One of the matters of municipal moment to which the city trustees should give early attention is consideration of the propriety of repealing the ordinance imposing a license tax upon fish peddlers. Now that the price of meat has taken another altitudinous advance, the fairest opportunity the overburdened public has of retaliating upon the beef trust is by reveling upon an exclusively fish diet, which is offered so magnificently at our very doors, as it were; but for the fact of this stupid ordinance. Not more than a dozen miles away the ocean teems with the richest and daintiest of delicacies. The seine hauls in the prized silver smelt by the ton. There are, along with these delicious morsels, perch, flounders, croakers, barricouda, mackerel and a score of other delicious varieties of edible delights. The bays afford mullet—that most splendid of all Southern California fish—by the wagonload; and not infrequently the majestic salmon is taken in all his magnificence. Recently we saw at a beach hotel full thirty varieties of fish upon the dinner menu; and all of them, with but few exceptions, taken from the waters not distant two miles from the hostelry. We have this same stately array of piscatorial delights from which to make our selections; and we have clams, mussels, scallops and lobsters without end. Formerly a half dozen fishermen tooted their horns in merry defiance of the beef barons; since the enactment of the ordinance which was devised to afford protection to an infant industry which seems to have gone by the boards, there is nary a solitary toot. The campaigns in which the party has been engaged since the organization of the county, to render notable assistance to its success, and is entitled to the support of the rank and file of his party associates. It had been apprehended that this city would have no candidate to present to the Republican primaries for a county office. Every leader of the party in the county has insisted that Anaheim add to the grace of the ticket by naming at least one candidate upon it. The Mother Colony has steadfastly refused; not that it had not excellent material, or that it was unwilling to play ball with the other strenuous precincts in the county, bristling with candidates as some of them are; but no local man could be prevailed upon to enter the lists. We presume they are all of them making so much money they have no time to devote to politics. But a change has come o'er the spirit of our dreams. After repeated urging, on the part of friends at home and in other precincts in the county, one of our best citizens has been prevailed upon to put business considerations aside and, at the solicitation of his numerous friends, stand for an office to be elected by the people. That man is Charles G. McKinley—good Republican name that—and the office which he has consented to stand for is that of Coroner and Public Administrator. Mr. McKinley is one of our prominent business men, is a gentleman of unblemished character, and is tip-top political timber. We commend him to the Republicans of the county. Probably the only candidate this city will have to present for the consideration of the party, we bespeak for him a kindly reception at the hands of voters. That the Hon. Z. B. West of Santa Ana has exercised a laudable ambition to fill the honorable office of timent of the convention favored making a battle for the judicial and legislative branches of the government and leaving the purely patronage offices as bones of contention for the older organizations. The Eighth district congressional committee is as follows: W. H. Gilstrap of Tulare, A. Bretz of San Luis Obispo, P. M. Hulbert of San Bernardino, A. C. Mouser of San Diego, G. W. Fox of Kern. The suggestion made at Sacramento at a meeting held several weeks ago by Charles W. Kellogg and Placer county that the emblem of the campaign be a broom and that slogan a clean sweep, was heartily seconded by the committee. The committee decided to organize a new county committee in each county in the State and to elect three delegates to the convention Assembly districts. It also decided to nominate at the State convention a competelte State ticket, three candidates for the Supreme Judges, Superior Judges and members of the LA sislature throughout the State, but bar county officers out and lead them to old parties to fight over. The fight made on Governor Gailey by the Los Angeles Times on count of his code commission is the opinion of every one, far-fetching and ill-advised. Anyone who knew George J. Denis, former United States district attorney, W. C. V. Fleet, for twelve years justice of Supreme court, and Judge Freemann author of standard works on law and their secretary, Judge Henning also an author of note, must admit that it is a commission far above average of men. The fact that Supreme court knocked out codes is not a reflection on the Governor or his very capable commission, but another evidence that state constitution ought to be viseed and simplified so that legislation could be done with some degree of certainty. It is wonderful The announcement of M. S. Davis of El Modena, who seeks the Republican nomination for county school superintendent, will be found elsewhere in this issue. Mr. Davis has lived nine years in Orange county. Coming here from Iowa for the benefit of his wife's health, he spent six years upon his ranch in the Santiago foothill tract, and three years ago the health of Mrs. Davis had so far recovered as to permit him to take up his work in the schoolroom again. Since then he has taught successfully in the El Modena school, being principal of the school at that point. Mr. Davis is best known to the Republicans of Orange county, perhaps, in his all but successful contest for nomination, to the office to which he again aspires, in the convention of four years ago. Although he missed the goal of his ambition by only a few votes, he electrified the party by his great run, having canvassed for the office less than a fortnight. Of a quiet and unassuming demeanor, he has preserved the honors of his former campaign to himself, and has recently come in contact with men, who voted for him in that convention, for the first time since his residence in the county. Should he receive the nomination, the rank and file of the party would honor itself by supporting his candidacy. We know not whether he still preserves his qualities as a sprinter politically, but if he do so our advice to his opponents is to keep their eye on Davis, for he will worry the best of them by the time the votes are counted in the fall. Edward R. Amerige, father of Fullerton and one of the best known Republicans of Southern California, has consented to become a candidate Mr McKinley is one of our prominent business men, is a gentleman of unblemished character, and is tip-top political timber. We commend him to the Republicans of the county. Probably the only candidate this city will have to present for the consideration of the party, we bespeak for him a kindly reception at the hands of voters. That the Hon. Z. B. West of Santa Ana has exercised a laudable ambition to fill the honorable office of superior judge of Orange county, may be inferred from the announcement to that effect appearing in another column. Judge West has lived in Orange county since the early part of 1887, and took a prominent part in the campaign terminating in the creation of the county of Orange two years thereafter. He has practiced law for 19 years, and is admitted to practice in the United States district and circuit courts, and the supreme courts of California and Illinois. His practice in the local courts has been conspicuous and creditable to his standing as a lawyer. He is aged 50 years, and has filled one term as district attorney with marked success. He is chairman of the county central committee, and for a period of twelve years has been an active member of that conning tower whence radiates the energy for the party's success throughout the county. From the standpoint of party service he is richly entitled to the honor of his seeking. We have been in many a political campaign with the valiant judge and as often as not it fell out that we looked from different viewpoints at the manner of arriving at certain objects sought to be attained. Though we may have differed with our distinguished friend, his integrity of character, his honesty of purpose was never called in question. We feel that he would fill the office of judge with dignity and grace, and should he receive his party's nomination it will be a pleasant task to further present his claims to the electors of the county. Robert Flock of Santa Ana announces himself as a candidate for assessor, subject to the decision of the voters as expressed at the Republican primaries. Mr. Flock was a candidate for the same office before the last county convention, but missed landing the prize by a few votes. He believes, in common with a majority of Republicans whom we meet, that a reasonable rotation of men in office begets the best service, which is an axiomatic truth. Mr. Flock Supreme court, and Judge Freeman author of standard works on law and their secretary, Judge Hennie also an author of note, must admit that it is a commission far above average of men. The fact that Supreme court knocked out codes is not a reflection on the Clerror or his very capable commission, but another evidence that state constitution ought to be viseed and simplified so that legislation could be done with some degree of certainty. It is wonderful wise some critics become after Supreme court has acted. These critics rouse from their sights and snort out: "I told you so; body ought to have known better than to pass such a law." Frank Ey was over from Santa Ana a day or two ago, a candidate for supervisor—from the Santa district. Frank was not campaign for votes hitherto—he was shaking hands and receiving gratulations on the fact that he in sight of the victory which missed by half a vote in the shot-put.

