ENLARGED COUNTY EVENT OF NEAR FUTURE
LONG BEACH WISHES TO BE ANNEXED TO US
Consolidation of Los Angeles City and County Will Throw Off a Populous Section, Including Whittler and Beach City, Which Is Anxious to Join Hands With Gem County—Inclusion Will Mean Many Changes in Political and Commercial Life of County—Increased Prosperity
The Gazette this morning presents the chamber of commerce with a subject which should engage its earnest attention—it being nothing less than the inclusion of Long Beach and Whittler in Orange county. When this county was cut off from Los Angeles county twenty-one years ago, the dividing line was tentatively placed at New river, but was later placed at Coyote creek. This was done, of course, to advance the interests of Santa Ana, which was in the fight will be drawn by the next legislature, and among persons well informed politically there exists little doubt that the five southern counties—Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Imperial—will form the Seventh congressional district.
Orange county is now in the Thirty-ninth senatorial district with Riverside county. Each county alternates in naming the senator every four years. It will be seen that the future is rich with promise to the political as well as commercial interests of this section.
The chamber of commerce should get busy with this new subject. Let us get better acquainted with Long Beach, Whittler and the other towns in the strip to be set off by Los Angeles. They always did look pretty good to us.
SLAUGHTERED THE INNOCENTS
While the Spectators Looked On and Wildly Applauded
Millmen, No. 884, of Los Angeles, is the name of the team which opened the baseball season with the home team on the local diamond Sunday afternoon. It is a goodly nine, with a fair reputation in amateur baseball.
The Gazette this morning presents the chamber of commerce with a subject which should engage its earnest attention—it being nothing less than the inclusion of Long Beach and Whittier in Orange county. When this county was cut off from Los Angeles county twenty-one years ago, the dividing line was tentatively placed at New river, but was later placed at Coyote creek. This was done, of course, to advance the interests of Santa Ana, which was in the fight more to secure the county seat of the new county than for the amelioration of any civic ills under which it ostensibly labored while a part of Los Angeles county. The change in the line of division cost Anaheim, which was also an aspirant for county-seat honors, many votes, for the citizens north of Coyote creek favored this city to Santa Ana as the county capital. Therefore Santa Ana, which was boosting county division, helped itself to the big piece of political pie by so placing the dividing line as practically to give it a cinch on the county seat.
Now this section asks to be annexed to Orange county. The citizens of Orange county should welcome them with open arms, irrespective of any effect their inclusion may have upon any future county-seat contention. The inclusion of this strip of territory would probably double the population of this county, all of it now beyond its northern boundary line. The proposition appeals to us favorably. It is commended to the august consideration of the chamber of commerce.
In another column of this issue will be found an interesting article from the Long Beach Telegram in reference to a desire upon the part of the people of that city for annexation to Orange county, which it seems they prefer rather to being included in the city and county government now under consideration by Los Angeles. We have hitherto referred to the fact that Whittler and the strip of country lying this side of New river has expressed willingness to come into Orange county, rather than becoming a part of the consolidated city and county government of Los Angeles, and it is entirely probable Los Angeles will make no objection to such procedure, as its southern boundary line will extend only to New river. We have also been informed that this boundary line may not extend beyond Old river, in which event there will be ten miles more of territory to be added to this
SLAUGHTERED THE INNOCENTS
While the Spectators Looked On and Wildly Applauded
Millmen, No. 884, of Los Angeles, is the name of the team which opened the baseball season with the home team on the local diamond Sunday afternoon. It is a goodly nine, with a fair reputation in amateur baseball circles, but was so hopelessly outclassed that the game degenerated into a farce, and the spectators would have lost interest if the locals had not stopped work and begun playing horse the last two or three innings. Twenty-three to 4 was the score and it might as well have been twice 23 to nothing.
Huntington was not up to his usual mark but the visitors secured only eight scatter hits off his delivery, while Ananeimers knocked one pitcher out of the box and crippled another, making 23 hits.
Fayette Lewis was the bright particular star of the game, both in the field and with the stick, making himself so obnoxious to the visitors that their captain complained that he did not expect to run up against professional when he booked the game. Lewis landed a three-bagger and two beautiful two-baggers, in five times at the plate.
After the seventh inning the boys began playing horse, each batter making a break for the home plate via first base, stopping only when beaded off by the ball and put out. Huntington also caught the spirit and tossed the balls over the home plate in ante-over fashion, which resulted in some beautiful flies being corralled in the outfield, but no runs.
Next Sunday a team, able to put up an interesting game, is promised.
Carpenter and Valencia, two of the last season's favorites, have again signed up and will be in the game.
