CITY TO FURNISH LIGHTS FOR CARNIVAL TRUSTEES GRANT PETITION OF BOARD OF TRADE COMMITTEE FOR FREE JUICE ANAHEIM UNION WATER COMPANY LANDS CONTRACT FOR 1500 BARRELS OF OIL Messrs J. W. Duckworth and H. P. Noll, of the Board of Trade carnival committee, appeared before the city trustees Thursday evening with a petition for a number of concessions for pioneer week. The trustees happened to be in a particularly docile mood and granted every request without unnecessary argument or discussion. Firstly, the petition explained, they wanted lights. For the carnival grounds on the Deutsch tract, they wanted a thousand or more lights, and wanted them donated by the city. They wanted permission to close up Claudina street from Center to Broadway on the evening of Tuesday, October 27, for the purpose of transforming that block of paved street into a bail room. The street is to be enclosed with canvas, and the committee wanted more lights here, innumerable lights—colored lights shedding all the rays of the rainbow down into the enclosure. Here the queen will be crowned on Tuesday evening after which sane will open the ball, and those who care to dance can waltz on the asphalt pavement until daylight if they feel so inclined. Furthermore the committee wanted a blanket license covering all concessions so that each individual show would not be compelled to pay the amount fixed by ordinance. After some discussion it was agreed to fix a license of $100 upon the entire aggregation. This was mutually satisfactory. Mr. Duckworth explained that the canvas on Claudina street would be removed the following morning and the lights would be need- Emil Miller, same ... 85.00 V. W. Hannim, same ... 80.00 W. F.

Mr. Duckworth explained that the canvas on Claudina street would be removed the following morning and the lights would be needed but one night. The Anaheim Union Water company was awarded the contract for furnishing the city with 1500 barrels of crude oil for road purposes. Five bids were received, as follows: Union Oil company ... 80c (f. o. b. Los Angeles) Anaheim Water company ... 78½c (f. o. b. Anaheim) Associated Oil company ... 90c (f. o. b. Anaheim) Standard Oil Company ... $1.09 (f. o. b. Anaheim) Tarr & McComb ... 90c (f. o. b. Anaheim) The contract was awarded the Anaheim Union Water Company. The bill will be from the Placentia field. Resolution No. 103 closing up a portion of West Sycamore street, adjourning the Langenberger property, was rescinded and another resolution adopted in its stead. It was discovered that an error of one word occurred in the former resolution which invalidated it. City Marshal Kellenberger reported that obstructions of the sidewalks were becoming so numerous in spots that it was necessary to take action in the matter, and he wanted definite instructions from the board in the matter. Goods displayed for sale and signs in some places made the passage way too narrow to accommodate the pedestrians. As this matter is already covered by ordinance the marshal was instructed to use his own discretion about restraining the advertising propensity of the merchants. A written application from the carnival committee for permission to stretch advertising banners across various streets advertising the pioneer week celebration was granted. Application for building permits were granted as follows: To F. A. Yungbluth, brick building on West Center street. Cost $5000. To W. E. Duckworth, brick building on South Claudina street. Cost $5000. C. W. Annin was granted permission to move a house from the Duckworth site on Claudina street to a lot on Santa Ana street. Recorder Howard petitioned for a short leave of absence which was granted. Application of J. J. Vetter for an extension of the sewer system on Kroeger street to his new residence was left in the hands of the public improvement committee. NAMES WANTED County Clerk Williams has received from the County Dry Federation a legal demand for a list of lodgers in some fifty-six hotels, apartment houses and lodging houses in this county. Under the law when such a demand is made by citizens, the county clerk must name a man to go to the places named in the petition and secure the lists from the proprietors, who must give such a list. Those signing the demand are W. A. Rose, G. M. Ross, C. W. Harvey, L. O. Culp, L. A. Evans, F. J. Barnes, C. H. M. Sutherland, J. M. Gunnett, Thomas Crawford and S. R. Coate. On the list of places to be reported upon are three hotels, eight apartments and sixteen furnished rooming places in Santa Ana; nine places in Anaheim, two in Newport Beach, five in Fullerton, eight in Huntington Beach and five in Orange.

