GOVERNORS WILL CONTROL THE HIGHWAY FORTY-ONE EXECUTIVES HAVE ACCEPTED APPOINTMENTS ON THE NATIONAL BOARD ANAHEIM IS CONNECTED WITH THE BALANCE OF THE COUNTRY ACCORDING TO MAP A map showing the proposed national highway construction has just been received at this office. There are six main highways shown on the map—the northern, the central, the southern, the Mississippi and the Pacific. Anaheim is on the line from San Francisco to San Diego, via Los Angeles, being on one of the main trunk lines. The total length of the system is 50,-000 miles. The board of directors of the national highway association is composed of the governors of the states and territories. The council of governor is appointed for life. Appointments as members of it have been accepted by 42 of the present governors, the national highways association's council includes the governors of all except one of the territories, and several former governors whose terms have expired. The list of present governors of states and territories who are members of the council of governors is as follows: Governors O'Neal of Alabama, Hunter of Arizona, John D. McCarthy, James E.

RESCUED FROM EAGLE Mexican Baby Carried Off by Ferocious Bird at San Berdoo Saving the life of a 4-year-old Mexican boy from the clutches of a ferocious eagle,the same which residents say,carried off an infant to its nest in a crevice high up on a cliff years ago,Frank Wiest and a party of local men killed the huge bird and brought it back to this city as evidence of their feat.The party consisting of Wiest,S.F.Kelley,Dr.J.G.Ham,W.J.Hartzell,Geo.Kelley and Driver E.L.Dazell were passing the San Felipe ranch when they heard the screams of a child.Over on some rocks they were horror struck to see a huge bird scratching and plucking at a small boy who was trying to fight back with his bare hands.

Good roads everywhere is the slogan of the National Highway Association. It believes that the development of good roads can best be brought about by the national government's building and maintaining a system of 50,000 miles of national highways connecting all the states and principal cities of the Union. The association has published a map showing the tentative location of a system of national highways that would directly serve more than 60 per cent of the population of the United States. Already several good roads organizations have amalgamated with the National Highways Association. The National Old Trails Road Association and the Inter-Mountain Good Roads Association have become departments of the national body, and the Ohio Good Roads Federation, the Great White Way Association, the North Carolina Good Roads Association, and residents of the section where the bird was killed say that it had lived for years near the San Felipe ranch and had carried off young calves and sheep. Ten years ago it swooped down upon a ranch house and carried a baby away. The infant was rescued after a desperate climb to the nest and a strenuous fight with the bird. WALNUT CROP SHOWS INCREASE Output of State This Year Expected to Exceed 13,000 Tons According to estimates made by the directors of the Southern California Walnut Growers' Association the state output of walnuts this year will be 13.,000 tons. The directors are of the opinion that the crop will turn out heavier than last year. The eleven directors of the association met in Los Angeles. M. Nisson of Santa Ana and R. M. Hargrave of Orange were among the directors on hand with reports. The Orange county men stated that they believe that Orange county will have a better crop this year than last year. Orange county produces 40 per cent of the walnuts produced in California. It is a well known fact that the prospects for good prices this year are exceedingly favorable, since there is no hold-over crop in the state. However, the directors yesterday did not take the matter of price up. Reports from foreign countries are to be received before the price is discussed on October 1. Closer estimates of the California crop will be reported at that time also. The Orange News says: "There are less walnuts in storage in California today than there has been in ten year," declared R. M. Hargrave, president of the Richland Walnut Association, yesterday in discussing the walnut situation. Such was the scarcity of walnuts in the city of Los Angeles, itself actually in the walnut belt, that three cars of French walnuts were shipped into that city this summer. The shortage was due to the fact that last year's crop was cleaned up so that practically nothing was left and a quarter of the previous year's crop, which had been held over, was also taken.