KNIFE-WIELDER OUT OF JAIL
District Attorney's Office Fails to Uphold Township Justice
Justice Howard has permitted himself to run away with the idea that he knew something about law, but Deputy District Attorney Finley made him believe on Friday, in the superior court at Santa Ana, that the mysteries of the statutes are as yet a sealed book to him. It all came about in the discharge of Tiofflie Bedford from a discharged prison.

New river has expressed willingness to come into Orange county, rather than becoming a part of the consolidated city and county government of Los Angeles, and it is entirely probable Los Angeles will make no objection to such procedure, as its southern boundary line will extend only to New river. We have also been informed that this boundary line may not extend beyond Old river, in which event there will be ten miles more of territory to be added to this county. Either that course will be pursued or a new county will be formed. In this connection we must not lose sight of Pomona, which will probably not be included in the consolidated city and county, and will undoubtedly ask for a new county, as it did in the legislature four years ago. Whittier will strenuously oppose inclusion in the new Pomona county, as it stated its position clearly four years ago, and will prefer annexation to Orange county.
These are matters of paramount political importance to this county, and if Long Beach, Whittier and the strip lying this side New river shall be annexed, Orange county will increase its population thereby by 50,000. This will make a great change in the political subdivisions hereabout. It will entitle us to two assemblymen and one state senator, and will make this county the dominant factor in this congressional district.
This year's general election will undoubtedly show that the five southern counties have sufficient population to be erected into a congressional district. With the addition of Long Beach and Whittier, the strength of these counties will be more than sufficient to entitle us to a congressman. In that event Kern county will inevitably be placed in an up-county district, and with it will go the three coast counties of Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. The new congressional district lines
District Attorney's Office Fails to Uphold Township Justice
Justice Howard has permitted himself to run away with the idea that he knew something about law but Deputy District Attorney Finley made him believe on Friday, in the superior court at Santa Ana, that the mysteries of the statutes are as yet a sealed book to him. It all came about in the discharge of Tlofille Rodriguez from a ninety-day sentence in the county jail. Howard sent him up a month ago for making a demonstration with a knife in close proximity to the vitals of Foreman Jones of the paving squad. The Mexican was drunk, and is said to have had a record as a knife flourisher. Jones ordered him away, when Rodriguez, knife in hand, made a descent upon him, with the evident intention of carving him in the latest style of the art.
Marshal Simpson was telephoned for and placed the Mexican under arrest, taking his knife away from him. Simpson had to drag the Mexican a block before the latter would condescend to walk.
On Friday Howard Bell brought her beas corpus proceedings in the superior court for the Mexican's release. He charged irregularities in the commitment, and stated the trial in the Justice's court was held on a legal holiday. Justice Howard was present in court to disprove these charges, but when Deputy District Attorney Finley was called upon to proceed with the case he replied he was not prepared to do so, having had no time in which to look the matter up. Finley made no objection to Bell's motion for the Mexican's discharge from custody, and Judge Behy of Inyo county, sitting for Judge West, ordered the man out of custody.
Judge Howard is trying to find out how Finley figured it.

Next Step Necessary to Free Mail Delivery
Postmaster Duckworth on Saturday received blue print maps of the city prepared by City Surveyor Steward and took them to Los Angeles for submission to Postoffice Inspector Knox. The maps were approved by Knox and immediately forwarded to Washington, along with other data, which it is believed will result in giving the city free mail delivery at an early date.
Mr. Duckworth yesterday stated it will be necessary for patrons of the office to procure mail boxes, the cost of which, he said, would probably be 35 cents. These boxes are to be conveniently placed so that carriers will lose no time in making their distributions of mail.
Numbering houses in town continues, and the work will probably be completed this week.
The matter of free delivery is now before the Postoffice department at Washington, and will the arrival of the blueprint maps and other data, the subject will be left in its hands. Inasmuch as all the requirements have been complied with, it is believed orders will issue in the near future establishing the service.

The newly elected officers hold until December, having been chosen to fill terms of officers promoted.The Engineer Egge left on Saturday for Lyons, N.Y., where he will dismantle the Warner sugar factory located at that point, and will ship the machinery here for use in the erection of the Anaheim sugar factory. Only the best parts of the machinery will be forwarded, and such other parts of the local factory as are necessary will be purchased in the east. He will be absent several weeks, and on his return will be accompanied by a force of expert mechanics who will go immediately to work erecting the machinery in the factory buildings.
It is expected that work upon the Santa Fe spur tracks into the factory grounds will begin at an early date, and be completed in time to handle the first shipment of machinery, which will arrive early next month.
Mr. Hadsell continues to sign beet acreage, and has now under contract close upon 6000 acres. He states the factory will handle 600 tons of beets daily the first week of operation,and that thereafter 700 tons will be sliced daily. The factory will be built so that the second year its capacity may be increased to 1200 tons daily.
