MERRY WAR BEGINS IN PROHIBITION MOVEMENT Napoleon Hart Enriches City Treasury by Paying Ten Dollars for Battery Charge Preferred by Rev. Burr Rev. Eugene Burr and E. J. Mercereau of the committee appointed at the recent Sunday closing meeting at the Christian church to solicit signatures to a petition for Sunday closing, entered Napoleon Hart's saloon on Friday and laying a copy of the petition upon the bar asked Hart to sign it. The latter, feeling that the Sunday closing movement was directed primarily against the saloons and that its enforcement would be but the forerunner of absolute prohibition, became indignant and ordered both gentlemen out of the house. Hart was behind the bar at the time but walked around in front, and laying hands upon Burr took him to the door and told him not to again enter his premises. Burr went before Justice of the Peace Howard and swore to a complaint against Hart alleging battery. Hart was placed under arrest by Constable Llewellyn. On Monday he pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined $10, which he paid. It was said yesterday that other charges and counter charges might grow out of the case. Mercereau it was said would swear to a complaint asking that Hart be placed under bonds to keep the peace. Hart, it was reported would have both the others arrested for entering his saloon and starting the argument which resulted in the disturbance of the peace. Burr and Mercereau visited the various saloons, soliciting signatures to the petition, but obtained none. In Fritz Ruhmann's they informed him that if a Sunday closing ordinance prevailed they would see to it that the present saloon license of $50 per month would be reduced to $25. Ruhmann refused to sign the petition, saying his interests were all here and were not convertible into things easily moved at a moment's notice, so that he might leave town as others might do who have no property interests here, should Sunday closing deal a blow to his business. Considerable interest has attached to the meeting in the Christian Church where resolutions were adopted favoring Sunday closing, which is regarded by many as being nearly the forerunner of prohibition. Much criticism is heard in business circles regarding the ASPHALT PAVEMENT FOR CENTER STREET One of the Improvements Now Agitating the Chamber of Commerce—Officers Elected At the meeting of the chamber of commerce on Thursday evening of last week for the purpose of electing officers for the ensuing year, the following selections were made: G. F. Boyd, P. H. Krick, Dr. Johnston, C. F. Grim, J. P. Hatzfeld, I. Isher and J. S. Howard. Immediately after the election the new board at once perfected organization by electing G. F. Boyd president, C. G. Grim vice-president, P. H. Krick secretary and treasurer. One of the first innovations to be made will be the drafting of a new set of bylaws, the old ones having been either lost or destroyed. P. H. Krick and F. A. Backs jr., were delegated to do the work. One of the most important moves made by the new board was the appointing of a committee on road improvement consisting of Dr. Johnston and L. E. Miller, who will look into the practicability of paying Center street with asphalt in the busipess part of the city. It was the opinion of the chamber that the expense entailed by such improvement could easily be met by popular subscription and assessment on abutting property. Should they be successful in this the committee will next turn its attention to Los Angeles street with a like object in view. The committee on advertising, which is composed of P. H. Krick and F. Baum, have now under consideration a card folder which has the appearance of a first-class advertising medium. The getting of several thousand more descriptive booklets is held in abeyance. The next meeting will be held on February 12th, and thereafter on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month. An earnest invitation is extended our progressive citizens to be present at these meetings, but croakers need not apply. Married PEASE-DIERS. Miss Dora M. Diers and Mr. Arthur H. Pease were married on Wednesday evening, at 7 o'clock, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. Diers of Santa Ana. The house was beautifully decorated with flowers and smilax. In the parlor were potted ARMOR'S ABLE ARGUMENT The Orange County War-Horse Tears Judge Works and His Irrigation Bill to Pieces. Although the proposed Works-Mead irrigation bill has gone the way of all vicious legislation, the following arguments against it, by Hop. Samuel Armor of Orange, who has been at Sacraimento, will be perused with interest by our readers at this time. John D. Works has issued a second pamphlet, introduced by the question: "Should the Irrigation Bill Pass?" At the very time he was propounding this agonizing question he was securing the postponement for the second time of the hearing of the bill in this committee! He tried in this second pamphlet to answer six out of the many objections raised against the bill. First objection: That it interferes with riparian rights. His answer to this objection begs the question by trying to minimize the amount of interference, saying: "It only takes away the old common-law right * * of having the water flow past his land unused." He knows as well as any man living that the old common law right is not upheld by any court at the present time. Riparian rights are construed as confining the use of water to lands within the watershed of the stream from which the water is taken. Time is not any essence of such rights, but place is; hence any attempt to limit riparian rights to certain times and purposes is an interference, and such a one as will not be sustained by the courts. Second objection: That the bill interferes with other vested rights. His answer is: "This objection has no foundation in fact," and he cites seven instances in the bill where vested rights are alleged to be protected. To determine whether a right is interfered with, it is necessary to understand what the right is and how it is affected by the law. The Standard dictionary defines a "vested right" as one "held by a tenure subject to no contingency; determinately fixed in a designated person; complete