OFFICIAL LINES FOR NEWPORT HARBOR PROCEEDINGS BEFORE THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON RIVERS AND HARBORS CONGRESSMAN KETTNER PRESENTS THE CASE AND ARGUES FOR ADOPTION An account of the proceedings before the House Rivers and Harbors committee relative to the establishment of a harbor at Newport Beach, has been forwarded us by Congressman Kettner. In his argument before the committee Mr. Kettner said in part: Those members of the committee who were in California last year will remember that we left Los Angeles in machines and drove through Orange county to Newport, where we not only had a view of the harbor from the club house, but if you will remember we were taken in a launch over the harbor. With your permission I will go into details and give some of the facts regarding this project, especially for the benefit of those who did not have the pleasure of visiting California last year. I feel certain that after listening to these facts the committee will be ready to grant the request of the people of Newport Beach. The city of Newport Beach, Cal., has applied for the establishment of harbor lines in Newport Bay, Cal. In paragraphs 1 to 8 of the statements of local residents, that the harbor is capable of commerce now as then. Newport Bay is also a fishing harbor. The chief of engineers states. The underlying purpose must be a real estate proposition of some kind. For this opinion it is believed there is no adequate foundation. The associated chambers of commerce of Orange county, California, in a letter of November 24, 1911, have made a detailed statement to the engineer office at Los Angeles, Cal., of agreements consummated by the harbor committee looking to the conveyance to the proper public bodies of certain lands bordering on Newport Harbor, conditional on the voting of bonds for the development of the harbor. If this be called a real estate scheme, as is any project of harbor development which will benefit the public. The purpose of teh obtaining of these pieces of land is in order that there may be sufficient public frontage to insure that the harbor in its development shall not be controlled by private interests. Such a real estate scheme therefore should be furthered instead of hampered by the Federal government. The chief of engineers states, further, in paragraphs 9 and 10: The public generally has a wrong idea of a harbor line and thinks that the United States absolutely and forever releases all jurisdiction all land between the harbor line and the shore. The war department, in my opinion, ought not to further this erroneous idea. Circular 9, office of the chief of engineers, dated October 24, 1914, very effectually corrects any such misapprehensions. This circular is, of course, on file in the office of the district engineer officer, and undoubtedly receives as full publicity as a harbour against them.

I feel certain that after listening to these facts the committee will be ready to grant the request of the people of Newport Beach. The city of Newport Beach, Cal., has applied for the establishment of harbor lines in Newport Bay, Cal. In paragraphs 1 to 8 of the memorandum to the Judge Advocate General, prepared by the Chief of Engineers under date of January 18, 1915, is given a brief and clear history of the case, as follows: The question of establishment of harbor lines at this place was first considered in 1909 on a request from the trustees of the city of Newport Beach, Cal. The district officer recommended favorable consideration, but this office concluded that "under existing conditions, their establishment is not demanded for the preservation and protection of Federal interests, certainly not to such an extent as to warrant the expenditure of any moneys of the United States for that purpose." The river and harbor act, February 27, 1911, authorized an examination and survey of the harbor, and the resulting reports are contained in House Document No. 42, Sixty-third Congress, first session, copy herewith. The conclusion of the chief of engineers, as stated on page 2, being unfavorable to improvement by the United States. The present proceedings for establishment of harbor lines are based upon a letter from the district officer, September 20, 1912, in which he reports that in his opinion the establishment of harbor lines in Newport Bay is essential to the preservation and protection of that harbor, and his request for authority to submit a description of the lines thought necessary was approved by this office September 28, 1912. The chief of engineers was not satisfied that present conditions were such that the establishment of harbor lines was essential to its preservation and protection, and in fifth indorsement, August 20, 1914, requested further explanations. The district officer replied September 15, 1914, substantially as follows: "There is little commerce at present, but improvements planned by local interests will develop new ever releases all jurisdiction to all land between the harbor line and the shore. The war department, in my opinion, ought not to further this erroneous idea. Circular 9, office of the chief of engineers, dated October 24, 1914, very effectually corrects any such misapprehensions. This circular is, of course, on file in the office of the district engineer officer, and undoubtedly receives as full publicity as a harbor line, if established. To recapitulate, the facts are as follows: First: That for three years there was an average of 500 steamers landing at this port, with cargoes both ways. Second. The railroad connecting this port with Santa Ana, the county seat of Orange county, was purchased by one of the big railroad corporations and the tracks removed, which action destroyed the commerce of the port. Third. That there are on file in the department office, numerous letters and petitions. It is very evident upon examination that men of the standing of those who have signed these communications are not fostering a mere real estate scheme. A little further investigation into the conditions of lands in Orange county will show that there is very little of it that is not already planted; in fact, that intensive farming is more nearly practiced in Orange county than in any other county in California. Fourth. That these harbor lines were considered necessary by three different district officers to-wit: Capt. C. T. Leeds, Lieut. Col. C. R. McKinstry, and Maj. Raymond. Fifth. The railroad, removal of which diverted the commerce of Newport Harbor, is now rebuilt, and the papers on file show that the people are willing to spend their own money to