The Riverside Press makes a spirited rejoinder to a bulletin recently issued by the State board of trade, for distribution at the Portland exposition, setting forth with circumstantial detail false statements regarding the area adapted to orange growing in central and northern California. The report gives the names of a score of places in the northern part of the state where citrus culture is engaged in, adding that fruit raised there has less "rust and scale" than those grown in Southern California, ripening earlier and yielding greater profits than those grown in the southland. There can be no objection to this booming of the "northern citrus belt," but the point the Press makes is that not a line of reference is made to the seven southern counties, where 95 per cent of all the oranges produced in the state are grown. This Ana. They became so bored that they were placed under The white youths, after being tainted three or four hours were liberated and told to This they did. The you referred to answered to the "Hankey," and was said knowing him to be the prominent Santa Ana dealer. He is said to have years of age, and on his Santa Ana declared he would go home, having disgracedents so he could not bear them. However we are to accept Mr. Hankey's stance at its face value, and are think his son was with him beach instead of disgracing and bringing reproach upon family by being in a drunken carousers who had placed in jail. If this young man had been in jail and made to answer offending, no mistake would arisen regarding his name, would have been adequately ished. There is no legal for placing a man in jail erating him before a court. Liberating these without punishment merely vates the case. They should them be haled into court, pleading for their offense, and their given the newspapers. That of procedure would very easily bring an end to the visits of riotous Santa Ana youngster. ening earlier and yielding greater profits than those grown in the southland. There can be no objection to this booming of the "northern citrus belt," but the point the Press makes is that not a line of reference is made to the seven southern counties, where 95 per cent of all the oranges produced in the state are grown. This report is but another of the many covert attacks upon these southern counties by the state board of trade, which is no more a state organization, in the true sense of the word, having the interests of the whole state at heart, than so many up-country knockers venting their splenetic attacks upon a long-suffering people. The pamphlet now being circulated at Portland and being distributed broadcast throughout the east, contains not a word about the counties of Riverside, San Bernardino, Orange and the other southern counties where, as we say, 95 per cent of the oranges produced by the state are grown; but gives fulsome reference to Butte, Sonoma and other counties in the northern end of the state, from which the ordinary reader might infer that orange growing was engaged in upon anything except the limited extent now prevailing in those sections. True, occasional orchards may be found in favored sections, but the entire shipment of oranges from Butte county was only 400 carloads, while the southern counties shipped 25,000 cars. This illustrates the relative extent of the industry north and south. We make no complaint against the state board tooting the horn of Butte, but why this studied ignoring of the real orange-growing section? What ails the state board of trade? If it desires honestly to disseminate information regarding the orange industry what grows it? Why is the Edison company anxious to secure a leasehold on the municipal lighting work this city—why? Certainly not because they are going to money upon the works—certain not. The reason, then, is that the monopoly sees a chance for profit here; the few most inviting, and the most desires to defeat municipal ship wherever and whenever the chance. But the real for the longing glances of the monopoly hitherward is that make money for its stock by operating the plant. Now here's a question for those whose ears the monopoly has singing its siren song: If open the works furnishes such pursuit for the monopoly, who not the municipality do as well it? Why cannot we return plus into the treasury each as we have been doing right besides lighting our streets, cost of $2400 per annum, cost to the taxpayer. Every of that? Do you know of a that is better lighted than our trates the relative extent of the industry north and south. We make no complaint against the state board tooting the horn of Butte, but why this studied ignoring of the real orange-growing section? What ails the state board of trade? If it desires honestly to disseminate information regarding the orange industry, what excuse can it offer for the mess of falsification in this latest effort upon its part to belittle the south, to ignore its interests and to deceive the intending home-seeker? A card from J. A. Hankey of Santa Ana published elsewhere this morning furnishes a text for a brief observation upon the methods of our police officers in making arrests and liberating prisoners before bringing them into court. Last week we stated that Mr. Hankey's young son had been arrested, along with several other Santa Ana youths, for drunkenness and disturbing the peace. Mr. Hankey writes that at the time of the arrest his son was with him at Newport. The item came into print this way: A Mexican named Meranda and three or four white youths from Santa Ana drove into town Sunday a week ago under the influence of liquor, which they had obtained at a blind pig near Santa they became so boisterous they were placed under arrest. the youths, after being deprived or four hours in jail, arrested and told to go home. they did. The young man so answered to the name," and was said by those him to be the son of a Santa Ana hardware He is said to have been 16 age, and on his way to Santa declared he would not having disgraced his parade could not bear to face however we are disposed Mr. Hankey's statement value, and are glad to son was with him at the instead of disgracing himself aging reproach upon his being in a party of carousers who had to be jail. young man had been kept made to answer for his no mistake would have guarding his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he have been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been adequately punished his name and he has been inadequated to the visits of these Santa Ana youngsters who Always Relieved There is no Mystery GREAT ALTERATIONS It is a plain unveiled fact, that every article in the Shoes.

Sort of a Scotty on a small scale? At a farmers' institute held in Anaheim some years ago, F. S. Van Dyke, the well-known Los Angeles engineer, speaking of water and water rights, said the irrigators of this vicinity had undoubtedly the most secure water rights that could be found in the state. "You have been using the waters of the river for irrigation purposes for forty years, and established your right to this water decades before the other communities now using water from the river had actual existence. But there is one danger from this river water," he continued, "which I wish you to guard against: It is the ever present danger of overflow. The river's bed is in places higher than the surrounding country. We are going through a cycle of dry years, but wet winters will come again. In one of these the river is liable to leave its present channel and cut its way through the most thickly settled community in the valley. Millions of dollars of loss may be sustained. This should be guarded against." It has taken a half dozen years for Mr. Van Dyke's warning to penetrate our skulls. Now the Chambers of Commerce of Orange county are moving in a concerted effort to confine the waters of the river. The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce is taking an active interest in the matter, and should the monopoly, why cannicipality do as well by cannot we return a surhe treasury each year, been doing right along, ting our streets, at a 00 per annum, free of taxpayer. Ever think Do you know of a town or lighted than our city? Do you know how is you to have the streets it costs you nary a pencipal ownership does is the Edison monopod with the itch to get lighting works? It has taken a half dozen years for Mr. Van Dyke's warning to penetrate our skulls. Now the Chambers of Commerce of Orange county are moving in a concerted effort to confine the waters of the river. The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce is taking an active interest in the matter, and should have the endorsement of all in its efforts to bring about the formation of a district extending from a point above the Olive bridge to Santa Ana for keeping the river's waters from leaving this channel and ruining adjacent property.
