ASKS FOR ONE DAY OF REST EDITOR GAZETTE:—“What the eye don’t see, the heart don’t feel,” is a sad but true saying, as is now evinced in Anaheim at the present time in discussing the question of Sunday closing. Were I allowed to publish what I have seen and gone through with personally, day and night on Sunday in our little city, many a father’s and brother’s vote would be turned at the coming city election on April 9th, and they themselves would be termed “long hairs” and “parsons.” When a young lady or an elderly mother is obliged to go around a block in order that she may avoid being insulted by some worthless character who comes to town on a Sunday to partake of our hospitality, knowing that he is a stranger within our gates and that his actions will not be a reflection on his character, or his credit, here or in his own home town—for he never had either here or there. When honest people must get home before the lights go out for fear their own ‘light’ will be put out, is it not time to have one day of rest? When you are told to keep your mouth shut or else take a slow ride behind a fast team to the east of town; is that liberty? Is it not time to have one day of rest? When men will enter a restaurant in broad daylight and rob the till; or when men will go through your pockets and relieve you of your spare change and then beat you because you had no more—is it not time? When men commit a crime and then jump into the first rig they come to and get out of town, is it not time for one day of rest? When men establish their headquarters in our midst for the violation of our federal laws, in smuggling Chinese into this country that they may date the greatly increased variety grown around Talberttown.

SOME BAD CITIES EDITOR GAZETTE—Of cities are none in Anaheim, if allowed to be his own judge. Men differ quite largely in their ideas as to what is Zen. It is not my purpose the good citizen, but only to tion to a class of men who put themselves in the category citizens, yet who, in one place are woefully defective. The class once referred to by Ja In his story of the battle slums, A Ten Years’ War saddest pictures that Mr. I not of the swarming ten even of the pitiful child liv of all childhood’s rights, bu of his own friends and nel was the day of the Greater election, and Mr. Riis, hav When men commit a crime and then jump into the first rig they come to and get out of town, is it not time for one day of rest? When men establish their headquarters in our midst for the violation of our federal laws, in smuggling Chinese into this country that they may come and labor here in direct competition with our own workingman, who is even now overly burdened with a family to support. taxes to pay, let alone additional expense to him in running down and ferreting out criminals. Is it not time for one day of rest? When men will come to our city and sell cheap jewelery without a license in direct competition with our home merchants who pay for protection from such as these; and then these same men were simply locating a place to rob—after the lights go out. Is it not time for at least one day of rest? When men are afraid to leave their homes at night without the protection of a miniature cannon in their hip pocket, knowing the facts as I know them, is it not time for one day of rest. When you meet your friend Mr. Brown and his family, the former a prominent merchant and capitalist in Los Angeles, and extend to him your hospitality at Anaheim for the next Sunday that he may look over our electric light and water works plants, together with our numerous advantages as a progressive city, that you might prevail on him to share his lot with us, and he should say: "I appreciate your kindness, George, but my wife and children say that Sunday is your busiest day, and for that reason we like to spend it at Orange or Huntington Beach, or by hiring a buggy and driving around the city. Isn't that a package to ask a person to untie? I cannot, can you? Is it not time for one day of rest? If you are in business in Pomona or some other town and a customer comes in, you tell him your are from Anaheim, he tells you it is a fine town, wide-open, lots of sport, money to burn, and on casual observation you notice his number, 18,062, or else sooner or later he is going to take a free ride and a free haircut at the expense of our state. Is it not time for one day of rest? In his story of the battle slums, A Ten Years' War saddest pictures that Mr. I. not of the swarming tenes even of the pitiful child lives of all childhood's rights, but of his own friends and nee was the day of the Greater election, and Mr. Riis, having vote at his home, went to the catch his train. On the plains half a dozen business men, of reform." One had even a resolution in a meeting discourtesy of local politics he had absolutely forgotten election day. A second one excuse that "They didn't riage;" a third didn't see what was, for things were just they were before; while a foe ed and said, "I don't care, business to attend to." And of these friends of reform train and lost his vote. "So Tammany came back Riis," and we are swearing I am afraid that we are sweeter wrong fellow. The real Tammany not the conscienceless rascalders our treasury and fatten substance. That one is a nterfeiter. It is the voter who a carriage to take him to the man who doesn't see what the business man who says 'business' and has no time voting; the citizen who 'wil see how the cat jumps' because not want to throw his vote cowardly American who does to 'antagonize' anybody; the 'washes his hands of politics." "The These are the real Tammany men after the boss's own hh every one whose vote he be two of these who give for nothing." The point to the above is to intelligent men to need further ening. An opportunity will you April 9th to declare What kind of a citizen will that day? What will be your excuse voting as a good citizen show member your duty and your privilege. Friends of reform be Tammany or shall it not? can you? Is it not time for one day of rest? If you are in business in Pomona or some other town and a customer comes in, you tell him your are from Anaheim, he tells you it is a fine town, wide-open, lots of sport, money to burn, and on casual observation you notice his number, 18,062, or else sooner or later he is going to take a free ride and a free haircut at the expense of our state. Is it not time for one day of rest? In conclusion I would say, that it is up to you young voter in casting your ballot; it is up to you Mr. Taxpayer to make your own bed and change the existing condition of things for your own sake, for the sake of your wife, and daughter, and son in particular and the good name of our city in general, to have one day of rest. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your kindness in allowing me space in your valuable paper, it is me to the tall timber with Mr. Chapman and the "parsons" and "long hairs," as they are called, for the present. GEO. O. HEFFNER. Huntington Beach Huntington Beach, March 26.—Shipments of celery for the week aggregate 20 cars, the smallest since the season commenced, bringing the total up to 2193 carloads. The last carloads of Golden Heart celery have just gone out, leaving only seventy-five cars of Green Top yet to be moved. Most of this will go out this week, and by the middle of next the season will have closed. The Vegetable Union has closed the Newland and La Bolsa packing-houses. The latter will be greatly enlarged the coming summer in order to accommodate nothing." The point to the above is that intelligent men to need further ening. An opportunity will be given you April 9th to declare what kind of a citizen will that day? What will be your excuse voting as a good citizen should member your duty and your privilege. Friends of reform be Tammany or shall it not? time to speak. Mrs. Huntington's Share Mrs. Huntington's share great wealth of her husband but $40,000 a year, the income trust fund of $1,000,000 in 4 securities. This is declared the basis of the settlement the railway magnate and preceding the petition for Mrs. Huntington has been $300,000 in her own right for years past, and among others owns the family residence son street. If Mrs. Huntington dies by Huntington does the trust law its funds become his property. By this arrangement he prevailing million dollars from going her blood relatives.

