Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. Has the Largest Circulation P. A. STANTON FOR GOVERNOR The candidacy of Hon. Philip A. Stanton for governor grows with each succeeding week, and his meeting with republican editors at the Jonathan club on Tuesday furnished indubitable proof, if any were lacking, of his standing with the moulders of public opinion in this portion of the state. Mr. Stanton proved a most agreeable host, and stated his position with clearness and exactitude upon the political issues now engulfing the attention of voters in California. Mr. Stanton promises a businessman's administration, untrammeled by any sinister corporate influence; and he is big enough and strong enough to carry out his ante-election pledges. He has already shown his independence of machine domination, and his committee appointments in the last assembly, while filling the responsible position of Speaker, were such as to appeal to the support of progressive republicans the state over. He stood for the direct primary, the well has he answered all calls placed upon him by the statutes. Mr. Williams is admittedly the most efficient and at the same time accommodating county clerk the county has ever had in its employ, and it has had able men in the office during the past twenty years. No one criticises his abilities, and that there should be anyone in the county but who would sing "Bry" Williams' praises is passing strange indeed. The single charge against him is, he votes the republican ticket straight, always wins what he goes after, in politics as well as business, and lays out his democratic opponent with such uniformity and precision that his political enemies are not in the running when the votes are counted after the cruel war is over. This may be discourteous conduct on his part, but he cannot help it; he is bound to abide by the decision of the voters, and from that there is no appeal. WHY THIS HASTE? Why is it necessary to bond Orange county for the construction of roads in advance of the state election next November? Let us figure this thing out a little. In November the State will vote upon an issue of $18,000,000 for state highways. If these bonds carry, Orange county will probably receive therefrom a sufficient sum to construct a paved highway from the Los Angeles county line above La Habra to the San Diego line 12 miles below San Juan. Approximately a distance of 50 miles, at from $8000 to $10,000 per mile, the reader may compute for MONEY LOANED TO Government Will Probably Large Sum Washington, Mar. 8.—treasurer of the United States being congress for legislation straighten out a tangled government got itself into in 1836, when, on the reefer of President Andrew Jackson money then in the federal excepting $5,000,000, waived among the several states of their representation. The states in the union day have long ago money loaned them out of treasury, and there is that congress will ask them turned. The interest ower of the United States grows out of the fact that pelled every year to cemens on his books, and tired of it, and thinks can to wipe out the debt and to balance the books. Andrew Jackson played the federal finances in than one. He not only loaned the loan of the federal several states, as has justified, but he waged against the Bank of the which is historic because terness and after effect rather strange that at congress should be asked technical notice of some thing. The amount of cases states then forming those of them which contend the conditions of the law 101,644.91, a tidy sum, Mr. Stanton promises a businessman's administration, untrammeled by any sinister corporate influence; and he is big enough and strong enough to carry out his ante-election pledges. He has already shown his independence of machine domination, and his committee appointments in the last assembly, while filling the responsible position of Speaker, were such as to appeal to the support of progressive republicans the state over. He stood for the direct primary, the anti-racetrack gambling bill, for reciprocal demurrage, and he proved a most active and uncompromising foe to all manner of pernicious irrigation legislation. The Black bill, had it become law, would have proved virtually confiscatory of vested water rights in Orange county and elsewhere throughout Southern California. Mr. Stanton placed the seal of his disapproval upon this measure, and acted in unison with Assemblyman Melrose, to whom the bill was referred for a personal examination, and together they saw to it that the iniquitous measure was killed in committee. It was introduced by one of San Francisco's push legislators, who probably never saw an irrigation canal in his life, and to this man the Speaker stated his unyielding opposition to the bill. Another bad irrigation bill was also killed by Mr. Stanton's opposition to it. His attitude throughout the legislature was one of courage and patriotism. His course in the anti-foreign imbroglio won for him the thanks of no less a patriot than Theodore Roosevelt, the greatest living American. Mr. Stanton is a property-owner and taxpayer of Orange county. He is frequently seen on the streets of Anaheim, and we take pleasure in endorsing him for the high office which he seeks. It is twelve years since Southern California has named a candidate for the governorship, and if we blindly follow northern politicians it will be twelve years more before we again have that honor. The southern counties furnished the majorities which saved Pardee and Gillett, each of them, from defeat, and it is time, in our humble opinion this great honor came south. It is easy in this day and generation for the lavenders in politics, with an itch for getting into office themselves, to cast aspersion upon