PLAINTIFF GETS JUDGMENT
Verdict in Favor of J. C. O'Neil for $125 and Costs of Suit
The suit of J. C. O'Neil vs. F. A. Wright, an action to collect $270 for wages due, was tried before Judge Howard on Friday, occupying the entire day. The judge took the case under advisement until 10 o'clock on Monday morning, when judgment was rendered in favor of plaintiff, in the sum of $125 and costs. Defendant set up the claim that plaintiff was due no wages, because of a lease agreed upon between the parties, whereby the plaintiff was to be in possession of the Menars ranch on the Garden Grove road for a term of five years. The court held that while there had evidently been an agreement as to the lease, yet the terms thereof had not been agreed upon, and as the law provides that such instruments should be in writing, no such lease could be recognized. Richard Melrose represented plaintiff and Horace Head of Santa Ana the defendant.

SPECIAL SCHOOL LEVY
County Superintendent Makes Report to Supervisors
County Superintendent of Schools Mitchell has given notice to the County Auditor of his approval of the requests of ten of the school districts for a special tax.
Hitherto school districts desiring an extra supply of money were unable to get it. This was true of all the districts except Santa Ana. Under a new law any school district wanting extra money to be used for the same purposes for which the county and state school money is used may apply for it to the county school superintendent, and when approved by him the Board of Supervisors levies a special school tax, in the district to raise the money.
The superintendent has given notice of the necessity of raising the usual school money. This year the minimum amount to be raised is $53,053, based upon the number of census children in the county. Last year the sum was $50,603.
The special school appropriations approved by the superintendent are: Anaheim $2000, Bay City $400, Fullerton $1000, La Habra $600, Laurel $200, Loara $800, Olinda $2000, Santa Ana common $14,000, Santa Ana high school $24,000, Springdale $150.

NOTABLE EXHIBIT AT FAIR
PLAT OF GROUND SHOWING 14 IRRIGATION PRACTICES
So-Called Corrugation Idea is Best Adapted to Sugar Beet, Alfalfa and Grain Land with a Gentle Slope
Fourteen approved methods of irrigating, adapted to practically every kind of land and the various tree, root and vine crops, are being demonstrated on a 15-acre tract in the Spokane valley within a stone's throw of the city limits in connection with the 17th session of the National Irrigation Congress in Spokane. The purpose is to afford the delegates to the Congress and visitors an opportunity to study the best known means of supplying moisture by artificial means to orchards, berry and sugar beet fields, vineyards and hay and grain lands. There are demonstrations by manufacturers of apparatus used in modern irrigation. Ten acres of land has been set aside for displays of machinery.
What is considered by experts to be the acme of scientific irrigation and at the same time the most economical method is being shown in the use of porous tile pipe laid under not as satisfactory.
The side dike system is used to best advantage on ground with a uniform slope. The method is to build dikes 100 feet apart, from eight to twelve inches high, depending upon the character of the soil. Water is taken from the head ditch and spread in a sheet over the areas between the dikes. The surplus passes into a ditch and is carried to the next area.
The sprinkler plan calls for spray-sprinklers arranged between the trees or vegetable rows and so placed that they water all of the ground. This system can be used only where water is supplied under pressure.
Another system is to distribute water to each tree in an open flume. The water is supplied from a head ditch. This is similar to the piping method to individual trees, but is a waste of water, though the cost or installation is less.
C. M. Speck, chairman of the practical demonstration committee of the irrigation congress, is assisted in the demonstrations by H. Delepine, an experienced engineer, who has charge of the work, and practical irrigators and growers from various parts of the United States and Canada, explaining the various methods of watering land to obtain the best results.
ORANGE COUNTY GETS ROAD
NO COUNTY DISPLAY AT THE SEATTLE FAIR
Anaheim Visitor Sees Many Exhibits from Other Counties, but Looks Vain for Home Display—Who Lies the Blame?
Editor Gazette.—It may be presumption on my part to undertake to a little criticising as to the abode and that by so doing relieve myself of the feelings I had when visiting the above fair at Seattle,and whon going up and down the California building and viewing the magnificent exhibit. I failed to find one exhibit of fruit, vegetables, wines or anything to show that there was such place as Orange county on the map. I hung my head in shame when touching by the officials in charge of the California exhibits that Orange county was only represented by an exhibit of oil by the Dominion oil company, an exhibit by a Santa Ana school of school work and an exhibit by the Los Alamitos Sugar factory. This is all there was from Orange county. This I know for a fact I took the trouble to look up the tries on the official list, and

