PROHIB FAILURE AT CORONA
After Four Months of Dry Weather There Seems to be a Lack of Jinglers in People's Pockets.
The following letter dealing with prohibition at Corona, which recently appeared in the Courier of that place, is handed in with a request on the part of numerous "heavy tax payers" for publication. Believing all sides entitled to impartial hearing, the request is politely complied with:
In Corona, it is said, there are twenty-four hundred people; of this number at least two thousand are lawyers, or so one would judge from the number of learned opinions one hears delivered on the street relative to the case shortly to come to trial for the supposed violation of the prohibition ordinance, and of those opinions no two are alike.
Of course, the facts of the case will all come out at the trial, and any opinion now rendered can be only speculative:
Corona has now had three months' of prohibition with the result that there is as much liquor drank here now, if not more, than during the high-license days when we had two saloons which turned into the coffers of the city no inconsiderable sum o' money.
The merchants are all tired of it; for men who were in the habit of coming to town to do their shopping now stay away for the reason that they no longer have the liberty to gratify their tastes. They go to other towns to buy their clothing, groceries and supplies rather than come to Corona where they will be spied upon as though they were common criminals. They can not process; therefore, no one should be permitted to drink at all."
The question at issue is this: "Can we afford to sacrifice our liberty to save the sot?"
Prohibition prohibits the sale of nice, cold beer and supplies its place with coffin-paint. A law cannot be enforced that is not already upheld by public opinion.
If you really want a sober town, hire the keepers of your blind tigers to put their booze on the sidewalks in buckets with tin dippers and a sign reading: 'Help yourselves; funerals furnished free!'
Men would then run away from the very smell of the stuff who now sneak up dirty alleys and pay for the privilege of poisoning themselves.
The great cry of the Prohibitionists is: "Save the boys; remove temptation from their path."
If I had a boy who wanted to go on a whiz and wasn't smart enough to find the means, despite the Prohibitionists, I would send him to the insane asylum.
If you want to save your boy, first get one whose brain-pan lies above his ears and then bring him up right. Don't tell him that all men who deal in liquor are emmisaries of hell and all who drink it sets. If you do, he'll soon find out you are a liar without sufficient intelligence to invent a dangerous falsehood, and he'll take off the muzzle.
There is far more liquor drank by boys now than in the high license days.
Legalize liquor and you will have some drunkards, no doubt, just as you have to-day. You will also have a revenue to help bear the burdens. Prohibit it, as we have seen here in Corona, and you will have the burdens without the revenue. Permit it, and you will have law-abiding citizens engaged in the traffic. Prohibit it, and you will have a lot of law-breakers on the one hand selling slum-gullion and pumping water from Miss Government to Engage in Irritation Upon Large Scale—Of Interest To Local Irrigators.
[CONTRIBUTED TO THE GAZETTE]
Minot, N. D., Sept. 7. — Twenty years ago, Major J. W. Powell greatest American irrigation author told the people of North Dakota their constitutional convention, plain facts about this semi-arid state which they were then loth to be but which have since proven otherwise. He told them that in the arn portion of the State they have to depend upon irrigation that in the eastern part they grow good crops with natural rain but that in the middle portion a tire dependence upon rainfall ultimately bring disaster; that would have a series of years there would be abundant crops then for a number of years there be scant rainfall when crops fall and disaster and discourage would overtake thousands of people Up and down the temperature of culture would rise and fall with seasons—the lean years and thirst." You will," he said, "hug to yourself the delusion that the climate is changing. This question is 4000 years old Nothing that man can do will change the climate. There is almost no rainfall, but one year and another need a little more than you get is flowing past you in your rivers. These words seem truly prophetic...

