CHAPMAN TALKS ON STAINLESS FLAG PRESIDENT OF THE ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE ADDRESSES LARGE AUDIENCE AT TENT ARGUES IN SUPPORT OF PROHIBITION, ADDING WILL INCREASE VALUES IN THE CITY It was an overflow audience that gathered at the big tent of the antis at the corner of Lemon and Broadway Sunday night to hear Rev. E. S. Chapman, of Los Angeles, president for the past 15 years of the Southern California Anti-Saloon League, deliver his lecture on "The Stainless Flag." In comparison with Mr. Brown, Chapman's address was exceedingly mild, and devoid of personal abuse. He said the pronunciation name of Anaheim flavored of whiskey and beer, and advised the people to see to it that no false registration was permitted or fraudu- printing offices had been offered the work but satisfactory responses were not secured from them. An offer for the printing of the paper was made by this office to the committee in charge of the work, but the latter preferred to have the work done in Santa Ana. Dr. Chapman was greeted on being introduced by a display of several hundred white handkerchiefs. This, presumably, was a personal tribute to him, and was emblematic of the stainless flag. Lieutenant Governor Wallace, who is considered one of the most brilliant orators in the state, is scheduled to speak at a great rally at the tent Sunday evening. Santa Ana, Fullerton, Orange and all other sections of the county are expected to send large delegations to hear the silver-tongued speaker from Los Angeles.

ANAHEIM GIRL MARRIES AN OLINDA MAN Miss Alma Yoern and George Bell United in Wedlock Wednesday Miss Alma, one of Anaheim's most popular society young ladies, and George Bell, an oil operator of Olinda, were married at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Yoern, the bride's parents, on Broadway, Wednesday last. The wedding was unostentatious, only a few relatives of the bride and groom being present. Rev. F. W. Mitchell of the Presbyterian church, preformed the ceremony. Mr. and Mrs. Bell left the same day for a six-weeks' tour of Eastern points and on their return will establish a home at Olinda where the groom is connected with one of the big oil companies. KEECH TURNED DOWN SUPERIOR JUDGESHIP Governor Offered Him Appointment But He Sidestepped and Ducked E. E. Keech was in town from Santa Ana on Saturday afternoon, attending a meeting of the water board, of which he is attorney. Mr. Keech has the distinction of having passed up the appointment as superior judge, Governor Johnson having tendered him that honor. His large and lucrative law practice forbade his accepting the appointment, although it is known the governor was most anxious for his acceptance. Mr. Keech recommended S. M. Davis for the place, and that gentleman had behind him also a number of strong Progressives who were and continue to be very close to the chief executive. Davis was turned down for Bill Thomas, who has not lived in Orange county long enough to have the foreign aroma blown out of his clothes. Mr. Keech wept as he contemplated Thomas' appointment, but being a close adherent of the Johnson propaganda he said he would say nothing and saw wood. Principal E. W.

"Voters have no right to give legal standing to a saloon. The supreme court of the United States has decided that the saloon has no right to citizenship. In a recent decision that body by a unanimous vote stated that by the abolition of the liquor traffic a community would gain a thousand fold in health, wealth and happiness." The cleaning up and purifying of Long Beach, Santa Ana, Fullerton and other points, said the doctor, makes Anaheim appear worse in comparison, and the very name of Anaheim flavors of whiskey and beer. The liquor traffic gives the town a bad name that it cannot afford to carry. It is your duty to vote right and you violate the most sacred obligation of citizenship if you vote to continue the liquor traffic. Dr. Chapman is a smooth and pleasant talker, although his argument was not particularly brilliant. eH was not offensive in his abuse. He displayed an American flag and intimated that it could only become stainless when the liquor traffic was completely eliminated from the dominions over which it floats. All of Orange county appears to be taking a vital interest in the fight now in progress in Anaheim. It was announced that tomorrow (Friday) will be Santa Ana day and several hundred persons from that city are expected to take possession of the tent and conduct services. They will bring their own orators and spielers and all that is required of Anaheim is a choir to furnish music. Next week dates will be arranged for the population of Fullerton, Orange and Garden Grove. It was also announced by Rev. F. W. Mitchell that a newspaper will be issued weekly during the campaign, the first issue appearing Wednesday. It is being printed at Santa Ana and Mr. Mitchell stated that the local foreign aroma blown out of his clothes. Mr. Keech wept as he contemplated Thomas' appointment, but being a close adherent of the