MOSSBACKS? NITI WHAT MERRITT AND CROWTHER HAD TO SAY ABOUT IT. Hildebrandt Had Not Seen Twelve People on Hermine-Street in Twelve Years. Franke Wants Saloon License. A delegation of property owners residing on the west side of Hermine street, where city council intends laying a cement sidewalk, appeared before council at its meeting on Tuesday evening and entered formal protest against laying such sidewalks. Protestants were headed by Attorney Chynoweth, and among them were Wm. Crowther, Henry Hildebrandt, Fred Rimpau and others. Chynoweth began proceedings by stating his clients were present for the purpose of protesting against such sidewalks as council proposed laying on the west side of Hermine street. Mr. Crowther arose and said he desired to protest against such sidewalks because he did not believe walks were necessary. There were no residences upon that side of the street, only barns, hen-coops and out houses. A sidewalk would, he thought, be a detriment rather than an advantage. His rents would not be increased a dollar by such walks, yet the same would cost him in the neighborhood of $100. The property had been unprofitable to him for years, it had hardly paid taxes. "The city clerk has been ungentlemanly enough," he continued, "to refer to us as mossbacks. We are not mossbacks, and I think the city clerk is very ungentlemanly to refer to us that way." City Clerk Merritt, looking up from his minute book—What's that you say, Mr. Crowther? Crowther—I say I am informed that you have referred to us as mossbacks. Merritt—The man who says so is a liar! Crowther said he did not make the statement of his own knowledge, but he had been so informed. Merritt again denied it emphatically. Fred Rimpau made similar objections, adding he did not have the oll council could stand a month for street-oiling purposes. He said he had used three this month, and could have used ten. The clerk was instructed to correspond with the oil people and ascertain whether the city was good for ten cars of oil, until tax harvest in November. The report of the Hartford steam boiler inspector company relative to condition of city boilers, was read and filed. Boilers were reported to be in good condition. A little scale was discovered, but not of any serious consequence. Some attention should be given to brick work. Filed. Joe Thompson was given a ten days' leave of absence to attend the national guard encampment. In the absence of Mayor Rust, who is in the Klondike, Trustee Fletcher occupied the chair. Tyler and Darling were present. Berdrow was kept at home with an attack of the measles. Tyler reporting for the committee on public improvements said some streets were being oiled and others graded. Bills to amount of $108.78 were audited and ordered paid. Adjourned. STREET FAIR THE FAKE LIMIT. Gang of Ham Fatters Hold Town Captive Two Days—People Broke For the Hills. "Don't rub it into us too hard," said one of the street fair performers on Monday morning, as the outfit were about pulling out of town, "for we expect to play a return engagement here, and wouldn't like to be queered at the jump-off." Nevertheless it is the plain unvarnished truth that if ever the same aggregation strikes this town people will break for the hills. It is doubtful if citizens of the community will stand for any more such "attractions" in future. The balloon ascension scheduled for 2 o'clock on Saturday afternoon, proved to be nothing but an arrant piece of deception. At 6 o'clock the fires had not been started for inflating it. A large crowd had been kept ready to witness the ascension since early in the afternoon. At 7 o'clock it was seen the balloon was not being properly inflated, and a half hour later the ascension was called off. It was announced that two ascensions would be bad on Sunday, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. ANDERSON NOMINEE OF SENATORIAL CONVENTION Orange County Votes For Him, and Riverside County Falls Gracefully Into Line John N. Anderson of Santa Ana was on Saturday at Orange nominated by the Thirty-ninth senatorial district public convention as the party's candidate for state senator from the district comprising Orange and Riverside counties. Anderson defeated Richard Melrose of this city for the nomination, having the city of Santa Ana solidly backed him, and that town, true to its past political hoggishness, in never failing take a political office when occasion offered, fell in behind its man and succeeded in noshing him out ahead at the finish. Melrose left the convention Santa Ana the Saturday before with four delegates pledged to him and six surances from two others that they would support him. At Orange, seeing he had no chance of securing a major delegate, he withdrew at a cusc of the delegation held immediately before the assembling of the senatorial convention. The convention was called to order by Melrose, who was the only member of the senatorial committee, appointed by the senatorial convention of Riverside four years ago, who was present S. O. Walker was chosen chairman of the meeting, and Peter Milliken Hemet secretary. It was eleven o'clock before the convention proceeded to business, and the work before it was rushed through without the usual adjournment for lunch. The following