The Weekly Gazette. DURO CAR COMPANY MAY COME TO ANAHEIM Desiring to abandon its present manufacturing site in Los Angeles, the Duro automobile company is looking to Anaheim for a new location, and if plans set on foot this week are carried to completion, of which there exists but little doubt, Anaheim will shortly number among its enterprises a concern which occupies a notable place among manufacturing establishments in Southern California. The Duro car company employs from 75 to 115 men and has a weekly payroll of from $1200 to $1500. It is desirous of expanding its business, and seeks an outside location where its buildings may be all upon the ground floor, instead of being housed in a structure many stories in height. Anaheim looks good to the directors of the company, and if conditions may be met, this city will soon add to its resources a manufacturing concern of no mean importance. The company asks a site of five acres, and which can be easily obtained, and a stock subscription of from $50,000 to $75,000. A committee consisting of Gen. J. O. Royer, H. A. Dickell and Richard Melrose went to Los Angeles on Friday and held a consultation with the president and directors of the company. They were given assurances that the company would move its works to Anaheim upon conditions named. The committee submitted the following report to the board of trade, which will take the matter up at its next meeting. the evening of September 8th (and Friday at that) and were wed. When Mr. and Mrs. LaRue returned they found the young people keeping house and having cooked their own wedding feast they sat down with them and helped eat it. Miss Stockton is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. N. Stockton of Tulare and for the past year has made her home with Mr. and Mrs. LaRue. It was during this time that she became acquainted with Mr. Edrington and over the account books the friend ship started that later deepened into love. "We are going to be ever so happy," said the charming little bride as she bent over a pan of peaches she was preparing for the preserving kettle, one morning last week. "I don't know much about cooking, but I am learning and that helps some," and her blushes vied with the rosy hued peaches she was paring. Miss Madaline Whitaker of Anaheim spent the week end with Miss Margaret Martin. Miss Wanita Simpson has as her house-guest, Miss Lepper, a very charming young lady from Los Angeles, and a niece of Dr. and Mrs. Hasson. Mr. and Mrs. D. S. Patterson of Santa Fe Springs spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Cole. Mrs. C. H. Newcombe left the latter part of the week for San Bernardino on a business trip. WHY VOTE HIGH SCHOOL BONDS? A question which frequently comes to me for answer is: Why do we nee to vote more bonds for the high school? And another is: Why did you not call for sufficient money at the beginning to complete the building?