The merchants are all tired of it; for men who were in the habit of coming to town to do their shopping now stay away for the reason that they no longer have the liberty to gratify their tastes. They go to other towns to buy their clothing, groceries and supplies rather than come to Corona where they will be spied upon as though they were common criminals. They can not enter a place of business without being watched by one or more of those self-appointed guardians of public morals who now parade the street in the hope of by chance smelling out some place where illegal traffic in liquor is carried on.
It costs the merchant hundreds, yes, thousands of dollars, and it is no wonder they sigh for the days that are gone, when man walked the streets, the cheerful jingle of the guinea in his jeans and with the blessed privilege of going where ere he would in happy freedom, as all American sovereigns should do.
It is safe to say that, were the election held tomorrow, the prohibitionists would be overwhelmingly defeated.
In view of the present excitement anent the pending liquor case, it were not amiss to discuss this question. We may all honestly differ, but certainly honest discussion is a good thing and publicity never hurts a worthy cause.
The theory that drink is an unmixed evil must be abolished; it is not in accord with the genius of this Government, which would give to the individual untrammeled liberty in matters concerning himself. Experience has proven prohibition a rank failure and the customs of mankind from the very dawn of history brand it as a rotten fraud.
Prohibition can not withstand the light of logic, the lessons of experience, nor the crucible of the commonest kind of common sense.
Whenever a man opposes the plans of the Prohibitionists he is forthwith denounced as an enemy of morality, a slave of the saloons a hireling of the liquor interests. Well, I had rather be the emissary of the saloons than the assassin of liberty; the slave of a brewer than the blind peon of ignorant prejudice, while, if morality consists in attending to my neighbor's business, then I am ferninst it all the time.
I notice, as a rule, men who are against prohibition are men who were never in the gutter, while those who pick up a precarious living by chasing the Rum Demon have usually been his very humble slave.
It is the fellows who have made a failure of life, who live on donations, who weep over the world's wickedness; then take up a collection.
I am neither the friend nor enemy of liquor any more than I am the enemy or friend of buttermilk. I have drank both and have been unable to see that they did me any special good or harm.
The statistics furnished by the Prohl-
prohibition with the result that there is as much liquor drank here now, if not more, than during the high-license days when we had two saloons which turned into the coffers of the city no inconsiderable sum o' money.

THE RINGMASTER.
Don Marco's Estate.
A petition for probate of the late Don Marcoos A. Forster of Capistrano was filed at the county seat on Saturday by Scarborough & Forgy, acting as attorneys for John O. Forster, the petitioner.
The Forster estate is variously estimated at from $150,000 to $175,000, with about $50,000 of this amount personal property and the remainder real estate. The papers filed with the court give no appraisement of the property, but list among the various items 14,000 acres at the Rancho de la Playa at Capistrano, city lots at Los Angeles, San Diego, Capistrano and Santa Ana, a forty-acre ranch in San Luis Rey, $15,000 in life insurance, $20,000 worth of cattle on the Capistrano ranch, and various parcels of personal property of minor value.
The estate will be divided among six children, Marcos H., Frank A. John O., George and Lucana Forster of Capistrano and Mrs. Isidora de Echenique of El Paso, Tex. The Forster ranch is almost the last of the big Spanish grants in the county, and with the partition of the property among the children will probably be cut up into smaller sections and sold.
The Renewal a Strain.
Vacation is over. Againthe school bell rings at morning and at noon again with tens of thousandsthe hardest kind of work has begun,the renewal of which is a mental and physical strain to all except the most rugged. The little girl that a few days ago had roses in her cheeks,andthe little boy whose lips were then redyou would have insisted that they had been "kissed by strawberries,"have already lost somethingof appearanceof health.Nowis a time when many children should be given a tonicwhich may avert much serious trouble,andwe knowofno other so highlyto be recommendedas Hood's Sarasaparillawhich strengthensthe nervesperfect digestion and assimilation,and alds mental developmentby buildingupthe whole system.

