Young Button, who left Colton a year ago and set out to see the world as a sailor, had already "roughed it" on three continents. In his last letter dated Canary Islands, MR. KROEGER ON WATER SUPPLIERS WITH OPINION ENGINEER MENDENHALLE True, Water is Steadily Lowering the Cause is Laid at Doors of Drainage Districts in the Peatlands. EDITOR GAZETTE—In your week's paper is a statement concerning our pumping plants from Civil Engineer Mendenhall's report about underground water supply which may some correction. It is true that water is sinking rapidly, but this is the entire fault of the pumping plant which in and around Anaheim pumping about 2000 inches of water. These plants are not in operation the time as you well know, but when the water is required for irrigation. The most serious waste of underground water is through drainage canals in the Peatland. When I had some business there or seven years ago, and saw the Regular meeting of the board of directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company was held Dec. 3rd, with the following members present: Crowther, Hale, Kraemer, Sherwood and Zeyn. The minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved. The ditch committee orally recommended the raising of the cement ditch as petitioned for by the stockholders of the Katella Water Company. Moved by Kraemer, seconded by Zeyn, that the company raise the ditch fourteen inches and as far back as necessary. Carried. The written report of the ditch committee was referred back to the committee, to report at next meeting. J. B. Rea appeared before the board asking that a pipe be put in where the section line crosses the Garden Grove road. On motion the superintendent was instructed to put in a pipe for a distance of 50 feet at the crossing of the section line with the Garden Grove road, said pipe to be 20 inches in diameter, and a bill for one-half of the expense be presented to the company. The report of the finance committee was received and filed, and warrants were ordered drawn in payment of the various amounts as therein recommended. On motion the president and secretary were authorized to issue a warrant for sum of $52.00 in favor of Tarver Montgomery for engineering. The report of the treasurer was received and filed. It showed cash in treasury amounting to $9308.86. The secretary's report was received and filed. J. B. Neff asked the privilege of purchasing from the company 25 barrels of cement to be used for a ditch on his ranch. Petition was granted. A communication from the Olinda Land Company called attention to the cutting of our ditches where the same pass through the lands of said company, and asked that the same be stopped. On motion referred to the ditch committee. A complaint was read from the present owner of the Schwentker place that a large stream of water had been running for an afternoon and night on his place to his damage. The secretary was instructed to inform him that this company would see that it should not occur again. A communication from H. W. Krug et al asked that a ditch be cemented on the usual terms. Similar petitions were received from W. A. Wallace for a ditch along his place, and from Geo. Bauer et al for the cementing of a ditch leading to their lands. Referred to the ditch committee. J. P. Zeyn asked that a ditch be cemented leading to his property in Fullerton. He explained that at each irrigation he suffers a loss of about 25 inches of water, and that he is willing to pay one-half of the total cost of constructing the ditch. Referred to the ditch committee. Moved by Hale, seconded by Kraemer, that the superintendent appoint Mr. Miller as zaniero in Anaheim to A Grewsome Hoax Roswell Button of Colton, a globe trotting lad aged 17 years, is reported to have been murdered, together with several shipmates, off Puerto de la Luz. Canary Islands. Young Button, who left Colton a year ago and set out to see the world as a sailor, had already "roughed it" on three continents. In his last letter dated Canary Islands, October 23, he wrote his sister Mrs. McGill, that he was tired of traveling and anxious to get back home. He said they were about to leave for Cuba and added significantly: "I will be very glad, for the people here are all Spaniards and they don't like the Yankees. Life is almost unbearable." It is supposed Button and his companions were murdered by the Spanish islanders through hatred growing out of the late war. They were sailing the American bark Ida. The State Department will be asked to make a rigid investigation. On Button's body was found the address of his sweetheart, Effe Burbank of Anaheim, and to her came the first news of the butchery. Rural Free Delivery Following is an abstract of the annual report of the Fourth Assistant Postmaster-General, J. L. Bristow: Extension of the rural free delivery service has resulted in an increase of 125 in the number of post offices discontinued during the fiscal year ending July 30. During the year, there were 2549 post offices established and 5587 discontinued. There was a decrease of 158 in the number of offices established. The principal cause of the increase in discontinuances has been the extension of the rural free delivery service. The total number of discontinuances was 3750 post offices, with a saving in salaries of postmaaters aggregating $171,121. At the close of the fiscal year, there were 71,122 post offices in the United States, 265 first-class, 1204 second-class, 3896 third class and 65,766 fourth class. Operation of rural mail delivery and the extension by private interests of rural telephone service has created a demand from patrons of rural routes for delivery of small packages of merchandise, on an order to local merchants by postal card, telephone or otherwise. The value of such packages is small, and the present rate of 1 cent per ounce, is practically prohibitive. Mr. Bristow recommends that Congress fix a rate of 3 cents per pound or any fraction thereof on packages not exceeding five pounds, mailed at the distributing postoffice of any rural free delivery route. If this special rate were established, Mr. Bristow says, it would be a great convenience to patrons and become a source of revenue to the department. It is estimated that $500,000 will be needed by the department to continue the establishment of rural routes as our pumping plants from Civil Power Mendenhall's report about underground water supply which in and around Anaheim pumping about 2000 inches of water. These plants are not in operation; the timer as you well know, but when the water is required for irrigation. The most serious waste of underground water is through drainage canals in the Peatland. When I had some business there or seven years ago, and saw that an amount of water in their first big canal, I was astonished. It was run from four to five thousand inches of water—why, a little steamboat can run on it. This water is run steady, night and day, through a whole year without interruption, and felt sorry to see this fine stream ning into the ocean, and thought it around here could have this water irrigation what a benefit it would for this country. Since that time drainage districts have been formed and I do not know how many more nails are running at the present time. The settlers in the Peatlands have succeeded very well in making their dry—they have succeeded beyond expectation—and today are praying rain to make the celery grow. I think our supervisors have made a great take in granting those drainage districts, and ought to do all in this power to stop if they can. In 1862 the water in my well was feet from the surface. From that time it fell steadily up to 1868 to 30 feet low. After 1868 it rose again up 1875, when it was higher than ever fore—only 12 feet in my well. As water then got a smell of the gray yard, I had a deep well bored to feet deep, and have not measured its slinking of water until about six months ago, when Mr. Seale found that he 71 feet below the surface, and that it is 72 feet. So you see it is sinkingly rapidly, and if it is going at its rate in a few years our drinking water will be scarce. But underground supply will run as long as there drop of water on the surface of Santa Ana river. Our government is spending millions of dollars at the present time to crease the water supply, while in county our authorities try by all me to destroy it. It is high time this practice was stopped.

Referred to the ditch committee. Moved by Hale, seconded by Kraemer, that the superintendent appoint Mr. Miller as zanjero in Anaheim, to take the place of O. Dement. Carried. On motion the petitions for the transfer of stock were granted, the transfers to be made as soon as the water accounts shall be paid up. On motion the meeting adjourned. P. H. KRICK, Secy.