bring back the commerce which has been lost. It is also shown that the county of Orange will undertake to vote bonds after the city of Newport has made the first showing. The fact is also shown that the people of Newport have been trying to reestablish their harbor ever since the railroad was first taken away from them. Sixth. The fact is also shown that the department has acknowledged the necessity for recognition by already having issued eight separate permits. Mr. Chairman, I ask the committee..." The chief of engineers was not satisfied that present conditions were such that the establishment of harbor lines was essential to its preservation and protection, and in fifth indorsement, August 20, 1914, requested further explanations. The district officer replied September 15, 1914, substantially as follows: "There is little commerce at present, but improvements planned by local interests will develop new commerce. Local developments in building operations have begun and land values are increasing, low shores make reclamation by bulkheading and dredging necessary, and a fixed United States harbor line is better than tentative lines of the local office for controlling permits." Eight permits for bulkheads and dredging have been issued, and their limits, with dates, etc., are shown on small tracings herewith. The result of all this has been the preparation of plans for a system of harbor lines, which is shown on the accompanying print. Certain views, expressed in the rest of the above mentioned memorandum, arise, it is believed, from a misapprehension of facts. Effort will be made later in this paper to correct this misapprehension. The commerce of Newport subsequently increased, and for the next three years there were two steamers per week loading and unloading full cargoes at this port. In 1891 commerce had increased to such an extent that there were three regular steamers per week, and also many tramp steamers, which cared for additional traffic. During the next five years, or until 1899, the commerce handled at this wharf was about 550 cargoes per year. It is a physical fact, established by vote bonds after the city of Newport has made the first showing. The fact is also shown that the people of Newport have been trying to reestablish their harbor ever since the railroad was first taken away from them. Sixth. The fact is also shown that the department has acknowledged the necessity for recognition by already having issued eight separate permits. Mr. Chairman, I ask the committee to take up this proposition at its present session, as the people of Newport Beach are entitled to immediate relief. I therefore move the adoption of the following resolution: That the secretary of war is hereby authorized and directed to fix and establish pierhead and bulkhead lines, either or both, at Newport Harbor, Cal., in accordance with plan dated United States Engineer office, Los Angeles, Cal., March 25, 1913, and entitled "Newport Bay, Cal., showing harbor lines, beyond which no piers, wharfs, bulkheads, or other works shall be extended or deposit made, except under such regulations as shall be prescribed from time to time by the secretary of war." CHICKENS, COWS, GARDENS IN SUMMER SESSION How to raise chickens as well as economics, and theories of social reform, how to run a milk business as well as art, music, Browning and Skapespeare; how to plan and conduct home or school gardens as well as French, German, Italian and Spanish, will be taught in the approaching summer session of the University of California, from June 26 to August 5, for agriculture is to be made an important part of the summer session curriculum.

WILL NOT SUEJOPLIN CountyTreasurerJopllinwillnotbe THE EXPECTED HAS APPENED The issuing of bonds in time of peace for the purpose of paying governmental expenses is purely a democratic procedure. Cleveland did it; and now Wilson will do it. The army bill which has just passed the senate contains a provision for the expenditure of fifteen million dollars for the establishment of water power plants for the manufacture of nitrates to be used in the production of munitions and for fertilizers. The money is to be procured by the issuance and sale of that sum in canal bonds. The canal, it will be remembered, was constructed at a cost running into the hundreds of millions and was paid for, largely, out of the current receipts of the treasury as provided in the wise revenue laws for which the republican party stood sponsor. In effect, we republicans built the canal out of the small change in the nation's purse. But the democrats, to find fifteen millions, have to issue bonds. A bond issue was confidently predicted as one of the certain results of a democratic administration, and sure enough, it is to occur. It is the happening of the expected. PROPER METHOD OF KEEPING OIL WELL LOGS Three were 19 wells reported for test of water shut off, nine deepening or redrilling and three to be abandoned. State wide investigation by the bureau during the past few months has developed enough facts to point out localities especially needing attention to correct damage from infiltrating water. Those areas where the greatest ultimate good can be done will receive first attention. One such area is in the northern portion of the Buena Vista hills, in the Midway field, where there are two productive oil sands, with another sand carrying a large amount of salt water, lying between them. Early operations did not clearly recognize these underground conditions with the result that some wells have passed into or even through the water sand without landing the various strings of casing in such positions as to prevent the water from flooding the productive sands. The matter has been called to the attention of the operators involved, including the Federal Receiver, and as all are anxious to proceed with necessary repairs another six months should see a marked improvement in conditions. The mining bureau has given wide publicity to the necessity, both legal and physical, of operators furnishing complete logs of their wells. A great number of concerns, particularly the larger companies, have already complied, but the files are far from complete and therefore those operators and land-owners who have not complied with the law may be put at a serious disadvantage when it becomes necessary for the bureau to make final rulings upon complaints involving their property. The complete report of proposed work is as follows: Company Sec. Twp. Rng. Begin Drilling New Wells: Associated Oil Co. (2) ...13 26 20 California Star Oil Co. (2) 24 26 20 C. C. M. O.

