GOVERNMENT IN TROUBLE WITH SQUATTERS DISTRICT FORESTER DUBOIS TELLS OF THE MANY ATTEMPTS AT SWINDLING MANY SETTLERS TRY TO GET IN UNDER THE MINING LAW That the government in its administration of the 19 California forest reserves has had more trouble during the past year with individuals and interests seeking control of public land under the guise of mining claims than with any other single class of claimants is the statement of District Forester DuBois of the forest service San Francisco office. "We have contested a number of alleged mining claims on California national forests," said Mr. DuBois, "the majority of which were obviously for the purpose of obtaining national forest land for some purpose other than authorized by the mining laws. Some of these claims were instituted in order to get title to land for townsite purposes, sites for summer cottages, land around watering places which gives control of sheep or cattle range, to land which controls mineral or medicinal springs, to valuable power sites, to rights-of-way for power transmission lines, to land valuable for its timber, and for sites for saloons and other enterprises not permitted upon national forests. "The effect of these contests on persons unacquainted with the facts has been to give them an idea that the forest service was rubbing it in on miners and the mining business, whereas nothing is further from the truth. Bona fide mining claims on national forests go to patent under the same laws that exist outside the for-profit nature." promote their interests, and the special requirements of their business were kept clearly in mind. It is only in unusual cases that the best interests of either the mine or the miner would be served by going contrary to the law or beyond the limits which the law has set. Even when the law works against the interest of single individuals its impartial enforcement is in the interest of the industry as a whole and of the pub"c. "'One of the objects of the national forests is provision for mining, on which so largely depends the prosperity of the west. That the forests are, in point of fact, fulfilling these objects is attested by the miners themselves. Contributions to mining journals have pointed out during the past few months that had not the national forest lands been reserved from private acquisition the field open to prospectors would even now be greatly diminished; that 'wildcatting'—generally recognized by miners as one of the severest handicaps under which the legitimate industry struggles—is curtailed by the refusal of patent to would-be vendors of worthless property; and that the forests protect miners against extortionate prices for local timber. "'In a word, it grows steadily more apparent that the national forests are not an incubus on the mining industry, but, on the contrary, an aid to it,—just as it has proved an aid to the best development of the stock industry on the forests, both in the interest of the industry itself and in the interest of the people who consume the product.'" TO UTILIZE CULL ORANGES AND LEMONS Santa Ana Will Have a Plant For This Purpose A plant to make use of cull lemons will be opened in Santa Ana next Monday, and within a year the plant will be enlarged to make use of cull oranges. Citrus associations of this county welcome the plant, and declare that it will better market conditions as well as provide a place where cull people will be employed up to handle orange plant will employ better and will be able to handle quantity. Probably few loads a day can be used. The company looks sociation because it co-business proposition stock subscription and it asks is a right to b. "We are especially plant established," said secretary and manager County Fruit Exchange will take the culls our peddlers. That means desirable grades can peddlers and the stu shipped to eastern raised by reason of will not have to ship grades. "The prices offered products company are cull lemons bring at less than $12.50 a ton. The last summer, but the usual. Take it year $12.50 is a satisfactory count ourselves fortunate that." From the cull lemon oil and lemon among the by-product changes, peel, marmalade products will be secured.

