KETTNER DECIDES NOT TO RUN AGAIN CONGRESSMAN WILL RETIRE FROM OFFICE MARCH 4, 1917 ISSUES STATEMENT OF HIS POSITION, THANKS FRIENDS FOR HIS SUPPORT Congressman Kettner of San Diego has written the Gazette a letter in which he states he will not be a candidate for reelection to Congress from the 11th district next year. Mr. Kettner has hitherto made the statement that he would not be again a candidate, and he takes this method of reaffirming his position. He was elected over James C. Needham last year by a large majority, carrying every county in the district. He secured the democratic and progressive nominations, and was supported by those two parties against Needham, who was the republican candidate. Needham had represented this district in congress before, having been first elected in 1898. In the Federal census of 1900 his county was cut out of this district, and he represented the sixth district until three years ago. In the Federal census of 1910 Congressman Smith's county of Kern was cut out of the district, and Kettner was elected to succeed him, defeating S. C. Evans of Riverside, the progressive candidate. Kettner was re-elected last year by an overwhelming majority over Needham, Needham had moved to San Diego the less of politics. Also to extend my thanks to the editors of the papers who supported me, and who waged so effective a campaign in my behalf. As for those who differed with me, I feel that they did so conscientiously, and they have never been discriminated against in any way in the distribution of government publications or in my treatment of matters of interest to them. In making this decision, I do not consider that I am in any way disloyal to the democratic party or to our beloved president, feeling as I do, certain that President Wilson will not only be re-elected but that he will again have a sympathetic senate and house behind him in carrying out his progressive policies. WILLIAM KETTNER. ACT OF CONGRESS DECLARED UNCONSTITUTIONAL Another stupendous blunder has been added to the score of the congress at Washington. The law to prohibit future trading in cotton, enacted last year, has been declared unconstitutional by a federal court. A violation by congress of one of the simplest rules of law making is the basis for the decision. The constitution directs that all revenue measures must originate in the House of Representatives. The cotton futures law originated in the senate. By title it was "an act to tax dealing in cotton," etc. It has produced revenue. A plainer case of legislative botching is hardly conceivable. The court said it could do nothing but pronounce the law void. The decision unmercifully flays congress for its slovenly methods. "This act falls into the class of measures void because of the unworkmanlike way in which congress used the tools provided by the constituency." September.

In the Federal census of 1910 Congressman Smith's county of Kern was cut out of this district, and he represented the sixth district until three years ago. In the Federal census of 1910 Congressman Smith's county of Kern was cut out of the district, and Kettner was elected to succeed him, defeating S. C. Evans of Riverside, the progressive candidate. Kettner was re-elected last year by an overwhelming majority over Needham, Needham had moved to San Diego the year before, and while he had strong support and many friends, the fact that he had resided in the new district for so short a time militated against his change of election. Kettner's letter follows: San Diego, California. October 22, 1915. Editor Gazette: I would appreciate your giving the enclosed statement prominence in the columns of the Gazette, as I want my friends in your locality to know how I stand in this matter. Thanking you for this additional courtesy, I am, Cordially yours, WILLIAM KETTNER, Mr. Kettner's statement is to the following effect: There seems to be some question among my friends as to whether it is my intention to run for re-election to congress, and in justice to them, to the democratic party which nominated me, to the thousands of republicans, progressives, prohibitionists, socialists and non-partisans who also supported me, and to my business partner, who has carried on our business without complaint during my enforced absence—as well as in justice to the prospective candidates in the different parties—I feel that I should make this public announcement of my retirement from congress at the expiration of my present term, March 4, 1917. Shortly after my re-election, I made a statement to Mr. O. E. Tout, editor of the El Centro Morning Progress, which he published in his good paper at that time, that I did not think I would run again, and I recall making a similar statement to Mr. Clyde Bishop, of Santa Ana. I wish to re-affirm that statement at this time because I expect to leave for Washington within a few days, and as congress is likely to be in session until