It is said that he was armed one morning by two balloons for sale of £20, when he saw a bishop to coach. With ready resource he diately saw a loophole for escape turning to the men, he said, "L speak to his lordship, to whom well known, and he will pay them and your charges into the bargain. The balliffs thought they might ture this, as they were within three yards of the coach, and so to the request. Joe boldly advised and took off his hat to the bishop lordship ordered the coach to when Joe whispered to the divining two men were suffering from scruples of conscience that he they would hang themselves, suing that his lordship should invite to his house and promise to them. The bishop agreed, and, to the balliffs, he said, "You two come to me tomorrow morning, will satisfy you." WE know not whether he still preserves his qualities as a sprinter politically, but if he do so our advice to his opponents is to keep their eye on Davis, for he will worry the best of them by the time the votes are counted in the fall. EDWARD R. AMERIGE, father of Fullerton and one of the best known Republicans of Southern California, has consented to become a candidate for the Assembly from the Seventy-sixth district, and is well qualified by education and a knowledge of the requirements of the district to sit in the legislative halls at Sacramento. The man elected to the Assembly from Orange county this year, should he be a Republican, and we hope he will be, will stand in line for nomination for State Senator from the Thirty-ninth district two years hence. If Mr. Amerige shall secure the nomination for the Assembly he can count upon his fences being high and strong in this bailiwick. A United Senator is to be chosen by the next Legislature, as well as by the succeeding one, and not a single vote is to be permitted to stray from the fold. E. W. HARDY asks the Republican nomination for county auditor. Mr. Hardy comes from Orange, has lived in this county for twenty years, has never before been a candidate for office, and as he has no opponent in the race, his good qualities will probably land him a winner. Mr. Hardy holds the only certificate in the county from the state board of accountancy as a certified municipal accountant. He has acted as accountant for the supervisors for a term of years, and has filled the position of accountant to the grand jury for a similar length of time. By occupation a rancher, he has yet found time, during the many Robert FLOOK of Santa Ana announces himself as a candidate for assessor, subject to the decision of the voters as expressed at the Republican primaries. Mr. Flook was a candidate for the same office before the last county convention, but missed landing the prize by a few votes. He believes, in common with a majority of Republicans whom we meet, that a reasonable rotation of men in office begets the best service, which is an axiomatic truth. Mr. Flook is peculiarly fitted to perform the duties of the office and if nominated and elected will doubtless fill the same to the satisfaction of the taxpayers, and that is as much as the best of them can do. The State Executive Committee of the Allied People's party was organized in San Francisco some days ago, and preparations were made to take an active part in the coming campaign. This party is the outgrowth of the effort to bring together and unify the various so-called "reform elements" of the country, Populists, Labor party, Farmers' Alliance and the Grangers. Attempts to consolidate these elements have been in progress for a year or more in the East and resulted in the convention held at Louisville, Ky., on April 2d of this year. The platform adopted by that convention declared in favor of the public ownership and operation of public utilities and direct legislation as the principal objects of the new party. Prior to the meeting of the convention provisional State committees had been formed, including one in this State. The new party adopted a constitution for its government providing for the organization of State and county committees and making fusion with any other party an absolute impossibility. The sen- ture this, as they were within three yards of the coach, and asked to request. Joe boldly advised and took off his hat to the bishop lordship ordered the coach to when Joe whispered to the divinities two men were suffering from scruples of conscience that he they would hang themselves, suing that his lordship should invite to his house and promise to send them. The bishop agreed, and, owing to the balliffs, he said, "You two come to me tomorrow morning, will satisfy you." The men bowed and went pleased, and early the next day won his lordship, who, when they ushered in, said, "Well, my men are these scruples of conscience?" "Scruples?" replied one of them have no scruples! We are balfight lord, who yesterday arrested you sin, Joe Haines, for a debt of £2 your lordship kindly promised to fly us." The trick was strange, but there was stranger, for his lordship, appreciating its cleverness or coming himself bound by the promissory unintentionally given, then settled with the men in full The Man and His Sneeze Once upon a time a man afflicted annual attacks of hay fever was ing in the city with a friend.

