The Weekly Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION.....$1.50 Per Year Six Months.....$1.00 Three Months.....50 Cts. Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE, ROGER Y. WILLIAMS, ESQ. Undoubtedly the strongest man who ever aspired to office in this county is Roger Y. Williams, Esq., of Santa Ana, dean of the Orange county bar, who this week consented to permit the use of his name as a candidate for superior judge. Mr. Williams is not seeking the office; the office is seeking him. He has been asked by his many friends throughout the county for more than a year to become a candidate for this important office, and while he has steadfastly refused to accede to their wishes, he now feels himself impelled to yield to their desires, and will make a dignified and honorable effort to secure election. Should he be elected, and of this we think there exists little if any doubt, he will take the place at a pecuniary sacrifice to his own personal interest, for his legal practice nets him many times the amount of the salary attached to the office. It is larger than that of any other attorney who ever practiced law in the county. He has tried more cases, civil and criminal, than any other lawyer who ever practiced in our courts, and he has been uniformly successful. While he has tried more criminal cases than any other lawyer in the county, he has steadfastly refused to defend an accused man, unless he believed there existed probable ground of his innocence. Only recently he rejected a large fee from a criminally accused person because he had doubts of the increase in wealth and taxation the duties of the position of tax collector are much heavier than when he assumed office. During his term millions of dollars have been paid into his hands by the taxpayers, and every dollar of it has been religiously accounted for, his books always balancing to a penny. Auditing committees who have examined the books have always complimented him on his efficient system and capable work. Honesty and efficiency are the chief requisites of an important public official, and these he possesses to a marked degree. There is little doubt that he will receive an overwhelming endorsement at the polls. Mr. Lamb is a Republican without any qualifying frills added to the name. He has always advocated its principles and from the time when he sent Mr. Robinson of the pink undershirt into the discard, he has been the same genial and accommodating official, with an eye solely to the best interests of the county. He has handled millions of dollars as county tax collector, has accounted for every cent, and should be retained in office, if competency and accuracy account for anything. He has up to the present writing no opponent, and it is not thought likely any one will bob up to contest political honors with him. That this would be altogether useless, is known of all men, for Johnny Lamb is a sprinter when it comes to election, just as he is a faithful and energetic official while in office. He ought to receive a unanimous vote throughout the county and this we think will be his good fortune in the coming campaign. WHEN THE WAR IS OVER When this little two-bit war with Mexico is over, and it will be speedily over if the peace-loving propaganda at Washington will give the boys at the front half a chance, Mexico will be owing this nation and other foreign POLITICAL SNOW (By the Innocent) There hasn't been woken in a political way for except the holding of one of the Lincoln Republic which C. C. Chapman's Placentia orange grower for governor, which on the way, while right definition of Mr. Chapman successful business man property owner, does not hill of beans as a politic selection as the Republic bearer would be unwilling relevant, incompetent as the lawyers say. For facts are proven things and it is with illicans have to deal with grace, and the facts are minded man at all accusing conditions must Chapman has no more elected governor of Calif without claws climbing out of the box. And one of the afternoons is that while it posses his fault, but it certainly classed as his political he has antagonized a state Republican district by his obvious support of the answer in the field and dry forces in Anaconda which the wets won on and these men will not support Mr. Chapman but will go to some of his cherished ambition of chief executive. The element referring vocates of the open space base their opposition to the ground of his prosecution, but they say public pillorying of Aleged center of morals Orange county has caused his unfitness to handle with common fairness have none of him. It may seem rather Bre'r Chapman's boo- that of any other attorney who ever practiced law in the county. He has tried more cases, civil and criminal, than any other lawyer who ever practiced in our courts, and he has been uniformly successful. While he has tried more criminal cases than any other lawyer in the county, he has steadfastly refused to defend an accused man, unless he believed there existed probable ground of his innocence. Only recently he rejected a large fee from a criminally accused person because he had doubts of the man's claims to innocence. Were this more largely the practice of lawyers appearing in the courts generally it would redound not only to the ends of justice but to the interests of taxpayers throughout the county as well. In announcing his candidacy for superior judge, Mr. Williams is actuated by the same honorable ambition which animates every lawyer practicing before the bar, of rounding out his