PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRY An institution that deserves the patronage of the people of this section is the packing plant of the Anaheim Beef and Provision company. This company began business hero only three months ago, and the fact that it has doubled its output within that short space of time, and is preparing to add to its buildings, indicates that it is acquiring a lengthening list of satisfied customers. The products of this plant, which include beef, pork, mutton, sausages, cured meats, etc., are declared to be the best on the local market. The company slaughters nothing but the best animals obtainable, they are all fattened before killing on home-grown feed, and they pass a rigid inspection before going into the hands of the butcher. The meats come fresh from the cooling rooms to the consumer, and the purchaser is guaranteed not only fresh and pure meat but meat from an animal that was free from blemish. The company has a large payroll and employs only local men. It buys in the local market to the fullest possible extent, and is establishing a market that will encourage the stock industry of this section. The company plans to co-operate with the ranchers and increase the production of cattle and hogs, and the manager announces that he will pay the highest market price for animals raised in this region. Twenty-four men are now employed publican leaders gleeful about the proposition is that they claim that the taking off of the duties has not cut the cost of living to the man in moderate means, or for that matter, to any one else, and that therefore the substitute, the income tax, falls as an additional burden, and not as one burden substituted for another. THE HAYTIAN PROTECTORATE Uncle Sam, policeman, seems to have plenty of work cut out for him. He is already standing guard over the Nicaraguan government, collecting and dispensing the customs of the Dominican republic and planning to restore order in Mexico. And on top of these tasks he is undertaking a new and momentous job in Hayti. The state department frankly announces that it proposes to establish a protectorate over the Haytiian republic for a period of ten years. Having suppressed the anarchy resulting from the assassination of the president—who himself had earned that fate by the slaughter of 150 of his political enemies—our naval authorities have presided over the inauguration of a new president, and our government expects the new Hatian government to agree to the proposed protectorate. It will go farther than any similar arrangement in our history. The plans contemplate complete control of Hayti's finances, in order to remove all temptation from professional revolutionists. It is the loot they fight for explains Secretary Lansing; their pretended revolutions are really unorganized enterprises which involve no question of principle. The people are said to be starving, though the country is naturally rich. It seems best to intrude, take charge of the country's resources, maintain order and nurse along what slight political possibilities the people have, for a few years, in order to save them from themselves. The company has a large payroll and employs only local men.

The company plans to co-operate with the ranchers and increase the production of cattle and hogs, and the manager announces that he will pay the highest market price for animals raised in this region. Twenty-four men are now employed at the plant, and the roll is growing as the business expands. These employees are all Anaheim people, and the money they receive remains here. To patronize the Anaheim Beef and Provision company means to encourage an industry that is proving of much benefit to Anaheim. In addition to this meats are pronounced the best on the local market. DOCTORING THE DEFICIT Serious consideration is being given by members of the House and Senate to a plan for reducing the income tax exemption from $4000 to $3000 for married men, and from $3000 to $2000 for single men. This was learned from an influential member of the senate finance committee, which in the upper house shapes all revenue measures. The necessity of some new source of revenue which would bring money into the national treasury, not in dribbles, but in millions of dollars, has been staring the administration in the face for months. It has been realized that, with the rapidly increasing deficit, despite the war revenue tax, and the fact that sugar goes on the free list on May 1, something must be done to augment the government's receipts. Merely re-enacting the war revenue bill will not be anything like enough. That this bill will be continued for at least another year, probably with substantial additions, has been admitted by Secetary of the Treasury McAdoo, while not a single member of congress thinks it can be dispensed with, save those who would restore the high tariff duties. Even the continuance of the present duty on sugar, which is now generally admitted to be more than a possibility, would not meet the situation. Figures on how much revenue would be brought in by the proposed Jowering of the exemptions from the income tax will be obtained in a few temptation from professional revolutionists. It is the loot they fight for explains Secretary Lansing; their pretended revolutions are really unorganized enterprises which involve no question of principle. The people are said to be starving, though the country is naturally rich. It seems best to intrude, take charge of the country's resources, maintain order and nurse along what slight political possibilities the people have, for a few years, in order to save them from themselves. It may be necessary, but it's a task that inspires little enthusiasm. Congress of course will have the last word to say about it, and there may be objection in the senate to ratifying the treaty. In any event, the Haltians and all other hot-blooded Americans to the south of us need have no fear that we mean to gobble up Hayti. They may take at 100 per cent valuation the assurance given by President Wilson in his Mobile speech that we are not seeking one foot of foreign territory. The one thing we are aiming at now in our national life is unity of spirit and culture. And the Haytians may rest assured that, even if we wanted to swallow any other group of Americans, we should not be inclined to choose them. The balance in the national treasury on September 4 was $61,922,932, as compared with $130,038,890 on the corresponding date two years ago under republican revenue laws and appropriations. The deficit for the first two months of the present fiscal year amounted to $30,003,152. OLD VETS MEET The Orange County Veterans' association met at Garden Grove for its annual gathering. One hundred of the old boys registered, and there was a large crowd made up of members of the families of the veterans. A short business session was held in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium in the morning at which the annual election was held. J. M. Talcott of Santa Ana was chosen president. He succeeds J. M., King of Garden Grove. Mrs. A. H. Coulter of Santa Ana was made first vice president and Mrs. Catherine Fisher of Santa Ana second vice-president. Rev. A. B. Markle of Anaheim is chaplain and A. B. Paul of Santa Ana was re-elected secretary. The next meeting will be held in Santa AMERICA FOR In a dispatch from arator Lawrence Y. Shaw gives utterance to the Republican party for next year. Says the America first, Americans. This is the only slogan with which our party is going into contest with the democrats: the election of a precedent Woodrow Wilson.

