SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PRIMARY ELECTION ESHELMAN'S VOTE FALLS FAR SHORT OF BEING A MAJORITY OF THE REPUBLICAN POLL VOTERS OF THE PARTY, NORTH AND SOUTH, WILL STAND SHOULDER TO SHOULDER The primary election in the main resulted as those who had the best means of knowing expected. Of the four Republican candidates for Governor it had been for some time apparent that Fredericks had the lead. Of the candidates for Senator Knowland was undoubtedly the strongest. It was admitted that Eshleman would get more votes for the Republican nomination for Lieutenant-Governor than any other candidate; and in the scramble for the state offices it was foreseen that this very raw primary law would afford exceptional opportunity for some of the Progressive candidates to obtain Republican indorsement. The Congressional and county fights have been slow in being resolved into understandable statistics. What is palpable is that Republicans, on main issues, asserted themselves, and gave notice of further activity at the general election. Whether by design or otherwise, the primary law is admirably calculated to encourage sharp practice, and to prevent a majority of a party determining who shall be the party's candidate. Where but two are running this fault is not conspicuous; but where several contest for a party nomination, the successful aspirant may not receive a majority of the votes cast; may not even be a member of the party; may, indeed, be a member of an opposing party, as we see in the case of Eshleman. publicans to vote for Johnson and the general Progressive ticket in November. What really happened was that things broke very fortunately for Eshleman. There were four regular Republican candidates for Lieutenant-Governor, not one of whom appeared to be distinctive enough for voters to center upon. Any one of the four counted just as much as another to the general run of voters. The consequence was that the majority Republican vote was about equally divided among the four. And no doubt many voted for Eshleman because of their inability to choose between the others. While the four regular candidates received a good many more votes than Eshleman, no one of them received as many, and he becomes the candidate of the party that he has declared corrupt, that he has steakily helped to kill, and that his party, of which he is a distinct leader, officially declared dead. Aside from his political action and affiliation Eshleman is well thought of at large. The Republican vote was given him in spite of his alliance with the Bull Moose forces, and not because of it. If he had not had incubus he would have received a larger indorsement. The Eshleman vote is no more to be cited as showing the public trend than the Jordan vote. Secretary of State Jordan is an official who has stood up single handed against the Bull Moose machine. Several frame ups have been made to discredit him and get his office for bestowal upon a Bull Mooser. He has been the best hated official by the Bull Moose contingent of any in the whole state. If the public was inoculated with Bull Moose virus it would have snowed Jordan under. But while the ration of Eshleman's Republican votes was less than two-fifths of the whole, the ratio of Jordan's was about four-fifths. Jordan is the bête noir of the Progressives; and if the mass of the Republican voters felt toward Johnson as the state administration feels toward him the ratio of his party vote would have been below that of Eshleman.

Where but two are running this fault is not conspicuous; but where several contest for a party nomination, the successful aspirant may not receive a majority of the votes cast; may not even be a member of the party; may, indeed, be a member of an opposing party, as we see in the case of Eshleman. The Hon. J. R. Knowland's victory is a very popular one. Everybody remembers that he made a dignified campaign, albeit a most energetic one. Method and industry are characteristics that greatly distinguish him, and when he set out to gain the Republican nomination for United States Senator he put his whole heart in the work. That is the way he has performed at legislative tasks that have confronted him in the past, and that is the method he will be found pursuing after taking his seat in the Senate after March of next year, for of course he will be elected. Knowland's dignified campaign has left him in the best possible position now to make the campaign in November. That will be more largely a contest of party principle, with the personal equation somewhat subdued, yet ever and finally standing back of the appeal. The man who becomes a candidate of a party must stand for the principles of that party; and while the public understands that he will contend for those principles, the public will have to judge of the honesty and earnestness of that appeal from the personality of the advocate; and Knowland can well afford to let his record as a legislator and man speak for him. And he will without doubt proceed on the same dignified lines that he followed in the preliminary. There is some talk among other than Republicans about the friends of defeated Republican aspirants for the gubernatorial nomination making reprisal upon the nominee at the general election. The wish is father to the intimation. There never was a fairer fight than that of the recent primaries as to candidates for the nomination for governor. It there is disappointment in the northern part of the state it is to be remembered that the north had three aspirants while the south had but one. The north scattered, while the south concentrated. But there would appear to be no real ground upon which our solicitous enemies may build up dissensions among ourselves. Republicans will stand shoulder to shoulder for the party standard bearer—to reestablish their party in this great commonwealth where its tenets are so largely believed in. There is some smiling over the defeat of Rowell for the Progressive Senatorial nomination. Rowell has been the academic expounder of the Bull Moose doctrine, and explainer of INTOXICATED MAN DRIVES AN AUTO Smashes Into Machine at Newport Beach and Creates Havoc Two automobiles collided at the foot of the grade on Newport Beach road and though both were badly smashed up and one man was thrown down a twenty-foot embankment, not one of the six men concerned was seriously injured. O. J. Thacker a salesman for the Los Angeles Milling Company, was driving from Newport Beach in a Bulck. Coming down the grade in a Studebaker were W. Grant Brown of Brea, A. J. Kelley and A. J. Sproul of Fullerton, C. L. McGill of La Habra, and J. B. Butler of Chico. Thacker was intoxicated. He so stated in Justice Fullerton's court when he was fined $100 and had his license to drive a car taken away from him. Brown got entirely off the paved portion of the road, yet Thacker swerved so far to the wrong side of the road that the two machines struck. There was hardly a piece of wood on the Studebaker that was not broken. The windshield, lamps and fenders were smashed. Both seats were ripped off the car. Butler was thrown out and had his eyes discolored in a roll down the embankment. Thacker's Bulck turned over on its side. When the Studebaker crowd got to him he was still hanging to the wheel. Brown took Thacker into Newport Beach and turned him over to the officers. The Studebaker belonged to Miss Helen Brown of Fullerton. She was driving another car, and met Thacker first. Thacker almost caused her to drive off the bridge into the bay. He missed a collision by an inch. PROCEEDINGS OF THE COUNTY BOARD Routine Business Transacted at Last Tuesday's Session The Board met on Tuesday, Sept. 8, pursuant to adjournment. All members and the Clerk were present. The contract for the construction of the Coyote Creek bridge was awarded to Earl F. Low Co., for the sum of $5118.00. Supervisor Schumacher was given permission to spend in excess of $300 for road work in Fullerton road district. Supervisor Struck was given permission to spend in excess of $300 for road work in Silverado road district. Head of State State Supporter sailed a letter others to nip bud, thus护下 pupils.

