ABUSING G.O.P. AND ASKING ITS SUPPORT GOVERNOR JOHNSON'S DOUBLE-FACED ATTITUDE IN HIS CANDIDACY FOR U. S. SENATOR CHAIRMAN KEESLING EXPOSES THE GOVERNOR'S INCONSISTENCY IN HIS CAMPAIGN While Governor Johnson is going about the state assailing the men and women of the republican party of California in one breath and asking for the republican nomination for United States senator in the next breath, the republican state campaign committee is urging the nomination of Willis H. Booth of Los Angeles as the man preeminently qualified in every way for the honor and as one who would be a worthy representative of the party in the upper house of congress, where Hughes will be most in need of genuine republican support. The committee insists it is only fair to the voters of the state that the republicans shall have a republican candidate on the ballot in November. Governor Johnson being a progressive will have no contest for the nomination in his party and is therefore certain of a place on the ballot. However, he would subvert the primary by seizing the republican nomination also if he could. Francis V. Keealing, Chairman of the republican state central committee, nomination of Charles Evans Hughes. "Those are some of the reasons why the republicans of Califorina refuse to tolerate Hiram W. Johnson's program to seize the republican nomination for United States senator. "Governor Johnson has no monopoly upon the decency in our California citizenship. There are many hundreds of thousands of people in this state whose standards are just as high as his are. And there will be found in the leadership of the republican party and in its membership many thousands of men and women who are just as willing and ready to defend their good name against the assaults of this professional job chasser as he is willing, only too willing, to attack them." BOARD OF HEALTH ISSUES CLEAN-UP EDICT Authorities Moving to Make Anaheim Sanitary City From Every Point of View Dr. Truxaw, of the board of health, is very anxious to have all property owners in the city connect their premises with the sewerage system. An ordinance is being prepared making it compulsory to have the sewer connections made without further delay. The board of health is desirous of making Anaheim strictly sanitary from every angle and the word has gone forth that all old fashioned outhouses and dilapidated ceas pools must go. Fifth produces flies and flies are carriers of deadly germs and it behooves the citizens of this city to clean up. While the dreadful infantile paralysis plague has not as yet made its appearance here, still there is danger from that source should germ breeding places be permitted to exist. Stables, where horses and cows are kept are undesirable adjuncts of a city's assistance.

Governor Johnson being a progressive will have no contest for the nomination in his party and is therefore certain of a place on the ballot. However, he would subvert the primary by seizing the republican nomination also if he could. Francis V. Keesling, Chairman of the republican state central committee, who presided over the state wide republican conference of republicans in San Francisco, at which Booth was endorsed for the republican nomination, has just issued the following statement of facts, which shows the inconsistency of Governor Johnson's campaign: "The leadership and the rank and file of the republican party need no defense at my hands from the attacks of the governor. I commend to the attention of the republicans of California the statements of the governor in this connection, in order that they may have at first hand the attitude of this man in his continued effort to wreck the party, of which he boasts that he is not a member and which he has for five years attempted to wipe out of existence. "The republican party of California is in clean hands. It is uncontrolled by any influence, other than that which makes for the orderly, sane and wholesome development of good government. It is not ony absurd, but ridicuously untrue that it is serving the interests. If it were desired we might point out some of the very patent phases as to interest serving, of the presidential primary campaign, but that is not necessary at this time. It may be said, however, that the republican party of California is far and away above the personal ambitions of any man. It is not dominated by the uncontrollable personal demands of any person, whether he occupies the exalted position of governor of California or whether he is only a toller in the ranks. "The Governor's memory must be falling him. He apparently has forgotten recent events at Chicago and the occurrences political in this state just preceding the Chicago conventions. "The governor does not recall, or does deliberately withhold the fact that the republican party of California held a great state conference here, at which it selected a ticket of 26 dele-gone forth that all old fashioned outhouses and dilapidated cesspools must go. Fifth produces flies and flies are carriers of deadly germs and it behooves the citizens of this city to clean up. While the dreadful infantile paralysis plague has not as yet made its appearance here, still there is danger from that source should germ breeding places be permitted to exist. Stables, where horses and cows are kept are undesirable adjuncts of a city's assets and it is not at all improbable that action may be taken to eliminate all such places within a certain zone within the city limits. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and much sickness and distress may be averted by following the advice of the health officials." SPECIAL TAXES ASKED BY SCHOOL BOARDS Amounts Practically the Same as Year Ago In the County The Anaheim union high school this year is asking for a special tax rate of .50 cents, the amount to be raised thereby being $23,000. The city schools want to raise $8224 by a special tax of .30, and $916 for the kindergarten, the rate for this being .05 per cent. The twenty-two grammar schools of Orange county are asking for $87,770 by special taxes, and the five high schools want $156,930. These figures are about the same as last year, some schools asking for more and others less than the year previous. The largest increase is asked by Fullerton, the trustees wanting $62,269. Six of the grammar schools are asking an assessment for kindergartens. They are Anaheim, Fullerton, Huntington Beach, Orange, Brea and Santa Aan. Superintendent Mitchell will recommend the amounts asked in each case providing it is not necessary to increase the school tax rate above a figure set by him in each case. The money raised for kindergarten work must be secured separately by each district and does not come out of the courtyard as a whole. J. E. Woods has filed suit against M. Franches and Mr. Erreca for $11,500 damages because of injuries received when a threshing machine belonging to them on which he was riding went through a bridge near Westminster in October, 1914.

