NEW TELEPHONE POLES CAUSE SMALL WARCLOUD Mr. Rea Causes Cessation of Work on Broadway—Street Superintendent Passes It Up to the City Trustees When the gang of Sunset Telephone men reached the corner of Broadway and Los Angeles streets on Tuesday morning, in their work of setting new telephone poles along the south side of that thoroughfare, J. B. Rea appeared and entered a protest to placing the poles on that side of the street. He maintained that inasmuch as the telephone company at present maintains its poles along the north side of Broadway, alongside those of the municipal electric poles, the company should maintain its poles on that side of the street, and not unduly disfigure the thoroughfare by having one set of poles on one side of the street and another on the other. W. C. Ross, who is in charge of the telephone men, said the company was putting in new poles, on opposite sides of streets from the electric poles, for reasons of safety. No objection had been made by any other property owner in town, but, he added, as the company had only four phones on the East Broadway line, he declared it was immaterial to the company whether the poles on that street, between Los Angeles and Olive, be left on the north side of the street or be removed to the south side. The company had only four phones on the line, and the old poles and wires were strong enough to maintain them. But if additional phones were desired on the line, the demand could not be met, for the old equipment had not the capacity for a single additional phone. The matter was referred to Street Superintendent Steadman, who after consideration, told Ross not to change should lie direct from this court of first instance to the Supreme Court of the United States, and every process from the filing of a suit to perfecting an appeal should be safeguarded against technicality and delay. The railroads and the people by this time understand that the property of both is touched in the making of rates and that property is put under judicial protection by the fourteenth amendment of the Federal constitution. It is this knowledge that inspires President Ripley's decision to submit to no decree affecting the property that he represents, except a judicial decree. He is perfectly right and within his rights. If he, representing property, assent to a control affecting it seriously, that is not judicial, he would be transferring it from judicial to executive or legislative control, depriving it of the judicial protection guaranteed by the constitution. His purpose is no less protective of his own property than it is of the property of the contesting fruit growers. His conclusion is in line with the spirit of American law, however much it may be a present disappointment to the orange growers. The incident is of vast importance, not only to California but to the whole country. It is the beginning of an end which will bring order out of chaos and make straight that which is crooked. It will finally appear to everybody that the President saw far into this great question. On one side of it is socialism, as may be plainly seen in the declarations of Senator Patterson, Mr. Hearst and Mr. Bryan. If it be left for a socialistic solution all of the wisdom of the law and all of its safeguards of property will be thrown to the winds and, in the language of Mr. Jack London, "All property will be confiscated." Against this is the wise projection of legal principles to cover the new problems that inhere in the system of transportation, the power to make rates, and in the combinations of capital. This is the policy of the President, and the country must choose between these two, for there is no middle ground. The orange rate case may well prove to have been an epoch making contest. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IN REGULAR SESSION An Interesting Session of Our Producers of Good Government—Even on the Alert for the City's Welfare and Upbuilding The directors of the Chamber Commerce met in regular session their quarters Thursday evening. Present, Directors Ahlborn, W. Dr. Adams, Wallop, Miller, Mild Grim and Henry Adams. Secretary Michod read the minutes of the previous meeting which approved. President Ahlborn appointed those lowing to act as chairmen of committees they in turn to name two agents: Finance—W. Wallop. Improvements—Mr. Michod. Merchandise—C. F. Grim. Manufacture—E. Miller. Entertainment—H. Adams Transportation — W. Adams. Railway — F. J. Ahlborn. Judge Howard appeared and asked the chamber's co-operation in securing a Carnegie library. The subject discussed at length, and the secretary was instructed to write Carnegie's reticacy to ascertain what the life promoter would do for us. Some calities, it was said, are desirous owing their connection with these objects, because they have to provide equal sum to that furnished by Cogle, which to them is a burden some instances donations are made right, which it is thought would more to our advantage. The swine will receive further attention later. Judge Howard also brought up matters of