GOOD ROADS COMMENT Stewart of Fullerton Dreams—Anderson Effervescent—Taxpayers will Reap What is Sown—Halladay says We Need No More Roads Than Allowed in This End of County—He Says Will Never Recommend Bridges Here BY A. A. MILLS Except as a side issue the county good roads were not in it at the meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce on Wednesday last. All was ocean boulevard. STEWART HAS PIPE DREAM A. I. Stewart of Fullerton gave the near information that the "ordinary taxpayer," all not classed under the nefarious amendment No. 1, would not have to assist in paying the $18,000,000 state good roads bonds, and on the side, suggested that this may be used as an argument in favor of the county scheme. This sounded so good that a vote of thanks was immediately moved for him. In his usual meek way your humble servant called attention to the nearness of this information, in that it had not been shown that the "ordinary taxpayer," would have to pay to the county the proportion of the taxes not paid by the corporations; likewise this ordinary fellow would have to pay his own and make up the corporations' shares of all the school bonds voted in the county; that in Fullerton he must make good on that $146,000 road and bridge bond for his own and the corporation's; also in Anaheim on a $90,000 sewer bond, the ordinary fellow would needs have to come through for himself and likewise the extra ordinary one. However, Stewart's spirits were so bouyed up with the full stomach and thanks that ORANGE SEASON CLOSING Anaheim Fruit Association Achieved Splendid Results Editor Gazette.—In reply to your inquiry for information in reference to our work the past season, we beg to state that we are always glad to make public every detail of our association, we have nothing to hide, but as a matter of fact, our most enthusiastic supporters are those growers who have given the California Fruit Growers Exchange method of marketing citrus fruit the closest study and investigation. The following are extracts from letters lately received which speak for themselves as far as the result of our work in the packing house is concerned: (1) "Your fruit has given good satisfaction, your packing and loading are of neat appearance and the quality generally up to grade." (2) "Your fruit is very satisfactory, pack grade, etc., are first rate." (3) "Your pack has found favor in our market." (4) "Your brands are very satisfactory both in pack and grade." (5) "Your fruit and pack show up first rate." We can show you extracts of letters from every market we have supplied with fruit and everyone has a good word for our work, these letters we may add are from fruit men who have the reputation of being the most exacting amongst the trade. During the past season, in spite of the enormous crop (the biggest California has ever had), and the many cars of fruit the trade had consequently to select from, we received 126 direct orders for our brands against 25 the year before, and from actual detailed reports of the different exchange fruit inspectors from the receiving points, we can show their associations. And realized world you will find sperous and contented fruit growers, where the California Fruit Growers banded themselves to med a selling organic sole aims are to produce the smallest necessaryney, market them at through channels theyly striving to broaden Obtaining full market crops and receiving ntainty and promptness absolutely without quail. The Anaheim Fruit numbers 93 members control their own business amongst this member of the oldest and largest country, growers every known method their fruit, but who that the California Fruit change system was tageous and profitabler. We take pleasure in anyone asking for in our association, and too great if we cannot modulate any of our mners, and we have rited that our efforts to bring the growers of this them a thoroughly ministration have been successful. Thanking you for assuring you our service command if we can offer other information, we Anaheim Fruit A.G. W. Sandilands, BASEBALL Home Nine Meet Monday Sunday, to pay his own and make up the corporations' shares of all the school bonds voted in the county; that in Fullerton he must make good on that $146,000 road and bridge bond for his own and the corporation's; also in Anaheim on a $90,000 sewer bond, the ordinary fellow would needs have to come through for himself and likewise the extra ordinary one. However, Stewart's spirits were so bouyed up with the full stomach and prospect of the vote of thanks that he took another plunge and produced some misinformation. He said that we could now vote a hundred million dollars in state bonds, and we of the ordinary class would not have to pay a cent of it. Again the writer called attention to the fact that the amount that could be collected from the corporations was fixed and that the ordinary fellow would have to assist in making up any deficit by an ad valorem tax. For such disagreeable information some one informed me that it was ten minutes past four, thereby trying to scare me out, while the vote of thanks for Stewart went through with a whoop. Fellow-citizen Stewart, you are dreaming. Turn over and pinch yourself. ANDERSON OVERFLOWS Under the stimulus of a great feed ex-State Senator Anderson informed us there was a good time a-coming. He assured us that the best way was to go on and tax everybody more and more, not only the extraordinary but the ordinary; that he was one of the heaviest taxpayers in the county and that the higher that taxes were the better he liked it. REAP WHAT IS SOWN Right here it might be well to suggest that neither the taxgathers nor the corporations are not worked. Whatsoever is sown by the ordinary voter such must the taxpayer reap. MORE ROADS NOT NEEDED HERE In a talk with county highway engineer, Halladay, he informed me that there were no more of the paved roads needed in this end of the county and that anyone who would suggest that roads be paved where not needed, even if the voters were thick, was nearing the horse thief class. BRIDGE PROBLEM IMPOSSIBLE As to bridges in this end of the county he says the problem is impossible unless somebody will please laso the runaway river and tie and hold it. Here is a great opening for somebody. Who'll do it? However I insisted that there was good word for our work, these letters we may add are from fruit men who have the reputation of being the most exacting amongst the trade. During the past season in spite of the enormous crop (the biggest California has ever had), and the many cars of fruit the trade had consequently to select from, we received 