Voters in Anaheim, as well as elsewhere, registered their protest against the primary law by staying at home and refusing to vote at Tuesday's primary election. Out of a total registration of 1847 in this city only 936 votes were cast. Owing to the light vote some surprises occur. Only partial returns have been received but it is evident from the reports that J. M. Backs is defeated for recorder. W. B. Williams has swept every precinct in the county by a vote of almost 4 to 1 against his opponent, Parke Roper.

Burke has defeated H. V. Weisel for the assembly by a large majority. Sheriff Ruddock and C. E. Jackson are nominated and will be on the ballot at the general election. It was an off day for the progressives, Johnson's vote in Anaheim being only 106. Judge Howard defeated Fox for justice of the peace by 179 votes. Following is the vote by precincts as far as received.
Captain John D. Fredericks has swept the Southland with a mighty majority and will head the republican ticket in California this fall, with Eshelman as his running mate. The race between John M. Eshelman and Mrs. Williams for the lieutenant governorship is close, but the lady appears to have lost in the running. Captain Frederick's plurality it is estimated will reach 50,000. Knowland is probably nominated for United States Senator, but the contest between Shortridge and himself is close.

MORE TALESTOLD BY RETURNED TOURISTS
SIGHTS SEEN IN THE HOLY LAND DESCRIBED BY MR. AND MRS. HARTUNG
EGYPT, ALSO, ABDUDS IN THINGS OF INTEREST TO THE TRAVELER
Comprehensive descriptions of scenes and present day life in Palestine and the Holy Land, the cradle of mankind and birthplace of Christianity, are given by Mr. and Mrs. John Hartung, who spent considerable time visiting the many points of historical interest in that ancient land which the Lord gave to the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It was a land flowing with milk and honey in those days forty centuries ago, when the twelve tribes of Israel took possession of it, according to the Bible, but it lacks considerable of answering to that description at the present time, according to Mr. Hartung. It presents a barren and desert appearance generally, vegetation growing only under the river under the overhanging boughs and brought home some of its waters. There are places along he banks where zealots from foreign lands are baptized, believing the muddy waters of the Jordan possess especial qualities for washing away their sins. The Dead Sea, which receives the waters of the Jordan is 1300 feet below the level of the ocean. Its waters are so salt that no living thing, animal or vegetable can exist therein, hence its name. It is as restless as the ocean, said Mr. Hartung, and eternally moving. He gathered a number of pebbles from the water and brought them home.
Mr. Hartung was particularly impressed with the wonderful sights of Egypt, which country they visited before going to Palestine. In Egypt they saw two of the seven wonders of the world, the Pyramids and the Pharos of Alexandria. In this land also, between Cairo and Heliopolis, they visited the gigantic cycamore tree under which the holy family, consisting of Joseph, Mary and the infant Christ, stopped and resided after their flight to Egypt to escape the edict of Herod relative to the slaughter of the innocents. The well at the root of the tree, from which they procured water, is still in existence and supplies fresh water to the tourists.
On the banks of the Nile, on the site occupied four thousand years ago by the palace of Rameses the second, the Pharaoh who was afflicted with visitations of grasshoppers, lice, before the beginning of hostilities
SUGAR FACTORY SEES PROFIT IN OUTPUT
WAR IN EUROPE SAVES ANAHEIM PLANT FROM POSSIBLE LOSS THIS SEASON
750 TONS OF EXCELLENT BEETS BEING CONVERTED INTO SUGAR EACH DAY
It's an ill wind that blows nobody good, and from the misfortunes of others men sometimes reap a rich harvest. The destruction, or at least curtailment of the sugar industry of Germany, France and other European countries by the war that is devastating the continent, is working in the interest of this important industry in Orange county. In fact it has saved the industry from the blighting effects of the democratic tariff law, and will enable the plants to continue in business until a republican congress and administration repeals the inquisitive measure and restores a tariff that will enable our factories to compete with the cheap labor of foreign lands.
Why then be readily shows sugar in United States while more made in Germany Russia Austria France Italy...
the many points of the historical interest in that ancient land which the Lord gave to the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It was a land flowing with milk and honey in those days forty centuries ago, when the twelve tribes of Israel took possession of it, according to the Bible, but it lacks considerable of answering to that description at the present time, according to Mr. Hartung. It presents a barren and desert appearance generally, vegetation growing only under irrigation, and the towns and buildings reflect only the gray and faded colors of extreme age.
