Hopkins, professor of agronomy in the university of Illinois, chief in agronomy and chemistry and vice director of the Illinois agricultural experiment station; and Dr. F. H. King, formerly professor of agricultural physics in the university of Wisconsin, will lecture on soil chemistry, rational fertilization, plant foods, irrigation, soil water, soil physics and tillage. In addition to the above courses of lectures will be given by professors from the university of California. Professor J. H. Norton of the citrus experiment station will lecture on the work being done at Riverside. Dr. C. B. Lipman of Berkeley, will lecture on soil bacteriology. Lectures and discussions are free to all.

Discussions.—Ample time will be taken after each lecture for discussion It should be borne in mind, however, that neither the experiment station nor the visiting scientists can solve every man's problems. The object of the convention is rather to bring before the growers the latest achievable The case of J. C. Thomas vs. County Treasurer J. C. Joplin, et al, has been transferred from the Supreme Court of the state to the Second District Appellate Court which sits in Los Angeles, news to that effect having reached the attorneys for the defendants some days ago from the clerk of the supreme court at San Francisco. The case was one in which suit for injunction was brought to prevent County Treasurer Joplin from paying the salary warrants of certain county deputies, and E. E. Keech was associated with District Attorney Davis in bringing the action. The case was decided in favor of the deputies by Judge Willis of Los Angeles, sitting for Judge West, after careful examination of the law and the facts. Following the decision of Judge Willis, an appeal was taken and the case carried straight to the supreme court, and the news that it has now been sent back to the appellate court seems to foreshadow its settlement in favor of the deputies, as this is the same court which heard the case of Newman vs. Lester, a similar case, and decided in favor of the payment of the salaries to deputies. The deputies have been paid right along, with the exception of Deputy District Attorney Finley, who has been prevented by District Attorney Davis from taking his salary until now several hundred dollars have piled up in the hands of the county auditor. The right of the deputies to draw salary for work performed is claimed by them to be given by an amendment to the county government introduced in the last legislature by Assemblyman Melrose, and adopted March, 1909. No watch is too difficult to be repaired at Hartfield's. BOOSTING HIGH TAXES Asking People of State to Pay Fair Expenses The character of literature sent out by the boosters of San Francisco's exposition in 1915 is indicated by the subjoined letter to The Gazette. It is taken from a mass of correspondence with which we have been favored for some weeks past. If this direct tax shall carry at the polls in November, Orange county's portion, as is shown in another column, will be $67,000. Do the taxpayers of Orange county desire this to burden themselves? We think not. The fair boosters request us to give publicity to the letter, which we do in order to show the character of the arguments put forward in behalf of this great indebtedness. Here it is: "San Francisco, Sept. 27. By James N. Gillett: "This furnishes the state with an opportunity to provide the needed sinews of war in the fight against New Orleans for a great and valuable prize. I am firmly of the belief that the people of California and the citizens of San Francisco will take advantage of the situation and settle finally the proprietorship of the exposition by voting the $10,000,000 asked. With this addition to the splendid nucleus San Francisco has furnished we may go to Washington at the opening of the session in December and offer the government of the United States a pledge to expend $17,500,000, which is ample to warrant further investment to any amount, however great." By Hiram Johnson: tax calls for a levy of $1,250,000 per year only, which will, in the course of four years, bring the amount up to the $5,000,000 required. This will mean, according to members of the state board of equalization, a levy of about 4 cents on the hundred—a sum that no taxpayer, however great or small, will feel. A great achievement indeed will result from so infinitesimal an outlay. "The amendment permitting San Francisco to so amend her charter as to be able to bond herself for $5,000,-000 is something that, in its financial aspects, concerns only the citizens of the metropolis. With the $5,000,000 furnished by the state and the equal amount raised by San Francisco the total exposition fund, adding the subscriptions paid in by San Francisco citizens, will be $17,500,000. "By the provisions of the state tax amendment California will receive her pro rata of profits from the fair, sharing equally with all other stockholders. The state, however, will have no stockholder's liability for loss. "The amendments were carefully framed that only justice might be done the people of the state, and no members of it receive more benefits than others. They mean a greatness to California that she never has had before. It is a patriotic duty for all Californians to vote for them, regardless of whether they reside north of Shasta, or south of Tehachapi. "Those amendments mean glory prominence and power to the West. Vote for them." Let voters of Orange county read, ponder and inwardly digest these statements, each for himself, and then LONG BEACH WOULD JOIN Seaside City Desires Annexation to Orange County Inquiry among the leading citizens of Long Beach discloses the fact that the queen of the beaches is seriously considering the proposition of coming into Orange county. The fight will be in the legislature. Los Angeles will have a bill introduced providing for the formation of a city and county government by a majority vote of the whole territory proposed to be so consolidated. This would enable the city of Los Angeles to gobble up Long Beach and Pasadena regardless of the wishes of those cities. Orange county will be appealed to for help in defeating such legislation. The Long Beach Press of Monday evening had a leading editorial headed, "Join Orange County," in which it said: "There is but one valid excuse for the agitation on the part of Los Angeles for a county and city government. "Perish the thought that it has anything to do with the good of Long Beach. For twenty years Los Angeles has hammered Long Beach, made sport of its whiskers, told her to get a hair cut. Meanwhile Long Beach has grown—grown to be the first coast city of Southern California. And of this growth Los Angeles is insanely jealous. The sole purpose of Los Angeles in the revived agitation for a dual government is taxation. Taxation that Los Angeles may spend every dollar taken from county AND CITY in Los Angeles county—that all vantage of the situation and settle finally the proprietorship of the exposition by voting the $10,000,000 asked. With this addition to the splendid nucleus San Francisco has furnished we may go to Washington at the opening of the session in December and offer the government of the United States a pledge to expend $17,500,000, which is ample to warrant further investment to any amount, however great. "By Hiram Johnson: "The Panama Pacific International Exposition, which must be secured for San Francisco in 1915, will be a benefit, not to San Francisco alone, but to the entire state of California. As such it should receive uniform support throughout the state, and I strongly urge this course on the part of the voters everywhere. "Unanimous action on the part of the voters of California will greatly assist in the efforts being made for federal recognition. It will demonstrate that we are undertaking the celebration of the big event with the real California spirit of doing big things in a big, whole-hearted fashion. "By Theodore A. Bell: "It is of vital interest to California that the Panama Pacific International Exposition be held in San Francisco in 1915. The state is in dead earnest in this, and I intend to preach it wherever I go. All we need is the official recognition of the federal government, and that we will get. There should not be a vote in California against the bond issue and the state tax. We should look ahead. No man can calculate the millions that will be spent in California by those who come from all parts of the globe to visit the exposition, nor can any man estimate the far greater permanent results that will follow this concrete evidence of national jubilee in the completion of the Panama canal. We must impress upon congress that we have the energy, the enthusiasm and the money to entertain the nations of the earth in America's name." "That the two amendments to the state constitution, passed at the recent special session of the legislature to aid in financing an International Exposition at San Francisco in 1915, should be carried all over the state by a unanimous vote is a declaration made in every address given by Theodore Bell, democratic candidate for governor, and Hiram Johnson, republican candidate for the same high of advantage of the situation and settle finally the proprietorship of the exposition by voting the $10,000,000 asked.