A report that such a suit would be brought has been current on the street for two or three days. S. J. Jackman president of the league, stated that that organization had not contemplated such a move, and that speaking for himself as an individual and not as an officer of the league, he did not believe that it would be a just suit. As regards the action of the public meeting held in Fullerton, in passing resolutions requesting that the league withdraw its demands that the treasurer call in the money placed in banks without interest, Mr. Jackman said that the league would not recede from the position it has taken. "It is the law," said Mr. Jackman, "and if the league should attempt to rescind its action, it would be parties to infraction of that law. The purpose of the organization is to protect the taxpayers and endeavor to have the laws enforced." CITRUS NOTES Seventeen fig trees set out by B. R. Saccett in 1851 on the August Brink ranch near Winters produced a second crop of 5 tons dried last year. Valencia shipments from Tulare and Orange counties started the first week in April, the earliest in years. The quality seems better than usual and the crop heavier. A Japanese orange peddler in Los Angeles is carrying Sunkist oranges because so many of his customers demanded them. The national advertising campaign of the Exchange is getting in its work at home. Architect's drawing for buildings on the new citrus experiment station were recently submitted to the city planning commission of Riverside. PROPER METHOD OF KEEPING OIL WELL LOGS Several millions of dollars are spent each year in drilling oil wells in California. In most lines of business an accurate inventory would show exactly what had been obtained in return for the outlay. Many oil operators, however, spend their development funds and have little or nothing in the way of records to show them whether or not the work has been done properly or economically. To remedy such a condition the mining bureau calls attention to proper methods of recording drilling operations, and furnishes complete printed forms for the final summarizing of the logs. It is to the interest of all operators to see that their records are so kept that all information called for on the bureau's blanks can be supplied. The first steps in keeping proper log is to see that the operations of the drilling crew are completely written down each and every tour, or shift. There are several blank forms in common use which provide a convenient means of making these daily records. The state mining bureau does not furnish these forms but many printers are able to promptly supply the want. One of the handiest methods of keeping these daily drilling reports is to have them bound in book form, one page for each tour. A carbon copy of each page should be made, promptly Did the president change his mind, or did the house revolt successfully against his dictation? This question naturally arises in connection with the passage of the bill to retain the sugar duties. The house was for absolute retention, the senate limited the period to four years. The president said he favored the Senate's position, but the house had its way, nevertheless. What is the reason? Rumor has it that Claude Kitchen told Wilson that the house would not yield, president or no president, and that Mr. Wilson thereupon executed another of his celebrated 'bout-face movements. DECIDUOUS FRUITS Over 20,000 fruit trees have been set out in the Cuyama valley this season. Butte county orchardists have had good results with vetch winter cover crops. Over 10,000 almond trees were imported March 1, to 25 to be planted in the Paso Robles district. Muir peaches are reported to have set a heavy crop around Dinuba, with Elbertas and Lovells doing well. Little leaf and peac hlight are getting in their deadly work early this season adn are reducing the crop, especially in the San Joaquin valley. About 80 per cent of Napa prune growers have subscribed to the Information bureau, according to those who are boosting it. Apricots around Winters are reported as a half crop owing to rains during and after blooming. Those remaining are clean and promise well for early eastern shipment. The peach crop is well set. The Santa Clara Growers' Information committee advises that no prunes be sold at present prices of 4 to 5 SALE UNDER FORECLOSURE OF MORTGAGE In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California T.