In some of the European countries where sugar beets are raised, the leaves quite frequently are used for fertilizer and also as food for livestock. Beet leaves when left lying on the ground in heaps in the sugar beet field at the time of pulling them will rot easily and thereby permitting the fertilizing material to drain out rapidly from them. When large quantities of beet leaves have lain in the field and have been plowed down there appeared a noticeable growth of crops the succeeding year. Particularly of barley and fodder corn. These crops grow tall, appear healthy and have a deep green color. Beet leaves are reasonably rich in nitrates and also contain some valuable salts for fertilizing.
Sugar beet leaves plucked later in the season and when mature serve the purpose as a food for livestock better than when plucked too early. Some farmers have a habit of plucking off the sound lower leaves, and feeding those to livestock, but this practice almost invariably diminishes the crop. Investigations have proved that the amount of sugar in beet roots varies in a measure with the development of the leaf surface of the plant. However, beet leaves may be saved as enslage at the time of harvesting them. Beet leaves are a good food for cattle and hogs, and especially will they be found valuable if the fodder is mixed with more concentrated foods and judicious us-
YOUNG FOLKS PARTY
The S. P. C. class of the First M.E. church was entertained at the home of Misses Fannie and Marie Schneider last Friday evening. After a short business meeting a musical and literary programme was enjoyed. Miss Helena Goodale gave several fine selections on her violin, accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Goodale. The recitation of Miss Gladys Gervais brought a smile to everyone. Misses Fannie and Marie Schneider gave a piano duet. Refreshments were served and games played until a late hour and when all went home happy after having spent an enjoyable evening.
F. S. Hoyt, the Los Angeles mechanic who is building an airship in which Sam Kraemer and other gentlemen of Placentia are financially interested, informed Mr. Kraemer on the latter's visit to his workshop last week that he intends to fly to Placentia, Fullerton and Anaheim the latter part of the month. He says he will also fly across the channel to Catalina in quest of the $5000 prize offered by the Bannings to the first man making the trip. Hoyt says he will be able to fly to Chicago in two days and six hours, and Sam thinks he will make a bit of a pasear in the air with him before he goes.
WILL INCREASE CAPITAL STOCK
The German-American bank gives notice in another column that a meeting of its stockholders will be held on November 24 for the purpose of voting upon the increase of its capital stock from $30,000 to $50,000. This step is necessary in order to comply with the provisions of the Bank Act. The German-American bank is in flourishing financial condition, and its increased capital stock will enable it to enter more largely into the transactions of the commercial world hereabout.
DEATH OF MRS. HORR
Mrs. Kate Power Horr, wife of George V. Horr, formerly of this city, died at her home in Los Angeles on the 12th of a complication of ills due to kidney disease. She had been treated by a Christian science healer, and when a regular physician was called on, she was beyond the possibility of recovery. Mrs. Horr was during her residence here a teacher in the public schools, and she has many friends here who will hear of her death with regret. She was aged 51 years. Her husband survives her.
Investigations have proved that the amount of sugar in beet roots varies in a measure with the development of the leaf surface of the plant. However, beet leaves may be saved as ensilage at the time of harvesting them. Beet leaves are a good food for cattle and hogs, and especially will they be found valuable if the fodder is mixed with more concentrated foods and judiciously used in all stages of feeding.
American Beet Sugar Industry Growing Rapidly
The Oxnard (Cal.) Courier of May 20th, contains an article dealing with American commercial progressiveness in general and in the beet sugar industry in particular. The article is of rather more than local interest and for that reason is reproduced herewith:
That the beet sugar industry has developed in the United States and has come to stay seems now to be about as certainly assured as is the permanence of any other of our great American industries. Europeans are naturally conservative, the result of their long experience under conditions that never warranted the aggressiveness of the modern American Yankee world, where margins of possible profit have always been wider than in more conservative Europe. With us, our venturesome men have taken the initiative in thousands of industrial lines, many of which have failed and most of which would have been looked upon with disfavor in any more conservative country and some of which have here finally resulted in brilliant successes and in the general betterment of the entire industrial world.
We are led to these reflections based upon the fact that in the United States the beet sugar industry is practically a very recent one and now within less than four decades from

H. Dyer, at Alameda, Cal., the beet sugar industry has attained proportions exceeding the cane sugar industry of the Gulf states, where the sugar cane has flourished for more than a century.
Now, every feature of the beet sugar industry from the preparation of the land, the planting of the seed, the weeding of the beets, their transportation to the railways and beet sugar factories and their manufacture in to sugar are all being carefully studied and mechanical devices are being invented and applied to each process to cheapen the cost or to make it easier, or to reduce the call the industry is now making upon human labor.
With the gradual application of machine work to every process incident to the production of beet sugars the open competition in the markets of the world of American beet sugar with that produced in Europe now seems probable at no very remote date.
