Transient advertising $1 per inch per month The GAZETTE is issued every Thursday morning. Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. THE WATER SUPPLY Night irrigation and pumping plants sealed the doom of the water bonds on Saturday. A large assemblage of stockholders was present, and while not a sufficient number of shares were represented to constitute a quorum, a slight effort upon the part of those present to procure a quorum would undoubtedly have resulted in bringing about that condition of affairs. Why was this not done? Because of the apparent antipathy of irrigators on this side of the district, first, to pumping plants, and, second, to night irrigation. Northside irrigators have for years been provided with reservoir facilities, and thus do their irrigating in day time, avoiding the worries and inconveniences of night irrigation. Southside irrigators have not had this convenience in handling water, but have to respond to the zanjero's call at any hour of the day or night. This works a hardship side irrigators have for years been provided with reservoir facilities, and thus do their irrigating in day time, avoiding the worries and inconveniences of night irrigation. Southside irrigators have not had this convenience in handling water, but have to respond to the zanjero's call at any hour of the day or night. This works a hardship upon them, and is entirely unjust and unfair. They resolved against a large bond issue until this matter was righted. The meeting resolved to provide a reservoir for the southside irrigators, and thus equalize the systems of irrigation on both sides of the district. While irrigators on the southside opposed pumping plants, they will probably forego much of their objection to them in the event of the construction of a reservoir suitable for their purposes. Advocates of pumping plants urge their construction on the ground that more water is absolutely demanded, and yet thousands of inches have been permitted to run to waste in the river this year, when if a reservoir had been built this vast flow would have been impounded and used by the irrigator. How can water be more easily "developed" than by the construction of the Yorba reservoir? Is not this plan of conserving flood waters cheaper than lifting water by means of pumps? How is Redlands developing water? By reservoirs. How is San Diego providing water for irrigation? By reservoirs. How is the United States government going about to provide water for reclaiming the arid west? By constructing reservoirs. The Anaheim Union Water company has data on file proving the availability of the Yorba reservoir site for water—impounding purposes. Judging by the temper of local irrigators there will be no How is the United States government going about to provide water for reclaiming the arid west? By constructing reservoirs. The Anaheim Union Water company has data on file proving the availability of the Yorba reservoir site for water—impounding purposes. Judging by the temper of local irrigators there will be no issue of bonds for other improvements, until this reservoir is built, or another one provided which will answer all practical purposes. Again, with the construction of this reservoir, 1100 acres of new land could be irrigated, and data on file at the water office shows this area could be very largely increased. But with even 1000 acres added to the company's domain, having a share of stock per acre, an amount exceeding $50,000 could be realized by the sale of new stock; enough to pay for the reservoir. Why does not the company go ahead on these lines? Let another election be called, and let provision be made for doing away with night water in this end of the district, and bonds for improvements will carry with a whoop. ANAHEIM has 2600 shares of stock in the water company, out of a total of 8000. This should entitle us to at least two members of the board of directors. At present the stockholders have one. Let us Orange Market Brisk New York, April 21.—(Exclusive Dispatch.) Probably no one ever had a better market for California or than has ruled during the past week. There have been some slight fluctuations, but they haven't made any particular difference with the exact situation. Sales have been almost uniformly active and relatively high prevailed. And at the close of the week the conditions governing the market are far more satisfactory than has been the case for many weeks. Looking forward, there is every indication of a continuance of the presatisfactory state of the market. Actions at the close showed a sharp ward tendency, particularly upon better qualities, while buyers w Grand Picnic Columbia Gardens Sunday April 30 Under the Auspices of Aheim Aerie 947, F. O. E.

The orange market in this city is dependent upon the weather to a great extent. The past week has been sunny and some of the time as warm as summer. At noon the vast office buildings poured out their throngs who long for a breath of air after the long confinement of the winter, and they have swarmed up and down Broadway between 12 o'clock and 2. That always means liberal sales of fruit. Generally the pushcart men are lined up in cross streets waiting for just this throng of people, and the result is that retail sales are always liberal at good prices. A sudden demand sprung up for small navels within the past ten days, and particularly during the past week. With many consumers it is more a case of quantity than actual quality, and if they get three oranges for 5 cents they are quite as well satisfied, better, probably, than they are to buy one exceptionally good one for the same money.
