MORE WORKERS IN REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN AUXILIARY FORCE WILL BE SELECTED TO ASSIST THE COUNTY CENTRAL COMMITTEE REPUBLICAN C LUB ADVOCATES SINKING PERSONAL PREJUDICE AND VOTING FOR PARTY PRINCIPLES Republicans of Orange county are making preparations for a vigorous campaign between this date and election day, November 7. An auxiliary committee will be selected to assist the county central committee in the work of arranging meetings and looking after local interests. This committee will attend meetings of the central body and take part in the discussions, but, of course, will have no vote on questions submitted. The auxiliary committee will be composed of one member from each voting proclinct, which gives Anaheim, with the east Masonic Temple. The special train on which they are travelling reaches Anaheim at 7:45 o'clock; tomorrow (Friday) morning and will make a stop here. The train will be met by a committee and the candidates brought to the forum where Mr. Hanley is scheduled to make a 30 minute speech. The local prohibitionists have appointed committees at Fullerton, Placentia, Olinda, Yorba Linda, Brea, La Habra, Buena Park, Cypress, Garden Grove and Olive, to see that the people from those sections come in and hear the speaker. SUNKIST ORANGES ARE THE FAVORITES Only 2 Per Cent of People Know any Other Variety. During the fiscal year just closed, according to an announcement by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, an investigation was made to determine the consumer's knowledge of the different brands of oranges and lemons. The results based on interviews with several thousand consumers in the East, Middle West and West, showed that less than 2 per cent knew any other brand than Sunkist, while the knowledge of the Sunkist brand varied from 27 per cent to more than 50 per cent in different communities. An auxiliary committee will be selected to assist the county central committee in the work of arranging meetings and looking after local interests. This committee will attend meetings of the central body and take part in the discussions, but, of course, will have no vote on questions submitted. The auxiliary committee will be composed of one member from each voting proclinct, which gives Anaheim, with the east and west precincts, thirteen members. Thirteen live wires working in conjunction with Messrs. Kellenberger, Cook and Fay, our members of the central committee, will probably stir up the inhabitants between this and election day, and impress upon the indifferent voters the fact that a campaign is in progress. At the meeting of the Anaheim Republican club Monday night a committee of three, composed of John Kellenberger, J. A. Fay and Dr. Clossen was appointed to make the selections for Anaheim, and the two outside precincts. This committee will submit the names at the next regular meeting which will be held on Monday, October 2. While no official action was taken at the meeting Monday night, and no resolution presented, there was considerable discussion over the merits of the candidates who will be on the republican ticket, and it was the general opinion that there is too much at stake in the coming election for republicans to let personal prejudice interfere with their party duty. The fractures in the party lines are cemented together, and unless there is a defection over the individuality of certain candidates, it will present a united front to its ancient enemy, the democratic party, with the result that California will go overwhelmingly republican. It was argued that dissentions in the republican ranks always resulted in disaster to the people. The administration of Woodrow Wilson with its disastrous legislation, its extravagances, and its humiliations was the result of a split in the republican ranks. The state of California with its large republican majority, is represented in the United States senate because of dissentions in the republican party, and a democrat who voted for and upholds a policy that under normal conditions would destroy all of our great industries, represents the Eleventh congress district at Washington, because the republicans CHARLES E. RUDDOCK IS SERIOUSLY ILL Former Sheriff of Orange County Suffering From Bright's Disease Charles E. Ruddock is lying very ill at his home in Fullerton, suffering from Bright's disease. He was in Santa Ana two weeks ago Monday, greeting his old friends at the court house and elsewhere and it was observed that he was ill. On his return home he took to his bed and has not been able to leave it since. Mr. Ruddock has long been one of Orange county's foremost citizens. He served a term as sheriff, retiring January 1, 1915. Since that time he has traveled extensively in the hope of restoring his health, but without success. Last reports from his bedside were that he was improving. His many friends hereabout will hope for his complete recovery. ELKS VISITATION The Elks of Orange county with headquarters in Santa Ana will attend Divine Worship in St. Michael's Episcopal church, corner Emily and Adele streets, Anaheim, Sunday morning, Sept., 24th, at the Eleven o'clock service. This is the third annual visit of the Lodge to St. Michael's and as it is the Rev. Mr. Gillmor's last morning service in the Anaheim church it is expected that many Elks will be in attendance.

