PAVING PLANS ADOPTED BY BOARD CITY TRUSTEES ACCEPT SPECIFICATIONS FOR PAVING WEST CENTER AND LEMON STS. RESIDENTS OF NORTH PHILADELPHIA ST. WANT WORK EXTENDED TO THAT THOROUGHFARE City Attorney Ames was armed with an appalling array of documents for consideration of the board when the city trustees assembled Thursday night. The first was a contract between E. R. Werdin and the city of Anaheim for the paving of Los Angeles street. It was accompanied by a $2,000 bond given by Mr. Werdin with Chas. Stansbury and E. A. Baker as sureties. The contract was accepted and the bond approved. Contract with C. E. Chamberlain for sewer connections and pipe laying on Lemon, Broadway and Stueckle avenue was held up because Mr. Chamberlain had been out of town and had neglected to get the necessary signatures on his bond. The plans and specifications of City Engineer Steward for paving Lemon and East Center street were adopted, and resolutions of intention No. 104 and 105 covering this work were passed. The Lemon-street plans stop at South street but Trustee Stark announced that parties living beyond were desirous of having the paving extended to Broad street, a quarter of a mile after that end of it. The committee was granted electric lights at the entrance gate, corner Chartres and North Philadelphia, and given permission to stretch streamers across the streets. A petition signed by Richard Melrose and others representing 612 feet of frontage on North Philadelphia street asking for paving of that thoroughfare was laid over for future consideration. A petition of numerous residents of Broadway praying for a 5-foot addition to the parking on that street was laid on the table with promptitude. Twenty cases were tried in Judge Howard's court during the past month and $48 in fines collected. Following is the report of the city officials covering July's business: Treasurer's Report Balance on hand $12,679.69 Collected 4,375.75 Total $17,155.44 Paid by warrants 7,951.12 Balance on hand $9,204.32 Library Fund On hand $437.20 Paid by warrants 81.80 Balance $355.40 Summary 1910 bond fund $1,269.69 General fund $9,204.32 Library 355.50 Imp.

He further that the car increased 150 per cent sugar output 2,400,000 years. Senator part were as follows: "In 1890 we produced United States 301 cane sugar and 5,000 sugar. Since that which has increases annually, has til it has reached The beet-sugar steadily each year 1,200,000,000 pounds increase during the ly 14,000,000 pounds that this industry protection for 100 succeeded in producing as we require. We The plans and specifications of City Engineer Steward for paving Lemon and East Center street were adopted, and resolutions of intention No. 104 and 105 covering this work were passed. The Lemon street plans stop at South street but Trustee Stark announced that parties living beyond were desirous of having the paving extended to Broad street, a quarter of a mile beyond. It was decided, after discussion to adopt the specifications and resolution and propose a concrete pavement for this block, being considerably cheaper and giving better satisfaction on a street so little traveled. The street paving of the intersections on these streets will cost the city about $13,700—$12,100 on Lemon and $1,600 on West Center. Ordinance No. 263, changing the name of the county road to Lincoln avenue was passed. Chairman Gates reported demands against the city receiving the financial committee's sanction aggregating $46,507.06. The bill of H. C. Dicker, an Orange plumber, amounting to $26, for work on the city's farm at Stanton, was returned to him. Building permits were granted to the following: To F. Busche, frame residence on Atchison street; cost $1,200. To Lillian Bareen, frame dwelling on Cypress street; cost $1,800. To W. D. McFarlane, frame dwelling on Santa Ana street; cost $50. To Mrs. Overhalzer, frame dwelling on Adele street; cost $1,000. To James Watmer, frame dwelling on Bush street; cost $200. To I. O. O. F. lodge, addition to brick on Center street; cost $500. Trustee Gates reported that he and City Engineer Steward had visited the owner of the opera house and that plans for the contemplated overhauling and strengthening of the building were complete and in the hands of Contractor Scott.

