ANOTHER SITE IS OFFERED FOR CITY PARK HALF A BLOCK IN THE DEUTSCH TRACT TENDERED TO THE TRUSTEES BOND ELECTION MAY BE CALLED IF VOTERS TAKE THE INITIATIVE Supplementary to the proposition which has been under consideration by the City Trustees for three weeks past relative to the purchase of a city hall and public park site, a representative of H. Deutsch appeared before the Board Thursday evening with an offer to transfer half a block on Lemon street to the city for the same purpose. The previous offer was submitted by Dr. H. A. Johnston. The property consists of one block with a frontage of 330 feet on Center street and cornering at Clementina. The price asked is $24,750. Mr. Deutsch offered half a block, 184x324 feet, running from Lemon to Clementina and fronting on Chartres street. The price asked is $13,325, and Mr. Deutsch offers to subscribe $3,000 toward the building of a city hall. A thirty-day option was granted the Board. Trustee Hamler favored the purchase of the site. The city's real estate, he said, which was yielding no income could be disposed of for $2,500. the city electrician to dispose of surplus power to customers outside the city was also introduced and will be passed next Thursday night. The Pacific Coast Manufacturing Company, which furnished the new engine for the power house some months ago, notified the Board by letter that the delinquencies in the engine would be remedied as soon as possible as new and heavier machinery to be substituted for the unsatisfactory parts was now being made and will shortly be installed. Incidentally the company wanted $2,000 advanced on account, but the request was tabled. SENTENCED AND MARRIED Heinrichs Gets Divorce, Probation and New Wife All in One Day A final decree of divorce, a sentence of 15 years in prison with probation attached, and a second wife were secured by Robert Heinrichs within a period of a few hours in the superior court one day last week. Heinrichs is a local bicycle dealer, and was arrested last March on a felony charge, his alleged victim being Freda Abraham, at that time 15 years old. Heinrichs was given a hearing before Justice Cox and held to answer to the superior court. Previously Heinrichs had secured an interlocutory decree from his first wife, Bessie, whom he had charged with improper conduct. The case was continued in the higher court until the divorce could become operative, and last week the decree was entered, after which Judge West sentenced Heinrichs to 15 years in prison, but putting him on probation. The conditions are that he shall report at regular intervals to the probation officer, and that he shall prove a good and faithful husband.

The price asked is $24,-750. Mr. Deutsch offered half a block, 184x324 feet, running from Lemon to Clementina and fronting on Chartres street. The price asked is $13,325, and Mr. Deutsch offers to subscribe $3,000 toward the building of a city hall. A thirty-day option was granted the Board. Trustee Hamler favored the purchase of the site. The city's real estate, he said, which was yielding no income, could be disposed of for $2,500, he could raise at least $5,000 more by private subscription, and the actual cost to the city would be less than $6,000. Trustee Gates, chairman of the finance committee, and "the watchdog of the treasury," objected to the expenditure. While the treasurer's report showed a comfortable surplusage, he thought it unwise to use it so early in the fiscal year, as urgent demands might be made later. The question of calling a bond election to provide the necessary funds was discussed but the Board thought the people should take the initiative in such a matter. The increase in taxable property during the year will enable the city to raise several thousand dollars by bonding. The question was laid over for further consideration. In response to the advertisement calling for bids for 1,500 barrels of road oil, three responses were received as follows: Union Oil Company...96c Bbl. Associated Oil Company...90c Bbl. Standard Oil Company...95c Bbl. These bids were for the grade of oil hitherto in use on the streets of Anaheim. Other bids for lighter oil were submitted but were not considered. The bid of the Associated company, which has been furnishing the city with oil in the past, was accepted. Their product comes from the Whittier and La Habra fields. Building permits were granted to the following petitioners: To E. Heinrich, addition to frame residence on Philadelphia street; cost $100. T. V. U. Simpson, galvanized iron garage on Philadelphia street; cost $100. To W. S. McFarlane, frame dwelling on Helena street; cost $500. To Geo. W. Hamler, galvanized iron garage on Clementina street; cost $75. To G. E. Chamberlain, frame structure on Olive street; cost $100. To R. Wisser, galvanized iron building on West Center street; cost $150. To William Schumacher, addition to brick building belonging to N. Hart on East Center street; cost $100.

