Agent. ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 1902. Editorial Note and Comment The Orange News, I observe, true to its principles of hitting a Republican head wherever it sees it, prints in its last issue the following absurd story about Roosevelt, which had for several days been effectually stamped as a fake pure and simple before its appearance in that paper: It is reported that President Roosevelt administered a severe rebuke to General Miles at the executive mansion Saturday, Dec. 21, for his public expressions in the Schley case. The incident is reported as follows: "Glancing hastily around him, and catching sight of Miles, the President walked up to him rapidly, with evidences of excitement in his whole demeanor. Placing himself squarely before the aged and white-haired lieutenant-general of the army, he waved his arms energetically and then raised his finger nigely under the nose of Miles. "I will have you know," said the President in a loud voice, 'I will not allow you to criticise executive and departmental acts. I don't care who you are. I will not stand it and you will find out that I am going to stop this sort of thing." "The distinguished witnesses of the vigorous reprimand were further astounded by what followed. The President had grown flushed and was visibly restraining himself from a violent outburst of wrath only by an extreme effort. Then he turned upon Miles again. Uplifting his arm, he shook it almost furiously in the general's face. 'I'll show you,' he said, and turned his back upon him." President Roosevelt will sink rapidly in public estimation if he makes many such exhibitions of his temper RICH GOLD FIELDS IN SAN GABRIEL CANYON A Returned Miner Reports Drscovery of Valuable Placer Claims—Hydraulic Mining in Canyon 35 Years Ago. Correspondence of the Gazette. AZUSA, Cal., Jan. 4, 1902. Since the earliest settlements of California Lytle creek, San Antonia creek, San Dimas creek and the San Gabriel river canyons have given up to the world's market a goodly supply of coarse gold, of a fineness ranging from $17.50 to $18 per ounce for the gold, as found in metallic form. The fine brown or rusty gold has never been saved in the past placer workings. From such data as is available it is known that the placer gold known to have been marketed has been something more than $3,500,000. This is an estimated figure from various reliable resources. How much more has not been sold in market is not known, but quite likely a very large sum. thirty-five years ago, both in San Gabriel and Lytle creek canyons, there were hydraulic places in operation. Their yield was entirely from the old upper channels and in loose gold, the fine brown and rusty gold having escaped in these workings then. After these hydraulic operations closed down, the product has been from single hand operations, in both the upper and lower channels of these streams, and in amount about $30,000 per annum as a fair average, some years more and some less, the total yield of all workings being probably $3,500,000. The direct source of this gold remained a mystery and a secret of the rocks forming the divide between Little or North Baldy mountains, that being an erupted belt and volcanic in character, high and isolated steep spurs or ridges leading off to the main canyons, with numerous side canyons. The great main about $8 per ton and the lowest about 50 cents per ton. What is this ore body and field below the surface rocks? That is the question. Fifty-two hundred acres of it have been located as a placer field, and across these locations by the same parties twelve lode locations have been taken up and surveyed, and all has been duly incorporated. This work has been quietly done in the last sixty days by a party of Orange county people. In his explorations up at the head of the San Gabriel river the party has found that the serpentine rocks and associate iron conglomerate uplifts on runs past on to east-southeast, up over the Baldy divide and on into the Lytle creek regions, and it is understood that they are now exploring the country at the headwaters of Lytle creek, where the north fork joins the Lytle creek, Middle and South forks. They have purchased some claims thereabouts, including that from which the nine pounds of gold nuggets were taken by the Sweed Nelson two years ago, and last fall $110 more of them. In weight these nuggets run from $80 pieces down to 50 cent pieces, $17.25 per ounce find. Some have claimed that this gold came from a claim located about three fourths of a mile below the junction of Cattle canyon and the San Gabriel river. The gold of both these placeres though eighteen miles apart, looks just alike as to size and fineness of the gold. This region of country, at the head of San Gabriel river and Lytle creeks is an ideal lode and placer mining region. There is an abundance of water and timber, and now that the lode field ores have been found and some it taken up, there is an indication that mining for gold will be commenced Owl camp. The Big Horn mines on Little Bald are working full crews and shifts miners on the mines. The roadway being cut out of solid rock from tiers of Little Bald. The distinguished witnesses of the vigorous reprimand were further astounded by what followed. The President had grown flushed and was visibly restraining himself from a violent outburst of wrath only by an extreme effort. Then he turned upon Miles again. Uplifting his arm, he shook it almost furiously in the general's face. 