ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR...$1.50 SIX MONTHS ...$1.00 THREE MONTHS ...$ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. NO OPPOSITION TO SCHUMACHER William Schumacher, the third district's member of the board of supervisors, has no reason to worry over the possibilities of the count at the primary election on August 29, or the general election on November 6. He is a candidate for re-election, but he has the field entirely to himself, no opponent having come forward to contest the office with him. It is a source of gratification to Mr. Schumacher's friends that he has filled the difficult office of supervisor for four years so acceptably that there is no opposition to his re-election. Of course there have been sporadic whisperings during the past few months that a candidate would be put forth against him, but it appears no man could be found who cared to offer himself a willing sacrifice at the behest of the disgruntled few. The feeble criticisms that have been heard have not been directed so much at Schumacher individually as at the entire board of supervisors, who failed to act always in accordance with the ideas of the disgruntled. The past four years have been momentous ones in Orange county and the supervisors have been confronted with more important questions than ever before in a like period. Our splendid highway system has been built during Mr. Schumacher's term of office, FAR'S HEAVY TOLL Premier Asquith asked the British house of commons for a vote of credit of 450,000,000 pounds sterling. This vote is the largest asked by the English government since the beginning of the war, and brings the total vote this year to 1,500,000,000 pounds sterling, and the total since the beginning of the war to 2,832,000,000 sterling (approximately $14,160,000,000.) As England's public debt was four billion dollars before the war, its total indebtedness now reaches more than eighteen billion dollars. The famous "Goulash Guns" which, second only to the giant howitzers have worked ceaseless wonders in the European war are being used to feed the citizen marines on hikes from training camp at Landsdowne, Pa., which opened on July 21. More than two hundred recruits enrolled and the military-naval phase of the Marine corps training seemed to carry a strong appeal to young men who could not make up their minds whether to train for land or sea. All Marines are trained for both shore and sea duty and the citizen volunteers at Landsdowne are also being trained for the double service. If the German super-submarine Deutschland is forced to lie for ten hours on the bottom of the English channel on its return trip, members of the crew can put "I Love You, California" on the phonograph and eat California Sunkist oranges while enemy patrol boats and destroyers scout around above them. For the California Fruit Growers' Exchange presented Captain Koenig and his intrepid crew with a box of Sunkist oranges and a box of Sunkist lemons, direct from Southern California groves. The EDITOR Say, Judge B Johnson's shad there? Ralph McFaul for long distance throwing. Frank Miller letter from Ri it all happened we are throwing. Is this Judge over whom we are republican?

Speer up, you'll ove Assemblyman tition for the for member o with the republican we him, but as a The past four years have been momentous ones in Orange county and the supervisors have been confronted with more important questions than ever before in a like period. Our splendid highway system has been built during Mr. Schumacher's term of office, and in the division of the money he succeeded in getting a generous share for the third district. When the $1,270,000 bond issue was apportioned this district was given more miles of paved road than any of the five districts, and when the highway commissioners reported a surplus of $240,000 after completing the original system, Mr. Schumacher and Mr. McFadden induced the supervisors to give the third district considerably more than its pro rata proportion for the construction of important roads in this end of the county. In addition to the many miles of paved highway built from this bond issue, Mr. Schumacher has constructed and improved numerous roads in all sections of the district. He has accomplished more in road building than all the other supervisors who have represented this district combined. Four years ago we had no good roads in the third district, today they extend to every section. In addition to this he has constructed many miles of oiled roads in the district. Mr. Schumacher is a republican, but the democrats are solidly lined up for him and favor his return to the board with just as much enthusiasm as the republicans do. BISHOP FLOPS AGAIN Clyde Bishop, the eminent Santa Ana orator, has flopped to the support of Hiram Johnson for United States Senator. Bishop has been a consistent republican since Bryan's anti-imperialistic campaign in 1896, before which time he was a member of the democratic party. Previous to the assembling of the Chicago convention last month, he declared he would vote for Wilson in preference to Roosevelt, should the latter receive the nomination at the hands of the republican convention. In this he would have followed his footsteps of four year ago, when he voted for Wilson, not being able to Deutschland is forced to lie for ten hours on the bottom of the English channel on its return trip, members of the crew can put "I Love You, California" on the phonograph and eat California Sunkist oranges while enemy patrol boats and destroyers scout around above them.

Previous to the assembling of the Chicago convention last month, he declared he would vote for Wilson in preference to Roosevelt, should the latter receive the nomination at the hands of the republican convention. In this he would have followed his footsteps of four year ago, when he voted for Wilson, not being able to support Roosevelt. Now he flops to the support of the man who has done more to destroy the republican party than any man who ever lived in California. He seems to have forgotten that by the rule of political honor, the senator should come from Southern California this year. But what is that to Bishop, if he has made his peace with the governor, whom he has insistently fought for the past six years? If he could not support Roosevelt for president, how the devil can he support Johnson for United States Senator. If he flops again, he will be eligible to membership in Judge West's Flopper Club. In thus flopping to Johnson, Bishop becomes first cousin to Miguel Estudillo. Captain J. L. McBride of Company L, Seventh regiment, has been relieved of command of the company at Nogales, because of a slight defect in one of his eyes. Strong efforts were made on the part of the Captain's friends to procure a waiver for his disqualification from the war department, as well as from General Bell and the mustering officer at Sacramento. These were unavailing, and McBride will return to Santa Ana within a few days. McBride is one of the best officers in the regiment, and his disqualification upon technical grounds causes keen regret on the part of his many friends here.

