The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Proprietor THURSDAY...OCTOBER 16, 1902 The spectacle of Mr. Sherwood, bowed under the weight of his water infirmities, toting his manuscript around from one newspaper office to another in the furtherance of his purpose to cast mud at us which in his enfeebled condition doesn’t quite reach, is a spectacle calculated to move an obelisk to tears. However the task seems to be one of congeniality to his nature, and he seems at last to have fallen to the depths of his level—we are sorry to see it. We purpose discussing these questions upon their merits, free from his personality, free from any ill-tempered insinuations or villification. Sherwood’s position upon the Yorba reservoir question has been pretty well threshed out during the past year and over: We do not intend to bring it up here, but merely reiterate our former statement that his position upon this question can not be explained upon grounds of honesty, sincerity or square dealing. His latest eruption seems to be over the location of a cement ditch on land belonging to Mr. Miles, which ditch was surveyed by Sherwood, and after being constructed at the company’s expense, it is found it is ten feet out of the way, and Miles may insist that it be removed. The stockholders pay the freight and must enjoy the spectacle. At the meeting of the water board October 4th the matter was reported as follows, according to the account of the meeting in our local columns: The water board at its meeting on Saturday afternoon was addressed by Charley Miles relative to a cement ditch running across his land ten feet out of its proper place. The line of the ditch was surveyed by Mr. Sherwood, at present president of the company, and has been a thorn in the side of the board for several years. Mr. Miles said that he had called the statements and insinuations, he insinuated that our consulting engineer (Mr. Eaton) had had his mind made up on the Yorba reservoir proposition before he saw it. The insinuation is especially contemptible and infamous,” and so forth. Sherwood need not concern himself about rushing to the rescue of Mr. Eaton—that gentleman may be presumed to be eminently qualified to speak for himself. We have said nothing reflecting upon his integrity. We know he disapproves the Yorba “reservoir proposition,” and doubt not he bases his opposition upon what seems to him to be good and sufficient grounds therefor. It is not Eaton whose motives we attack, but Sherwood’s—the man who has been on all sides of the question, for it, against it, non-committal and on the fence. Assuming for the sake of the argument that Sherwood knew Eaton was opposed to the reservoir (we do not say that he did, for, after blowing hot and cold upon it for a year, he finally, having succeeded in getting Engineer Kellogg’s situation, blossomed out as a full-fledged enthusiast favoring it); but assuming it, the censure is not to be directed against Eaton for his opinion, but rather toward the man who having fought the measure, for reasons best known to himself, for upward of a year, sought to secure and make public the opinion of that engineer adverse to the structure, knowing that other engineers, quite as trustworthy as Mr. Eaton, had already given their opinion in favor of it. That is what we said—Sherwood may call it lying and contemptible, but that appears to be his principal stock in trade; that’s about his level. Perhaps such an act on his part might with propriety be signified as contemptible — fair-minded men might term it contemptible; but Sherwood cannot apply that term to us when considering our statement with regard to Eaton. Hardly. Sherwood is a particularly vulnerable gentleman to thus parade his infirmities before the public, being men in office beyond their first or second term, but in the case of Lacey he has monopolized the nomination for that office since the organization of the county thirteen years ago. No other Democrat has ever been nominated for sheriff in this county. Indications point to the election of Nichols by a large majority. W. L. HALE, Republican nominee for supervisor of this district, has an investment of $30,000 in orchard property in this district, and first came to this section thirty years ago. Mr. Linebarger, his Democratic opponent, is a newcomer, utterly unknown throughout the district, and his name does not appear upon the assessment roll. Whom do the voters of the district desire to elect to this important office? The Santa Ana Bulletin, speaking of the qualifications of F. O. Daniel for the superior judgeship, says he is “a lawyer who has no peers in Orange county, and but few equals.” Rather a meaningless reference to the candidate, but it is probably the best the Bulletin can do under the circumstances.