He apparently has forgotten recent events at Chicago and the occurrences political in this state just preceding the Chicago conventions. "The governor does not recall, or does deliberately withhold the fact that the republican party of California held a great state conference here, at which it selected a ticket of 26 delegates to the republican national convention. This ticket was openly attacked and fought at the primary election by the governor and all of his state organization, fed by the immense patronage which he has used and most ruthlessly built up in the last five years, so far as the state treasury is concerned. "The governor fails to tell the people of California that his attack failed; that those delegates, representative men and women, not a few of whom had never taken any part in political activities, but were there in the interests of clean and decent politics, were elected by tremendous majorities. "The governor also falls to tell the people of California that those whom he has assailed as interest serving as machine guided, and as corporation ridden citizens of this state, went to the republican national convention absolutely open minded and ready to serve but one interest, that of the republican party and the people of the state and the nation, by voting for the best man in the United States that could be selected as the party standard bearer. "The governor fails also to tell the people that these same men and women he has assailed in public, did do their duty by the party and by the people by leading the landslide which gave to the party and the nation the money raised for kindergarten work must be secured separately by each district and does not come out of the courty as a whole. J. E. Woods has filed suit against M. Franches and Mr. Erreca for $11,500 damages because of injuries received when a threshing machine belonging to them on which he was riding went through a bridge near Westminster in October, 1914. Woods signed a release shortly after the accident on receipt of $300, but now says his condition was such when the receipt was signed that he did not know what he was doing. He first brought suit against the board of supervisors. In that action he sought $11,000, alleging the accident was due to the neglect of the supervisors in taking proper care of the bridge. This action was declared a non-suit by Jouge Thomas upon motion of District Attorney L. A. West when it was shown that the bridge in question was a drainage district bridge and did not come under the supervision of the board. The will of Alexander Gardiner, who died on July 31 at his home on Orange-thorpe avenue, has been filed. L. M. Gardiner and Jennie des Granges are named as executors. The estate is valued at $31,150, the bulk of it being in a 30-acre ranch. By the terms of the will L. M. Gardiner receives 13.16 acres of the land and ten shares of Anaheim Union Water company's stock. W. A. Gardiner, another son, residing in Mexico, is given $2500. The balance is divided between John R. and Frank E. Gardiner, Mrs. Mollie Shrode and Mrs. Jennie des Granges. The widow will reside with her son, L. M. Gardiner on the home place.