126 direct orders for our brands against 25 the year before, and from actual detailed reports of the different exchange fruit inspectors from the receiving points, we can show that we did not have a car, so far shipped this season, that was reported as "Poor" in a single detail of our packing house work, of the total 3 only were "fair," all the rest being from "Good" to "Extra Good". We believe that the above is sufficient to prove that our work has been consistently first class. To the query "Does a man who raises first class fruit, directly benefit through the quality of his fruit, over his negihbor who does not raise quite such good fruit," To this we emphatically reply Yes, our competitors' statements to the contrary, notwithstanding. Just stop and think, how could any growers association exist if this were not the case. It is the most important detail we have always before us, and which we believe under our system has been perfected, and certainly is successfully carried out. Every grower's fruit is received and through a double check system cannot possibly go astray, every grower's fruit is graded and packed separate, every grade of fruit is pooled separately, and invariably shipped and sold in different markets. Hence the grower who is raising first class fruit has more fruit packed under the first grade and brand and shipped to the markets calling for that class of fruit. On the other hand the man who has more of the lower grade of fruit has his fruit shipped to those markets which call for that particular class of fruit. As before stated, the returns on each grade of fruit is made separately, and therefore the grower who has good first class fruit gets considerably more money for his crop; and as we as an association working at all times for the protection and in the interests of our members, solicit for membership those only who are endeavoring to improve the quality of their fruit by taking proper care of their orchards. The result is our output of high grade fruit is above the average. In order to assist and encourage our members to raise larger and better crops we are now carrying on... BRIDGE PROBLEM IMPOSSIBLE As to bridges in this end of the county he says the problem is impossible unless somebody will please lasso the runaway river and tie and hold it. Here is a great opening for somebody. Who'll do it? However I insisted that there was the river in its wild and natural state. That it was up to the engineering department to catch, tie, hold and bridge it. The bridges must be built. GAMBLING DEN RAIDED Officers Swop Down at Newport Beach and Make Arrests City Marshal Hermes and Deputy Gilman of Newport Beach and Constable Jackson of Santa Ana raided a gambling joint at Newport Beach Sunday night, and arrested nine men most of them fishermen. The place was located back of the hotel, and it seems to have been closely guarded against a raid. The top was protected by several strands of barbed wire, which would have brought disaster to any officer who sought entrance from above. The officers made a run at the door and broke it down with their shoulders. G. G. Shoemaker, doorkeeper, tried to shut the inner door in their faces, but was caught and prevented from doing so. Officers say that there were men sitting at the table, and that there were piles of chips and money on the table. John Landis, who the officers say ran the joint, scooped up the money and put it in his pocket. The cops got about 190 decks of cards, and a big box of chips, and found about $160 in coin. In order to assist and encourage our members to raise larger and better crops we are now carrying on hand the very best obtainable complete fertilizers, compounded from the most successful formulas. These are to be had by the association members at prices that will save them considerable money. Many other necessities of the successful orange grove are also to be obtained through this association at prices made possible only by the enormous volume of business done by the California Fruit Growers Exchange, who are thoroughly alive to the interests of the citrus grower. The Exchange is working amongst other things for a cheaper and more effective funigation system for the elimination of scale, and we have it on good authority that something of interest will be given out before long. The California Fruit Growers Exchange is adding new growers to its membership list every year, which is conclusive proof that its results and methods of handling citrus fruit are highly satisfactory to the growers. All exchanges and associations of orchardists, ranchers or farmers have been successful wherever their business methods were clean and straightforward. Ask the wheat farmers of the middle west where they would be were it not for their associations, and what would have become of the apple growers of the north without their associations. All over the civilized world you will find the most prosperous and contented farmers and fruit growers, where they have, like the California Fruit Growers Exchange banded themselves together and formed a selling organization, whose sole aims are to produce crops for the smallest necessary outlay of money, market them at actual cost through channels they are continually striving to broaden and deepen. Obtaining full market value for these crops and receiving returns, the certainty and promptness of which are absolutely without question. The Anaheim Fruit Association now numbers 93 members who own and control their own packing plant and the business of the association. And amongst this membership are some of the oldest and largest growers in the country, growers who have tried every known method of marketing their fruit, but who finally decided that the California Fruit Growers Exchange system was the most advantageous and profitable. We take pleasure in replying to anyone asking for information about our association, and no trouble is too great if we can satisfy or accommodate any of our members and growers, and we have reason to believe that our efforts to be of service to the growers of this section in giving them a thoroughly businesslike administration have been more than successful. Thanking you for the inquiry, and assuring you our services are at your command if we can give you any further information, we beg to remain, Anaheim Fruit Association, G. W. Sandilands, Sec'y and Mgr. BASEBALL SEASON Home Nine Meet Moneta Merchants Sunday, Sept. 10 greatest establishments in Europe or America. He will come here with his family to reside, having selected this city as offering the most inducements in his line to be found in any town on the coast.

