RESTORING THE SUGAR DUTY With the end of the war yet a remote possibility, treasury officials are worrying over the apparent deficit in revenues. Customs receipts for the last fiscal year amounted to $209,268,107—or about $11,000,000 under the estimates made by Secretay McAdoo, and $82,-000,000 below the amount received in 1914. It became known this week that many treasury officials are convinced that it is necessary for congress to restore the old duty on sugar the next session. Sugar becomes free next year, whereas in the days when it paid duty it brought in about $62,000,000 a year. Enactment of the free raw sugar schedule was one of the blunders of the present democratic administration, and aimed a blow at the industry in this county, where five sugar mills, representing an investment of $5,000,000 will soon begin this season's operations. As free raw sugar is imported only by the sugar trust, this refund of $62,000,000 in duties goes into the pockets of millionaire sugar producers. This is a net clean-up to the sugar trust, for the price of sugar has not been lowered by the reduction in the sugar tariff, and free sugar next year threatens the extermination of this great industry. PROTEST AGAINST BROADWAY PARKING Property Owner has Some Interesting Facts to Present to the People Editor Gazette: Of all the ridiculously absurd propositions that have ever been presented to the people of Anaheim that of parking the center of Broadway is the limit. I cannot see how anyone possessed of his right senses could conceive of such a thing. Why the street would be almost entirely spoiled as a thoroughfare and how, or by whom, if such a foolish thing should obtain, would it be cared for? It would keep an army of men, in addition to our standing army, constantly employed to properly care for it. And such a garden, or whatever name it would go by, if not properly cared for, instead of a thing of beauty or pleasant attraction, would be a dirty, unsightly, affair—yes, a veritable eyesore. Leave it to the property owners of that street and see how many are willing to have such a nuisance established. A few years ago Broadway east of the Santa Fe railroad, was not wide enough to suit the city authorities, so they had the beautiful walnut trees that were on the people's property cut down and hauled away, but they left the stumps, although widened the street. The trees that were a source of income to the people were destroyed, but the people had to pay for the removal of the stumps. Now they want to plant them in the middle of the street. Sounds sensible, don't it? And they want to put fancy lights all up and down the parking, and that expense would be saddled upon the property owners. Or do the city dads, with their wonderfully fertile brains, intend going down into their pockets to help pay for their increases in smog. WATER COMPANY RECIVES Supt.

As free raw sugar is imported only by the sugar trust, this refund of $62,000,000 in duties goes into the pockets of millionaire sugar producers. This is a net clean-up to the sugar trust, for the price of sugar has not been lowered by the reduction in the sugar tariff, and free sugar next year threatens the extermination of this great industry. If the democrats now see their folly, and have agreed to restore the tariff on raw sugar, why do they not go a step further and restore the duty on citrus fruits, walnuts, and other California products, which are now menaced by the Underwood free trade tariff bill? In November, December and January last, French walnut growers unloaded in the New York market more than one million dollars' worth of walnuts in each of these three months, cutting the price from 15 to 12 cents per pound, and dealing the greatest blow to the California walnut industry it ever sustained. Let the democrats get busy and restore the tariff, or it will most certainly be restored by the next republican administration. Free trade may be a splendid thing for the foreign manufacturer and producer, but it spells ruination to local industries and California was dealt a staggering blow by the Underwood bill. Repeal it and let us have a little prosperity, instead of a continuation of these democratic hard times. The present walnut crop maturing upon the trees promises to be the largest in the history of that industry, but with the menace of French importation, the outlook is not at all satisfactory. IT COMES HIGH The recent session of the legislature cost $326,978.29 according to figures compiled by State Controller Chambers, Secretary Smith of the Senate and Chief Clerk Mallory of the Assembly. Of this total, the Assembly spent $147,058.58 and the Senate, $85,706.02. Here is the way the segregations showed in the senate: Per diem for members, $40,000; mileage, $3,803.40; salaries for officers and clerks, $43,-283.00; contingent expenses $5,919.65. The assembly spent, per diem for members, $80,000; mileage, $7,380.- were a source of income to the people were destroyed, but the people had to pay for the removal of the stumps. Now they want to plant them in the middle of the street. Sounds sensible, don't it?