Rivers of Bros., Los Angeles, were in later a few days ago to look over their Top celery. Most of this is shipped to Chicago, from which it will be distributed among the buyyears, who are paying 30c a dollar or it. Mr. Curtis thought the 35c per dozen could easily be paid. This extra five cents will dealers to recuperate from losses on frost bitten celery during early February. Special celery train which every once in the opening of the season ended out the day's shipment, has been continued, and the morning still now take out the remainder crop. On Demmock, an employee of the West ranch, will engage in the new 40-acre ranch he purchased from S. C. Thomp reported price of $10,000. HOME BAD CITIZENS MR GAZETTE — Of course there is in Anaheim, if each man is to be his own judge. Differ quite largely, however, ideas as to what is a good citizen is not my purpose to portray a citizen, but only to call attention to a class of men who naturally themselves in the category of good yet who, in one point at least, fully defective. This is the case referred to by Jacob Riis. The story of the battle with the Ten Years' War, one of the pictures that Mr. Riis gives is the swarming tenements, nor the pitiful child lives deprived childhood's rights, but of a group own friends and neighbors. It day of the Greater New York and Mr. Riis, having cast his vide for the children. He allows the two married daughters, Mrs. G. E. Perkins and Mrs. J. B. Metcalf, and the son, Howard E. Huntington, $1200 a month, and the unmarried daughter, Marian, $800 a month. State Board of Trade Report The annual report of the State Board of Trade has just been made public and the following statistics from it will be found of interest: The fruit shipped out of the state in 1905 amounted to 99,410 carloads of ten tons each. The shipments of fresh fruit in 1905 exceeded the total for any previous year by 1500 carloads. The shipments of citrus fruit for 1905 amounted to 454,083 tons or 45,408 carloads of 10 tons each or 8840 carloads more than all the other fruit and nuts in all forms combined. The raisin industry has not perceptibly increased in recent years. The largest crop was in 1904, amounting to 53,134 tons or 5313 carloads. The crop fell off to 3263 carloads in 1905. The product of almonds and walnuts has not been increased much since 1899. Shipments of canned fruits since 1890 have more than doubled, reaching 9188 carloads in 1905. The wine and brandy sales throughout the state have been increased from 4765 carloads in 1891 to 10,642 in 1905. The tables of gain and loss for 1905, compared with 1904 show a net gain of 7357 carloads. The gains in carloads were as follows: Fresh deciduous fruits, 4110; citrus, 6833; canned, 580; vegetables, 1539; wine and brandy, 493. The losses were as follows: Dried fruits, 3829; raisins, 2150; nuts, 220. The fruit industry, considered in all its bearings on state development, was reported to stand first in importance. The butter output of the state increased 6,324,128 pounds in 1905. The revolutionizing influence of immigration. Eldorado Forty-one county, Cal. Vt. and know of nothing.