providing a hitching raft which farmers may tie their hooks when in town. The building or rack was favorably considered and matter was referred to Director Mulligan of the improvement committee. Agent Darling of this city and Harris of the Southern Pacific office Los Angeles appeared before the Broadway line, he declared it was im-material to the company whether the poles on that street, between Los Angeles and Olive, be left on the north side of the street or be removed to the south side. The company had only four phones on the line, and the old poles and wires were strong enough to maintain them. But if additional phones were desired on the line, the demand could not be met, for the old equipment had not the capacity for a single additional phone. The matter was referred to Street Superintendent Steadman, who after consideration, told Ross not to change the poles to the south side of the street where objection had been made to them. The street superintendent, whose residence is situate on the south side of Broadway near this point, said he was personally not opposed to having poles in front of his property, but he nevertheless advised Ross not to place the poles on that side of the street. Ross said he would lay the matter before the city trustees at their next meeting. Rea declared he would not permit the poles in front of his residence, situate on the south side of Broadway, at the corner of Philadelphia street. Property in that locality was too valuable in his opinion to be disfigured by unsightly telephone poles. He said he would get his six-shooter and prevent men from placing poles there. Ross moved his men to West Broadway, where new forty-foot poles are being set along the south side of the street. IGNORING INTERSTATE LAW The Interstate Commerce Commission has decided against the Santa Fe railway in the question of orange freights from California. The decision also includes the Southern Pacific and is to the effect that the rates are too high, and that the shipper and not the railroad should control the routing of the fruit. This comes at the end of a long fight in which both sides have been heard by the commission. The Southern Pacific has not yet declared what course it will pursue, but the Santa Fe is more prompt. President Ripley of the latter road in an interview in Chicago says: "Of course we shall ignore the decision of the commission and rely on the courts for justice, for we desire to be just." There is more in this than appears in the lines. It is perfectly safe to ignore a decision of the commission for its powers are limited. It may hear and decide such cases, but the proceeding is hardly more than academic, for the body has no power to enforce its decrees. The commission was an experiment. It was not originally clothed with power to enforce its decisions and has remained merely a means of securing publicity. In that respect it has done good service and has put many issues in shape to be considered by the courts. But issues cannot go from it to property will be thrown to the whites and, in the language of Mr. Jack London, "All property will be confiscated." Against this is the wise projection of legal principles to cover the new problems that inhere in the system of transportation, the power to make rates, and in the combinations of capital. This is the policy of the President, and the country must choose between these two, for there is no middle ground. The orange rate case may well prove to have been an epoch making contest. WATER EMPLOYES FILE NEW BOND Railway Company Asked to Construct Culvert to Connect With New Cement Ditch. Anaheim, Cal., March 4, 1905. Regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Co. with the following members present, namely Crowther, Bradford, Hale, Kraemer, Sherwood, McDermont, Zeyn The superintendent was instructed to put in a gate for J. Fiscus. The secretary was instructed to notify the irrigators along the ditch between C. C. Chapman's and O. Des Granges' that they will be held responsible for damages done by water turned into the ditches by them. The matter of moving the ditch on Fairview Avenue was left in the hands of the ditch committee with power to act. The report of the finance committee was received and filed. It showed demands on the treasury amounting to $3922.96 with available cash $9116.45. Demands on the treasury were ordered paid as recommended by the committee and in addition the bills of L. E. Miller for hardware, $24.60 and C. W. Stadtegger, tools and hardware, $30.75. Reports of the secretary, treasurer and superintendent were each in turn received and filed. A petition from J. J. Hunter asking privilege of purchasing 20 bbls of cement was granted. A petition from E. Kosert et al asking that a ditch be cemented from East street to Olive street along Santa Ana street was referred to the ditch committee. A communication from C. E. Stone offered to plant and care for ornamental trees around the cottage at the reservoir provided the company will purchase the same. Referred to the ditch committee to investigate as