Johnson propaganda he said he would say nothing and saw wood. Principal E. W. Hauck of the High School, attended an educational conference at Pomona College, Claremont, last Friday and Saturday. The special object of the conference was the discussion of the moral and religious education of high school and college students. The special dangers and temptations of young men and women of high-school age were pointed out by some of the speakers. An informal discussion leasting for several hours was had at each of the sessions to discuss ways and means of more effectively directing the young people during the formative period of their lives. The prevalence of extravagance was considered a great menace to boys and girls. The lack of purpose and earnestness was pointed out as another important source of danger. Dr. Parket, professor of Philosophy at Pomona College, emphasized the need of liberality, broadness and culture in education. He believed that the childhood training of many college students did not fit them for the greater outlook upon life afforded them in college. Dean E. C. Norton brought up the question as to how far a school should be expected to carry on the student who was showing himself to be below the normal in normal and intellectual stamina. Opinions varied from that of never letting go of a delinquent to that of getting rid immediately of those who did not enter into the spirit and ideals of the institution. Throughout the meeting there was a note of the necessity of public service on the part of educated men and women. The great opportunity brings the great obligations. Fifty-five thousand attendance at the reunion being a large percentage who participated in company with some foes Mr. Donahoe and wandered over the groves many points familiar to peering just as they danced with the exception than now soaked with the dead men and 36,000 chief alteration in the field is that 230 men been erected on it, many regimental associations spots where they did fighting and recording those who fell.

SEPTEMBER 25, 1913 DONAHOE VIEWS BATTLEFIELD AGAIN GETTYSBURG VETERAN RENEWS ACQUAINTANCESHIPS ON THE OLD CAMP GROUND MANY POINTS OF INTEREST REVIEWED AND OLD SCENES RECALLED DURING VISIT After a sojourn of three months in the East, most of the time of which was spent at Pittsburg, Captain L. R. Williams and P. H. Donahoe and wife have returned to their homes in Anaheim. Mr. and Mrs. Donahoe arrived last Monday, Captain Williams beating them home by about three weeks. Each was exceedingly glad to wash off the smoke and grime of the smoky city and sit down under the vine and fig tree in his own dooryard once more. Captain Williams and Mr. Donahoe, being veterans of the Civil War, girls of the town during the war, assembled on the rostrum and sang a number of songs that were popular on both sides 50 years ago. It was the greatest hit of the great reunion. The intolerable heat of the East prevented Mr. and Mrs. Donahoe from visiting Chatanooga where the national encampment of the G. A. R. was held last week. Mr. Donahoe also fought in that neighborhood, having been engaged in the battle of Lookout Mountain, but recollection of the grateful coolness of the Anaheim nights decided them to forego the trip to Tennessee and come home. CHILLIE FISHER IS NOW A BENEDICT Surprises His Friends by Taking a Wife Last Sunday Chas. H. Fisher surprised his many friends by slipping away Sunday evening for Fresno where he was married Monday to pretty Miss Hazel Cook. This announcement comes as a complete surprise, as only the intimate family knew of the anticipated wedding. After the ceremony the bridal couple left for San Francisco, where they will spend their honeymoon. KELLOGG TALKS ABOUT THE RIVER TELLS BOARD OF TRADE OF VAGARIES IN FORMER DAYS AND HOW HE CURBED IT SAYS SUPERVISORS HAVE AUTHORITY TO DECLARE CHANNEL WITHOUT DEEDS Henry Clay Kellogg, the best posted man on the topography of Orange county now living, visited the Anaheim Board of Trade Monday night and gave that body the benefit of his experiences in handling the erratic and sometimes turbulent Santa Ana river in early days. Mr. Kellogg was surveyor of Orange county for several years and was frequently called upon to figure out some method of confining the waters of the river to the natural channel. He related how in 1895 the After a sojourn of three months in the East, most of the time of which was spent at Pittsburg, Captain L. R. Williams and P. H. Donahoe and wife have returned to their homes in Anaheim. Mr. and Mrs. Donahoe arrived last Monday, Captain Williams beating them home by about three weeks. Each was exceedingly glad to wash off the smoke and grime of the smoky city and sit down under the vine and fig tree in his own dooryard once more. Captain Williams and Mr. Donahoe, being veterans of the Civil War, and moreover, Pennsylvania veterans, went East for the purpose of attending the reunion of old soldiers on July 2, 3 and 4 on the battlefield of Gettysburg, where 50 years before one of the greatest conflicts in all history