Suggestion made at Sacramento that a meeting held several days by Charles W. Kellogg of County that the emblem of campaign be a broom and the clean sweep, was heartily endorsed by the committee. Committee decided to organize county committee in each county in the State and to elect the presidents to the convention by early districts. It also decided nominate at the State convention delegate State ticket, three candidates for the Supreme Judges, Supervisors and members of the Legislature throughout the State, but to county officers out and leave no old parties to fight over. Fight made on Governor Gage in Los Angeles Times on account of his code commission is, in opinion of every one, far-fetched advised. Anyone who knows the J. Denis, former United States district attorney, W. C. Van for twelve years justice of the court, and Judge Freeman, author of note, must admit it is a commission far above the age of men. The fact that the same court knocked out the case not a reflection on the governor his very capable commissary another evidence that our constitution ought to be re-read and simplified so that legislation could be done with some degree certainty. It is wonderful how NO DISPOSITION TO PREVENT A SETTLEMENT President of Anaheim Union Water Company Replies to President of the S. A. V. I. Co. EDITOR GAZETTE:—I notice that Mr. Armor has expounded at great length in your columns his views of the details of the settlement between the two companies, which he refused to discuss in the committee. I do not propose to argue the case with him in the papers, believing that there is a proper place for such a discussion, of which he has refused to avail himself. However, he has made several statements which I desire to correct. He states that our report did not deny that "the directors of the A. U. W. Co. were not trying to reach an agreement." If such omission was made I will (to please Mr. Armor), on behalf of the committee and the board, without contesting Mr. Armor's right to criticize our reports, make the following statement: There has not been, and is not, any disposition on the part of any member of the A. U. W. board to prevent a settlement of this matter. We are unanimously of the opinion that the proposed arrangement would be a benefit to all concerned, and in the settlement of the details are willing to make reasonable concessions or recede from any claim that can be proved unjust. We are willing to resume the discussion at any time the Santa Ana company will send over a committee who will reason out the matter to a finish, instead of splitting hairs over the manner of procedure. We are willing to have a set of rules adopted to govern the discussion, and a referee appointed after the manner of the pugilistic windjammers, if it will facilitate matters. In fact, we are and have been willing to do anything reasonable to preserve harmonious relations between the two REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. For Week Ending May 5, 1902.

