PHONE TOLLS TO BE THING OF THE PAST HOME COMPANY PREPARING TO CUT OUT ALL COUNTY SWITCHING CHARGES EXCHANGE OPENED AT GARDEN GROVE, GIVING ACCESS TO - NEW TERRITORY By opening a new telephone exchange at Garden Grove, the Home company this week announces that it will give this city free switching privileges to all subscribers in the new exchange. This territory will include Garden Grove, Westminster, Smelzer, Wintersburg and the peat land country. This is the first step in the promise of the Home company to cut out all county switching charges, and when the company establishes itself at Orange, which it hopes to do soon, its subscribers will be given free telephone service to all parts of Orange county. The company received a hearty endorsement by the Improvement Association at Garden Grove last year. company to furnish Garden Grove with telephone service, therefore, "Be it resolved, that we as business men and citizens of Garden Grove, since we have extended an invitation to the Home company to enter the field in Garden Grove and vicinity, and in order not to burden the Garden Grove citizens with the necessity of maintaining two telephone systems, do hereby agree to install the phones of the Home company. "Be if further resolved that the list of subscribers to the Home Telephone Company be published in the Garden Grove News." The meeting was good natured throughout, the representatives of the Sunset company maintaining that the entry of the Home company in the field meant two phone systems, as they were in the field and are there to stay. WITHSTAND RECALL ELECTION Huntington Beach Officials Come Through With Flying Colors The present city administration of Huntington Beach came through a recent recall election unshaken. City Trustee Seeley keeps his position on the city board, and City Marshal E. L. Vincent remains as the city's chief police officer. Seeley was opposed by David Stewart, a former city trustee. The vote in favor of Seeley and against his recall was 285, and the vote in favor of Stewart and in favor of Seeley's recall was... This territory will include Garden Grove, Westminster, Smelzer, Wintersburg and the peat land country. This is the first step in the promise of the Home company to cut out all county switching charges, and when the company establishes itself at Orange, which it hopes to do soon, its subscribers will be given free telephone service to all parts of Orange county. The company received a hearty endorsement by the Improvement Association at Garden Grove last Tuesday evening. The meeting was largely attended, and representatives of both companies were present to urge their claims upon the citizens. H. A. Lake, president of the Association, called the meeting to order and asked J. T. McElree to state the conditions existing in regard to the two companies. After reciting the numerous vain efforts that had been made to get better service from the Sunset company, Mr. McElree said the Home company had been invited to enter the field, and the people who were approached had almost unanimously subscribed for Home phones, including most of the Sunset subscribers. The sense of the meeting seemed to be for one phone system, preferably the one giving the best service. After some discussion J. A. Knapp offered the following resolution which was adopted without a dissenting vote, many, however, not voting: "Whereas, Garden Grove has had the poorest of telephone service in the past and whereas, we have extended an invitation to the Home Telephone Com- Through With Flying Colors The present city administration of Huntington Beach came through a recent recall election unshaken. City Trustee Seeley keeps his position on the city board, and City Marshal E. L. Vincent remains as the city's chief police officer. Seeley was opposed by David Stewart, a former city trustee. The vote in favor of Seeley and against his recall was 285, and the vote in favor of Stewart and in favor of Seeley's recall was 124, giving Seeley a majority of 161. City Marshal Vincent had a much closer call. He got 249 votes, and his opponent, John McDonald, got 170, giving Vincent a majority of 79, which is a big margin considering the bitter fight put up against him. Vincent's appointment as city marshal was largely responsible for the feeling against Seeley. Vincent was criticised for taking many of his criminal cases to Santa Ana for trial. The "Dakota bunch" planned a surprise on Mrs. Gertrude Foster at her home on Kroeger street last week to remind her that one more mile stone had been reached on her journey through life. The evening was spent with music and social intercourse. Ice cream and wafers were served. After showering Mrs. Foster with birthday cards and hearty congratulations, the guests departed for their several homes after spending a pleasant evening. Try Edmiston for Groceries. Good goods.

LEADS IN GOLD AND PETROLEUM OUTPUT CALIFORNIA OCCUPIES PROUD POSITION IN PRODUCTION OF MINERALS PASSES COLORADO IN YIELD OF YELLOW METAL—EXCEEDS ALL OTHER'S IN OIL The great volume of the mineral production of the United States shows tremendous increase during the last few years, and the wide distribution of the important minerals were indicated in a recent address by George Otis Smith, director of the United States Geological Survey. The twelve most important mineral products in the United States, in the order of value of annual output, were stated by Mr. Smith to be coal, iron, clay products, copper, petroleum, gold, stone, natural gas, cement, lead, silver and zinc. "For certain of these 'minerals,' he said "'the Geological Survey presents estimates of the supply from which the nation's needs are to be met. For others, especially clay products and cement, the question of the supply of raw material from which they are produced is of little moment compared with that of the availability of the fuels necessary for the process of manufacture. "Of nearly equal importance with the factor of abundance of these mineral resources is that of distribution. In the first place, the wide-spread distribution of the raw material makes possible an industrial nation in which every state has some share in the mineral production. Only four states had a mineral output last year valued at less than $1,000,000, and ten states had a production valued at over $50,000,000 each. Again, no state or section appears to have a monopoly of the min- PERSONAL MENTION Well Paid For The record price for citrus land hereabouts was paid by Wiggin & Mead, of whittier, for 5½ acres in East Whittier last week, $25,000, or nearly $5000 an acre. The grove from previous records will pay 15 to 18 per cent on the investment. E. W. Lawrence, who sold the land, purchased it two years ago for $19,000. To Stave Off Frost Senator Bauer was in town the first of the week from his extensive orange orchard on the east side. He is giving his ranch a thorough drenching, with a view of staving off any possible appearance of frost. The senator's idea is a good one. Keep your orchards well watered and you will be immune from frost, to a large extent at least. Uncle Woodrow Gene Wilson, traveling for a Los Angeles wholesale candy house, was in town this week taking orders and dispensing political plums to aspirants for office. Gene claims relationship with President-elect Wilson, at least he referred to that gentleman as Uncle Woodrow, and says applicants for office should see him before applying for endorsement elsewhere. A word to the wise is sufficient. Broke His Collarbone Walter Elliott, 5-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Elliott, of the east side, while assisting his mother at her household duties Saturday morning, slipped and fell down three steps into the cellar, breaking his right collarbone and sustaining a severe shaking up. A physician was called and the fracture reduced, and Walter is now ready to scrap any kid of his size and weight in the east country.