The additional freight from Los Angeles amounting to about 11 cents and the Associated company's oil containing a heavy per cent of asphaltum, that company was awarded the contract. This is the company that has been furnishing oil to the city heretofore. A deed from Mrs. C. Langenberger for a strip of ground widening Lemon and Sycamore streets was received and accepted. A. L. Lewis reported that B. Dauser offered the city the 600 feet of 1½ inch pipe connecting his residence and packing house with the pumping plant at the Anaheim Feed mills at half the original cost, which was in the neighborhood of 10 cents per foot. The proposition was accepted. F. K. Griswold, who owns a subdivision between North street and the sugar factory and maintains a private pumping plant for use of his tenants, wants to connect with the city mains and offered his system to the board, for $1. The matter was laid over as it will be necessary to secure a franchise from owners of private property before laying a main to his tract. B. T. Beale and others, representing the Loyal Order of Moose, wanted a blanket license covering all the concessions which will be here during the carnival which opens on Monday, September 1. All the shows and entertainments will be confined in an enclosure on the block east of the Central school building and an admission fee will be charged for entrance into the grounds. City Attorney Ames ruled that a circus license of $25 per day would cover the matter and the marshal was instructed The Santa Fe railway has taken ten acres of space at the San Diego exposition and will cover it with an exhibit of all Indian history, and arts and crafts possible to gather in that space. This exhibit will rival that of the government in scope and extent. It's foolish to talk about what a man should do when you know what he will do. You may fail, but you might try to love your neighbor as yourself. ANAHEIM GAZETTE SUGAR INDUSTRY MAKES HEAVY INCREASE SENATOR CATRON SAYS THAT BEET OUTPUT SHOWS 2,400 PER CENT GAIN MOST RAPIDLY DEVELOPING PRODUCT OF COUNTRY WILL BE DESTROYED BY FREE TRADE In a speech delivered before the Senate on August 1st, Senator Catron of New Mexico effectively disposed of the ridiculous claim that the removal of the tariff on imported sugar is justified by failure of the domestic industry to increase during the period of the protective tariff. He showed on the contrary that the cane sugar output has increased 150 per cent and the beet sugar output 2,400 per cent in the past 20 years. Senator Catron's remarks in part were as follows: "In 1890 we produced in continental United States 301,000,000 pounds of cane sugar and 5,000,000 pounds of beet sugar. Since that time the cane sugar, which has increased with some variations annually, has gained steadily until it has reached 728,000,000 pounds. The beet-sugar industry has advanced steadily each year until it has reached 1,200,000,000 pounds, the cane-sugar increase during the last year being nearly 14,000,000 pounds. It has been said that this industry has existed and had protection for 100 years and has not succeeded in producing as much sugar as we require. We respectfully submit NEW INDUSTRY BEING BUILT AT PLACENTIA Canning Factory For Preserving of Cull Oranges in Course of Construction Monday morning Contractors Christensen & Hanson began work on two structures to be occupied by the Placentia Canning Factory. The site for the buildings is adjoining the Santa Fe right of way at the Melrose avenue crossing, on the south side. The main building will be 30x50, with a large basement. A warehouse 28x30 will go up along the railway switch spur for convenience in unloading supplies and shipping the manufactured product. This plant, it is confidently believed, marks a new era in the citrus industry. In the animal packing industry the by-products from former waste products are the profit-makers. There is much waste in citrus growing. Private and state and national experts are experimenting and studying to devise ways and means to save this waste. Large appropriations to this end have been made by state and nation. The Placentia Canning Factory means that a partial solution at least, of this problem, has been made. The same process, discovered by long experiment, and practically the same machinery, that will be used in canning tomatoes two months in the year, will be employed in converting cull oranges into preserved fruit that will retain the flavor and color of the original fruit and keep for an indefinite period. Any fruit or vegetable preserved by this new process is superior in these qualities to that canned by the old methods. The establishment of this plant in Placentia is a decided achievement. The plant and the process are not a Since that time the cane sugar, which has increased with some variations annually, has gained steadily until it has reached 728,000,000 pounds. The beet-sugar industry has advanced steadily each year until it has reached 1,200,000,000 pounds, the cane-sugar increase during the last year being nearly 14,000,000 pounds. It has been said that this industry has existed and had protection for 100 years and has not succeeded in producing as much sugar as we require. We respectfully submit that an increase of nearly 150 per cent in the cane sugar industry in the last 20 years shows a very respectable increase, one that should not be deemed an industry which is lagging behind. "We