There is one man on the ballot in the November election who has no need to worry about the strength of the opposition or the result of the count. He is William Schumacher, candidate for supervisor in the third district. Mr. Schumacher has served one term of four years on the board of supervisors, and his work has been so satisfactory to the voters of the third district that no man was brought forward to oppose him, and all parties united in endorsing him. Mr. Schumacher is a republican, is running as a republican candidate, and the fact that the democrats have endorsed his career and adopted him, is a flattering tribute to his administration of the office, because his predecessor was a democrat and he defeated his democratic opponent in the last election by the narrow margin of one vote. During his term of office Schumacher has accomplished more for his district than all his predecessors combined. The good roads system which forms a network of paved and oiled highways through the northern portion of the county are the result of his handiwork. He has been indefatigable in his efforts to secure justice for his district, and has succeeded. For these reasons the adherents of all political parties, who are fighting for their preferred candidates for other (Advertisement) CALIFORNIA DRY A. B. Markle, Chairman Publicity Committee History surely "do" repeat herself. The old Simon pure American party, like Lazarus, has been raised from the dead. The Hon. George Bauer, Bauer in Deutsch, Peasant in American, has announced himself as candidate for the Presidency. His Honor does not accept the statement "Man wants but little here below," for in his platform, Geo. wants the whole shooting match, lock, stock and barrel with the gun wads thrown in. In his notice of Oct. 2, he calls for candidates for National electors, State and County officials, etc., etc. From his exuberance of joy from the cocksureness of his filling the Presidential chair at the Capital, with that portion of his anatomy that nature has provided, he forgot a running mate. A Vice President. Is it because there is but one man (himself) in the great American party that could qualify? I remember when the party was born, and died in the "bornin'." The years were those in which secession was incubated and the "Clutch" was the states of secession and the War of the Rebellion. The great American party was born with Millard Fillmore for President and A. J. Donaldson for Vice President, receiving 8 electoral votes, and 874,538 of the popular vote. About one and one half as many as the population of Los Angeles. It was better known as the KNOW NOTHINGS, a name suitable for the head of our ticket; and I now give due notice that I am able and will qualify for the second place on the ticket of the great American Know-Nothing party. Just think, Ye Scribe, Vice President of the American Republic. Why, that will, Ex-Officio, make me speaker of the Senate. Hully-gee, won't I speak? I can imagine our first meeting of state with the ministers (not preachers) plenipotentiary and consuls and embassadors, etc., etc. I think I hear the minister from the Vaterland saying: "Mein Freund, Spreechen sie Deutsch?" and our KNOW-NOTHING president-replying in his pure American vernacular, "Gh-huh."

During his term of office Schumacher has accomplished more for his district than all his predecessors combined. The good roads system which forms a network of paved and oiled highways through the northern portion of the county are the result of his handiwork. He has been indefatigable in his efforts to secure justice for his district, and has succeeded. For these reasons the adherents of all political parties, who are fighting for their preferred candidates for other offices, have unanimously agreed that the interests of the district would be subserved by retaining him on the board of supervisors. There are more than 8000 voters in the third supervisor district. In the primary election August 25 there were a dozen scattering votes cast against Schumacher. That represents the strength of the opposition to him. FOR ASSEMBLYMAN, J. C. BURKE That J. C. Burke will succeed himself as assemblyman from Orange county is a conclusion that even his political opponents will admit. Burke was the unanimous choice of the republican party, which will sweep the county by a majority of at least 5000 on November 7, besides numerous democratic friends in every precinct in the county endeavored to put his name on their ticket at the primary election, running him a close second to W. W. Simon, the regular democratic candidate. They did not succeed in getting him on their ticket, but they will vote for him on election day. Mr. Burke served one term in the assembly and made a record that met the approval of all his constituents. He stood loyally by his party, and was indefatigable in working for the interests of his own section. He gained a reputation during the sessions of the last assembly that will give him a high standing in the future and will make him one of the most prominent members of the legislature. Orange county could not afford to retire him. During his youthful days Mr. Burke was a resident of this section of the county, and began his career as a business man here. He began as a buyer of oranges before the establishment of the co-operative associations, and dealt so squarely and honestly with the growers that all his old customers, irrespective of their political beliefs, are lined up for him and will support him at the polls.