after the primary of July, 1916, I will not be able to return to San Diego until late in the summer or fall of that year. "Unless you enact this law," declared Representative Lever of South Carolina, house sponsor for the bill, "our people will go on suffering an annual loss of one hundred millions of dollars." Impassioned orators hailed the writing of the statute as the nation's salvation, and pictured its defeat as a "knife-thrust at the throbbing heart of the south." Yet in almost the same breath they voted for a bill the very title of which proclaimed its worthlessness. The machinery of law making is not a mere plaything. It is a powerful instrument controlling national destinies. Public welfare demands that its operation should not be entrusted to those who over and over again have demonstrated their utter unfitness for the responsibility. GETS SEVEN YEARS FOR BURGLARY AT STANTON Sheriff Jackson Thinks Mexican Gang Of Robbers Broken Up Ignacio Blanco was on Friday sentenced to seven years in Folsom penitentiary for assisting in the burglary of J. V. Richardson's store at Stanton last April. Castulo Medrano is also average of 88 per cent and Michigan severe of the season resultant that has not been conditions reported by 72 per cent and 62 per cent compared with 82 per cent in both Pennsylvania and the grape territory above average. EXPENSIVE ADMISSION Secretary of State has issued the follow reply to one by Chairman lan, of the state board the controversy about state commissions, so other appointive office Johnson administration. My attention has been statement of Mr. Neylan our four tables. Table that the appropriation maintenance of commons and other appointees two years, 1915-16 was more than the approver under the Gillett ad the same purpose for 1909-10. Will Mr. Neylan say ment is incorrect? The second table crease of over $250,000 priation for support offices for 1915-16 over 1909-10. Will Mr. Neylan say ment is incorrect? The third table show salary roll, increase number of employees 1915, as against September that in September, 1935 names on the staff which in that month are 171.60, and that in S it had increased to $188 and the number of persons had increased to 694 trial Accident Commission one employees on the roll; the San Francisco 767, when in September Gillett there were but railroad commission ber, 1910, eleven, and the highway commissio month 543 men on the fish and game commember, 1910, had forty against 103 last month. of the El Centro Morning Progress, which he published in his good paper at that time, that I did not think I would run again, and I recall making a similar statement to Mr. Clyde Bishop, of Santa Ana. I wish to re-affirm that statement at this time because I expect to leave for Washington within a few days, and as congress is likely to be in session until after the primary of July, 1916, I will not be able to return to San Diego until late in the summer or fall of that year. During both my campaigns, I stated to the people that regardless of politics, I would serve the interests of my district, and that as a business man—which is all I ever claimed to be—I would leave no stone unturned to properly present to congress our needs. I feel proud to think that every county in the district supported me when I ran for re-election, and I can conscientiously say that I have discharged to the beat of my ability the trust which they imposed in me. Whatever I have been able to accomplish for the district has been made possible through their continued loyal support and co-operation, and to them, more than to myself, is the credit due. During the two sessions which I have yet to serve, I ask that they still continue to give me this same cooperation, for until my retirement to private life, March 4, 1917, I will be your public servant and representative in Congress, and will need your support in order to push to completion the matters now pending which mean so much to the district. My interest and enthusiasm will in no way wane; on the other hand, I will re-double by efforts and I want my constituents to feel free to write me as they have always done whenever I can serve them. I want to especially thank the good women of the district who so loyally and unselfishly supported me, regard- GETS SEVEN YEARS FOR BURGLARY AT STANTON Sheriff Jackson Thinks Mexican Gang Of Robbers Broken Up Ignacio Blanco was on Friday sentenced to seven years in Folsom penitentiary for assisting in the burglary of J. V. Richardson's store at Stanton last April. Castulo Medrano is also serving seven years at San Quentin for complicity in the same deal. Medrano was brought down from the prison to testify against Blanco, and asked that Blanco be sent to Folsom as he felt satisfied that his partner in crime would watch for an opportunity to kill him if they were confined in the same prison. Although the convicted man wanted to go to San Quentin the judge decided to