and consummated." For instance, the ownership in fee simple of a piece of land would be a vested right. Such a right cannot be impaired or forfeited by a failure to utilize the property within a given time or to use it for one purpose rather than for another. In the language of the definition, the right is Ruhmann refused to sign the petition, saying his interests were all here and were not convertible into things easily moved at a moment's notice, so that he might leave town as others might do who have no property interests here, should Sunday closing deal a blow to his business. Considerable interest has attached to the meeting in the Christian Church where resolutions were adopted favoring Sunday closing, which is regarded by many as being nearly the forerunner of prohibition. Much criticism is heard in business circles regarding the meeting, and one of the committee appointed to circulate the petition was roundly berated for participating in the meeting by a saloon-keeper, into whose place of business he went a day or two ago to wet his whistle. The saloon-keeper refused to serve him with liquor and ordered him out of the house. That the present city trustees could be persuaded to pass a Sunday closing ordinance, even though petitions favoring it were submitted to them, bearing the signatures of a majority of citizens is to be doubted. However, so far from bearing the names of a majority, the petitions are said to be signed by only a few. Yesterday it was said on the streets that the Sunday closing movement would be dropped and that the prohibitionists would defer their fight until the next municipal election, when the main question to be decided, it now seems, will be prohibition or wetness. That the probids will poll quite a vote is undeniable, but that they can carry the election is doubtful. The fact that prohibition is even discussed here shows the great change that has come over the city in recent years. Anaheim once had fourteen saloons, now it has seven in town, and one at the brewery at the west end, making eight altogether. Formerly as many new saloons could be started as the brewer could find places to dispense beer; he was the dominant member of the board of city trustees, and anyone willing to pay a license of $10 a month and to handle his beer and liquors, could get a grog-shop license for the asking. Now the city trustees are committed to the policy of maintaining no more than eight saloons licenses in the city, irrespective of the beer or liquor handled by them, and the license has lately been raised to $50 a month. In former years saloon-keepers who refused to handle local beer were threatened by the thrifty brewer with the opening of a saloon on each side of them to freeze them out; now these questionable methods are relegated to the limbo of forgotten things, and of the seven saloons in town at least four handle outside beer exclusively, and others have outside beer on sale. And to cap the climax of this state of affairs, some people are now urging prohibition, surely there has come a great change of sentiment here in recent years. Married Pease-Diers. Miss Dora M. Diers and Mr. Arthur H. Pease were married on Wednesday evening, at 7 o'clock, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. Diers of Santa Ana. The house was beautifully decorated with flowers and smilax. In the parlor were potted plants. The ceremony was performed by Rev. E. C. Davis of the Congregational Church. The bridal party composed of the bride and groom, Miss Annie Diers, maid of honor, and Mr. Stedman, best man, stood under an arch of flowers, from the center of which hung a beautiful wedding bell of white carnations and smilax, while the impressive marriage ceremony was performed. The wedding march was played by Miss Pendleton. The bride’s gown was a beautiful creation of white satin, with overdress of white India mull; the maid of honor was dressed in blue. Shortly after the ceremony, music by Miss Pendleton, the guests marched into the dining room, where an elaborate supper was served. After supper the company was entertained by music, the first on the program being a vocal solo, "O! Promise Me," by Mrs. Konig of Anaheim, which was much appreciated, and was followed by instrumental selections by Miss Pendleton, Mrs. Lutz and others. In a shower of rice the newly married couple went to their new home on Fifth street, where they will be at home to their friends. Children's Coughs and Colds. Mrs. Joe McGrath, 327 E. 1st St., Hutchinson, Kan., writes: "I have given Ballard’s Horsebound Syrup to my children for coughs and colds for the past four years, and find it the best medicine I ever used." Unlike many cough syrups, it contains no opium, but will soothe and heal any disease of the throat or lungs quicker than any other remedy. 25c, 50c and $1.00 at J. P. Hatzfeld’s drug store. Bank Statement The First National bank of this city has issued a neat folder which contains a statement of the condition of the bank at the close of business on February 6th. It shows a sound and healthy condition, and is as follows: RESOURCES. Loans and discounts $79,598.33 Overdrafts 40.28 U.S. bonds and premiums 17,765.63 Due from banks $35,472.88 Due from U.S. treasurer 625.00 Cash on hand 11,809.91 Total available cash 67,938.79 LIABILITIES. Capital stock $50,000.00 Undivided profits 1,211.89 National bank notes outstanding 12,800.00 Deposits 157,729.14 So Sweet and Pleasing in Taste! Mrs. C. Peterson, 625 Lake St., Topka, Kan., speaking of Ballard’s dictionary defines a "vested right" as one "held by a tenure subject to no contingency; determinately fixed in a designated person; complete and consummated." For instance, the ownership in fee simple of a piece of land would be a vested right. Such a right cannot be impaired or forfeited by a failure to utilize the property within a given time or to use it for one purpose rather than for another. In the language of the definition, the right is "subject to no contingency;" it is "complete and consummated." The Works bill, while professing to respect vested rights, sets up a system of supervision and control that with its fixing the duty of water, with its defining portion of the year for irrigation, with its regulating