VOLUME XXXXV DISCUSS MATTER OF PROTECTING OLIVE ROAD BOARD OF TRADE WRESTLES WITH THE QUESTION OF RIVER PROTECTION MONDAY NIGHT TWO SILVER CUPS WILL BE OF-FERED AS PRIZES AT ORANGE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL TRACK MEET R. J. McFadden threw an always-explosive bomb into their midst when he introduced the subject of river protection at the board of trade meeting Monday night. He stated that nothing could be done toward paving the Olive road until some protection was afforded, and he believed a compromise might be effected between the board of trade, or the people in the storm water district and the supervisors. Some protection work is needed, he said, and it was immaterial to him who did it, but it was clearly not the duty of the highway commission to perform the work. Supervisor Schumacher made a few work until a prescribed date soliciting members, the one showing up the least number to provide a banquet for the whole. H. P. Noll was appointed by the chair to head one committee and J. W. Duckworth the other. Each will choose nineteen members of the board for assistants and will enter the contest with the determination to win. On a certain date they will make reports, count noses, and the side showing the least number of new names will furnish the feed. Six new names were added to the roll Monday night. They were R. E. Vaughn, G. H. Goodale, W. T. Hazel, T. R. Hopkins, C. L. Head and Louis Handleman. Prof. Hauck of the advertising committee reported that the new sign boards were now in the hands of the painter and would shortly be completed. Also that the contract would be let in a day of two for printing the new booklet. A Long Beach brick making and construction firm, which is seeking to establish a branch in Orange county, had their matter pending before the board but it was decided to take no official action. The company wants to increase its capital, also its brick plants, by selling stock. The committee which visited Long Beach to investigate reported that the company had an excellent financial standing and its reputation was above reproach. After hearing the report of the committee the board voted to extend a welcome to the company if it decided nothing could be done toward paving the Olive road until some protection was afforded, and he believed a compromise might be effected between the board of trade, or the people in the storm water district and the supervisors. Some protection work is needed, he said, and it was immaterial to him who did it, but it was clearly not the duty of the highway commission to perform the work. Supervisor Schumacher made a few brief remarks to the effect that he favored paving the road and completing the bridge and its approaches, but the majority of the board thought otherwise. Before the contract for the bridge was let, he said, a petition signed by 250 persons, pledging themselves to do what they could toward protection, was received, but he did not consider the district should be obligated by that. It was no fault of the board of trade that conditions were as they are at present. Mr. Schumacher was in favor of paving the road and continuing to use the old bridge for the present. H. A. Dickel and others spoke in favor of protection, some advocating a private subscription fund if no other possible way could be found. J. T. Alborn suggested that instead of trying to collect money the people contribute a little muscle and do the required work without price. Two or three hundred volunteers, with teams, spades and axes, could do a prodigious amount of work in a short time and thus settle the vexed question. It was decided to take no action until after the disincorporation election on February 26. A. A. Mills thought it best to take no action whatever as a bill was now before the legislature empowering supervisors to construct protection works and he was of the opinion it would pass. If it did there would probably be a system embodied which would include the entire county. This would be a solution of the affair and he favored taking no action until the lawmakers at Sacramento showed their hands. Clark Scott, manager of the Orange county high school athletic meet to be held in this city on March 13, made an appeal to the board for a loving cup to be given to the pupil making the highest number of points at the meet. He mentioned some of the athletes of the Anaheim high school, dilated on their prowess, and assured the board that there was little danger of the trophy getting away from Anaheim. GEO. ROYER ENTERTAINS CHIEFS OF POLICE Chiefs White of San Francisco and Sebastian of Los Angeles, Guests of Local Capitalist. Gen. J. O. Royer entertained as guests at his west end home on Sunday, Chief of Police White of San Francisco, and Mrs. White, Chief Sebastian of Los Angeles, Mrs. Sebastian, and a distinguished company of other ladies and gentlemen. General Royer was last year elected president of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, at a meeting held at Minneapolis. He has given a tract of land at the west end to Silver Star K. P. lodge of Los Angeles, composed of police officers, for erection thereon of a home for widows and orphans of police officials. The building will cost $150,000 and besides the home for widows and orphans will contain an agricultural building and model