separate them by distance and booked him for Folsom. "With the conviction of Blanco," said Sheriff Jackson, "I am satisfied that the worst Mexican burglary gang this county ever had is broken up." This gang burglarized a store at Tustin, and I am satisfied also cleaned out a store at Delhi and another at Bolsa." The day after the burglary of the Stanton store Blanco left Los Alamitos, and that night tried to rob a store at Watts. A fight with officers ensued, and Blanco was shot in the hip. Los Angeles officers turned him over to Sheriff Jackson. GRAPE PRODUCTION The most important grape producing state, California, had in the census year 1909, approximately 144,000,000 bearing vines, almost two-thirds of the total number of bearing vines in the United States, states the government's monthly crop report for ANAHEIM GAZETTE Thursday, Oct. 28 September. These produced in the census year nearly 2,000,000,000 pounds of grapes, including raisin grapes to a total of about 169,000,000 pounds dried, and wine grapes yielding about 16,000,000 gallons. The rank at that time, probably not greatly changed since, of the other important grape-producing states was: New York, 14 per cent of all bearing vines; Michigan, 5; Ohio, 3.7; Pennsylvania, 2.4; Missouri, 1.4; Illinois, 1; New Jersey, 0.7; and North Carolina, 0.2. The approximate production of wine and grape juice in New York was 350,000 gallons, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and New Jersey 250,000, and North Carolina and Michigan 200,000, respectively 41 per cent of the bearing vines of the country east of the Rockies, Michigan 14 per cent, Ohio 11 per cent, Pennsylvania 7 per cent and Missouri 4 per cent. Reports received by the bureau indicate that the production of wine is being materially curtailed this year, owing principally to large accumulations of supplies carried over from previous years and to the threat of further legislation inimical to this industry. This will result in a large proportion of such wine grapes as are suitable for table use being marketed this year for the latter purposes. The condition of grapes in California September 1 was reported as 85 per cent of a normal crop, compared with 90 per cent in 1914 and a ten-year average of 88 per cent. In New York and Michigan severe freezes late in the season resulted in a poor prospect that has not been overcome, the conditions reported this month being 72 per cent and 62 per cent, respectively, compared with a ten year average of 82 per cent in both states. In Ohio and Pennsylvania and elsewhere in the grape territory the outlook is above average. be charged against the administration of Gage, Gillett and Pardee, in addition to the tax levies shown by the statutes the sums derived from railroad property taxes, poll tax collections, corporation license taxes and other sources. How much that will amount to, according to Mr. Neylan, can be ascertained in thirty minutes. Will he please tell the people? Does Mr. Neylan or any sane man think that I would be foolish enough to issue a statement of this character purposely when I might know that it would be disputed and disapproved at once? Now let Mr. Neylan tell the people just what the real increase will be in the cost of running the state during the first six years of Gov. Johnson's administration over the administration of Governor Gillett—yes as compared with the three previous administrations. Let the people know the facts. CLEANLINESS IS BASIS OF OUR NATIONAL LIFE Great things have small beginnings. A spectacle maker, Jan Leippersheim by name, living in Holland, invented a crude magnifying glass in 1608. Anton von Leuwenhoek, born in Delft, in 1632, improved this clumsy toy and evolved a compound microscope which has become the most valuable sanitary tool yet devised by man. That first microscope was as far removed from the high powered instrument of today as is the modern American from the original caveman. Yet by this faulty means, Leuwenhoek, naturalist, physician and botanist, discovered certain minute bodies which he called "little animals." He made drawings of these and today we know them for those useful friends and malignant enemies of man—bacteria. neys Clyde Bishop and J. C. Burke appeared for Shaffer. The case will probably go to the appellate court through habeas corpus proceedings. The fishermen contend that the law is unconstitutional. It was put through the last legislature largely through the influence of rod and reel men. LOS ALAMITOS MAN SUPPOSED TO BE DROWNED Disappears From Long Beach, Leaving Clothes in Bath House B. L. Draper, a Los Alamitos rancher, was either drowned while bathing at Long Beach Thursday, or disappeared leaving his clothes behind him. When first informed of the incident the police were inclined to believe that Draper had been drowned. They learned later, however, that he had $400 in cash when he left home, that neither the money nor any of his