The chamber of commerce should at an early date take up the matter of securing a more equitable allotment of directors for the Anaheim Union water company. Thus the Placentia district has three directors, Fullerton has as many, and Anaheim holding a third of the stock of the corporation, has been content for several years past with a single member of the board. As a result, important matters affecting the welfare of southside irrigators have gone by the board, notably in the matter of night irrigation and the construction of a reservoir to supply their needs. Had Anaheim been represented by two aggressive men upon the board the past five years, doubtless these matters had ere this been attended to. A reservoir is imperatively demanded by our irrigators, and now that the consensus of opinion throughout the district seems to be to do justice to them, no time should be lost in getting things in shape with that end in view. Let town is dry enough to ardent prohibitionist movements of liquor have ped out of town, and the blind pig knows no means of hilarity.

A reservoir is imperatively demanded by our irrigators, and now that the consensus of opinion throughout the district seems to be to do justice to them, no time should be lost in getting things in shape with that end in view. Let us have two directors upon the board. That is our just due. Citizens who have not yet affixed their signatures to petitions calling for subscriptions for the purchase of a site for the pathological station should do so without delay. Advices from the north are to the effect that the commission to select the site are already considering the subject, and probably the governor and the two other commissioners will be in this city before the end of the month. The governor will doubtless look into matters closely, and before deciding in our favor will ask for something more than empty promises. The site we shall offer the state must be paid for, or sufficient funds be in hand to purchase it forthwith. Six hundred dollars must be raised for the site, and an additional amount must be secured for other expenses. We cannot expect people to make trips to Sacramento without cost. The chamber of commerce will probably ask one of our citizens, and probably two, to go to Sacramento during the coming week to lay our claims before the commission. This is what other communities are doing, and Anaheim will get into the whirl and get busy. It takes money to do this. Meet the soliciting committee with a smile and a good-sized subscription.

This is what other communities are doing, and Anaheim will get into the whirl and get busy. It takes money to do this. Meet the soliciting committee with a smile and a good-sized subscription. Do not give grudgingly, or as if the money you are subscribing is the last bit of dough you have in the world; give generously, and look upon the committee, not as interlopers to be shunned, but as public-spirited citizens engaged in a work of great import to this city and to Orange county. Those who have not yet subscribed will be called upon to do so this week. We have the laboratory fight won—that is, we think we have it won. However, several hundred dollars are yet necessary to land it, and this amount must be raised this week. The Quaker doctors are gone, along with their corps of serio-chronic singers, but the man with the accordion on the sidewalk, singing "The Man Behind," still remains with us. That "Patrol Wagon" was a winner. PILGRIMS who have wended their way over the burning sands hitherward from Santa Ana aver that under the new order of things the is dry enough to suit the most that prohibitionist Consigners of liquor have been reshipout of town, and the lair of the pig knows no more the voice clarity.

Subscribers with towns are almost a unit in of it, and patrons of the comin this city should insist that switching outrage be done with. It is not businessand it works a hardship to scribers in town. The communof Fullerton, La Habra, Playa, Yorba and Olinda have telephone communication, one with another; but Anaheim barred from such communicafor the reason that a few selpeople at Fullerton fear they lose trade if these charges are nated. But this idea is prerous. People will trade where get the best bargains, and telnes have little to do with it. The telephones on earth will ring business to an establishwhose methods of dealing prices are not right, not on life. Let Anaheim insist un- the water of the Cache la Poudre river in Colorado: The rights to the stream belong to the owners of ditches and are established by decrees of the court. These decrees are largely in excess of both the capacity of ditches to divert water or the river to supply it. Rights to water in the stream are personal property and are bought and sold like wheat stored in an elevator. The decree of the court represents an ownership in the running water, just as a warehouse receipt reresents the ownership of grain in the elevator. In his division of the stream the water commissioner pays no attention to how or where the water is used after it passes the headgate. Its subsequent disposal is under the control of the appropriator and his or its customers. Modjeska's Benefit Mme. Modjeska, who, during her long and wondrous brilliant career on the stage, played upon the emotions of vast audiences as a great musician draws melody from a harp, stood under the glare of lights in the Metroplitan Operahouse in New York on Tuesday afternoon, deeply shaken by the homage of the throng which she had swayed by her art. She had just received an illuminated testimonial at the benefit planned by her countryman, Ignace Paderewski, and her eyes were moist and sobs filled her voice as she uttered a few words of thanks. The presentation followed a eulogy of the actress delivered just after the curtain had gone down on the murder scene from Macbeth, in which Mme. Modjeska, in the sunset of life had close trade if these charges are animated. But this idea is previous. People will trade where get the best bargains, and tellines have little to do with it. The telephones on earth will bring business to an establishment whose methods of dealing prices are not right, not on life. Let Anaheim insist upeliminating this unjust charge, of Sunset fails to listen to us, to take the matter up with the company. Anaheim has this unjust and preposterous age long enough. What's this, what's this, we Mr. Hale saying of Mr. Sher- ? How like a serpent does this felject his venom and through press scatter it broadcast over community, attacking the intry of the board without any mon which to base his claims. We lived here a good many years and am willing to have my real acts and mistakes, my acter, my integrity and standin this community compared that of George Sherwood. Marsh language this, from one other to another. Yet true it is when water directors fall out st men come by their due. HANDLORD AVAS of the Hotel lieu at Santa Ana has closed dining-room, on account of of patronage, and it is said other hotel in the town will suit shortly. Prohibition not helped Santa Ana, not by Its merchants complain of going off of trade, and the hotel ness has languished for months Well-informed citizens at county seat express serious concerning prohibition as a as of building up a town. MONA seems to be having a age of the throng which she had swayed by her art. She had just received an illuminated testimonial at the benefit planned by her countryman, Ignace Paderewski, and her eyes were moist and sobs filled her voice as she uttered a few words of thanks. The presentation followed a eulogy of the actress delivered just after the curtain had gone down on the murder scene from Macbeth, in which Mme. Modjeska, in the sunset of life, had exhibited all the fire, genius and magnetism of the halcyon days of her carer. The audience had applauded her time and again until utterly exhauted. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she retired to the wings. Daniel Frohman, who had charge of the benefit, said that Modjeska would realize $10,000. Had Paderewski been able to appear the receipts would have been several thousand dollars larger. The audience was made up of all classes. Literary folk, playwrights, actors and business men who had admired Modjeska's art years ago, made her welcome notable for warmth and sincerity and also generously patronized the actresses who sold roses, confectionery, souvenirs and photographs. According to gossip the slate of prospective federal appointments has been agreed upon by United States Senator Flint and leaders of the regular republican organization. The list includes: District attorney, Oscar Lawler; marshal, Leo V. Youngworth; receiver of the land office, W. E. D. Robinson; register of the land office, Lloyd Parker; collector of customs, Frank C. Prescott. None of the positions will be vacant before the end of the year, with the exception of the one held by District Attorney L. H. Valentine. The last place in the list to be filled will be that of collector of customs, where a vacancy will occur in January, 1907. Whether Assemblyman Prescott will accept the position is not known. He is not favorably inclined to the idea at this time, as the duties will take him from his chosen profession of law, and the collector's salary is only $3,000 a year, the same as is paid to the others mentioned.