committees were also pointed: Order of business — Walter Gregg Orange; George Thacker, Corona; Dickelek, Anaheim; Jerome Fulson Garden Grove and Chauncey McFarland, Riverside. Credentials—William Collier, River side; T. E. Niles, Westminster, S.; White, Riverside; George Angle, S.; Joaquin, and H. K. Small, Riverside. Resolutions: Bryant Williams, Orange; George Frost, Riverside; Getty, Tustin; F. W. Mansur, San Ana, and George B. Hannahs, San Clinto. The chair announced that the convention would stand adjourned to 1 o'clock. A Riverside delegate—Oh, let's go mossbacks, and I think the city clerk is very ungentlemanly to refer to us that way." City Clerk Merritt, looking up from his minute book—What's that you say, Mr. Crowther? Crowther—I say I am informed that you have referred to us as mossbacks. Merritt—The man who says so is a liar! Crowther said he did not make the statement of his own knowledge, but he had been so informed. Merritt again denied it emphatically. Fred Rimpau made similar objections, adding he did not have the money to pay for sidewalks. Henry Hildebrandt said sidewalks would injure instead of improve his property. He had lived on his place twelve years, and did not believe he had seen twelve people walking in the thoroughfare where sidewalks are now contemplated. Darling said these people had all had time to appear before council to protest against this work, but had delayed coming in until council had definitely decided to do the work in question. City Attorney Melrose pointed out that the protestants are within their legal rights in protesting at this meeting. Tyler said these people had his sympathy, but he was disinclined to acced to the protest, for the reason that other objectors would speedily arise to hamper the work of council in laying sidewalks. Fletcher was opposed to calling a halt in sidewalks, and cited numerous instances in Southern California towns where sidewalks had improved value of property. The town is going ahead. More houses are going up than ever before. Sidewalks ought to be laid—the more the better for the city. A discussion arose between Attorneys Melrose and Chynoweth relative to complaints involved in the case. The former contended that if cement work stopped on the west side of the street, work would also have to stop on the east side, for the reason that the resolution adopted by council referring to work on Hermine street provided for walks on each side of the street. Chynoweth held that council could grant the petition of protestants, construct no walks on the west side of the street, and yet require walks to be constructed on the east side of the thoroughfare. A further discussion ensued, when Darling moved the petition be denied. It was seconded by Tyler and carried. Darling said, after the withdrawal of the objectors, that most of them were well able to pay for the walks. They may be entitled to sympathy, but sympathy never built up a town. The matter of Herr Fossek’s demand for back salary went over without action. An application was read from J. Fred Franke asking that a saloon license be granted to him, the same to be maintained in the Boege building in the West End. Tyler moved it be denied. The balloon ascension scheduled for 2 o’clock on Saturday afternoon, proved to be nothing but an arrant piece of deception. At 6 o’clock the fires had not been started for inflating it. A large crowd had been kept ready to witness the ascension since early in the afternoon. At 7 o’clock it was seen the balloon was not being properly inflated, and a half hour later the ascension was called off. It was announced that two ascensions would be had on Sunday, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Another large crowd was in town again, but up to the noon hour nothing like an ascension seemed to be in prospect. About 1 o’clock Prof. Mars made a successful ascension and parachute jump, going up about 1500 feet and descending successfully. Another attempt was made to send the balloon up again at 7:30 in the evening, and although the big bag seemed to have been properly inflated, the ascension was marred by an accident. When the aeronaut had risen to an altitude of 100 feet, it was seen the canvas had been ripped and the balloon began descending slowly. Mars was precipitated against a high Eucalyptus tree in front of Dr. Paschall’s residence, and had difficulty in extricating himself. The balloon had been ripped by the interior pole and after passing over the trees swept against the trees in the school yard. Mars was quite severely injured. The balloon lodged in one of the pepper trees in the school yard, and Mars climbed down to terra firma as best he could. His body was wrenched, and he narrowly escaped serious if not fatal injury. He was taken to his hotel and put to bed. The high dive was performed on Saturday evening but was cut out of Sunday’s program owing to the accident to Mars, who was the principal feature and owner of the show. Mars’ real name is Baldwin. He is one of the famous Baldwin family of aeronauts. Numerous boots were occupied by barkers during the two days, and many a dime taken from the unwary. There was too much noise, too many skin games, too much rowdyism to sit well on the stomachs of citizens of the burg.