the acts of men in public station, but Stanton has made good, and cannot be made the target for splenetic abuse. He takes orders from no one, and wears no man's collar. Let us figure this thing out a little. In November the State will vote upon an issue of $18,000,000 for state highways. If these bonds carry, Orange county will probably receive therefrom a sufficient sum to construct a paved highway from the Los Angeles county line above La Habra to the San Diego line 12 miles below San Juan. Approximately a distance of 50 miles, at from $8000 to $10,000 per mile, the reader may compute for himself the cost of this highway. If, on the other hand, Orange county votes bonds for roads, and includes in the report of the commissioners, this main artery of county travel, we shall not receive a penny of the state fund. In that event, Orange county will vote bonds for construction of its own roads, and at the same moment be taxed for the building of roads in other counties of the state. We are not opposed to this bonding scheme because of personal ill-will toward any member of the highway commission—on the contrary, quite the reverse. Mr. Chapman we esteem very highly. Will Mr. Chapman kindly tell us why it is considered necessary to rush this bond election, with a view to pulling it off before the state bond election? Why is it that Orange county is the only county in the state at present with a road-bond election before it? Are we so railroad ridden, that the crack of the boss's whip in the Pacific Electric building crackles and reverberates through the hills and dales of Orange county. We had supposed this county was reasonably free from this whip. Why is it the only county to do its bidding? Why is it necessary to vote these bonds now, Mr. Chapman? Why burden ourselves with road-bonds and then be taxed to build roads in other counties? Why imperil our portion of the state bond fund, if state bonds carry, by voting county bonds previous to the state election? FORCING THE ROAD BOND ISSUE The supervisors have acceded to the demand of the so-called associated chambers of commerce and have named highway commissioners to proceed to the work of bonding the county of Orange for the construction of paved roads. The men appointed upon the commission are three bankers, whose names were several states, as has just affirmed, but he waged an astonish the Bank of the City which is historic because terness and after effect rather strange that at congress should be asked a technical notice of some thing.

He takes orders from no one, and wears no man's collar. What's the matter with Stanton? He's all right. AN EFFICIENT PUBLIC SERVANT W. B. Williams announces his candidacy in our columns today for renomination to the office of county clerk, which he has filled with signal efficiency for one term. Mr. Williams spent his boyhood days at Villa Park, and comes of one of the oldest and most highly respected families in this county. By profession a lawyer, admitted to practice in all the courts of the state, he is by education and temperament well qualified to fill the exacting duties of his position. As custodian of the records of the superior court and board of supervisors, he has many times been complimented by members of the bar and by taxpayers for his careful handling of documents in the public archives, and he has the business of both these branches of the public service at his finger's ends. He issues marriage licenses with neatness and dispatch, exacting the usual fee in such cases made and provided, and when lowering clouds menace the tranquility of marital felicity, he enters complaints in divorce cases without fear or favor. His books are models of neatness, and his accounts are found each year by the grand jury to balance to a cent. These things are not written down to his credit, for the people expect them of him, and right FORCING THE ROAD BOND ISSUE The supervisors have acceded to the demand of the so-called associated chambers of commerce and have named highway commissioners to proceed to the work of bonding the county of Orange for the construction of paved roads. The men appointed upon the commission are three bankers, whose names were first suggested by Chairman MacMullan two months ago when he came forth with his spiel for bonds for roads and bridges. The associated chambers followed the cue, taking up the names of this triumverate of bankers, and made it known to the supervisors that if these gentlemen were named as highway commissioners, their cold-storage petitions would be forthwith presented to the board asking appointment of such commission. These petitions, it will be remembered, were in circulation last year, and were ready for presentation to the supervisors at the time of the pointed interview between the irasable Dr. Damocles Dobson and the performing Dr. Angostura MacMullan. Dr. Dobson, appearing before Dr MacMullan's august body last fall, adverted politely to the fact that the people of the county had such little confidence in the board that bonds for roads would meet inevitable defeat if the highway commission were selected without previous consultation with the associated chambers. Dr. MacMullan icily informed Dr. Dobson that he and his associates might go on their way rejoicing in hand baskets before the supervisors would thus truckle to the associated chambers. The story is a long one. Dr. Dobson felt the displeasure of his associates, and at one of their monthly big feeds he was decapitated as Pooh Bah in chief of the good roadsters and told to proceed to the rear and be seated. Another committee of good roadsters appeared on board asking surcease sorrows, but there was no matter rested on gostura, traveling up in hills, saw a very great hill on the mountain top.