farm and dairy. Money for these institutions is now being secured, and it is expected that work upon the building will begin in the near future. Chiefs White and Sebastian went over the ground with Gen. Royer and approved the site. The distinguished guests were entertained at an elaborate dinner, and later returned to Los Angeles in automobiles. ANAHEIM BOYS LOST TO REDLANDS It Was a Good Game of Ball but Locals Were Defeated Although it was described as the best game of ball ever played on a Reldands diamond the Anaheim boys are not jubilating very much over Sunday's game as they held the short end of a 5 to 1 score. The special train, which it was proposed to run, was abandoned because sufficient tickets could not be sold to justify it con- had their matter pending before the board but it was decided to take no official action. The company wants to increase its capital, also its brick plants, by selling stock. The committee which visited Long Beach to investigate reported that the company had an excellent financial standing and its reputation was above reproach. After hearing the report of the committee the board voted to extend a welcome to the company if it decided to build a plant here, but declined to take part in the sale of stock. The first stunt won by Santa Ana run, and the auditor Beebe. Wellman mes entered for took lead from it until the best lap, with Christ baugh third. Coused Wellman aming the distance a surprising buildup Welborn and waived of Christenson tape. Time 5:23. The next was This was won by his time being end of Santa Ana wass less of Anaheim. The high jump resulted in a contestants, but it was announced Plevin were tied inches, and need it. It was expressions would set but there was no. The 120-yard on the program made a score in so long he kicked it was won by Gregg of Anaheim 18:5 seconds. The 440-yard victory for Douglas the distance in Santa Ana was achieved hopelessly outlining the first three Anaheimers. On his distance behind Webb and Marsh Clark Scott, manager of the Orange county high school athletic meet to be held in this city on March 13, made an appeal to the board for a loving cup to be given to the pupil making the highest number of points at the meet. He mentioned some of the athletes of the Anaheim high school, dilated on their prowess, and assured the board that there was little danger of the trophy getting away from Anaheim. The idea met with hearty endorsement of the board. In fact it was so well received that Mr. Dickel moved that two cups be offered—one to the high school carrying off the honors, the other to the individual making the most points. His motion was unanimously carried, and the chair appointed Messrs. Ahlborn, Dickel and Hauck a committee to purchase the cups. The cup to be presented to the school will be contested for each year, and will become the permanent property of the school first winning three contests. The individual cup will be the perpetual property of the winner. The question of an excursion train to San Diego was introduced by H. P. Noll. The railroad offers a train with a round trip fare of $3.05 provided one hundred tickets are sold. It was decided to fix the date of the excursion 60 days hence, but to begin immediately selling tickets for same and it is hoped to have a booster crowd or 300 in attendance. J. W. Duckworth, E. R. Abbeey, J. F. Ahlborn, Prof. Hauck and H. P. Noll were appointed on the committee to make the arrangements and sell the tickets. In order to boost the membership of the board a scheme has been devised which it is believed will result in adding a few hundreds to the list. Two committees of twenty men each will LOST TO REDLANDS It Was a Good Game of Ball but Locals Were Defeated Although it was described as the best game of ball ever played on a Reldands diamond the Anaheim boys are not jubilating very much over Sunday's game as they held the short end of a 5 to 1 score. The special train, which it was proposed to run, was abandoned because sufficient tickets could not be sold to justify it, consequently the band was left behind. It was a swift game. The first five innings was a battle between two of the best amateur pitchers in the south, but in the sixth the Redlanders tapped Bleeker for two or three dink hits, and with the aid of a couple of errors got four men across the plate. That ended their rungetting but Anaheim succeeded in chalking up one in the seventh. The Redlands team is a swift one, three of its members being under contract to big league teams. One goes to New York, one to Brooklyn and the other to Kansas City. There will be another game on the home grounds Sunday. If the weather permits the new diamond will be so far advanced it can be used, but the park will not be completed. A circular track for motorcycle racing will be constructed around the park inside the stockade, and Anaheim expects to get some of the exciting races. C. E. Holcomb, president of the First National Bank, is offering $10 in cash prizes to pupils of Anaheim public school who show the most improvement in their penmanship during a three-months test from March until June next. The pupil showing the most improvement gets $5, the second $3, and the third $2. Mr. Holcomb explains conditions in an advertisement in another column. Look it up, boys and girls, and get busy.

