DOINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL Electric Theater Coming, to Remain Six Months—Fulerton Man Wants to Take a Fail Out of Municipal Ownership S. E. Blodgett of Santa Ana addressed the city board of trustees on Thursday evening relative to procuring a license for opening an electric theater here. Mr. Blodgett had been casting his eagle eye over municipal ordinances thereunto appertaining, and had discovered that an impost of $3 per night was the minimum scale prescribed. However he was persuaded this rate had no reference to electric theaters which came to remain for six months or a year. Mr. Fiscus expressed the opinion that the electrical theater would be a good thing to amuse the children, and attract more people to the city on Saturday evenings and Sundays, and, Mr. Blodgett continued, the theater contemplated giving two exhibitions each evening, with a possible occasional matinee. The show would begin at 7:30, and continue for an hour. The trustees decided if Mr. Blodgett would pay $16 for a year's license in advance, he might advance with his hosts upon the municipality. This deposit has been made and the new playhouse will be open to the public in a few days. G. C. Wilson of Fullerton addressed the board relative to being granted a license for an electrical-supply store. Mr. Wilson claims to be an experienced electrician, and submitted prices for $528 50; light, $663 70. Delinquents collected—Water $73 70; license light, $99 60. Delinquents reported Water, $49 35; license, $1; light$721 88; municipal 1906 fund, $90 Broadway widening, $417 73; immeasurement No. 4, $575. Total available in treasury, $10,737 66. The clerk's report corresponded that of the treasurer. The recorder reported three court during the month; fines cost $20. Street superintendent reportederal water connections made; signs placed on roads entering the and sidewalks on Chestnut and dina streets completed and accepted. Bills amounting to $5024 277 audited and ordered paid. All the municipal favorites appeared a golden trough. A Norway Town Without Taxes "The town of Faleide, No imposes no taxes on its lucky itants," says the London, England stander. During the last years the authorities at Faleide sold over $5,000,000 worth of land, by judicious replanting, provided for a similar income thirty years. In consequence this source of commercial wealth there are no taxes in Faleide local railways and telephone free, as well as education and one-upon the King's birthday!" How Utopian the suggestion first blush, of a "town without taxes!" Yet the explanation is ple. Instead of permitting a forest lands to become private property, to be cut over, burned and converted into a desert town has simply retained an arsenal." The trustees decided if Mr. Blodgett would pay $16 for a year's license in advance, he might advance with his hosts upon the municipality. This deposit has been made and the new playhouse will be open to the public in a few days. G. C. Wilson of Fullerton addressed the board relative to being granted a license for an electrical-supply store. Mr. Wilson claims to be an experienced electrician, and submitted prices for his work. His charges for making electrical switches were placed at $1.50, and for outlets the same. The city now charges 80 cents for switches and $1 for outlets. Under present regulations the city does the work, as well as wiring and all other work, at cost price. The difference shows the profits of private ownership. The board laid the matter over for further consideration. A petition bearing signatures of R. Fossek, M. Nebelung, Wm. Konig and Tommy Dietrich complained of the noise of Grimshaw's planing mill as being a nuisance, as well as the smoke emitted by the steam laundry. City Attorney Melrose, on being asked relative to the legal status of the case, stated these nuisances, if such they indeed were, were matters affecting petitioners privately, their recourse being in the courts, and not for adjudication by the board. He advised that petitioners confer with the planning mill and laundry people, and see if an amicable solution of the matter could not be arrived at. The communication was laid on the table. It developed that the large water pipe on Broadway extending west of Los Angeles street was located at a point where it makes impossible the laying of a cement curb for the sidewalk now being laid on that thoroughfare. The pipe further west on Broadway rises to the surface. The clerk was instructed to notify the water company to shift the pipe to a new location and place it a sufficient depth not to interfere with city streets. Resolutions of intention No. 70 and 71, providing for widening Los Angeles street and north of Sycamore street, were adopted. Nine feet are taken from the west property line and ten feet from the east side, in order to confine them directly on the blood and mucous membrane. How Utopian the suggestion first blush, of a "town wide taxes!" Yet the explanation is simple. Instead of permitting a forest lands to become private property, to be cut over, burned and converted into a desert town has simply retained an area its own use, and has administered the forests thereon in accordance with forestry principles. In consequence, the community enjoys permanent income from a permanent estate; an income, further sufficiently large to render tax unnecessary. There still remains something the public domain. A portion this is occupied by our national ests. Other portions are occupied by coal lands. Shall we be wise time and retain these coal lands the benefit of the whole people shall we permit them, too, into the hands of trusts which another coal famine comes, charge us what the market bear? The experience of Fa presages eloquently the possibility of our national forests, as this slaughter on privately owned ests continues and the price of ber and all lumber products aloft like the Fourth of July loon. Who, then, will not commute the wisdom which has conserved much, at least, of our nationalitage for the benefit of all the ple throughout all time? CUTTING OFF THEIR NOSE.

