"The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL. Editor and Proprietor THURSDAY...FEBRUARY 6, 1902 "If we could only get together and agree to haul all our walnuts to Anaheim and ship over the Southern Pacific," said a Placentia orchardist in town on Saturday, "we could compel the Santa Fe to construct its line to Placentia from Fullerton. I know the two railroads are in a pool, and divide hauls on their freight, but I believe there is no divvy on walnuts. We could compel the construction of both roads, in fact, for as soon as the Santa Fe builds in the Southern Pacific will not be long after them. The trouble with Placentia is that she does nothing for herself; she is always helping outsiders. She helped support Anaheim for years, and now she is the main support of Fullerton. I believe we ought to get together, form a Chamber of Commerce and do something for ourselves." The statement was called forth by instructions of the Postoffice Department at Washington cutting out a number of residents on Placentia avenue from one of the rural-delivery routes from Fullerton. These people should not have been placed upon the route in the first place, it appears, because, in order to serve them, the carrier is obliged to "retrace," which is prohibited by the rules of the service. Moreover the Placentia postoffice is marked for discontinuance, so these residents will find themselves reduced to the necessity of going to Fullerton for their mail, or putting up boxes on a corner some distance removed from their dwellings." people should not have been placed upon the route in the first place, it appears, because, in order to serve them, the carrier is obliged to "retrace," which is prohibited by the rules of the service. Moreover the Placentia postoffice is marked for discontinuance, so these residents will find themselves reduced to the necessity of going to Fullerton for their mail, or putting up boxes on a corner some distance removed from their dwellings. "What we lack at Placentia," said another orchardist, "is unanimity of sentiment. We have too much discord, and whenever one of us starts out to do a thing there are others who get to knocking him instanter. I believe we ought to form a Chamber of Commerce and get together and try to get something for ourselves." While these statements are probably true, nevertheless Placentia is destined, in the not distant future, to be one of the most rapidly growing towns of the county. The Salt Lake railroad has a survey through its avenues, as has also the new electric railway line, and it is well known that both the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe have at different times been upon the point of extending their tracks thither. The construction of either one of these lines would compel the building of the others, for Placentia is one of the most inviting fields as regards freight there exists in Southern California. Its isolation from a railway standpoint is destined to be made a thing of the past before the end of the year, and then we shall see a notable improvement in that neighborhood. An up-country paper professing Republican principles, but which engages itself chiefly with combatting candidates of that party, has recently devoted considerable attention to the gubernatorial situation, and publishes comments upon the ensuing State campaign which it knows full well are based upon false premises. Speaking of Dr. Pardee's candidacy for Governor it says: The announcement that Alameda county will present a candidate for Governor in the person of Dr. George C. Pardee is not likely to complicate the situation in the south. It is true that L. H. Brown and Dr. Pardee, who were candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor in 1898, gracefully swung into line for Gage after the noses of the convention had been counted. Gage's nomination was practically accomplished before either Pardee or Brown retired. The delegates representing counties south of Tehachapi were highly grateful when the convention unanimously nominated people should not have been placed upon the route in the first place, it appears, because, in order to serve them, the carrier is obliged to "retrace," which is prohibited by the rules of the service.

The announcement that Alameda county will present a candidate for Governor in the person of Dr. George C. Pardee is not likely to complicate the situation in the south. It is true that L. H. Brown and Dr. Pardee, who were candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor in 1898, gracefully swung into line for Gage after the noses of the convention had been counted. Gage's nomination was practically accomplished before either Pardee or Brown retired. The delegates representing counties south of Tehachapi were highly grateful when the convention unanimously nominated the candidate of the south and promised on the spot to reciprocate at the next State convention by standing in for a candidate from this section of California. In view of this implied understanding that the south would favor the nomination in 1902 of some aspirant in northern or central California, several well known Republicans insist that Gage's candidacy for renomination is in bad form—that he is bound by considerations of fairness to keep out of the race. Dr. Pardee has himself during the past week declared there was no truth in the report, so persistently circulated in some quarters, that the supporters of Gov. Gage had four years ago agreed to support him for the governorship this year. As a matter of fact there was no such understanding, expressed or implied, although the Alameda delegation, after Pardee's withdrawal, were profuse in their praises of what they called the Doctor's magnanimous act, and more than one of them gave voice to the sentiment that the south should stand by him in the next campaign. That was about the size of the "understanding" now so industriously given voice to by our northern contemporary. Dr. Pardee withdrew from the contest simply because the State convention was an avalanche for Gage. The north had half a dozen candidates—the south had but one. The south went to Sacramento a unit for Gage; the north was split up over this or that candidate. Inasmuch as Pardee had no possible chance of the nomination, it is difficult for this State to Henry T. Scott or San Francisco. He has named a state committee of thirty prominent citizens, who have elected the following officers: George Stone, chairman; W. H. Jordan and J. C. Sims vice-chairmen; P. N. Lilienthal treasurer; J. Steppacher, secretary. It is the purpose of the state committee that local committees be formed in every city and town in the state, to receive and solicit subscriptions. It is desired to enlist the active co-operation of business and professional men, labor and trade unions, employer and employe, public parochial and private schools, colleges and universities, religious, fraternal, patriotic and benevolent associations. Subscriptions are solicited from men, women and children. The postoffice address of each contributor will be forwarded to the national committee and each will in due time receive a souvenir certificate. The national trustees have planned a memorial to be erected at Canton, O., the home of President McKinley, at a cost of $450,000. A fund of $200,000 will be raised in addition which will be invested for the purpose of producing an annual sum for the cost of maintenance. The sum of $650,000 has been apportioned among the different states according to the wealth and population of each; California is asked to contribute $20,000.

