SENATOR W. A. CLARK VISITS SOUTHLAND Salt Lake Magnate and Other Railway Officials Tour This Section Senator William A. Clark of Montana, president of the Salt Lake railway, and a party of railroad officials have been touring Southern California and were scheduled to visit Anaheim Monday or Tuesday, but were called to Arizona before completing the trip and failed to make this point. Considerable interest was centered in their proposed visit to this county owing to the insistent rumors that the Salt Lake intends building its road through this section connecting Los Angeles and San Diego. In the party with the railroad magistrate were Vice president W. H. Bancroft of Salt Lake City, General Manager H. C. Nutt, Superintendent T. P. Cullen, Auditor C. C. Barry, Chief Engineer Arthur McGuire and E. M. Jesup, engineer of maintenance of way. It is no secret that some railroad supposed to be the Salt Lake, recently acquired a right of way through this county paying high prices for land in Anaheim, Santa Ana and Fulerton. It is also stated that the entire right of way was secured from Los Angeles to San Diego. These facts lend color to the belief that Senator Clark's trip to this section had reference to the extension of the Salt Lake road from Los Angeles to San Diego.

Eliglegendoch, 80 years of age, of Huntington Beach, who disappeared from his home with about $200 in his pockets. Mr. Eliglegendoch is partly paralyzed. With Mr. and Mrs. Holley, with whom he lives, Mr. Eliglegendoch early Sunday morning came to Anaheim to visit friends. During the day the aged man left here while his friends were away from the house for a short time. About noon he arrived in a taxicab at the Huntington Inn, where he ate dinner, and before leaving told Mrs. Alma E. Brainard, the owner of the inn, that he was on his way to San Francisco. Mr. Eliglegendoch then asked for assistance in boarding a street car for Los Angeles. According to R. E. Linden, the constable at Huntington Beach, the missing man is unable to walk and is slightly demented. SOME FACTS ABOUT CROPS Every landowner, agriculturist, horticulturist or stockman has an ambition to be a successful producer, whether it be of flowers, pigs, hot-house grapes, or a leg of mutton. He should therefore, be vitally alert as to the trend of production and prices for garden products, live stock, crops, eac. Does he realize, for instance, that in the year 1914 the landowner in Rhode Island received more per ton for his hay than he could have in any other state in the Union, with Massachusetts a close second, while the farmers in North and South Dakota received less for their hay than their brothers anywhere else. The poultry fancier in Nevada received more for his eggs and chickens, with Massachusetts again a close second, and as to butter, Nevada leads again in price, with Connecticut next, and then Massachusetts, New Mexico, Arizona, Rhode Island, in the order given. "The breeder of hogs got the best price in Massachusetts, with Connecticut second and New Jersey third. Milch cows gave a larger return to their owners in Wyoming first—with a rise of price over the last four years." FOREST PROTECTION SAVES $300,000,000 The forest fires that occurred in California last summer directly threatened to destroy government resources worth more than $3,000,000, according to the official report of United States District Forester Court DuBois. The forest rangers, however, succeeded in preventing most of the loss, so that the actual damage sustained by the government will not exceed $90,000. The fire season in California is said to have been the worst in the history of the forest service, 1468 fires occurring as against a normal average for this district of 789. Conditions of wind and temperature were at times extremely favorable to the spread of fires, and only the utmost promptness and energy on the part of the rangers prevented more of them from developing into serious conflagrations. A total area of 53,763 acres was burned, of which 44,463 acres were brush. The worst previous season is said to have been that of 1910 in which 553 fires occurred in California. Owing largely to the undeveloped condition of most of the national forests at that time, only 227 fires could be attacked promptly enough to prevent them from getting beyond control; while the 326 that got away caused a loss of a little over $500,000. The government's protection system is described as having greatly improved since 1910. Telephone lines have been extended, lookout points equipped and manned, and the forest firemen have been stationed at more advantageous points. The result has been that last season 1200 fires were put out in their early stages—nearly a thousand more than in 1910—and the 268 that got away were fought out before they had burned an area of a half-mile square. The conditions surrounding every fire that started were studied by forest officers, and the amount of damage directly threatened by each was computed. On the basis of these reports, the district forester has calculated