They landed in the Holy Land at Jaffa, in a ship from Port Sald. Jaffa is supposed to be a seaport but is so hemmed in by an interminable jumble of rocks that only small row boats can reach its harbor. All passengers are taken off in this manner and the boatman, on receiving his load and starting for the harbor, invariably begins, in a solemn and impressive manner, to chant a refrain, the burden of which is "Lord land us safely there." This he keeps repeating until the small craft is grounded on the sands of Jaffa.
Jaffa is the gateway to Jerusalem, and although there were many things of interest to travelers in the ancient town there were more to be seen farther inland. One of the things that most impressed Mr. Hartung was the magnificent oranges that grow in that vicinity. He considers them the best in the world, not outstanding the lack of facilities for cultivating and the primitive methods used in propagation. They spent two weeks in Jerusalem and made it a base from which to go forth on excursions and see the points made famous by holy writ. One of the impressive sights in Jerusalem was daily to be seen at the Wall of Tamentations. This wall is a portion of the great temple of Solomon, destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, the Babylonian. Here every day hundreds of people flock to kiss the stones and raise their voices in lamentation over the departed glories of Israel. The holy sepulchre, the stone structure where Christ lay entombed for three days, is one of the sights that always attracts the visitors, and over in Bethlehem, not far from Jerusalem, in the Church of the Nativity, is shown the manger in which he was born. This church is built on the site of the ancient khan, the manger being within the church. The tomb of Lazarus, whom Christ restored to life after he had been dead stopped and resided after their flight to Egypt to escape the edict of Herod relative to the slaughter of the innocents. The well at the root of the tree, from which they procured water, is still in existence and supplies fresh water to the tourists.
On the banks of the Nile, on the site occupied four thousand years ago by the palace of Rameses the second, the Pharoah who was afflicted with visitations of grasshoppers, lice, frogs and other uncomfortable things at the behest of Moses, now stands a splendid harem where the numerous wives of the dignitaries of the Mohammedan world gather for an annual outing. Visitors are admitted—that is visitors of the feminine gender, but men are barred. Mr. Hartung did not understand this prohibition and almost got beyond the sacred portal before he was stopped. Mrs. Hartung, in company with other ladies, went through the splendid structure.
Cairo, according to Mr. Hartung, is a wonderful city, and the entire land of Egypt presents a contrast to its ancient neighbor on the east in the way of development. The most beautiful residences in the world are standing, on the banks of the Nile in suburban Cairo. They are the homes of wealthy Arabs who are bringing into actual existence the imaginary tales of the Arabian Nights. In Cairo, also they saw two of the greatest things in the world. When told by their guide that he would take them to the world's finest hotel they thought he was joking, but discovered later that he was in earnest. It was the Hotel Hellopolis, in the suburbs of the city, and is said to have no equal. The Mosque el Azhar, or University of Cairo, also stands at the head of its class. It is the oldest seat of learning on earth, and also the largest, the number of pupils registered there numbering more than ten thousand. It is the educational center of the Mohammedan religion. Mr. and Mrs. Hartung went through the vast institution and declare there is not a seat nor a desk in it. Teachers and pupils alike sit on the floor, the pupils learning by absorption from the harangue of the teacher, books and paper being unknown.
The Khodives' birthday occurred while they were in Cairo, and they had an opportunity of witnessing a display of beautiful Arabian horses. A parade through the streets was one of the features, and the Khedive's carriage countries by the continent, is working in the interest of this important industry in Orange county. In fact it has saved industry from the blight effects of the democratic tariff law, and will enable the plants to continue in business until a republican congress and administration repeals the iniquitous measure and restores a tariff that will enable our factories to compete with the cheap labor of foreign lands.
Before the beginning of hostilities price of sugar was so low that it required rigid economy, the discharge of many men, paring down all expenses, and the postponement of needed extensions on the part of the Anaheim Sugar factory to enable it to get through the season without a heavy loss, but sugar has almost doubled in price within a month, and there is not the slightest doubt that it will continue to advance until it reaches a figure never equalled since the civil war, half a century ago. There is little excuse for the extraordinary rise in this country as there is an ample supply in the United States, Hawaii, and the West Indies for our demands, for a year, but the speculators are getting control of the visible supply and holding it for advanced prices. The United States produces only 25 per cent of the sugar consumed in this country, but with the supply on hand, with this year's product and our regular importations from Hawaii, Porto Rico and Cuba, there is sufficient in sight to supply the demand for a year. It is predicted that the price will reach 10 cents at least, from the factories before another year.