Easter Egg Dyes at MONEY LOANED TO STATES Government Will Probably Recover Large Sums Washington, Mar. 8.—Lee McClung, treasurer of the United States, is asking congress for legislation that will straighten out a tangle which the government got itself into away back in 1836, when, on the recommendation of President Andrew Jackson, all the money then in the federal treasury, excepting $5,000,000, was apportioned among the several states, on the basis of their representation in congress. The states in the union at that early day have long ago spent the money loaned them out of the federal treasury, and there is now no sign that congress will ask that it be returned. The interest of the treasurer of the United States in the matter grows out of the fact that he is compelled every year to carry these items on his books, and he is getting tired of it, and thinks congress ought to wipe out the debt and permit him to balance the books. Andrew Jackson played havoc with the federal finances in more ways than one. He not only was back of the loan of the federal surplus to the several states, as has just been mentioned, but he waged a warfare against the Bank of the United States which is historic because of its bitterness and after effects. It seems rather strange that at this late day congress should be asked to take practical notice of some things he did. The amount of cash loaned the states then forming the union, or those of them which complied with the conditions of the loan, was $28,-101,644.91, a tidy sum, and if it were plus, leading, as it did, to reckless inflation in banking and commercial and industrial enterprises of all kinds. The government on numerous occasions since 1837 has been sadly in need of cash, and on those occasions the treasurer of the United States would have been prompt to call for the return of the loan; but congress in 1837, in providing for the abandonment of the distribution of the remaining one-fourth of the surplus,said that the three installments already paid out should remain on deposit with the states until otherwise ordered by congress. And since that time congress has seen fit to do nothing, suggesting that it wanted the money returned, and as stated above is not likely to do so in the future. For many years this money has been carried on the books of the treasurer of the United States as "unavailable funds," and he wants congress now to quit making a pretense to having the money and pass a law which will enable him to balance his books in a proper way. The correspondence from the treasury department with respect to this matter has been sent to Representative Tawney of Minnesota, chairman of the house committee on appropriations, where the desired legislation should properly originate. LAND BARONS NOT EXTINCT George W. Littlefield of Austin Controls Vast Territory Austin, Tex., March 8.—There are still a number of land and cattle barons in Texas. One of the wealthiest men of this class is George W. Littlefield of Austin. He recently made THE NOBLE RED MAN Proposed Indian Monument to Be Erected In New York Harbor A bill introduced in both houses of congress providing for a colossal statue of the North American Indian to be placed in New York harbor will be reported in the house on March 1. This measure was introduced by Representative Joseph A. Goulden and Senator Chauncey M. Depew of New York and provides that there shall be erected without expense to the United States government by Rodman Wanamaker of New York City and others, on a United States reservation in the harbor of New York, a memorial to the memory of the North American Indian. It is further provided that a commission consisting of the chairman of the committee on library of the senate, the chairman of the committee on library of the house, and the secretaries of state, war, navy, and interior, the attorney general and Robert C. Ogden of New York, shall be created with full authority to select the site in the harbor of New York and a suitable design, and to contract for and superintend the construction of the memorial. This bill is the result of a suggestion made by Rodman Wanamaker at a celebrated dinner given last May at Sherry's, New York, in honor of Col. Cody, the famous Indian scout. The idea of erecting a statue of an Indian, with arms outstretched, in welcome at the gateway of the New World met with such instant enthusiasm, that there is little doubt, but that the measure will meet with unanimous support. the loan of the federal surplus to the several states, as has just been mentioned, but he waged a warfare against the Bank of the United States which is historic because of its bitterness and after effects. It seems rather strange that at this late day congress should be askel to take practical notice of some things he did. The amount of cash loaned the states then forming the union, or those of them which complied with the conditions of the loan, was $28,101,644.91, a tidy sum, and if it were in the federal treasury today President Taft and congress would feel a good deal easier about money matters than they do. Three times in its history the federal government, while practically free from debt, has been brought face to face with a surplus in the treasury, but of course nothing of this kind has happened since the piling up of the great Civil war debt. There has been a treasury surplus many times since the civil war closed, but inasmuch as there was always a public debt outstanding the surplus caused no worry. But back in 1836 this was not the case. In that year the public debt was reduced to $37,773, this sum representing obligations which, though due, had not yet been presented for payment. A treasury surplus grew with astonishing rapidity, and in 1836 it was more than $40,000,000. Just what to do with this money nobody seemed to know. The question was debated for a long time in congress. President Jackson took a lively hand in it, as he did in everything else that came up, and finally congress passed a bill, which the president signed, providing for the distribution among the states of all but $5,000,000 of this fund, on agreement that the states execute bonds for the return of the money on demand of the secretary of the treasury. The sum to be divided was $37,-468,859, and it was to be paid in four equal installments, from January to October, 1837. The first three of the payments were made, when along came the panic of 1837, which caused the fourth payment to be abandoned. The panic is attributed, in a large part, to this distribution of the surplus roadsters appeared before the board asking surcease from their sorrows, but there was nothing doing. So—the matter rested until Dr. Angostura, traveling up in the Santiago hills, saw a very great light high up on the mountain top. It was the voice of the railroad boss commanding him to saddle bonds for roads upon Orhouse committee on appropriations, where the desired legislation should properly originate. LAND BARONS NOT EXTINCT George W. Littlefield of Austin Controls Vast Territory Austin, Tex., March 8.