GOOD ROADS COMMENT Commission Has Spent Months Cutting Out Roads and Bridges in the North End of County—Adding Them to South End—Must. Be a Readjustment By A. A. MILLS For the second time the report of the county highway commission has been returned to it at the request of the commission. Unless the commission intends to put the report on a reasonable basis they may as well file it indefinitely. In this end of the county forbearance has long since ceased to be a virtue, and any further temporizing would be asinine. HUMBUGGED That we may know just how we have been squeezed out of our own it may be well to go over the matter from the beginning of the good roads movement. Our misfortunes began with the resignation of our commissioner, and the appointment of a man in the extreme south end of the county. Then there was a meeting with the commission, and roads to be improved were suggested comprising 143.54 miles, of which 74.40 miles were in the two north supervisor districts and 69.14 in the two south districts. Of four bridges over the Santa Ana river, three were in the north districts and one in the south. At one fell swoop the commission cut out pavement for 12 miles of road in the Santa Ana canyon, and cut out altogether the Yoronto area. ANOTHER DEFEAT Santa Ana Takes Sunday’s Game by An 8 to 6 Score In a ten inning game, punctured with errors, the Santa Ana baseball team defeated Anaheim on the local diamond on Sunday afternoon. For six innings the locals held the visitors down to six goose eggs and two hits, while six runs were chalked up on their side of the score board, but in the seventh the locals blew up and allowed the visitors to make five runs. Fairburn, Anaheim’s new catcher, was so badly rattled by the ungallant treatment of the fans that he turned his job over to Fritz Schneider after the seventh inning and went into center field. Fritz did splendid work behind the bat, and Mensenkamp allowed but one hit in the next two innings, but the spirit of the locals had been broken by the errors and the heartless treatment of the fans, who appeared anxious to hand the game to the visitors accompanied by a bouquet. Dubois, the Santa Ana pitcher, was a puzzler. He struck out fifteen men and permitted but three hits, all of which were made by Eddie Goddard. Mensenkamp struck out five men and allowed eight hits. Captain Lewis and Joe Henricks were both out of the game, Lewis being in Los Angeles and Henricks on the sick list. Valencia, the old-time shortstop, covered the first bag, and Fisher played short, with Huntington on second. Goddard, Schneider and Wisser were in the gardens. The line up was good and the game up to the PROTECTION DISTRICT BONDS Of the bond issue of $185,000 of the Newbert protection district all have been sold but $55,870.

Smith, twenty-seven; C. E. French, ten. Attorney Keech reported that Bishop had put through a bill putting the district bonds on the accredited list, and the bill is now up to the governor for his signature. This being the case, the district withdrew its offer of one-half of one per cent brokerage fee for the disposal of bonds, for it is now thought there will be no trouble disposing of the remaining bonds. FATE Washington, April 8.—The famous old sailing vessel, Portsmouth, a naval hero of the war between the United States and Mexico, will be delivered to the public health and marine hospital service for use as a station ship at Norfolk, according to the present intention of the navy department. The state of California desired the Portsmouth for preservation as a relic. It was this old ship that hoisted the Stars and Stripes at Yerba Buena, now San Francisco, during the Mexican war. A board appointed to examine the Portsmouth has reported that it would cost about $25,000 to place her in condition to make the trip from New York to San Francisco, and only $1120 to make her serviceable for a quarantine station ship.

Fred Kelly of Orange, winner of the individual trophy at the Stanford meet on Saturday, the 8th, King of Fullerton, Tedford of Santa Ana, the Livernashes of Huntington Beach and Tipton and Beebe of the local school, are all men from whom much can be expected.

Gilman, a fruit buyer of Orange, may be solvent, though he believes his liabilities foot $8642 and his assets $2905. The reason he may be solvent is that about twenty orange growers, who are listed by Gilman as creditors, may refuse to look to Gilman for pay, but will demand pay of Edmund Peycke company of Los Angeles, for whom Gilman bought about sixty-five carloads of oranges. The orange growers have retained attorneys.

The retained attorness STORY ABOUT SAIZ Said to Have Killed Another Hombre in Lower California San Diego, April 9.—"Viva Madero" shouted Juan Gonzales, a drunken sailor from the schooner Jennie Thelin on the street at Ensenada, last Tuesday. "Shout that again and I will kill you," answered back Rosario Salz, fugitive outlaw, employed to preserve the peace of Ensenada. The shout was repeated. Salz fired his rifle, but missed. "Viva Madero, you missed that time," again shouted Gonzales. Angered by the taunt Salz again fired and Gonzales fell dead with a bullet hole through his heart. The tragedy was witnessed by a number of Americans, one of whom is Thomas Kerr of Los Angeles, owner of the San Marlos ranch, who came up on the steamer this morning. The killing adds another deadly episode to the long list of tragedies connected with the old Jennie Thelin. The schooner left San Diego a few weeks ago, since when she has been in the neighborhood of Ensenada. The killing of Gonzales adds another victim to the aim of Salz, who is wanted at Santa Ana for jail breaking. Americans at Ensenada state since escaping the clutches of the Santa Ana sheriff Salz has grown a long beard and that the American officers would hardly recognize him. He was not molested by the Mexican federal authorities for killing the sailor. Gonzales sailed with the Thelin from this port. "My father has a new kind of typewriter—the fills it with ink." "My father has the kind you fill up with wine." "Viva Madero, you missed that time," again shouted Gonzales. Angered by the taunt Saiz again fired and Gonzales fell dead with a bullet hole through his heart. The tragedy was witnessed by a number of Americans, one of whom is Thomas Kerr of Los Angeles, owner of the San Marlos ranch, who came up on the "The New Standard Cutter Bar" The Other Kind Do you suppose a bar made like this can run without friction? It is the Lightest Draft Because The Compensating Lever and Suspension Spring enable the use of the curved cutter bar (straight when lowered) which forms a frictionless channel for the knife. In this construction the Bar floats over the ground instead of being pulled or pushed as in all other mowers. Heavy draft and side draft are avoided. IT IS THE MOST POWERFUL CUTTER, BECAUSE the entire weight of the Cutter Bar, when cutting, is transferred through the compensating lever and suspension spring to the main drive wheels, thus securing additional traction when most needed. It Is Made to Cut—Always and Easily Your request will bring full information promptly. Newell Mathews Company (Established 1896) LOS ANGELES - CALIFORNIA Beebe-Weisel Co.
