FOR GOOD ROADS People of Orange county who for some years past have been clamoring for better highways in the county will have opportunity on November 4 of voting for a bond issue, in amount $1,270,000 for construction of a system of paved thoroughfares. The county highway commission has treated all sections with uniform fairness and the northern portion has allotted to it a just proportion of highways to be improved. Now that the state highway commission is upon the eve of beginning work upon the main highway of the county at a cost of more than half a million dollars, it behooves our people to proceed at once to construction of an adequate system of roads. Indeed, the fact that the county has in contemplation this expenditure of money upon our roads, has created a most favorable impression with the state commission concerning Orange county. We believe that fact has had much weight in securing for us this splendid state highway. Good roads cost money, and the only means available for us to obtain them is by an adequate bond issue. Time is ripe for us to go ahead and build these roads. We should vote for these bonds to the end that Orange county may soon have one of the most splendid systems of paved highways to be found in California. If people really desire good roads, now is the time to secure them. Vote for the bonds and put Orange county on the map. Our thoroughfares have been a byword among all travelers. Let us improve them. Vote for the bonds. IN AND ABOUT THE CITY Miss Alice Hansen was a guest of friends in town over Sunday. Mrs. Jack Meehan of Orange was a week-end guest of Wm. Schumacher and family. Mrs. Harold Stevens arrived from Venice yesterday to join her husband who has taken a position in the Palace market. Dr. Parker, chief chemist of the Anaheim sugar factory, has been confined to his residence the past week with a severe attack of fever. Captain J. F. Ahlborn went up to Los Angeles yesterday to hold a conference with Major General Wood, chief-of-staff of the United States army relative to military affairs of local interest. Theodore Roberts has added a large new show case and new shelves in his East Center street jewelry store and has received a large shipment of high grade jewelry and silverware, showing that he is keeping up with the procession in every way. The interior front of the Fairyland theater is being repainted and when improvements are complete, the entire interior of this popular amusement resort will present a very attractive appearance. Manager Fiedler is always on the lookout for the best of everything for his patrons and keeps up with the times all the time. One of the enjoyable social affairs of the past week was a party given to employes of the Anaheim Steam Laundry by Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Theodore, Friday evening. The laundry building was decorated profusely for the occasion and tables were spread in the large room for the assembled guests. Delicious refreshments were set out and were much enjoyed. Cards and other games were played and a pleasant evening enjoyed. A burglar entered the home of Ignatz Boeckler on South Claudina street Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning when no one was at home and stole BUILDING STATE HIGHWAY As will be seen by a very interesting article published on another page of this issue, the activities of the state highway commission in Orange and San Diego counties, points to early beginning of work upon the state road. Indeed, a contract for construction of 8.4 miles of road in San Diego county has been awarded and work upon it is now in progress. In a communication received from Secretary Ellis of the commission, the interesting official statement is made that survey of the road through Orange county is nearly completed. This information tallies with that already at hand, inasmuch as Engineer Moore and his surveyors last week surveyed the route through this city. Engineer Moore is now in La Habra valley continuing the route to the Los Angeles county line, and will probably complete his work next week. The state commission will immediately take up the matter of calling for bids for actual construction of the roadway and the work will undoubtedly be pushed to early completion. In San Diego county other contracts for building the road will be let, and work pushed to the Orange county line. The outlook is good for completion of the state highway through both counties early in the new year. QUESTIONABLE PAVING PATENTS The position of the California Highway Commission upon patented devices for paving is that if there are any royalties to be paid for the use of any pavement or pavement processes in the construction of the state highway, the state will assume the responsibility, if the courts shall determine that the use of such pavements or processes is subject to claims for royalties under valid patents, and if the state by such use has committed a tort for which it is liable. The policy of the United States Patent Office, in issuing letters of patents for road types and processes so freely and with so little apparent discrimination, has resulted in much confusion. These patents are so numerous and conflicting in their claims that neither adequate bond issue. Time is ripe for us to go ahead and build these roads. We should vote for these bonds to the end that Orange county may soon have one of the most splendid systems of paved highways to be found in