'I'll show you,' he said, and turned his back upon him. President Roosevelt will sink rapidly in public estimation if he makes many such exhibitions of his temper in public. Had The News been as anxious to purvey accurate information to its readers, as it seems to be anxious to cast this first slur upon the President, it would have saved itself the trouble of publishing a stupid effusion which had been stamped as a fake before its appearance in its columns. Immediately after the public reprimand of Miles by Secretary Root, he took a train for New York, and it was thus quite impossible for the President to read the riot act to him in the manner stated. But the story was promptly stamped as untruthful, and it has been accepted as such by all. It looks as if nearly all of the present incumbents in the State offices would be candidates for renomination, except Root, Clerk of the Supreme Court, whose sporting proclivities have killed him politically. Controller Colgan has held office three terms and may decide to quit. But Secretary of State Curry, Attorney General Ford, Treasurer Reeves, Superintendent of Schools Kirk, Surveyor Wright and State Printer Johnson are all out for another term. Johnson has recently visited Southern California and Curry is down in this section now, taking a casual look at his political fences. The question of Lieutenant Governor will of course be determined largely by the geography of the nominee for Governor. It is generally conceded that Gage can be nominated if he wants to be, and if he doesn't want to be, there will be something doing directly—enough certainly to make things interesting. Riverside Loses The Supreme Court denied the application filed by the attorneys for Riverside county, asking for a re-hearing in the county division suit against San Bernardino and the litigation which has been in the courts for years, and the occasion of no little bitterness on each side of the county line, is at an end. The Supreme Court has passed upon the merits of the case, and has now said that its former decision was find out that I am going to stop this sort of thing.

The Supreme Court has passed upon the merits of the case, and has now said that its former decision was good law, and that it shall not be again brought before the court. This finally disposes of the suit brought by Riverside county, for $132,000. A month ago the Supreme Court, in a unanimous opinion, decided that there was no foundation for the claims set up by Riverside and pointed out what the attorneys for San Bernardino had claimed from the outset, that the only place for the Riverside people to look for consolation was the Legislature. The attorneys for Riverside county, J. S. Chapman of Los Angeles and R. E. Houghton of San Francisco, prepared an application for a re-hearing of the case, but it has been disposed of in short order.

ELY BROTHERS, 56 Warren Street, New York The beds are in layers and perpendicular streaks loaded with shot placer gold, to all appearances, and also with fine brown or rusty gold in small and numerous pockets. Millions and millions of tons of this conglomerate gold-bearing mass of ore stand hundreds of feet above the 5,000 feet level between Pine gulch and Benson fork, or Owl and Alex gulches, 6,000 feet long. About thirty-one assays of the field show the surface rocks to stand as an average $2.88 gold per ton, the highest rock en route. On the north side of this serpentine uplift comes in or lays parallel an immense long and thick body of iron conglomerates, massive and showing great motion of that mass in some past day, so much so as to polish great surfaces black and bright, and so well done as to present even yet a mirror-like surface in which as in a looking-glass reflections appear. This mass, several miles long, will yield from $3 to $4.50 per ton of fine metallic gold. Immediately adjoining this iron belt, between the head of Rock creek, north of Little Baldy and east by southeastward, up the steep incline of the high divide mountains, is enclosed one of the strange gold fields, the field that has supplied the thirty-six miles of the old and upper channel of the San Gabriel river with all of its coarse metallic placer gold. This peculiar field presents one strange ore body. The field proper is about 1200 feet wide at the west end and 500 at the east end, and is about 4500 feet long. The middle of this length stands up 640 feet above either end. The whole mass is composed of various forms of quartz conglomerates, and interlaced now and then with bands of irony rocks—and iron ore. As in place now, the veins are nearly perpendicular, but its structure plainly shows that this mass was formed by beddings laying them flat. But with the rise of the eruption and serpentine roek dike, the adjoining side then tilted to the north and went down and became as now appears, perpendicular ruins. In fact this field shows plainly a formation by bedding down of some eruptions or old water course. Many pebbles of all sizes are encased and mixed with much broken down quartz.