Even the continuance of the present duty on sugar, which is now generally admitted to be more than a possibility, would not meet the situation. Figures on how much revenue would be brought in by the proposed lowering of the exemptions from the income tax will be obtained in a few days, to give the senators and representatives considering this move an idea of whether it will be sufficient, or whether it would be necessary to go quite that far. It is pointed out, however, that as it is proposed to spend vastly increased sums at the next session of Congress in order to give the country an adequate army and navy, that it is hardly likely, if the plan meets with the approval of the administration at all, than any half-way measure will suffice. In discussing the proposal to force all married men whose total incomes amount to $3000 a year to pay income taxes and all single men whose incomes total $2000 a year, it was admitted by the senators and congressmen that it would be an extremely unpopular tax. They point out however, that it would not be an inequitable tax. They defend it on the ground that when nearly all the revenue save that from liquor and tobacco, was raised by customs duties, that these duties were paid by men with small incomes as well as those with large. Especially emphasis is laid on the sugar tariff in this respect, which taxed even the poorest man's table. Now they point out, it would not be unfair to make men with smaller incomes than $3000 and $4000 pay their share of the national government's expenses.

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS In a dispatch from Washington, Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman of Illinois gives utterance to the slogan of the Republican party for the campaign of next year. Says the dispatch: America first, America for Americans. This is the double barreled slogan with which the Republican party is going into the approaching contest with the democratic party over the election of a president to succeed Woodrow Wilson. "With the prospect of at least another year of the great war deepening daily the politicians of all parties are admitting that the paramount issues of the presidential campaign next year will be questions of national policy developed by the conflict in the Eastern Hemisphere. Republican leaders at Washington predict that the national convention of their party will put forth a platform declaring President Wilson's foreign policy a failure and pledging the republican party to carry out the following program: "Provision of an army and navy that will afford adequate protection to Americans at home and respect for the legitimate rights of Americans abroad. "Adoption of measures to compel the belligerents to keep hands off the innocent commerce of the United States. Exclusion from the United States of all representatives of the belligerent nations conducting improper propaganda, recruiting, interfering with American industry, and other..." "Provision of an army and navy that will afford adequate protection to Americans at home and respect for the legitimate rights of Americans abroad. "Adoption of measures to compel the belligerents to keep hands off the innocent commerce of the United States. Exclusion from the United States of all representatives of the belligerent nations conducting improper propaganda, recruiting, interfering with American industry, and otherwise violating the neutrality of the nation. "Adoption of an aggressive policy designed to enforce the pacification of Mexico. "Adoption of measures to revitalize the Monroe Doctrine and insure the Western Hemisphere from the menace of European intervention. Senator Sherman gave vigorous expression to these American nationalistic sentiments in his labor day speech in Chicago. He is the first republican candidate for the presidency to state a strong indictment of the Wilson policies, according to republican leaders, who now look to the Illinois senator to lead the fight against the administration. Leaders who looked upon Sherman as merely a possible favorite son and who have been devoting their attention to such candidates as Root, Weeks, Burton, Borah and Cummings, are now taking the Illinois senator into account as first grade presidential timber. Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Schneider and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mauer were visiting at Seal Beach and Long Beach Sunday. Mrs. J. W. Wallop and daughter, Brownle, who have been spending a couple of weeks at Balboa are at home again."

Woods, a steam engineer, has brought suit for $11,000 damages against Supervisors H. E. Smith, T. B. Talbert, William Schumacher, F. W. Struck and Jasper Leck as individuals. Woods alleges that on October 19 he fell through a defective bridge across a drainage ditch near Bolsa, and that he received permanent injuries to one leg. He seeks to hold the supervisors responsible for his injuries. The complaint in which Woods outlines his cause of action was filed Tuesday by Attorney F. C. Spencer. Woods declares he was crossing a bridge near Bolsa on Oct. 19, last, and it gave way with him. The supervisors, he says, had been notified that it was unsafe. William Falkenstein has received a postal card from his nephew, Eric Falkenstein, who writes from Northhausen, Germany, that he was wounded in the right elbow by a shrapnel shell at the battle of Lublin. Falkenstein was in Field Marshal Von Mackensen's army, and participated in the taking of Lenberg. Me was a member of the King's Grenadiers, one of the Kaiser's crack regiments. After being wounded he was transferred to the military hospital at Davzie, and was later transferred to Nordhausen, where his relatives reside. He is recovering and will soon rejoin the colors. He writes with his left hand, saying he finds it difficult to write without the use of his right hand. You have a hat? Anaheim Dye Works cleans hats.
