COUNTY DIVISION IN THE EARLY DAYS
RESIDENTS OF SOUTHERN PART OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY WANT NEW ORGANIZATION
DESCRIPTION OF SANTA ANA IN 1873—THREE HUNDRED INHABITANTS—FEW STORES
(From Gazette March 15, 1873)
County Division
The subject of county division, strongly agitated at each local election occurring in the past five years, has assumed in the minds of the citizens of Los Angeles county—living south of the New San Gabriel river—a paramount importance. Defeat has only moved them to renewed exertions in the future and during the coming campaign a more determined, a more united effort will undoubtedly be made to accomplish that which is considered so vitally necessary to this section. In the late presidential contest, the votes cast in Los Angeles county showed that the adherents of the two political parties were very nearly equal in numbers; a popular local question would possess great influence in deciding an election, and would give the victory to that party, whose nominees openly favored such movement. In a short while conventions will be held by each party to select from the aspirants for office suitable candidates.
To successfully attempt to divide the county, our forces cannot be marshalled too early. We must contest the question with its opponents, inch by inch. We must fight them in
LADIES’ AUXILIARY FOR Y. M. C. A. MEETS
Officers Elected and Constitution Adopted at Meeting Last Week
A number of ladies interested in the work for young men, met in this city on Wednesday of last week, and organized a Women’s Auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A. Robert J. Hamilton, county Y. M. C. A. secretary, was present, and lent his efforts to the formation of the auxiliary. Officers elected for the organization were: President, Mrs. Chas. Eygabroad; secretary, Miss Nettie Aubert; treasurer, Mrs. H. Calkins; vice-presidents, Mrs. H. E., Hand, Presbyterian church; Mrs. Holly, Christian church; Mrs. Foster, Methodist church; Mrs. F. W. Champion, Episcopal church; Mrs. W. A. Wallace, Scientist; Mrs. Wm. McLauchlin, at large. The following constitution was adopted for the organization:
ARTICLE I—NAME
This organization shall be known as the Women’s Auxiliary of the Young Men’s Christian Association of Anaheim.
ARTICLE II—OBJECT
The object of this organization shall be to co-operate with the Young Men’s Christian Association in its work of helping the boys and young men, and to aid it in every way possible to make its work more effective in this community.
ARTICLE III—MEMBERS
Any woman 18 years of age or older may become a member by a majority vote of the members present at any regular business meeting of the auxiliary.
ARTICLE IV—DUES
The annual dues shall be 50 cents a year, payable for the calendar year or any part thereof a person may be a member. These shall be payable to the treasurer during the month of
To successfully attempt to divide the county, our forces cannot be marshalled too early. We must contest the question with its opponents, inch by inch. We must fight them at the polls; we must fight them in the legislature, and if we fail we must try them again in 1875. Let the people of this section remember, however, that no petition—though unanimously signed, would have the same influence with the legislature as the election of a man whose avowed purpose in seeking the office was to effect a division of his county, and let them make their fight accordingly.
Santa Ana
There is nothing that so creates surprise in the minds of an Eastern visitor as the account told him of the magic-like growth of the small towns of the Southern Pacific coast. Even the Chicagoan, who has only a part of 25 years, incredulously receives the assertion that the thriving villages lying before him were but a few months before the feeding grounds for immense herds of cattle.
On Thursday we had occasion to visit the town of Santa Ana, lying six miles to the southeast, and were it not that four years ago in passing over the same ground we had actually seen the total absence of all signs of civilization, we too would have been incredulous when told its age. The land which it occupies was purchased by Messrs. Bush and Spurgeon in 1869 and laid out for a townsite. After devoting their whole energies to the successful accomplishments of their undertaking, that they now feel and exhibit a pardonable pride in the happy results of their labors is not surprising. In a town of between two and three hundred inhabitants, there are two large wholesale drygoods and grocery establishments under the management of Spurgeon & Bro., and Lewin & Herschfield, besides several smaller retail stores, blacksmith and carpenter shops, a first-class country hotel, and neat, unpretending church and school house, whilst beneath the shade of the old sycamore, the white rose-embowered cottages of the thrifty farmers dot the plain. To the north in emulation, the village of Richland has arisen on the east with a name typical
ARTICLE III—MEMBERS
Any woman 18 years of age or older may become a member by a majority vote of the members present at any regular business meeting of the auxiliary.