The conditions are that he shall report at regular intervals to the probation officer, and that he shall prove a good and faithful husband to the girl he is alleged to have wronged. Following the decree the couple were married in the clerk's office by Justice Cox. Heinrichs gave his age as 25 and the girl as 16. GREAT WATER RESOURCES The great part which the water resources of California have had in the development of the state is evident throughout its history. In 1848 some repair work being done on a mill race near Georgetown, in Eldorado county, led to the discovery of gold, and this was followed by the rush of the "forty-niners," whose exploits have become classics in mining literature. The subsequent development of gold mining in California was due largely to the location of the deposits near the water necessary for hydraulicking. Moreover, the water available for irrigation and domestic supply has been the chief factor in the development of Southern California, which now has a population of over a million people. The growth of the extensive irrigation systems in the great interior valley of the state is bringing about the sub-division of this area into small ranches devoted to intensive farming, which affords almost limitless opportunities to the agriculturist. Again, an increased water supply for the city of San Francisco is urged as one of its greatest necessities, and more water for Los Angeles is to be brought from Owens Valley—a distance of more than 200 miles—at a cost of $23,000,000. Many torrential streams of California afford abundant power, the utilization of which in manufacturing enterprises and in transportation has been made possible by the progress of electric-power transmission during the last decade; today California probably leads the United States in the number and length of her power-transmission lines. Information concerning the quantity of water carried by California streams has therefore been and will continue to be a highly important factor in the development of all these resources, for the fundamental importance of stream-flow data is now so thoroughly recognized that it is almost impossible to To W. S. McFarlane, frame dwelling on Helena street; cost $500. To Geo. W. Hamler, galvanized iron garage on Clementina street; cost $75. To G. E. Chamberlain, frame structure on Olive street; cost $100. To R. Wisser, galvanized iron building on West Center street; cost $150. To William Schumacher, addition to brick building belonging to N. Hart on East Center street; cost $100. The bond of John Kellenberger, superintendent of streets, for $300, was submitted and approved. The sureties were J. W. Sackett and Phil Germann. T. J. F. Boege offered the city a strip of land five feet wide for the purpose of widening South street provided the Trustees would pay for a row of walnut trees, numbering about 30, at the rate of $8 per tree. The offer was accepted and the trees will be paid for when the strip is used. Ordinance No. 251, amending ordinance No. 170, passed August 22, 1905, providing a license tax for the various business concerns of the city was passed, also ordinance No. 252, amending the fire limit ordinance adopted March 13, 1906. Both are published in this issue of the Gazette. An ordinance prohibiting vendors of meats, vegetables, fruits, etc., on certain streets was introduced and will be passed upon at the next regular meeting. Center street, between Philadelphia and Clementina, Los Angeles street, between Chartres and Broadway, and Lemon street 150 feet each side of Center is the prohibited territory. This ordinance was drawn in deference to the wish of the Merchants' Association, the members of which object to peddlers standing for hours in front of their places of business. The Los Angeles banana man is the chief offender. Violation of the ordinance may mean $100 fine or 50 days in the city jail.

Information concerning the quantity of water carried by California streams has therefore been and will continue to be a highly important factor in the development of all these resources, for the fundamental importance of stream-flow data is now so thoroughly recognized that it is almost impossible to finance any project depending upon stream flow without presenting authentic records of flow covering a period of years. PASSING BAD CHECKS AGAIN Young Man on Parole Cashes Worthless Paper—Relatives Pay Bills Joseph Dierksen is "in bad" with Orange county peace officers again. A few weeks ago he was sentenced to seven years in the penitentiary for passing worthless checks, but sentence was suspended upon the young man's promise to reform. Dierksen was arrested on a warrant sworn to by County Auditor Lester, who cashed a $50 check for Dierksen, a former resident of Fullerton. His relatives came to his rescue, made his worthless paper good, and joined in the effort to get Dierksen out on probation. Dierksen was given probation, and stringent regulations were laid down for his conduct. He agreed to go to work, and stay at work at Fullerton. The court ordered that he drink no intoxicating drinks, keep no bad company, and altogether keep to the straight and narrow path. Friday Dierksen was brought up short a second time, and again it was for passing worthless checks. Two bad pieces of paper were produced, but relatives were Johnny-on-the-spot to pay them, and the episode ended with Dierksen's release.