Mr. Gillmor for the past several years has been the Chaplain of Santa Ana lodge. All local members and visiting Elks and friends are cordially invited to this annual service. $300 FOR BOOZE SELLING Mrs. Florence Ghyseles, native of Belgium, who was arrested several days ago by Sheriff Jackson and Under Sheriff Iman on a charge of operating a "blind pig" near Los Alamitos, appeared before Judge Cox Monday and pleaded guilty to the three charges placed against her and was fined $100 on each charge. She was released immediately after her arrest on $100 ball on each charge and the ball money went to pay the fine. At the time the ball was paid the county was nearly swamped with $5 gold pieces. Mr. Ghyseles followed the officers and his wife to Santa Ana to obtain her release. When ball was fixed he drew almost a hat full of $5 gold pieces from his pocket and counted out the number necessary to pay the fine. Miss Sara Fay entertained a dozen of her young friends Friday, that date belin her eighth birthday. The young people spent the afternoon playing various games, and partook of refreshments consisting of ice cream and cake at the close.

OFFICIAL SCITY'S GUESTS THURSDAY LUNCHEON AT VALENCIA CAFE DRAWS RECORD CROWD OF CITIZENS BEST OF GOOD FELLOWSHIP PREVAILS AND ALL ENJOY SOCIAL FUNCTION The presence of Salt Lake officials at the Board of Trade luncheon at the Valencia Cafe on Thursday was the cause of drawing out the largest crowd of citizens ever assembled at these popular functions. Covers were laid for seventy-five and together with the regular patrons of the hostelry, taxed the cafe to capacity, but the proprietors were equal to the occasion and all were amply accommodated. John Ruether was chairman and introduced Mr. Adams of the Salt Lake who briefly expressed his pleasure for having been present, and was agreeably surprised at the hospitable reception accorded him and his colleagues. Mr. In one instance, among the force was an affable Italian named Zeeno. It so happened that in the endeavor to build a road up-state the contracting company failed. An insufficient sum of money remained with which to pay off, so the superintendent adopted the alphabet method of settlement. That is, the names commencing with "A" came first, then the "B's" and so down the line. The money was exhausted when the "M's" were reached, and payment stopped. The rest of the men got nothing. They left camp sadder but wiser. Many years later, Mr. White said, as the aforementioned superintendent was going through a construction camp, he espied a man whom he thought he recognized as the selfsame Zeeno, while the Italian's recognition of him was mutual. "Hello, Zeeno," exclaimed Mr. Blank, glad to meet the long forgotten Dago. "My name not Zeeno, d—n, you; my name Ajack!" (Laughter.) In conclusion Mr. White, on behalf of his colleagues, and superior officers, thanked the citizens of Anaheim for their hospitality, and said when they became one of us in the business world we would always find the latchstring out. Mesars. T. C. Peck, Mr. Adams, J. J. Tavis and Mr. Jones, all of the Salt Lake, made short talks and one of the most pleasant gatherings ever assembled here came to an end. A telegram was received from H. C. STATE ENGINEER M'CLURE AP-PROVES PLANS GIVES ENDORSEMENT TO PROTECTION WORK AS PREPARED BY ENGINEER STEWARD DR. DEMING ADDRESSES BODY OF PROTECTIONISTS AT INFORMAL MEETING Dr. Lee C. Deming of Stanton recently elected a trustee in the United Storm Water District, met informally with a number of citizens in this city a day or two ago and gave a brief outline of a visit he had with State Engineer McClure of Sacramento. Upon his suggestion the plans for river protection as prepared by Engineer Steward of this city had been forwarded to the state official for inspection.

Schoen and his partner, Frank Jennings, worked a pretty smooth game here for a few hours, but finally came to grief. Jennings secured a room at the Nebelung apartments under the name of J. W.

Messrs. T. C. Peck, Mr. Adams, J. J. Tavlis and Mr. Jones, all of the Salt Lake, made short talks and one of the most pleasant gatherings ever assembled here came to an end. A telegram was received from H. C. Nutt and Mr. Sloane, stafing, with extreme regret, that owing to imperative business elsewhere that they would be unable to be present. Dr. F. H. Houck has been chosen to act as chairman at today's lunchon, when another record crowd is expected to be present. Richard Melrose will be the principal speaker. His subject is not given out, but the talk will be appropriate to the occasion. CONVICTED CHECK FORGER MAKES HIS ESCAPE Henry Schoen, Arrested in Anaheim Some Months Ago, Vanishes From Road Camp Henry Schoen, who was arrested in Anaheim some months ago for passing forged checks, and subsequently sentenced to San Quentin for three years, made his escape Thursday. Schoen and his partner, Frank Jennings, worked a pretty smooth game here for a few hours, but finally came to grief. Jennings secured a room at the Nebelung apartments under the name of J. W.