ANAHEIM WINS IN THE ATHLETIC CONTEST SANTA ANA HIGH SCHOOL DEFEATED SATURDAY BY SCORE OF 71 TO 61 COUNTY TRACK MEET WILL BE HELD IN THIS CITY EARLY IN MARCH Preliminary to the annual Orange county high school track meet which will be held in this city in March the athletes of the Santa Ana high school came over Saturday afternoon to test the metal of their most dangerous rivals, and returned home satisfied that there were some weak spots in their line-up that must be strengthened before they could hope to win. The score board at the close of the games gave Anaheim 71 points and Santa Ana 61, which was a very comfortable margin. That Anaheim high school has not degenerated by the passing of the old timers who made the school famous by their superiority in all contests is demonstrated by the record made this season. It stands first that none of the contestants could approach as Utter, the Santa Anan, next highest, fell short of it eleven feet. One of the most exciting events of the day was the relay race, which was the last thing on the program. The score up to this point was 66 to 61 in favor of Anaheim, and by winning Santa Ana could tie the score. The runners were Kemp, Webb, Martenet and Douglas for Anaheim, and P. Plevin, Packard, Utter and E. Plevin for Santa Ana. Kemp took the lead on the start and had several feet to spare when he passed the race over to Webb. Both Webb and Martenet increased the lead and when the end of the third lap was reached it was a foregone conclusion that the Anaheim boys had won. With the fleet-footed Douglas on the home stretch and thirty feet to spare there was not a man in the Southland who could overhaul him. Ernest Plevin, who opposed him, is a sprinter of renown, but he could not prevent Douglas widening the gap a little. This gave Anaheim five more points, making the final score 71 to 61. The Orange county high school track meet will be held on the Anaheim grounds some time in March. Anaheim, Santa Ana, Orange, Fullerton and Huntington Beach will compete for honors, but it is evident the Anaheim boys will be able to give a good account of themselves. DEFER ACTION ON PROPOSED BOND ISSUE SUPERVISORS SUBMIT QUESTION OF CALLING ELECTION TO ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE CONSIDERATION OF HIGHWAY COMMISSIONERS REPORTS LAID ON SHELF FOR THE PRESENT Representatives from the beach towns appeared before the board of supervisors last Wednesday afternoon and turned loose a few brilliant chunks of oratory in favor of calling an election on the question of voting an additional half million dollar bond issue for highway purposes, approximately all of it to be used in extending the scenic boulevard along the coast line. The beachites appeared to believe their villages had been unjustly treated when the highway commissioners decided to follow El Camino Real and build the state road through the populous section of the county, and that nothing would salve their wounded FRIDAY, FEB. 26, DATE SET FOR ELECTION ANAHEIM STORM WATER DISTRICT SETS DATE TO VOTE ON DISINCORPORATION PETITIONS CONTAINING 1080 NAMES PRAYING FOR SAME, ACCEPTED BY BOARD OF TRUSTEES Trustees of the Anaheim Storm Water District met in adjourned session on Monday evening, with Trustees Nebelung, Fiscus and Pannier and Secretary Hans Weisel present. Minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved. At that meeting a resolution providing for the acceptance of the petition praying for the calling of an election to disincorporate the district was adopted. Upon a careful checking up of the petition by the trustees it was found that 1080 names of electors had signed the same. The trustees then adopted a resolution calling for an election to disincorporate, the date of which will be Friday, February 26, 1915. Two polling places have been provided. For precinct one, the polling place will be at the city hall. All voters residing in the district east of Los Angeles street, will vote at the city hall. For precinct two the polling place will be at the Redit machine shop on West Center street, near Clementina. All voters residing in the district west of Los Angeles street, will vote at that place. Commissioner Newland's minority report to the supervisors embodied all the claims of the beach delegation. Mr. Newland has kept pace with his seashore neighbors in developing ideas, and has fathered their demands before the highway commission and the board of supervisors. When the disposition of the $240,000 surplus came up for discussion, Mr. Newland in behalf of the coast towns, modestly asked for $160,000 of it for extension of the boulevard. For a few days that was the extent of their demands, but some beachte one day read the Hoosler Schoolmaster and decided that "Git a-plenty while you're a-gittin'", was an excellent motto to be guided by, consequently it was decided to relinquish a claim to any portion of the surplus and ask for half a million dollars for completion of their scenic road. It is understood that $400,000 will be sufficient for building the 32 1-4 miles remaining to be paved, but the extra hundred thousand can be handily used in constructing laterals. Considering that the supervisor districts in which this road is situated received more than their just proportions of the original highway fund this demand is likely to be treated as a joke by the balance of the county. Four of the most prominent boosters from the coast towns were present at the supervisors' meeting Wednesday. They were H. L. Heffner of Huntington Beach, J. A. Armitage of Sunset Beach, Lew Wallace of Newport Beach and J. P. Greeley of Balboa. They began proceedings by standing County Surveyor McBride up on the carpet and firing a few broadsides at him. They wanted to know why he had not made a report to the supervisors relative to a strip of the proposed road at Bolsa Chica so that condemnation proceedings could be taken and the last link in the boulevard right-of-way on question of calling an election on the question of voting an additional half million dollar bond issue for highway purposes, approximately all of it to be used in extending the scenic boulevard along the coast line. The beachites appeared to believe their villages had been unjustly treated when the highway commissioners decided to follow El Camino Real and build the state road through the populous section of the county, and that nothing would salve their wounded feelings so effectually as the speedy construction by the county of the proposed boulevard within view of the sounding sea.

