BUGS IN THE BILL A copy of senate bill number 1063, known as an act to "declare the ownership of and to provide for and regulate the division, distribution and use of waters of flowing streams in the state of California," which was introduced in the senate by Senator Black, has been forwarded by Assemblyman Melrose to Attorney E. E. Keech of Santa Ana, with the request that he examine the document and point out the "bug" in it, if any. Attorney Keech made the examination as requested, and observed that among such a "swarm" of bugs it was hardly possible at such short notice to point out the most dangerous, but that he would in a short time be able to give the matter fuller attention and would make a written report to Assemblyman Melrose. The bill seems to be a thinly veiled attempt to revive the provisions of the Works bill, which was defeated a number of years ago. PEOPLE WITH THE PRESIDENT It is as evident now as at any time during the last seven years that the people of the country are siding with the executive and against congress. The reason is plain. The voters look upon the President as a truer and sincerer representative of their interests than is the legislative body. There is only one way for congress to make it... PEOPLE WITH THE PRESIDENT It is as evident now as at any time during the last seven years that the people of the country are siding with the executive and against congress. The reason is plain. The voters look upon the President as a truer and sincerer representative of their interests than is the legislative body. There is only one way for congress to make itself popular with the people and that is to show itself as earnest and as intelligent in the reform of long tolerated abuses as is the President himself. The people are with the executive in nearly all that he has accomplished or attempted to do. The people are not with congress because it has been unresponsive to popular demands. LARGEST IN THE WORLD The building of the greatest wireless telegraphy station in the world will be undertaken in Washington in a few days and the navy department expects to have it in operation within twelve months. The station will have an area of communication of three thousand miles. This means that bureau chiefs may sit in their offices in the navy department building and talk with battleships at almost any point on the North Atlantic. It is even hinted that they hope to communicate with the French station on the Elfel tower in Paris. The station will be by virtue of its power a central station for others along the coast. The tower will be of masonry and of steel six hundred feet high. Two Japanese battleships are being repaired after having run upon a reef in a storm, which leaves nine battleships in the Mikado's navy, four of them obsolete tubs captured from Russia in the Sea of Japan fight. At the risk of being charged with boasting, it may be said the United States has twenty-six battleships, all of them powerful, well-built ships, and four giant 26,000-ton ships, the largest in the world, in course of construction. Moreover, Gen., Otis has recovered his health. The Japanese bogy seems somewhat insignificant, does it not? The opinion now among public men and journalists is that President Taft will start out with an entire new cabinet and that not one of the Roosevelt cabinet will remain. This is as it should be for cabinet minher home in that city at 3 o'clock on Thursday morning, Feb. 18, was in her 70th year, and succeed to a stroke of paralysis following fracture of the hip bone some ago. While walking from one to another at her home sheFER an obstruction, receiving in which, bringing on the stroke, raysis, proved fatal. She severely, but was conscious of short time before passing into final shadow. Mrs. Koll was a native of Ny, and was a lady of education refinement. Gentle of mind kindly spirit, none knew her love her, and her untimely end brought sadness to the many who knew her in her lifetime. She came to Anaheim with family in January, 1860, sailing San Francisco in the schooner Among the passengers was J. H. who is yet an honored resident of the city. Mrs. Koll removed to Los Ames in 1892. She purchased a lot corner of Spring and Seventh which is now one of the most able pieces of property in this She also owned a handsome in the residence section. The body, in conformity wishes, was cremated, on Saturday noon. The funeral services private. The ashes will probably interred beside those of loved in the Anaheim cemetery. BURNED BY GASOLINE John Resh is usually a when it comes to negotiating estate deal, but he hustled his garage on Sunday morning more accelerated clip than other attaches his movements. His refused to move and he was put it with gasoline which he poured to the primer with a cup. Suddenly gasoline ignited from there, and he found his face and enveloped in flames. His mustache were burned, save a cap protected the former, and was severely burned about the neck. He ran from the yard and threw himself upon the rolling over and over in an effort to extinguish the flames. Mrs. Resh came to his asses and after hard work the flame put out. Attention was then the garage, where a fire burn der the auto. A fifty-gallon gasoline was in the garage, but did not ignite, although fire to be burning all around it. Blaze was put out without much difficulty and the machine and saved from destruction. Mr. Resh had his burns The opinion now among public men and journalists is that President Taft will start out with an entire new cabinet and that not one of the Roosevelt cabinet will remain. This is as it should be for cabinet ministers are but men with memories, jealousies and prejudices. Some of the members of the Roosevelt cabinet have aspired to the presidency. Only one has attained it. There are at least a hundred available men from whom the new president may select his advisers and assistants. The press and the people of the country are taking sides on the Pure Food question and it is reassuring to see that the majority is in favor of pure food unsophisticated without benzoate of soda, notwithstanding the faculty has taken issue with Dr. Wiley. Competition will settle the question. Manufacturers who use the benzoate will have to publish it and they will soon find that the unadulterated article will prove the rule of the survival of the fittest. If Diaz shall survive until the last month of 1909, he will have been the president of Mexico for twenty-five consecutive years. The third term question has never troubled Mexico, which is a republic in name only. Nevertheless, the Diaz autocracy is the best government the country has ever had, and if such government could be transferred to Cuba, there would be better hope for that unstable people. A resident of East Broadway informs us that he can stand on his front porch and count nine new residences in course of erection. OBITUARY In Brawley, Imperial county, Feb. 14, Mildred Kellogg, aged 12 years, 2 months and 21 days, eldest child of E. L. and Gertrude E. Kellogg. The remains were brought to Los Angeles and interred in Inglewood Park. She was born in West Anaheim, Nov. 24, 1897, where her father and mother resided until a year ago last January, at which time she went with them to Brawley. She was a child of a remarkably sweet and quiet disposition and a general favorite with all who knew her. Her winning ways and kind, loving disposition will linger with us through life's short journey, and may the blessed assurance that we shall meet our loved ones on the other shore comfort and sustain the parents and relatives in this affliction, and teach us all to be also ready. TAG DAY A SUCCESS The early man downtown on Saturday morning found that the early bird catches the tag, for the ladies were out in quest of dimes and few were given the overlook. The city was divided into four districts, with the following ladies in charge of the work: Mrs. McLauchlin, Mrs. Wallop, Mrs. Spencer and Mrs. Johnston and Mrs. Dyer. A bevy of little girls, and others not so little, rendered valuable assistance in the work of gathering in the dimes. About $110 was cleared, when rain interfered with the evening's work. The money goes to the fund for furnishing the public library. HORSE STOLEN There is every evidence that another horse and rig were stolen in Anaheim on Tuesday night. W. F. Coulter Jr. of Fullerton drove over here in a top-buggy to attend the entertainment, "The Deestrick Skule," and tied and blanketed his horse at a post on the east side of the street. When the entertainment was over the rig was not to be found. HORSE STOLEN There is every evidence that another horse and rig were stolen in Anaheim on Tuesday night. W. F. Coulter Jr. of Fullerton drove over here in a top-buggy to attend the entertainment, "The Deestrick Skule," and tied and blanketed his horse at a post on the east side of the street. When the entertainment was over the rig was not to be found. Indications show that the horse was untied and driven away. The animal was a mouse-colored bay, about 14 hands high, rangy and had no marks on him except a few small splashes of white on each side of the back extending for several inches from the harness saddle. His tail was bobbed square off at the hocks and he was shod flat in front with corks behind. The rig was recovered some miles west of town on Tuesday night, where it had been abandoned by the thief. The horse had been driven into a guy wire and the buggy smashed. The thief's hat was found at the side of the buggy.