Phil Ger In a day or two ago and gave a brief outline of a visit he had with State Engineer McClure of Sacramento. Upon his suggestion the plans for river protection as prepared by Engineer Steward of this city had been forwarded to the state official for inspection. The plans were pronounced as being of the best and were approved by Engineer McClure. A similar protection district has recently completed extensive work up in the Sacramento Valley and the same has been successful in every detail. The work here is similar in character and should it be carried out as now proposed it is said there will be no cause for complaint. Engineer McClure said the dredging of the river channel and erection of the dikes as planned here is entirely feasible and he sees no reason why the improvements cannot be carried to a successful termination. In the upper valley a movement is now on foot to have legislation enacted whereby protection districts may be disincorporated upon completion of their work as outlined. Just what the final disposition of the districts would be is not at present known, but in all probability it could be legislated that counties would assume authority of the finished work and thus maintain it. There is no reason to doubt, that once the protection enterprises are finished in a thorough workmanlike manner there should be very little or no expenditures of money for their upkeep. Engineer McClure is desirous of seeking cooperation upon the part of people in Southern California with a view of having helpful legislation passed at the next session of the lawmakers with these ends in view. In all probability people of this district will heartily coincide with the views as expressed by the state official, and Dr. Deming in taking the initiative is to be commended by all who have the best interests of the district at heart. When the trustees recently elected here have so progressed in their labors, and can see their way clear to convene for routine business, one of their first acts will be to ascertain the cost of the proposed work as outlined. A board of three commissioners will then be chosen, whose duty it will be to make the tax levy. It is estimated that $2 per acre will be sufficient to complete the protection work in every detail. That is a very reasonable figure, and many ranchers are being quoted as saying Hearty applause greeted this statement, and while the large body of representative citizens present appreciate the fact that Anaheim is destined (in fact, is already) to be the greatest citrus section in the state, that announcement coming from such an eminent authority as Mr. White, was cause for rejoicing. Mr. White said all that he hoped for was that after his company became established here for business that they would be accorded the same hearty reception as that shown him and his co-workers at this time. He was glad to be among us, and the present occasion was one of the happiest moments of his life. Mr. White sees a prosperous future before this section and he vouchsafed the information that in time his company would make this branch one of their main trunk lines of the vast railway system. Mr. White's remarks, given in all sincerity, carried great weight with his auditors and that the advent of the Salt Lake railway into this section meant much for Anaheim was the consensus of opinion of all those present. He said the road would be pushed with all possible speed, and would be built within the next six months. At present the terminus would be at Santa Ana, but the rails would be laid to San Diego as soon as possible, and perhaps later would be extended out into Arizona. The speaker was in reminiscent mood and told a story or two in his inimical manner, and convulsed his auditors in laughter by his ready wit and humor at the expense of the Irish and the dark skinned sons of Italy. He told this one: In the early days railroad building was beset by many adverses and the path of the adventurous contractors was not strewn with roses. A nondescript bunch of laborers usually did the grading, and within reach of the phone and promptly O K'd the check. One of the checks was passed at William Leslie's racket store. After Jennings had given it his O K, and Schoen had departed with his purchase and his change Leslie became suspicious and notified the officers. He accompanied Marshal Kellenberger and Deputy Germann to the apartment house. Schoen was discovered in Lautenback's shoe store where he was negotiating another check. Phil Germann took him under his wing, Kellenberger and Leslie going after Jennings. See that his game was up when accosted by the officer, the crook made a break for liberty, running down Lemon street like a frightened jackrabbit, with Kellenberger on his heels. The officer requisitioned an auto and after an exciting race which ziz-zagged around several blocks, succeeded in cornering his man in the Griffith Lumber Company's yards on Santa Ana street. The men were each given a stiff penitentiary sentence and sent to San Quentin. Schoen was put to work with a road gang in Mendocino county, and succeeded in company with another convict, in making his get-away Thursday. ST. MICHAEL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH Services, Sunday, Sept. 24th, the Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity, at St. Michael's Episcopal church, corner Emily and Adele streets, Rev. David Todd Gillmor, rector, will be, 9:45 a.m., Bible school and adult classes; 11:00 morning prayer and farewell sermon, also annual visitation of Elks Lodge. 