In the first place, the wide-spread distribution of the raw material makes possible an industrial nation in which every state has some share in the mineral production. Only four states had a mineral output last year valued at less than $1,000,000, and ten states had a production valued at over $50,000,000 each. Again, no state or section appears to have a monopoly of the mining industry. While Pennsylvania, with its total mineral produce more than one-fourth that of the whole country, leads in coal, cement and stone by large margins, another state, Minnesota, leads in iron ore; another, Arizona, in copper; another, Ohio, in clay products; California in petroleum; California in gold; Missouri in both lead and zinc; and Nevada in silver. Furthermore, the centers of production are ever shifting. “For instance, up to 1894 Pennsylvania was the leading state in the production of petroleum. In 1895 it was succeeded by Ohio. Ohio gave way to California in 1903. California gave way to Oklahoma in 1907 and resumed premiership in 1909, retaining it since that time. Both Illinois and Oklahoma exceeded the production of any of the Eastern states in 1907 and have continued to do so. For many years up to 1906 Montana was the principal producer of copper. In 1907 it gave away to Arizona, and in 1909 Arizona gave away to Montana. In 1910 and 1911 Arizona again held first place. In 1906 Idaho was the chief producer of lead. It gave away to Missouri in 1907, and the latter now contributes 45 per cent of the country’s total. Nevada, in the glory days of the Comstock lode, from 1873 to 1878, was the greatest silver producer in the world. When the Comstock declined, in the latter part of the last century, Nevada gave way as a silver producer, first to Colorado, and then to Montana, but became again the principal producer of silver in 1910. Ten years ago Colorado, the leading gold-producing state, produced over 60 per cent more than California, then second in rank. California’s proportion has been steadily increasing for ten years, and in 1911 the largest production of gold was from that state.” BURNHAM RETIRES FROM JOB Will Shortly Remove to Los Angeles to Reside W. H. Burnham, of Orange, member of the county highway commission, has resigned his office owing to ill health and his coming departure for Los Anthe cellar, breaking his right collarbone and sustaining a severe shaking up. A physician was called and the fracture reduced, and Walter is now ready to scrap any kid of his size and weight in the east country. Orange-Santa Ana Wedding Floyd Elliott and Miss Elva Mae Witt, of Santa Ana, were married in that place Thursday by Rev. J. A. Stevenson of the First Presbyterian church of Santa Ana. Miss Witt is a former resident of Orange and has many friends there and is well known in this city. Upon their return from a honeymoon tour to San Diego and near-by points, the couple will make their home in Santa Ana where Mr. Elliott has a position with the Griffith Lumber Company. Cup Presented Fred Kelly has been presented by a Los Angeles paper with a silver loving cup paid for by popular subscription in Los Angeles. A picture of Kelly is etched on one side of the cup and on the other is the inscription: “Tribute to Fred W. Kelly by the people of Los Angeles, given under the auspices of the Evening Herald for his victory on the Olympic Games;” also, “Winner of the 110-meter high hurdles. Time 15.1 seconds. Olympic Games, Stockholm, Sweden, 1912.” The cup is three-handed, ten inches high and nine inches across the bowl. Contest Decided Judge West last week decided the contest for letters of administration of the estate of Lucy J. Brown. Public Administrator Winbigler won. Winbigler, with Spencer and Mitchell as attorneys, applied as the nominee of Mabel Illo, who lives in the East, a granddaughter of the deceased. L. A. Evans applied as the nominee of C. L. Horton, of Orange, a grandson. The evidence showed that Horton has disposed of all of his interest in the estate. Letters were therefore issued to Winbigler. Tipton & Callor represented Evans. The income from the estate is $150 a year. Witness in Big Case W. A. Zimmerman, president of the Orange County Savings & Trust Co., started Tuesday for Cincinnati, Ohio, in response to a subpoena as a witness in the celebrated suit of the United States against Patterson and other officers of the National Cash Register Company. Zimmerman was connected with that company for a number of years, leaving it ten years ago. He is to testify as to methods of the company. The prosecution is on charges of violating the Sherman anti-trust law.

Burnham, of Orange, member of the county highway commission, has resigned his office owing to ill health and his coming departure for Los Angeles. At a conference with the commission the supervisors decided to sell the total issue of county highway bonds, $1,270,000 at one time instead of selling them in small parcels as was at first contemplated. Although it has been foreshadowed that Commissioner Burnham contemplated offering his resignation soon, it is understood no one has been so far as considered as his successor on the board, although there are probably many who would like the place. A successor for Mr. Burnham will be appointed by the board of supervisors on December 3. It is said there are a number of aspirants for the position. Art is long. Time is fleeting. So call at once and have those Xmas photos taken. Howard's Studio, 130 So.