Ralph McFadden holds the record for long distance monkey wrench throwing. Frank Miller writes us a real sweet letter from Riverside telling us how it all happened at San Diego. Frank, we are throwing you a kiss! Is this Judge Bordwell the same man over whom we enthused as delegate to the republican national convention? Are you the same man, Judge? Some men are Spineless Wonders, some are Pussy Foots, and some, who have never been curried below the knees, will not stand without hitching! People say that Santa Claus is bringing something nice for Stanley Reinhaus. Stanley already has a new long-pants suit! What the devil more does he expect? We whooped 'er up for Judge Bordwell as delegate to the Chicago convention, and now what's he doing? Oh, base ingratitude! How sharper than a serpent's tooth! Clyde Bishop has flopped again, and is now only a lap and a half behind Judge West in the floppers' free for all Marathon. Speed 'er up, Bishop, speed 'er up, you'll overtake old Zee Bee yet! Assemblyman Burke has filed a petition for the democratic nomination for member of the assembly, along with the republican nomination. As a republican we shall heartily support him, but as a democrat we must fight WILIS H. BOOTH FOR SENATOR That Southern California is to be conceded the successor to United States Senator John D. Works is the almost unanimous sentiment among leaders of all parties throughout the state. Evidence continues to accumulate at the headquarters of Willis H. Booth that he is the choice among republican leaders, north as well as south, for the place. "A large part of the correspondence which reaches Los Angeles headquarters," remarked Manager Burl Armstrong yesterday, "concedes without argument the Works vacancy to the section south of Teachepi, and Willis H. Booth is, by an overwhelming majority, the choice of the republican newspapers everywhere for the position. The argument is that only four states in the Union have two United States Senators from the same city, the general rule being that senatorial vacancies should be filled along geographical lines in order to serve the best interests of the several commonwealths involved. "Two years ago Senator Perkins was retiring and a number of worthy gentlemen were aspiring to succeed him. Two republicans, two democrats and two progressives sought the senatorial nomination; not one of these lived south of Teachepi. We of this section all conceded that the place belonged in the north for the reason that the south at that time was represented by John D. Works, and because of this fact and also because of an unbroken custom of more than a quarter of a century, the north generally, at this time, is not only willing but anxious that Senator Works' successor be elected from this end of the state and that Willis H. Booth, because of his exceptional training, shall be Senator Works' successor." Clyde Bishop has flopped again, and is now only a lap and a half behind Judge West in the floppers' free for all Marathon. Speed 'er up, Bishop, speed 'er up, you'll overtake old Zee Bee yet! Assemblyman Burke has filed a petition for the democratic nomination for member of the assembly, along with the republican nomination. As a republican we shall heartily support him, but as a democrat we must fight him tooth and nail. THAT LITTLE KNOCKER Col. Mozart while in Los Angeles this week, was informed that a little knocker has been industriously circulating the report in that city that the attendance at the Grand theatre on Saturday evening was 63 people by actual count. Inasmuch as the Grand played to between 1100 and 1200 people at its two performances on Saturday evening, and as the Colonel had his bank book with him to prove it, the little knocker's little knock did not amount to much. The Colonel is right there with the goods. His theatre is playing to crowded houses, and several times recently to S. R. O. Twelve members of Company L have been discharged from the service because the Federal examining board at Nogales declared them physically unfit for military duty. The boys who were sent home are Private Lester L. Isbell, Corporal L. C. Towler, Private Lorin D. Ayers, Frank H. Coones, B. H. Blancher, Orval B. Handy, Thos. C. Garnett, Sergeant Victor G. Manning, Corporal Jas. L. Crane, Privates Clyde E. Leatherwood, Harold Lindquist, Wm. D. Mackle. Miss Annie Winnenberg, who has been the guest of Mrs. C. E. Holcomb and Miss Dora Zeyn at their ranch near Fullerton for several weeks past returned today to her home in San Francisco where she will on Monday resume her position as a teacher in one of the schools in that city. ORPHANAGE REPORT The following boys have been admitted into St. Catherine's Orphanage since the last publication: Whole Orphan: Barthelomy, Andrew, 8 years.

Paving of Broadway will probably begin next week. E. R. Werdlin was in town from Los Angeles this week with that expansive smile which grows bigger and bigger every day. Ah, there, Werdlyn. There is scarcely room on the highways of Orange county for the automobiles already in use, but people are still buying them. Within the past few days P. J.

SOME INTERESTING FIGURES The thirteen states, California, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin had a population in 1910 of nearly 51,000,000, and they cast a vote of over 9,700,000 in 1912. The capital stock employed by these thirteen states in 1910 aggregated over $14,000,000; salaries and wages paid out amounted to over $3,350,000; and the value of manufactured products to over $15,500,000; annually. These states paid $65,000,000 of the $80,000,000 collected from the corporation and income tax during the fiscal year, 1915, and they pay over 75 per cent of the taxes laid by the "war revenue measure."

The capital stock employed by these thirteen states in 1910 aggregated $1,869,000,000; salaries and wages paid out amounted to about $407,000,000, and the value of manufactured products to $1,908,-000,000 annually. These thirteen states paid less than $5,000,000 of the amount collected from corporation and income taxes for the fiscal year 1915, and their contribution to the war tax was negligible. In the thirteen Northern and Western states are to be found the bulk of our great manufacturing industries, which were so sorely wounded by the democratic tariff law. The thirteen Southern states are largely agricultural. On such things as rice and angora goat hair the Southern Congressmen who framed the tariff bill left a duty, but the farmers of the North and West got undiluted free trade on their products.