All the surveys for age system are commas as the bonds have been tracts will be let for Celery shipments a record and from the loading stations an load a day, it is said, to the Eastern market the celery, on accountally favorable season erably above the average. Santa Ana Will Have a Plant For This Purpose A plant to make use of cull lemons will be opened in Santa Ana next Monday, and within a year the plant will be enlarged to make use of cull oranges. Citrus associations of this county welcome the plant, and declare that it will better market conditions as well as provide a place where culls can be disposed of at a reasonable figure. W. W. Akers, representative of the International Fruit Products Company, leased a packing-house on the Santa Fe reservation, and by next Monday will have the by-product manufacturing machinery installed. During the first year, the company will handle cull lemons only; after that both lemons and oranges. The company has plants in Sicily, Cuba and Florida, and it is the aim of the company to handle culls from all over Southern California in the factory here. Through the California Fruit Exchange in Los Angeles, the various associations have been informed of the project. J. A. McFadden and D. E. Huff, president and secretary of the Orange County Fruit Exchange, showed Akers over this section and explained conditions to him here, with the result that the plant was established in this city. One reason given by Akers for selecting Santa Ana is its railroad facilities, and another the fact that this county is the greatest Valencia orange-growing section in the United States. Orange culls are to be paid for according to variety, $8 to $12.50 a ton, f.o.b., the highest price to be paid for Valencias. For lemon culls $12.50 a ton will be paid, and Akers' contracts at that price are now before various citrus fruit associations, not only in this county, but in Los Angeles and other counties. As a lemon by-product house, between 15 and 20 The effect of these contests on persons unacquainted with the facts has been to give them an idea that the forest service was rubbing it in miners and the mining business, whereas nothing is further from the truth. Dona fide mining claims on national forests go to patent under the same laws that exist outside the forests. Anyone is free to prospect for mineral deposits without fee or permit, provided he observes the ordinary regulations for campers in the way of care against fires, etc. The policy of the forest service has been and will be to put the land within the forests to its highest economic use. The discovery and development of mines is encouraged and provided for as comprehensively as the development of the other natural resources on the forests. "I mention this subject now because Forester H. S. Graves, in his annual report to the Secretary of Agriculture, just published defines the situation as it exists in California with absolute accuracy. Mr. Graves says in his report: "Attempted frauds under the mining laws are usually resorted to by interests in no way associated with mining, but the appeal to popular prejudice has been made in the name of the mining industry. While the relations of the forest service with the people who desire to develop the mineral resources of the country are increasingly cordial, at the same time the mining laws afford the greatest cloak for land frauds in the national forests and have been more commonly misused than the other laws because all land in the national forests is open to mineral exploration and entry." "As a rule," says Mr. Graves, 'insistence upon compliance with the law works not hardship but benefit to miners.

When fitted up to handle orange by-products, the plant will employ between 250 and 300, and will be able to handle an unlimited quantity. Probably from 30 to 50 carloads a day can be used. The company looks good to the association because it comes as a straight business proposition. It demands no stock subscription and no bonus. All it asks is a right to buy culls. "We are especially glad to see this plant established," said D. E. Huff, secretary and manager of the Orange County Fruit Exchange, "because it will take the culls out of the hands of peddlers. That means that our less desirable grades can then be sold to peddlers and the standard of grades shipped to eastern markets will be raised by reason of the fact that we will not have to ship the poorer grades. "The prices offered us by the by-products company are fair. Sometimes cull lemons bring a good deal more than $12.50 a ton. That was the case last summer, but those prices are unusual. Take it year in and year out, $12.50 is a satisfactory price, and we count ourselves fortunate in getting that." From the cull lemons citrate of lime, lemon oil and lemon peel are to be among the by-products, and from oranges, peel, marmalade, oil and other products will be secured. HUNTINGTON BEACH This city has voted unanimously in favor of a bond issue of $25,000 for the main trunk sewer lines. In spite of the very heavy rain, nearly one-half of the registered voters turned out and the vote at the end of the day stood 223 to 12. All the surveys for the new sewerage system are complete and as soon as the bonds have been engraved contracts will be let for construction. Celery shipments are the heaviest on record and from the Huntington Beach loading stations an average of a train load a day, it is said, is now being sent to the Eastern markets. The quality of the celery, on account of the exceptionally favorable seasons, is said considerably above the average. It is expect- IN FOR $5,000 Fraternal zeal cost Frank Machleb and W. B.

At the time of the arrest of Herbert Dyer, on a felony charge, Machleb and Webb, who are members of the same order, gave a $5,000 bond to insure his appearance before Justice Cox at Santa Ana. Dyer in return for their display of confidence secured Machleb and Webb to Vincent and his enemies was his arrest yesterday on a warrant charging him with assaulting and severely beating Charles Salisbury, a middle-aged man, last month. Salisbury was confined to his bed some time as a result of the affray which Vincent asserts was caused by the man offering an insult to his daughter. Vincent is being defended by an array of able Santa Ana counsel.

Celery shipments are the heaviest on record and from the Huntington Beach loading stations an average of a train load a day, it is said, is now being sent to the Eastern markets. The quality of the celery, on account of the exceptionally favorable seasons, is said considerably above the average. It is expected that between 1,700 and 2,000 carloads will be the production of the district. There is a heavy demand and prices are good. Records for all other crops will very likely be exceeded. The early rains allowed early plowing and planting on a larger acreage has been prepared for crop. Barley is already well out of the ground and preparations are being made for planting thousands of acres of lima beans. The Huntington Beach Company has ordered a survey and construction of a street near the west end of its properties running from Ocean avenue to the intersection with Garfield, one mile back. This new avenue makes direct access to the five-acre farm subdivision, the bulk of which has been sold out by the Sharer Investment Co. As showing the growth of the business of this city a comparative statement of the First National Bank, just issued, evidences a remarkable increase in the past three years. Its loans and discounts have increased from $51,000 to $118,000, and its deposits from $88,-000 to $165,000, and it has declared another annual dividend of 8 per cent besides placing a substantial sum in its surplus account which is now up to half its capital. William T. Newland, a wealthy rancher, is president and R. E. Graves cashier, and the increased business has resulted under their management of the bank's affairs.

