Letter From an Old Friend Gilbert Landell writes from Colorado saying he has been appointed general manager of the Colorado Condensed Milk company, a branch of one of the largest milk firms in the world, the Mohawk Co. of Rochester, New York. In a letter to the editor he says: We are having a splendid business here in the heart of the Flatte valley, one of the fertile spots of the world, and the prospects for a big trade are most encouraging. I spent the last two years as superintendent of the Indiana Condensed Milk Co. of Sheridan, Indiana, and the two years previous as superintendent of the Utah Condensed Milk Co. of Richmond, Utah. So you see I have been on the go since I left Anaheim. I'm glad to get west again after a couple of years in the Ohio valley. It is too hot in the summer and too much mud in winter to suit me. We have a beautiful climate here. Not to be compared with Southern California of course in point of temperature in winter, but summers are cool and green... and winters, although rather cold are full of sunshine and are not damp and raw as on the other side of the Missouri. I see Tim Carrol's beet dumps in use all over the state. I'd like to see some of the old crowd from "home" again. I hear from there often, however, and learn that you are repeating 1884 as far as rain is concerned. The only Anaheim folks I've seen were the National Guard boys, with Herman Stern at their head in Los Angeles two years ago July 4th, when I made a flying visit through that city.

I suppose I could go on asking questions without end, but won't take up your time. I think I'm in this place to stay a while unless transferred to one of the eastern plants, and am very well content. Give my regards to all of your folks, particularly your good wife. Yours truly, GILBERT LANDELL. Jumpin' Googoos Orange Post Some weeks ago one of our exchanges undertook by the suggestive method to discover the real name of the J. G. club; now another exchange calls it the J. A. G. club. Is that meant to be suggestive too, since j-a-g by every method of authority, including the Rooseveltian, spells jag? To add to the gaiety of nations a Los Angeles paper repeats the misnomer and heralds it abroad o'er land and sea to the uttermost parts of the earth. Large Property Transfer A deed to a half interest in 200,000 acres lying in Orange, Riverside and San Diego counties was filed in the recorder's office at Santa Ana this week. The deed is from James L. Flood and Maud L. Flood, his wife, to Richard O'Neill. This deed is for a half interest only and does not conform to the report from San Diego county that two deeds have been filed there, one from O'Neill to Flood, and the other from Flood back to O'Neill, reserving through the immense Santa Margarita ranch a right of way for a railroad. The deed was signed in San Francisco- corder's office at Santa Ana this week. The deed is from James L. Flood and Maud L. Flood, his wife, to Richard O'Neill. This deed is for a half interest only and does not conform to the report from San Diego county that two deeds have been filed there, one from O'Neill to Flood, and the other from Flood back to O'Neill, reserving through the immense Santa Margarita ranch a right of way for a railroad. The deed was signed in San Francisco on December 12, 1906, and no reservation is made in it for a right of way. Celery Shipments Within the last week two record breaking shipments of celery have been sent out by the Celery Growers' association. A trainload of forty-six cars of fine celery left over the Southern Pacific last Saturday, Jan. 12, and another of forty-seven cars started east on Monday, just two days later. This is the largest shipment ever made by this association and is probably the largest shipment of celery ever made in the world. Both of these trains are 25 per cent larger than any shipment previously made. The train of forty-seven cars shipped Monday contained 7755 crates which contained 54,285 dozen or over 651,000 bunches of celery. This shipment will bring about $12,000 at the present prices. The celery raised in Orange county brings an immense amount of money into the county, and yet the grand jury objects to the growers protecting this valuable crop against damage by water. Considerable damage resulted to the celery crop from flood waters and the heavy rains. It is not possible for experts to make a careful investigation at this time and not until the ground and sufficiently to permit a close vision will the full extent of the be known. Supreme Court Affirms Decision of Judge Bledsoe in Favor of Valley Irrigators. Judgment of the lower court in the suit of the Anaheim Union Water company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company against O. B. Fuller and others has finally been affirmed by the supreme court and word to that effect was this week received by the attorneys for the water companies. This case was brought nearly seven years ago, or to be exact in 1900, to test the right of Fuller and others to divert the waters of the Santa Ana river upon non-riparian lands. The first hearing came before Judge J. S. Noyes in the Riverside superior court, where the application for a temporary injunction was denied the water companies. This was in May, 1900. The question was then raised by some of the stockholders and officers of the water companies as to whether the action be based entirely on the Durkee ranch property as had been done, and whether it were not advisable to bring to the suit all of the rights of the companies and their stockholders in Orange county, and associate counsel in Los Angeles were employed by the companies to assist attorneys Keech and Melrose, who had prepared the case and conducted the proceeding up to this point, and more than a year was spent in attempting to lay these additional rights before the court. These additional rights were, however, finally rejected by the court and the case brought to trial upon the cause as originally framed by the water companies.

These additional rights were, however, finally rejected by the court and the case brought to trial upon the cause as originally framed by the water companies' attorneys. The trial began December 1, 1902 at Riverside before Judge B. F. Bledsoe of San Bernardino who presided in the case at the request of Judge Noyes of the Riverside superior court. The trial lasted twenty-four days, two of which were spent by the judge and the attorneys in examining the land affected. Attorneys representing the water companies were E. E.

Pope and Judge W. Hutton of Los Angeles. For the case were E. W. Freeman of Los Angeles, E. R. Annable of San Bernardo, L. K. Chase and H. J. Stevens of Los Angeles. The decision was in favor of the water companies. Fuller appealed the court to the supreme court and continued to divert the water from the Santa River to irrigate several hundred acres of alfalfa land owned by him, and fact becoming known, he was cited contempt of court and convicted on ten counts. Because of the showing that he was advised by his attorney that he had a right to use the waiving the appeal, Fuller was keenly a nominal sum of one dollar each count, making eleven dollars and to pay into court. Fuller then appealed to the supreme court for a writ of review to set aside convictions, but it was denied, deciding that he must observe the briefs were filed in the supreme court and the appeal finally submitted for decision in August, 1906. The court has seemingly taken ample time to consider the matter and the supreme court secretary has just notified the attorneys for the water companies that the judgment of the lower court has been affirmed. The immediate effect of the decision will be to force Fuller to seek for water for purpose of irrigation from some other source than the Santa Ana river, but he seemingly has anticipated an adverse decision as he has gone to considerable expense in installing pumps and sinking wells and has met with satisfactory results in securing a supply of water that will make up in great measure for the river water that he will now be deprived of. This decision of the supreme court is a final decision as to the permanence and value of riparian rights in this state, and that the riparian owner has LESSON IN MAKING!