While the high prices will put California sugar factories on the road to prosperity and enable them to pay good dividends this year there is a probability that the war will cripple them in the matter of seed. America does not produce sugar beet seed, the principal supply, coming from Germany and Russia, and with war likely to devastate these countries there is much uncertainty as to future. The Anaheim factory was so fortunate as to secure enough for this winter's planting, some of it being purchased at five times usual price, but where it will come from following year is a problem. Even should the war end soon, there is a probability that the industry will be crippled and supply curtailed. There is only one season's supply ahead at any time consequently one's failure is disastrous.
The statement that the Anaheim
raise their voices in lamentation over the departed glories of Israel. The holy sepulchre, the stone structure where Christ lay entombbed for three days, is one of the sights that always attracts the visitors, and over in Bethlehem, not far from Jerusalem, in the Church of the Nativity, is shown the manger in which he was born. This church is built on the site of the ancient khan, the manger being within the church. The tomb of Lazarus, whom Christ restored to life after he had been dead three days, is also one of the interesting objects to be seen. It is on the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. The tomb of Tabitha is one of the favorite show places, also the burial place of King David, and even the grave of Rachael, the favorite wife of Jacob, who died in Ephraeth on the journey to Canaan, is pointed out. Jericho, thirty miles from Jerusalem, is an interesting point for travelers. Remnants of the walls of the ancient city, which Joshua blow down with rams' horns, still exist. Jacob's well, that ancient pool of water, on the road from Jerusalem to Jericho, still flows, and all tourists partake of its waters. Midway between these cities is situated the Good Samaritan Inn, built five hundred years ago as a charitable institution for the entertainment of travelers on the highway and their cattle. No fee was charged guests at the hotel in those days, but it is different now. It is still feeding travelers and their horses, but has ceased to be the Good Samaritan which ministered to the needs of strangers without pay.
The river Jordan and the Dead Sea were objects of especial interest to the tourists because of their historical associations. The banks of the Jordan are fringed with a growth of trees and greenery, but back of this the country is barren and vegetation sparse. Mr. and Mrs. Hartung took a boat ride on through the vast institution and declare there is not a seat nor a desk in it. Teachers and pupils alike sit on the floor, the pupils learning by absorption from the harangue of the teacher, books and paper being unknown.
The Khedives' birthday occurred while they were in Cairo, and they had an opportunity of witnessing a display of beautiful Arabian horses. A parade through the streets was one of the features, and the Khedive's carriage was followed by a regiment of cavalry mounted on white Arabians. The stables of the Khedive are the greatest in the world, hundreds of beautiful Arabians being installed therein. The Arabs themselves use few horses now, the camel being their chief means of locomotion.
Many curiosities from foreign lands were brought home by the tourists. One of the most beautiful was an apricot, carved from marble, so perfect in shape and color that it could only be detected as artificial by lifting it. It came from Italy, and Mr. Hartung paid $25 for it. Among numerous other curriostites Mrs. Hartung has a long string of beads made from a berry at Darjeeling. They are dried to the substance of wood and resemble unpainted wood in appearance.
TOPPED THE MARKET
The Anaheim Fruit Growers Association once more topped the market in New York on oranges. On Saturday the Mother Colony brand sold for $3.55 and a car of Chapman's fruit sold at the same price. On Tuesday a car of Mother Colonys brought $3.80, being 70c above the highest competitor.
Anaheim factory was so fortunate as to secure enough for this winter's planting, some of it being purchased at five times the usual price, but where it will come from the following year is a problem. Even should the war end soon, there is a probability that the industry will be crippled and the supply curtailed. There is only one season's supply ahead at any time consequently one year's failure is disastrous.
The statement that the Anaheim plant had contracted its product in advance consequently would derive no benefit from the increase in price is an error. The product is sold in the market as it is shipped, consequently is subject to fluctuations. It is probable, therefore, that the profit on the 1914 yield will be enormous and the stockholders will reap a heavy dividend.
The growers this season will not benefit by the increased price as they under contract to deliver beets at a fixed price. It is 75 cents per ton lower than the price paid the previous year and was part of the factory's plan of retrenchment made necessary by the tariff law. They will receive an extra price, however, for the crop, owing to the heavy yield and the increased sugar content.
The factory is now slicing 750 tons of beets per day and turning out hundreds of thousands of pounds of sugar. The campaign, it is expected will last 100 days from the date of beginning. The plant is in excellent condition, many improvements and additions having been added since it was built. The beds recently constructed for the absorption of waste water appear to be working admirably, and the offensive odor arising from this waste is not so pronounced as it formerly was. The expense roll of this season will fall far below that of previous

years, as the force of men was reduced, the price of raw material lowered
and little money was expended in repairs and additions. Beets are now
coming in by the train load each day,
and the plant is running at its full capacity.