Republicans in ROBBED OF THE RIGHT TO VOTE FOR TAFT DISFRANCHISED REPUBLICANS WILL SUPPORT WILSON FOR PRESIDENT LEAGUE FORMED TO USE ALL HONORABLE MEANS TO SECURE HIS ELECTION Editor Gazette: The Wilson Progressive Republican League of Southern California, is composed of men and women who have signed the following pledge: "Progressives Should All Work Together.—Fully determined to restore to the people of this country the control of their public affairs which has been usurped by machine politicians: Absolutely convinced that Woodrow Wilson is sincerely and honestly fighting with all true progressives, for the betterment of conditions and the uplift of humanity, and to give back to the people the control of their government; "We, the undersigned Republicans, do hereby join the Wilson National Progressive Republican League, and pledge ourselves to aid in electing Governor Woodrow Wilson president at the coming election, and thereafter to continue as progressive Republicans to make the fight within our party against all political bosses and special robbed of their right to vote for a Republican for president. We must vote for the nominee of the "Progressive" party, masquerading as a Republican in this state or for Woodrow Wilson, a Progressive Democrat whose record is one of constructive statesmanship. We have no other choice. We allow no "free trade" bogy to deceive us. That is now, as it has been for years, the capital of reactionary politicians trying to frighten the voters. We support Woodrow Wilson for what we know him to be and because he has dared to oppose the political bosses of his party, as La Follette has opposed those in the Republican party. We welcome the support of all who believe in the principles for which we stand and are ready to sign the pledge of the league. The time is short. Progressive Republicans must work hard and faithfully and must contribute time and money if California is to be saved from the disgrace which the Roosevelt party is prepared to heap upon her. California, Los Angeles and Orange counties, ought to be carried for Woodrow Wilson as a rebuke to the outrageous action of the Roosevelt leaders in this state and as an expression of the fact that our Progressivism is founded upon clear understanding of genuine Progressive principles. Wilson Progressive Republican League of Los Angeles County. William G. Yeo, Secretary. EXHIBIT OF CITRUS FRUITS San Diego Exposition to Have Orchard of Eight Hundred Trees The division of works of the San Diego exposition is grading and filling the site of the Southern California with an true progressives, for the betterment of conditions and the up-lift of humanity, and to give back to the people the control of their government; "We, the undersigned Republicans, do hereby join the Wilson National Progressive Republican League, and pledge ourselves to aid in electing Governor Woodrow Wilson president at the coming election, and thereafter to continue as progressive Republicans to make the fight within our party against all political bosses and special privilege interests." This league was organized under the leadership of Rudolph Spreckels, who is national president. The name of Rudolph Spreckels stands foremost among the men of California who have contributed money and time to the Progressive Republican movement of which Robert M. La Follette was, and now is, the great national leader. The entire state is indebted to Rudolph Spreckels for the success of the San Francisco graft prosecution. The state president of the league is Wm. E. Smythe, of San Diego, who led the campaign in California for La Follette before the spring primary. The officers of the league in Los Angeles county are without exception citizens of established and indisputable standing as identified with real concrete reform in national, state and city government. We are all Republicans and intend to remain so. This is true of our entire membership. No assumption of the name "Progressive," or any other false or misleading action on the part of former Republican leaders can influence us in that respect. The noble work of the La Follette Republicans and their Democratic allies in Congress, largely thwarted by Theodore Roosevelt when president, gained great headway after he went to Africa. The conditions they fought were largely those made public by Woodrow Wilson in his book entitled "Congressional Government, a Story of Government by Committee," published 27 years ago. Woodrow Wilson fought corrupt political conditions in New Jersey and was successful because he had studied the science of government and understood it as few men have studied or understood it, and because he was honestly determined to do his full duty. He was nominated for president in spite of the opposition of Democratic bosses and because his independence brought to him the overwhelming support of Bryan and other Progressives of his party. Roosevelt had it in his power at Chicago, to force the adoption of a Progressive Republican platform and that our Progressivism is founded upon clear understanding of genuine Progressive principles. Wilson Progressive Republican League of Los Angeles County. William G. Yeo, Secretary. EXHIBIT OF CITRUS FRUITS San Diego Exposition to Have Orchard of Eight Hundred Trees The division of works of the San Diego exposition is grading and filling the site of the Southern California counties building and has commenced work on the retaining walls. This building will conform to the Mission style of architecture which