took place. Mr. Donahoe was one of the 165,000 men who fought and bled on this historic ground, but Captain Williams' command, although a part of the army of the Potomac, when Meade marched his army northward, was left in the valley of the Shenandoah to help Sheridan discipline the obstreperous Virginians. Mr. Donahoe was a member of Knapp's independent battery which was recruited at Pittsburg. He enlisted on October 10, 1861, and the battery was assigned to Geary's division of the 12th corps, army of the Potomac. During the battle this battery, which was composed of 70 men manning six guns, was divided, half of it being planted on Culp's hill and the other half on Powers' hill. These positions the men held during the entire fight, but the command suffered heavy loss. The battle ground is maintained at public expense just as it was during the fight. Culp's hill and Powers' hill, said Mr. Donahoe, look precisely as they did on the eve of the battle with the exception of a growth of small trees which has been permitted to spring up at the base of Powers' hill. The breastworks are maintained and all the old guns in their original positions, those disabled during the battle having been replaced with exact reproductions. The entire ground is kept just as it appeared before the battle. The earthworks are all intact and everyone of the hundreds of guns placed in its original position. Mr. Donahoe met eight or ten of the old comrades who helped man the battery and still survive. Of the 70 men who enlisted at Pittsburg in October, 1861, for service in the battery but a small remnant is still living, many of them dying in battle and others subsequently succumbing to their wounds. Surprises His Friends by Taking a Wife Last Sunday Chas. H. Fisher surprised his many friends by slipping away Sunday evening for Fresno where he was married Monday to pretty Miss Hazel Cook. This announcement comes as a complete surprise, as only the intimate family knew of the anticipated wedding. After the ceremony the bridal couple left for San Francisco, where they will spend their honeymoon. Mr. Fisher is one of the best known young businessmen in the county. He is a members of the Fisher Wine Company. Miss Cook is a great favorite at Long Beach and Bay City, where she spends her summers. On their return from the north they will reside at 138 West Chartres street. AUTO TURNS TURTLE, ONE MAN KILLED Albuquerque Man's Head Smashed Near Orange Sunday Hurrying to finish a journey by automobile from Albuquerque, N. M., one man was killed and another injured Sunday when their automobile turned over three times in the road at West Orange, near the county farm. The dead man is Creed Childers, the injured W. Vanderluis, both of Albuquerque. Vanderluis was driving. He says his Overland 30 was going over forty miles an hour. Others who saw the accident say the speed was about sixty miles. Something broke, the machine swerved into the sand beside the oiled road, turned over and rolled over three times before it came to a stop across the street. Childers' head was crushed into an unrecognizable mass. Both men were clear of the automobile when it came to a stop. Vanderluis is in the hospital at Santa Ana with his body bruised all over, his knee strained and one foot deeply gashed. A few days ago, Vanderluis was in the Coleman-Blank garage at Albuquerque ready to start Glendora, Cal., to visit a brother. He said it would be a long trip and he would like company. Childers accordingly volunteered to go and did go. Vanderluis knew nothing of Childers except that he had recently separated from his wife at Albuquerque. Coroner Winbiger has wired to the garage at Albuquerque for information concerning Childers' relatives. Henry Clay Kellogg, the best posted man on the topography of Orange county now living, visited the Anaheim Board of Trade Monday night and gave that body the benefit of his experiences in handling the erratic and sometimes turbulent Santa Ana river in early days. Mr. Kellogg was surveyor of Orange county for several years and was frequently called upon to figure out some method of confining the waters of the river to the natural channel. He related how in 1895 the river overflowed and came down through the streets of Anaheim. It was running riot in certain sections of the town and the terrified citizens appealed to him to corral the stream and turn the waters back into the channel. With a large force of men and 25 teams he began work at 4 o'clock in the morning and within a day had the flood confined to its bed. He put in brush, eucalyptus poles and rock and turned the water back where it belonged. The supervisors appropriated $23,000 for river protection and Mr. Kellogg constructed wing dams and jetties by driving piling and connecting them with a network of wire. Remnants of the old work still remain but most of the piling has been cut off and hauled away, presumably for wood. Mr. Kellogg said the weakest point of the river's bank is about half a mile below the Olive bridge, and he gave the board some