—There are still a number of land and cattle barons in Texas. One of the wealthiest men of this class is George W. Littlefield of Austin. He recently made three deals which brought him a total cash consideration of $326,000. These transactions were the sale of 33,000 acres of land in Menard county for $112,000 and 10,000 acres in the same part of the state for $50,000; also the sale of 4000 head of cattle for $164,000. Mr. Littlefield still owns 300,000 acres of land in one body in Hockley county. He was offered $3,000,000 for this land not long ago by a syndicate of northern men, who wanted to use it for colonization purposes. He refused to sell it at that price. He owns several hundred thousand acres of land in New Mexico, one of his ranches in that territory consisting of 150,000 acres in a solid body. Another one of his ranches is situated in Lubbock county, Tex., and embraces 75,000 acres. M. M. Crookshank of Santa Ana, C. C. Chapman of Placentia and W. H. Burnham of Orange, who last week were appointed highway commissioners by the supervisors, following the filing of the good roads petitions, have been sworn in by County Clerk Williams.

Spohr and the Violin. Louis Spohr, the greatest of all German violinists and a man whose name is otherwise indelibly written on the pages of musical history, was born at Brunswick on April 5, 1784. Just fifteen days after his great contemporary and rival, Nicolo Paganini, first saw the light of the world. Two greater contrasts than these two men could not be imagined. Paganini, the brilliant, dazzling, comet-like apparition, overawed the masses, for whose favor he made a high bid, while the German, the serious, dignified, deep artist, appealed to the connoisseurs and cultured musicians. Spohr both by precept and example exerted a tremendous influence on violin playing and violin composition and in fact on compositional art. This bill is the result of a suggestion made by Rodman Wanamaker at a celebrated dinner given last May at Sherry's, New York, in honor of Col. Cody, the famous Indian scout. The idea of erecting a statue of an Indian, with arms outstretched, in welcome at the gateway of the New World met with such instant enthusiasm, that there is little doubt,但 that the measure will meet with unanimous support. While the ways and means of providing money to finance the enterprise have not yet been decided upon, it is expected that the statue will be a National Monument to perpetuate the memory of the First American,and an opportunity will be given to every one who desires to contribute; it is estimated that one penny from every man woman and child in the United States will furnish ample means for its erection. Already various tribes of the Order of Red Men throughout the United States have taken steps to contribute their share to the general fund. It is planned that each of the five hundred thousand members of the Order of Red Men represented in the four thousand tribes in the United States shall contribute two cents each which would amount to $10,000. A pile of copper cents amounting to $10,000 is far more imposing than a single check for that amount donated by some one individual to whom it would mean so little. The idea of this statue originated with Rodman Wanamaker of Philadelphia during an expedition made by him in 1908, for the purpose of studying the Indian on his own ground. His first impulse was to present the statue to the country,但 the consensus of opinion is that it should be a national gift,and that every child in the country should be allowed to contribute one penny in memory of a race that is fast becoming extinct. The bill is backed by the entire New York delegation both in the house and in the senate,and is receiving the support of the President;enthe Vice President,and many prominent men in political and financial circles.Very valuable aid is being given to secure the passage of the bill by Senators Owen of Oklahoma,and Curtis of Kansas,and by Representative Carter of Oklahoma.all of whom trace their ancestry back to the noble Red Man of the Forest. SANTA ANA Perfecto Truillillo,a Los Angeles good roadsters appeared before the board asking surcease from their sorrows, but there was nothing doing. So the matter rested until Dr. Angostura, traveling up in the Santiago hills, saw a very great light high up on the mountain top. It was the voice of the railroad boss commanding him to saddle bonds for roads upon Orange county before the state election in November. Dr. Angostura belongs to the push, which will provide for him in his old age, when the winds of public disesteem set his pathway roundabout. He leans upon the staff of the push like the shepherd upon his crook. He knows his master. He heard his master's voice. He obeyed. His letter to "the people" followed. He had turned about from his former position. But "the floods" had made the situation "desperate," and "something must be done." It was. After fiddling about for weeks the board finally settled down to business, and the infamous child was born. Conceived by the railroad, and nurtured by the creature of the push, it was belched forth from Dr. Angostura's belly when nobody thought it was anything more than a case of appendicitis.