WEDDED ILLEGALLY
Orange County License Used in Los Angeles County
The second illegal marriage in a fortnight because of an ineffective marriage license is reported. Thomas C. Palmer and Miss Louisa Schulz thought they were married in Los Angeles the other day. They had what looked to them like a wedding, with witnesses and a preacher, but there was a sad mistake. A license issued in Orange county was used in Los Angeles county, which under the law invalidates the ceremony.
The license was issued on August 12 by County Clerk Williams to Thos. C. Palmer, aged 30, of Los Angeles, and Lucile Shultz, aged 23, of Glendale. On Aug. 12 Rev. Wm. Davies of Los Angeles performed the ceremony at Glendale, Los Angeles county, in the presence of the young lady's relatives. He used the Orange county license.
Tuesday morning County Recorder Peters received the certificate from Rev. Davies for recording. The certificate was recorded, but the county recorder wrote a letter to Rev. Davies informing him of the fact that the ceremony he had performed at Glendale was not legal.
Palmer gave his occupation as that of an advertiser, and Miss Shultz gave hers as that of a school teacher.
CHURCH NOTES
German Methodist Church. Preaching at the German Methodist Church, Broadway and Clementina streets. Every Sunday at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Rev. Lane of Garden Grove will preach.
Christian Endeavor society meets at Masonic hall every Sunday morning at 9:45. A cordial invitation to the public to attend.
Rev. Markle will deliver the sermon at the union services next Sunday evening at 7:45 in the Presbyterian church.
It is all very well to "blow our own horn" around home and say we can do, but much better to away from home and blow our head and back up what we say by showing the real article. Orange county has plenty of good men to do work if they could only be enthusiastic a little more and help boost this county by the sea. When I see such exhibits as was shown in Seattle by Alameda county of fruits, and from Kern and Tulare, so from San Diego of her dried fruit clusters of luscious raisins, etc., away up to Sacramento in the north.
What is considered by experts to be the acme of scientific irrigation and at the same time the most economical method is being shown in the use of porous tile pipe laid under the ground. The principle is the antithesis of drainage in that pores and joints of the pipes give out sufficient water to supply the plant life above them. This plan is declared to be practicable in supplying moisture for fruit trees, vegetables, berries and almost every kind of product, the advantage being that the water carried by the pipes is discharged directly below the roots of the plants, instead of on the surface of the soil.
In comparison with the foregoing plan there is being shown the primitive method, practiced by irrigators before it was learned how to distribute water economically and to the best advantage. No grading or leveling was done on this tract; in fact, in contour it is as Nature left it. Water is taken to the highest point on the land to distribute itself over the ground. The idea in this is to show waste of water and soil by washing and erosion.
The individual system, also demonstrated, calls for piping water to every tree. To make it effective the water must have a head. The pipe, which may be small, is run to within three feet of a tree to discharge water into a circular ditch or basin built around the tree. This method is desirable in districts where a small amount of water is desired to do a large amount of irrigation. There is no loss from evaporation or seepage, and only the ground in which the tree grows receives the water. The cost of installing this system is much larger than for the open ditch or flume system, but the difference is soon made up on the cost of water, or where it is paid for by the acre-foot.
Subirrigating by means of open ditches is also shown. The ditches are of such depth that the water is absorbed without moistening the surface. This method is advantageous where soil has a tendency to bake or become crusted after watering.
Two tracts show the practicability
INSTITERS' PROTEST
Anaheim, Cal., Aug. 15, 1909.
The protestant churches of Anaheim, in mass meeting assembled, resolve to protest against the serving of free wines, by the California Wine company, or by any other company, at the State Agricultural Fair, and especially against the serving of such wines by young women, in peasant attire, as now advertised by the California Wine company.
We believe that this suggestive European custom of barmaids is insulting to American decency and ought not to be tolerated in a state fair, managed by officers appointed by the state and held at state expense.

NOTES OF A TRIP
On the 12th of July we boarded S. P. train at Anaheim for a trip above exposition and to enjoy a holiday viewing the wonders of the Pacific Coast.
On arriving at San Francisco took advantage of a few hours off there to see the much-talked park at Golden Gate, and to see progress the city has made since earthquake. The ruins of the quarry are still to be seen in many places but the misfortune has not deterred the progressiveness of its citizens, buildings are being erected in every quarter; yes, higher up in the than ever. Skyscrapers, sure, they are. One would think the wind that have up there would blow some them over.
Tuesday evening we left for Portland, Seattle and the north, that might see by daylight the magnificent