Or do the city dads, with their wonderfully fertile brains, intend going down into their pockets to help pay for their ingenious device of spoiling the only street of proper width in the city? BROADWAY PROPERTY OWNER APPRAISER QUICK GETS DISMISSAL Senator Anderson Will in Future do Work of Inheritance Tax Collector County Clerk Williams on Tuesday received the following letter from Controller J. S. Chambers at Sacramento. "Sacramento, Cal., July 3, 1915. "To W. B. Williams, "County Clerk of Orange County: "On June 17, I notified Mr. J. G. Quick that his services as state inheritance tax appraiser would terminate, for good and sufficient reasons, none of which, I wish to add, reflect upon him.. Mr. Quick, however, has failed to acknowledge my letter, and I understand has been appointed in and has noted in certain estates, despite his removal. "This is to notify you that he was officially removed upon the date in question, and any action as appraiser he may have taken since then is illegal. Will you be kind enough to govern yourself accordingly? "Yours truly, "J. S. CHAMBERS, "State Controller." County Clerk Williams immediately notified the judges of the superior court in accordance with the terms of the letter. Quick was appointed inheritance tax collector three years ago as an understudy to Senator Anderson. It seems to have been the purpose of the state administration that he should act only in case of Anderson's absence from the county, or his inability to perform the duties of the office. It is said that owing to political differences between Judge West and Senator Anderson, West appointed Quick when Anderson was ready to serve, Charge to Joint Work Division box Putting floor in div (23 sks cement) Zanjero for Yorba Llake Cement Account.

Plep dent; Theodore THREE CROPS AT ONE TIME William Matlock, of Selma has a Valencia orange tree in his yard from which he has picked oranges of three different years' crops. Two of these crops, the fruit of 1913 and 1914, are perfect—ripe, delicious tasting specimens of fruit—while the fruit of 1915 is yet green. The tree is unprotected in the yard, and ever since it originally came into bearing there has never been a day in the year on which Mr. Matlock could not go out and pick fine, ripe oranges for his friends. The winter frosts do not seem to have affected even the fruit of 1913, which has now been hanging ripened on the tree for two years. In fact, this fruit seems to excel the flavor of the 1914 crop, which hangs beside that of 1913 and 1915. Dr. and Mrs. G. R. Peas of Redwood Falls, Minnesota, Mr. and Mrs. C. F.

According to the report of County Bee Inspector J. E. Pleasants, filed with the county clerk Saturday, three out of eight colonies of bees inspected in various parts of the county during the month of June were found to be free of European foul brood. The three colonies are owned by George Harris, Aliso canyon; Oliver Adkinson, Trabuco canyon, and Gus Baum, Santa Ana. Harris has 190 hives, Adkinson 20 and Baum 185. European foul brood was found in 15 out of 85 alves owned by Charles Baker of Orange; five out of 25 owned by D. C. Pixley, Orange; five out of 85 owned by Mrs. R. Shaw, Black Star canyon; 60 out of 185 owned by L. L. Sweet, Olinda and ten out of 150 owned by A. Seligman, of Fullerton. Inspector Pleasants states in his report to the supervisors that all the infected colonies are now being treated. George Eastland and Robert Ingram went down to San Diego Saturday.