will be closely followed by all buildings of the exposition. The main exhibit of this section will be an orchard of 800 trees, representing 17 varieties of citrus fruit. These trees, selected as the finest from thousands of specimens, have been planted for some time and are already showing good growth. San Diego leads every city on the Pacific coast in percentage of increase in bank clearings for the month of September. Building permits approximate $8,000,000 so far for 1912. The six counties of San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Benito, Monterey and San Luis Obispo, comprising the Monterey Bay Counties League, decided to combine in an elaborate exhibit of their resources and products at the San Diego exposition in 1915, at a meeting of the league held in Watsonville, October 16th. The supervisors and exposition commissioners will visit San Diego after election for the purpose of looking over the grounds and selecting a site. Officials of the Cosmos steamship line have completed arrangements for a round-the-world service and in January will start new vessels on the run from Hamburg and Liverpool via the Mediterranean and Suez Canal and Far Eastern ports, covering until the Panama Canal is open the same route as the Blue Funnel steamers to the North Pacific coast. San Diego is included as a port of call in the new service. Among the general service buildings of the San Diego exposition is a field hospital fully equipped for service, with graduate nurses in constant attendance, a restaurant for the use of employees, and several houses fitted with shower baths. Thus far there has not been an accident on the grounds. Alameda county has asked for an option on a site at the San Diego exposition until January 1st. The north of bay counties are planning an elaborate exhibit. President D. C. Collier of the San Jersey and was successful because he had studied the science of government and understood it as few men have studied or understood it, and because he was honestly determined to do his full duty. He was nominated for president in spite of the opposition of Democratic bosses and because his independence brought to him the overwhelming support of Bryan and other Progressives of his party. Roosevelt had it in his power at Chicago, to force the adoption of a Progressive Republican platform and the nomination of a true Progressive candidate, but he did not use his influence to that end. He has not advocated any of the great reforms obtained by Progressives during recent years and he is not a true Progressive Republican today. His trust program is the program of the Steel Trust. His influence has not been exerted toward a reform in the tariff laws. His platform holds no real promise of benefit either to labor or to honest capital, and his performance in official life yields no such promise. Wilson, like La Follette, recognizes the existence of special privilege and fights it as the great evil of the day. Senator Works states of the leaders of the self-styled Progressive party in California that "by fraudulent affidavits they have gained control of the machinery of that party of which they are not members, in the interest of the candidate of another party." We condemn the action of the Roosevelt leaders in California, not only in their desertion of La Follette and the cause of true Progressive Republicanism but also in their recent disgraceful confiscation of the Republican party in this state. Roosevelt is not a Republican. He bolted the National Republican Convention and founded the so-called Progressive party, adopting for its emblem the Bull Moose of the Canadian woods. Republicans in California have been among the general service buildings of the San Diego exposition is a field hospital fully equipped for service, with graduate nurses in constant attendance, a restaurant for the use of employees, and several houses fitted with shower baths. Thus far there has not been an accident on the grounds. Alameda county has asked for an option on a site at the San Diego exposition until January 1st. The north of bay counties are planning an elaborate exhibit. President D. C. Collier of the San Diego exposition is personally escorting a party of noted Brazilians from New York to San Diego. The distinguished visitors include Dr. Eugenio Dabne, commissioner to the United States from the department of agriculture, industry and commerce of Brazil; Dr. Argolho, delegate from the State of Bahia and government lecturer; Count Candido Mendes de Almeida, director of Brazilian commercial museum, secretary and member of the Brazilian permanent exposition commission and owner of the Jornal de Brazil of Rio de Janerio, the most influential newspaper in Brazil. Dr. Dahne and Count Mandes are accompanied by their views. The party is expected in San Diego about the 1st of November. It will require 16,000 barrels of cement, 500 tons of steel, and 800,000 feet of lumber to build the great bridge over Cabrillo Canyon at the San Diego exposition. The east approach to the bridge is already finished and the forms for the first arch set up. Earl Ward, charged with the larceny of an automobile from P. J. Weisel's garage at Placentia, changed his plea from not guilty to guilty in the superior court and was given five years' probationary sentence by Judge West. He will go to work in a Placentia packing house and will try to be good. WANTED—Sewing by the day by a first-class dressmaker. Address 240 Claudina St. Phone 224J3. 9-26-4t ANAHEIM STEAM LAUNDRY J.