All there was from Orange This I know for a fact for trouble to look up the en-the official list, and to views of the Shasta route on the S. P. railway. The scenery as we went along was grand, especially where the Shasta Springs are. Everyone got off here and had a glass or more of Shasta soda water, cold as ice; some carrying it away in bottles for future use.
We arrived in Seattle on Thursday at 6:30 p.m.; were met at station by Dr. Paschall, whose wife accompanied us on the train, and who kindly invited us to very comfortable rooms with a friend of his from Los Angeles.
Not wishing to take in the fair on our outward trip, we took C. P. R. steamer next morning for Vancouver, B.C., a most beautiful trip of 85 miles among the islands of the Northern Pacific. Arriving at Vancouver in the evening we were met at wharf by Ed Stark with whom and his good wife we spent three weeks very pleasantly taking in the sights and surroundings of this fast growing Canadian city.
Vancouver is certainly a go-ahead city and if our American cities on the coast don't look to their laurels they will have to step down and take second place to our Canadian friends, Within the last 8 years she has increased her population over 60,000,the last census giving her over 100,000 inhabitants. Everybody is boosting the place, even young ladies having

Orange county on the map. Our head in shame when told officials in charge of the exhibits that Orange county represented by an exhibit by the Dominion oil company exhibit by a Santa Ana school work and an exhibit of Alamitos Sugar factory. All there was from Orange this I know for a fact trouble to look up the enclosed official list, and to almost every county in the well represented by their hand making up, in my estimate the finest and best display of any state represented. Was the trouble? Who is those are the questions like to have answered, as I feel that the united chambers force of the county had designated $1000 to make an offer of the products of the council given to the supervisors after exhibits, or is it at the county seat? To be reserve to help pay the extra carnival of products to Santa Ana in September? Special told me in Seattle that we continually being asked orange county, and said it too bad not to have an item from this county.
Bad nothing to show worth here would be some room for rent; but when we can proceed, and perhaps better, prothe soil than any other its size in the state, there can for excuse. It simply thousands of dollars going into counties that would in all have come here if a presentation had been made products at the fair, and literature distributed as it was by near-county in the state.
And very well to "blow our ears around home and say what you do, but much better to go home and blow our horn up what we say by show-real article. Orange county of good men to do they could only be enthused more and help boost this litter by the sea. When we exhibits as was shown at Alameda county of her from Kern and Tulare, alan Diego of her dried fruit, of luscious ralsins, etc., and so Sacramento in the north,
Vancouver is certainly a go-ahead city and if our American cities on the coast don't look to their laurels they will have to step down and take second place to our Canadian friends. Within the last 8 years she has increased her population over 60,000,the last census giving her over 100,000 inhabitants. Everybody is boosting the place, even young ladies having the fever, and are buying and selling real estate. The city is spreading her borders on every side, and over the Fraser river on the Lulu Island I saw the heaviest crops of grain and hay seen anywhere. Building is going on everywhere, more railroads are coming in. No less than four lines, the C.P.R., the G.T.P., the G.N. and N.P. all have a foothold to share in the profits of her resources of lumbering, fisheries, fruit, grain, etc. I had the pleasure of seeing the Fraser river salmon fishing fleet, bringing in to the canneries the harvest of this noted river (for everyone has eaten Fraser-river salmon), and also saw the salmon put through the whole process of canning at the Imperial cannery, one of the largest on the coast. Everything about the cannery is kept scrupulously clean and it was very interesting to watch the way the fish were cut up, washed, cooked and put in cans. The output of this cannery is 30,000 cases a day, employing 400 hands and 175 fishing boats. There are about 30 canneries at this place, called Steveston. The electric cars run out to it from Vancouver.
A large sugar refinery is in operation in Vancouver, also a factory where wood for block paving for the streets is cut up and filled with creosote by a peculiar process, making them more lasting and better when filled in with tar than any other kind of material for streets.
Next week will give my experience at Seattle and the fair. Yours,

HUNTINGTON CHECKMATE
Ripley Prepares to Build Road Up Through Placentia
The recent visit of President Ripley of the Santa Fe to Fullerton and Placentia, during which time the incursion of Henry E. Huntington into his territory was pointed out to him, resulted this week in placing a force of surveyors in the field running a line for a cut-off between Fullerton and Richfield, a distance of 6 miles. It is stated on authority that building operations will begin immediately, and that the road will be in operation for hauling next season's orange crop.
The La Habra electric line has cut into Santa Fe receipts, and threatened to do so even more when extended to the Placentia field. Ripley saw this, and the new line will mean the retention by him of the bulk of the Placentia shipments.
A station will be established at Placentia and that district's shipments handled in future from that point. The station will undoubtedly be one of the most important on the Santa Fe line.
Huntington is planning to continue his electric line eastward from Brea Canyon and will undoubtedly eventually continue up the river canyon into Corona and Riverside. When this is done, a cross-country line will be constructed from Yorba through this section to the ocean.
It is a pretty fight these two giants of the railway world are engaging in in this neighborhood.