The clerk was instructed to notify the water company to shift the pipe to a new location and place it a sufficient depth not to interfere with city streets. Resolutions of intention No. 70 and 71, providing for widening Los Angeles street and north of Sycamore street, were adopted. Nine feet are taken from the west property line and ten feet from the east side, in order to conform to present sidewalk lines. Mr. Rothaermel having deeded the city the necessary frontage along his property line and having constructed a cement sidewalk, he was excluded from the district upon which assessments are levied for widening the thoroughfare. Bonds of F. A. Backs jr., J. J. Schneider and Max Nebelung, in $5000, as commissioners for extending Oak street were presented and approved. Building permits were granted to G. W. Vansyckle for a home on Palm street, $550; Mrs. Inda, dwelling on Vine street, $1200; T. S. Armstrong, residence on Kroeger street, $2000.

ELY BROTHERS, & Warren Street, New York HUGE DRAINAGE PROJECTS Undertaking for Reclaiming Mills of Ares of Swamp, Now Useless As the Desert—Big Swamp Areas As the western desert is being made to bloom under Uncle Sam's tutelage, so the waste swamp places will be made to contribute their quota to the great total of American farm homes. The country has authorized the appropriation and expenditure of $40,000,000 for the construction of huge irrigation dams, canals and tunnels to subjugate the Great American Desert; why should it not look with equal favor upon the redemption of the 75,000,000 acres or more of swamp lands, now equally as useless as the desert, but equally fertile and productive when reclaimed? As a matter of fact the national drainage idea has already made great progress and is growing apace, so that it would cause no great surprise among those who have kept a watchful eye on the movement, should congress pass such a law next session. There are a number of reasons why government drainage should appeal to the country even more strongly than government irrigation. In the first place every eastern state has large areas of swamp lands and instead of being located in the midst of forbidding deserts it is situated in comparatively populous sections of the country with transportation facilities passed in the senate, we can through the house." It is understood that a detailed effort is to be made next to secure its enactment into law and always an aggressive call for such internal improvement goes without saying that Mr. Roosevelt will lend it his support. The bill provides that the just as in the case of the initial fund, shall become a revolving viz., the cost of the reclamation be borne by the lands benefited paid back to the government, be used over again on new ad infinitum. It appropriates the receipt sales for two years amounting about $1,000,000 and also correct appropriation of $2,000, even should the latter be still there would still be an annual automatic appropriation about $500,000, to be used over. With the low cost of age reclamation, this would be the reclamation service to very creditable start. Among the great swamps in the country are the Sacramento San Joaquin valleys, California Kankakee swamps of Indiana large projects in Minnesota Illinois, the St. Francis Bay entire lower Mississippi river, the Great Dismal South Virginia, the Everglades of and various others, large and Of these the Everglades is the best, though the drainage of other Mississippi lands, taken as in connection with river imme and telephones are as education and drinks King's birthday!"

There are a number of reasons why government drainage should appeal to the country even more strongly than government irrigation. In the first place every eastern state has large areas of swamp lands and instead of being located in the midst of forbidding deserts it is situated in comparatively populous sections of the country with transportation facilities already developed and in the second place the regeneration of these lands would be a simple and cheap engineering task. While government irrigation reclamation is costing in the neighborhood of $30 an acre, the official estimates of swamp reclamation run from $3 to $6 and $7 an acre. Instead of being called upon to vote for improvements of far distant lands, thousands of miles away from their constituencies, every congressman in voting for drainage would directly benefit his own state. Having already helped the west by favorable irrigation legislation, why should he not assist the homeseekers in his own district to secure a fertile farm? The value of such lands when reclaimed—considerable has already been accomplished by private enterprise—runs from $50 to $200 an acre. With all our swamp areas thus improved, and taking $50 as a basis, we would be annexing an inland empire worth between three and four billion dollars and adding to the country's productive farm area a territory equal to the great states of Illinois and Kansas, or to all of the New England states with Pennsylvania and Maryland added, or to the combined states of Virginia, Tennessee and Louisiana. The query as to whether such reclamation is practicable is answered by the engineers of the irrigation service itself whose already completed great topographic surveys, started years ago, would enable them to at once begin active drainage reclamation. But again: with every eastern eral large projects in MinneIllinois, the St. Francis B. entire lower Mississippi riviron, the Great Dismal SVirginia, the Everglades of and various others, large and Of these the Everglades is therest, though the drainage of the Ever Mississippi lands, taken as in connection with river imment, is a vast work of some 000 acres.

The query as to whether such reclamation is practicable is answered by the engineers of the irrigation service itself whose already completed great topographic surveys, started years ago, would enable them to at once begin active drainage reclamation. But again, with every eastern state selfishly interested, will congress feel like appropriating great sums of money for the purpose? The huge surplus in the treasury today could not perhaps be put to better use as it would not only create homes and national wealth out of nothing but give employment to a great army of men. Direct appropriations, however, would not be necessary any more than they were in the passage of the national irrigation act. Last winter a bill introduced by Senator Flint of California was favorably reported by the, senate public lands committee, appropriating the money derived from the sales of government lands in the eastern states, and while the bill was not reached for a vote, Senator Flint took a poll of the senate and found a generally favorable sentiment. In speaking to him of its chances, Representative Steenerson of Minnesota, the originator of the bill in the house, said: "Flint, if you will get the bill The supervisors were in seMonday forenoon, the calling t of the board being mainly for pose of fixing the county tax rafigures of the county auditor cepted and adopted by the supthe rate being a total of $1.70 and $1.30 inside incorporated the county.
