Every owner of property in the city and vicinity, as well as every well-wisher of the community's progress, should make it a point to confer with the committee soliciting subscriptions for the sanitarium, and append his signature to the lists for as large an amount as his finances will permit. The committee is deserving of lasting credit for the excellent work already accomplished; but those who have not yet contributed have it in their power to assist it greatly by promptly adding their names to the lists. If the sanitarium shall fortunately come to Anaheim, as now seems probable, it will mean the erection, within six months, of a four-story building at a cost of $60,000; the inauguration of a steam laundry, as well as extensive buildings for the making of health foods necessary in the work of that institution. These will give employment to a hundred people, and will cause to be distributed thousands of dollars among the laboring classes. At Battle Creek, Mich., property of this institution is valued at upward of $3,000,000. Property values in that city have increased thirty per cent as a result of the establishment of the sanitarium there, and more attention, more travel and more business have been attracted thither than ever before in the history of the place. These results are bound to be attained here if we succeed in securing this new enterprise. The committee of managers who visited Anaheim some days ago expressed themselves as being highly gratified at what they saw, and during the week announcement of the fact has been AMUSING PAPER'S PIPE DREAM Effectual Disproof of a Silly Statement that Commissions Lurked in the Del Campo Transfer The following letter from T. L. Duque of Los Angeles, President of the Main-street Savings Bank (owner of the Del Campo property in this city) would seem to quite effectually dispel the truthfulness of the woozy yarn appearing in an anonymous publication that a number of highly respected citizens of Anaheim, all of whom are among the largest contributors to the fund for the purchase of the hotel property, sought to reap a large commission through the transfer. Of course no one believed the story—the standing of the gentlemen precluded that, even if the character of the publication did not. Messrs. H. Cahen and H. A. Dickel, two of the gentlemen attacked, and than whom there are no more highly respected citizens in the community, took the matter up, with the result that the following reply, totally disproving the ridiculous story, has been received. The original is on file in this office, and may be seen by any doubting Thomas in the community: MAIN-STREET SAVINGS BANK, LOS ANGELES, Oct. 21, 1901. Messrs. H. Cahen and H. A. Dickel, Anaheim, Cal.—Gentlemen: My attention has been called to the issues of the Orange County Plain Dealer of October 12th and 19th; containing attacks upon you, the gist of the allegations being that you, together with Mr. Melrose, were to be paid a commission for effecting the sale of the Del Campo tract at the price of $8500. The charge is absolutely untrue. I stated to you that our price for the property was $9000 if we had to pay a commission, and $8500 if no commission had to be paid. On your assurance that no commission was to be exacted from us, I gave you an option on the place for the sum stated. At no time did you, or either of you, by word or hint, ask anything for your services; but, on the contrary, as I have before stated, you expressly disclaimed any desire... These results are bound to be attained here if we succeed in securing this new enterprise. The committee of managers who visited Anaheim some days ago expressed themselves as being highly gratified at what they saw, and during the week announcement of the fact has been given out that if $7,000 can be raised to purchase necessary grounds and buildings, the sanitarium will be located here. Yesterday the amount of collections rose to a point where it came near touching the $6,000 mark. Let us put shoulders to the wheel and raise the other $1,000 before the week is out. Somehow the managers of the sanitarium had acquired the idea that we raised no fruits or vegetables here. This was very satisfactorily disproved by arranging a superb exhibit of these products of the soil for their inspection. The fact is that the section about Anaheim raises more fruits, berries and vegetables than any other section of California. Our products range from strawberries to potatoes, from apricots to green corn. It takes in the whole list of citrus and deciduous fruits, nuts, raisins, grapes, melons, berries, celery, tomatoes, potatoes, green corn, green peas, string beans, peppers, and a score of other products, which may be procured cheaper and fresher here than in any other place in the State. The markets of Los Angeles, San Diego and other cities are stocked from our farms, and last summer's campers at Long Beach relied almost exclusively upon hucksters from this section for these articles. The excellence of our water and the salubrity of the climate make this the ideal resort for health recuperation. The Del Campo hotel offers an available site for beginning operations. It rests with our people to say whether we shall get into the procession and grow along with the other progressive Southern California cities. Hunt up the subscription committee, and add your name to the list if you have not already done so. Since the Seattle assay office was opened, July 15, 1898, there has been received there gold of the value of $52,730,579.45. From the Klondike mines most of this gold has come, though some of it was from Washington and British Columbia. Buried Forest in the Arctic. On Richard Dougherty's claim at the mouth of Turner Creek, near Nome, there is a buried forest. Trees 100 feet long have been uncovered. Some are in an excellent state of preservation, but others are much decayed. The wood resembles California redwood, and some of the trees are exceedingly large. This was once a tropical or semitropical climate, and ages ago the mammoth roamed through the wooded plains and helped himself to the luxuriant vegetation. Near this buried forest elephant tusks, deer horns and mammoth tusks have been found. A clear, sparkling soda spring bubbles up in the same vicinity, and animal-travel many miles to drink its waters, which are pleasant to the taste and possess excellent medical properties. The trunk of a tree 9 feet in diameter at the butt, 6 feet in diameter at the top where it had been broken off, and 80 feet long was found recently on Jones & Emerson's claim on Quartz Creek. It was 30 feet beneath the surface. The tree was in a fairly good state of preservation. Samples of the wood were brought to Nome by A. H. Jose. The wood resembles cedar and is light in weight, but dark in color, probably from having lain so long under ground. The bark, which resembled fir, was at least 14 inches thick. A gentleman connected with the United States geological survey, who was on Quartz Creek, examined the tree, but could not determine to what species it belonged. The charge is absolutely untrue. I stated to you that our price for the property was $9000 if we had to pay a commission, and $8500 if no commission had to be paid. On your assurance that no commission was to be exacted from us, I gave you an option on the place for the sum stated. At no time did you, or either of you, by word or hint, ask anything for your services; but, on the contrary, as I have before stated, you expressly disclaimed any desire for commissions or reward in the transaction. It is true we subsequently reduced our offer to the Chamber of Commerce to $7000. This was done after consultation with our Board of Directors, and against my wish and desire; the board, after mature discussion, deciding for reasons satisfactory to themselves that they would sell the property for that price, for the purpose only for which it is sought by the Chamber of Commerce. So far as Mr. Melrose is concerned, I do not know the gentleman, and have never had any communication with him, directly or indirectly, on this or any other subject. So that the charge made against him in the newspaper is as baseless as that made against yourselves. Yours truly, T. L. Duque, President Main-st Savings Bank. Buried Forest in the Arctic.