professional career with a term upon the superior bench. That he will fill the place efficiently and honorably in the event of his election there can be no particle of doubt, for he stands today as the most capable and most experienced lawyer in the county. Of calm, judicial temperament, possessing a clear insight into matters pertaining to his profession, and characterized by well-balanced and level-headed judgment, he is probably the best fitted man in the county to fill this important position. He has lived in what is now Orange county for 32 years, and has practiced in the local courts for 22 years. While the office which he seeks is non-political, he stands as a consistent and patriotic Republican, having voted the Republican ticket from the time he cast his first ballot many years ago. He has never been a political trimmer, nor has he changed his political coat, to advantage himself pecuniarily, as we have seen other men do; and it is to such men as he, and other patriotic men like him, that the credit for the fact that this county is stanchly Republican, is largely due. He has seen the time, as have many other old-line Republicans, when Los Angeles county, previous to the formation of Orange county, was a rock-ribbed Democratic county to the core. Yet he supported the principles of the party of protection and prosperity, and by voice and pen, as well as liberal contributions from his private purse, was instrumental in turning the tide of political affairs until both counties, as well as the other counties of Southern California, are soundly Republican from center to circumference. Had he and his associate Republicans gone over to the ful and energetic official while in office. He ought to receive a unanimous vote throughout the county and this we think will be his good fortune in the coming campaign. WHEN THE WAR IS OVER When this little two-bit war with Mexico is over, and it will be speedily over if the peace-loving propaganda at Washington will give the boys at the front half a chance, Mexico will be owing this nation and other foreign countries, for lives sacrificed and property destroyed, not much short of one billion dollars in gold coin. To the United States the largest part of this sum will, of course, be due, and so far as claims of other nations against Mexico are concerned, this country must, of course, guarantee payment, for the Monroe doctrine will not admit of occupation, on the part of any foreign power, of territory upon this hemisphere. How is Mexico to meet these demands? By cession of territory, of course. The United States will take Lower California and the northern states of Mexico, including Senora, Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Durango, Nuevo Leon and other territory. The Mexicans will be driven back to the extreme southern portion of the republic, and that nation will take rank with the other small fry Central American states. This will not be a war of conquest, but the United States will take over these lands as indemnity for the many outrages heaped upon American citizens in that land. Every American soldier whose blood stains the soil of Mexico, every dumb gun which falls by his side, a brave man's monument, leaves a sting in the American heart which must and shall be accounted for. Mexico must and shall pay. BUENA PARK ITEMS The "Deestrick Skule," to be staged in Masonic hall on Friday evening, May 15th, bids fair to be a drawing card. The ladies of the Mutual Aid Society, assisted by their friends and husbands, are bending every effort towards making it a grand success. We bespeak for them a full house at the ridiculously low price of 25 cents admission for adults, 15 cents for children. E. D. Kellenberger, of Los Angeles, and Miss Mildred Whitaker and her brother, Gerald, of Anaheim, were visitors at the Martin home in Orange-thorpe on Sunday. Mrs. Clyde Ritter, of Orangethorpe, entertained her class of young ladies on Friday last. The element referrences of the open space base their opposition to the ground of his prosecution but they say public pillorying of Aldered center of morale Orange county has ceased his unfitness to handle with common fairness have none of him. It may seem rather Bre' Chapman's book the game, but it is in kindness and to save critical advisers from damage and incidental rank and file of Rep-neck of the woods that won't go in this case: the greatest care shown in the selection of a corrector and sentiment crowd common sense. As suggested in this week, if Southern Californian candidate John D. Fredericks as out of the present abilities he stands here above the lot, and even head the ticket there sledding ahead. And again the "Goodest in the good road county has been aupassing of an ordinance visors regulating train highways in Orange; the provisions of which to arouse all the variations including surpressionishment, anger, rage and remorse; to say for the poor farmer; let the good roads were. The ordinance is to introduction in full herewith given to some sometimes argued that much law and too life is the specimen brick. "It shall be unlawful to ride, drive or premit to be ridden pelled; any vehicle over proved highways of orange; the weight of including load; shall eupon any inch in wheel; rooler or other permission is first on board of supervisors; Orange; as hereinafter. What do you think means that on a tire farm wagon, whichemately 1,800 pounds ed son of toll may be bale of alfalfa to feed he is detained at the deavoring to add an already over-buried it means that the fag wagons must not