valuables were found in his clothes, and also that his Ford automobile could not be located in any of the places where he is accustomed to keep it. He left his brother's ranch at Los Alamitos about 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon, saying he was coming to Long Beach to take a swim in the hope that it would cure his cold. Obtaining a bath suit at the Long Beach bath house, he was assigned room No. 13 and has not been seen since. His clothes were reported unclaimed when the bath house was closed at 6:30 Thursday evening and were taken by the brother, S. T. Draper, the next day. There was no money or valuables about them. The brother's theory is that Draper swam too far and was caught in the undertow. His relatives are loathe to believe that he ended his life as he was particularly happy in temperament and never hinted at such a tragic EXPENSIVE ADMINISTRION Secretary of State Frank C. Jordan has issued the following statement in reply to one by Chairman John F. Neylan, of the state board of control, in the controversy about expenses for state commissions, state boards and other appointive offices under the Johnson administration: My attention has been called to the statement of Mr. Neylan. I have given our four tables. Table No. 1 showed that the appropriation in 1915 for maintenance of commissions, boards and other appointive officers of the two years, 1915-16 was over $2,600,000 more than the appropriation in 1909 under the Gillett administration for the same purpose for the two years 1909-10. Will Mr. Neylan say that that statement is incorrect? The second table showed an increase of over $250,000 in the appropriation for support of elective state offices for 1915-16 over that made for 1909-10. Will Mr. Neylan say that that statement is incorrect? The third table showed in detail the salary roll, increase in salaries and number of employees for September, 1915, as against September, 1910, also that in September, 1910, there were 365 names on the statutory pay roll which in that month amounted to $71,171.60, and that in September, 1915, it had increased to $180,340.08 a month and the number of persons on the roll had increased to 694. That the Industrial Accident Commission had ninety-one employees on the September pay roll; the San Francisco harbor board 787, when in September, 1910, under Gillett there were but 333, that the railroad commission had in September, 1910, eleven, and last month 112, the highway commission had last month 543 men on the roll. That the fish and game commission in September, 1910, had forty-three employees against 103 last month. The motor veerage of 88 per cent. In New York and Michigan severe freezes late in the season resulted in a poor prospect that has not been overcome, the conditions reported this month being 72 per cent and 62 per cent, respectively, compared with a ten year average of 82 per cent in both states. In Ohio and Pennsylvania and elsewhere in the grape territory the outlook is above average. We spend our days surrounded by another world, a living-world of countless billions, invisible to the naked eye, silent, tireless, destroying the living, consuming the dead useful in the sciences and arts, yet often followed by a train of sickness, suffering and death. A curious paradox this, yet bacteria are at once the greatest friends and the flarest foes of every living thing. Not animale, as Leuwenhoek thought, but vegetables, bacteria consist of two classes, those which prey on living things and those which reduce to their original minerals, fluids and gases, every dead thing which they attack. They are of various shapes, round like marbles or straight like little sticks. They grow in clusters, chains and in pairs. They are ubiquitous. The dusty air, the earth and its waters, the interior of animals and plants all contain them. They cause the fermentation of foods, they make cheese they produce disease and some of them when killed and injected into an animal protect it against the very disease which they would have produced if living. Many of them live as harmless creatures in the body of an animal for years, only to kill their host when the opportunity presents. Their study has given birth to a science, bacteriology, one of the foundation stones of public health. Their mere presence does not necessarily produce disease. Recalling the parable of the sower, some bacteria fall by the wayside, some fall upon stony places, and some fall in good ground and bring forth the fruit of suffering, perhaps of death. A normal, temperate life, free from the gluttony of idleness or overwork, the sound mind in the sound body, a cheerful, normal environment, these form the stony places in which bacteria take no root. The depraved appetites of mind and body, the dark and sorid atmosphere of penury, the nerve racking and strength undermining trades, these prepare the good ground. The great weapon against bacteria.

