CALIFORNIA STATE BRAZIL VOLUME XXXVI STEPS TAKEN TO SECURE FARMERS' INSTITUTE Other Matters of Local Interest Given Attention by the Chamber of Commerce At the chamber of commerce meeting on Monday evening steps were taken toward holding a farmers' institute in this city on May 4th and 5th next. A committee consisting of Messrs. Armstrong, Clabaugh and Callor was appointed to confer with Mr. Neff and endeavor to arrange for the meetings. The incidental expenses have to be met by the local people and for that reason it is desired that the chamber of commerce take the lead in the matter. The committee was given power to act and report at the next meeting. J. F. Ahlborn, in behalf of the ladies' clubs of this city, addressed the board in reference to erecting a building to be used jointly by the chamber of commerce and the several ladies' clubs. The proposition was discussed by the directors and appears feasible. The and for that reason it is desired that the chamber of commerce take the lead in the matter. The committee was given power to act and report at the next meeting. J. F. Ahlborn, in behalf of the ladies' clubs of this city, addressed the board in reference to erecting a building to be used jointly by the chamber of commerce and the several ladies' clubs. The proposition was discussed by the directors and appears feasible. The local organization now pays out upward of $27 monthly, which would go far toward furnishing a home of its own. The ladies' clubs beside would lend material assistance. The project was referred to a committee composed of Messrs. Ahlborn, Yungbluth and McCollum. It was ordered, upon a request made by Mr. Ahlborn, that the donation of $10 received from Tim Carroll for the printing of a half-tone cut of a nursery scene in the recently issued pamphlet, Anaheim Cash Grocery Flour!

The proposition of a Los Angeles mayor to sell a space in a special edi-tion be issued soon was sidestepped. Apprehension as to the delivery of pamphlets to the Los Angeles bar of commerce caused the board instruct Secretary Boege to send out notice for enlightenment. The park, library and laundry companies were granted further time. The California promotion committee is for facts concerning this city and surroundings for advertising purposes.

SAYS DARLING, PROHIBITION BREEDS DISHONESTY Is Not in Favor of a Closed Sunday, and Gives His Reasons for So Believing EDITOR GAZETTE.—Our voting population has been previously advised, that there is to be an election in the city of Anaheim April 9, 1906. Officers are to be elected by the people and for the people, as follows: Four trustees, treasurer, city clerk and marshal, and it behooves every voter and taxpayer to think well before casting his vote for any of these people. Candidates are like mushrooms, but the best interests of the city should be uppermost in the mind of every voter for municipal offices. Candidates should be investigated, on the basis of our progressive movement, for the general good of the business men and the commercial interests of our city.

Candidates should be investigated, on the basis of our progressive movement, for the general good of the business men and the commercial interests of our city. Miles of sidewalk have been constructed during the past two years and more than one hundred first-class cottages. Seven brick business houses built and occupied and more in prospective. This should be a very satisfactory review for the outgoing trustees, also for every other citizen of this city. Anaheim is centrally located in this valley, which is the garden spot of Orange county, well supplied with water for irrigation. lands suitable for agriculture, horticulture, walnuts or oranges, offered at very reasonable prices just now, but rapidly advancing. Our population at the present time is about 3000 and the next census is likely to show in the neighborhood of 5000, at the present rate of increase. There is something about us that attracts the industrial classes, those who after a long week's work, hard labor for six days, require a relaxation of muscles—a day of recreation, as it were—a day of pastime, harmless to themselves and every one else and in no manner detrimental to anyone. The attractions offered at Anaheim on Sunday are many and varied, recreational and harmless. Athletic sports are healthful and entertaining, and from the number of spectators present at our baseball games I am led to believe there is an interest taken by all kinds of people, foreign and local. I do not favor anything not in accordance with law and good order, but I cannot understand why everybody should not be allowed to choose their own form of recreation on Sunday, whether it be baseball, pool, billiards, ten pins, military target practice, or anything else not in conflict with the State law or city ordinances. One of the issues before the voters at the ensuing election will be "Close all places where liquor is sold on Sunday," or Sunday "prohibition" as it were. Broadway, between streets.