"I stuck to my engine, although every joint ached and every nerve was racked with pain," writes C. W. Bellamy, a locomotive fireman, of Burlington, Iowa. "I was weak and pale, without any appetite and all run down. As I was about to give up, I got a bottle of Electric Bitters and after taking it, I felt as well as I ever did in my life."

Upon the iron highway, wreathed in smoke, Or east or west the clanking engine reels, The weary dust spins onward at the strokes Of half a hundred wheels. It comes, the breathless driver staring straight Through misty eyeholes, with the sudden gleam Of burnished dome, and cranks of pondarous weight And clouds of hissing steam. Old countrymen that trudge from new plowed lands And on high bridges stay their weary feet See faces flashed bencath them, waving hands That may not stay to greet. Or slow, with hollow blast and wealthy din, By wide armed signals oreps the laden train. High vans with shuddering jolt and clinking pin And hiss of clattering chain. Wide eyed, affrighted cattle, meek and still, And murky coal for city folk to burn. And dusty blocks hewed from some western hill And wreathed in twisted fern. But, best of all, when, in the sullen night, Along the dim embankment, hung in air, Shoots the red streamer, linked with cheerful light, The wide flung furnace glare Lights the dim hodges and the rolling steam, Then passes and, in narrowing distance, dies, Tracked by the watchful lanterns' lessening gleam— Two red, resentful eyes. —"Lord Vyet and Other Poems" by Arthur Christopher Benson. TROOPS AND DRINK. The Curious Statistics Showing What European Nations Pay For Them. The friends and advocates of "universal peace" and the foes of intemperance and inebriety are pretty generally agreed that the expenses attending war and war armaments and liquid beverages of an intoxicating or exhilarating kind are unduly large. There is an old proverb—it is not a Swiss proverb, of course—to the effect that a man who drinks more than he should "drinks like a Swiss," and it is for this reason, perhaps—and residents of the republic of Switzerland say for no better one—that the fame of residents of Switzerland for sobriety is not as farreaching as the fame of the Scotch, for instance, for frugality. A recent computation which has appeared shows that the annual expenditures of the Swiss for wine, beer, cider and brandy are 175,000,000 francs, six times as much as is spent on the army.

Bowery Was the Resort of Wealth, Beauty and Fashion. A pleasant picture occurs to me of summer progress of the family of Governor Stuyvesant to and from the meeting house, for divine worship in the fort near the Battery, New York," writes Mrs. Burton Harrison in The Ladies' Home Journal, describing When Fashion Graced the Bowery. In a brave coach, drawn by shining horses, is ensconced the governor himself, whose long, laced coat half hides his wooden leg banded with silver. Heears a carefully curled peruke and holds his hat upon his knee, in order to hurt the cool sea breeze that fans his rugged visage. His lady, sitting in state beside him, is, in their staid and phlegmatic community, accounted a brilliant personage; her gown came out from her native Paris, and her silken hood is worn over frizzied and powdered hair; her embroidered hose and high heeled shoes, her rings, bracelets and lockets, with the gorgeously bound book of decorations suspended by a golden chain to her waistband, may be depended upon as models of the very latest modes. Mrs. Bayard, the widowed sister of the governor, occupies a seat in the coaching them. After service in the bare colonial church—where the dominie's sermon, however eloquent, was always brought to an end by three raps from the clerk's trick at the moment when the sands of the hourglass had announced that the treacher's limit of time had been reached—the Stuyvesant party passes out between rows of respectful gazers."