It day of the Greater New York and Mr. Riis, having cast his home, went to the depot to train. On the platform were frozen business men, all "friends." One had even introduced motion in a meeting, about the easy of local politicians. Yet absolutely forgotten that it was day. A second one gave as what "They didn't send a car a third didn't see what the use things were just as bad as before; while a fourth yawned," "I don't care, I have my to attend to." And every one of friends of reform took the loss his vote. Mammany came back," said Mr. and we are swearing at it. But said that we are swearing at the yellow. The real Tammany is conscienceless racal that plunts treasury and fattens on our life. That one is a mere countryman. It is the voter who waits for me to take him to the polls; the man doesn't see what's the use; mess man who says 'business is land has no time to waste on the citizen who 'will wait to the cat jumps' because he does not throw his vote away; the American who doesn't want organize' anybody; the fool who his hands of politics."

The losses were as follows: Dried fruits, 3829; raisins, 2150; nuts, 220. The fruit industry, considered in all its bearings on state development, was reported to stand first in importance. The butter output of the state increased 6,324,128 pounds in 1905. The revolutionizing influence of irrigation upon dairy industry was illustrated by tables showing the increase by pounds in the butter output of dairies, in irrigated counties, from 1900 to 1905 to be as follows: Fresno from 604,681 to 2,166,048; Kern from 129,848 to 323,363; Kings from 258,750 to 1,444,218; Merced from 623,-608 to 1,786,082; Sacramento from 742,-443 to 1,578,751; San Joaquin from 506,-047 to 1,468,991; Stanislaus from 423,185 to 2,006,171; Yolo from 533,525 to 1,124,-907. These eight counties show a growth in five years of 211 per cent, an annual average of 40 per cent. The total value of the dairy output of the state in 1905 was $21,572,902. The report contains the following significant and interesting admission: "Citrus fruit growing is not spreading in northern and central California as rapidly as conditions in that part of the state would warrant. In 1904 the shipments thence were 2216 carloads and in 1905 they were 2606 carloads. Citrus fruit growing has given Southern California great prestige, and deservedly so, and has added enormously to its material growth and wealth." Arid and Overflowed Lands Washington, March 27.—Reclamation in the Sacramento and San Joaquin river valleys is occupying attention at both ends of the capitol. Today Senator Flint and Representative Gillett introduced identical measures appropriating $200,000 for investigation and surveys of the valleys with a view to reclaiming overflowed land, irrigating arid land, etc. Senator Flint also introduced a bill authorizing the secretary of the interior to undertake the work of constructing reservoirs, dikes, canals, etc., to aid in the great project.

Before entering upon the improvement the secretary shall secure a promise from two-thirds of the land owners affected to refund money to be spent in twenty annual installments. When completed, the improvements to pass into the hands of associations of land owners, to be maintained at their expense. Refunds of improvement expenses are to go for further improvements. Five million dollars is appropriated to carry on contemplated work. Speaking of the objects of the bill, tonight, Senator Flint said: "This entire project has been carefully gone over by C. E. Grunsky, consulting engineer of the Reclamation service, who is familiar with the matter. "If this bill can be enacted into law I have no doubt that within a few years the entire problem will be solved, and that it would result in the reclaiming of 1,750,000 acres of overflowed land and the irrigating of 2,000,000 acres of arid land in the Sacramento valley, and also the reclamation and irrigation of over a million acres in the San Jacinto valley, making a total of 5,000,000 acres. The navigability of the rivers would not be interfered with, but, on the contrary, improved." E. W. McCollum was a business visitor in Los Angeles yesterday.

The latest number of the Consular reports sets it down that Switzerland is unsurpassed in material prosperity by any country in Europe. This prosperity is largely due to the strong call her scenery makes to wealthy tourists. Shut off from the outside world, Switzerland would be too poor to produce food enough to live upon. The report shows that the present population of the little confederacy is 3,315,343. Almost as many visitors as there are residents in Switzerland pass in at her gates every year, and they leave $30,000,000 in the hotels alone, any many millions are spent on railroad fares, carriage and boat hire, and what is particularly interesting for us to note, many millions are spent in shops for carved woodwork, toys of all kinds, souvenirs and laces. It was one time said that Florida lived upon fish and strangers. It is evident that Switzerland could flourish luxuriantly upon stranger alone. Now if Switzerland achieves an unsurpassed material prosperity largely out of her attractiveness to tourists in spite of the fact that her soil could not make her self-sustaining, what a means of surplus wealth getting might we not make out of our analogous position of being the center of interest to American travelers?—Call.