the extent and points of diversion, with its directing the manner of distribution, with its determining what is surplus water, with its forfeiting of rights for non-use of water and non-payment of rates, interferes very much with such rights—in fact, confiscates more or less of them. Third objection: That the bill will interfere with national irrigation. He denies that there is anything in the bill that will have this effect and points to Section 40 as providing that waters may be stored and distributed by the National government. If the author of the bill cannot see what everybody else sees, that the great inducements held out-in the bill for the appropriation of water would lead to its all being appropriated before the Government could perfect its plans then it is not worth while to waste words on that objection. Fourth objection: That the bill will divorce the water from the land. The gentleman’s reasoning in answer to this objection is "child-like and bland." In the first place the water belongs to the estate; in the second place some person, firm or corporation may appropriate it; in the third place it is made "appurtenant to and will pass with conveyance of the land." The third and last ownership attaches it to the land; ergo: the water cannot be divorced from the land and "this objection to the bill is without foundation." The incongruity of three separate and distinct ownerships of the water in possession at one and the same time never seemed to trouble the learned proponent of the bill. Passing by the myth about the state’s owning the water, let us see if we can determine between the appropriator and irrigator as to ownership. Section 49 of the bill guarantees the corporation appropriating and furnishing the water not less than the legal rate of interest in profits on the investment over and above all expenses. Section 35 forfeits the irrigator’s right to water for all time to come, if he fails to use it for two years, the right reverting to the corporation; the same penalty is inflicted for a failure to pay the rates for one threatened by the thrifty brewer with the opening of a saloon on each side of them to freeze them out; now these questionable methods are relegated to the limbo of forgotten things, and of the seven saloons in town at least four handle outside beer exclusively, and others have outside beer on sale. And to cap the climax of this state of affairs, some people are now urging prohibition, surely there has come a great change of sentiment here in recent years. Wanted More properties listed with me.

Passing by the myth about the state's owning the water, let us see if we can determine between the appropriator and irrigator as to ownership. Section 49 of the bill guarantees the corporation appropriating and furnishing the water not less than the legal rate of interest in profits on the investment over and above all expenses. Section 35 forfeits the irrigator's right to water for all time to come, if he fails to use it for two years, the right reverting to the corporation; the same penalty is inflicted for a failure to pay the rates for one year. Thus the irrigator is compelled to buy the water company's commodity and pay its price for the same; the alleged appurtenancy of the water to the land, or the irrigator's wishes relative to the management of his property cuts no figure. Suppose the landowner disagrees with the water company and, relying on the declaration of the appurtenancy of the water to his land, attempts to stand out for himself, what can he do? Build a ditch for himself? Well, hardly; he can do nothing. With one person, firm or corporation owning the ditch system and another owning the land, the appurtenancy of the water to the land is an impracticable proposition. Mr. Smythe is right; the bill, encouraging the appropriation of water as it does, will divorce the water from the land. Fifth objection: That the enforcement of regulations as to the duty and distribution of water is arbitrary and an interference with vested rights. In combating this objection the author of the bill again begs the question, trying to show that the interference is for a good purpose, and says: "If this cannot be done, there can be no reasonable regulation of the water by the state." Why should the state, or any one acting in its name, do what Judge Works admits it has no right to do, viz.: interfere with vested rights? If the Riverside Water Company sinks wells on its own land and buys the flow of other wells, thereby increasing its THE ARGUMENT By War-Horse Tears and His Irrigation Pieces. Proposed Works-Mead gone the way of all the following argument he was securing at Sacra-ased with interest by time. Sixth objection: That the water companies are required to make reports. The answer to this objection is a mild plea in behalf of requiring reports. He says: "It is difficult to see why any company should object to furnishing such information for the purpose of having a public record made of them." So far as erecting the opposition to reports into a separate objection to the bill, it is setting up a man of straw for the purpose of knocking him down again. A report, like a deck of cards, is not harmful, per se. It is the use of it afterwards that does the mischief. In pointing out some of the wrong uses to which they would be put, the reports themselves were incidentally referred to; that is all. Just why these six objections were picked out to answer at this time and others equally serious were passed by, the author of the bill may know, it's opponents do not. To show that the list of objections was only partial, note the following additional ones, which by no means exhausts the list: The bill seeks to bar the irrigators from the courts. The bill subverts local government and substitutes a commission. The bill repeals present laws and obliterates all precedents. The bill confers judicial powers on the board of engineers. The bill would materially add to the cost of water and increase taxation. The bill would unsettle questions and cause endless and expensive litigation. In short, there is little of good and much of evil in the measure, and it should not be passed.

Wait, "The Gold Fields" might not be correct if it's "Gold Fields."
