The Santa Ana papers continue to shout at the top of their voices of the glories of the Crawford system, but we tell these fellows there is a deep feeling of resentment on the part of Republicans the county over at the action of the county-seat in appropriating to itself nine out of the twelve offices to be voted for. We might with propriety call it ten offices out of the twelve, as Nichols for school superintendent is practically a Santa Ana man. It is with no desire to "waste valuable time," as one suggests, that Republicans the county over are demurring, but to tell these ringsters at the county-seat that another such an exhibition of hoggishness will turn the county over to the enemy. Our information is that the Crawford system has made Democratic counties out of good Republican counties where the plan has been tried in the east, and if the judgment of the Republicans the county over is to be taken as a criterion, the scheme savors of the same tendency here. We say again, as we have hitherto said, that the Crawford system was devised by men with an itch for office irrespective of the effect upon the party. Santa Ana Republicans know this, and so does every party worker in the county outside the county-seat. If the Santa Ana papers wish to throw this matter open for discussion, so be it. They should have possessed more political acumen than to thus grab everything in sight. Here is an extract from one of these most persistent Crawford howlers: there a stray delegate. As a matter of fact, the caucuses were nothing less than a sweeping victory for Gage, and this result was in every way borne out in the primaries. So the Times lied to its readers on Sunday morning—shamelessly lied to them, and for no other purpose than to bolster up its campaign of arrant and vindictive lying. This is only one instance of many. When the counties of Kern and Humboldt selected delegates favorable to the Governor, the Times said never a word about it, save to snarl out its haekneyed phrase, "the gang claims Kern." When an unpledged delegation was selected in San Bernardino it yelled itself red in the face about "anti-Gage," making those conversant with the situation extremely weary with its stupidity and its lying. In Riverside county the national and state administrations were cordially endorsed, yet the Times snarled "the Governor was turned down," adding insult upon insult to the intelligence of its readers. On Monday morning it referred as follows to the Republican convention of Orange county: GOING BACK ON GAGE. The Republican county convention of Orange county will meet Tuesday to select delegates to the State convention, and notwithstanding the fact that the county has been overrun the past two weeks with Gage shouters who have been hurrahing and helloing for the representative of the political machine dominated by Col. Daniel M. Burns and his lieutenants, with a view of creating the impression in that county that at least three-fourths of the people were enthusiastic for the renomination of Gage, the present indications are that Gage can't get a resolution through the convention indorsing him, with a pick and crowbar. This "howling" themselves hoarse is an old dodge of the "machine," but it is too well understood now by the public generally to have any weight. Governor should be defeated by such practices, then, as we say, no future executive of the state will be free from similar assault and the party might just as well turn over the task of selecting its candidate to these two men. If by these arts of vituperation and libel, honest men can be set aside, and the party's choice set at naught, the people of the state must indeed stand appalled at the prospect. But we do not think the honest, upright and incorruptible chief executive of this state can be defeated by such practices, but that he will go onward and upward in his glorious career in despite of them. A RIVER MADE TO PUMP ITS OWN WATER To make the Kings river of central California pump its own water is this interesting plan presented by J. B. Lippincott, resident hydrographer of the United States Geological Survey who has recently investigated the possibility of an increased use of this stream for irrigation and other purposes. The Kings River valley is one of the richest irrigation sections of the West; the profits reported from the rails crop alone in 1900 from the section near Fresno being more than $2,000,000. Nearly 400,000 acres are already under cultivation and utilize almost all the available flow of the river, but few tile lands remain for which there is no sufficient water supply; this is especially true of the lands on the adjacent foothills of the Sierra Nevada, when high-priced citrus fruits can be grown to great advantage. Mr. Lippincott's report, recently issued in the series of Water Supply and Irrigation Paper (No. 58) of the Geological Survey shows that the construction of resevoirs for the impounding of flood water on the tributaries would be of value and he also suggests a unique plan for full conservation of the river water. In the flat lands of low valley, commonly known as the delaware sand and gravel of the soil has said, that the Crawford system was devised by men with an itch for office irrespective of the effect upon the party. Santa Ana Republicans know this, and