That the fish and game commission in September, 1910, had forty-three employees against 103 last month. The motor vehicle department, sixty-one last month. That these six departments had 1627 men on the roll; 1401 were working for new commissions. It also showed that in seventy-six offices under Gillett in September, 1910, there were but 2845 men, whereas in 1915 in the same month 4843 were drawing pay and as a result the increase in the pay roll last month over September, 1910, in these departments was $197,757.73 which would mean an annual increase of over $2,300,000. Will Mr. Neylan say that these statements are not correct? The statements do not give all the increase in expenditures for salaries and wages nor the total increase in the number of employees in the past four years and ten months. The fourth statement related to tax levies during the administrations of Governors Gage, Pardee, Gillett and Johnson. The figures given were taken from the several tax levy acts in the statutes of the state. The statement was before issuance submitted to officials familiar with the subject and its correctness certified to. The statement followed the statute and both are correct so far as the statute goes, but the statute does not go far enough in that it does not give the true facts as they now exist because of a change in the system of collecting taxes in 1910, and undoubtedly there should suffering, perhaps of death. A normal, temperate life, free from the gluttony of idleness or overwork, the sound mind in the sound body, a cheerful, normal environment, these form the stony places in which bacteria take no root. The depraved appetites of mind and body, the dark and sorid atmosphere of penury, the nerve racking and strength undermining trades, these prepare the good ground. The great weapon against bacteria is cleanliness. The mastery over premature death lies to a great measure In our own hands. Clean persons, clean habits, clean cities, clean workshops and clean lives are the makers of public health. The United States Public Health Service and other sanitary bodies of this country are gradually bringing these facts home to the general public. In this way cleanliness is becoming more general, and the span of life in America is gradually being lengthened. All of which is largely due to the microscope. TESTING THE LAW The first appearance in court of the case that is meant to test the new state law prohibiting the use of a seine within 750 feet of a wharf was at Newport Beach Wednesday when R. J. Shaffer, a fisherman, was found guilty of breaking that law. Shaffer was arrested by Deputy Fish and Game Commissioner Pritchard of Los Angeles by an arrangement under which Pritchard was present when Shaffer took his sein out. Justice Goopper of Newport Beach found Shaffer guilty and fined him $10, which Shaffer did not pay. Attorney Duke and District Attorney West were present in the trial, representing the state. Duke is the state commission's attorney. Attor- At an adjourned meeting of the chamber of commerce at Brea Wednesday night that body, on a vote, requested its president to appoint a committee to circulate a petition for signers, asking the county board of supervisors for an election on the question of incorporating Brea as a city of the sixth class. This question has been under consideration for a long time. It has been discussed at almost every meeting of the Chamber for many months, and although it was known that there was some opposition to the movement, the sentiment expressed was always strongly in favor of incorporation. Inasmuch as it seems the opposing side did not see fit to attend the meetings and give their views and contentions publicly, there was no way of determining how strong and well founded is this opposition other than to let the prevailing sentiment rule and seek an election, that the matter might be decided at the polls. There are now more patients at the Orange county hospital on the state highway north of Santa Ana than ever before during its fourteen months of operation, according to Dr. Zaiser, who is in charge. Including the tubercular ward there are about fifty patients, one third of whom are Mexicans. The sickness ranges from minor illness of a few days' duration, to tuberculosis. There are also a few broken legs and arms which are being healed. Besides the hospital proper, there are about 25 inmates of the county poor farm adjoining.