Germany expends, or, more properly, individual Germans expend,$500,000,000 a year, on liquid refreshments, distilled or fermented—chiefly beer and Rhine wine—and $120,000,000 a year on the German army. France expends in a year $500,000,000 on drink, chiefly wine, and $140,000,000 a year on the maintenance of the army of the republic. The Italians expend $250,000,000 a year for liquors, wines and cordials and $55,000,000 for the Italian army, the expenditures being in about the same ratio as in other nations. Austria-Hungarian army costs $70,000,000 a year, or less than one-third of the coat of the liquors consumed in a year. The Russians expend $390,000,000 a year in liquors and $150,000,000 a year, or one-half as much, for the maintenance of the army. England expends $480,000,000 a year on beer, ale, wine, porter, gin, rum and smoky whisky and $90,000,000 a year on the maintenance of the British army. No one knows exactly how much is spent in the United States on liquor in a year, especially in prohibition states. but it is supposed that the whisky taken for medicinal purposes costs each year more than does the maintenance of the regular army.—New York Sun.

One of the prettiest and best pieces of road in Maine passes in front of his retreat.

In 28 years' time he has pounded 900,000 stones and made them ready for road use.The town authorities, recognizing the value of the work,forks have compensated,the man by giving him his tax.

The other ladies are at liberty to follow the hostess' example if they choose." French and English Crusoes. French men of letters have not enough of the audacious spirit of the English, says Henry D. Sedgwick in The Atlantic. They troop to Paris, where they have been accustomed to sit on their classical benches since Paris became the center of France. The romance of Villon is the romance of a Parisian thief. The romance of Ronsard is the romance of the Parisian salon. Montaigne lives on his seigniory while England is topsy curvy with excitement of new knowledge and new feeling. Corneille has the nobleness of a jeune fille. You can measure them all by their ability to plant a colony. Wreck them on a desert island, Villon will pick blackberries, Ronsard will skip stones, Montaigne whittle, Corneille look like a gentleman, and the empire of France will not increase by a hand's breadth. Take a handful of Elizabethan poets, and Sidney would chop, Shakespeare would cook, Jonson dig, Bacon snare, Marlowe catch a wild ass, and in 24 hours they would have a log fort, a score of savage slaves, a windmill, a pinnace, and the cross-of-St. George flying on the tallest tree. The gold cure is a good thing for a tight money market. GRAPE CUTTINGS. Leave orders now. dec 5-1m CHAS. Otto Rust. WAR CORRESPONDENTS. Are They a Detriment to the General Commanding an Army? Everything in a campaign depends upon the general in command, upon his coolness, resourcefulness and rapidity of glance. He may be a man who dislikes correspondents, a dislike they are certain to return, and he feels therefore as if he were perpetually watched in the gravest crises by personal enemies, a feeling which would have been fatal to Marlborough or Eugene of Savoy, the two commanders most remarkable for immovable sang froid. Everybody is not born with the advertising spirit, and there are insects which under a burning glass feel torture instead of that enjoyment of warmth which the operator maintains they ought to feel. Imagine the condition of a general like Frederick the Great, whose main business during three years of his campaign life was to repair defeat, with 50 "correspondents" in his camp reporting every disaster, every preparation and every execution of the incompetent or the unruly! It would be maddening to such a general to know that the distribution of blame or fame did not depend upon himself, but would be taken out of his hands by writers not under his command, who would declare that an attack like that on Speicheren, which almost cost an army corps, was "superb" because it succeeded, or that the purse best general in the army was habitually a little late in issuing his commands. We do most seriously believe that there are officers of the highest merit in the British army from whom the country will never obtain the best service they are capable of performing because of the multitude of reporters in the camps. That is a thought which those who are responsible for armies are bound to ponder, and knowing as they do its truth, we do not wonder that they doubt whether to interest the readers of newspapers is an advantage sufficient to outweigh so many risks.—London Spectator. The Forum of Trajan. A few years ago the forum of Trajan was used as a depositing place for cats which were not wanted, but as it does not present the same facilities of retreat and hiding as the forum of Augustus street boys and others took every opportunity of stoning the unfortunate animals. Finally the authorities, after many complaints, refused to allow any more cats to be thrown there, and in order to get rid of those already living in the forum presented one to each sentry box on the walls of the city. They all, however, speedily disappeared from their new homes, some returning to the foot of Trajan's column, where they were either killed by the street boys or transferred to the forum of Augustus, while others, it was whispered, were sold by the sentries for a few centimes to enterprising young medical students in search of subjects for dissection — Rome Letter. The "Prisoner of Chillon" did not suffer in the cause of liberty. He was a troublesome rogue sent to prison for mischief making and spent his term there in making indecent veres.