so does every party worker in the county outside the county-seat. If the Santa Ana papers wish to throw this matter open for discussion, so be it. They should have possessed more political acumen than to thus grab everything in sight. Here is an extract from one of these most persistent Crawford howlers: Chronic fault-finding does the party no good, and inasmuch as we have our ticket in the field, Republicans who really desire the success of their party are wasting a great deal of valuable time, it seems to us in suggesting what a convention might have done. The indication are, it would seem, that a convention would have done much the same thing, and left more dissatisfaction behind. Hardly. We say it without fear of successful contradiction that a delegate convention, after the nomination of West for superior judge, Beckett for clerk, Hall for auditor, Nichols for sheriff—four Santa Ana men—would have nominated Hardy for tax collector, Lewis for recorder, Carpenter or Davis for school superintendent and McKinley for public administrator. We are speaking irrespective of the merits personally of all of these gentlemen—simply from the standpoint of good politics in the formation of the ticket. But to say that a delegate convention would have done what Crawford did—that is absurd. We have no desire to "waste valuable time," but whenever the county-seat ringsters hog the game, as they did in the recent primaries, they will have an outspoken opposition among the ranks of the party in the outside precincts. Only the consideration of Greeley's candidacy for superintendent of public instruction put aside the adoption of instructions by the convention pledging the delegates to Gage. Of course the Times, Jim McFadden, Sarsaparilla Shaw, Buck Wallace and the rest of the penny whistle anti-Gage brigade in this county will set up a howl about it. They cannot see it in this light, but that the convention was overwhelmingly for Gage is beyond dispute. Whether Greeley has added to his strength by taking this stand we doubt, but he asked for it and the convention deferred to his wishes. Yet it was the hardest kind of a fight to keep the delegates from stampeding the convention to a vote shooters who have been hurrahing and helloing for the representative of the political machine dominated by Col. Daniel M. Burns and his lieutenants, with a view of creating the impression in that county that at least three-fourths of the people were enthusiastic for the renomination of Gage, the present indications are that Gage can't get a resolution through the convention indorsing him, with a pick and crowbar. This "howling" themselves hoarse is an old dodge of the "machine," but it is too well understood now by the public generally to have any weight. "Can't get a resolution through the convention endorsing him," indeed. The convention resolved as follows: Resolved, That Henry T. Gage has our confidence as a man and our approval as an executive, and we gladly endorse his fearless, honest, independent and successful administration as Governor of this State. Perhaps that is a sufficient answer to this preposterous, lying sheet. The Times continues at length to insult the intelligence of the Republicaas of this county, in its senseless and senile attempt to belittle the Governor. It is not so much the ill effects this lying has upon the party in Orange county, for we all know Otis is lying, but its influence in other counties where the paper may be read. Here is another item from the same paper: In every county in the state where primaries or conventions have already been held, the push has resorted to just such tactics in order to brace and cheer up their own weak workers and to influence the rural delegates in the hope of getting them in line, in the belief that Gage will sweep everything before him; so The Times is not surprised to learn that the same old scheme is being worked in Orange county. It should, and we believe will, fail of its purpose. Comment is unnecessary. Again: Orange county can assist in freeing the Republican party of this city of this unclean thing by sending to Sacramento as delegates to the State convention eleven men who are not wearing the collar of Dan Burns, men who cannot be corrupted by his benchmen, men who are brave, honest and true, who will do their duty fearlessly and by so doing will vote for the best interests of the Republican party. Such men, it is safe to predict, will not vote for the renomination of Henry T. Gage, who does the bidding of Col. Daniel M. Burns. Rot, pure and simple. We don't know Burns in Orange county, but as between him and Otis, give us Burns every time. A. C. Jennings of Anaheim, head of the commissary department at Glen Ellen, appointee of Gov. Gage, has been in Santa Ana for two weeks doing Gage politics, and will remain until after Tuesday's convention. The convention resolved as follows: Resolved, That Henry T. Gage has our confidence as a man and our approval as an executive, and we gladly endorse his fearless, honest, independent and successful administration as Governor of this State. Perhaps that is a sufficient answer to this preposterous, lying sheet. The Times continues at length to insult the intelligence of the Republicaas of this county, in its senseless and senile attempt to belittle the Governor.