use while loaded, unless a condition be granted giving ilege. "It does beat h—grower the other day ordinance for the Republicans, when Los Angeles county, previous to the formation of Orange county, was a rock-ribbed Democratic county to the core. Yet he supported the principles of the party of protection and prosperity, and by voice and pen, as well as liberal contributions from his private purse, was instrumental in turning the tide of political affairs until both counties, as well as the other counties of Southern California, are soundly Republican from center to circumference. Had he and his associate Republicans gone over to the dominant party for self aggrandization, as we have seen other men do at a later time, this splendid result might not have been brought about. We have seen political turncoats and trimmers but this charge cannot be truthfully made against this accomplished and stout-hearted gentleman. We present his name to our readers as a fit candidate for this high and important office. He is richly entitled to the support of voters throughout the county in the fact that the office is seeking him, and not he the office. We have known him 30 years, and can truthfully say that there is not one blot nor blemish upon his personal character. Orange county will honor itself by honoring this man with election as superior judge. FOR TAX COLLECTOR, J. C. LAMB A public office is a public trust, and when an official has fulfilled that trust with efficiency, honesty and faithfulness his constituents usually desire to concede that he is entitled to continue in the service. J. C. Lamb has served as tax collector of Orange county, and the universal verdict of those whom he served is, "well done." He is a candidate for re-election, and finds his fences in excellent repair in every section of the county. Owing to the growth of population A special meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held on Tuesday evening for the purpose of considering the proposition of advertising. Five thousand copies of a descriptive booklet of Buena Park, Orange county and Southern California were ordered. The matter of paving the main street of the Park its full width was also under consideration. F. C. Spencer was in the county seat Monday on legal business. What do you think means that on the tire farm wagon, which ultimately 1,800 pounds ed son of toil may bale of alfalfa to feed he is detained at the deavoring to add and the already over-burden it means that the five wagons must not use while loaded, unless a tion be granted giving illege. "It does beat h—grower the other day ordinance for the thought these good re-by the ranchers, but they're goin' to do it the derned roads up us fellers a chance to side. The ordinance was at the people who o gines and other hear county roads, and if thing, but it might w amended to give th den farmer a chance e And while the good under discussion it re to mention the fact that building contractors time in carrying on he seems to be widespread over the manner in w their affairs, and last visors had to take a and direct payment o creditors to satisfy th These amounts were total due the contract the road and the back over to them and re protest, although pro stance will amount than a matter of form In justice to the co should be mentioned regarded as first class said to be short on and are therefore liar in such an embarrass they were last week. Another case in wh ors used a scythe to of dollars and cents v POLITICAL SNAPSHOTS (By the Innocent Bystander.) There hasn't been very much doing in a political way for the last week, except the holding of a love feast by a small minority of the membership of the Lincoln Republican Club at which C. C. Chapman, the millionaire Placentia orange grower, was endorsed for governor, which endorsement, by the way, while right enough as recognition of Mr. Chapman's worth as a successful business man and prominent property owner, doesn't amount to a hill of beans as a political asset, as his selection as the Republican standard bearer would be unwise, not to say irrelevant, incompetent and immaterial as the lawyers say. For facts are proverbially stubborn things and it is with facts the Republicans have to deal in this year of grace, and the facts are that any fair-minded man at all acquainted with existing conditions must admit that C. C. Chapman has no more show of being elected governor of California than a cat without claws would have of climbing out of the bottomless pit. And one of the aforementioned facts is that while it possibly may not be his fault, but it certainly might be classed as his political misfortune, that he has antagonized a large percentage of staunch Republicans in his immediate district by his alleged over zealous support of the anti-license side of the question in the fight between wet and dry forces in Anaheim recently in which the wets won out quite handily, and these men will not only refuse to support Mr. Chapman for governor, but will go to some lengths to defeat his cherished ambition to fill the position of chief executive of the state. The element referred to are not advocates of the open saloon and do not base their opposition to Chapman on the ground of his predeliction to prohibition, but they say his unwarranted public pillorying of Anaheim as the alleged center of moral degradation in Orange county has convinced them of his unfitness to handle public questions with common fairness and so they will have none of him. It may seem rather brutal to bat Bre'r Chapman's boomlet so early