From the Klondike mines most of this gold has come, though some of it was from Washington and British Columbia. And yet those who thoroughly know the conditions of the Klondike and of Alaska say that the surface of the great mineral district has just been scratched and that there are mines there incomparably richer than any the world has ever known. Of the richness of the gold fields the records of the assay office furnish irrefutable evidence. Up to the close of business on October 17, 19,029 deposits have been made of 3,256,104.51 troy ounces of gold dust and gold bullion, having a commercial value of $52,730,579.45. This year the returns of the mining camps have been slower than they were last year. The season all round has been later. Therefore there have not been so many deposits as there were at this time last year, but when the records of the office are compiled for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1902, it is expected a gain over last year will be shown. The deposits at the assay office since the beginning of the official year are given as follows: 1901—July ... $3,773,680.72 August ... 2,564,279.26 September ... 1,990,559.08 October ... 2,765,745.10 Total ... $11,094,264.16 The figures for October are given up to the close of the day's business of the 17th. G.A. Whidden of Santa Ana was in town one day last week. He has recently returned from a visit to the Beaumont oil fields, and reports oil excitement at its height in that neighborhood. Some of the wells produce 30,000 barrels per day. Samples of the wood were brought to Nome by A. H. Jose. The wood resembles cedar and is light in weight, but dark in color, probably from having lain so long under ground. The bark, which resembled fir, was at least 14 inches thick. A gentleman connected with the United States geological survey, who was on Quartz Creek, examined the tree, but could not determine to what species it belonged. The jawbone and teeth of some prehistoric animal were found in the roots of this prehistoric tree. The jawbone was larger than that of a horse. It will be sent to the Smithsonian Institution, Washington. California Wines Win. BREMEN, Oct. 11.—California wines have gained a complete victory over German prejudice. Only a few years ago German wine dealers and wine drinkers spoke with contempt of American vintages, but now the American product has become regularly a large article of import into Germany. One of the leading merchants of this city said recently: "I have completed arrangements for handling American wines on a very large scale. I find that California clarets and port wines are excellent and unadulterated, far surpassing in quality the middle-priced Bordeaux wines. In a little while our exclusive clubs of military and naval officers will be drinking the products not of the Rhine but of the Pacific coast." Walnuts in European Markets. Secretary Goodwin of the Pacific Commercial Museum has received a cablegram from United States Consul Chester, who is stationed at Budapest, giving the opening prices for new walnuts as follows: Trannsylvania, 41 cents per pound; Bosnian, 3-10 cents per pound. These figures are of interest to the walnut growers of California. Although there is no great exportation of California walnuts to Europe the price for the foreign nuts shows the Californians the rates they will have to meet in the Eastern markets of the United States. Staples authorizes the state that if the chaps will bring back culls he will give them two saplings nuts, and no questions arise. "I'll bet that fellow, when he covered what was in those sacks a small boy to fire rocks at him."