Desert winds other kind of winds will "Santa Anas" as long as South Florida exists, and whatever visited upon our city through due more to its name than to themselves in our opinion. JAY 9, 1902. SOUTHERN COUNTIES SOLE PRODUCERS OF WALNUTS Essay by Frank F. Kellogg Before California Fruit Growers' Convention, San Francisco, December, 1901. In the language of the late Hon. B. M. Lelong, Secretary of the State Board of Horticulture, in his fifth biennial report, 1895-96, "the walnut is a native of Persia and is supposed to have been introduced into our State by the Franciscan monks during the establishment of the California Missions in 1769." Mr. Lelong's researches show that of the early planting outside of the Missions, the first was made in San Diego, probably in 1843, by the late Colonel J. J. Warner, and that the second planting was made near Calistoga in Napa valley, in 1848, by F. E. Kellogg, sr., deceased. Although planting of walnuts began in the northern part of the State almost as early as in the southern part, climatic conditions were not so favorable, and the southern counties are today almost the sole producers. The early plantings were very small, and it was not until quite recent years that the industry assumed important proportions. Santa Barbara county was the first section of the State to enter upon the business on anything like a large scale, and it also enjoys the distinction of having originated what is now commercially known as the soft shell, and which for many years was known as the Santa Barbara soft shell. The soil required is a deep, sandy loam, with a slight mixture of adobe, with no underlying hardpan, and where the surface water is found at from ten to twenty-five feet in the dry season of the year. The climate best suited to the production of English walnuts is that where the annual rainfall is from fifteen to twenty inches, where frost are very light in winter and spring time, where very hot winds do not preclude them and where there is an farther into the future the possibility that the supply will exceed the demand. And as long as the demand is greater than the supply, there should be no diminution of the satisfactory prices now prevailing. There is only one thing that threatens the decadence of present prices and that is the lack of co-operation on the part of the growers. In this age of shrewd speculation and fierce competition, whatever industry fails to resort to concentration of interest is doomed. Under the high pressure of 20th century methods and conditions, everybody but the farmer has learned that competition is the death of trade and that its life is only found in co-operation, and the time has come when to secure their rights and promote their best interests farmers must unite as other classes have done. The railroads have combined and they are able to fix rates and fares on the principle of charging all the traffic will bear, and the farmers of the United States in consequence thereof, pay enough in excess of just charges on the transportation of their crops to probably build and equip a transcontinental railroad every year. The steel industry has combined, and they are able to pay the president of their combination if we include his commissions, a salary which is more than four times the salary of the president of the United States. The oil industry has combined and the corporation is willing up its wealth by the hundreds of millions. Co-operation seems to permeate the very air we breathe, and all classes of workers except the farmer have caught its inspiration. He has stubbornly refused to co-operate, except in a few instances, and as a result he has become the victim of almost everything, and almost everybody. A good many people imagine that his fot is a highly favored one; that all he has to do is to simply plow the ground and sow the seed and then sleep or recreate himself until the harvest time, and then reap his fields and exchange the products for cash.

The roadway out of solid rock from the ground Little Baldy, about on a with the head of Rock creek, is completed now. From Rock road this road goes down Rock Palmdale station on the Southpacific railroad. It is a good road good grades, and has been made by company operating the Big mines, over which to bring in a camp mill.

LEASE OF RURAL FREE DELIVERY To Have an Increase of $100 Per Year in Mary-Rules Under Which Appointments Will Be Made. W. Machen, superintendent of the free delivery system, says that by end of next year the system will probably embrace 11,500 routes and do as many carriers. By July 1 system will have grown to include 200 routes will be $5,750,000 for cars alone; $600,000 for administrativeoses, and probably $1,150,000 for increase of $100 per year to be used to rural carriers. Within six years the plan is to reach every farm which could reasonably ask benefits of the delivery system. The Civil Service Commission has proved the rules under which appointments of rural free delivery carrs will be made after Feb. 1, 1902. A tral board of examiners, consisting three members, will assist the master-general in making selecions of carriers. Examinations will conducted by special agents of the real free delivery system in towns which the routes will be operated. Political or religious affiliations are not considered by examiners, and the department, under the rules, will not take cognizance of political indorsements. The soil required is a deep, sandy loam, with a slight mixture of adobe, with no underlying hardpan, and where the surface water is found at from ten to twenty-five feet in the dry season of the year. The climate best suited to the production of English walnuts is that where the annual rainfall is from fifteen to twenty inches, where frost are very light in winter and spring time, where very hot winds do not prevail in summer, and where there is an abundance of warm, moist fog during the summer months. Some of these conditions are lacking in every State north and east of us, and only very few counties of this State possess the proper climate, and of these only small portions of them meet the necessary requirements. The peculiar conformation of the coast line and mountain ranges south of Point Conception, together with the modifying influence of the