HAS THE LARGEST CIRCULATION
MULLER ON SEWER FARM
Presents Views Why It Should Not Be Located at Gilbert Ranch
Anaheim, Cal., May 16, 1911.
Editor Gazette: This letter is from the camp of the defenders—the incorporators of the City of Stanton. It is to clear up some misconceptions, annihilate some inventions, and state our case as the facts present themselves.
It is proposed by the City of Anaheim to establish and maintain a sewer farm in our midst for our years of patronage.
We live in a prosperous, progressive and delightful section of Orange county. There is none fairer between the foothills and the sea. The easterner and the westerner have located among us, setting their orchards, sowing their fields, improving their places. This is the ideal clime of the nut and the vine, the favored section of the Valencia. Our homes are daily fanned by the west windds fresh from the foaming billows. The location of our homes we appreciate, geles has grounds near Alhambra or Covina where the garbage is fed to hogs. This has so incensed the residents of that section that they have appealed to the Board of Health. What assurance have we that the Gilbert farm will not be used for that purpose? Those who are opposed to incorporating would never move from out an incorporation to live near a sewer farm. The trivial objections of the former are inconsequential to the incalculable damage that would be inflicted by the latter.
Thus we have decided not to take something that no one else wants. Figuratively speaking, we have barricaded our boundaries, dug up all the old rake teeth, pruning hooks and plow shares and beat them into swords and say "Not Yet."
E. K. MULLER.
DEATH OF F. A. GATES
Well-Known Pioneer Passes to Long Rest
Francis Alden Gates was born in Groton, Mass., July 27, 1836, and died at Anaheim, Cal., May 17, 1911. His childhood was spent in Charlestown, Mass., and Harford, Penn. At seventeen he removed to Chicago, where he resided during the Civil War, and was a member of the Home Guard. On June 28, 1858, he was married to Sarah Adelaide Fitch. At the time of the building of the first transcontinental railway he removed to Cheyenne, where he engaged in the hotel business. In 1870 he came to Anaheim, and passed the remainder of his life here and on his ranch at Garden Grove.
Of a genial friendly disposition he had many friends, especially among
We live in a prosperous, progressive and delightful section of Orange county. There is none fairer between the foothills and the sea. The easterner and the westerner have located among us, setting their orchards, sowing their fields, improving their places. This is the ideal clime of the nut and the vine, the favored section of the Valencia. Our homes are daily fanned by the west windds fresh from the foaming billows. The location of our homes we appreciate, we love, WE WILL DEFEND.
The presence of a sewer farm we will not tolerate it if it can be kept out, and we have decided that it can.
We have been told that it would be a good thing for us, but we are not soliciting such a good thing. Anaheim will have no trouble getting rid of a good thing. We have visited several sewer farms out of curiosity. The real successful septic tank and sewer farm we have failed to find. The ones we found are failures and evidences of the unsolved problem. A visit to the Santa Ana septic tank and farm will convince any one that it will either not work or its managers are guilty of negligence. If a sewer farm were to be located on the Gilbert farm, we have no assurance that it will work, or that it will be properly managed.
The siren song of a sweet 95 per cent pure sewer farm does not sound good to us. If it is so pure as all that, the sewage would make a poor fertilizer. It would be good to boil barley in and bottle for trade.
We need no further proof to show that a sewer farm is a nuisance. We have decided to incorporate. It will then be up to the promoters of the farm to prove that it is not a nuisance. Since we will have incorporated we will make the best of it. Through our improvement association and board of trustees, the people of the new city will manage their own affairs and municipal government. We are a peaceful people; we will never need a jail. Our ordinances, just and simple, may be just as legally framed in a gum grove as in a marble hall.
We have been told that the septic tank and farm could be established here regardless of our incorporation, and that an opinion had been rendered from good authority to that effect. We have never seen such over anyone's signature. But we have opinions in writing from reliable sources that it cannot be established within the exterior boundaries of our incorporation.

At the time of the building of the first transcontinental railway he removed to Cheyenne, where he engaged in the hotel business. In 1870 he came to Anaheim, and passed the remainder of his life here and on his ranch at Garden Grove.
Of a genial friendly disposition he had many friends, especially among the old soldiers who always called him Comrade Gates.
Mr. Gates is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Eunice Spicer of Long Beach, and Mrs. Mamie Webster of Harvard, Neb. Also by three children, Frank S. Gates of this city, James Loring Gates of Acton, Cal., and Mrs. Clara Huff of Long Beach.
The Presbyterian Christian Endeavor society elected George Ross, Mrs. L. E. Miller, Howard Gates and Mrs. Dell Lemon as delegates to the state convention, to be held at Santa Ana in June.
When You Don't Amount to Much
The world to you will sometimes seem as though 'twere upside down,
At such times you will rarely smile—much oftener you frown;
Nothing seems to go just right, and you begin to think you don't amount to much,
With lagging steps, when night comes,
you homeward wend your way
In search of relaxation from a hard and trying day;
You are greeted by your wife with smiling face
You are sensible of newness—something fresh about the place.
The parlor and sitting room, which open into one
Have all been newly finished — with CHI-NAMEL it was done;
And so from the home brightness you take on courage new,
You thank your stars you are living, and you don't feel quite so blue.
YOURS TRULY,
CHI-NAMEL

We have been told that the septic tank and farm could be established here regardless of our incorporation, and that an opinion had been rendered from good authority to that effect. We have never seen such over anyone's signature. But we have opinions in writing from reliable sources that it cannot be established within the exterior boundaries of our incorporation.
We have verbal reports from unreliable sources that we would lose our rural delivery if we incorporated. We have a written statement from absolute authority that it will not affect it.
We have been told that we would lose several miles of state roads by incorporating when not even a preliminary survey has been made in Orange county. So far as county roads are concerned, the bonds have never been voted—we do not know that the election would carry.
We have been confronted with ridiculous statements to the effect that our taxes will be doubled, when there is no necessity for any increase at all.
The salary of a city clerk, and occasionally a little legal advice are the only expenses that cannot be avoided. The expense connected with maintaining an incorporation will be very small compared with the loss in health and realty value incurred by the maintenance of a sewer farm in the heart of our valuable section. When the facts are fully presented and known we will have no trouble in proving the necessity of incorporating.
Incorporation is our only alternative for protection against the possibility of other incorporated cities making their dumping grounds here. Los An-

PLACENTIA TOWNSITE
The first step on the road to wealth is taken when we lay by a little every month, namely, when we begin to save.
The second—is when our savings begin to work for us, namely, to double and treble themselves through good investment.
There is no investment so safe and sure as well selected land; and certainly a new town located where it must receive the business of a prosperous community is the logical location to place savings, that they may be doing their share by receiving a portion of the advance sure to come with the growth of the town.
PLACENTIA TOWNSITE
Offers conditions seldom if ever found; presenting the homeseeker and investor alike, with the opportunity of obtaining a lot in a new town at new town prices yet having a thoroughly developed tributary country, to care for whose business must cause the town a rapid and substantial growth.
