George Wagner was about town on Friday arguing against any move to divert the overflow of storm waters from the Santa Anna river. His lands lay adjacent to the river and he considers the overflow a benefit, in that it carries the best of fertilizers and does the land much good notwithstanding the fact that the water causes some damage by washouts when the Santa Ana goes on the rampage. Messrs Claude and Leslie Swope, of the California Wine company have purchased the building and lot now occupied by that firm, from Mrs. A. Wisser.
