CONTROLLING RIVER FROM OVERFLOW Anaheim Wiff Co-operate With Santa Ana Citizens in an Effort to Confine Flood Waters A meeting of citizens interested in confining the waters of the Santa Ana river in its channel, preventing overflow and resultant damage to property, was held at Santa Ana on Saturday, being attended by representative people from several sections of the county. County Surveyor Finley submitted a report giving a detailed estimate of the cost of the work. His plans provide for a channel 400 feet in width. Of this 150 feet is for the main channel. This channel is flanked on either side by flood channels each 100 feet wide and planted with willows or other bushes to prevent washing. A dirt levee 25 feet wide bounds the channel on either side, enclosing the flood channels. It is the expectation that the main channel will carry the waters in ordinary storms and that upon extraordinary occasions only will the flood channels be necessary. The forty miles down the coast to Ocean side, it is learned from an authoritative source, is one of the plans for greater development of Southern California which H. E. Huntington will make effective soon after his return from New York. As an initial step in this direction is reported that on Mr. Huntington recent trip to Oceanside and San Diego he purchased the Rancho Paubra near Oceanside, and has secured options other properties in the vicinity of aggregate of 75,000 acres. It is believed that Mr. Huntington has been looking to this portion of state for some time as a region who would respond to the touch of progress and the judicious investment of capital. It is a portion of the state which offers possibilities for development once it is brought in close touch with the busy outside world. A part of an extensive scheme of development will be the improvement of Oceanside which it is believed possible to make one of the most charming southern beach resorts. This beautiful spot is but forty miles from present terminous of the Pacific electric railway at Newport beach, so that the task of extending the line to point will not be difficult nor once magnitude for a company like the specific electric. It is possible that the road may be extended below Oceanside for so little time to come. The route of electric road would cut through Of this 150 feet is for the main channel. This channel is flanked on either side by flood channels each 100 feet wide and planted with willows or other bushes to prevent washing. A dirt levee 25 feet wide bounds the channel on either side, enclosing the flood channels. It is the expectation that the main channel will carry the waters in ordinary storms and that upon extraordinary occasions only will the flood channels be necessary. The levees are about four feet above the surface of the flood channels, and the main channel is 3 feet lower than the flood channels, making a total difference in elevation of about seven. Finley's estimate of the cost per mile is $7800, or a total cost for the ten miles of $78,000. For each mile the grading will cost $2500; the border, $2400; right of way, $2400; trees, etc., for flood channels, $500. The boundaries of the district run from the Southern Pacific crossing at West Orange to the ocean, and include Newport, Bolsa, Newhope and Talbert districts, practically all the lowland country subject to annoyance from the river overflow. The eastern boundary at the northern end of the district is Bristol street. The meeting discussed the project in all its bearings, and a decision was reached to incorporate the district substantially as planned by Finley. W. H. Spake and Ed-Michod, representing the Chamber of Commerce of this city, were present at the meeting and participated in the discussion. In accordance with a resolution adopted by the Chamber of Commerce at its last meeting, the gentlemen announced that Anaheim would enter heartily into the project of controlling the river waters, feeling that unless such steps were taken to properly confine such waters a constantly increasing menace to property interests would prevail. In all probability a district will be formed taking in territory from a short distance above the Olive bridge southly to a junction with the district forming at Santa Ana. A petition is in circulation asking Supervisor Linebarger to co-operate with other members of the board in making an appropriation covering a part of the expense of the work. The Chamber of Commerce will more fully discuss the project at its southern beach resorts. This beautiful spot is but forty miles from the present terminous of the Pacific electric railway at Newport beach, so that the task of extending the line to the point will not be difficult nor once magnitude for a company like the specific electric. It is possible that the road may be extended below Oceanside for some little time to come. The route of electric road would cut through beautiful and richly productive and cultural country which would furnish a considerable freight and express traffic not to speak of the passenger business. From Oceanside to San Diego, he ever, is but another step, and the business men and residents of that city are anxious to see this electric system reach from Los Angeles to Mexican border, as they are confident that it would be of immense advantage to them commercially and economically.

A petition is in circulation asking Supervisor Linebarger to co-operate with other members of the board in making an appropriation covering a part of the expense of the work. The Chamber of Commerce will more fully discuss the project at its next meeting. The supervisors on Tuesday by a vote of 4 to one decided to sanction the formation of a levee and protection district to care for the overflow waters of the Santa Ana river, as outlined in a petition of ranchmen. Supervisor McMullan registered the only vote against the plan, explaining that he did not consider the Act of 1895, under which it is proposed to incorporate, one favorable to local conditions. Following the passage of the motion to grant the petition for incorporation, a resolution was passed fixing the boundaries of the district in accordance with the survey made by Col. S. H. Finley. This makes the district include the Bolsa, Talbert, Newhope and Newport territory and fixes the northern boundary at the West Orange crossing of the Southern Pacific. Having gained the desired concession from the Supervisors, the ranchmen will proceed at once to take the necessary legal steps for putting the district upon a working basis, with a view to voting bonds and starting the work of making the new river channel in time to be prepared for next winter's storms.

