GREATER ORANGE COUNTY The committee on plans for a Greater Los Angeles has mapped out a scheme of consolidation of the city and a portion of the country, with a total area of 700 square miles. The plan as outlined for merging all towns west of San Gabriel river and south of the northern portion of San Fernando valley, extending to the mountains and the sea, into Greater Los Angeles. The borough system, as adopted in Greater New York, and which has worked so successfully, will be considered for Greater Los Angeles. It is argued that with the borough system in operation the outlying cities can manage their own affairs, as at present, but a great saving in municipal and county expenses will be effected. A proposition to make a new mysterious companion area to have unearthed evidence will make the case of the ment a thousand-fold strong the suits brought by Atta Hadley in Missouri. This barely touches on the elaborate tem of rebates and "freezing processes built up by the Provinia and its controlled long years of experience in with a lax and easy-going ment with actual condition oil fields and with the always tute and alert management oil trust.

The university farm comm met at Sacramento on Sat when Prof. E. J. Wickson state university submitted a on the sixty-nine sites for the which he had inspected. Wickson has visited and im gated places in Alameda, Sa quin, Stanislaus, Merced, I Butte, Glenn, Yolo, Santa Monterey, Santa Cruz, Solar Contra Costa counties. M each site were show by Prof. son, were inspected, and he touched upon the availability desirability of every one of in Greater New York, and which has worked so successfully, will be considered for Greater Los Angeles. It is argued that with the borough system in operation the outlying cities can manage their own affairs, as at present, but a great saving in municipal and county expenses will be effected. A proposition to make a new county to be known as Pomona county with Pomona as the county seat, to embrace portions of the county lying east of San Gabriel river, is being considered; also that the extreme northern portion of the county be annexed to either Ventura or Kern. The area to be incorporated into one municipality averages thirty-five miles long by twenty miles wide and embraces 700 square miles. Most important of the towns and villages included are: Los Angeles, Pasadena, South Pasadena, Altadena, Tejunga, Burbank, Hollywood, Colegrove, Soldiers' Home, Santa Monica, Ocean Park, Venice, Playa del Rey, Redondo, Inglewood, Gardena, Sawtelle, San Pedro, Alamitos, Naples, Downey, Compton, Florence, Rivera, Alhambra, San Gabriel and Monrovia. Advices from Whittier, which will be excluded from the consolidated city and county, are that it is tooth and nail opposed to being included in Pomona county, preferring to come into Orange county. Senator McComas of Pomona recently stated the lines of the proposed new county would not come south of the range of mountains which divide Whittier from Pomona. It is time for Orange county to sit up and take note of what is going on about her. What are the boards of trade and chambers of Senator McComas of Pomona recently stated the lines of the proposed new county would not come south of the range of mountains which divide Whittier from Pomona. It is time for Orange county to sit up and take note of what is going on about her. What are the boards of trade and chambers of commerce of the county doing about it? What is the matter with a Greater Orange County? That rebates amounting in the aggregate to millions of dollars have been granted to the Standard Oil company by the Pennsylvania lines, and that small feeder lines attempting to convey oil from independent properties over the Pennsylvania system have been frozen out by unjust discrimination in rates and unfair distribution of cars are leading facts which have been gathered from the records and accounts unwillingly opened to President Roosevelt's agents who are at work in Personae Gratea. The information comes from a person who is in intimate touch with the situation. And the work has only begun. Despite the absolute lack of co-operation on the part of the management of the Pennsylvania and the Pittsburg and Lake Erie, Special Agent H. D. Brown and his If the report that John D. Roe feller has gone to Venezuela true, the government ought to France to hurry up that block and make it permanent. Mrs. Yerkes explains that she first denied the report of her marriage to avoid publicity. She now wondering if she could done anything to bring her name of it. Senator Money has moved strike out all but the enact clause of the pure food bill. Whether how he came to overlook enacting clause. Senator Burton ought to follow the example of the packers; somebody the worst at once then claim immunity. JUDGE SLOSS' SALARY There are many queer things in the law, but none of them, perhaps, more of a curiosity than the recent discovery that the recently appointed Supreme Justice Sloss will receive $2000 more salary per annum than any of his associates. The chief justice, all the older justices of the supreme court and all the justices of the courts of appeal receive $6000 a year. Judge Sloss, who was recently appointed by Gov. Pardee to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Van Dyke will receive $8000 salary per year. At the last session of the legislature a law was passed increasing the salary of justices of the supreme court from $6000 to $8000 a year. It was also provided that justices of the court of appeals should receive the same salaries as justices of the supreme court. It is provided in the constitution, however that the salary of no public official may be increased while he himself remains in office. The position may be made worth more, but not to the incumbent, unless he is re-elected. The six senior members of the supreme court were all in office at the time of the passage of the bill, so they must hold down $8000 jobs for $6000. Judge Sloss, however, comes into the dignified tribunal perfectly free to secure the full salary allowed by law, as he was an unearthed evidence that in the case of the govern-ousand-fold stronger than brought by Atty. Gen. Missouri. This evidence matches on the elaborate sys-obates and "freezing out" built up by the Pennsylvanian's controlled lines, after a period of experience in dealing with easy-going govern-actual conditions in the land with the always alert management of the state. It may take weeks of time to end of the "sys-reached; but when it is, be nothing left for Presi-velt to desire in the way he to show the relations of roads to the Rockefeller-octopus. University farm commission decremento on Saturday, E. E. J. Wickson of the university submitted a report by nine sites for the farm, had inspected.

The six senior members of the supreme court were all in office at the time of the passage of the bill, so they must hold down $8000 jobs for $6000. Judge Sloss, however, comes into the dignified tribunal perfectly free to secure the full salary allowed by law, as he was appointed subsequent to the passage of the bill in question. The amount of revenue collected from the insurance companies by the state during the year ending December 31st, 1905, shows a remarkable increase, being nearly double that of the preceding year. According to the figures of State Insurance Commissioner Myron Wolf, the total collections of this department amounted to $205,098,-62, which shows it to be one of the best revenue-producing sources of the state. He predicts that the amount of revenue to be collected for the present year will exceed this amount by more than $50,000. The various lines of the insurance business show a profitable year, excepting life and marine insurance. The former owes its decrease in business to the scandals in New York. The latter has experienced an unprofitable year from the fact of the numerous disasters to vessels. A press dispatch from London says that the English government is about to institute a searching investigation into life insurance matters. The same cable announces that James Hazen Hyde is about to start for Paris.

The announcement of Justice Duel that he will not resign his judicial salary arouses the suspicion that he may not have fleeced as many millionaires as was indicated by the evidence. In the February number of the American Illustrated Review of Reviews of New York appears an article on the work of the Coliformia Promotion committee, under the title, "Building Up a State by Organized Effort." The article, which is written by Hamilton Wright, is profusely illustrated, and is most comprehensive in its scope. It shows in detail what the committee has done to build up California, and gives an insight into the inner workings of the organization which has been so prominent in the advancement of the state during the past four years. The article tells of the organization of the committee and explains much of the good that has been done since its beginning.