We don't know Burns in Orange county, but as between him and Otis, give us Burns every time. Governor Gage scored a magnific victory in San Francisco, which made his renomination absolutely assured. At the Republican primaries he had lowest vote ever cast in the history—the city resulted in giving him six out of eighteen districts, and out of the 177 delegates. Abe Rackbacked by all the boasted power of Primary league, the vaunted influence of the Call and Chronicle, and the rupturing argument of the Spreeckels and of the immense city patron which was placed completely at Rot disposal, has succeeded in winning only twenty delegates, and these b narrow margin. The interest in primaries has been extraordinary; thousands of citizens went to the polls to give emphatic expression to their protest against the outrageous attacks which have been made against Governor Gage. A remarkable feature of the day: McFadden, Sarsaparilla Shaw, Buck Wallace and the rest of the penny whistle anti-Gage brigade in this county will set up a howl about it. They cannot see it in this light, but that the convention was overwhelmingly for Gage is beyond dispute. Whether Greeley has added to his strength by taking this stand we doubt, but he asked for it and the convention deferred to his wishes. Yet it was the hardest kind of a fight to keep the delegates from stampeding the convention to a vote of instructions for the Governor. Of course the Times and its lackeys will deny all this. But they wildly proclaimed, not so many days ago, that the county would be for Flint, and Jim McFadden long ago promised to deliver the delegation to that gentleman. We have seen how much of a false alarm he really is. After the convention McFadden started on his rounds to interview each of the delegates—at least those with whom he is on speaking terms of acquaintance, so to speak. At last accounts he had not recovered from the thunderbolt of the convention, but was gasping the delegates were for the San Benito man, which they are not. FRIENDS of Gov. Gage in Orange county should make it a point to repudiate the Times. That paper has not printed "the whole truth and nothing but the truth" in matters political during this campaign, not by much. It has distorted facts and suppressed news, to suit its own base and ignoble ends, and has thereby deceived the members of the party whose support it seeks. In its issue of Sunday, for instance, the reader was led to believe Flint "swept the Los Angeles caucus," when, as a matter of fact, those who knew anything about it at all, knew that the supporters of Flint decided not to go into caucus at all—except in those few precincts where they felt they had something more than a forelorn hope of choosing here and fearlessly and by so doing will vote for the best interests of the Republican party. Such men, it is safe to predict, will not vote for the renomination of Henry T. Gage, who does the bidding of Col. Daniel M. Burns. Rot, pure and simple. We don't know Burns in Orange county, but as between him and Otis, give us Burns every time. A. C. Jennings of Anaheim, head of the commissary department at Glen Ellen, appointee of Gov. Gage, has been in Santa Ana for two weeks doing Gage politics, and will remain until after Tuesday's convention. He has been trying to get in line as delegate to the State convention, but he can't get there. To be chosen a delegate to the State convention was not entertained by Jennings for a moment, even as a remote possibility. Delegates had been decided upon before his arrival, and his coming was by no means for that purpose. He was not in Santa Ana but two days, and spent some days here and at other points of the county. But other friends of the Governor had long before his arrival mapped out the fight for him, and Jennings was really nothing more than an interested looker-on—only that and nothing more. If Gov. Gage can be defeated by such men as Spreckels and Leake the Republican party might just as well turn over the party machinery to them and have an end of it. These two San Franciscans have wilfully and maliciously libelled him, and when he seeks redress in the courts they, by shifty evasion and the devious methods of those whose purpose it is to evade the truth, set about to make a mockery of justice by preventing a trial of the case on its merits in a properly constituted tribunal of justice. The Governor has sought by every method in his power to bring these two libelers to trial; but