in from the court stenographer for Department Two, of the Superior Court came before them for audit and was cut squarely in two without one dissenting vote or word of protest from any member of the board. Before the second court was established, the supervisors were used to passing upon bills of somewhere about $15 or $16 a month for typewriting and stenography and so when the bill from the second justice mill came in for over five times that amount for a like period, the county lawmakers sat up and took notice with the result above noted. The bill was for services rendered in addition to the regular work of court reporter for the department, and in all probability was well within what it would have cost had the work been done by another, but the supervisors acted according to their lights and used the machete. Orange county is to have an armed guard on tap at the county court house, according to indications last week when the supervisors o. k.'d a bill for 20 rifles and ammunition on a requisition from Sheriff Ruddock. Whether there is any real demand for an additional armed force, or whether it is simply a precaution taken to provide for any emergency has not been worth took the postoffice when it was a very small institution and made of it during his incumbency one of the best managed in the state. At least that's what the official examiner assured Mr. Duckworth when the time came to turn over the institution to Mr. Duckworth's successor. As to Duckworth's successor, J. F. Ahlborn, there don't seem much the matter with him except that he's a Democrat, but as that's not an incurable malady there are still hopes in his case. Otherwise, from outward and seeming appearances, Mr. Ahlborn is a most courteous and affable gentleman, as easy of access as an open-faced Waterbury watch, and withal, as vouched for by his many friends, a good business man and a valued citizen of the Mother Colony. POMONA'S FARM The Pomona sewer farm has been owned by the city for the past 15 years or more. It was declared by many who opposed its establishment, a needless extravagance, but we believe there has been every year some profit from it. The city was fortunate in finding a location removed from human habitation, though the farm is so large that no un- support Mr. Chapman for governor, but will go to some lengths to defeat his cherished ambition to fill the position of chief executive of the state. The element referred to are not advocates of the open saloon and do not base their opposition to Chapman on the ground of his predeliction to prohibition, but they say his unwarranted public pillorying of Anaheim as the alleged center of moral degradation in Orange county has convinced them of his unfitness to handle public questions with common fairness and so they will have none of him. It may seem rather brutal to bat Breer Chapman's boomlet so early in the game, but it is intended as a real kindness and to save him and his political advisers from future embarrassment, and incidentally to remind the rank and file of Republicans in this neck of the woods that any old thing won't go in this campaign, but that the greatest care should be exercised in the selection of a candidate for governor and sentiment be not allowed to crowd common sense clear off the map. As suggested in this column last week, if Southern California names the Republican candidate for governor John D. Fredericks will be the man, as out of the present available possibilities he stands head and shoulders above the lot, and even with him to head the ticket there is hard enough sledding ahead. And again the "Good Roads." Interest in the good roads system of the county has been augmented by the supervisors regulating traffic over public highways in Orange county, some of the provisions of which are calculated to arouse all the varying human emotions including surprise, chagrin, astonishment, anger, regret, resentment and remorse, to say nothing of pity for the poor farmer, in whose interests the good roads were to be built. The ordinance is too voluminous for introduction in full, but one section is herewith given to prove the point sometimes argued that we have too much law and too little justice. Here is the specimen brick: "It shall be unlawful for any person to ride, drive or propel, or cause or permit to be ridden, driven or propelled, any vehicle over or upon the improved highways of the county of Orange, the weight of which vehicle, including load, shall exceed 700 pounds upon any inch in width of the tire, wheel, rooler or other object, unless permission is first obtained from the board of supervisors of the county of Orange, as hereinafter provided." What do you think of that? That means that on the ordinary 3½-inch tire farm wagon, which weighs approximately 1,800 pounds, the horny-handled son of toil may possibly carry a bale of alfalfa to feed his team while he is detained at the county seat endeavoring to add another plaster to the already over-burdened ranch, and it means that the five-inch tire beet wagons must not use the roads at all while loaded, unless a special dispensation be granted giving them the privilege. "It does beat h—ll," said one beet grower the other day when he read the ordinance for the first time. "We court reporter for the department, and in all probability was well within what it would have cost had the work been done by another, but the supervisors acted according to their lights and used the machete. Orange county is to have an armed guard on tap at the county court house, according to indications