Both men declare that the exposition means a greater and broader life, an advance in progress that cannot be measured, for the state, and that the amendments providing for sufficient funds to secure the favor of congress, and carry on the exposition, must be ratified by the people if California, and not Louisiana, is to celebrate the completion of the Panama canal in 1915 for the American people. "James N. Gillett, California's governor at the present time, is as earnestly desirous of seeing the bonds carry as are the two men who will go before the people in November. Governor Gillett has declared that he is glad opportunity has given him the chance to end his term of office while he is championing a measure that means so much to his state. "All three of these men are advocating the amendments because, after a study of the language and intent of the two measures, they have become convinced that they mean the material prosperity and tremendously advanced prominence of California—a world prominence that will advertise the advantages of this state to all the nations of the earth, and result in bringing here a high class of homeseekers, both from this country and Europe. "It is pointed out that the state improved place near Harper station to Carl Laux of Los Angeles, price being $7000. Mr. Laux has already considerably improved the place since his purchase. J. R. Casteel has sold his 10 acre ranch near Brookshurst to Mrs. Mary E. Eskridge of Los Angeles, price $5500 cash. George A. Mitchell has sold to J. E. Rogers of Pasadena his 10 acre improved place east of Anaheim, consideration being $5000 cash. P. L. Wells has sold to C. A. Gales his 10 acre improved place near Garden Grove, consideration $6000.

Piano Studio North Lemon St.; phone Main 871. 9-1-tf Sacramento, Sept. 15. Education of the ground squirrel pest is to be the subject of a discussion at a meeting of the state board of health which will be held at the capitol in October. While in the east about ten days ago D. F. W. Snow, secretary of the board, interviewed authorities of the United States government and secured from them a promise of help against the pests. The government is to spend from $10,000 to $14,000 a month on the work and experts will be sent here to take charge of the campaign. Fear of possibility of an outbreak of the bubonic plague is the cause of the determination to get rid of the ground squirrels. When the plague was prevalent around San Francisco two years ago, it was communicated to squirrels in Alameda and Contra Costa counties by rats, and has never been thoroughly stamped out. A case of plague was reported from Coyote, Santa Clara county, recently. A young woman is the victim of the disease. This is the first case that has appeared for more than two years. Government officials are taking every precaution to prevent contagious and infectious diseases of all kinds from entering this country from abroad. Not only are ships from foreign parts placed in quarantine before allowing passengers to land, but secret service agents have been placed at the leading foreign ports to prevent the possibility of any infected persons embarking for this country. On the other hand, foreign countries are keeping just as close guard on the United States. If you suffer with headaches or nervousness, have your eyes examined at Hartfield's.