Joquin, and H.K. Small, Riverside. Resolutions: Bryant Williams, O. ange; Frost, Riverside; R. Anna, and George B. Hannahs, San cito. The chair announced that the convention would stand adjourned to 1 o’clock. A Riverside delegate—Oh, let’s go through. The chair—What’s the pleasure of the convention? A brief discussion ensued, when the convention decided to take an adjournment of twenty minutes to give committee time to report. On re-assembling, at half-past fivethe committee on permanent organization and order of business reported recommending that the temporary officers of the convention be made permanent. The recommendation was proved. The committee on credentials ported, seating twelve delegates from Orange county and eleven from Riverside. Bryant Williams, chairman of committee on resolutions, read the lowing report: “Resolved, we hereby affirm our allegiance to the republican party,” its principles, indorsing and approving the action of the present national ministration and the courage and triumph of our distinguished presider who assumed the burdens of his office when the nation was stricken the loss of his eminent and distinguished predecessor. “Resolved, that we endorse and prove the labors of our distinguishing senators and representatives in our grass.” “Resolved, that speaking in name of the republicans of this ninth senatorial district, we declare choice for United States senator, elected at the coming session of this legislature of this State, to be Hon. Thomas R. Bard, the incumbent His high character, his long and useful career in public and private pursuit his tried integrity, and proved relicism, his present advantageous office position, and his strong hold upon popular heart, make him, in our judgment, the most available candidatethe south end of the state. “And the nominee of this convention is instructed to vote for and use his fluence for his re-election.” “Resolved that the nominee of this convention is hereby instructed to participate and abide by the decision majority of the caucus of the republican legislators of Southern Californiafor the purpose of selecting a candidate for the election of a United States senator.” “Resolved that we endorse the active work of the Hon. A. A. Caldwellin the state senate for the past years.” The resolution concerning a legislative caucus was vigorously oppose James Mills and William CollieRiverside and Butt-in Ball of South Ana. George Frost of Riverside fenced the caucus. He wanted the nomination of this convention to go into caucus abide by its result. He wanted It was seconded by Tyler and carried. Darling said, after the withdrawal of the objectors, that most of them were well able to pay for the walks. They may be entitled to sympathy, but sympathy never built up a town. The matter of Herr Fossek's demand for back salary went over without action. An application was read from J. Fred Franke asking that a saloon license be granted to him, the same to be maintained in the Boege building in the West End. Tyler moved it be denied. Darling—It means an addition of $50 per month to the city treasury. Tyler opposed the issue of the license, while Darling rather favored it, saying if the place were not run according to provisions of the ordinance license could be revoked. Tyler was unable to get a second for his motion and withdrew it. Darling moved the license be granted. No second. The matter went over without action until next meeting. Fletcher brought up the matter of Fischer's license, saying he had been informed that gentleman was disposing of liquor at retail, and should consequently pay the regular license. He asked the marshal if he had ever attempted to collect license from Fischer. The marshal said he had, but that Fischer made the claim that he sold nothing less than a gallon, and the liquor was of his own manufacture. Consequently he could not collect rental license. Darling suggested Fischer should be called upon by the marshal and license collected under provisions of city ordinance. Council voted to sit as a board of equalization, beginning the second Monday in August. Resolutions of intention to do street work were read and adopted. The work embraces laying cement walks on Hermine, Broadway, Claudina, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Center, Lemon and other streets. The official resolution will be found published in another column. The marshal asked how many cars of that incorporation is to acquire lands in Orange County and develop water thereon, to acquire water and water rights, etc. Principal place of business in Sec. 21, T. 4 S., R. 10 W., S.

On the Fourth at Fullerton an enterprising young fellow blew into that town and observing the picturesque outlines of Jake Stern's spavined mule, determined to turn the animal to good use as long as the crowd lasted. He asked Stern for the use of it during the day. The latter, thinking the young fellow desired the mule for the parade of horribles, acquiesced, and thought no more about it until late in the afternoon he espied a great crowd about an attraction which seemed to draw sight-seers from all over town. Walking up to the scene of hilarity, Stern observed his friend spieling about "the great Bono," "the only living animal of its kind in captivity." He paid ten cents and entered the amphitheater, saw his spavined mule, giving attention to a bale of hay placed before him, and a number of people wondering what kind of an animal it was. It was a funny sight to those who parted company with their dimes—so they said. But to the spieler it meant business. He cleaned up $70 as a result of the proceedings.