At the meeting of the water board October 4th the matter was reported as follows, according to the account of the meeting in our local columns: The water board at its meeting on Saturday afternoon was addressed by Charley Miles relative to a cement ditch running across his land ten feet out of its proper place. The line of the ditch was surveyed by Mr. Sherwood, at present president of the company, and has been thorn in the side of the board for several years. Mr. Miles said that he had called the board's attention repeatedly to the fact that the ditch was not only ten feet on his land, but that it obstructed a natural water course through his ranch and in times of rain turned the flood water into his orchard, uprooting trees and doing irreparable damage. Sherwood, in attempting to explain how it came that the ditch had been placed where the board now wished it wasn't, said at that point of the man there existed a difference of ten feet in the section lines. He had started from the wrong stake, supposing it to be the right one, and the ditch was therefore that many feet out of the way. Miles asked how there could be that difference in the section lines when his northwest corner lines up with the adjoining property. He added, however, that the incorrect location of the ditch was to him a minor point, and that if the company, by the construction of a flume or the laying of a pipe would thereby care for the storm water and free his orchard from the danger of further overflow, he would give the company a five year lease for the ground occupied by the ditch. Mr. Zeyn asked why Miles did not give the company a deed therefor, instead of a lease, in the event of the board's agreeing to afford him necessary protection from overflow. Mr. Miles replied that the ditch cut off a wedge-shaped piece of his land which made the giving of a deed to it out of the question. Mr. Hale said that so far as constructing a flume or laying a pipe to relieve the ditch was concerned, that would never be done with his vote. If the ditch is on private property the company will have to remove it. Repairs on a ditch the company did not own on a five-years' lease, was utterly dis tasteful to him. Attorney Melrose asked how the ditch came to be there in the first instance, without a deed having been made the company for it, according to the rule, before work begun. Sherwood said that Miles' man (A.W. Danforth) had assured him that soon as Miles returned from the east where he was visiting at the time of the construction of the ditch, he would execute a deed to the land occupied by it. This, Sherwood said, Miles had on his return refused to do. Miles replied that Danforth had authority to act for him in his absence and that he (Miles) fully intended executing a deed for the ditch, but when on his return he found it was not in its correct location he refused to make a dead for it. After a further discussion it was ordered that a resurvey be made in order to determine whether the ditch is out of plumb or not. Sherwood—I don't want to survey it again. Hale—You, as the company's engineer, will have to do the work if we say so. If you won't go, we'll carry you. Sherwood in his latest effusion, re- That is what we said—Sherwood may call it lying and contemptible, but that appears to be his principal stock in trade; that's about his level. Perhaps such an act on his part might with propriety be signified as contemptible — fair-minded men might term it contemptible; but Sherwood cannot apply that term to us when considering our statement with regard to Eaton. Hardly. Sherwood is a particularly vulnerable gentleman to thus parade his infirmities before the public, being at the moment before them asking their suffrages for the office of surveyor. It may be possible the "brazen ears of the reporter" might have a bad time of it if they could have heard what Sherwood's have eagerly listened to in the matter of our "contemptible attack upon Mr. Eaton;" but if this immaculate person could have heard the charges made against his selling-out to Newberry in the attempted Rinbon steal, perhaps his ears might have been doing a bit of business on their own account at the old stand. We do not vouch for the truth of these rumors, to the effect that this man was interested in the Newberry attempt to confiscate the homes of people of this valley; but we know and we do say that his actions upon the board for a year savored much of a paid emissary of this arch fiend in his studied attempt to despoil us of our homes. And this man now the president of the Anaheim Union water company! We doubt if the voters of the county care to have for their surveyor a man whose many acts of competency as a surveyor are by words among his associates; but it is our opinion that if his record were presented to the people of the county—his record upon these matters during the brief span of two years past—not many ballots would fall his way election day. Perhaps it may be worth while to spread these matters before the people for their information. J.A. Boory, Democratic nominee for assessor, in his references to his Republican opponent, Frank Vegely, says that he has worked so hard while in office, that in his (Booty's) opinion the people should vote to give him a vacation for four years, in order, we presume, that Booty, having had a fine rest, may have a crack at the office. This is the first time we ever heard that faithfulness in office should be thus rewarded. Vegely gives his personal supervision to every detail of work in his office, and has the word of State Controller Calvin that he has best kept set N C Cheney to Signa E Cheney—Lot 1, block I, Wm C Frazier's subdivision of the net of lot 5, block B of Modena; $20.

