TO PROTECT FISH AND GAME IN ORANGE CO. SPORTSMEN ORGANIZE ASSOCIATION AND WILL VIGOROUSLY UPHOLD MEASURES COMMITTEE TO BE NAMED TO FURNISH INFORMATION OF MEN WHO SHOOT OUT OF SEASON The Orange County Fish and Game Protection Association organized at Santa Ana Thursday evening by adopting a constitution and by laws and by the election of officers. The association is now in a position to and will vigorously enforce game laws in this section. Deputies are to be selected and by an organization of men who work together those who shoot game out of season will find foes ready and anxious to grab them and take them before justices of the peace. A number of important matters were taken up. One result of the meeting was the appointment of a committee to ask the county authorities to amend the county shell-fish ordinance so that mussels can be protected. The following officers were elected: President, W. L. Grubb, Santa Ana; first vice-president, O. K. Forgy, Santa Ana; second vice-president, H. Parker, Orange; secretary, E. R. Curtis, Santa Ana; treasurer, D. L. Anderson, Santa Ana; directors, J. A. Ricker, Newport Beach; M. Hubbard, San Juan Capistrano; E. K. Benchley, Fullerton; El-guna Hills preserve. James Sleeper, J. C. Joplin and T. E. Stephenson were appointed as a committee to make a report on game preserves. Robinson stated that it would be a good plan for the association to employ men to save small trout caught in small pools at the end of the summer. These trout could be caught by net and placed in pools where they would not perish. Victor Walker outlined the situation in regard to the devastation of the abalone and mussel beds along the coast. He said that mussels are being shipped in big quantities and that the rocks at Boat Canyon had been stripped. Walker thought some strenuous measures ought to be adopted to make the Japs leave the abalone beds. Robinson stated that the Japs are strictly following the law. D. L. Anderson, E. R. Curtis and Dr. Dobson were appointed as a committee to ask the supervisors to amend the county ordinance so that there may be a limit on the amount of mussels taken. Walker reported that there have been violations of fishing laws at Newport Beach, and it was decided to have evidence brought up at the next meeting to see if the deputy commissioner there has been lax, and if so, the influence of the association may be used in an endeavor to get a new deputy appointed. The dues of the association are $1 a year, payable to Secretary Curtis. BOARD GETS OIL REPORT Amalgamated Company Submits Statements of Production for August Anaheim, Sept. 21, 1912. A regular meeting of the Board of Directors was held on the above date with all members present. Minutes of the last regular meeting of September 7th and special meeting... meeting was the appointment of a committee to ask the county authorities to amend the county shell-fish ordinance so that mussels can be protected. The following officers were elected: President, W. L. Grubb, Santa Ana; first vice-president, O. K. Forgy, Santa Ana; second vice-president, H. Parker, Orange; secretary, E. R. Curtis, Santa Ana; treasurer, D. L. Anderson, Santa Ana; directors, J. A. Ricker, Newport Beach; M. Hubbard, San Juan Capistrano; E. K. Benchley, Fullerton; Elmer Jahraus, Laguna Beach; H. J. Forgy, Santa Ana; Ed Larter, Smeltzer; Herman Stern, Anaheim; Frank Maag, Orange; C. Gilderman, Orange. The meeting was called to order by Dr. G. H. Dobson, with John Carlyle as secretary. The report of the committee on constitution and by-laws was accepted with one amendment. That amendment made the directors elective instead of appointive. The objects of the association as stated in the document are the protection and propagation of fish and game, including game, song and insectivous birds. The president is to appoint a committee of five, names to be secret, to aid in prosecuting violators of game laws. This committee will keep the names of informants secret, and will assist in getting up evidence and in furthering the purposes of the association. The president is to name three delegates to go to the state convention of game associations. The delegates will meet with delegates from other counties of the division, and will recommend to the legislature proposed changes in game laws, and the fish and game commission promises to use its efforts to get the laws passed. It was decided to hold a meeting of the association with these delegates before they go to the convention, to talk over measures that Orange county sportsmen would like to see enacted. With the adoption of the constitution permanent officers were elected. Hilt Parker asked if it was the sentiment of those present that the dove and quail seasons be the same. He said he thought that change would be the best means of protecting quail. There was no voice against the proposal. Dr. Dobson said he thought the deer season should be shortened to two weeks and the limit to one buck. Deputy Game Commissioner Robinson said he thought the season short enough. "I think the deer are slightly on the increase," said he. "At any rate last year there were but 15 bucks killed in appointed. The dues of the association are $1 a year, payable to Secretary Curtis.

"That grafting alderman has a queer defense." "What is it?" "That he shouldn't have been given the money that he demanded." When Mr. Bain had concerned members of the association pressed their views, all seriously of the improved seals ever, it was felt by those in the matter was one with trustees were competent with which there should be reference by the association ground no action was taken. WILL RECLAIM 2,000 Big Storm Ditch Will Be Valuable Land From 1,500 to 2,000 acres land along the boundary of San Bernardino and Orange is to be reclaimed through a big storm ditch.