they have, by virtue of the wealth behind them, succeeded thus far in forestalling action; and they follow up their libelous utterances by fresh libels every day. If the primary league, the vaunted influence of the Call and Chronicle, and the disrupting argument of the Spreckels and and of the immense city patron which was placed completely at Rut disposal, has succeeded in winning only twenty delegates, and these have narrow margin. The interest in primaries has been extraordinary, thousands of citizens went to the polls to give emphatic expression to the protest against the outrageous attacks which have been made against Governor Gage. A remarkable feature of the day was the immense vote cast for the Union Labor ticket by the laboring men of the He carried every district south of Market street, and in other parts of city where the laboring men live delegates have received overwhelming majorities. This is the more worthy in view of the fact that a united labor ticket was in the field in each district of the city, and it had resigned a most cordial indorsement at the mass meeting of the workingmen last week. Realizing, however, that libelous attacks upon the governor's editorial triumvirate might prove some Republicans against him laboring men of San Francisco rank to his support as one man, and safe to say that fully 90 per cent of workingmen who cast their ballots the primaries today voted for Gage egates. That this is true is abundantly proven by the returns, for every cast for the Union Labor ticket in a very small fractional part of known strength of the party in city. Spreckels spent his money like we in the effort to defeat Gage in primaries. He fully realized that effect which would result from a feat for the governor in that city, every nerve was strained to accomplish it. For many days both the Caller Chronicle have been calling attention to the abnormally large regiment, and commenting upon it as dence that the people of this city determined to defeat Gage at their maries. The true significance of unusual popular interest is apparent now that the returns are in, and evident the voters of San Francisco had determined to administer a one rebuke to the trio of would-be tators who have been defaming governor through the columns of papers. MANIFOLD BENEFITS OF IRRIGATION Some Up-Country People Are Saying Pleasant Things About Newlands for His Share in the Good Work. Of the wonderfully effective work done for the state during the last session of Congress, none is of more importance than the irrigation law. The passage of this measure was largely due to the personal efforts of Congressman Newlands, to whom was given the task of drafting the original bill that has now become a law. Congressman Newlands has greatly benefited not only his own but all the western states, and great appreciation should be shown of his untiring efforts that resulted in the irrigation bill becoming a law. The measure that has provoked such universal interest embraces a comprehensive scheme for securing irrigation in the arid regions of the country. According to President Roosevelt, the forest and water problems are perhaps the most vital internal questions of the United States. The irrigation bill, which has now become a law, has been under consideration, though not in approved form, for years. The reclamation of arid lands was long ago forced on the attention of the law-makers of the nation. Continued preparation was necessary that the importance of irrigation should be realized and that suitable laws should be enacted. In this matter the action of senators and representatives has been entirely non-partisan. One and all recognize that Francis G. Newlands by his activity and earnest determination succeeded in convincing many of the necessity of acting in the matter. Newlands' able debates as champion of the irrigation bill told the history of the long-deferred action of Congress. Further, he emphasized continually the importance of attempting to add large tracts of waste land to that now under cultivation. "Congressman Newlands is deserving of the greatest praise and commendation for his work during the last session of Congress in connection with the irrigation bill," said Judge Waymire to a Bulletin reporter some days ago. "Newlands by his own efforts has labored hard for the irrigation law. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS For Week Ending August 11, 1902. Furnished by the Orange County Title Company, Santa Ana.