S. S. RANGER, CAVITE, P. I. June 12, 1905. DEAR MOTHER:—I received two letters from you yesterday and was very glad, for they were the first since leaving San Francisco. We arrived here the 6th of June and I delayed writing because I had no stamps. We were in Honolulu 24 hours, so I did not see much of the town. We were in Guam two days, and luckily, I was in the running boat that took the officers to shore, and while waiting, climbed my first cocoa nut tree. Not much to see at Guam. We were 17 days from Honolulu to Guam, and 7 days from Guam to Cavite. We are lying in Cavite now, 8 miles from Manila. I got shore liberty and went to Manila—a queer looking city; very narrow streets, and the people are carried about in little carts drawn by ponies. Everything is very high here except fruit. We have bananas twice a day. Springs will bring 70 or 80 head cattle fed in same way. Under Supt. Lawrence's supervision the factory has been put in first condition for the work of the camper and everything is in readiness for extraction of sweetness from the material and turn it into sugar for market. The new tare room has already put into use in working up the samples. The Lacy manufacturing company have a crew of men on factory grinding a 400,000 gallon iron tank for the storage of molasses. Although somewhat early in the season there is considerable inquiring beet land for the season of 1906. Only all the Montana land companies beet acreage has already been used and nearly all of the sugar company land east of the factory has also spoken for. Supt. Lawrence states that arrears will be made this season so farmers can get fresh pulp from factory day or night during the paign. This will enable them to load of beets to the factory and a load of pulp back, even though may be late about getting the loaded, or they can come for after milking time. The Louisiana Planter has said regarding the feeding value gar beet pulp: "Beet pulp is steadily g PARK NOTES Maile, of the Home I occupy the pulpit in local church on Sunday Corbin in the evening fourth anniversary service be special music, and family will spend August at Long Beach.

We were 17 days from Honolulu to Guam, and 7 days from Guam to Cavite. We are lying in Cavite now, 8 miles from Manila. I got shore liberty and went to Manila—a queer looking city; very narrow streets, and the people are carried about in little carts drawn by ponies. Everything is very high here except fruit. We have bananas twice a day. I wish Floyd was here to enjoy them. The three Russian cruisers at Manila are all shot to pieces. We heard of the fight at Guam but didn't believe much of it. The Ohio is at Manila, the Oregon, Wisconsin and Cincinnati are here with us. There are many small gunboats and boats of all kinds here too. I like this country very well, but it is very hot. The money they pay us is worth only one-half as much as ours is, and is somewhat confusing. I hope to be on the Oregon by the time you get this letter. We worked all day on this, getting ready to take her out of commission. Our trip was very pleasant all the way except the first few days out from San Francisco. I will be able to tell you a long story when I get home. I saw some of the Forts that Dewey fired on. Be sure to send me the papers and two letters a week. They will all come together but I will be glad to get them. I will write often when I get on my ship and settled down once more. There are two drafts; one for the Oregon and one for the Elcano. I do hope I'll get on the Oregon. Tell Adolph H. that I saw Jack Conors at Honolulu. He is going to Portland, then south to Port Los Angeles. Write me where Ernest Kellenberger is; I want to see him. It is getting near supper time so I will close. We are going to have fried spuds for a change, and won't they be good! I am very well, only a little whiter from the heat. Glad you are all well, and 143 does not sound as if you were sick now. Address to the Ranger till you hear from me again. Regards to all friends. Your own sailor boy, GEORGE HATFIELD.

This will enable them to a load of beets to the factory and a load of pulp back, even though may be late about getting them loaded, or they can come for after milking time. The Louisiana Planter has to say regarding the feeding value of gar beet pulp: "Beet pulp is steadily ground as cattle food: Prof. Carr the Colorado experiment station been making careful experiments beet pulp for cattle feeding, and proven that a gain in weight in cattle can be secured more chick with a ration of beet pulp and hay than otherwise.

This being satisfactory, it has been definitely determined and notices are being sent out to beet raisers to commence plowing out beets to start the factory on July 31. Delivery will begin Aug. 3d, and slicing two days later. Since last season there have been no changes in the personnel of those in charge of the operating departments, H. C. Lawrence being superintendent; F. K. Edwards, chief engineer: D. W. Goodwin, assistant engineer; W. R. McAllep, chemist; J. Evans Miller and E. L. Norton, day and night foremen; J. O. Reed and A. Philbrick, sugar boilers, and Karl Bennis, extra man. In the office, A. W. Jones is in charge, with W. P. Scoble as assistant. About the usual force of help will be installed in the different departments, preference being given to experienced men, who have worked here in former years. S. D. Sutton of Norwalk will bring to the factory yards 50 head of his milch cows which will be fed upon pulp as soon as the factory begins slicing beets. Also E. P.

SIOUX INDIANS VS. OLINDA On Sunday afternoon and evening next, at Athletic park, the celebrated Sioux Indian baseball team will play the Olindas. Two games will be played, the afternoon game beginning at 3:00, the evening game at 8 o'clock. The evening game will be played under electric lights. Manager Young of the Oil Wells club has closed a contract with the management of the famous Sioux Indian ball team to appear here next Sunday at which time they will line themselves up in battle formation and go after the scalps of the local pale-face club. If the Indians are as fast as press reports say they are it will be a massacre. All the oil boys are practicing with war clubs, and several have purchased a red blanket apiece and if the other players fall in line it might be possible for us to drive the savages back to the reservation. The Indians have secured Man-not-afraid-of-his-Jaw to do the coaching, Mr. Kick-a-hole-in-the-Sky will be in the pitcher's box and Fond-of-Squaw will be at the receiving end, so with this array of talent it will be up to the Oils to play ball. The Indians travel in their own private sleeper, all are athletes and a fine specimen of the Aboriginal race. It is going to be a great game, so every body turn out and root for the home team.
