CHAPMAN'S PHONOGRAPH If any candidate for office in Orange county, in the present campaign or in any other to eventuate in the future, desires the support of the anti-saloon league; and he should journey to Los Angeles to confer with Br. Chapman, the snowy-haired apostle of prohibition, as did S. O.Walker in his late lamented effort two years ago to elect himself sheriff of Orange county, let him take a word of friendly warning and be careful of his statements to the apostle; for, somewhere tucked away in the recesses of his office, reposes an open-mouthed phonograph, ready to absorb every word uttered by the seeker after a place at the public crib; and this may be turned into a "record" to tickle the ears of the unfaithful, rising up to disconcert the candidate for ever and ever so long. The voice of Walker is said to emanate in a perfectly natural mouthed phonograph, ready to absorb every word uttered by the seeker after a place at the public crib; and this may be turned into a "record" to tickle the ears of the unfaithful, rising up to disconcert the candidate for ever and ever so long. The voice of Walker is said to emanate in a perfectly natural manner from the graphaphone. Those who wish to hear it may do so on application to Dr. Chapman at his Los Angeles office. Walker signed the anti-saloon pledge card, and secured Br. Chapman's assistance. The latter laid the matter before James McFadden, the anti-saloon boss at Santa Ana; but James was too sly a bird to be caught by any such chaff. When asked whether he had signed the little joker, Walker strenuously denied it all over the county. He made the rounds of the saloons vehemently protesting, on his word of honor, he had not signed it. On the eve of the election he calmly admitted it. He had campaigned the county upon a falsehood in his effort to get into office. TODAY'S CONVENTION The republican county convention meets at Santa Ana today, and will nominate candidates for superior judge and member of the assembly. It will also name delegates to the state and senatorial district conventions. The state convention will name four delegates at large to the national republican convention. The other 16 delegates to which the state is entitled will be named by congressional district conventions to be held later. The delegates to the senatorial state and senatorial district conventions. The state convention will name four delegates at large to the national republican convention. The other 16 delegates to which the state is entitled will be named by congressional district conventions to be held later. The delegates to the senatorial district convention will nominate a candidate for senator from the Thirty-ninth district. Two delegates from Orange county, weaned away by the railroad push from the people, will give Estudillo the nomination. Let loyal republicans see to it that clean men, free from machine control, be selected for these delegations. The fight for and against Estudillo has been made. Let the county convention today determine whether the people or the railroad are to be in control of the politics of this senatorial district. The insolent attitude of the corporation millionaires in the Senate towards the reforms advocated by President Roosevelt will arouse public sentiment all the more in support of the President's policies. What the country at large needs is a national Lincoln-Roosevelt republican league and another congress like this one ought to produce some such a result.

In the Pacific Northwest, the Washington Forest Fire Association has just elected officers at Seattle and begun work for the year with 3,000,000 acres under its care. The plans include a system of patrol by rangers resembling the work done by the United States Forest Service in guarding against and extinguishing fires. Organizations of similar kind and for like purpose are at work in Oregon and Idaho. In the latter state, a portion of the expense is borne by taxation and paid from the state treasury. A western railroad company which holds large tracts of timber has taken steps to guard its property from fire, and during the short time that its plans have been in operation, it has met with most encouraging success. Similar work is being done on the other side of the continent. Forest owners in Maine have gone to work in the same systematic way to control the forests' great enemy, fire. Like organizations are found in other parts of the country, showing how fully it is now realized that protection against fire is of the greatest importance. It is safe to say that fires in this country have destroyed more timber than lumbermen have cut. When timber was abundant, the waste passed almost unnoticed, but now that a scarcity is at hand and an actual wood famine threatens in the near future, the owners of forest lands are waking up and taking action to save what is left.

County Expenses According to the books of County Auditor C. D. Lester, it cost the snug little sum of $36,656.90 to conduct the business of the county for the month just ended, and warrants covering that amount have been duly drawn by that official. The particular items of expense follow: Salaries of county officers.....$4,066 34 Care of indigent and poor.....2,354 38 Care of county park.....93 46 Advertising Orange county.....25 00 Books for law library.....93 00 Labor on county roads.....433 70 Rebates or personal property taxes.....117 28 Current expenses.....3,432 51 Current expenses at county schools.....2,299 47 Books for school library.....202 71 School buildings.....1,715 92 Salaries of teachers.....10,041 75 Special work at schools.....266 12 High school teachers salaries..3,479 41 Books for teachers institute...1 10 Bonds and coupons.....4,128 75 Total.....$36,656 90 Orange county, wonderfully productive in the things that grow in the earth, is making a state record along another line. A recent bulletin of the State Board of Health shows that Orange county is the seventh in the state for the number of marriages recorded. In 1906, it was in the ninth place. By its record for 1907 the county climbed above Fresno and San Diego counties. In 1906 Orange county recorded 524 marriages and in 1907 it recorded 638, a gain of 21.8 per cent. A very large per cent of the marriages was of parties from Los Angeles who came down on the electric line. Rev. W. H.

West some days ago on the amended petition of George Hagar in which Surveyor-General W. S. Kingsbury, Secretary of State C. F. Curry and Gov. J. N. Gillett are ordered to issue a patent to Hagar for 13.55 acres of tidelands in Newport Bay or appear in the Superior court of Orange county at 10 o'clock on May 15 to show cause why they should not issue the patent. Hagar in his petition claims that the State Land Office refuses to issue him a patent for 13.55 acres, which should have been included in a patent issued him for tidelands on September 26, 1906. E. G. Kuster of Los Angeles is Hagar's attorney. Rev. W. H. Wotton, rector of the Episcopal Church of Santa Ana has been granted a leave of absence, and the latter part of this month he will start for England, his native land, which he has not visited in twenty years. He will attend the Pan-Anglican Congress, convening in Westminster Abbey on June 15.