the loss averaged at $3,013.000. This figure is believed to be conservative. It is corroborated to some extent by a comparison with 1910. PRODUCES HAIR COAT Statistics on the United States United States Geo that despite the pine red metal, the country has exceeded country so far now produces one supply of the wool production of the U.S., was 224,000 pounds. "The breeder of hogs got the best price in Massachusetts, with Connecticut second and New Jersey third. Milch cows gave a larger return to their owners in Wyoming first—with a rise of price over the last four years of $27—Arizona second, Rhode Island third, and Montana fourth. Horses brought more in Massachusetts than anywhere else, with Maine next and Connecticut third. The sheep owner fared best in Connecticut with New Hampshire next, and beef cattle brought more to the Maine breeder, Massachusetts coming second and Rhode Island third. Many will doubtless be surprised to learn that after Nevada, Vermont has a greater yield of wheat per acre than any state in the Union; Maine coming next; and that Vermont's oat yield per acre is the largest of any Eastern state the Western states ranking in the order given: Nevada, Utah, Washington, Idaho. In barley production, California takes the lead, with Minnesota second and the Dakotas third. As to the prices of various commodities, on October 1, 1914, the index figure of crop prices was 3.2 per cent higher than the average for the past six years on the same date, and on September 15 the average price of meat animals, including chickens, hogs, sheep, cattle, etc., was $7.58 per 100 pounds, as compared with $6.92 four years ago. For instance the average prices of milch cows was $59.85, horses $132, hogs $8.11, beef cattle $6.38, veal calves $8.06, and lambs $6.27. As to land products, apples were 62 cents a bushel, pears 93 cents a bushel, eggs (in New York) 32 to than in 1910—and the 268 that got away were fought out before they had burned an area of a half-mile square. The conditions surrounding every fire that started were studied by forest officers, and the amount of damage directly threatened by each was computed. On the basis of these reports, the district forester has calculated the loss averted at $3,013,000. This figure is believed to be conservative. It is corroborated to some extent by a comparison with 1910 when a little more than one-third as many fires caused an actual loss of $500,000. Tenderfeet were responsible for most of the preventable fires, having caused 340. The Southern California forests suffered particularly from this form of carelessness. On seven forests in Northern California incendiarism was prevalent, causing 212 fires. The government paid out $115,820 during the season for fire fighting in California. It required just seven minutes for the Pennsylvania railroad company to move a bridge, a great steel structure weighing seven million pounds, containing three spans and 720 feet long, a distance of 47 feet and exactly eleven minutes after a fast West bound mail train crossed the structure another train passed over the same bridge in its permanent place 47 feet away. The bridge spans the Muskingum river at Tyndall, Ohio, 64 miles east of Columbus. Ten thousand persons witnessed this great engineering task. L. J. Jeffs of Los Angeles was in town Tuesday conferring with W. W. Conklin and Marsh Ingram relative to their patent auto signal. Mr. Jeffs is agent for the patent and declares it is bound to become popular.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE EBELL SOCIETY MAKES GOOD MONEY Handsome Sum Turned Into Building Fuld Through Their Bazaar The ladies of the Ebell society report a net profit of somewhere near $250 as a result of their baznar given at Knights of Columbus hall Friday and Saturday. Both the New England dinner Friday evening and the chicken dinner Saturday night were well patronized, at least 200 people partaking of the spread Saturday. The baznar, also, was well patronized, especially on Saturday, and the society is well satisfied with the results of their venture. A program of entertainment was rendered Saturday evening which included a violin solo by Clarence Chamberlain, a piano solo by Miss Dorothy Garrison, reading by Miss Fay Kern, and a vaudeville act by Jack Walch. Also a ribbon dance by a dozen young ladies of Miss Fay Cox's dancing class. The entertainment was an enjoyable one and the Ebell ladies are pleased over the financial returns and satisfied that they gave their customers the worth of their money. The proceeds will go into the building fund, as the Ebell society is planning to build a handsome club house in the near future. NEW TAXATION SYSTEM A system of equalizing reality values which provides against over-assessing or underassessing the city and county property, was demonstrated to the members of the Los Angeles county board of efficiency by Arthur H. Guild, vice president of the Manufacturers' Appraisal company of Cleveland, O., and M. A. Grant of Redlands, western representative of the concern.