California. If people really desire good roads, now is the time to secure them. Vote for the bonds and put Orange county on the map. Our thoroughfares have been a byword among all travelers. Let us improve them. Vote for the bonds. A burglar entered the home of Ignatz Boeckler on South Claudina street Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning when no one was at home and stole about $37 in money and several small articles. Trunks had been overhauled and everything pointed to the fact that the burglar had leisurely investigated the contents of the whole house and took what suited his fancy. No one saw the man enter the building and it is thought he got in by means of a pass key. Officers are working on the case but no arrests have been made to date. A Mexican named Palomares was taken to the county jail Tuesday by District Attorney Koepsel and Deputy Sheriff Law on a felony charge. The man is charged with entering a house near the Anaheim sugar factory and stealing $76 in money, belonging to Encino Blanco, a young man employed at the factory. Complaint was sworn to by Blanco and Officer Germann went out and brought Palomares into town. The Santa Ana officers came over and took him to the county jail shortly before noon. The stolen money has not been found but officers say it is practically certain that Palomares is the thief. BACK FROM THE EAST C. F. Grim Returns From Visit With Relatives in Ohio C. F. Grim returned Thursday from a two-month's trip during which he visited a brother in the little town of Morrow in the State of Ohio, made famous by the song "I Want to Go to Morrow." Other cities visited were Cincinnati, Denver, Chicago, Terra Haute, Ind., and St. Paul. On his return trip he came west via the Canadian Pacific and saw many large and beautiful glaciers in the Canadian Rockies. After visiting in Vancouver, B. C., for a short time, he came down the coast and stopped at Portland, San Francisco, and for a short time stopped off in Berkeley to see his daughter, who is attending the university. Mr. Grim reports a very enjoyable trip, with weather quite warm as a rule. Crops in the Middle West are very bountiful and he saw several thousand acres of wheat of the largest yield in many years. While the faults are many, it must be American journalism unselfish work for our implement and best Stern & Goodman Merton, Olinda, Placec state will assume the responsibility, if the courts shall determine that the use of such pavements or processes is subject to claims for royalties under valid patents, and if the state by such use has committed a tort for which it is liable. The policy of the United States Patent Office, in issuing letters of patents for road types and processes so freely and with so little apparent discrimination, has resulted in much confusion. These patents are so numerous and conflicting in their claims that neither the contractors nor the engineers are ever sure of doing their work unharassed by claims of alleged patentees. The immediate result of this turmoil and uncertainty is that the people in many instances pay more than is right for their roads and streets. In self-defense, the contractor must bid sufficiently high so as to protect himself against embarrassment if he is called upon to defend himself against claims for royalties, even if he believes that the work for which proposals are asked does not infringe upon any valid patent. Often a suspicion exists that both the contractors and the persons claiming patents are increasing their incomes unduly at the cost of the people. The commission is of the opinion that if royalties must be paid, it will show better in the final analysis if such royalties are paid directly from the public treasury. When seeking the best table wines, sweet wines, and champagne, seek no further than the Anaheim Winery, opposite West Anaheim Southern Pacific depot. After visiting in Vancouver, B.

During Mr. Grim's absence the Ganahl Lumber Company yard here has been under the able management of F. C. Ganahl and he will for some time continue in his present position, and Mr. Grim will take a short rest from his regular duties and will see to other business interests here. RETURNS TO BUSINESS HERE Alfred Heying Buys Back Drug Store Purchased by J. B. Lounsberry Alfred Heying on Thursday bought back the drug store on West Center street recently purchased from Heying Bros. by J. B. Lounsberry. Mr. Lounsberry is as yet undecided as to his future place of business, but intends to seek a higher altitude. Mr. Heying will conduct the business under his own name, his brother, Oscar, having taken a position on the road for a large eastern wholesale drug company. He expects to keep his store at the head of the procession, and by courteous treatment and right prices will hold the trade which has been built up by Heying Bros. by several years of fair dealing.

While the faults of our newspapers are many, it must be said in behalf of American journalism that it stands for unselfish work for community betterment. A paper that permits personal spite to govern its policy cannot for long hold the confidence of its readers. In view of the fact that our country newspapers are constantly working for the interests of the community, there should be a growing disposition on the part of the citizens to co-operate with the newspaper by helping it to obtain news, and extending adequate support through subscription and advertising.