7:30 p.m. Evening prayer and address. Mr. Gillmor's last sermon in Anaheim. A cordial welcome awaits you. Here have so progressed in their labors, and can see their way clear to convene for routine business, one of their first acts will be to ascertain the cost of the proposed work as outlined. A board of three commissioners will then be chosen, whose duty it will be to make the tax levy. It is estimated that $2 per acre will be sufficient to complete the protection work in every detail. That is a very reasonable figure, and many ranchers are being quoted as saying they would gladly pay more to have the turbulent Santa Ana confined in a fixed channel during the rainy weather. There are many farmers who claim the silt deposited upon their lands by the overflow is highly beneficial to the soil. Only when the overflow actually cuts the land is real damage done, but taken as a whole it is the concensus of opinion that the river should be confined substantially. Only real estate and railroad property is liable for assessment in the district, improvements of all kinds being exempt. It is reasonable to expect that once affairs so shape themselves as to permit the trustees to proceed with the protection work, that the building of the western dike and the dredging of the river channel will be prosecuted vigorously. It will be a great benefit to the entire northern end of the county to have the river bed permanently in a fixed channel. The benefit to be derived from that one fact alone it would appear would amply compensate the people for making the improvement. The western dike is to be so built as to afford ample space for traffic and the supervisors have said they will maintain it as a public highway. That would be a fine idea. The road would open a stretch of country that is fast filling up with ranchers and would give them an easy route in and out. ENGINEER URE APS PLANS MENT TO PROTECIS PREPARED BY R STEWARD ADDRESSES BODY IONISTS AT INMEETING DEATH OVERTAKES ESTIMABLE LADY Mrs. Julia Nemetz Passes Away at Home of Her Daughter in South Pasadena After an illness extending over a number of years, Mrs. Julia L. Nemetz died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. S. Payne at South Pasadena, on Friday night. Two or three weeks previous to her death she had been taken to the home of her daughter in the hope that the change of scene and atmosphere would prove beneficial, but she failed to rally, and on Friday night ended a long and useful life. The remains were brought to Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors on the following day, the funeral being held in the chapel at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, Rev. F. W. Mitchell conducting the services. She was buried in BROADWAY PAVING FINALLY SETTLED GEO. R.

The remains were brought to Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors on the following day, the funeral being held in the chapel at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, Rev. F. W. Mitchell conducting the services. She was buried in Anaheim cemetery. Mrs. Nemetz was a woman of retiring and unostentatious disposition, but she was exceedingly kind, and charitable to all who needed charity, and her death is sincerely mourned by everyone who knew her intimately. She was born on May 21, 1843, at Polna, Bohemia. In the winter of 1867 she was married in Cairo, Egypt, to Leopold Nemetz. Two years afterward the young couple came to America, and in 1888 they came to Anaheim. This has been their home for the past 28 years. Mr. and Mrs. Nemetz were looking forward to the celebration of their golden wedding anniversary, but she died just five months before the date. Mrs. Nemetz is survived by her husband, five children, thirteen grandchildren and four great grandchildren, besides three brothers and two sisters. A brother and sister are still living in Europe. She was the mother of nine children, five of whom are living. They are Frank Nemetz, Mrs. Pauline McAdoo, Mrs. Julia Payne, William Nemetz, and Mrs. Victoria Hilton. The life of this excellent lady was above reproach, and she went to the grave followed by a long procession of sincere mourners. The members of the family have the sympathy of a wide circle of friends. ASKED VINDICATION BUT GOT LICKED Cypress Man Accused of Stealing Chickens, then Pounded by His Accuser E. D. Proffer of Cypress swore to a complaint Saturday charging C. E. Garthy with assault. According to the statement of Proffer to Deputy District Attorney Koepsel, Garthy had been circulating a report that Proffer was guilty of stealing chickens in the neighborhood. The report came near of trade, appeared before the council asking for funds for advertising purposes. He said there is a great demand for literature concerning Anaheim and the last year's supply having been exhausted, it