valuable points as to the best and cheapest way to protect the surrounding country. A channel 600 feet wide with a parking 250 feet in width would be ample space for the river, according to his view. If the dams were built above Anaheim and a system of wings constructed with the proper angle, there is no question that ample protection would be afforded unless an extraordinary flood occurred. The wings would turn the water back into the channel and it would be sufficiently wide to carry it off. Mr. Kellogg stated in his opinion based on previous knowledge of such matters that it was not necessary for the supervisors to secure deeds to the property before establishing a river channel. The river would establish its legal right after running in the channel for five years and the supervisors had authority to determine the banks and declare a sufficient bed for the stream without securing deeds. It was undoubtedly true and natural, he said, that the property owners would claim as much ground as possible and make the stream too narrow and he believed it was the duty of the supervisors to survey the channel and give its banks kept just as it appeared before the battle. The earthworks are all intact and everyone of the hundreds of guns placed in its original position. Mr. Donahoe met eight or ten of the old comrades who helped man the battery and still survive. Of the 70 men who enlisted at Pittsburg in October, 1861, for service in the battery but a small remnant is still living, many of them dying in battle and others subsequently succumbing to their wounds. Fifty-five thousand people were in attendance at the reunion, among them being a large percentage of Confederates who participated in the battle. In company with some of his former foes Mr. Donahoe and his comrades wandered over the ground recognizing many points familiar to them and appearing just as they did 50 years ago with the exception that the soil is not now soaked with the blood of 11,000 dead men and 36,000 wounded. The chief alteration in the appearance of the field is that 230 monuments have been erected on it, most of them by regimental associations marking the spots where they did their heaviest fighting and recording the names of those who fell. Mr. Donahoe met General E. Sickles, one of the heroes of Gettysburg, who planted his corps midway between the two lines of battle and refused assistance. Knapp's battery was sent across ten miles of plains after nightfall to reinforce him but he ordered them back, declaring he would hold the position until ice formed on the surface of the lower regions or lose a leg. He held the position until the end of the battle and also left a leg on the field. In one of the big pavilions where a banquet was being held by the blue and the gray veterans, six of the ladies of Gettysburg who were young A few days ago, Vanderluis was in the Coleman-Blank garage at Albuquerque ready to start for Glendora, Cal., to visit a brother.' He said it would be a long trip and he would like company. Childers accordingly volunteered to go and did go. Vanderluis knew nothing of Childers except that he had recently separated from his wife at Albuquerque. Coroner Winbiger has wired to the garage at Albuquerque for information concerning Childers' relatives. PIANO RECITAL BY YOUNG PUPIL Talented Young Anaheim Girl to Give Entertainment at M. E. Church Miss Dorothy Garrison, a pupil of Miss C. Adelaide Trowbridge, will give a piano recital at the Methodist Episcopal church, Saturday, September 27, at 4 o'clock. The public is invited. Her program will be played from memory and she will also play the accompaniments for Miss Sutherland who will sing. Dorothy is a child of much musical talent and gives promise of a bright future. This is the first of a series of public recitals which will be given by the Anaheim branch of the College of Music, University of Southern California. The second will be an evening program participated in by a large number of pupils and will be quite elaborate. The children will be in costume and a very novel entertainment is planned. The date will be announced later. Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Ames and Rev. and Mrs. Gillmor returned on Saturday morning from an enjoyable outing at Seal Beach. Supervisor Schumacher was present but declined to talk on the matter and refused to make any pledges for the Board of Supervisors. At the conclusion of Mr. Kellogg's talk the following resolution was introduced by J. Frederick Ahlborn and unanimously adopted: Whereas, We have been informed that the Board of Supervisors of the county of Orange, has power, according to law, to declare an official channel for the Santa Ana river within said county, and Whereas, It has become necessary to definitely locate certain proposed protection about to be erected along the banks of the Santa Ana river in connection with the proposed concrete bridge at Olive, and Whereas, the value of lands adjacent to said Santa Ana river is constantly increasing, and Whereas, If said channel of said Santa