Of the beet sugar produced in this
country, California produces nearly
3,500,000 bags, 2,300,000 of which was
made last year in the southern end
of the state. Grown on between 135,
000 and 140,000 acres (between 85,
000 and 90,000 in Southern California)
the beet sugar industry is one of vital
importance. The six sugar factories
in the southern counties have a total
slicing capacity of 8000 tons of beets
a day—275 carloads. The campaign
has just opened, and the increased
prices for sugar must mean much to
all factors in the industry—from beet
grower to factory. While many acres
of beets were contracted to the factor before the war broke out, a stronger sugar market is bound to react favorably even on those who may reap no immediate profits therefrom.
Why the war has affected prices can
be readily seen by the following figures showing the production of beet
sugar in the world last year. The
United States produced 615,000 tons,
while more than 8,000,000 tons was
made in Europe as follows:

SALT LAKE BUYING ANAHEIM PROPERTY
Now Certain That New Road Will Shortly Be Built.
In addition to purchasing a strip of land through Jake Vether's place south of town for a right of way the Salt Lake rail road, it is reported, purchased a tract on Broadway, west of the Santa Fe of C. F. Grim, paying therefor $13,000. That this road contemplates building through Orange county to San Diego there can be little doubt, and that it will begin as soon as a right of way is secured is equally certain. Property in Fullerton and Santa Ana has also been purchased, and the scouts who are blazing the trail are moving swiftly, $20,000 was paid for a piece of land in Fullerton, it is stated. This broadway tract was purchased for a depot site. It is no doubt the purpose of the road to parallel the Santa Fe through this immediate section. Agents of the road say that no unnecessary delay will occur in beginning work and rushing it to completion.
J. J. Tavis of Santa Ana, passenger and freight agent of the Salt Lake was in Anaheim Monday and made the statement that the company had se-
night by the Foley & Burk Amusement company for the inauguration of a five day carnival which met with the unanimous approval of that body, and which in all probability, will be carried out. H. C. Wilbur, representing the Foley & Burk company of San Francisco, was before the board and presented the proposition. The company is tied up with contracts which makes it impossible for it to consider a new date earlier than the last week in October, and the proposition was to open on Tuesday, October 27 and continue until Saturday night, October 31.
Mr. Wilbur carries a valise full of documents from city officials, chiefs of police, boards of trade, ladies' societies and other bodies testifying to the cleanliness and harmless character of the entertainment provided by his company, and proved that the most ascetic and Puritanical citizen could find nothing objectionable in anything presented by the company. The "Sapphos," "Sun-Bonnet Snues," and other attractions of a like nature are conspicuously absent in the list of entertainments, but boa constrictors, simians, and other denizens of the jungle will be among the attractions. There are twenty concessions, and all would successfully pass the strictest consorship.
The proposition of Mr. Wilbur was that the Board of Trade would communicate with the city Trustees and see that the grounds were wired and ample juice provided for lights. The gates will be in charge of members of the board and all concessions will present coupons showing receipts and a percentage of this will be paid each night to representatives selected by the board. The management of the company, said Mr. Wilbur, will tolerate nothing of an obscene or objectionable nature, and all persons who follow with a gambling device are turned over to the local police, and either given a floater out of town or incarcerated in the city jail until the close of the carnival. The first night of the carnival the concessions and shows will not be open to the public as that night will be devoted to the coronation of the queen who will be elected by the citizens, to the baby show, and to the automobile parade and other stunts inaugurated by the local people.
Four members of the committee previously appointed to arrange for the proposed entertainment were present and heartily endorsed the proposition of Mr. Wilbur. It was arra-

HARTFIELD TO BUILD
BUSINESS BUILDING
Block 36x100 Will Soon be Erected On West Center
Another improvement is shortly to be made on West Center street, between Lemon and Los Angeles. B. Hartfield is preparing to erect a new business block on his lots adjoining the Dreyfus building. The building will be 36x100 feet and will be divided into two rooms. The east room will be occupied by the S. Q. R. store which is overcrowded in its present quarters and needs an overflow space. Mr. Hartfield will move his jewelry store into the other room.
The two rooms in the building covering this ground now are occupied by the Spanish Kitchen and a pool room. These will move seewhere as it is Mr. Hartfield's intention to beginning on the new building immediately.