to the most suitable variety to be planted and report at next meeting. A communication from M. P. Thye & Co. relating to the proposed pumping plant was placed on file. Judge Howard also brought up matter of providing a hitching raft which farmers may tie their when in town. The building or rack was favorably considered and matter was referred to Director M. Of the improvement committee. Agent Darling of this city and Harris of the Southern Pacific of Los Angeles appeared before the chamber in reference to the Esch-Town bill now before congress, and praised a resolution, antagonistic to measure, and asked the chamber to prove the same. The bill is anti-road and provides for the readjustment of freights and fares. It is the consolation opinion among fruit growers about that the new order of this just what they have been praying! these many years, and Mr. H arguments fell upon deaf ears, The chamber laid the motion by for future consideration. Railway officials had resolutions to liken from other chambers of mercy to send on to Washington they wanted one from this city too bill will come up before the extrusion of congress. Communication was received by Los Angeles chamber of commerce reference to the water congress held in that city on the 13th instilling that a delegation be sent to sent this valley. The following tlemen were named: P. H. Kriff B. Rea and C. O. Rust. Mr. Miller spoke in reference location of the new gas plant. He objection has arisen in some quarrel being claimed the odor from plant is obnoxious. He asked committee be appointed to visit towns where plants are operated company to defray half of the ex-—to ascertain whether the odor hindrance or not. Messrs. Re Johnston and Adams, Grim and lum were appointed such committees. The dredging of the bed of the Ana river was referred to at length danger exists from overflow were heavy rains. Richard Melrose appointed a committee to inthe supervisors and endeavor to assistance from the county in cthe debris from the river. New signboards are to be placed on railway depots, the ones being antiquated and need remodel and the population figures no hancing, for we are growing members were admonished to place board and report at next m A couple of show cases are to be used in exhibitions acquisitions to displays. An agreement was entered into tween the chamber and Herr Berger, wherein latter is given rent and $5 per month, he in re-care for the exhibits, but, as a facetiously interjected, not to There is more in this than appears in the lines. It is perfectly safe to ignore a decision of the commission for its powers are limited. It may hear and decide such cases, but the proceeding is hardly more than academic, for the body has no power to enforce its decrees. The commission was an experiment. It was not originally clothed with power to enforce its decisions and has remained merely a means of securing publicity. In that respect it has done good service and has put many issues in shape to be considered by the courts. But issues cannot go from it to the courts by the ordinary incidents of appeal. Parties interested must reach a judicial finding by beginning in a court of original jurisdiction from which they may reach the Supreme Court of the United States. It will be seen, then, that both the railroads and the citizens who complain of their rates of policy have to stand all of the expense of a trial before the commission, the cost of witnesses and the fees of attorneys, to present and prove a case before a tribunal whose decisions are not a finality and which cannot put the parties a single step nearer to a finality than they were before they joined issues. It is to the interest of the railroads and of the people to change all this. The spirit of the law is against compelling any one to do a vain thing and that spirit is violated when corporations and citizens are compelled to stand the expense of a trial that cannot end in anything useful. It should be seen that the Interstate Commerce Commission has accomplished all that it can as an experiment. It has accustomed the corporations and the country to the processes of an examination by one authority, representative of the National Government and has trained everybody in the preparation of a case and the presentation of evidence. All of this is a foundation upon which to build a tribunal suggested by the deficiencies and the usefulness of this. When the recommendations of the President are examined it will be seen that they run to the creation of such a tribunal. It should be a court of first instance, with its procedure defined in the act creating it. It should also be a mixed tribunal in its membership. A majority of its members should be skilled lawyers and their associates should be skilled in transportation and the general mechanics and mathematics of the railroad business. An appeal A petition from E. Kossert evaluating that a ditch be cemented from East street to Olive street along Santa Ana street was referred to the ditch committee. A communication from C. E. Stone offered to plant