RUNAWAY FLAMES CAUSE MUCH ALARM Fire Started on Irvine Ranch Gets Beyond Control and Burns Large Area Early Thursday morning a bank of smoke appeared on the southern and southeastern horizon, gradually growing denser and spreading until at midday the sun was obscured and the fringe of the northern edge hung over Anaheim. The smoke was caused by a fire which started on the San Joaquin ranch. Employees of the ranch had secured permission to burn some accumulated trash and started three fires, one of which, owing to the high wind prevailing at the time, got beyond control. It spread rapidly and reached the neighborhood of Olive, El Modena and Villa Park and for a time threatened the county park. Fanned by the Santa Ana wind it looked serious to the hundreds of men who were battling with it, but the wind died down during the afternoon and the lighters finally succeeded in staying its progress. The damage caused by the blaze was not very extensive, but A HARD LUCK STORY If you think you have been particularly selected as a victim of hard luck just read this from a man in a neighboring town who had been worried by a collection agency until forbearance coased to be a virtue, and finally took his pen in hand and relieved his mind to the following effect: Dear Sir:—Your letter received, and in reply will say that it came open with a one-cent stamp on it. It would have afforded the boys much amusement had not the melancholy thought came with it that you had no better sense than to abuse and slander a gentleman in an open letter. You speak of honor. I don't believe that you ever saw an honorable lawyer. If you have, it is more than I have done. You speak of causing me considerable trouble. Great God! I have already had enough to send 50 ow you shysters to hell a dozen times. I will give you a history of the case, and if you are surprised at my action you are undoubtedly one of the biggest fools on earth. To begin with: In 1891 I bought a sawmill on credit. In 1892 I bought an ox team, a timber tract, pair of Texan ponies, a breech-loading shotgun, a Winchester rifle, a milk cow, a pair of fine hogs and a set of fine books—all on the installment plan—and hired hands to dig a fish pond. In 1893 my sawmill burned flat to the ground and never left me one dam thing. One of my ponies died, and I hired the other to an infernal, insignificant, box-ankled, prognosticated, infernal drummer, and he killed him by driving him too hard. Then I joined the Farmers' Alliance and the Methodist church; took advantage of the homestead exemption and honest debtors' relief law, and then had my application filed out to join the Masons. I was doing good but for the fact, in 1894, my father died, my mother married a Jayhawk- NEW TAXATION SYSTEM A system of equalizing realty values which provides against over-assessing or underassessing the city and county property, was demonstrated to the members of the Los Angeles county board of efficiency by Arthur H. Guild, vice president of the Manufacturers' Appraisal company of Cleveland, O., and M. A. Grant of Redlands, western representative of the concern. The valuation method is known as the Somers system. W. A. Somers, former city engineer of St. Paul, Minn., is the inventor. County Assessor Hopkins was present during the demonstration of the new system. The members of the board of efficiency appeared to be exceedingly well pleased with the tests, but reserved final decision. Two cities on the Pacific coast, Redlands and Portland, Ore., have installed the system. Thirty cities in the United States are using the plan with good results, it is said. In Redlands since the installation of the Somers system, the property valuation was increased $1,500,000, while in Portland, Ore., it reduced land values some $20,000,000. Other northwestern cities contemplate giving the system a try-out. Eight of the largest cities in Texas have adopted the system and a similar number of cities in Arizona are assessing their property through the medium of the Somers system. Under the Somers system it is impossible to over-assess or under-assess property, as is the case with the system in vogue at present. The Somers system is said to be the one system that gives equality assessment. Before assessment is made under the Somers system a thorough investigation is made by neighborhood conferences as to actual value and not until then is the tax assessment determined. PRODUCES HALF OF WORLD'S COPPER Statistics on the copper industry in the United States compiled by the United States Geological Survey show that despite the present low value of red metal, the production in this country has exceeded that of any country so far that the United States now produces one-half of the entire supply of the world. The copper production of the United States in 1845 was 224,000 pounds.

They were George W. Patison an insurance man of Santa Ana and O. M. Lovelady, a barber of the same place. Patison's head was so badly crushed that he died almost instantly, and Lovelady succumbed shortly after being taken to the Santa Ana hospital. The accident occurred near Pollerino. An eye witness, who was waiting for a stage at the road side, says a machine in which he recognized Messrs. Launders and Fields, two Anaheim men, passed the auto driven by Patison shortly before the accident. The driver seemed to present this and wind prevailing at the time, got beyond control. It spread rapidly and reached the neighborhood of Olive, El Modena and Villa Park and for a time threatened the county park. Fanned by the Santa Ana wind it looked serious to the hundreds of men who were battling with it, but the wind died down during the afternoon and the fighters finally succeeded in staying its progress. The damage caused by the blaze was not very extensive, but some narrow escapes were experienced. Five hundred cattle on the San Joaquin ranch were saved with difficulty. The destruction of trees and feed on the San Joaquina and Bixby ranches was the principal item of loss. On the same day destructive fires occurred in the Ventura, San Bernardino and San Jacinto neighborhoods. All reports from the foothills are to the effect that the flames were under control Saturday, and that there remained but small fires here and there where the canyons were most heavily wooded. Those who have returned from the vicinity of Hidden Ranch, state that Forest Ranger Stephenson and Fire Guard Shaw had 100 men who fought the flames in a section that was covered over with heavy brush. The fire fighting leaders kept a large force of men on duty all night with shovels beating out fire along the edges. In addition to damage mentioned comes word that D. C. Pixley's cabin in Hall canyon was burned and that Robert Shaw's and Harding's apiaries in Black Star canyon were destroyed.