ARTICLE IV—DUES
The annual dues shall be 50 cents a year, payable for the calendar year or any part thereof a person may be a member. These shall be payable to the treasurer during the month of January.
ARTICLE V—MEETINGS
Meetings of the auxiliary shall be held monthly, except during the months of July and August. Five members shall constitute a quorum.
ARTICLE VI—OFFICERS
The officers shall be a president, a secretary, a treasurer, and a vice-president from each church of Anaheim represented in the membership. The first three officers shall be chosen from the membership of the Protestant Evangelical churches.
ARTICLE VII—METHODS OF WORK
The following are among the lines of work suggested for the auxiliary: Discussion of the moral, spiritual, physical, and mental needs of the boys of the association and the community; helping in the social work of the association, meetings for mothers; helping provide suppers, banquets, and refreshments for the association; helping supervise the building and see that it is kept home-like and attractive; and any other lines which may seem well to undertake.
ARTICLE VIII—AMENDMENTS
This constitution may be amended at any meeting by a three-fourths vote of the members present, provided the amendment has been presented at the previous meeting.
Another meeting was held yesterday at the Y. M. C. A. building on South Philadelphia street, when other business in regard to the opening of the building was taken up. The work of the Y. M. C. A. is always handicapped if no women's auxiliary is formed in conjunction with it, and the ladies of Anaheim are to be commended for their interest in the work and willingness to help in the good cause of work for young men. Any lady wishing to join the organization will be welcomed by the membership.

GREAT BASIN HAS MANY PROSPER-OUS FARMS
WIDE AREA OF DESERT LANDS BEING RECLAIMED BY IRRIGATION
GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHES TWO GREAT SYSTEMS FOR UTILIZING WATER
Between the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevada lies a great area of relatively low land, though portions of it are several thousand feet above sea level. This is designated by geographers as the Great Basin for the reason that few of its rivers flow beyond these mountain barriers, but lose themselves in the desert sands or empty into lakes whose waters are lost by evaporation.
Nearly all of the country included in the Great Basin is truly desert land, though the aspect of some parts has been radically changed by irrigation. Most of the land is exceedingly productive when water is supplied to it, as was demonstrated many years ago by the Mormons, who settled in Utah and founded a strong and prosperous community that has since grown and branched out in many directions.
Many thousand desert acres have been reclaimed in the Great Basin and are supporting prosperous homes and yielding large annual returns. The locations of two irrigation projects of the Government—the Truckee-Carson project, in Nevada, and the Strawberry Valley project, in Utah, are in this area. The new water supply for the city of Los Angeles is taken from the Resolution of Intention No. 100.
Resolved, by the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim:
Section 1. That the public interest and convenience require and that it is the intention of the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim to order the following street work to be done in said city, to-wit;
That the roadway of North Los Angeles street in said city, from the north property line of West Sycamore street produced easterly to the center line of North Los Angeles street, and from the north property line of East Sycamore street produced westerly to the center line of North Los Angeles street to the south property line of West North street produced easterly across North Los Angeles street, (excepting therefrom the intersection of North Los Angeles street and West Alberta and East Alberta streets and the westerly one-half of North Los Angeles street between the northerly and southerly lines of Wilhelmina street produced easterly to the center line of North Los Angeles street), be graded to the official grade and paved with hydraulic cement concrete base and with asphaltic wearing surface.
Said work shall be done in accordance with the plans, profiles and specifications thereof, which were adopted by the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim, by resolution, on the 10th day of April, 1913, which said plans and profiles numbered 1A are marked and designated "Plan of proposed improvements on North Los Angeles street, Anaheim, California," and on file in the office of the City Engineer of said City in the City Hall or said City, and which said specifications are marked and designated "Specifications No. 5. For the construction of street paving with hydraulic cement and broken stone, or screened gravel and asphalt wearing surface in the City of Anaheim, California," which said specifications are on fine in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Anaheim, in the City Hall in said City.