also submit that an increase from 5,000,000 pounds of beet sugar to 1,200,000,000 pounds, an increase of 2,400 per cent in 20 years, is a very respectable showing. Each of these industries has increased much faster than the growth of population or the increase of general wealth in the country, there being such an increase in the last 20 years of the two. Can it be said that this is an industry that ought not to be fostered or ought not to be helped, when it is making such extraordinary strides toward prosperity and toward furnishing the wants of the whole people? Every pound of sugar we introduce from abroad we have to send away money to pay for it, which is loss to us. Every pound of sugar that we produce in the United States saves that much money from going abroad and retains it for circulation and for use in the general development and progress of our country. Germany, which is a large beet-sugar producing country, pays a bounty for every pound of sugar exported by her people. The beet-sugar industry has not existed in the United States in any appreciable degree more than 20 years, and, in fact, so that it would be felt in the market, more than 13 years." FOREST RANGER SMELLED SMOKE Short and Concise Statement on Carelessness of Campers Made by Fire Fighter The following is an extract from the diary of a forest ranger on the Tahoe national forest: "July 14, 1913. Riding along trail and smelled smoke; stopped to locate it. Campfire. The people had built it in the thick ground cover. They put it out with water and left it. The fire CHANGES MADE IN PARCEL POST RATES Weight of Package Limit Increased From 11 to 20 Pounds Postmasters have received instructions concerning the increase in the weight of parcel post packages, the same to be effective after August 15, said increase being from 11 to 20 pounds. The rate of postage for packages for local delivery will be 5 cents for the first pound and 1 cent for each additional 2 pounds. And in the first and second zones the rate will be 5 cents for the first pound and 1 cent for each additional pound. The new rates applied to the weights will make the cost of sending packages as follows: Local Weight Rate Zones 1 pound $0.05 $0.05 2 pounds .06 .06 3 pounds .06 .07 4 pounds .07 .08 5 pounds .07 .09 6 pounds .08 .10 7 pounds .08 .11 8 pounds .09 .12 9 pounds .09 .13 10 pounds .10 .14 11 pounds .10 .15 12 pounds .11 .16 13 pounds .11 .17 14 pounds .12 .18 15 pounds .12 .19 16 pounds .13 .20 17 pounds .13 .21 18 pounds .14 .22 19 pounds .14 .23 20 pounds .15 .24 From the above it will be seen that for 24 cents a 20 pound parcel may be sent to points in the second zone. Short and Concise Statement on Carelessness of Campers Made by Fire Fighter The following is an extract from the diary of a forest ranger on the Tahoe national forest: "July 14, 1913. Riding along trail and smelled smoke; stopped to locate it. Campfire. The people had built it in the thick ground cover. They put it out with water and left it. The fire smouldered along underneath and finally came to the surface three feet away. The wind caught it and it was just beginning to get husky when I found it." The foregoing statement contains a world of warning. It shows that too much care cannot be taken with campfires. The action of the campers in this instance of pouring water on the fire is most commendable, but they made the mistake of building a fire without first clearing away the thick ground cover. The San Francisco office of the United States Forest Service has been advised that on August 1 Acting Secretary of Agriculture Calloway approved a permit to the Oro Electric Corporation, of San Francisco, for its Lime Saddle Power Plant, on the Plumas national forest. The Miocene ditch which is used in connection with this plant is partly on public lands which were included within the national forests by the proclamation of July 28, 1910. The power plant was built in 1906 and was operating before the inclusion of the lands in a national forest. The Miocene ditch was constructed for mining purposes in 1876 and was also used for the purpose of supplying the town of Oroville with water before the power plant was built. From the above it will be seen that for 24 cents a 20 pound parcel may be sent to points in the second zone, which includes all towns not over 150 miles from Anaheim. Thus a 20 pound package may be sent to Riverside, Redlands, San Bernardino, San Diego or Santa Barbara for 24 cents. ORANGE CROP INSURANCE Growers Discuss Plans For Protection Against Loss From Frost Representatives of a number of insurance companies among which is said to be Lloyd's of London, are busy interviewing Redlands orange growers to determine what can be done to insure crops against freezing. A meeting to discuss the matter is to be held at the Y. M. C. A. What the insurance men want to do is only to insure crops where the owners provide a system of orchard heating, but A. Gregory, president of the Mutual Orange Distributors, and other orange growers, says that is equivalent to no insurance at all. If the growers go to the expense of providing orchard heating systems they do not want to pay for insurance in addition. However, there is hope of working out a satisfactory solution. Sometimes the hired girl solves her own problem by getting married. Thursday, August 21 The First National Bank OF ANAHEIM United States Depository for the Postal Savings System Capital, $50,000.