Repubilicans will stand shoulder to shoulder for the party standard bearer—to reestablish their party; in this great commonwealth where its tenets are so largely believed in. There is some smiling over the defeat of Rowell for the Progressive Senatorial nomination. Rowell has been the academic expounder of the Bull Moose doctrine, and explainer of Bull Moose high-handness, such as the election of Works when the state advisory vote favored another, and the disfranchisement of California Republicans in 1912, which needed more explanation than even Rowell was able to give. Rowell has been the high-brow of the Bull Moose movement, while Heney has been the Roughneck, as it might be put. That Heney should put Rowell so distinctly out of it as the vote indicates is likely to be accepted as indicating the present character of the Bull Moose outfit. If Rowell, with the same relish as formerly can keep on saving California and the country from the corrupt and extinct Republican party, he will demonstrate the cheerful loser, indeed. It has been predicted by some farseeing forecasters that a triple alliance exists between Phelan, Honey and Kent, bearing upon the Senatorial contest; that the efforts of the Phelan (which means the national administration) Democrats to elect Kent, who isn't a Democrat, but who stood with the administration in those measures that particularly swatted California, while Kent is financing Honey, Progressive nominee for the Senatorship and a natural competitor of Phelan, must mean something that at the present time is up somebody's sleeve. It is believed by some that Heney is to curl up and the endeavor be made to throw the Bull Moose vote to Phelan; but others point out that Heney is not on such bad terms with himself as to feel that there is any possibility of his losing, and consequently that it would be impossible for anybody to make a bargain to the above effect. The Eshleman primary vote is pointed to by Progressives as indicating the intent of a majority of Re- Tuesday's Session The Board met on Tuesday, Sept. 8, pursuant to adjournment.

This league will be open to all ANAHEIM GAZETTE The state will be divided into a northern and southern division and each division will be subdivided into districts or groups. By a number of series of debates two champions will be selected, one from each part of the state. The two winners will then meet in Berkeley for a final debate to determine the championship of California. Suitable prizes will be awarded to the school winning the state title. The debating league will be under the direction of the University Extension Division, which will determine the questions for debate and will match the schools for the series. It will act also in the capacity of arbiter for all disputes or protests that may arise between contestants. Many state universities, notably Minnesota and Kansas, have been successfully conducting high school debating leagues for a number of years. A similar league, under the direction of the University of California is expected to prove of much practical value in connection with the work in public speaking in the high schools of California. This new movement is receiving the support of many of the leading high schools in the state and promises to do much to aid work in debating throughout the state.

Head of State School System Cautions Against War Talk State Superintendent Hyatt has issued a letter advising teachers and others to nip all war arguments in the bud, thus preventing division among the pupils. He says: The president of the United States has requested the people of this country to refrain from showing partiality during the progress of the European war. It is a patriotic duty for all of us to do that we can in furthering and supporting this policy of our chief executive. Each of the warring nations has sons and daughters in this country. They and their children are in our work shops on our farms, within our schools. They are a part of us. Discord and bad feeling among the elements of our people is dangerous at this time. The most enlightened and powerful nations have forgotten their civilizations and are at each other's throats in a death clutch. There is an opportunity for our country to conserve the peace and safety of the world at this junction by simply preserving its own equilibrium. It is eminently fitting that the schools should do their share in promoting harmony and in avoiding causes of conflict. A little dispute leads we know not where. It is proper then to call upon all the school people of California to be wise and far seeing in avoiding possible race prejudices and race conflicts brought over from the sea. Postpone discussions, debates and contests touching the causes or merits of the war until the war has closed, until man recovers his senses. Take special pains to smooth away disputes among the young people and try to prevent the children of one race from putting themselves against those of another. Teach the doctrine that we are all Americans here, with one country, one flag. Now is our moment to put forward the idea of patriotism, civic patriotism as opposed to the patriotism of war. Patriotism does not necessarily move to the music of the life and the drum. Living for one's country is better than dying for it—and harder. There are other heroes than those at the cannon's mouth. It is a splendid contrast, this nation, made up of individuals from each of the warring worlds, yet moving steadily ahead, helping building up, not destroying, not tearing down the things that humanity has accomplished in the long march of centuries. Is it not a worthy task, to keep the feet of a hundred million people in the paths of honest industry and away from the gory fields of war. U. OF C.