outlying islands, combine to give these favored locations in Southern California a climate that seems to be as perfectly adapted to the walnut as that of Persia itself, its native home. There are three principal varieties in Southern California, known respectively as hard-shell, paper-shell and soft-shell, previously referred to. The most prolific of these varieties is the soft-shell; the trees are the thriftiest, bear the earliest, produce the most abundantly, are the most easily harvested, require the least care and skill to prepare for the market, look the best and command the highest price. The planting, cultivation and general care of the walnut does not differ materially from that of other orchard trees, except that no pruning is required further than to remove the branches which interfere with thorough cultivation. For many years the walnut was considered immune from all diseases and pests, but in the last few years there has appeared in some localities a well defined disease peculiar to it, as it seems to attack no other kind of tree. This disease is giving the growers much uneasiness, as it has thus far defied all efforts at eradication. It does not seriously affect the health of the tree, but only damages or destroys the nuts, acting as a kind of blight. As yet its cause is wholly unknown. Although its ravages have seriously affected only a few localities, it is becoming more or less of a menace to the industry. Government experts, as well as the growers themselves, are making a very careful study of the disease, and it is hoped that they will speedily discover both the cause and cure. The harvesting, grading and bleaching and marketing are all simple, requiring but little skill. The average yield of a good soft-shell orehard in its prime, and under favorable conditions, will exceed one ton per acre, and the average selling price will be in excess of $150 per ton. The net profits per acre will be better than $100. The trees come into profitable bearing at eight years from the planting at their prime at twelve wealth by the hundreds of millions. Cooperation seems to permeate the very air we breathe, and all classes of workers except the farmer have caught its inspiration. He has stubbornly refused to co-operate, except in a few instances, and as a result he has become the victim of almost everything, and almost everybody. A good many people imagine that his fot is a highly favored one; that all he has to do is to simply plow the ground and sow the seed and then sleep or recreate himself until the harvest time, and then reap his fields and exchange the products for cash. But the facts are far different. The chinch bug destroys his wheat, and the grasshoppers and army worms sweep his field. Scale bugs infest his citrus orchard, and the codlin moth his apple trees. All kinds of peddlers, life and fire insurance men, and lightning-rod agents make him their prey. The papers call him a hay-seed, and he becomes a shining mark for the cartoonist. About the only man that extends to him a glad hand is the politician just before election day. Already an appalling number of farms are under mortgage. I am persuaded that unless farmers speedily learn the value of co-operation and fall in line with the universal trend of modern industry, then a gigantic system of tenantry will take place of the once happy independent rural homes, so long the pride and safeguard of the American republic. The raisin growers and citrus fruit exchanges have perhaps advanced the farthest in co-operative effort of any agricultural industries, and the success which they have achieved should be a convincing object lesson not only to the walnut growers, but to all farm industries. The walnut growers themselves have demonstrated the great value of concentration of interests in the marketing of their crops and the maintaining of prices. But thus far they have only met with partial success, owing to the fact that so large a percentage of the growers have it in their power to break the market at any time, which results in a feeling of uncertainty in prices, highly detrimental to the industry. Furthermore, the combination of the associations themselves is very far from being a satisfactory arrangement, for Continued on Fourth page. Help...

They need a little help to get their digestive The Civil Service Commission has approved the rules under which appointments of rural free delivery carriers will be made after Feb. 1, 1902. A central board of examiners, consisting three members, will assist the postmaster-general in making selections of carriers. Examinations will be conducted by special agents of the local free delivery system in towns where the routes will be operated. Political or religious affiliations are not to be considered by examiners, and the department, under the rules, will not take cognizance of political indorsements. Examination is to consist in ascertaining ability of applicants to read and write, with a series of personal questions as to his local acquaintance, physical condition, previous experience, training, length of residence in the community and his ability to furnish required equipment. He must furnish a "sub" when unable to perform the duties of the office and the special agent is required to ascertain his standing in the community. Patrons of the route are entitled to recommend on their petition a number of men who will be acceptable to them and to have at least one of these appointed, should they prove as eligible on examination as other applicants. Appointments are to be limited to men between 17 and 55 years of age, except where applicants are former Union soldiers with good record. The postmaster-general has directed that after Feb. 1, 1902, all rural free delivery carriers should receive their pay checks from one office in each state. Wants Name Changed Santa Ana Herald. In our humble opinion its name [Santa Ana] isn't an advantageous one anyhow and ought to be changed. The name "Santa Ana" has become synonymous with wind and will not improve in that respect. Desert winds or any other kind of winds will be called "Santa Anas" as long as Southern California exists, and whatever injury is visited upon our city through them is due more to its name than to the winds themselves in our opinion.