Dickell and Richard Melrose went to Los Angeles on Friday and held a consultation with the president and directors of the company. They were given assurances that the company would move its works to Anaheim upon conditions named. The committee submitted the following report to the board of trade, which will take the matter up at its next meeting. Sept. 18, 1911. The attention of the undersigned having been called to the desire of the manufacturers of the Duro automobile to remove their factory from the city of Los Angeles to some convenient nearby town, we inspected their factory on last Friday, and had a pleasant interview with the management. The concern seems to be a prosperous one, employing from 70 to 115 men, and having a payroll of from $1200 to $1500 a week, and with more capital to draw upon many more men could be profitably employed. It is their desire to increase the output of their factory, and there are many hindrances to this plan as long as the factory is situated in the city of Los Angeles. As a result of our talk with the management, they have offered to consider a proposition from Anaheim, looking to the establishment of their factory here; and if a site of five acres be given to them for factory purposes, and from $50,000 to $75,000 worth of stock be subscribed for by our people, there is little doubt that this desirable industry can be secured for Anaheim. Permit us to suggest that you appoint a committee to see these gentlemen; or appoint a day to meet them in Anaheim and discuss the proposition with them. They are ready to come here at any time for that purpose, and will lay before the board all facts, figures and other data in their possession. They assured us that the business is a prosperous one, and will bear the fullest investigation. Respectfully, J. O. ROYER, H. A. DICKEL, RICHARD MELROSE. It is currently reported that Gen. Royer stands ready to head a subscription list with a large block of stock. In town news of the Duro company's desire to come here evokes enthusiasm, and on all sides are heard expressions favorable to locating the company here. It is believed stock purchases could cost $75,000. WHY VOTE HIGH SCHOOL BONDS? A question which frequently comes to me for answer is: Why do we nee to vote more bonds for the high school? And another is: Why did you not call for sufficient money at the beginning to complete the building? In order that all may find satisfactory answer to the questions, I take this public way of answering them. It will be recalled that late in the winter there was considerable discussion in regard to a merger with the Fullerton high school and that while many patrons in both Anaheim and Fullerton districts favored it, yet a few persistently opposed it and succeeded in effectually blocking the proposition by calling for a $60,000 school bond election in Fullerton, which, although bungled and illegal, served to kill the merger idea. This was immediately followed in Anaheim by the discussion which led to the sale of the old high school property and the calling of an election for a change of site and for $70,000 bonds. It was absolutely necessary to make every moment count if we were to open high school by October in new buildings, and it was just as necessary that the grammar school should be opened in the old high school building in September, if at all. In order to accomplish these ends the architect was called in and the calls for bonds issued at approximately the same time, instead of having the plans drawn up and cost estimated first and the call made afterwards, as would have been done had there been a year, instead of five months, in which to work. The architect drew up the plans and specifications in a way satisfactory to teachers and board and bids were called for. The lowest bid amounted to $107,000, and was about $12,000 lower than the nearest competitor. Since there was but $75,000 funds available, only three things were possible: First, reject all bids, but that would mean no school facilities; second, cheapen the construction, but that would mean the erection of a school edifice of which Anaheim would be ashamed; third, complete as much of the plant as the funds will allow, and trust to the citizens of the Anaheim district to complete the construction as soon as possible. The latter was considered to medals presented him for Queen Victoria, and thus highly. He will take him. He is waiting for formation from the Brant at Washington, upon request he will begin plans for age. He is pleased at this conferred upon him, and tends having the time while abroad. He will absent several months.

BUENA PARK AND VICINITY The latest reports from Geo.Trapp who has been seriously ill and was operated on for appendicitis in Los Angeles on Thursday morning, are encouraging. Mr. and Mrs. Trapp made up the party that accompanied Albert Schumacher on his motor trip to San Diego. On the return trip Mr.Trapp was taken seriously ill and when the party reached Encinitas he was found to be too ill to proceed. From there he was hurried by rail into Los Angeles to the hospital. His many friends are glad to hear of his improved condition and express their sincere hopes for his complete recovery. One of the surprises of the past week was the wedding of Miss Clarice Stockton, bookkeeper of the Cypress mercantile company, and Guy Edrington, of the same firm. When their engagement was announced Mr. and Mrs. LaRue, the former being the proprietor of the store and a cousin of the bride, promised them a big wedding but taking advantage of their absence on a vacation, the couple decided to let sly little cupid officiate as master of ceremonies and they slipped away to Santa Ana on ANAHEIM GAZETTE Mayor Rust, Councilman Stark, W. J. W. Orr, N. Hart, J. L. Schumacher, L. A. Evans, George Terry and John Ziegler left in two autos yesterday for Pomona, Riverside and other upvalley towns on a tour of inspection of concrete poles for street lighting.

VETERAN OF CRIMEAN WAR Alexander Henry Will Go to India to See King's Coronation Alexander Henry has received an invitation through the British consul in Los Angelse to attend King George's coronation at Burmah, India, the latter part of the year, and will make the trip at expense of the Britiish government. King George has issued invitations to all veterans of the Crimean war and Indian ministry to be guests of his government during the coronation festivities at Burmah. He was present at the consul's office in Los Angeles this week, and was there tendered the invitation on behalf of the British government. Mr. Henry fought throughout the Crimean war, 1854-6, and was present at the battles of Almy and Inkerman and the siege of Sebastopol. He has medals presented him for bravery by Queen Victoria, and these he treasures highly. He will take them with him. He is waiting for further information from the British minister at Washington, upon receipt of which he will begin plans or his long voyage. He is pleased at the great honor conferred upon him, and says he intends having the time of his life while abroad. He will probably be absent several months.