TALKING TO ONESELF Soliloquies Are Rare Because Fear They Mean Madness Talking to oneself has this advantage over any other form of tortory or gossip: One is assured sympathetic audience.

Many amusing stories are told of Joe Smith, a comedian of the time of Charles II., sometimes called "Count" Jones. It is said that he was arrested by two balloons for a debt of 20 when he saw a bishop to whom was related passing along in his home. With ready resource he immediately saw a loophole for escape, and going to the men, he said, "Let me kick his lordship, to whom I am known, and he will pay the debt your charges into the bargain." The balloons thought they might venture this, as they were within two or three yards of the coach, and acceded the request. Joe boldly advanced to took off his hat to the bishop. His ship ordered the coach to stop. In Joe whispered to the divine that two men were suffering from suchples of conscience that he feared would hang themselves, suggest that his lordship should invite them in the house and promise to satisfy him. The bishop agreed, and calling the balloons, he said, "You two men to me tomorrow morning, and I satisfy you." The men bowed and went away used, and early the next day waited willing to resume the discussion at any time the Santa Ana company will send over a committee who will reason out the matter to a finish, instead of splitting hairs over the manner of procedure. We are willing to have a set of rules adopted to govern the discussion, and a referee appointed after the manner of the pugilistic windjammers, if it will facilitate matters. In fact, we are and have been willing to do anything reasonable to preserve harmonious relations between the two companies and promote their mutual interests and the interests of the community at large. But if Mr. Armor wishes to refuse the matter discussion, after fathom ing our motives by his great mind-reading stunt, and lay it on the table, I don't just see how he can be prevented at present. Mr. Armor states that there was an agreement (or understanding) with regard to a partnership in the Cajon canal. If he will consult the files of the Gazette he will find that he made an exactly contrary statement in our former controversy about a year ago, and also stated that some of their board did not want to ride the "white elephant." If his statement then was true the agreement must have been made at a subsequent time. I have attended every meeting, but have heard nothing of it. But he states that the Ballestero tract and the Scully right of way would not have been purchased had not the agreement (or understanding) existed. Therefore it must have been made prior to the time he said there was no agreement. If Mr. Armor will furnish the solution of this puzzle by "analogy," "syllogism," or digging up the agreement, he will confer a great favor, for I think I have a right to see it. We wish to convey to Mr. Armor our thanks for making the abstruse calculations necessary to show that our proposed water power would be valueless. As to the recommendation for the 10,000 inch ditch, I would suggest that he meditate on the thought that perhaps we may be speculating in "futures," with the hope that Mr. Armor may sometime buy in at an increased valuation; or perhaps we may offer to take the Santa Ana water down free of charge Quien sabe?

Repotting of plants becomes necessary for two reasons—the plant uses up the available fertility in the soil and fills the pots with roots. To prevent crotched trees from splitting after they come into bearing twist and fasten two small limbs together, and as the stem grows it will prevent splitting. Cuttings of quick growing herbaceous plants, like hellotrope, verbena, phlox, geraniums, root quickly, chrysanthemums quickest of all. Choose cuttings when the plants are most vigorous. Her Gentle Hint. "Yes, I proposed to her by letter." "And what was her reply?" "She simply referred me to a certain chapter and page in 'The Life of Lord Nelson.'" "And what did you find?" "It says, 'After fruitlessly applying for command of the ship by letter, he went in person to see about it, and then he secured it.'"—London Telegraph. Santa Fe Rates.