last week when the supervisors o. k'd a bill for 20 rifles and ammunition on a requisition from Sheriff Ruddock. Whether there is any real demand for an additional armed force, or whether it is simply a precaution taken to provide for any emergency has not been made public, but the guns and ammunition will be ready at all events and Sheriff Ruddock may be depended upon to have the men ready to use them. There has been some stir over a proposed attempt to organize a joint stock company to take over one of the daily newspapers, but so far nothing has been given out for publication, further than the general statement that the brand of Republicanism offered by the publication in question is considered so far below proof that it does not satisfy the requirements of the occasion, and an effort to provide a newspaper with a punch is accordingly being made. Postmaster L. L. Shaw, for years engaged in the newspaper business here, is said to be interested, and E. S. Wallace, General Case and others are also reported to be identified with the proposed new departure. "Col." D. C. Collier, the spectacular carpet knight of San Diego, evidently "has a mad" at former Congressman James C. Needham, and has made public announcement of his intention to make a personal fight against Needham should the latter become a candidate for Congress in the 11th district. Collier accuses Needham of opposing San Diego when it sought the endorsement of Congress for its exposition and is wroth accordingly. "I have no objection if Needham wants to run for governor," said Collier, "but I will do all I can to defeat him if he enters the race against Congressman Kettner." To all of which may be said that if Needham meets with no more serious opposition than can be put up by "Col." Collier, he may rest assured that he will not have a very hard row to hoe. For "Coi." Collier is known chiefly as an advertising artist and his reported outgiving agent Needham may have been a resort to attract public attention in Washington, where Collier was with the visiting Shriners when his pronounciamento was delivered. Notwithstanding the assaults on King Barleycorn by such doughy warriors as Jack London et al. and the other methods of warfare continually waged against the cup that cheers and also reddens the nose and renders the eyes rheumy, the annual report of the United Kingdom Alliance, whose mission it is to decrease the consumption of alcoholic liquors, makes the starting admission that the drink bill of the United Kingdom for the last year shows an increase of $25,000,000. The report suggests that the increase is probably due to increased business man and a valued citizen of the Mother Colony. POMONA'S FARM The Pomona sewer farm has been owned by the city for past 15 years or more. It was declared by many who opposed its establishment, a needless extravagance, but we believe there has been every year some profit from it. The city was fortunate in finding a location removed from human habitation, though the farm is so large that no unsanitary conditions have arisen. The principal crop is walnuts, but on the side there is raised hay, corn, and a bunch of hogs every year. The year's return from the hay field will be about 150 tons, or sufficient for all the horses employed in city street sprinkling or other city work. VALENCIAS ON MARKET Valencia oranges were one of the features of the market Saturday morning, being the first of the season to arrive. They came from the Whittier district and reports have it that shipping of the fruit will be on in full swing in another week or so. Reports on the crop are very favorable and a record-breaking season is at hand. The opening price on the Valencias was $3 per box. Navels are very plentiful and the market is showing a little firmness. The price on extra fancy pack is up to $2.25 a box after sticking at $2 for several months. The Eastern markets are showing an upward tendency. Lemons and grape fruit are unchanged. The demand for the latter has slackened a trifle with the arrival of berries on the market. Tangerines are not of very good quality any more and quotations are widely variant. The good product is holding at the old figure. UNFORTUNATE TOWN Vera Cruz knows what it is to be captured. Four times has the city fallen before foreign arms, once to Gen. Winfield Scott of the United States, once to France and the allies of 1861 and twice to buccaneers. Vera Cruz has suffered more than any other city in Mexico. As far back as 1683, when it was a very small town, it was captured by the buccaneers, whose force was equal to the entire army of many a Latin country. Pillage and murder reigned for days and then the pirates were driven out. Again in 1712 Laurent and Van Horn, buccaneers kings, seized the port and plundered it for ten days. Hundreds of Mexicans were killed and outrages of all sorts committed. From then until well along in nineteenth century the city had com- What do you think of that means that on the ordinary 3½-inch tire farm wagon, which weighs approximately 1,800 pounds, the horny-handled son of toll may possibly carry a bale of alfalfa to feed his team while he is detained at the county seat endeavoring to add another plaster to the already over-burdened ranch, and it means that the five-inch tire beet wagons must not use the roads at all while loaded, unless a special dispensation be granted giving them the privilege. "It does beat h—ll," said one beet grower the other day when he read the ordinance for the first time. "We thought these good roads were for use by the