She is the nation's best trader and her transactions more nearly reflect the progress and prosperity of the country than the reports of our clearing houses. All legislation, financial or otherwise, ought to be so plain that the housewife can understand it. Our legislators, state and national, shoot so far over the head of the average citizen that those who are unable to employ an attorney and accept his statements in blind faith, must forever remain in ignorance of our laws. Of course we have so many laws that no human can expect to read them and survive the ordale, but any person who feels an irresistible impulse to legislate, should try his proposed law on his neighbor and get it down where the common people can understand it before attempting to put it on the statute books. SILK TRADE MENACED The American silk trade, menaced from the moment the war in Europe began, is believed to be in a worse plight since Japan entered the conflict and probably will be further handicapped should Italy get into the war game. Practically all of the raw silk used by American manufacturers comes from Italy, China and Japan. Even should the manufacturers be able to secure the raw material they would find difficulty in continuing in business because of the lack of dyes, which come from Germany. The dye-stuff problem is at present the most pressing one. For more than a year the American silk manufacture has been the most prosperous of all the textile industries in this country, and recently it has been operating about 85 per cent of normal. Jacketing Pipe. The test is now being made on some of the mains of the Yorb Linda Water company's system by placing around the pipe a cement jacket made in the forms out of the finest grade of cement concrete, allowed to harden in place, thus making a solid cement jacket around the pipe for the purpose of protecting the pipe from external rust and also from the effect of electrolysis caused by the Pacific Electric railway crossing the mains. This has been tried in other districts and proved eminently satisfactory and there is every reason to expect perfect satisfaction in this case. The Yorb Linda Mercantile company was organized at a meeting held for this purpose Wednesday evening. The officers are: Thomas B. Welch, president; J. A. Buckmaster, treasurer; Roy C. Ware, secretary. The concern is organized for the purpose of running a co-operative store at Yorb Linda, which will be a general department store, carrying all supplies and commodities generally handled by a large institution of this nature.

SCIENTIST IN CHARGE The California Fish and Game Commission, believing that education as to the necessity and value of game production and preservation is a more efficient means of conserving the state's game than police patrol, has inaugurated a burea of research and publicity. Dr. Harold C. Bryant of the University of California has been placed in charge of the new work. The function of this bureau will be to find ways and means of protecting and preserving foreign and domestic game birds within the state and to dispense information relative to game by means of correspondence, public illustrated lectures, and by the issuance of bulletins dealing with the status of game. A study will also be made of the habitats, habits and breeding seasons of the different game birds and mammals of the state so that a basis for sane game laws may be afforded. Laws and police measures, though necessary, are not so effective for the preservation of game as an enlightened public sentiment. This new move of the Commission will hasten the day when a large force of wardens, making hundreds of arrests yearly will be unnecessary. Drowned in Surf. Charles R. Pledmence of Los Angeles, who recently came from Birmingham, Ala., was drowned in the surf at Newport Beach on Sunday as he was giving an exhibition of fancy swimming. It is believed that he was seized with an attack of the heart, with which trouble Pledmence had been a subject for some time past. He was 46 years old and leaves a widow and one son. His father-in-law, M. F. Dolg, is a well known rancher of Santa Ana. Pledmence was a building contractor. Cement, glass, mucilage, metal polish at Heying's Pharmacy.

Balboa Man Drowned. John Kennedy, familiarly called "Jack" was drowned Thursday at Balboa. There are some peculiar circumstances connected with the case which take it out of the ordinary. Kennedy was formerly a bartender, employed at Balboa. He had been working in the saloon about three months when he was discharged for drinking. He had been hanging about the saloon ever since, and has drunk when people would treat him. Thursday he was seen to walk along the beach, throw his coat on the sand and unbutton his shoes. He was heard to make remarks in a manner-suggestive that he was either insane or on the verge of delirium. He walked along the sand spit. He was last seen sortly after noon, and at 3:30 his dead body was found floating in the bay. It is the opinion of Coroner Winbigler that he did not deliberately intend to commit suicide, but walked into the water and suddenly found himself beyond his depth and unable to save himself. Kennedy had no relatives around these parts so far as is known. He has boasted that he had an uncle, Patsy Kennedy, in the office of the Sheriff at Cleveland Ohio. Anaheim Laundry Co.