Section 2. It is hereby determined in pursuance of an act of the Legislature of the State of California, entitled "An act to provide for work in and upon streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks, and providing for the issuance and payment of street improvement bonds to represent certain assessments for the cost thereof and providing a method for the payment of such bonds," approved April 7, 1911, that bonds shall be issued to provide for work in and upon streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks, and providing for the issuance and payment of street improvement bonds to represent certain assessments for the cost thereof and providing a method for the payment of such bonds," approved April 7, 1911.
The Anaheim Gazette is designated as the newspaper printed, published and circulated in said City in which this Resolution of Intention shall be published.
The City Clerk of the City of Anaheim is hereby directed to publish this Resolution by two successive insertions in said newspaper, and to post the same for two days conspicuously on or near the chamber door of the Board of Trustees of the said City of Anaheim.
The Street Superintendent shall immediately cause to be conspicuously posted along the line of said contemplated work or improvement, and in front of all the property liable to be assessed, notice of the passage of this Resolution of Intention in the manner and form required by law.
All of the herein proposed work shall be done in pursuance to said act of the Legislature of the State of California, entitled "An act to provide for work in and upon streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks, and providing for the issuance and payment of street improvement bonds to represent certain assessments for the cost thereof and providing a method for the payment of such bonds," approved April 7, 1911.
The foregoing resolution was passed and adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Many thousand desert acres have been reclaimed in the Great Basin and are supporting prosperous homes and yielding large annual returns. The locations of two irrigation projects of the Government—the Truckee-Carson project, in Nevada, and the Strawberry Valley project, in Utah, are in this area. The new water supply for the city of Los Angeles is taken from the Great Basin through a long conduit, the conception and construction of which have been noteworthy features in recent engineering development. Along certain edges of the basin where it ascends to mountain crests like the Wasatch Range in Utah and the Sierra in California, there are many valuable sources of water power, some of which have been profitably developed.
Naturally in such a region, the economic development of which is so entirely dependent on its water resources, studies of the flow of streams can not fail to be of the utmost importance. During the last 20 years or more work of this kind has been carried on by the United States Geological Survey, and the results are published annually in Survey reports. Water-Supply Paper 310, just issued, covers the results of stream measurements made in the Great Basin in 1911. The work was done in all parts of the basin and the report, which contains 200 pages, includes records of flow obtained at 98 stations. It is made up largely of tables giving records of the flow of the streams at the gaging stations during the year and contains only such text as is necessary to explain the tables. The report is intended for use of engineers and others who desire information in regard to the quantity of water in the streams at various times in the year in connection with the utilization of the streams for various types of hydraulic construction.
Great Salt Lake is the largest of the water bodies of the Great Basin. It receives and disposes of the discharge, except that which is diverted for irrigation, of a number of rivers, the most important being the Bear, the Weber, and the Jordan. Other lakes are Owens Lake, which receives the flow from the Owens River basin; Walker Lake, into which is discharged the water from the Walker River basin; Carson Sink, including Humboldt Lake, into which flow the waters of Carson and Humboldt rivers; and Pyramid and Winnemucca lakes, which receive the discharge of Truckee River. All these lakes are located in Nevada except the Great Salt Lake, which is in municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks, and providing for the issuance and payment of street improvement bonds for represent certain assessments for the cost thereof and providing a method for the payment of such bonds," approved April 7, 1911.
The Anaheim Gazette is hereby designated as the newspaper printed, published and circulated in said City in which this Resolution of Intention shall be published.
The City Clerk of the City of Anaheim is hereby directed to publish this resolution by two successive insertions in said newspaper, and to post the same for two days conspicuously on or near the chamber door of the Board of Trustees of the said City of Anaheim.
The Street Superintendent shall immediately cause to be conspicuously posted along the line of said contemplated work or improvement, and in front of all the property liable to be assessed, notice of the passage of this Resolution of Intention in the manner and form required by law.
All of the herein proposed work shall be done in pursuance to said act of the Legislature of the State of California, entitled "An act to provide for work in and upon streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts, places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets, avenues, lanes, alleys, courts places and sidewalks within municipalities, and upon property and rights of way owned by municipalities, and for establishing and changing the grades of any such streets,avenues,lanes,alleys,courts,places和sidewalks,and providing fortheissuanceandpaymentofstreetimprovementbondsforrepresentcertainassessmentsfordothecostthereofandprovidingamethodfordaymentofsuchbonds,"approvedApril7,1911.