ranchers, but that's the way they're goin' to do it, they better turn the derned roads up on edge and give us fellers a chance to drive by on each side. The ordinance was seemingly aimed at the people who drive traction engines and other heavy loads over the county roads, and is so far a good thing, but it might with propriety be amended to give the common or garden farmer a chance for his alley. And while the good roads question is under discussion it might be in order to mention the fact that one firm of road building contractors is having a rocky time in carrying on business, as there seems to be widespread dissatisfaction over the manner in which they manage their affairs, and last week the supervisors had to take a hand in the game and direct payment of various sums to creditors to satisfy their claims. These amounts were taken out of the total due the contractors for work on the road and the balance was turned over to them and receipted for under protest, although protest in this instance will amount to nothing more than a matter of form. In justice to the contracting firm it should be mentioned that their work is regarded as first class, but they are said to be short on business acumen and are therefore liable to be caught in such an embarrassing situation as they were last week. Another case in which the supervisors used a scythe to settle a question of dollars and cents was when the bill Notwithstanding the assaults on King Barleycorn by such doughy warriors as Jack London et al. and the other methods of warfare continually waged against the cup that cheers and also reddens the nose and renders the eyes rheumy, the annual report of the United Kingdom Alliance, whose mission it is to decrease the consumption of alcoholic liquors, makes the startling admission that the drink bill of the United Kingdom for the last year shows an increase of $25,000,000. The report suggests that the increase is probably due to unprecedented prosperity, for the kingdom had never experienced a greater wage bill. The encouraging feature, according to the alliance, is a decrease shown in the per capita consumption, which attained its maximum during similar trade revivals in 1874 and 1899. A discouraging feature is the increase in the consumption of spirits, which leads with an increase of 1,267,-000 gallons. Beer is second with 1,002,-000 gallons, and wine third with 313,-000 gallons. The share of each individual in the United Kingdom in the drink bill for 1913 was $18, while the average for a family of five persons was $90. Since these figures do not allow for the boys and girls under 15 years of age and the total abstainers, it may be assumed that among the drinkers the average per capita expense for drinks is much higher than stated. Colonel J. W. Duckworth, for years postmaster at Anaheim, is enjoying a vacation these days, having turned over the office to his successor a short time ago. Duckworth will not long be idle, however, for he's not made of the material that rusts out, and it is safe betting that he'll be into some line of business before the beginning of another year. Mr. Duckworth is recognized as one of Anaheim's most prominent citizens and while he is an uncompromising Republican he has hosts of friends among the members of the other leading party who know him as a fair and above-board fighter who can take hard knocks as well as give them. Mr. Duck- From then until well along in nineteenth century the city had comparative peace. But at the outbreak of the war between this country and Mexico it was inevitable that movements of troops against Mexico City must begin with Vera Cruz. So on March 7, 1847, a fleet appeared bearing General Scott and a small army. While the ships bombarded the defenses troops were landed. They succeeded in capturing the city after a siege of 13 days, in which there was much bloodshed. From there Scott began his triumphant march to the capital, winning the victories at Cerro Gordo and Puebla on the way. A man who insisted on getting himself locked up bothered the jailers all day before they would let him in. The situation is unique because the authorities were fully aware of how many persons are breaking their necks to keep out of jail. At the same time they had a right to be alarmed by the precedent. Supposing every man who deserves to be imprisoned should voluntarily try to lock himself up? Every jail in the country would be overwhelmed, and keeping jail would be a worse job than being at the head of a family of English suffragettes. Born, to Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Smith, of Olinda, May 2, a boy. "Adventure of Mr. Cash." HERE IS A LITTLE STORY "Just a short narrative." Read it all! Last Monday Mr. Cash went to Los Angeles nosing around for Bargains for the ladies of Anaheim. Mr. Cash knew of an old Russian gentleman who made a business of importing hand-made crochet lace, made by the poor peasants of Russia. Mr. Cash had also received a quiet "tip" that the Russian merchant needed "money" alias "cash." So Mr. Cash went to see the old Russian who needed money alias cash and made him a CASH offer for all the Russian hand-made lace he had in stock, some 2500 YARDS IN ALL. Mr. Russian got mad and swore at Mr. Cash for making him such a ridiculous offer, but Mr. Cash merely smiled and showed Mr. Russian a hatful of "GOLD MONEY WITH EAGLES ON IT." MR. RUSSIAN SURRENDERED, and now Mr. Cash has the 2500 yards of hand-made lace in his store in Anaheim in the Opera House building, and offers it to the ladies at 25 cents on the dollar.