I notice, as a rule, men who are against prohibition are men who were never in the gutter, while those who pick up a precarious living by chasing the Rum Demon have usually been his very humble slave.
It is the fellows who have made a failure of life, who live on donations, who weep over the world's wickedness; then take up a collection.
I am neither the friend nor enemy of liquor any more than I am the enemy or friend of buttermilk. I have drank both and have been unable to see that they did me any special good or harm.
The statistics furnished by the Prohibitionists are most fearfully and wonderfully made. They assert that millions die every year from the effects of strong drink. Facts show that many more die from overeating, or from eating improper food, than die from liquor.
If the Prohibitionists are trying to save the people of the land from early graves, let them reduce this people by a statutory law to a diet of buttermilk and corn bread. Let them bring their battering-rams to bear upon the toothsome mince pie, the railway sandwich, the hardboiled egg and the pickleed pigsfeet.
Indulgence is, indeed, as the Prohibitionists aver, fruitful source of crime, but indulgence in eating is just as bad as indulgence in drinking. Indigestion casts the black shadow of pessimism athwart the sunniest souls.
It would be better for this world if she reformers would spend more time in the kitehen. If a man be fit for treasons, strategies and spoils, when loaded with a half-pint of liquor, what must be the condition of his mind when he's full of sodden pie and half-baked beans.
So far as the writer hereof is concerned, he would care but little were every ounce of liquor banished from off the earth; but I do object to having a lot of he-virgins and female wall-flowers sit at my muzzle and dictate how I shall load myself. When I want advice about what I shall eat and drink I will consult a doctor of medicine and not a doctor of divinity.
I do not oppose prohibition because I am a friend of liquor, but because I am a friend of liberty. I would rather see a few boozers than a race of bondmen.
Stripped of all its superfluous trappings, the thesis of Prohibition is simply this: "Some men drink to ex-

Rocky Mountain snows are melting is the embodiment of power if no structure, tossing its tawny mane sweeps before it millions of tons earth, cutting out new channels building up new lands miles and mile in extent. Some day, it may be possible to put in a great dam a couple miles wide at one or two points where the river is confined between sandstone bluffs; but this would work which, while it would create great empire of its own, would make the Nile Dam, with is 25 million cost, sink into comparative insignificance.
But there are other means of making the Missouri contribute to America prosperity. Your correspondent fortunate enough to take a trip of a hundred miles up the river on a steer, piloted by the last of the old-river kings, Captain Grant Harsh; mous as a pilot and river explorer; der Custer, Forsyth, Sheridan, Mack and an important factor in many expeditions. There was little in mon in my uneventful trip and such one as when Captain Marsh brought back to Bismark the first news of dreadful Custer Massacre, which made 26 widows of army officers stationed Fort Lincoln, just across the river; brought likewise a score of wounded soldiers from Reno's detached troop. The Sioux have had their passing rancherers and farmers may dwelling till without fear of swift annihilation from marauding braves. But from pilot house of the little steamer I discern, in the not far future, a development along the Missouri, which would work a yet greater change than that of the past decade. For hundreds of miles the river is encompassed steep bluffs from 200 to 250 feet and from two to three miles apiece. Between these, the river winds stream of from a quarter to a half-wide gradually changing its course from side to side, but forming areas of "bench" lands, twenty-three and fifty feet high—hundreds of acres of acres of surpassingly fertile soil, needing only irrigation. And watering of this land turns out to among the easiest of projects.
Every bluff of the Missouri shows a coal vein of from 8 inches to 12 inches in thickness; in fact enourmouring North Dakota are underlain splendid lignite coal worth at the only a dollar a ton. There you b

IMPING WATER FROM MISSOURI
Government to Engage in Irrigation Upon Large Scale—Of Interest To Local Irrigators.
CONTRIBUTED TO THE GAZETTE]
In not, N. D., Sept. 7. — Twenty-five ago, Major J. W. Powell, the latest American irrigation authority, the people of North Dakota, at constitutional convention, some facts about this semi-arid section which they were then loth to believe, which have since proven only too He told them that in the west portion of the State they would depend upon irrigation and in the eastern part they could good crops with natural rainfall; that in the middle portion an independence upon rainfall mustunately bring disaster; that they had a series of years when would be abundant crops, and for a number of years there would cant rainfall when crops would and disaster and discouragement overtake thousands of people. And down the temperature of agriculture would rise and fall with the ones—the lean years and the fat. will," he said, "hug to yourselves elusion that the climate is changeless that man can do will change climate. There is almost enough all, but one year and another you a little more than you get. Itwing past you in your rivers."
These words seem truly prophetic as history of the Dakotas in particular.
It. The water of the Missouri, a limitless, ceaseless supply, just above it land, made by centuries of river sediment and immediately at hand, one of the cheapest known fuels to pump the water onto the land. It did not take an engineer to see the feasibility and cheapness of this undertaking.
But why, I asked myself, had it not been done? Why had not farmers themselves put in windmills and small pumps? Was there, after all, some unsurmountable obstacle? No. Talks with a few of them showed them as ignorant of irrigation and its simplicity as are the farmers of Vermont. In fact they were "rainfall" farmers and they spoke of irrigation as a mysterious and complicated process.
My return to Bismark justified my conclusions. I found two government engineers even then investigating the problem, and far beyond supplying the great areas of lower benches, they propose to elevate the water a hundred and possibly two hundred feet, out onto the great mesas. I left them preparing for a trip down the Missouri from the Dakota-Montana line, in a small skiff, on a careful reconnaissance of the Old Muddy, its tributaries and its lands. If they find conditions as favorable as they would seem, a party of surveyors will be put upon the project at once to make surveys and detailed plans, to be followed by the installation of giant pumps, water engines each of which will create a small river.
This work of the government is fraught with unbounded possibilities for North Dakota. A great empire lies latent in the midst of the State, the worth of which her own people are but beginning to comprehend. The fertility of the ages is stored in the ink-black soil and the water of half a continent flows by, an unused agent of wealth. The day of great things for the land of Laughing Water may be