TALKING TO ONESELF. Miloquies Are Rare Because We Fear They Mean Madness. Talking to oneself has this obvious advantage over any other form of oration or gossip: One is assured of a peculiar drawback: It is supposed to be one of the early symptoms of insanity. Wrongly so perhaps. A mad doctor might rule the habit out of his diagnosis. Nevertheless the popular belief is firmly rooted, and it is for fear of this belief doubtless that we ask ourselves even as we dress our hair with straws so rarely. It may be said that we never do address ourselves at any length except in the delirium of a fever. In moments of ordinary excitement of course we refer to the wind some sort of approximate ejaculation. Delight wrings us a cry of "Hurrah!" or "Thank heaven!" even though there be none by echo us. Similarly in any disgust we emit one of those sounds whose other poor equivalents in print are "hough!" and "faugh!" and "tut!". Much further than this we do not go, "Why, what an ass am I?" cries Hamlet in one of his miloquies. Omitting the first word and transposing the last, the ordinary modern man does often miloquize to that extent. But could no more miloquize to Ham's extent than he could speak incessant lyabics.

LEAVE SAN PEDRO PRANKS OF CUPID. Some Celebrated Men Who Married Their Domestic Servants. Many celebrated men have married their domestic servants. Sir Henry Markes, premier of New South Wales, an example. One night when dining at a friend's house he was struck by the appearance of a servant girl who waited upon the table and persuaded his host to allow her to enter his employ. This she did and for a short time held the position of cook in Sir Henry's household. Then he made her Lady Markes. But more illustrious than this is the case of Peter the Great. One day he was dining at the house of Prince Menshikoff. He noticed one of the servant dogs particularly, and, though she was not handsome, she caught his fancy. Her name, the prince told the czar, was Martha. She had been a servant in the house of a Lutheran minister of Marienburg, and when that city was captured by the troops of Russia she had been taken prisoner by General Bauer, who had passed her over to the prince, whose servant she was. The count politely made a present of her to the czar, who eventually married her. William Cobbett, the great writer, when he was only twenty-one years of age one morning chanced to see a buxom servant girl busily engaged in washing the family linen. The girl was pretty, so Cobbett spoke to her, learned her name and the same evening called upon her parents and said she would like to marry their daughter. The parents of the girl informed the young man that they had no objections to him as their son-in-law, but that he would have to wait until their daughter was of a marriageable age. Five years later Cobbett, true to his early love, married her. Southey on Wordsworth. Of Wordsworth, Southey writes in 1808, says Harold S. Scott in The Atlantic: "He has written a masterly poem called 'The White Doe of Bilston Hall; or, The Fate of the Nortons.' The poem is incomparably fine.

I am more amused at it than offended; not being sufficiently Nor is there any reason to suppose that that class of the community with contemptuous of his own fluency, Hamlet compared himself is or ever was more prone to soliloquize than any other. In the matter of soliloquies we cannot accept Hamlet as an established authority. We merely find in them the possible origin of the belief that talking to oneself is a bad sign."

ELY BROTHERS, 56 Warren St., New York City Chinese Matches. The men and women employed in the Chinese factories have long hours and poor pay, and they suffer much from the sulphur fumes. The Chinese care little for human life, and almost no precautions are taken to lessen risks. No foreigners are employed, and the heartless native overseers have full sway. There is one redeeming feature, however, of this industry—the matchboxes are largely made at the homes of the factory girls. They go to the factory and receive a certain amount of prepared box materials "in the flat"—that is, the thin pieces of board and the sanded and the stamped paper covers which when assembled constitute a matchbox. At their own homes they sit down beside a pot of paste and begin the long day's work of pasting together these parts and placing them in the sun to dry. When several hundred of these are completed, they pile them upon a board, lay another board on top of the stack, then tie them tightly with a small rope and, bundling them on their backs, trudge off to the factory. There the boxes are counted and the number entered in a book against the monthly settlement day.
