On Sunday Closing The following letter has been addressed by Dr. H. A. Johnston to voters generally throughout the city: ANAHEIM, April 7, 1908. DEAR SIR:—Finding your name on the voters' register, and being of the conviction that too many men favor the conditions now existing in our city, I take the liberty to write you a few lines relating to the closing of our saloons on Sunday. It is not my desire to strike a blow at any man's business interests, nor interfere with anyone's legitimate means of obtaining a livelihood, yet, whether you are a brewer, wine merchant, saloon keeper, common citizen or prohibitionist, you must agree with me that the conditions prevailing here on Sundays are a disgrace to any respectable community (and such we claim to be.) You know as well as I do that the greater part of Sunday rodyism is caused by boys and men coming here from outside places, attracted by our wide open saloons and wineries. Could we be left alone the need of closing our saloons would not be so great, for our citizens are mostly law-abiding and well behaved. During the ten years of my residence in this city as a physician, I have dressed too many bruises, sewed up too many scalp cuts made with knives, guns, and bottles, set too many broken bones, etc., etc., on Sundays, directly resulting from the wide open conditions existing here, to make me hesitate for one moment from taking a firm stand in favor of Sunday closing, and, therefore, I appeal to you as man to man to give Anaheim a fair chance to have cleaner and more respectable Sundays. If you are engaged in the liquor business, I know that Sunday closing will affect your cash income. It will also affect mine; yet, from my acquaintance with you men thus engaged, I believe you will look at this matter fairly, and esteeming you to be men above your business. I feel that in asking you to vote for Sunday closing I am not asking Los Alamitos April 4, Sixty Siberians of the Beech Mission have found work with Lawrence Agricultural company scores and hundreds of other now employed in the fields tending and cultivating, and the strong money which flows nearly all from a beet sugar factory has begun to get into circulation midst. While we would be glad to hear other good rain, the estimate of J. L. Elam, agricultural superintendent, of the condition of the crook season, is a ten per cent shrine to the 8700 acres provided the average of rainfall, for the last years 1.07 inches, comes during month of April. Thus far the shows no appreciable shrinkage due to dry weather except in some situations where the surface dry too soon to make it possible for good seed bed in which to plant the whole there is a good reserve moisture below from the 9.4% which came up to February 20. While the raisers of cabbage and beans are compelled to take chances on market fluctuations, beet raiser knows the price per will receive when he signs his crop. Fluctuations of the sugar may not interest him on account of certainty. Supplies of coke and oil are daily, also limerock, accumulations for the beginning of the calendar on the bumper crop already in sack. The Lawrence Agricultural co is taking into consideration the value of sugar in molasses and adding six barrels per month to the head of horses and mules doing farm work. Their method is to sell it over their hay in cribs at time. They report that they better condition on the ration one moment from taking a firm stand in favor of Sunday closing, and, therefore, I appeal to you as man to man to give Anaheim a fair chance to have cleaner and more respectable Sundays. If you are engaged in the liquor business, I know that Sunday closing will affect your cash income. It will also affect mine; yet, from my acquaintance with you men thus engaged, I believe you will look at this matter fairly, and esteeming you to be men above your business. I feel that in asking you to vote for Sunday closing I am not asking too much, even if it causes you, as it will me, to sacrifice some money, feeling that you ought to help better the social conditions of our city. Concluding, let me state that this letter comes from me personally, and not through the suggestion of any prohibition party, anti-saloon league, church or society, but from my desire to see our city rank more favorably with her sister cities, and not be so much the subject of ridicule as she is now. Trusting you will not misconstrue this letter, but will see my motives and vote for a cleaner and quieter Sunday. I am yours very sincerely, (Singned) HERBERT A. JOHNSTON. Land! Land! Land!

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.

A Newspaper's Greatest Asset The greatest asset any newspaper can have is that intangible and yet exceedingly valuable thing known as goodwill. Nothing is harder to get or so easily lost. Some publishers have spent millions of dollars trying to gain it, but have failed utterly. Others have won it practically without the expenditure of a single dollar. The successful newspapers of today were not born yesterday. They were established—the most of them—many years ago and have attained their present position by patient, persevering and intelligent hard work. Goodwill is based on public confidence and confidence comes only after trial. Hence no newspaper can expect, under ordinary circumstances, to have the loyal support of the public as soon as it is launched. It must be tested in the crucible of experience; it must prove its right to exist. Promises count for nothing; it is their faithful performance that inspires confidence and wins support. Hence no newspaper can expect, under ordinary circumstances, to have the loyal support of the public as soon as it is launched. It must be tested in the crucible of experience; it must prove its right to exist. Promises count for nothing; it is their faithful performance that inspires confidence and wins support. The newspaper that touches the goal line is the one that is honestly conducted in the interests of the community it serves. It stands for political as well as moral righteousness. It protects its public from fraud, graft, and evil whenever it has the opportunity to do so. It wears no collar, is no man's organ and doesn't flinch when danger threatens. It does its level best to help the people to think right, to do right and to get the best there is out of life; it supports good men for office and opposes the unworthy even though they may be the nominess of its own party. A newspaper of this kind after awhile wins the confidence and esteem of the public. People believe in it and take it to their hearts. It comes to them every morning or evening as a friend laden with good things. They feel that the news it brings is reliable and that its editorial opinions are honest, even though they do not always agree with them. Out of this intimate relationship comes goodwill, that most important of all newspaper assets which often represents nine-tenths of its value. —Editor and Publisher, New York.