Franchise for Electric Railway.
The Santa Ana Trustees on Saturday evening voted to offer for sale a franchise for an electric road upon Fourth street, as requested by Chief Engineer Pillsbury of the Huntington system, who was present with George A. Egar, acting president of the local Chamber of Commerce, to put the matter before the board.
The franchise to be offered provides for a single or double track on Fourth street, starting from the easterly city limits and running west to the end of the street, thence cutting across private right of way and crossing Fifth street and proceeding again over private road to the westerly city limits. Further provisions are that cars shall run at least every two hours, may carry passengers, mall, and other commodities, that a 5-cent fare shall be maintained, that after 5 years 2 per cent. of the gross earnings shall be given to the city, and that work shall be commenced within four months and completed within three years.
Bids will be opened for the sale of the franchise on October 17. The route asked for is the one over which the Pacific electric has made surveys for the entrance of its line to Santa Ana from Los Angeles, and Mr. Pillsbury stated that the local road would be part of the Huntington interurban system. The complete right of way for the Los Angeles-Santa Ana line, upon which a committee of the Chamber of Commerce has been at work for the past year, has not yet been entirely secured, but at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce this week a resolution was
cant rainfall when crops would and disaster and discouragement and overtake thousands of people. And down the temperature of agriculture would rise and fall with the seasons—the lean years and the fat will,” he said, “hug to yourselves elusion that the climate is change.” This question is 4000 years old. Being that man can do will change climate. There is almost enough rain, but one year and another you a little more than you get. It swing past you in your rivers.” These words seem truly prophetic as history of the Dakotas is reviewed, 25 years. The lean years came the fat years—the years when there plenty of rain and the soil produced fertility, and the cycles of lean came, when the farmers watched in for the fructifying rainfall and crops burned to a brown and a sand finally they abandoned their crops by hundreds and by thousands. For three years in succession during period, I was told, land which be-land since yielded 20 bushels of per acre, produced but two poor bushels, while thousands of acres were even harvested.
And the wealth of an empire is going to the rivers as Major Powell stated using uselessly to the ocean. That parent enough to anyone visiting country. How to get the water the land is the question. For the reason that dry farming may need, but little interest has been in irrigation. But the farmers North Dakota are awakening. They realizing that it is a false pride proclaims that irrigation is not used, for with irrigation they will be safe and sure crop and one vast resource productive. The business men are beginning to see that small intensively cultivated and made induce the maximum yield, contribute more to the growth and up-ing of the State than do large farms, half farmed, or wild hay land. Certain western Senator, in a room conversation on irrigation interlater, stated it as his belief that Missouri could be damned at varolnts and all its flood waters saved irrigation. This statesman was far, far west, where all things easily possible. The Missouri is a yellow giant. It flows through Dakota, even in low water time. No mill-race, in which a strong mer may perhaps trust himself, he swept down stream as fast as a can run. In flood, when the Mountain snows are melting, it embodiment of power if not deni- tion, tossing its tawny mane as it is before it millions of tons of cutting out new channels and digging up new lands miles and miles sent. Some day, it may be pos-solutely put in a great dam a couple of wide at one or two points where river is confined between high one bluffs; but this would be a which, while it would create a empires of its own, would make little Dam, with is 25 millions of sink into comparative insignifi- cation surveyors will be put upon the project at once to make surveys and detailed plans, to be followed by the installation of giant pumps, water engines each of which will create a small river.