ONLY WHILE THE WAR LASTS In any case, the operation of the low tariff law against American industries will be suspended only while the war lasts. When peace has been restored, as at some time it must be in dustrial activity will revive in those countries, and the need of money will give it impetus. To stimulate demand in this country, prices will be made attractive, even though the price for foreign labor has to be made cheaper than it was before. To avert ultimate rule from American industrial and commercial interests, Americans must see to it that the democratic tariff law is supereded by one in the making of whose schedules the difference in cost of production at home and abroad is duly taken into consideration; through which restoration of adequate protection for American industries and labor will be assured. That purpose cannot be accomplished until after the presidential election of 1916, but the people of the United States can make it known, at the Congressional elections that will be held next November, that it is their determination to accomplish it. Restoration of a republican majority to the House of Representatives at the approaching elections will notice to the beneficiaries of the democratic tariff law that they must not PILEMEN NEED HARBOR CITY The California Commission announces for employment connection with the harbor commission cisco will be receive the commission, at mento, on or before salary is $5.00 per now several vacancies.

(Authorized Publicity) FAKE PROHIBITION FIGURES EXPOSED Comparison With Her Sister State Shows That Her "Dryness" is Rot Dr. Edward Huntington Williams, a physician of national repute, turns the searchlight of science onto Kansas, whose achievements under prohibition have been heralded by William Allen White. Dr. Williams compares Kansas with Nebraska, a license state. "Any comparison to be convincing must be between states closely similar in ever particular. Kansas and Nebraska present such similarity." Dr. Williams says that, quoting the government census reports, Nebraska decreased its insanity cases three times more than Kansas did between 1900 and 1909, Kansas at the end of that time having 28 per 100,000, Nebraska 10. Of these numbers of insane Kansas has 5 per cent alcoholic cases, Nebraska 4 per cent. Moreover, this form of insanity has increased one per cent for the last three years in Kansas. Kansas leads all surrounding states in the number of paretic insane, insanity which is the result of venereal disease. As to her criminals—The official reports of the state penitentiaries show that Kansas has 52 inmates for each 100,000 inhabitants. Nebraska has 35.7. Moreover, the prison warden's report shows that 77.2 per cent of cases were attributed to alcohol. STATE HIGHWAY TO BE PUSHED RAPIDLY NEARLY ENTIRE ROAD THROUGH COUNTY WILL BE FINISHED BEFORE WINTER ENDS SECTION BETWEEN ANAHEIM AND FULLERTON SURFACED WITH HEAVY ASPHALTUM Nearly all of the state highway through Orange county will be completed by next spring, and that which will not be finished will be provided with good roads as by passes, so that travel over the state highway to the exposition at San Diego need not be interrupted. This statement was made by State Highway Commissioner N. D. Darlington, who is in this county in the interest of hastening state highway work as much as possible. "We want to get the road from Los Angeles to San Diego finished as soon as possible," said he. "The entire state is interested in the exposition at San Diego, and though we may not be able to get all of the state highway through Orange county completed by spring we know that most of it will be finished and we will give special attention and spend money to provide good by-passes." The concrete base on the state highway has been laid between Santa Ana and the county line near Whittler. Within a week the surfacing between Santa Ana and Anaholim will be finished. That is the best surfacing done by the state. It is an inch and a half asphalt, known as the Topeka mix. P. J. WEISEL Shop Phones Res.