was the aim of the civic body to have more issued. It is proposed to print 25,000 folders and assistance from the city dads was necessary. Last year the city donated $200, with a promise of more. Mr. Noll would like to have at least $400. After deep meditation the trustees donated the sum of $200, which was greatly appreciated by Mr. Noll, who thanked the board for its kindness and departed. It is proposed by the Elks lodge to organize a lodge here, and one of the preliminary steps to be taken is to ascertain the actual population of the city. It is necessary that 5000 inhabitants must be attained. The city is to appoint two census takers for that purpose and the Elks committee is to refund to the city their expenses, and the committee is also to name the enumerators. City Electrician Adams submitted his monthly report of meters installed and other work performed, and also the collection of $22.15, which was turned into the treasury. Trustee Stark of the committee on public improvements, reported that all property owners on the north side of Center street, between Los Angeles and Lemon, excepting Mrs. Mitchell, had signified their willingness to move back their buildings to the new sidewalk line. Dr. Houck this fall will erect a modern building on his site, and the Strodthoff building will be set back. What action is to be taken relative to the other buildings is as yet not definitely decided upon. Mr. Stark further recommended the laying of water pipes on Broadway and Palm streets, which was referred to the engineer for completion. Ordinance No. 306, prohibiting the sale or delivery of liquor to restaurants, excepting those containing 35 rooms, was submitted for first reading. Ordinance No. 308, prohibiting the public outcry or oral solicitation for business upon public streets by litney managers, was passed. Ordinance No. 309, fixing the tax rate for the fiscal year, amounting to $1.45 on the $100, was passed. A resolution, making it a misdemeanor for the city marshal or his deputies to enter establishments where liquor is sold, while on duty, Cypress Man Accused of Stealing Chickens, then Pounded by His Accuser E. D. Proffer of Cypress swore to a complaint Saturday charging C. E. Garthy with assault. According to the statement of Proffer to Deputy District Attorney Koepsel, Garthy had been circulating a report that Proffer was guilty of stealing chickens in the neighborhood. The report came near being the means of disrupting the partnership of Proffer & Fuquay. Fuquay told his partner of the stories going the rounds, and said they would have to dissolve partnership, as he could not afford to be connected with a man of his reputation. Asked for the name of the man who had told Fuquay, the latter gave Garthy's name. The two men started out to find Garthy for verification of the report. They found him on the seat of a best wagon. Proffer asked Garthy is he was responsible for the story. Garthy answered by jumping from the seat and pummeling Proffer. Proffer swore to a complaint against Garthy and a warrant of arrest was placed in the hands of Deputy Sheriff Iman, who went to Garthy's home Saturday morning to arrest him. Garthy is an Adventist and was at church, and the officer delayed the arrest until the afternoon. George H. Moebius has gone to Whittier where he will spend some time recuperating his health. Mr. Moebius collapsed three times from heart failure on Tuesday last, and his physician ordered him to take a rest. Mrs. Moebius and her daughter, who recently arrived from San Francisco, will manage the ranch while he is recovering his health. Ordinance No. 308, prohibiting the public outcry or oral solicitation for business upon public streets by jitney managers, was passed. Ordinance No. 309, fixing the tax rate for the fiscal year, amounting to $1.45 on the $100, was passed. A resolution, making it a misdemeanor for the city marshal or his deputies to enter establishments where liquor is sold, while on duty, was passed. The penalty attached, is a dismissal from the force. The bond of Recorder Howard in the sum of $300, and that of Marshal Kellenberger in the sum of $5000 were received and ordered filed. There was only one bid submitted for the paving of intersections on West Broadway. George R. Curtis of Los Angeles was awarded the contract at 10½ cents per square foot. Mr. Curtis at a previous meeting had been awarded the contract to pave West Broadway, his bid being 10½ cents. It is estimated that it will require about five months to complete the job. The L. A. Paving Co. of Los Angeles secured the contract to pave East Broadway and intersections and is now engaged upon the work. It is estimated that it will require about two months to complete the same. Trustee Stark stated that Frank Steadman had made application for the position of inspector of West Broadway paving. Engineer Steward's advice was asked regarding the appointment and he stated that he saw no reason why Mr. Steadman could not fill the position, as he was competent and efficient. The appointment was left to teh committee on public improvements who will take it up with the city engineer. Resolution No. 131, relative to or- Continued on Page 2