and care for ornamental trees around the cottage at the reservoir provided the company will purchase the same. Referred to the ditch committee to investigate as to the most suitable variety to be planted and report at next meeting. A communication from M. P. Thye & Co. relating to the proposed pumping plant was placed on file. The committee to which had been assigned the work of preparing a circular to present to stockholders reported. The report was adopted and the secretary instructed to have a sufficient number printed and send a copy to each stockholder together with a notice of the stockholders' meeting and a blank proxy. The bond of C. E. Stone for the sum of $500 with Peter Hansen and Wm. Crowther as sureties was accepted and filed. The bond of J. H. Brunworth with Jacob Everhardy and J. P. Zeyn as sureties was accepted and filed. The indemnity bond of P. H. Krick in the sum of $2000 with Wm. Crowther and A. S. Bradford as sureties was accepted and ordered to be placed with R. Melrose for safe keeping. The action of the secretary in selling four barrels cement to T. Strain was approved. The secretary was instructed to notify the Santa Fe Railway company that we are about to put in a cement ditch and that we would like them to put in a culvert across their road and to connect with our ditch. A contract with the First National Bank of Fullerton with respect to the interest on bonds was ordered on file. P. H. KRICK, Sec. Realty Changes in Prospect Two notable changes in Center-street real estate were reported yesterday as being in prospect, whereby two business blocks will be added to that thoroughfare. Startling Mortality Statistics show startling mortality from appendicitis and peritonitis. To prevent and cure these awful diseases there is just one reliable remedy, Dr. King's New Life Pills. M. Flannery of 14 Custom House Place, Chicago, says: "They have no equal for constipation and billousness." 25c at Hutchson's, druggist. Foolish Yarn John Bauer, the good-looking president of the Union brewer, clares there is no foundation published report to the effect that was married in San Diego to Mrs Jones—or to any other lady city or anywhere else. Mr. who has been pestered to death congratulations from many Southern California, desires us on the soft impeachment with an emphasis as this shop possesses: "I'm not married, I haven't met San Diego, and I have not met Miss Ida Jones' acquaintance never heard of the lady, and he isn't going to be Mrs. Bauer." A delegation of John's friend arrived in an automobile. "Congratulations, John!" she said. "We hear you are married." A private wire from the brewery night said it wasn't safe to bring about matrimony to Bakers wonders how those foolish stoch out.

Directors Ahlborn, Wallop, Adams, Wallop, Miller, Michod, and Henry Adams. Secretary Michod read the minutes of previous meeting which were saved.

George Howard appeared and asked Chamber's co-operation in securing Carnegie's secretary to ascertain what the library would do for us. Some losses, it was said, are desirous of their connection with these projects because they have to provide an sum to that furnished by Carnegie which to them is a burden. In instances donations are made out, which it is thought would be to our advantage. The subject receive further attention later. George Howard also brought up the idea of providing a hitching rack to farmers may tie their horses in town. The building of the was favorably considered and the alter was referred to Director Michod the improvement committee. Event Darling of this city and Mr. Mitch of the Southern Pacific office of Angeles appeared before the chambers. BASEBALL Tom Young's star aggregation of horsehide jugglers were conquered at Athletic Park on Sunday afternoon by the Hoegee Flags of Los Angeles, the scoreboard heralding to local rooters the unpleasant tidings to the tune of 5 to 4. Barring some very faulty base running by the boys from the foothill town the game really was one of the best put up recently. A couple of big ciphers adorned the blackboard as a result of the initial inning, and the bell tapped twice for each in the next. The third inning was a repetition of the first, and in the fourth the Flags drew a pair. The Olindas here emerged from their inertia and sent a man to first and another to the keystone. The next man up drove a stiff grounder within easy reach of the third baseman who scooped up the leather, touched his base, thereby stopping his man, and shot the sphere over to first ahead of the runner, and the firstbase artist winged the ball to second in time to put that runner out—making as pretty a triple play for the visitors as any fan would care to see. The fifth, sixth and seventh innings went into oblivion, although the oil well rooting crowd thought surely the seventh—it having gone forth that that inning is the Olinda's lucky one—would speed them on to victory. But it was not thus to be. It was during these last two innings that a series of the most listless base running ever seen was witnessed, and for what reason