A SMALL CONCESSION California Wine Growers Will Pay Only 74 Per Cent on Fortifying Brandy It is reported that the fight of the California wine men against the Pomerene amendment to the tariff bill, which taxes bradies used in fortifying sweet wines, $1.10 per gallon, has been partially successful, and the sub-committee of the Senate finance committee will soon report that the tax should be cut down to 74 cents or 50 cents per gallon. If this is done the Californians here fighting for the existence of the wine industry, against the attempt of Pomerene and other Democratic Senators to ruin it, hope to get a further reduction when the tariff bill goes to conference. The tax of 25 cents per gallon on spurious wines, made principally in Ohio, will be allowed to remain by the sub-committee, it was said. William Moore has brought suit against C. R. LaGourgue to compel him to carry out a trade in land. Moore was to deed land in San Diego for land in the northwest part of the county. The complaint alleges that LaGourgue declines to deed his ranch. A. M. Stron is attorney for the plaintiff. Such was the scarcity of walnuts in the city of Los Angeles, itself actually in the walnut belt, that three cars of French walnuts were shipped into that city this summer. The shortage was due to the fact that last year's crop was cleaned up so that practically nothing was left and a quarter of the previous year's crop, which had been held over, was also taken. Mr. Hargrave, although he makes no prediction, admits that he expects the walnut association to establish a good price this year. Last year it was 14 cents, and the year before it was 15 cents per pound. Efforts of the association men are now being directed toward securing an accurate estimate of the amount of the association's crop, so that a sound basis for fixing the price may be had. Mr. Hargrave states that the local association will receive growers who wish to join until September 20th. About that date the packing house will be prepared for the season's run. FALLS INTO BAY Mrs. Florence Seidel, of Santa Ana, a graduate of the Glenn Martin Aviation school, was seriously injured at Balboa Thursday while making a flight in a hydro-aeroplane for a moving picture concern. The young woman had completed her flight and was volplaning to the waters of the bay, when she suddenly lost control of her machine. It tilted sharply and in an effort to right it the young woman threw it too far the other way. She fell 150 feet and was pinned under the water by a rod which supports one of the wings. Rescuers hurried to the spot and released the aviatrix, who was unconscious for half an hour after being removed from the water. Two fishermen broke ashore and notified police. An ambulance on the coast and the local morgue. The body apparently about 50 smooth shaven and probably weighing 20 kilograms fail to reveal any claimed clothing and no records of a missile. There are a lot of Alamitos Bay occupants summer by people from CO. SUPERVISORS TRANSACTED BUSINESS SEGREGATED TERRITORY IN STANTON FORMED INTO MAGNOLIA VOTING PRECINCT BOUNDARIES OF FIRST AND FIFTH SUPERVISORAL DISTRICTS ARE CHANGED The board met in regular session Tuesday, September 2, all members and the clerk present. Demands on the County of Orange were allowed as read. The Myers bridge across the Santa Ana river near Huntington Beach was accepted. Supervisor Talbert was given permission to purchase a sprinkler for Westminster road district, at a cost in excess of $300. The board adjourned to September 3, at 10 A.M. The board met again September 3, all members and the clerk present. The petition of A. Nelson, et al., of Buena Park road district, to vacate a plaza in Grand avenue, was granted. The petition of C. S. Spencer, et al., for a railroad crossing between Santa Ana and Anaheim was granted, subject to the approval of the State Railroad Commission, the county agreeing to pay the cost of making the crossing, to-wit: $160. Credits were allowed prisoners as the dead man may have occupied one of these alone and has not yet been missed by friends and relatives. The coroner has been notified and the matter given into the hands of Constable Austin for investigation. From advices received from Seal Beach, the body may be that of Fred Phillips of Fullerton, a young man aged 22, who was drowned at Anaheim Landing last Tuesday. The discrepancy in age was due to the fact that the floater was not held as supposed, but the skin and hair on the skull had slipped off. In other ways the description tallies. FIGHTING FOR LOWER RATE Cities on Interurban Lines Demanding a Reduction in Fare The opening gun in the long expected campaign for lower passenger rates on the interurban lines in Southern California was fired Saturday when the Los Angeles Rate Association filed a complaint with the State Railroad Commission. More than two score cities and towns are joined together in the demand for a reasonable revision. A paragraph of the complaint is devoted to the interests of Santa Ana. It is alleged that the rates of fare now charged