Moreover, the prison warden's report shows that 77.2 per cent of cases were attributed to alcohol. As to paupers—Government statistics show that there are 52.5 persons per 100,000 of the population in the almshouses of Kansas; 43.5 in Nebraska. Is Kansas dry as she claims to be? The files of the county clerk of Shawnee county, in which the city of Topeka is located, show that in the month of September, 1913, the shipments of liquor, officially reported, amounted to 95,561 quarts, of which 90,062 quarts were received in Topeka, city of 45,000 inhabitants—"just half a gallon per month for each man, woman and child." This is a somewhat questionable showing for a model town. And yet, by comparison Topeka shows to advantage, for her little neighbor, Tecumseh, with a population less than 100, received 1827 quarters in one month—an amount equivalent to about one barrel of whiskey per annum—five barrels to the family. Meanwhile California during the same time in which Kansas was making this record, showed the greatest decline in the number of insane in her institutions of any state, and was only second to one state in the decrease of new cases of insanity. According to William Allen, White, Kansas consumes $2,230,000 worth of liquor a year. Some booze! And according to the investigation made by the Russel Sage Foundation, Kansas schools ranked twenty-fourth in the Union. PILEMEN NEEDED ON STATE HARBOR COMMISSION The California State Civil Service Commission announces that applications for employment as pilmen in connection with the state board of harbor commissioners in San Francisco will be received at the office of the commission, state capitol, Sacramento, on or before Oct. 31, 1914. The concrete base on the state highway has been laid between Santa Ana and the county line near Whittler. Within a week the surfacing between Santa Ana and Anaholim will be finished. That is the best surfacing done by the state. It is an inch and a half asphalt, known as the Topeka mix. "The Associated Chambers of Commerce of this county petitioned the commission to use the same surface for the road north from Anaholim to the county line," said Darlington. "I shall recommend that it be used between Anaholim and Fullerton, but I think it will be good business judgment for us to use a half-inch rock and oil the rest of the way. The heavier surface costs $3000 more a mile than the light surfacing. The lighter surfacing used at Fresno has borne heavy traffic for eighteen months and is in excellent shape. If it does not stand the traffic north of fullerton, it can later be replaced with the heavier cover." The state contracts between Santa Ana and the San Diego county line are being let in sections, six in number. The Davisson Contracting company of Monrovia is at work on about eight miles between Irvine and Gallivan, and Contractors White and Gaskell of Long Beach will start on the job between Santa Ana and Irvine within a week. Darlington stated that the section between Galivan and San Juan creek below the old mission is almost ready for contracting, and that work will be started within thirty days upon the section between the San Diego county line and the Santa Fe Railroad, now one of the worst pieces of road in Orange county. That leaves but two sections not accounted for in the above outline. Those sections lie largely along the Santa Fe Railroad, and as yet the state has been unable to secure the right to build on the railroad's right of way. When that right is secured there will be no delay in pushing the work. There is forty-five miles of state highway in this county. By the time that is all paved the county will have finished the work laid out in its plans for good roads. Those plans call for 107 miles of new roads, nearly all paved.

CALIFORNIA FARMS California has 88,197 farms; of this number 70,049 are operated by owners and managers and 18,148 by tenants. Seventy-nine per cent of the farms of this state are operated by owners and managers and 21 per cent by tenants. The farm home owners and managers of California cultivate 8,193,000 acres of land and the tenants till 31,970,000 acres in this state. The value of the land and buildings of the tenant farms of this state is $338,609,000; that of the home owners and managers is $1,111,992,000. In compiling data for the last federal census, the enumerators asked every farmer in California this question: "How long have you lived on the farm you now occupy." This question was answered by 82,070 of the 88,197 farm operators in this state. More than 20,000 stated that they had occupied their farms only one year or less; 23,299 from 2 to 4 years; 15,896 from 5 to 9 years and 22,723 10 years and over. The most restless class of people in this state is the tenant who operates his farm on the share basis. There are 6,839 of these farmers in this state; 6,607 of them made Santa Fe Railroad, and as yet the state has been unable to secure the right to build on the railroad's right of way. When that right is secured there will be no delay in pushing the work. There is forty-five miles of state highway in this county. By the time that is all paved the county will have finished the work laid out in its plans for good roads. Those plans call for 107 miles of new roads, nearly all paved. With state and county highways together there will be 150 miles of paved roads in the county. It is a safe guess that both state and county projects will be completed within seven months. The county is on the short end of its project now. Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Jones recommends. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.—Adv. An appeal has been taken from a decision of Judge Howard in an action brought by the West Coast Gas company against H. M. Levy, a restaurant keeper of Balboa. The gas company asked for/$101.88 judgement on a gas bill. The defendant put in a counterclaim for $299 because the restaurant put in gas and got such poor service that meals could not be cooked properly, with the result that custom was lost. Judgment was $80.33 for the gas company. T. A. Wells represented the gas company and B. E. Tarver the restaurant man. The case was transferred to Howard's court from Anaheim. It is now in the superior court. William Termath and wife of Los Angeles, visited with Mr. and Mrs. A. B. McCord Sunday. Studebaker WEISEL & CO. - AGENTS Anaheim, Cal.