Cure For Codlin Moth
George Compere, that indefatigable searcher after enemies of scale pests, has discovered a South American parasite for Codlin Moth. Mr. Compere is employed jointly by the state of California through Horticultural Commissioner Cooper and by West Australia to find beneficial insects that prey upon scale insects.
The genuineness of the discovery is vouched for by the fact that the apple orchards that are the habitat of the newly found parasite bring 95 per cent. of their fruit to maturity.
In California and all other portions of the world hitherto the product of the world's apple and pear has not been more than 30 to 35 per cent of the promise of the setting.
Mr Compere has sailed for West Australia, acting under the direction of Elwood Cooper, to forward to San Francisco the first colonies of the codlin moth's invincible foes.
Desiccated Fruit
The Department of Agriculture has issued the following notice:
"The governments of Prussia and Saxony, in order to unify the practices of inspectors of desiccated fruits, have issued decrees fixing the limit of sulphurous acid in desiccated fruits at .125 per cent. The exporters of such products from the United States are asked to take notice of this regulation and refrain from sending to the countries named desiccated fruits containing an amount of sulphurous acid in excess of that mentioned above.
"By authority of Congress, the Department of Agriculture will inspect cargoes of desiccated fruits intended for exportation, free of charge to exporters who may request such inspection.
"On application to the Bureau of Chemistry, all necessary blanks will be sent. Exporters are urged, in order to avoid refusal or confiscation by other countries, to avail themselves of this opportunity to ascertain before shipment the percentage of sulphurous acid contained in the goods intended to be exported."

But from the house of the little steamer I could see, in the not far future, a development along the Missouri, which work a yet greater change than the past decade. For hundreds of years the river is encompassed by bluffs from 200 to 250 feet high from two to three miles apart. When these, the river winds, a mile from a quarter to a half mile gradually changing its course side to side, but forming great "bench" lands, twenty, thirty-feet high—hundreds of thousands of surpassingly fertile feeding only irrigation. And the king of this land turns out to be the easiest of projects.
My bluff of the Missouri showed vein of from 6 inches to 12 feet thickness; in fact ennourishment with North Dakota are underlain with solid lignite coal, worth at the mine dollar a ton. There you have Chemistry, all necessary blanks will be sent.

Protection From Overflow
With the approach of the winter season agitation is again being commenced with reference to the matter of preventing possible overflows of the Santa Ana river. In past years when the rains have been heavy the water has frequently surged over the banks and done damage to neighboring property. The general expectation is that the coming winter will be marked by heavydownpours and should such prove to be the case the losses might be serious. The chamber of commerce of this city has taken up the matter and at its last meeting appointed a committee to confer with similar committees from the chambers at Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton. It is expected that these committees will present a memorial to the Supervisors asking that necessary work on the river bed be done to keep within bounds the anticipated storm waters.

Washington Time.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—Promptly at midnight tonight a signal was sent to all points of the world from the Naval Observatory here, telling the various countries of the earth that it was 12 o'clock, midnight, in Washington. The signal was sent over about 300,000 miles of wires and cables, touching San Francisco,Honolulu and Guam to the west; New York,the Azores,Lisbon,Snez,Bombay,Singapore,Hongkong and Manila to the east; Galveston,City of Mexico,Panama,Lima,Peru,Valparaiso Chile and Buenos Aires to the south; and over the Canadian lines and the new government line to Dawson and other points in Alaska to the north. Another circuit will be connected touching Greenwich England,and the other observatories of Europe.
This feat was attempted on January 1,and was successful, except so far east where the war news occupied the wires to such an extent that they could not be used for the purpose. The affair was planned in honor of the representatives of the National Geographical Society,which is holding sessions in Washington.
New Bank Organized
Fullerton will soon have a new bank. It will have a paid up capital of $25,000 and the stock has all been subscribed by local men.