Ana river be officially established, then the owners of property adjacent to said channel could and would build such protection as they may find necessary in order to protect their property from overflow, and thus the matter of river protection would largely solve itself without cost to the county; therefore, be it Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the county of Orange be and ZETTE 25, 1913 NUMBER 52 TALKS AT THE RIVER TRADE OF VAGER DAYS AND PURBED IT ORS HAVE AU-CLARE CHAN-OUT DEEDS g, the best postedography of Orange visited the Ana-de Monday night the benefit of his calling the erraticulent Santa Ana Mr. Kellogg was county for severalently called upon method of confiningver to the naturalhow in 1895 the hereby are respectfully requested todeclare and establish an official channel for the Santa Ana river, betweenthe Santa Fe bridge north of Oliveand upper limits of the Newbert protection district. AHLBORN TALKS ON RIVER PROTECTION Wants Supervisors to Establish an Official Channel for Stream Editor Gazette: Kindly permit me to say a few words in your paper regarding the resolution passed by theAnaheim Board of Trade, and published in your report of the meeting,requesting the Board of Supervisors to declare an official channel for theSanta Ana river. If the request of the Board of Trade be granted, it will practically mean the solving of river protection alongthe banks of the Santa Ana from the Santa Fe bridge north to Olive, downto the Newbert protection district. Itwill also assure the building of theproposed $70,000 concrete bridgebetween Anaheim and Olive. According to information at hand onthis subject, the Board of Supervisors NORTHERNERS ARE USING OUR LABEL INFERIOR TOMATOES PACKED BY SAN FRANCISCO FIRM WITH ANAHEIM LABEL ON BOX CALIFORNIA VEGETABLE UNION PACKING 40 CARLOADS OF VEGETABLES THIS SEASON Trading upon the reputation of other people and reaping a profit therefrom may be considered justifyable byunprincipaled business men but a scheme whereby northern shipperswere attempting to get inferior tomatoes on the Eastern market by labelingthem Anaheim, Fullerton and Placentia product, was run to earth last weekand the outraged packers of thisregion will probably invoke the law toprotect themselves. It is a well known fact that the finest tomatoes in the world are grown in the best posted geography of Orange visited the Anaheim Monday night at the benefit of his calling the erraticulent Santa Ana Mr. Kellogg was county for several recently called upon method of confining river to the natural flow in 1895 the land came down of Anaheim.

The wings rear back into the bed be sufficiently in his opinion knowledge of such not necessary for secure deeds to the establishing a river would establish its timing in the channel the supervisors determine the banks client bed for the ing deeds. It was natural, he said, owners would claim possible and make law and he believed the supervisors to send give its banks declare an official channel for the Santa Ana river. If the request of the Board of Trade be granted, it will practically mean the solving of river protection along the banks of the Santa Ana from the Santa Fe bridge north to Olive, down to the Newbert protection district. It will also assure the building of the proposed $70,000 concrete bridge between Anaheim and Olive. According to information at hand on this subject, the Board of Supervisors can declare and set forth the boundaries of the river channel along the lines indicated by the flow of the stream. This can be done without the acquisition of title from the land owners, whose property lines may extend into the river bed. It is assumed that wherever the stream has flown for a period of five years or more, the channel is established. The question has been raised, whether the Board of Supervisors would be liable for damage caused by overflows where the channel has been officially declared. As the river practically establishes its own channel by reason afore mentioned, no damage can be claimed. If the above contentions relative to the rights and power of the Board of Supervisors to declare an official channel for the Santa Ana river are correct, then the Board of Supervisors should hasten to declare such channel at once. The establishment of an official channel for the river would permit the committee appointed by the Board of Trade to secure funds to erect such protection as may be found necessary to safeguard the approaches to the proposed $70,000 bridge mentioned above. The early erection of this bridge would be assured and the great highway leading from Riverside and San Bernardino county into northern Orange county to Los Angeles or the beaches would be open. With the establishment of an official channel, the matter of river protection would gradually solve itself, as each landowner along the river bed and those owning property not far away from the river could proceed in a systematic manner, to safeguard their land from overflow, without going into a protection district. Lands all along the