Not only is living a constant exercise of force, but life itself that within our bodies, is a resultant of conflicting forces. Even the great religions, those the most pacific, have been spread quite as much by force as by persuasion, as witness Constantine and Charlemagne. Law, a growth, has been evolved out of strifes, and even international law, what there is of it, represents the equilibrium established by balancing forces, rather than any zone of spontaneous consent. Not only is the proposition that force has never settled anything absurd, but it conveys a peril. Its acceptance by any majority of men would transform a nation into a soft-shell crab, would leave it all to the mercy of the armed men of evil, the pirates, burglars, savages, soldiers, militaristic monarchs. It would divide the world into Chinas and Japan. The truth is that this is a world of force, that all life is conflict. The fallacy of Miss Addams proceeds from her feminine and sentimental estimate of force as inherently evil, and of conflict as essentially unreasonable. We escape from pessimism by another ladder than that which Miss Addams demands the world shall try. Peace is not the solution, whereas the triumph of higher forces over lower is. Physical life is such a triumph, so is mental life, so is national life, so is the conquest by civilization over lower forces, so are evolution, progress, in fact all change. It is too late in the day, what with modern science, knowledge of history, to try to have us believe that force never settled anything. So far as anything is ever settled in the world of change, force is the settler. And to comprehend as much does not require even the assumption of good and evil opposites and the vanquishment of the No Less. Also Tailoring GENUINE Baluiag Bental Hat--Something New in Panamas. Harry E. Carter Next to Odd Fellows Hall HAIRY VETCH SEED Decreased Imports Result in Curtailment of Normal Supply The greater part of the hairy vetch seed used in the United States has been imported from Russia and Germany, the annual importations increasing from less than 100,000 pounds in 1906 to over 2,000,000 pounds in 1914. On account of the conditions resulting from the European war only 179,000 pounds of seed were imported between November 1, 1914 and May 15, 1915, and there seems to be little prospect of more coming in before seeding time this fall. This will result in only a small proportion of the normal supply of hairy vetch seed being available for this year's sowing. While the domestic production of hairy vetch seed has increased for a number of years, it has not increased in proportion to the demand, and the price of the seed has constantly advanced as its use has become more general. Farmers who have hairy vetch growing are urged by the specialists of the department of agriculture to save their own supply of seed this year so that they may be able to continue the use of this valuable crop. It is not to be expected, however, that prices higher than those of last year will be obtained, as the high price of the seed under normal conditions in recent years has been the chief factor in limiting the use of hairy vetch in the past. In harvesting the seed crop it should be cut with a mowing machine when the oldest pods are fully ripe. Life, so is national life, so is the conquest by civilization over lower forces, so are evolution, progress, in fact all change. It is too late in the day, what with modern science, knowledge of history, to try to have us believe that force never settled anything. So far as anything is ever settled in the world of change, force is the settler. And to comprehend as much does not require even the assumption of good and evil opposites and the vanquishment of the latter by the former. We can satisfy our minds by believing in a perpetual struggle toward higher forms and the gradual suppression of the less higher by the more high. But a quietism such as Chinese philosophy imposes, such as Miss Addams would have prevail, is not a higher form, is not fitted to survive and will become the victim of the really higher form that is efficient, that can impose its will. The world's hope lies not in quietism, but in armed righteousness, in force that is not only good but also strong, and by its strength able to beat down evil, to terminate injustice, to exalt the best. To adopt the philosophy of Miss Addams, of Norman Angell, of Tolstoi, would be to resent not evil, to ensure evil's enthrancement, to establish the enslavement of the good and weak to the band and strong. PRACTICED WITHOUT LICENSE The questions involved in the prosecution of C. T. Cleland and Gunning Butler of Santa Ana, each accused of practicing the treatment of the sick without first getting a state license are of state-wide importance, and have been raised in various prosecutions of chiropractors in various places in the state. Cleland's preliminary examination has been held, and he is awaiting trial in the superior court on the charge which is a high misdemeanor. Butler's preliminary examination will come up before Justice Cox on July 19. The arrests followed complaints filed by a representative of the State Medical Board. On August 10 the new drugless act will go into effect. The prosecutions that have been started are under the present law, under which the State Medical Board has a right to recognize or not recognize any school of the treatment of the sick. Chiropractors have never been recognized. Under the law that is to go