VACUUM STREET CLEANERITS EXTOLLED Continued from Page 1 city will do the work and make it a lien upon the property. City Attorney Ames was granted further time to prepare ordinances, one of which will prohibit police officers from entering saloons while on duty, the other prohibiting the serving of liquor in restaurants, without first securing a license. At present it is the custom of patrons of certain restaurants to take liquor into the eating places and having it served with meals. Technically it is claimed the practice is a viloation of the liquor ordinance. Upon the suggestion of Trustee Cook at a previous meeting it was ordered that an ordinance be prepared to put a stop to the serving of liquors under those conditions. It has been stated that upon various occasions male escort of young women have secured liquid refreshments and have had them served with meals, at times past the hour of closing of the licensed establishments. Trustee Cook believes the practice should be stopped. Engineer Steward reported that an amicable agreement had been reached between the special committee and the W. C. T.

Engineer Steward reported that an amicable agreement had been reached between the special committee and the W.C.T.U., relative to the removal of the present drinking fountain located in front of the First National bank. The fountain had been erected by the Temperance association several years ago. The bank is erecting a modern three story banking house upon their site at the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets, and are desirous of removing the fountain, which is considered ungainly and out of date, in that the drinking spout is too high for use by children. It is proposed to erect a fountain of a more modern pattern in the sidekalk at the present site, giving the W.C.T.U. recognition in its erection. The Pacific Coast fire chiefs are to hold a convention in San Diego on Aug. 21-26, when matters of importance relative to fire departments will be discussed. Latest methods of handling fires will be presented and plans for better fire protection will also be explained. The convention is to be attended by many of the chiefs throughout the state. It was ordered that $20 be set aside to defray the expenses of Fire Chief Elmer Goodrich, whom it is recommended be sent to the convention. The city trustees will convene as a board of equalization, beginning Monday, August 14th. Engineer Adams of the power house addressed the board relative to laying 12 inch water mains on South Philadelphia street, and to later extend the smaller mains north on Emily street to Sycamore, from which point diverging lines would be extended west to that rapidly growing section. Engineer Adams idea was to put down the larger main looking to the future, and advised making the improvement before the street is paved. The board views the proposition favorably, but many other improvements are demanding attention, and finances are getting low. The new mains will cost completed about $6000. New 12 inch pipe costs now $40 per ton, whishe is high, and after September 1st freight rates will jump $6 a ton. The water mains will be given consideration, but not at present.

The city attorney was instructed to notify the railway companies to install wig-wags upon all crossings on their lines within the city. There are several very dangerous street crossings upon both railway lines and the city authorities have decided to have better warning signals installed than those at present used. A crossing on East Broadway, on South Santa Ana street and one on the Ball road are classed as extremely dangerous to traffic. POPULAR STUNT The free grease offer which Austin, Bryant & Carter have been making in connection with the sale of their A.B.C. motor oils, has proven an exceedingly popular one, and the great volume of orders which have resulted from this campaign has kept a large force of extra help busy filling the orders that prompt deliveries can be made.

The water mains will be given consideration, but not at present. The new larger mains may later be extended north on Olive street, which Trustee Cook argued would perhaps be better for the needs of the city's northern and eastern residents, being a block closer to that section. Larger water mains are imperatively needed in many sections of the city, so fast is the town growing. People in the western and southern additions are now asking for better water service, as in some instances at times during the summer months a scarcity of water is felt.

The sale of A. B. C. oils and gasoline has been extended throughout all of Southern and Central California, and over practically all of Arizona, and where there are no local agents, deliveries are made direct from the Los Angeles plant, but it is the policy of the company to make distribution through dealers whenever possible. This oil is a Pennsylvania paraffin base product, and is shipped out here in tank cars direct from the refineries, and deliveries made here in sealed cans or steel drums to suit the demand of the customers. PETROLEUM BREAKS ALL RECORDS IN 1915 The quantity of petroleum marketed in the United States in 1915 amounted to 281,104,104 barrels, valued at $179,462,890. More crude petroleum was marketed in the United States in 1915 than in any previous year in the history of the industry—nearly a 6 percent increase over that credited to 1914, and about 5 per cent in excess of the estimated total made public by the survey on January 1. The average price received at the well for this output was 64 cents a barrel. Of this total California produced 86,591,535 barrels, valued at $36,558,439. It was exceeded only by Oklahoma, which produced 97,913,243 barrels, its value being $56,706,133.