Eddy 25 IMPERIAL LAND COMPANY Its Extensive Development Work in the Lands of the Colorado Delta Southern California is just developing the most extensive and important irrigation system to be found in Arid America. The location of this enterprise is on the Colorado Delta, and the water for the reclamation of that country is taken from the Colorado river, where the supply is more than abundant. In extent, the land to be reclaimed under this system includes about 500,000 acres in San Diego county, California, and about 300,000 acres across the line in Lower California. The California Development company has charge of this work, which is generally known as the Imperial canal system. In April, 1900, Mr. George Chaffey, founder of Etiwanda and Ontario, in San Bernardino county, Cal., and Mil-dura and Renmark in Australia, concluded arrangements with the California Development company, whereby he was to take absolute control of the enterprise and manage it to a conclusion. In this work he has been ably supported by other members of the company. Work was immediately commenced, and the progress made during the past year and a half has been most remarkable—nothing like it being of record in the irrigation history of this country. A few of the advance steps may be noted as follows: First.—The public domain in that country has been resurveyed, as most of the old stakes and land marks of the government survey had been obliterated. Second.—The Imperial canal has been constructed so that water has now been introduced in the Imperial settlements from the Colorado river in quantities in excess of the demand made by the men who have taken over 100,000 acres of land from the government. Third.—The work of constructing the distributing systems of canals and ditches is progressing rapidly and will be completed as rapidly as they may be needed for distributing water to the land owners who may need it. Fourth.—Although water for irrigation purposes did not reach the Imperial settlements until the middle of June of this year, over two sections of land have been planted to crops— PERSONAL MENTION Mrs. Dr. Johnston has returned from a visit to relatives and friends in Canada. A E Strehle is paying a visit to his brother, C. A Strehle. He is from Germany, and has lately returned from a trip to Australia. He may remain permanently. Frank Schwentker has been visiting with his parents during the week. Frank is located at Fresno, in the employ of the Santa Fe Railway company. He notes many evidences of advancement hereabout since his former visit, a year ago. Frank Eastman has received an offer from a San Francisco letter-carrier to trade his route on the rural delivery for one in the northern metropolis paying $1,000 yearly. Frank thinks there is no place like home, and has rejected the offer. Duke Paschall has returned from Oxnard. He states the supervisors have passed an ordinance closing saloons at 11, and prohibiting games. It is too slow a town for him, he says. He contemplates locating in Arizona. Henry J. Boege was married in Los Angeles on Saturday to Miss Louise Wagenbach of that city. Bride and groom have been spending the week in town with relatives and friends. They leave shortly for a two months’ honey moon trip to New York. Revs. Clark and Jessee of the Pentecost band were in town on Tuesday making arrangements for the opening of a mission where revival services will be held during the winter. They are thinking of renting the old Independent office and holding nightly exercises and twice on Sunday. Mrs John Hunter, who was run down and at first thought to be fatally injured by Conductor Clegg’s train on the Santa Fe road on Tuesday, October 15th, continues to improve, and hopes are entertained for her complete recovery. The railroad’s adjuster has been here to adjust her losses. Probably a heavy suit for damages will be the result of the accident. Chester Holcomb and George Case have departed for Indio, where they have taken up land and will embark in the business of growing early fruits, melons and vegetables for the Eastern market. Mrs. Holcomb and baby remain with her father, J. P. Zeyn, in this city until next year. The boys took two carloads of freight with them, and will build a house and sink an artesian well.

Fourth. Although water for irrigation purposes did not reach the Imperial settlements until the middle of June of this year, over two sections of land have been planted to crops—mostly sorghum and millet for feed—and these crops have grown beyond the most sanguine expectations of all parties interested, some of the sorghum having been already harvested and yielding ten tons of cured feed to the acre. Fifth. A school district has been established, and a school is now in operation with a competent teacher, and over twenty scholars under a temporary brush shade supported by nine posts. This temporary structure was made because the law required the school to be opened by a certain date and there was not time to build a school house. Sixth. A large number of families are now moving into the settlements, taking in teams to work on the canal system for a while, afterwards to be used in putting in crops and improving the lands of the settlers. Seventh. A railroad is to be next on the program. The Los Angeles, Imperial and Arizona Railway company is being incorporated to build a standard guage railroad from Yuma through the Imperial settlements in a northwesterly direction to Los Angeles, or to a connection with some other line of railroad that will give entrance to Los Angeles under favorable conditions. On this line of railroad are located the towns of Imperial, Paringa and Calexico. This company also proposes to construct a branch line from the town of Imperial in a northerly direction through the town of Ranchito to a connection with the Southern Pacific; also a branch line from the town of Calexico in a southern direction to the head of the Gulf of California; also a branch line from the town of Ranchita down through the Eastside settlement on the east side of Carter river through the towns of Eastside and Ganges, to a connection with the main line at Imperial, or some point on the main line south of Imperial. Eighth. From the best information obtainable, there will be 50,000 acres of land under the Imperial canal system put under cultivation during the coming season. Ninth. The towns of Calexico and Imperial are already piatted and the lots in these towns are now on the market. What of the products? It is definitely known that alfalfa, barley and wheat will do as well here as anywhere; that as a cattle and hog country, no section will produce more feed for converting cattle and hogs into beef and pork. This will be the staple settlements from the Colorado river in quantities in excess of the demand made by the men who have taken over 100,000 acres of land from the government. Third.

On arising somearnings ago and going to his walewarehouse, he found that thieves paid a visit to his place during the night and made away with two the sacks of culls.

They carried the culls from the warehouse through the orchard the far end of the lot to the road, where a horse and wagon had been ridden. The tracks could be plainly seen. Staples authorizes the statement that if the chaps will bring back the nuts he will give them two sacks of good nuts, and no questions asked.