GAS OFFICIALS WANT A RESTORATION OF THE PREVIOUS RATE COMPANY ALLEGES IT IS LOSING MONEY AT ORANGE UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS MERCHANTS’ ASSOCIATION PASS MATTER UP TO BOARD OF CITY TRUSTEES In an effort to secure the moral support of the Merchants' and Manufacturers' Association of Orange, in an attempt to put the gas rate back to $1.25 per thousand cubic feet, officials of the Southern Counties Gas Company some evenings ago set forth the conditions under which they allege the company is doing business there. Addressing a meeting of that body, they represented that the gas company is actually losing money in supplying Orange at $1.15, the rate set by the city trustees. Attorney Goodwin, representing the gas company, declared that with the 160 meters now measuring gas in Orange, the receipts are actually some 30 less each month than the expenses, and that without figuring any interest on the investment. Mr. Goodwin quoted from the statement of conditions recently published by the company, and pointed out that the figures there given proved conclusively that the company is operating at a loss. He declared that the company's books are open to any committee of citizens for investigation to prove the correctness or incorrectness of the statements made. "We are appealing to the sense of fairness of the citizens of Orange in REVIVAL TENT MEETINGS Large Congregations Gather to Hear Brown and Curry The Brown and Curry tent meeting opened last Lord's day morning with a large gathering of people who listened most attentively to the inspiring address of Mr. Brown on "Hope." Discouraging all from going down to the old juniper tree when we should be on the mountain top of hopefulness and joy in Christian service. Mr. Brown said he never found but one man in all his travels who had not a crooked beaten path down to that old juniper tree of discouragement. And that one had gotten down there and never been back since. Do not be like Elijah,—get down under that old juniper tree and ask God to let you die when He perhaps has a glorious ascension prepared for you as He did for Elijah. Mr. Brown's evening address was taken from Moses' call to Israel asking them, "Who is on the Lord's side." And all who were willing to be on the Lord's side crossed over the line drawn by Moses. Outlining his lesson under three heads, 1—Separation, drawing a line between right and wrong between themselves and the world, or as Paul put it in Romans 12:9; abhoring that which is evil and cleaving to that which is good." "Love the Lord thy God, etc., paralleled with what Jesus said in Matt. 22:37," "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." "Being not unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity?, II Cor. 6:14. 2, Unity—Sin is the greatest organized force in the world today battling against righteousness, and if the church is to make any impression upon this organized force it must become a unit in its organization against sin. You can not have victory MILLIONS ARE BEING EXPENDED ON THE SAN PEDRO HARBOR DOCKS AND TRACKAGE FACILITIES WILL BE ERECTED BY SALT LAKE RAILROAD GATEWAY TO COMMERCE OF MIDDLE WESTERN STATES IN OPPOSITION TO CHICAGO The Salt Lake railroad will spend $20,000,000 in dock and trackage facilities at East San Pedro in order to make Los Angeles the gateway to the Middle Western States in competition with Chicago, upon the opening of the Panama Canal and the consequent reountings of commerce. This announcement was made this week. Former United States Senator W. A. Clark, copper king and Salt Lake road builder, and Richard A. Kerens, heavy stockholder in the road, St. Louis millionaire and ambassador to Austria, have agreed upon the expenditure without delay. This is the secret of Mr. Kerens' recent trip in his private car to San Pedro, where he spent most of his time in a launch upon the harbor. This was the chief object of his return from Austria on leave of absence. Four great concrete slips, each 1400 feet long, it is announced, will be built to provide ample accommodation for the tremendous increase in freight receipts at the port. The vast frontage of the Salt Lake road at the harbor will be utilized in the most advantageous way. Direct connection via the Salt Lake road between Los Angeles and Neva- Mr. Goodwin quoted from the statement of conditions recently published by the company, and pointed out that the figures there given proved conclusively that the company is operating at a loss. He declared that the company's books are open to any committee of citizens for investigation to prove the correctness or incorrectness of the statements made. "We are appealing to the sense of fairness of the citizens of Orange in this matter," said Mr. Goodwin. "We recognize that it is an unusual procedure for a public service company, but we have confidence in the fairness of the public, and we believe that if they are convinced that we are acting in good faith and cannot furnish good service at the present rate without losing money, they will not oppose the restoration of the rate to $1.25." Speaking of the alternative, in case the rate is not restored, Mr. Goodwin gave no indication of what the policy of the company might be. "There will be still a course open," he said. "We can appeal to the courts for protection against this ordinance, but we do not wish to spend one dollar in litigation that might be employed in the improvement of our service." President Bain of the company then addressed the merchants. He said that the company had earnestly attempted to improve the service ever since acquiring the Orange plant, and that their efforts are being