water company’s remnant of 107 acres and 18 lots in Rincon, which holdings almost surrounded Newberry’s and extend up and control the river far above him. If the court should award percolating water to Newberry’s land, it would, in all fairness, do the same thing to the two water companies land. Even percolating water has its source of supply; very little of it comes from the rainfall on the surface over where the percolating water is found. If the contest should narrow down to a struggle for percolating water, the two companies, by their wise investments, are already in position to tap all the percolating water in the Rincon basin, and particularly the sources of supply for the Newberry ranch Hence, under all these conditions, it is not two much to say that, whether Newberry wins or loses in his litigation, he will never acquire possession or control of the water of the Santa Ana river.