are in violation of section 13 of the Public Utilities act. Orange, Newport, Garden Grove and Olinda are alike interested. The present fare between Santa Ana and Los Angeles is alleged to be based on a distance of 33 miles, while the approximate distance from the city limits of Los Angeles to Santa Ana is 25 miles. Attorneys O. L. Horn, F. M. Steele and E. H. Jordan, who filed papers for the rate association, have made a long study of the rate question. It is submitted that a reasonable and The board met again September 3, all members and the clerk present. The petition of A. Nelson, et al., of Buena Park road district, to vacate a plaza in Grand avenue, was granted. The petition of C. S. Spencer, et al., for a railroad crossing between Santa Ana and Anaheim was granted, subject to the approval of the State Railroad Commission, the county agreeing to pay the cost of making the crossing, to-wit: $160. Credits were allowed prisoners as recommended by the jailor. It was ordered that M. J. Pickering be allowed $300 for his corner on the state highway route through La Habra valley. The application of John L. Wheeler to lay a water pipe across the road at the corner of his place near Villa Park was granted. The application of G. Ishiyama to lay a cement pipe line across the county road adjoining his property near Cypress was granted, subject to the approval of the highway engineer. The Orange County Highway Commission was ordered to close the Tustin-Orange road, Huntington Beach road and the Orangethorpe avenue road during construction work. The application of I. L. Collins to lay a pipe line across East Collins avenue was granted. The County Highway Commission was instructed to place macadam on the Fifth-street bridge. Tax sale No. 172 and deed of 1908 on lot 5, block 42, Newport Beach, was ordered cancelled, being an erroneous sale. It was ordered that M. Northcross be allowed $300 for the southwest corner of West Chapman and Main streets on the state highway route. All bids for the construction of the new county hospital were rejected and the clerk was directed to readvertise for bids. Bids to be opened September 16, at 11 A.M. The bids for heating and ventilating the county hospital were taken under advisement until September 16, at 11 A.M. The matter of receiving bids for the Tustin school district bonds was continued to October 8, at 10 A.M. The boundaries of the First and Fifth Supervisorial districts were changed and the Fourth ward of the city of Santa Ana was placed in the First Supervisoral district. A new precinct was created from the territory disincorporated from the city of Stanton and designated as Magnolia precinct, said precinct was taken from the Second Supervisorial district and placed in the Third Supervisor's office of the Public Utilities act. Orange, Newport, Garden Grove and Olinda are alike interested. The present fare between Santa Ana and Los Angeles is alleged to be based on a distance of 33 miles, while the approximate distance from the city limits of Los Angeles to Santa Ana is 25 miles. Attorneys O. L. Horn, F. M. Steele and E. H. Jordan, who filed papers for the rate association, have made a long study of the rate question. It is submitted that a reasonable and just charge between Santa Ana and Los Angeles would be 35 cents for one way and 50 cents for round trip tickets. A similar reduction would give Orange a rate of 40 cents a single trip and 55 cents for an excursion ticket. Near-by points would be proportionately reduced. All of the beach resorts nearest Los Angeles have joined the demand for a 25-cent round trip rate to the city and vice versa. Practically every point reached by the Pacific Electric lines is included. No estimate can yet be made of the number of war vessels that will gather at San Diego during the exposition, but already San Diego and the San Diego exposition officials are preparing to entertain the officers and men of the world's navies in a fitting manner, and to make of their coming here a great world event; the greatest of its kind ever known.

MAY BE PHILLIPS Body Found at Alamitos Bay Supposed to Be Fullerton Man Gustav Myers, a deaf mute, went to Alamitos Bay Sunday morning on a fishing trip and had just cast his line from the wharf when he saw a human body about 200 feet east of the pier. He dropped line and all and made a rush for shore, where he caused some excitement for a few moments in his efforts to tell his story. Two fishermen brought the body ashore and notified the Long Beach police. An ambulance was sent down the coast and the body taken to a local morgue. The body is clad only in a bathing suit and according to the undertaker has been in the water three days. The body is that of a man apparently about 50 years of age, smooth shaven and baldheaded and probably weighing 200 pounds. Investigation of the three local bath houses fail to reveal any discovery of unclaimed clothing and the police have no records of a missing man. There are a lot of small cottages at Alamitos Bay occupied during the summer by people from the city and...