recognized by the increasing number of applications for gas. He said that the company desired to be allowed to do business under the same conditions enjoyed by any merchant, with the privilege of making a fair profit, and that the company would reciprocate by taking an interest in the welfare of the city. He said that the company would giveond to place the rate at $1.20 when the number of meters reached 650 and at $1.15 when it reached 900. In answer to an inquiry, he gave the following list of rates charged and number of meters used in towns under the Southern Counties system: | Meters | Rate | | :--- | :--- | | Santa Ana | 2,021 | $1.00 | | Orange | 460 | 1.15 | | Anaheim | 527 | 1.25 | | Bullerton | 404 | 1.25 | | Whittler | 1,187 | 1.20 | | El Monte | 95 | 1.50 | | Terra Madre | 324 | 1.25 | | Arcadia | 22 | 1.50 | | Monrovia | 858 | 1.25 | | Azusa | 187 | 1.35 | | Novina | 349 | 1.35 | |lendale | 241 | 1.35 | He stated that Orange has the lowest consumption per meter as well as the fewest meters for population of God, etc., paralleled with what Jesus said in Matt. 22:37, "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." "Being not unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity?, II Cor. 6:14. 2, Unity—Sin is the greatest organized force in the world today battling against righteousness, and if the church is to make any impression upon this organized force it must become a unit in its organization against sin. You can not have victory in battle without unity of forces. So as long as sectarianism exists in the world the devil and his work will prosper. But when the church of Jesus Christ becomes a unit in declaring right against wrong, heaven against hell, and salvation against damnation, the organization of sin will crumble 3, Action—The answer to that call, "Who is on the Lord's side," demands action. Action through divine guidance, action for a divine purpose, action with an organized united service to God reaching toward that heavenly reward and answering that divine call, "Who is on the Lord's side?" Brother Curry's chorus and his personal energy is an inspiration to all these services. But his beautiful solos can not be enjoyed unless you are there any more than the chorus sung by the ladies who had their hats on Sunday evening. Monday evening Mr. Brown slew lions. The first one was the lion of fault-finding. This old lion in our way was described by Mr. Brown's faculty of picturing real living lions, which he determined was not in his audience; because he failed to get any one to stand after his description contributed to this most of all contemptible, despisable and vilifying old lion. He felt perfectly at home then to proceed with the other lions of indifference, of man-fearing, and of selfishness, which exist in the way of people today in doing service for God. There will be morning services every morning at 10 o'clock sharp, except Monday morning. The morning service on the "Personality of the Holy Spirit" was plainly and Scripturely handled. Come every morning and hear these Bible studies. Mr. Brown's sermons would not reach the hearts of the people were it not for the masterly singing of Brother Curry and his chorus. Such sweet solos you never heard. Sunday services as follows: Mass meeting, 3 P.M. Subject: "The Bible Against Infidelity." Preaching at 11 A.M. and 7:30 P.M. Great song service and great audiences.

Great song service and great audiences. FALLS FROM PIER WHILE ASLEEP Harry Whitehead Loses Life by Drowning at Newport Beach Harry Whitehead, of Los Angeles, was drowned when he fell off the Newport Beach pier Sunday morning about 8 o'clock. Whitehead and Conrad Schempf, of Los Angeles, went to Newport Beach Saturday evening to fish Saturday night and Sunday morning. Whitehead decided to go to sleep, and he stretched out on the pier. Schempf went to shore to see about some bait, and when he returned Whitehead was missing. Schempf made inquiry of some other anglers who were a short distance away, and was told that a splash was heard but that they did not know the man was missing. When daylight came Whitehead's body was found floating in the surf close to the pier. It is thought that he was asleep and either rolled off the pier while asleep or fell off when on awakening he was confused. He was 34 years old. He was a metal polisher for the Meyberg Company, Los Angeles. "For beauty I am not a star, There are others more handsome by far, But my face I don't mind it, For I am behind it, It's the others in front that I jar." Secretary of Agriculture Puts Ban on Island Fruits and Vegetables The following bulletin has been issued by Acting Secretary of Agriculture Willet M. Hayes: "Now, therefore, I, Willet M. Hayes, acting secretary of agriculture, under the authority conferred by section of the act approved August 20, 1912, known as 'the plant quarantine act,' do hereby quarantine said territory of Hawaii and do prohibit, by this notice of quarantine, No. 2, under the authority and discretion conferred in secretary of agriculture by section eight of the act of congress approved August 20, 1912, the movement from the territory of Hawaii into or through any other state, territory or district of the United States of the following fruits, seeds, vegetables and other plant products: All alligator pears, carambolas, Chinese ink berry, Chinese oranges, Chinese plums, coffee berries, damson plums, eugenias, figs, grapes, grape-fruit, green peppers, guavas, kamai seeds, kumquats, limes, loquats, mangos, mock oranges, mountain apple, Natal or Kaffir plum, oranges, papya, peaches, persimmons, prickly pears, rose apple, star apples, string beans, tomatoes.