into effect, ``` LODGE ORGANIZED New Fraternal and Mutual Benefit Order in Anaheim A new mutual benefit and fraternal order has been established in Anaheim and the newly elected officers will be installed at Eagles' hall Sunday, July 11. It is a branch of the Sons of Herman. The officers are: Max Junge president; A. Piepenbrink, vice president; Theodore Roberts, secretary; Joe Lautenbach, master of finance; Max Salschelder and R. Schellens, trustees, and F. Lautenbach, guard. The lodge starts with a membership of thirty. The installing officers who will start the new lodge are Julius Van Nastitz, grand president, San Francisco; Otto Dreisler, ex-grand president, Los Angeles; B. Fedde, grand secretary, San Francisco; and Ed Stuetz, grand guide, Los Angeles. One hundred and fifty members of the order from other points in Southern California will be present and welcome the new members into the fraternity. Sunday evening a substantial feed will be served which will include refreshments of various kinds. The locals expect to treat their guests in a hospitable fashion. EPISCOPAL CHURCH SERVICES AT BUENA PARK The Rev. David Todd Gillmor of St. Michael's Episcopal church will hold the service of the Holy Communion and preach a sermon in the Congregational church, Buena Park, Sunday, July 11th, at 8:30 a.m. W. M. Chambers left Monday for San Francisco where he will see the sights of the big fair. Miss Lillian Bennerscheldt, who has been visiting in Berkeley for two months past, is at home again. In harvesting the seed crop it should be cut with a mowing machine when the oldest pods are fully ripe. The wheels of the mower, as well as the horses, must not be allowed to pass over the cut vetch as otherwise much of the seed will be shattered out as the pods break open readily when dry, the greatest care should be taken in curing and handling to avoid loss of seed. It can be threshed with an ordinary grain thresher by lowering the concaves sufficiently to avoid cracking the seed. Yields of from three to ten bushels per acre of hairy vetch seed may be expected in addition to the rye or other grain with which it is grown. A complete separation of the hairy vetch seed, from rye or wheat, is best made by use of a spiral separating machine known in Europe as a Schnectentrieur, which is now manufactured for sale in this country. For local seeding, however, a complete separation is not necessary and the desired proportion of vetch and rye or wheat can be obtained by the use of an ordinary farming mill. A WORLD OF FORCE Miss Jane Addams oracularly remarks: "Force has never settled anything." She is of Quaker origin, but her father was an Abolitionist, a friend of Lincoln. And she must know that force settled the slavery question and wrought this country's undying unity, after everything in the way of reason and of righteous propaganda had failed. That this is a world of force, biol- before Justice Cox on July 19. The arrests followed complaints filed by a representative of the State Medical Board. On August 10 the new drugless act will go into effect. The prosecutions that have been started are under the present law, under which the State Medical Board has a right to recognize or not recognize any school of the treatment of the sick. Chiropractors have never been recognized. Under the law that is to go into effect, the state board must recognize the school of treatment, but applicants for license must be examined by the State Medical Board. Friends of local chiropractors fear that a chiropractor's chances of passing the state examination will be a good deal like the chances of the camel with the needle's eye. Since both Cleland and Butler have made many friends in their practice a good deal of interest has been expressed in the cases. Butler conducts the Santa Ana Treatment rooms, where various treatments, such as massage, electricity and baths are given.

A program of speeches, music and races was enjoyed by the participants. Parties came from Long Beach, Santa Ana, Montebello and many other towns to celebrate at this pleasant place. The crowd was estimated to have been larger than that attending the Taxpayers' picnic recently held there. Some placed the figures at fully 2000 persons. The county board of education has issued teacher's certificates to Robert D. McGee of Santa Ana, A. S. Fulton of Los Angeles, formerly a teacher in Iowa, and M. W. Perry, a teacher at the state school at Whittier and formerly a teacher in Ohio and Idaho. The three men started in the examinations last Monday. Six women who started with them lost out on arithmetic. The issuance of certificates gives these three the right to teach in the grammar schools of this county. Coyote well 2-4 of the Standard Oil Company at Brea is now flowing 800 barrels of 21½ gravity oil daily and promises to be one of the real big producers of the entire Brea field. The bringing in of this excellent well will result in immediate increased activities in that locality and if the oil market was anywhere near normal the work of development would go to the extreme limit. But that things are getting quite busy in that section of the field is clearly evident. The Standard is now rigging up for well No. 6, the Union has just put another well on the drill and is staking off the location for still another. The Amalgamated is also opening up for increased operations. According to the lingerie advertisements, when a girl says she has "nothing to wear" take her at her word.—Macon Telegraph.