Talking to oneself has this obvantage over any other form oitory or gossip: One is assured of sympathetic audience. But it has this peculiar drawback: It is suppied to be one of the early symptoms sanity. Wrongly so perhaps. A doctor might rule the habit out oi diagnosis. Nevertheless the pobelief is firmly rooted, and it fear of this belief doubtless thereto talk ourselves even as we dress hair with straws so rarely. It may be said that we never do dress ourselves at any length except the delirium of a fever. In most ordinary excitement of course utter to the wind some sort of tinted circulation. Delightful. The image contains a section of a newspaper article with several columns of text. The headline is "Congressman Newlands is deserving of the greatest praise and commendation for his work during the last session of Congress in connection with the irrigation bill," followed by a subheading "In the flat lands of the lower commonly known as the delta, and gravel of the soil have thoroughly saturated through for thirty years of irrigation, so abundance of water can be obtained wells sunk into them." The article continues with details about the plant's growth and its impact on water supply and irrigation. The text is structured in paragraphs, each discussing different aspects of the plant's development and its significance to the environment. It mentions the plant's location in New Mexico, Wyoming, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and California, its capacity to absorb water, and its role in supporting local ecosystems. The article also discusses the plant's adaptation to various conditions, including droughts and floods, and its ability to maintain water levels in the river system. It highlights the plant's importance in providing water for agricultural purposes and its contribution to regional biodiversity. The final paragraph summarizes the plant's benefits and potential applications, emphasizing its role in improving water resources and enhancing environmental sustainability. This text is a transcription of a newspaper article from a specific page within a larger document. It includes headlines, subheadings, and body text that provides detailed information about the plant's characteristics, history, and ecological significance. Remarkable feature of the day was immense vote cast for the Gage by the laboring men of the city. Every district south of Marl Street, and in other parts of the where the laboring men live his states have received overwhelming cities. This is the more notice in view of the fact that a union ticket was in the field in every part of the city, and it had received cordial endorsement at the great meeting of the workingmen held last week. Realizing, however, that the attacks upon the governor by historiary triumvirate might prejudice Republicans against him the young men of San Francisco rallied to support as one man, and it is say that fully 90 per cent of the men who cast their ballots at primaries today voted for Gage delicately. That this is truly abundantly true by the returns, for every vote for the Union Labor ticket is but very small fractional part of the strength of the party in that series. He fully realized the which would result from a deformity was strained to accomplish for many days both the Call andaronicle have been calling attention to the abnormally large registra- and commenting upon it as evident that the people of this city were trained to defeat Gage at the prizes. The true significance of this unusual popular interest is apparent that the returns are in, and it is that the voters of San Francisco determined to administer a crush-buke to the trio of would-be dictators who have been defaming the minor through the columns of their societies. Under the present law the government will build large storage tanks for water to be used in the regions where it is scarce. The law provides that the proceeds of the sales of public lands shall be used to construct irrigation plants and reservoirs. This fixes the cost to be repaid by the settlers. Landowners will be greatly benefited by such direct dealing with the government. Of course, the fact is always to be considered that the law may not be carried out as is provided, but that possibility hardly presents itself in this case. "We must never underestimate the importance of irrigation. It is the highest type of agriculture and means so much to this country. Our agricultural pursuits contribute largely to the wealth of the state and may be considered foremost. As matters have been so far, there have been a great many who talked and wrote about irrigation. A few have been industriously endeavoring to accomplish something practical, such as the building of irrigation canals. Congressman Newlands has undoubtedly from the first been the champion of the irrigation measure and has been instrumental in securing the approval of Congress. He has been of the greatest service in securing such important legislation regarding irrigation, and I have understood that he has devoted himself most assiduously to the non-partisan work that is to be of such great benefit."

Many celebrated men have married their domestic servants. Sir Henry Parkes, premier of New South Wales, is 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 Parkes. 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 maids 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 Marlenburg, 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 he 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 Rilston Hall; or, The Fate of the Nortons.' The poem is incomparably fine. It would amuse you to hear how he talks of his own production." His entire and intense selfishness exceeds anything you could have conceived. I am more amused at it than offended; not being sufficiently attached to him to feel pain at perceiving his faults, and yet respecting him far too much on the average of his qualities to be disgusted. It is so pure and unmixed a passion in him that Ben Jonson would have had him in a play had he been his contemporary."