At the time of the arrest of Herbert Dyer, on a felony charge, Machleb and Webb, who are members of the same order, gave a $5,000 bond to insure his appearance before Justice Cox at Santa Ana. Dyer in return for their display of confidence secured Machleb and Webb to the extent of giving them a second mortgage on a 20-acre ranch he owns east of town, after which generosity he disappeared. Although it was known that Dyer left town the evening of the 23rd, his wife, who is the mother of the 13-year-old girl whom Dyer is accused of mistreating, declared that he would put in an appearance Monday, but upon his failure to do so the bond was declared forfeited. The two bondsmen have appealed to the authorities for aid in locating Dyer. ORANGE COUNTY'S DISPLAY Orange county's exhibit at the Pasadena Tournament of Roses was one of the best. Charles Eygabroad was chairman and chief in command in constructing a float and providing suitable material for a display. In its account of the tournament a Los Angeles paper says: "Gathered about an immense orange mound made from hundreds of real oranges, some of the beautiful girls of Orange county gave evidence of the variety of products from that part of the state. The girls were dressed in white gowns, trimmed with yellow, and they carried white parasols. "During the progress of the parade, from beneath a pergola overrun with smilax, they tossed out samples of the finest oranges. Yellow and white chrysanthemums were used in harmonizing." BIG GAME The Edison Company is preparing to secure the power of the Santa Ana River in San Bernardino county. Men used to want the earth. To get it would no longer satisfy. They have its rivers, but that is not enough. They must have the sea. Its waves are breaking in wasted fury along 100,000 miles of barren shore line. In silent strength and urge the billows rise from unfathomed depths to bear upon the land in their unbridled triumph, their rage containing a lost force which might as well turn every wheel of commerce in the world. When man has found the way, this giant's vaporous breath will be turned to flame and each liquid drop of every sea's unrest be transmitted into the solidarity of magnificent achievement. ORANGE COUNTY VOTERS ARE ALIGNING WITH REPUBLICANS Early indications found in the registration of voters now in progress in this county are that the county will be overwhelmingly Republican. It appears that the majority of the voters who left the Republican party in the last campaign are now registering as Republicans, refusing to follow Governor Johnson into the Progressive party fold. Of 250 registrations filed the first of the week, Republicans number 148, Progressives 12, and the remainder are largely Democrats, with a sprinkling of Prohibitionists, Socialists and "decline to state." Out of 122 registrations received from Orange and Santa Ana, 64 were Republicans, 10 Progressives, 24 Democrats, 15 Prohibitionists, 1 Socialist, I Independent, 1 Federal and 6 declined to state.

Anaheim, the large majority were Republicans. There were 2 Progressive registrations in the West Anaheim books. One registration deputy in Orange who had taken 26 registrations, had found 24 Republicans and 2 declined to state. The failure of the Progressive party to accomplish anything in national politics has apparently convinced the mass of voters without aspirations to hold office that only by a united front can control be wrested from the Democrats, and that the sound economic doctrines pronounced by the Republican party can only prevail if the voters support that party. CONCERT BY PARENT TEACHERS A concert will be given by the Bierlich Trio, Thursday evening, January 8th, at 8 o'clock in the Fremont school auditorium under the auspices of the Loara Parent Teachers' Association. The trio is composed of Madame Elsa von Grose-Menasco, celloist, a graduate of the Royal Conservatory of Lipsic, Germany, and an instructor there for some time; Julius Bierlich, violinist, master of the People's Orchestra of Los Angeles, and Miss Grace Freeby, pianist, a composer of considerable note. This is a rare opportunity to hear these talented musicians. The price of admission is 25 cents. State Comptroller J. S. Chambers, through the district attorney's office, filed a petition Saturday asking for a special hearing in regard to an inheritance tax in the estate of J. C. Thomas, who died on November 18. It is alleged that contemplating death, Thomas deeded all his property, which was worth probably $40,000, to his wife and three children. They have been cited to show cause why an inheritance tax should not be paid.
