Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. THE CONGRESSIONAL SITUATION The congressional situation is becoming somewhat elucidated and at the same time more complicated. Former Mayor Evans of Riverside is being openly boomed for the nomination by the Riverside Enterprise, and from other sources the information comes that Mr. Evans is in a receptive frame of mind and that a movement is on foot to secure a showdown of strength in Riverside as between him and Francis Cuttle, whose friends throughout the district have been urging him to make the race. Either of these gentlemen, in the opinion of the Santa Ana Register, would make a strong candidate and a good congressman. By way of "The Lancer," in the Los Angeles Times, comes this contribution: "Senor Miguel Estudillo, he of the circumference of the orange belt, who represents Riverside and Or-woe, the burden of her story having to do with alleged high-handed methods in the administration of justice which are alleged to prevail in Anaheim. Senora Garcia is not to say fair, but she's fat and fully forty, and her story as told the district attorney exposed an alleged vile plot by which her husband was deprived of a demi-john of joy water and five dollars in cash by the minions of the corrupt judiciary of the Mother Colony, which property goods and chattels she want returned muy pronto to their owner, with the alternative of tearing the Anaheim township court right up by the roots and sewing it broadcast over the seven southern counties of the great state of California. Briefly told, the woman's story was that last Saturday she, with her husband and several members of the family visited Anaheim, and later, her husband, having become nauseated at some of the things found there, he was reclining in a secluded alley when the brutal minions of the law pounced upon him, took him into custody and rudely dragged him to the municipal bastile and deposited him with a dull thud on the cement floor and there left him until the following morning, when after subjecting him to the forty-second degree, they pinched off five dollars from his ten dollar roll and started him for home. retaining to their own personal use and benefit the remaining moiety of his money, to wit, five dollars, with a demi-john of Oh-be-joyful juice he had purchased the day before for me- as between him and Francis Cuttle, whose friends throughout the district have been urging him to make the race. Either of these gentlemen, in the opinion of the Santa Ana Register, would make a strong candidate and a good congressman. By way of "The Lancer," in the Los Angeles Times, comes this contribution: "Senor Miguel Estudillo, he of the circumference of the orange belt, who represents Riverside and Orange in the state senate, was in Los Angeles last week to find out if he should become a candidate for congress in the new eleventh district as a real for-sure La Follette man. Miguel is a "progressive" and being so wants to provide for his political appetite, like the rest of them. He has a chance to go back to the senate. At any rate Miguel feels the call of duty, is the man of the hour, needs the pie and therefore is a La Follette candidate. But also are Roberts, King, Cuttle, and others who would go to congress. "In addition Washington dispatches say Congressman Needham of the present sixth district, is seriously considering the request of A. F. Call, a leader of the citrus growers, that he move to the southland and seek the nomination in the eleventh. There is little probability, in fact, that Needham will make the change. Voters do not take to such things even when a man is as worthy as Needham, and as well known to the south, which he has always stood by." "If I am correctly informed the situation in the eleventh will be improved by the announcement soon that Richard Melrose of Anaheim, former assemblyman from Orange county, will be a candidate before the primaries. Melrose has lived in this district for forty years and has been conspicuous in his defense of the farmers' rights against the water grabbers. Melrose served in the thirty-eighth session of the legislature, but declined re-election, though it was offered him spontaneously. In the assembly he was conspicuous in the Japanese fight, and was floor leader for Speaker Stanton when he put down the jingo revolt. He was a leader in the fight for the anti-race track law of that session and was right on all the moral issues. Melrose is at present president of the Los Angeles Normal school board." AH CARAHO.

RASTUS GOT THE TURKEY Rastus was sent by his master, a southern colonel, to get a turkey for the Sunday dinner. When he returned with the turkey the colonel discovered, upon examination, that it was full of birdshot. Angrily he asked the darky why he had shot the gobler instead of buying it, as per instructions. "Lawdy, Massa," pleaded Rastus, "ah didn't do no shootin'; dem shot was meant fo me." C. C. Chapman will preach at the Christian church next Sunday morning. NO KINGS IN THIS COUNTRY But if there were and they would visit the Palace market they would find everything to the King’s taste; only high grade meats on hand; prices always right; prompt auto delivery service; everything spick and span; employees always courteous; in fact they would find our market the Crown Market of Southern California. And last, but not least, that we are sole agents for Imperial Creamery Butter, the best on the Coast. Palace Market WILLIAM SCHUMACHER, Prop Sole Agent for Imperial Creamery Butter. Both Phones 119 E. Center Street their pockets, they took their places in their Wright biplanes, and after making a perfect start, took the air. The real deputies speeded their machines up in an attempt to catch up with Martin and Gill. The four aviators returned at 3 o'clock, after being in the air 3 hours and 10 minutes. Turpin thought he had found his man but on skimming close to the ground, saw that the man was only a farmer gathering up chips for a fire. After scouting about in the foothills, using a powerful spy glass in an effort to locate the fugitives, Turpin gave orders for the party to return to the field at Dominguez. So spectacular was the manhunt that General Manager Dick Ferris decided to put such an event on the long program for the big aviation meet January 20 to 28. Three or four "fugitives" will be placed in different sections of the vicinity of Dominguez and the aeroplane flyers will try to locate them, descend and capture them. Miss Blanche Scott, "the Tomboy of the Air" and most daring birdwoman in the world, is in Los Angeles preparing for her part in the great aviation meet at Dominguez field during January 20-28. Miss Scott is absolutely the most hazard risking devil-may-care aviatrice in the sport. Even the most courageous of the men flyers admit that. Her feats with a Curtiss biplane are nerve racking and for the coming meet the young woman promises some stunts which never have been done before.

Parmelee and Turpin, two of the most daring aviators in the game, were sworn in as aerial deputies by Sheriff Hammel of Los Angeles county and given their stars with full power to act as officers. Glenn Martin, the California aviator, and Howard Gill arrived at Dominguez field first, and weary of waiting for Turpin and Parmelee to arrive, jumped into their machines, and a few minutes later were out of sight, sailing in the direction of the San Fernando valley where the would be murderers are supposed to be hiding. Hardly had they disappeared over the crest of the field, when Turpin and Parmelee dashed up in an automobile, waiting only long enough to slip a pair of handcuffs into Miss Dora Zeyn has recovered from serious illness of several weeks duration.