Hale—You, as the company's engineer, will have to do the work if we say so. If you won't go, we'll carry you. Sherwood in his latest effusion, referring to this matter, observes: "This week the 'reporter' attempts to befog the matter, and quotes me as making an explanation that I never dreamed of. I will wager the 'reporter' $100, or any part of it that he may have, the money to go to the Anaheim library if he loses, that if Mr. Miles reserved twenty acres of land as he says he did, the ditch is in the right place. 1. So far as this man's statement that our reporter misquoted him is concerned, we are willing to leave the matter with the entire board, as well as with Mr. Miles and the others at the meeting present, to near us out in our statement that he was correctly quoted. 2. So far as his offer to bet is concerned, we say that as the regularly employed company surveyor going to lay out a piece of work which was to cost the stockholders a large sum of money, he should have seen to it that there were no ifs, and/or buts about it. He will not in this instance be permitted to hide his incompetency under the implication that he knows more about Mr. Miles' land than that gentleman knows about it himself. Sherwood surveyed the ditch, Mr. Miles has made known his position concerning it, and we are content to pass the matter up to the stockholders for their final judgment in the premises. Sherwood's lofty-minded epistle continues to the following effect: "Last week, among other lying Republican opponent, Frank Vegely, says that he has worked so hard while in office, that in his (Booty's) opinion the people should vote to give him a vacation for four years, in order, we presume, that Booty, having had a fine rest, may have a crack at the office. This is the first time we ever heard that faithfulness in office should be thus rewarded. Vegely gives his personal supervision to every detail of work in his office, and has the word of State Controller Colgan that he has the best kept set of books in any assessor's office in the state. That is the kind of official the people, irrespective of party, believe in retaining in office, and that is what they are going to do this year, unless we miss our guess. Such campaigning is making Vegely votes every day'of the week." Capt. Ahlborn, in his address at the Democratic candidates' meeting the other evening, said his ambition was to be the first man from Anaheim who ever held a county office in Orange county. If the captain will look up the history of the county he will see that Anaheim men have held office in this county before — Mr. Chynoweth, for instance, was not so long ago twice elected to the legislature from this city. We are afraid the captain's ambition will not be gratified—not this year. In George Peters, his Republican opponent, he has one of the strongest men on the ticket running against him. Peters' has been the efficient head deputy in the office and his election will come as a well-merited promotion. Joe Nichols is developing into the silver-tongued orator of this campaign. His opponent, Theo Lacey, is marked for the slaughter.

Two little girls occupied seats together on an elevated train the other night. Both were scantily dressed, hollow eyed and hungry looking. They were unmistakably of that class known as "cashgirls" employed in the down town department stores, for each addressed the other by a number in lieu of a name. Directly opposite them sat a fashionably dressed woman who was accompanied by a well groomed male escort. Upon their entrance the conversation of the little girls stopped abruptly and there was something pitiful in the car nestness with which both watched every move of the woman so stunningly gowned. Two pairs of abnormally keen though tired eyes thoroughly investigated every bit of finery in her apparel, from the highest plume of her hat to the soft, natty shoes which incased her shapely feet. "Say, 76," whispered the smaller of the two girls, leaning toward her companion, "she's a real lady, she is. You can tell by her make up. Ain't that a beaut of a hat, though? And look at that diamond breastpin! Whew! I'll bet that hat cost all of'—" "Sh!" interrupted 76 in an undertone. "She'll hear you." There was a Republican State Ticket. For Governor George C.

It is a curious fact that with all of the improvements and modifications so notable in our navy we are still using the old fashioned smoky, smelly powder that envelopes everything in a gray pall, obscures the view and confuses the gunners. Only one of our ships has been using cordite, the wonderful smokeless powder which the English navy has adopted. The results with this ship, the New Orleans, were truly amazing. The rapidity, accuracy and precision of her fire were the admiration of all observers. Smokeless powder has several advantages. There is no obscuring of the view, the explosion producing the merest haze, which lasts but an instant. It leaves but little residuum in the gun, nestness with which both watched every move of the woman so stunningly gowned. Two pairs of abnormally keen though tired eyes thoroughly investigated every bit of finery in her apparel, from the highest plume of her hat to the soft, nutty shoes which incased her shapely feet. "Say, 76," whispered the smaller of the two girls, leaning toward her companion, "she's a real lady, she is. You can tell by her make up. Ain't that a beaut of a hat, though? And look at that diamond breastpin! Whew! I'll bct that hat cost all of"— "Sh!" interrupted 76 in an under-tone. "She'll hear you." There was a spell of silence as both girls leaned back with their heads resting against the top of the seat. They were enjoying the dazzling picture before them. After glancing over a section of a newspaper which the man had given her the woman folded it up and handed it back to him. "Did you get the tickets?" she asked. "Yes," was the answer in an indifferent tone. "Let me see them." He extracted a small envelope from his vest pocket and handed it to her. "By the way," he remarked, "we will have to go tonight. I couldn't get good seats for tomorrow, and rather than miss it I took these." "Tonight?" she repeated in a tone of voxation. "You know well enough that we can't go tonight. We have another engagement"— "Which we can conveniently cancel," he interpolated. "Indeed we will not," she retorted, with a determined stamp of her foot. A protracted argument followed which was not too low for the cashgirls to learn the drift. "You can go to Mrs. Brown's alone," finally exclaimed the man, "and I will take your mother to the theater! We can call for you on our way home if you insist on going." "You'll not go to the theater with anybody. You must and will go to Mrs. Brown's with me." Thus asserting herself, she deliberately tore the envelope containing the tickets in minute parts and threw them on the floor. They left the train at the next station, he with a disgusted look on his face and she with head erect and a defiant glare in her bright eyes. Scarceily had the rustle of her garments ceased to be heard when 76 sagey observed: "You're all off, 27. She isn't a real lady. It's only her fine duds what makes you think so. She's only an imitation, and no clerk would take her to a window if she wanted to make a sale."—Boston Herald. War Correspondents. Are They a Detective 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 unruly! It would be maddenting 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 perhaps 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. Peculiar Trade Customs. The Armenians, who divide with the Greeks and Jews the entire mercantile traffic of west Asia, are accomposed to sit down and weep bitterly when they have sold any article of value, declaring that the purchaser has ruined them. The Jews, on similar occasions, rend their garments, which are worn possibly for such sacrifice, with still londer protestations of rain.

