BROWN AT TENT CROWD THAT GREETED HIM NOT SO LARGE AS DURING THE EARLIER MEETINGS A DAILY NEWSPAPER TO CONTINUE FIGHT AGAINST SALOONS up the lost cause after today's election and continue the fight until Anaheim becomes as pure as its neighbors. Mr. Brown took for his subject Saturday night the spicy and interesting story of King David and Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite. The accusation of the prophet Nathan to King David, "Thou art the man," was his text and by an ingenious argument he proved that the voter who failed to cast his ballot for the elimination of the saloons today was responsible for practically all the crimes committed in this community. His round-about manner of arriving at this conclusion resembled the story of the house that Jack built. The man who made himself drunk and committed a murder or some hideous crime was not responsi- getting the liquor tha commit the crime. "God pity the man nobody's business how he does. It is the busspring. Many a child a drunkard the day it world. It is born with petite for liquor. Any any regard for the w and the children borne not sell their conscipaltry dollars." Rev. Sutherland anson, Phillips and Coaquartette, made the hisinging a home-mad. "Get There Just the S On Wednesday after CROWD THAT GREETED HIM NOT SO LARGE AS DURING THE EARLIER MEETINGS A DAILY NEWSPAPER TO CONTINUE FIGHT AGAINST SALOONS OF ANAHEIM PROJECTED Evangelist Brown's second coming to Anaheim was not as triumphant as his first pilgrimage, the overwhelming crowds that filled his big tent to the bursting point being conspicuously absent. Still a good-sized audience greeted him on Friday and Saturday nights and punctuated his forcible remarks with occasional applause. When he entered the tent Friday evening he was greeted with the Chautauqua salute, the flutter of hundreds of white handkerchiefs. Two small children also met him and presented him with a couple of beautiful bouquets, decorated with colored ribbons. His text for the evening discourse was the much-quoted verse from Paul's second letter to Timothy: "I have fought the good fight; I have finished my course; I have kept the faith." There were many empty seats in the tent, but as Hon. D. D. Bowman was speaking to a large audience at the tent of the unregenerate on Lemon and Center streets at the same time, there were not enough people left to fill his big canvass. At the close of his lecture Saturday night Mr. Brown announced that a movement was on for the establishment of a daily prohibition newspaper in Anaheim. Sorrowfully he stated that both the papers in this city had elected to champion the cause of the saloons and it had been decided by leaders of the prohibition element that Anaheim needed a clean newspaper, one that would advocate the cause of righteousness and assist in driving liquor from this fair city. It was to be owned by a company of stockholders, and $10,000 was required for its establishment. Thirty per cent of this sum was to be paid in immediately and the balance in installments 30 or 60 days hence. One gentleman had already laid the foundation stone by subscribing $1,000, but who the gentleman was he did not state. The object of the establishment of this sheet is to take the wife of Uriah the Hittite. The accusation of the prophet Nathan to King David, "Thou art the man," was his text and by an ingenious argument he proved that the voter who failed to cast his ballot for the elimination of the saloons today was responsible for practically all the crimes committed in this community. His round-about manner of arriving at this conclusion resembled the story of the house that Jack built. The man who made himself drunk and committed a murder or some hideous crime was not responsible, it was the whisky forced him to do it. The saloon-keeper who sold him the whisky is a link in the chain; the government that gives him a license to sell fighting whisky is another, but the man or woman who votes to license the saloon is responsible for it all. The fool who gets crazy drunk and kills a man is merely an innocent victim. "Thou art the man," he said. "You vote to give the city officials authority to license saloons. The city clerk gives the saloon man a license to sell liquor. The saloon-keeper sells the liquor to the criminal. The liquor makes him drunk. While drunk he commits murder. You are responsible for that murder and one day you will have to stand before God and answer for it. There is blood on your hands and on your skirts. You who vote to license the liquor traffic are more responsible than the man who committed the crime. Mr. Brown stated that he had been accused of counseling on a previous occasion the purifying of Anaheim or burning it up. "The statement I made," said he, "was that if Anaheim cannot exist without the money derived from the sale of whisky, it ought to be burned down, the ashes plowed under, and the ground sowed to alfalfa or other useful crops. For a few paltry dollars you are wrecking homes and breaking hearts. The claim is made that it would hurt the business interests of Anaheim to close the saloons. Let business be damned. Some day, like Judas Iscariat, you will try to carry back the few pieces of silver you have received by licensing the saloons, but it will be eternally too late. On that day reparation cannot be made and excuses will not be accepted. People will vote to retain the $10,000 paltry dollars of revenue received from the liquor traffic in Anaheim because their conscience is dead. "If I voted to license saloons," said he, "and a drunken man committed a murder, I would feel more guilty than the murderer. I would be responsible for his world. It is born with petite for liquor. Any any regard for the w and the children born not sell their consci paltry dollars." Rev.

Sure! In this glorious country, in our beloved Southern California, every city, every town is fast growing and highly prosperous. Even those unfortunate places where prohibition has installed blind pigs and worse dives. Say, drys, why don't you tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and admit that by far the fastest growing, most prosperous and progressive cities are those where the sale of liquor is legalized by high license, regulated by stringent, proper police restrictions. Take as an example Venice, which was founded on a sand dune on July 4, 1905, and has grown out of nothing to a big, lively, prosperous community of nearly 8,000 inhabitants. And what about Los Angeles with a population of 200,000 in 1905 and nearly half a million people now, an increase of 300,000 in less than eight years. Los Angeles, by the way, defeated prohibition two years ago by a 3 to 1 majority. And, drys, is it not a fact that Santa Monica, which so foolishly adopted prohibition in 1900, repealed prohibition a few years later, because of the fact that real estate and rental values were demoralized, and business of every description (except, perhaps, blind pigs), was at a standstill, while taxes were going up unbearably? And right now the intelligent citizens of Santa Monica have administered a stinging rebuke to the prohibitionists by refusing to sign the petition calling for a special wet or dry election. Santa Monica, in 1900, made a fatal mistake by adopting prohibition. Santa Monica suffered severely, its merchants and taxpayers lost heavily, its citizens got tired of seeing their property values decrease, houses and stores standing empty, streets being deserted. Santa Monica promptly repealed prohibition. Santa Monica refuses to have another prohibition election. Santa Monica, dull and dead under prohibition, has in the last few years, since it has adopted safe, sane laws governing the liquor traffic, grown to a most prosperous city of nearly 14,000 population. People or Anaheim! Take an example of Santa Monica! Don't experiment with a measure as inconsistent, illogical and absurd as prohibition under the Wyllie option law. Let well enough alone, keep your closely related to the champion, Dolly Bloom; daughters of Imported Itchin Pearl 4th, closely related champion, Spotswood Daisy Pearl; and Royal Rival's Queen, by Imported Royal Rival.

J. H. Mackenzie of San Francisco has maintained this Guernsey herd for a unmber of years on his ranch at Yuba City. These cattle were carefully selected from some of the best herds in the East, including the Langwater herd of F. Lathrop Ames of North Easton, Mass. In the Mackenzie herd the university has acquired one of the best herds on the coast. The King of Medfield, formerly head of this herd and sire of most of the young animals in it, with one of his sons, sold last year to an Oregon breeder, have been consistent winners throughout the upper coast fair circuit this fall. The herd includes such cows as Langwater York Rose, by Imported Yeoman, champion at the last national dairy show; Questa Bloom Second, WANTED—Milch goat giving milk. Phone 436J3 or write H. L.