it would take the proverbial Philadelphia lawyer to fathom. It may be said perhaps that this is what lost the game to the local players. The Hoegees in the eighth piloted a man across the platter, while the Olindas got a goose egg. The Hoegee bunch went in one-two-three rotation in the ninth, still leaving a ray of hope for their opponents. Some one may have carried a rabbit's foot, for the home boys brought in two runs, causing a volley of applause to go forth, but here the mascot vanished, the side was placed in retirement, and the game was over. Far and away the most pleasant feature of the game was "Kid" Johnson's pitching for the Olinda team, this being his debut in fast company. He remained cool headed throughout the EPITOME OF LOCAL EVENTS A. Johns was in town Tuesday and paid a pleasant visit to this office. Mrs. Green of Puente visited with Mrs. N. Hart the fore part of the week. Rev. B. A. Johnson is in San Diego and other points south this week attending conference. Mr. and Mrs. Young of Colton visited in town several days last week, the guests of their uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Deakins. Rumors from an authenticated source are rife that something will be doing soon in electric railway building in this immediate vicinity. S. G. Brooks and wife of Minnesota, old-time neighbors of B. V. Beebe, have been spending the week at the hospitable home of that gentleman. Conductor Leake of the Alamitos train informs us the country west of town is looking unusually fine and that reports are current that the largest area ever planted to beets will be devoted to their culture the coming season. The area will exceed 10,000 acres. County School Superintendent Nichols was in town on Tuesday on an official visit to schools, which he pronounced in first-class condition. Speaking of the new primary school building he said it was the best building of its kind in Orange county. Good enough. George L. Wagner and Miss Rena Winney, popular young folks of this city, were married at the Methodist parsonage by Rev. Johnson at 7 o'clock on Sunday morning.

Mr. Bauer, who has been pestered to death with congratulations from many points in southern California, desires us to deny soft impeachment with as much emphasis as this shop possesses. "I'm not married, I haven't been to San Diego, and I have not the pleasure of Miss Ida Jones' acquaintance. I never heard of the lady, and her name isn't going to be Mrs. Bauer." A delegation of John's friends here arrived in an automobile. "Congratulations, John!" they said. We hear you are married." A private wire from the brewery last night said it wasn't safe to say anything about matrimony to Bauer, whoonders how those foolish stories get at. Life Guards The Life Guards are two regiments cavalry forming part of the British household troops. They are gallant soldiers, and every loyal British heart is proud of them. Not only the King's household, but yours, ours, everybody's should have its life guards. The need for them is especially great when the greatest foes of life, diseases, find allies the very elements as colds, influenza, catarrh, the grip, and pneumonia in the stormy month of March. The best way that we know of to guard against these diseases is to strengthen the system with Hood's Sarsaparilla—the greatest of all life guards. It removes the conditions in which these diseases make their most successful attack, gives vigor and tone to all the vital organs and functions, and imparts genial warmth to the blood. Remember the weaker the system the greater the exposure to disease. Hood's Sarsaparilla makes the system strong. More new homeseekers are coming in here now than ever, not a day passing but what a new settler arrives. The Park lies in a fertile valley, and is enjoying a share of the general prosperity. Realty is on the move and everyone seems contented. Eggs were 15 cents on Monday, the price nowadays is one that fluctuates, and indications are that it will not go any lower. Three hundred dozen eggs daily are received at Whitaker Bros. which are shipped to the Los Angeles market. The Fraternal Aid met on Friday evening and elected officers. Installation will be held Friday of next week, when an oyster supper will be enjoyed. The lodge is growing, having a membership of seventy. Arthur Smith, captain of the baseball nine, has challenged Walter Hansen's team of Centraila and a game will be played Friday afternoon. G. F. Hiles, bookkeeper at the creamery, informs ye reporter that the institution is making great strides toward supplying the world with sterilized cream, large quantitites being shipped constantly to jobbers. Miss Ethel Howell, stenographer at the creamery office, has just finished a business course at Brownsberger's and has again resumed her duties after a brief cessation. J. E. Millegin has traded 20 acres for Riverside property. He remains here and has commenced the erection of a dwelling on a newly acquired piece of property. Mrs. Barman and Mrs. Seeger of Los Angeles are visited here, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Smith. Floyd Scales who is holding down a good job on the Darling ranch, laid off just long enough to seed seven acres to barley for his father. Floyd is allright. A little bird whispers that a wedding is upon the tapis. H. A. Darling is one of the most progressive men in this section. He is putting down a 40-foot curbing, 6 feet 8 inches across, in which he will install a No. 8 centrifugal pump that will raise 200 inches of water. The water will be used to irrigate his 180-acre patch of alfalfa. Mine Host Speidel of the Park House reports business good. FOR SALE Span of mules, cheap. Apply at this office. Chairman Cundiff of the Riverside horticultural commission is an enthusiast over the work of the parasite imported from South Africa by the State horticultural commissioners for black scale. Inspectors who have just completed their work on Riverside orange groves report that wherever one of the 600 colonies of the insects was planted last summer there has been a marked diminution in the black scale. Spraying has been decreased in the districts where the parasite has been colonized, and the insects have spread more than the commissioners had reason to hope. The parasite has disappeared during the winter season, but its reappearance is looked for with confidence. Marvin Burt, a young colored gentleman who conducts a shoe-polishing emporium in front of Prof. Fox's tonsorial apartments, is introducing a grease and paint remover which is said to be ahead of anything of its kind ever offered in the local market. It removes stains with neatness and despatch, and for a shampoo cannot be beaten. Those who have tried it pronounce it first-class in every respect. Mr. Burt also has a dry process for cleaning carpets without removing them, and will clean them there or sell the preparation. Some years ago he lost his leg in a railroad accident, and is endeavoring to amass sufficient of the needful to purchase a cork leg, which costs $100. The object is a worthy one, and those in need of the articles on sale should look into their merits before purchasing elsewhere. At the Farmers' Club held in Pomona December 19 last, the matter of cheapening the supplying of water for irrigating purposes was discussed. The idea suggested was to make one large pumping plant supply the power for a large portion of this valley and to have the small plants run by a motor as a matter of economy. I believe it would be better, cheaper and more permanent to sink one good seven or nine foot shaft down into the subterranean passages and thereby get nearly all the water that flows through the gravel bed. E. G. Maxwell was a business visitor to Los Angeles on Thursday. Mrs. John Hart and Mrs. Sally Scott were Los Angeles visitors in town Monday. C. A.

Miss Louise Nicholas of Fullerton will entertain the Miercoles club at her home in Fullerton next Wednesday afternoon. Edmond Cahen was in town on Sunday from Los Angeles.

Federman this week exchanged his block at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets for Los Angeles property, the consideration being approximately $15,000. Chas. Federman will continue to occupy the premises. The new owner is L. M. Davenport. A man named Roth, who had been employed as a stone mason on the new school building, had his pockets picked up $15 Saturday evening. He was around town that evening and is at a loss to know when and where he encountered the dip. Last Saturday our merchants averred was one of the best days for business in some time, the day always a good one, but on this occasion an unusually large number of farmers and their families availed themselves to do their shopping. Mr. Armstrong came down town on Tuesday from his poultry yards on east Broadway with a mammoth bouquet of lilies, roses and other flowers. The thermometer dallied about the 70 mark, while at his Ontario home they had been having zero weather. Mr. Armstrong said he wished he could ship the bouquet back to the blizzard country, just to show the folks what gardening in midwinter was like in California.

Mr. Armstrong said he wished he could ship the bouquet back to the blizzard country, just to show the folks what gardening in midwinter was like in California. Mrs. Shanley entertained the ladies' euchre club very pleasantly on Thursday afternoon at her home on Lemon street. After the game of progressive euchre, refreshments were served and the prizes awarded the winners. Mrs. Smith won the first, a silver olive set; Mrs. Henry Kuchel the second, a china salad dish, and Mrs. Konig the consolation, a celery glass. Mrs. Hiltscher will entertain the club at its next meeting. Percy Dickel, youngest son of Herrman Dickel, distinguished himself by winning a premium of $5 offered by a Los Angeles creamery for the best drawing of a milch cow. The competition was open to school children throughout Southern California, and Percy, who is 12, carried off the honors by drawing the finest cow submitted in the competition. He received a check in Monday's mail, and is ready for the next drawing contest.