Time 18.5 seconds. The 440-yard run was an easy victory for Douglas, who cantered over the distance in 55 seconds. Hill of Santa Ana was second. The aenemic Santa Anans were hopelessly outclassed in the shot put, the first three places being taken by Anahelmers. Chamberlain was first, his distance being 41 feet, 5-12 inches. Webb and Martenet was second and third. In the pole vault the county seaters were all to the good. Four Santa Anan's tied for first place with Dale Quarton leading for Anaheim. But in the discus throw Anaheim made up for it. Martenet heaved the plate 99 feet 8 1/2 inches and won first money, with Quarton a close second. The half mile race was a severe disappointment to the local boosters, Santa Ana winning both first and second. Packard was first with a record of 2:18, and Hill second. In the 50-yard dash Criddle of Santa Ana was first with Webb second, but in the 220-yard sprint Douglas captured the blue ribbon, Plevin of Santa Ana was second, and Webb third. Time for 50 yards, 5.4 seconds; for 220 yards, 26.2. Martenet won the 220-yard low hurdle race, his time being 27.3. Criddle and Plevin, both of Santa Ana, were second and third. In the broad jump Plevin, of the visiting team, won all the glory and had a few feet to spare. His best jump was 20 feet and 2 inches, while Douglas who followed him in the list, made 17 feet 10 1/2 inches. Burkett of Santa Ana was third. Doty of Anaheim, was the first performer in the javelin throw. He hurled the weapon 147 3-4 feet and then retired from the contest, as he was due for relay duty at the Mullinix drug store. He set a mark, however, Two polling places have been provided. For precinct one, the polling place will be at the city hall. All voters residing in the district east of Los Angeles street, will vote at the city hall. For precinct two the polling place will be at the Redit machine shop on West Center street, near Clementina. All voters residing in the district west of Los Angeles street, will vote at that place. The two polling places have been provided to allow all a chance to vote. At the trustee election, with only one voting place, many were deprived of the privilege of using their franchise, so crowded at times was the single polling place. By the establishment of two election boards all voters will have ample time to cast their ballots. The following citizens have been named to serve on the election boards: Precinct One—Judges, J. B. Rea and Wm. M. Gerdes. Inspectors—James McCarter and Henry Braden. Clerks—F. A. Backs, Jr., and Earl Abbey. Precinct Two—Judges, S. Lybarger and Dr. Stoll. Clerks—E. B. Johnston and Earl Dutton. Inspectors—Merton Skinner and Leo Sheridan. The polls will be open at 6 o'clock a.m. and will remain open until 7 p.m. It is estimated that at least 1500 votes will be polled at the forthcoming election, and it is computed by those who have made a canvass of the district that 90 per cent of the voters will vote to disincorporate the storm water district. The notice calling for the election will be found printed in another column of this issue of the Gazette. The Anaheim City Band will give a free concert at the high school auditorium to-morrow evening, Lincoln's birthday. Let everybody turn out and give the boys a royal welcome. They were H. L. Heffner of Huntington Beach, J. A. Armitage of Sunset Beach, Lew Wallace of Newport Beach and J. P. Greeley of Balboa. They began proceedings by standing County Surveyor McBride up on the carpet and firing a few broadsides at him. They wanted to know why he had not made a report to the supervisors relative to a strip of the proposed road at Bolsa Chica so that condemnation proceedings could be taken and the last link in the boulevard right-of-way secured. Mr. McBride replied that he was waiting for the recommendation of the highway commission. The board directed that Mr. McBride and Engineer Finley of the highway commission inspect the strip of