THE JAPS IN CALIFORNIA In a report just compiled by George Robertson, statistician of the Board of Agriculture, a comprehensive view may be had of Japanese holdings in California and some idea obtained of this problem which many people look upon as a very serious matter. The official report is that there are just 331 farms owned by Japanese in California, and in addition, the Japanese have under lease and contracts of various kinds 282 farms and 218 town lots. The total acreage of the farms they own outright is 12,726, valued at $609,605; while they lease another 17,.596 acres. The Japanese population in 1910 was 41,356. Throughout state the Japanese own 2648 places of business in which COPPER Statistics on the copper industry in the United States compiled by the United States Geological Survey show that despite the present low value of the red metal, the production in this country has exceeded that of any country so far that the United States now produces one-half of the entire supply of the world. The copper production of the United States in 1845 was 224,000 pounds. It has gradually increased nearly every year until in 1913 it had reached the enormous figure of 1,224,585,089 pounds. By states the output is as follows: Product Pounds. 1 Arizona ..... 400,000,000 2 Montana ..... 285,000,000 3 Michigan ..... 155,000,000 4 Utah ..... 148,000,000 Imports of copper into the United States in 1913 amounted to 409,000,000 pounds; the exports totaled 926,441,000. The apparent consumption of copper in the United States in 1913 was 812,000,000 pounds. In 1913, 1,624,000,000 pounds of copper was cast in this country. Of that 58 per cent went into wire probably for electrical purposes; 9 per cent in cakes for rolling; 8 per cent as a cathodes and ingots used in the brass industry and casting. The 1913 exports recorded 133,000,000 pounds to United Kingdom; 34,000,000 to Austria-Hungary; 7,090,000 to Belgium; 160,000,000 to France; 307,000,000 to Germany; 41,000,000 to Italy; 178,000,000 to Netherlands; 8,000,000 to Russia; 14,000,000 to other European countries; 36,000,000 to Canada and 5,000,000 to other countries, a total of 926,000,000 pounds. The world's copper production in 1913 was 2,198,732,130 pounds. The nearest rivals to the United States are Japan with 160,000,000 pounds; Spain and Portugal, 120,000,000; Mexico 116,- A number of local light fans journeyed to Santa Ana Monday evening to take in the boxing contests at the Athletic club's rooms in that city. The boys were all pleased with the exhibitions given by the devotees in the art of self-defense. Some of the aportively inclined young men of this city are agitating the propriety of organizing an athletic club here. During the McKinley administration when a legitimate war tax was before congress, 129 out of 131 democratic members of congress voted against the measure. That is how they "loyally supported the president." The official report is that there are just 331 farms owned by Japanese in California, and in addition, the Japanese have under lease and contracts of various kinds 282 farms and 218 town lots. The total acreage of the farms they own outright is 12,726, valued at $699,605, while they lease another 17-596 acres. The Japanese population in 1910 was 41,356. Throughout the state the Japanese own 2548 places of business in which the capital invested totals $4,475,226. Of the total number 68 per cent represent an investment of less than $1OOO each. The total amount of business done last year by Japanese stores and business houses in California was $16,-114,4O7, and of this aggregate 37 per cent was carried on with white people. The total annual rental paid by Japanese business houses in the State is set down as $9OO.OO. Aside from the leases mentioned they rent many places on a share basis, but there is no means of gathering statistics in regard to this class. That the Japanese have a foothold in California there is no doubt; how much farther they will be able to get remains to be seen, and right there is the problem. Arizona by a vote of 3 to 2 carried the initiative measure providing that in every business establishment where five or more people are employed, at least 8O per cent shall be Americans. The measure is to be attacked in the courts on the ground that it violates treaty rights. The law is unjust in the first place, and if we permit foreigners to come into this country we should certainly grant them an opportunity to work. Mrs. E. B.