Edwin McIntyre, who lives a hermit life in the house near Warren where Dr. Pilton R. Baker was shot, has a queer hobby. One of the prettiest and best pieces of road in Maine passes in front of his retreat. It has been built by Mr. McIntyre, who for the last 22 years has been picking up the rocks and stones near his home and pounding them into pebbles, which he has put in the highway. 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, for years have compensated the man by giving him his road tax. He estimates that he has placed on the road 20 cords of these manufactured stones. Other towns might envy Warren such a faithful roadbuilder.—Rockland (Me.) Star. A Wonderful Map. The ordinance survey map of England, which contains over 108,000 sheets, and which has cost $1,000,000 a year for 20 years to keep up to date, is said to be the largest map in the world. The scale varies from ten feet to one-eighth of an inch to the mile. The details are so minute that sheets having a scale of 25 inches show every hedge, fence wall, building and even every isolated tree in the country. Peculiar Trade Customs. The Armenians, who divide with the Greeks and Jews the entire mercantile traffic of west Asia, are accustomed to sit down and weep bitterly when they have sold any article of value, declaring that the purchaser has ruined them. The Jews, on similar occasions, rend their garments, which are worn possibly for such sacrilege, with still longer protestations of rain. In Asiatic Russia the shopkeepers consider it in cumbent upon them to at first refuse to sell their goods to any customer, and the latter is expected to employ himself at least an hour in persuading the merchant to deal with him. But the most remarkable custom is that which prevails among the merchants of Tibet, a regular hand to hand fight being required to take place between the seller and the purchaser on the disposal of any considerable quantity of goods, the former obstinately refusing the price to which he had first agreed, and the latter as resolutely forcing it upon him. It is not considered businesslike to settle matters until a few blows have been exchanged, after which they peaceably shake hands and the bargain is concluded.—Exchange. Aching Joints In the fingers, toes, arms, and other parts of the body, are joints that are inflamed and swollen by rheumatism—that acid condition of the blood which affects the muscles also. Sufferers dread to move, especially sitting or lying long, and their condition is commonly worse in wet weather. "It has been a long time since we have been without Hood's Sarsaparilla. My father thinks he could not do without it. He has troubled with rheumatism since he was a boy, and Hood's Sarsaparilla is the only medicine he can take that will enable him to take his place in the field." Miss Ada Dory, Sidney, Iowa. Hood's Sarsaparilla and Pills Remove the cause of rheumatism—no outward application can. Take them. Nasal Catarrh quickly yields treatment by Elys's Cream Balm, which is ably aromatic.

A silk skirt says a fashion authority, is one of the things that can be made successfully at home, so there is no reason why it should be lacking in the wardrobe of a woman. Nothing looks worse than a white petticoat on the street. It stamps the wearer at once as being badly dressed. The silk skirt is cleanly, light and is the only garment of its kind which adjusts itself properly to the outer skirt. In the long run it is also the most economical. Eight yards of taffeta will make a pretty skirt, with ruffles, and for 75 cents a yard a very desirable quality can be purchased. On the other hand, for $5 or $6 a splendid skirt can be bought at any of the shops. Of course those are only simple skirts, with two or more narrow ruffles, but they serve admirably for all purposes to which the average woman will put them.

Items concerning important legal gains for women in France and Switzerland within the past year are glanced from La Ligue, the organ of the Belgian Woman's Rights association. In Switzerland two laws were passed conferring now civil privileges on women. One allows woman to be a witness in all civil proceedings, and the other to be appointed a guardian with certain restrictions, as, for instance, a married woman must have the consent of her husband. A law passed last November in France confers also on women the capacity to be a witness to wills, notarial signatures and other proceedings in civil cases. A second and quite as important a gain is the law passed in January of this year which allows women engaged in commerce to be electors for the nomination of consular judges. Turkeys In the West. There is no part of the west that has ever been overstocked with turkeys, and the breeding of them is steadily gaining ground in this part of the country. There was a time not long ago when Rhode Island turkeys stood at the head of the market, and Narragansett turkeys were the best that could be produced anywhere. Now the Bronze turkey is at the head, and those produced in the east in any market where they are offered. With cheap feed, unlimited range and a market that is rarely overstocked, those who breed turkeys in the west are almost certain to make more money those who breed any other kind of stock.-Massachusetts Plains