road and make a report at the next meeting. The four delegates declared that the vote in their several districts was almost unanimous in favor of bonds. In response to a question by Chairman Talbert as to whether they would pull together in case an election for a bond issue we called, Lew Wallace said: "Four years ago we answered that same question. We said yes to it and made our words good. If this question comes to a vote in Newport I can answer for all but 9 votes. There are 325 votes there that I can guarantee will be cast in favor of the bond issue provided some definite understanding can be reached that there will be no back down on the proposition after election. But there are nine votes in Newport," he said regretfully, "that we cannot control. They have shown themselves unmanageable heretofore and may do it again." As this was almost 98 per cent of the total vote it was considered a pretty fair showing notwithstanding Mr. Wallace's grief because of the nine stray sheep. "There is no question of the people supporting this bond issue if it comes ACTION ON CASED BOND ISSUE SUBMIT QUESTION ELECTION TO ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE ON OF HIGHWAY ENTERPRISES REPORTS THE HELF FOR THE PRESENT Lines from the beach before the board of Wednesday afternoon a few brilliant chunks flavor of calling an election of voting an addition dollar bond issue purposes, approximately used in extending the road along the coast line. appeared to believe had been unjustly treat-highway commissioners El Camino Real and road through the populated county, and that salve their wounded to a vote," said Mr. Armitage. "The people of the county want more good roads. A bond issue of half a million dollars would give them all the roads they are asking for. If it were only sufficient to construct the coast road we would still ask for it. The expenditure of this money on roads now would knit the people together. It would amalgamate all sections of the county and moreover they would never feel the expense." At Huntington Beach, declared Mr. Heffner, the bonds would carry by a much greater majority than the previous issue did. The people were almost unanimously in favor of them. Mr. Heffner also sprung a new idea. He said the expenditure of this money along the coast would develop the cheap lands in that region and increase the assessed valuation of the county to such an extent that the extra tax from these lands alone would more than pay the interest and principal of the bond issue. Instead of being an added cost upon the taxpayers it would be a safe and wise investment, and would return much more to the county by reason of the advanced valuations of the real estate near the ocean. Chairman Talbert called upon Mr. Greeley of Balboa to develop his views on the subject. Mr. Greeley said the best he could do would be to reiterate what his neighbor, Mr. Wallace, had already advanced. Four years ago the question of a bond is MAJORITYREPORT ADOPTED BY A 2 TO 1 VOTE ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE HOLD BIGGEST MEETING IN ITS HISTORY YORBA LINDANS' HOSPITALITY OF THE GENUINE BRAND AND GUESTS ROYALLY ENTERTAINED By an emphatic vote of 16 to 8 the members of the Associated Chambers of Commerce at its meeting at Yorba Linda on Friday evening adopted the majority report of the highway commissioners, signed by R. J. McFadden and D. C. Pixley, and by a vote of 17 to 7 defeated the adoption of the minority report, signed by W. T. Newland, which was offered as a substitute motion. Lew Wallace, who offered the minority report for adoption, which also asked for an election to vote upon another bond issue of $500,000, at the final vote taken on the majority report, voted in favor of the same, which, according to parliamentary Newland's minority supervisors embodied all the beach delegation. Mr. Talbert pace with his sea in developing ideas, and their demands before commission and the board.