I cannot understand why everybody should not be allowed to choose their own form of recreation on Sunday, whether it be baseball, pool, billiards, ten pins, military target practice, or anything else not in conflict with the State law or city ordinances. One of the issues before the voters at the ensuing election will be "Close all places where liquor is sold on Sunday," or Sunday "prohibition" as it were. As a matter of fact, prohibition does not prohibit the use of liquors, and is a misnomer. If a demand exists there will be a supply from some source and appetites will be gratified, regardless of revenue destruction. Prohibition breeds dishonesty, which is being exemplified in our neighboring burgs, every day of the week, where legitimate sellers of legitimately manufactured goods, have been forced out of business. The agitators tell us they are satisfied at present, if they can enforce "Sunday closing," for it means the absolute abolition of the liquor business in the near future, together with the city's income of about $5000 per annum at present paid by the dealers for their privileges. The result of prohibition is exemplified at Santa Ana. The internal revenue office refuses to give us the number of government licenses issued, but according to best information I can obtain there is between 30 and 40. There is just as much liquor drank there as when the city derived a cash benefit from the traffic. Fortunes are made by those that have the monopoly at our county seat. Voters should take due notice and be governed accordingly. Respectfully, T. A. DARLING. Anaheim, March 28, 1006. Y, MARCH 29, 1906 NUMBER 23 City Trustees The city trustees met in regular session on Tuesday evening; present, trustees Rust, Darling and Berdrow; absent, Fletcher and Schwenckert. Superintendent of Streets Steadman reported Melrose street graded, water pipe laid and connection made for Beker’s residence on East Chartres street, cement sidewalk on Clementina street completed and accepted, R. Wiser’s house moved from Center street to the corner of Lemon and Chestnut and that no damage had been done; city teams engaged in hauling gravel and grading. Trustee Berdrow of the finance committee reported the auditing of bills against the city to the amount $150 91. Warrants were ordered drawn in payment. Trustee Darling of the ordinance committee reported resolution of intention No. 57, providing for widening roadway, between Lemon and Palm streets. Ordinance No. 180 providing specifications for cement crosswalks was read a second time and passed. It provides that crosswalks shall be four feet wide, six inches thick and be of uniform grade as to the nature of cement and sand. Contractors are not to construct more than half the street at a time in constructing them. L. Nemetz submitted a map of subdivision of his property at the corner Kelly with a murderous looking knife, when Mrs. Kelly, who had heard the scrimmage from her home not far away, and seeing her husband in peril from a knife thrust at the hands of an infuriated savage, grabbed up the shotgun, and running over, placed it in his hand. The cholo fled. Kelly sent in a call to police headquarters and both cholos were placed under arrest. Judge Howard gave them ninety days in the county jail. Death of Isaac R. Williams Isaac R. Williams, a well-known resident of Buena Park, died at the Fullerton hospital at 5 o'clock on Friday morning as a result of a surgical operation for appendicitis sustained the day before. Mr. Williams had been a resident of this valley since 1868, coming here in that year with his parents from the northern part of the state. He lived here continuously until the day of his death and was esteemed as an upright citizen throughout the countryside. Mr. Williams was in town, as was his usual custom, on the Saturday preceding his death, when he conversed freely with a number of friends. He was again in town on Tuesday and transacted business at the bank. To his friends he said nothing of ill health, and was apparently in the best Broadway, between Lemon and Palm streets. Ordinance No. 180 providing specifications for cement crosswalks was read a second time and passed. It provides that crosswalks shall be four met wide, six inches thick and be of uniform grade as to the nature of cement and sand. Contractors are not to construct more than half the street at a time in constructing them. L. Nemetz submitted a map of subdivision of his property at the corner Center and Olive streets.

Rea was standing in the Santa Ana depot at Los Angeles some days ago sitting for his train when he was approached by a man wearing a combrero and a long overcoat buttoned from his arm to his heels. The stranger engaged him in conversation, and pretty en said: "I'm going to get some breakfast. Don't you come and have breakfast on me?" Mr. Rea replied he had already had morning meal. "Won't you have a drink?" persist-the man with the sombrero. Our fellow-townsman said he never bank. Well, you'll shoot straighter," reended the other as he walked toward breakfast room. Do you know who that fellow was?" asked a depot menial. Mr. Rea replied he had not the measure of the man's acquaintance. That was Scotty, and he's not a bad boy either."