river are constantly becoming more valuable, and those subject to overflow would only be too glad to know where the banks of the river are, so that they may protect not only their own, but also be assured that the neighbor cannot encroach on the river bed. I feel confident that the movement of river protection will grow to er people and reaping a profit therefrom may be considered justifyable by unprincipaled business men but a scheme whereby northern shippers were attempting to get inferior tomatoes on the Eastern market by labeling them Anaheim, Fullerton and Placentia product, was run to earth last week and the outraged packers of this region will probably invoke the law to protect themselves. It is a well known fact that the finest tomatoes in the world are grown in this region and shipped from the packing houses here. The houses at Anaheim, Fullerton and Placentia are all busy putting up the product of several hundred acres at the present time, and everything that goes into the East with those names printed upon the boxes is considered high grade goods. It came to the knowledge of our local shippers that a San Francisco firm was shipping tomatoes grown in the north with the words "Anaheim District," "Fullerton District" and "Placentia District" printed on the boxes. A representative of the packers secured a box of the vegetables and shipped it here last Thursday. An examination of the crate showed that the tomatoes were practically worthless and would have been rejected by any dealer unless he accepted them merely on the reputation of the label. Two baskets of twenty tomatoes each were unwrapped. In the first one six passable vegetables were found and fourteen rejected, being either rotten, immature or sunburned. The second one yielded seven good ones and thirteen which were absolutely worthless. This crate was put up at Sunnyvale, near San Francisco, and the lithographed label on the end announced that it came from the Fullerton district. Others, it is said, bear the Anaheim and Placentia labels. A car load of this inferior stuff, shipped to Oklahoma,'was rejected entire after examination Thursday and the packers here are highly indignant over the fact that such worthless vegetables are shipped to the Eastern markets bearing the label that always stands for high grade goods and commands the best prices. Legal authority has been consulted and steps will probably be taken to put an end to this practice if the law can reach the parties responsible for it. A representative of the Gazette visited the packing house of the California Vegetable Union on the Southern Pacific railroad after making an examination of the spurious article from the north for the purpose of comparison.

M'AULAY SUMMONED BY DEATH Old-Time Resident Dies Wednesday After a Long Illness After an illness extending over several years Mrs. Mary McAulay, wife of G. W. McAulay, died at the family home on Los Angeles street on Wednesday evening, September 17. Mrs. McAulay had just passed her 65th birthday. She was born in Pennsylvania and came to Anaheim 17 years ago. She leaves a husband and seven children; Ira, James, Arthur and Charles, and Mrs. Levi Mann, Mrs. Hamer and Mrs. S. J. Clemens. The funeral was held at the undertaking parlors of Backs & Terry, Rev. Statum, a Presbyterian minister of Fullerton, conducting the services. She was buried in Anaheim cemetery. The brick work on the Masonic building is completed and work on the cornice and roof has begun. The contractors have made remarkable progress on the building. A representative of the Gazette visited the packing house of the California Vegetable Union on the Southern Pacific railroad after making an examination of the spurious article from the north for the purpose of comparison. The plant here is under the management of Frank Meyer and a force of men and girls is engaged in wrapping and shipping the products from the Anaheim fields. Every tomato wrapped and boxed was a perfect specimen and in perfect condition, and the culls which were eliminated and thrown into a tank to be subsequently fed to hogs, were much superior to the vegetables packed for shipment by the northern concern. This house opened up for the season on the 15th and expects to continue until Christmas time or, possibly the first of the year. Forty or fifty carloads of first-class tomatoes will be shipped. At present the shipments are being made to Texas points. Within two weeks the house will begin supplying the New Orleans market and subsequently the great cities of the East will be the best market and receive the product. Nothing goes out of Anaheim onto the market but first grade stock, the second grade being sold for canning purposes and the culls fed to hogs. Mrs. W. H. Lawrence and Mrs. Hardin left on Saturday morning for Bowie, Arizona, where the latter will take up her residence with her grandson, W. H. Lawrence. Mrs. Hardin has rented her Pasadena home. Her grand-daughter, Mrs. Wilmot Mowrey, has gone with her son Lawrence to San Francisco where she will reside permanently.