RUN OVER AND KILLED Jose Acosta Made Bed Alongside of Railroad Track Jose Acosta, aged 28, was struck by a Santa Fe train about 10 o'clock on Saturday night near Yorba, and received injuries from which he died at 8 o'clock Sunday morning. Acosta and Jesus Higuera were intoxicated at the time, and were returning to Higuera's place at Yorba when Higuera fell out of the cart and lay beside the road until morning. Acosta drove on for half a mile before he missed his compadre. The horse was found in the cart hitched to a tree near the Santa Fe crossing. Acosta may have left the cart to hunt for Higuera, and probably fell in a stupor beside the rails. It was 3 o'clock Sunday morning when William De Berri, returning to his home from a dance at Olive, saw the body beside the track. He saw that his hand was mangled and his head hurt. De Berri notified Constable Boisseranc, and with Louis Robertson, another young man returning from the dance, and who had passed the body without examining it, returned to the crossing, and took charge until the county physician arrived from Santa Ana. At the inquest Higuera testified that he remembered nothing after sundown Saturday evening until he BASEBALL SEASON Home Nine Meet Moneta Merchants Sunday, Sept. 10 Manager Fiala of the Anaheim baseball club has arranged a game with the Moneta Merchants of Los Angeles for the season's opening on the home grounds Sunday afternoon, September 10. Manager Fiala has signed a strong nine, and will give patrons of the game an exhibition in every way worthy of their patronage. The Moneta Merchants are among the strongest clubs in the Angelic City, and while playing here last year demonstrated their ability on the diamond as gentlemanly ball players. The game will be played on the new high school grounds, which are being converted into one of the best ball parks in the state. Manager Fiala and his men will strive to wear the scalps of the visitors at conclusion of the game, and will give them a battle which is destined to live long in the history of the game hereabout. The record of last year's local club was such as to bring it fame throughout amateur baseball circles the coast over. Losing only four games in the season, and meeting strong clubs, the club won for itself the title of champions of the county. They will strive to retain the title the coming season, and expect their friends to be on hand at the opening game to see them turn the first trick. Officers of the club are Steve Cottle president, Herman Stock vice-president, Frank Tausch secretary, Max Horwitz treasurer, and L. J. Fiala manager. They are fans from away back, and each declare the opening game will demonstrate the fact that the local club has lost none of its ability to hit the ball, perloin bases and play tip-top ball generally. They are out to win, and will begin the execution on Sunday the 10th. Let a record-breaking crowd be in attendance. The club practiced on Sunday morning at the Los Angeles-street ball grounds and will again be out on Sunday next. NEW JEWELRY STORE the body beside the track. He saw that his hand was mangled and his head hurt. De Berri notified Constable Boissercanc, and with Louis Robertson, another young man returning from the dance, and who had passed the body without examining it, returned to the crossing, and took charge until the county physician arrived from Santa Ana. At the inquest Higuera testified that he remembered nothing after sundown Saturday evening until he awakened Sunday morning beside the road. He was told that Acosta was dead, and he went to Corona and notified Acosta's wife. WANTS A NEW TRIAL That an appeal is to be taken in the case in which Arthur P. McDonald of Placentia was decreed to be owner of the $25,000 estate of his late grandmother, Mrs. Lucy Devonshire, is indicated by the fact that the attorneys for those who lost the suit have filed a notice of motion for a new trial. The notice is filed by Attorneys Collier, Carnahan & Craig and H. C. Hibbard for E. H. Markel, Mrs. Nellie Arper and others, who claimed the estate as heirs. The motion is to be made on eight different grounds. ADVERTISED LETTERS R. T. Beck, Lionden Ballestero de Ellisalda, Mrs. A. Schimmings, Mrs. P. Stambough, Robert E. Lee, Mr. V.

California Enterprise Proves Good Profit Payer to Its Stockholders — Advance in Shares The superb record of 50 per cent in cash dividends is the proud boast of "HOME BUILDERS" stockholders. This great cash distribution represents the dividend earnings during the past three and one half years, so it is no wonder that the stock of this concern has shown a steady upward march in price. One thousand shares bought three and a half years ago has earned $526.13 in cash dividends, and the value of the thousand shares has gone from one dollar each or $1000, to $2.30 each, or $2,300.00, which if you add the cash received, the investment will show a profit of over 175 per cent. The great value of an investment is in its earnings—provided it is safe. Purely speculative ventures promise big profit, but here is an investment which is certainly as profitable as any one could ask, and, at the same time, is as near absolutely safe as business ingenuity can devise. This investment and building enterprise is growing right along with regular Southern CalifoFia zest. It has piled up a surplus of almost a third of a million dollars, and the shareowner, besides the assurance of a stable company has a guaranty which further protects his investment. Shares are going to advance Saturday night September second, and the Los Angeles office of the company, Ground Floor, Mason Opera House building, as well as their local Branch office at 120 East Center street, is a busy place right now, booking subscriptions in anticipation of the raise.