Mr. Greeley said the best he could do would be to reiterate what his neighbor, Mr. Wallace, had already advanced. Four years ago the question of a bond issue was a little uncertain but he believed there was no question the people would now support it. The highways built under the present system will be permanent. Balboa will rapidly develop. It has natural advantages that will bring outside capital in. That section would unanimously support the bonds. Mr. Armitage added a supplementary sentence to his former remarks to the effect that a large per cent of the increase in population along the coast was from Los Angeles county and the construction of the boulevard would be an inducement to thousands of others from that county to settle there. Chairman Talbert mentioned that his object in calling upon these representatives was to get an expression on the proposed bond issue from the beachites and to make certain that they would not fall down. It appeared that the beach people favored the bond election. In fact, with the exception of Lew Wallace's nine contrary neighbors the coast line people unanimously favored the proposition. After all the speakers had been heard the supervisors and the highway commission retired to the committee room where a star chamber session was held. After discussing the matter for an hour it was agreed to submit the question of the bond issue to the Associated Chambers of Commerce at Yorba Linda Friday night, where an expression of opinion could be had from representatives from every section of the county. It is not supposed, however, that the supervisors will consider themselves obligated by what they hear in those after dinner speeches. The two reports, submitted by the highway commission relative to disposal of the $240,000 surplus fund was also discussed but no decision was reached. It was decided not to take definite action on that matter until the bond proposition is disposed of. It is understood, however, that the majority report, submitted by Messrs. Lew Wallace, who offered the minority report for adoption, which also asked for an election to vote upon another bond issue of $500,000, at the final vote taken on the majority report, voted in favor of the same, which, according to parliamentary rules, gives him the right to call up the matter again at the next meeting. What the object is to again call the reports up for consideration is a matter for conjecture. Before the vote was taken on the reports, which was delayed by several attempts to amend, an amendment was offered to lay the matter over for consideration at some future meeting. This amendment was lost by a vote of 15 to 10. All parts of Orange county were represented at the meeting. Twenty-five members of the Associated Chambers were present in person or represented by proxy. Two hundred citizens of the county were present, and the meeting was, from the standpoint of representation, the best ever held since the organization of the Orange county boosters. The ladies of Yorba Linda prepared a banquet which, also, was pronounced par excellence, to which ample justice was done. Long tables were arranged in the new school house and literally groaned under their weight of good things. T. B. Welch of Yorba Linda made an address of welcome in which he extended the hospitality of this rapidly growing section to the Associated Chambers, and hoped all would thoroughly enjoy being present. He told of progress made in this beautiful foothill town, and said while the place was in its infancy it has the honor of entertaining the banner meeting of the organization. Mr. Welch grew eloquent in his welcoming address, and classed Yorba Linda as the biggest little town in the biggest little county in the state, and said that last year one bus was big enough to carry the children to school, but that this year they would need two. Five carloads of lemons are now shipped out each week. Mr. Wallace of Huntington Beach responded in a happy speech and marveled at the progress made in this northern section.

Question of the people bond issue if it comes The two reports, submitted by the highway commission relative to disposal of the $240,000 surplus fund was also discussed but no decision was reached. It was decided not to take definite action on that matter until the bond proposition is disposed of. It is understood, however, that the majority report, submitted by Messrs. Pixley and McFadden is favored by a majority of the board and will eventually be adopted. Why the board decided to defer action on these reports until after the representatives of the people had talked the matter of the bond issue over is not known. Whatever the action of the Associated Chambers or the supervisors on the proposed election it is a foregone conclusion that a two-thirds vote of the people of Orange county will not be polled at this time in favor of a $500,-000 bond issue, practically all of which would be spent in the two coast supervisor districts. That section of the county has already had more than its share, and the interior voters are dead against taxing themselves to give them more. Hon. and Mrs. L. H. Van Dyck, of Gardiner, Montana, were week end guests of Dr. and Mrs. F. E. Corwin. Mr. and Mrs. Van Dyck are in the habit of spending their winters in California. Last year they shipped their car to Seattle and toured California by auto. This year they motored through, making the trip from Gardiner to Los Angeles in ten days. They have at various times toured by automobile from San Francisco to San Diego and are more favorably impressed with the prospeous condition of Anaheim than any one place they have visited. Mr. Welch grew eloquent in his welcoming address, and classed Yorba Linda as the biggest little town in the biggest little county in the state, and said that last year one bus was big enough to carry the children to school, but that this year they would need two. Five carloads of lemons are now shipped out each week. Mr. Wallace of Huntington Beach responded in a happy speech and marveled at the progress made in this northern section. During his talk Mr. Wallace paid a compliment to the good roads system, and said without the paved highways it would be utterly impossible to hold meetings such as the one he was now attending. At the conclusion of the banquet, President Gustave Stern of Fullerton called the assemblage to order, and suspended the rules to give hearing to several gentlemen who were present on special business. Mr. Alderman of Los Angeles addressed the assemblage in reference to concerted action by representative bodies throughout Southern California against freak legislation. Bills are now up for consideration at Sacramento, he said, which are inimical to the best interests of the state of California. Mr. Allander wanted endorsement of his plans, as offered, but as the move would tread close to the lines of politics, no endorsement was given, but the same will be referred to a judiciary committee, which the chair later appointed, consisting of A. S. Bradford, Walted Eden and J. S. Smart. Hon. Clyde Bishop made a ringing speech condemning the proposed attempt of Los Angeles county to turn its storm waters into Alamitos bay. Should this be accomplished the silt deposited into the bay would, in a short time, completely fill up the same to our great injury. Then, perhaps, Continued on page six