I can imagine our first meeting of state with the ministers (not preachers) plenipotentiary and consuls and embassadors, etc., etc. I think I hear the minister from the Vaterland saying: "Mein Freund, Spreechen sie Deutsch?" and our KNOW-NOTHING president-replying in his pure American vernacular, "Uh-huh." It is too bad that these old effete United States had to lumber along through the administrations of Washington, and Jefferson and Lincoln until this Peasant and the Preacher are called from their lowly stations amidst the proletariats and plebeians to the highest stations in the gift of the people, but we are more than willing to make the sacrifice. Our worthy President-to-be wants all church property taxed. Well, why not go further? About the first Infidel Socialist that ever inflicted himself upon this country was Robt. Owen of New Lanark, Scotland. He affirmed in debate that the highest happiness of the human family required: 1st. There should be no elective government. 2nd. There should be no private rights of property. 3rd. There should be no religion. 4th. There should be no marriage. Consequently no homes. Children should be the property of the state at weaning. The experiment was inaugurated at New Harmony, Ind., and continued to grow and grow, and grow, until in a few years it was like a clipher with the rim rubbed off and a minus sign written before it. Another plank in OUR platform is "Free Whiskey," No revenue from the traffic, National, State or Municipal. Put that in your cigarette Mr. Wilson and Mr. Hughes, for you would not dare to put in in YOUR platform. "Me" and Geo. do. If you could once get the fool idea out of your head that revenue from Booze helps to pay taxes and lessens expense the people would vote the saisons out of Anaheim in a holy minute. Booze vendors surely pay license, but who pays the money over the bar to enable them to do so? Why, the taxpayers. But why give them fifty dollars to put one in our city treasury?

He began as a buyer of oranges before the establishment of the co-operative associations, and dealt so squarely and honestly with the growers that all his old customers, irrespective of their political beliefs, are lined up for him and will support him at the polls. Burke has been a resident of Santa Ana for a number of years, and has taken a prominent part in public affairs. He served a term as city clerk, and is now a practicing attorney. In addition to his reputation for square dealing with his fellowmen he has shown himself one of the ablest men in the county since coming into public life. He should be returned by an overwhelming majority. COPIES OF GREAT REGISTER Orders will be taken at this office for copies of the great register for the third supervisor district, containing names of voters in the 35 precincts of the district. Work upon printing these indexes will begin in a few days, and orders should be in hand immediately, as only a limited number of extra copies will be printed. ARE YOU REGISTERED Voters who have not registered this year must do so before Saturday night at midnight, or they will not be permitted to vote at the general election Nov. 7. Registration closes at midnight on Saturday, and all voters who have not registered since the first of the year should register before that time if they desire to vote at the next election.

There is mighty poor fun running afoul of a Boozer with an automatic or a bowle knife ready to carve your anatomy. Our Judges are not playing Court, but may I say it Mr. Judges, you are made to waste a lot of time trying the criminals made so by the spread of Anaheim booze over the County. The penitentiary, the jail, the poor farm, the asylums and detention home get the result and you, Mr. Taxpayer pungle up the taxes. I think at the next meeting of OUR National Committee, which at present is just "Me" and Geo., that I will move to amend our platform by inserting as follows: "The Great American KNOW NOTHING party demands that all Criminal and Indigent expense growing out of the booze traffic be taxed and collected from the California Prosperity League (which is the distellers, brewers, wholesalers, retailers and saloon keepers) in the several states, counties and municipalities where such expenses occur." In regard to our last plank I will inform you in the Gazette next week. In conclusion let me say to all my friends and relations, vote for "Me", for if Geo. should be assassinated, as were Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley—then, Oh, Glory! I would be president.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE—THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5 1916 REGISTRATION FIGURES Figures of registration in the Eleventh congressional district so far as returns have been received, indicate the election of R. B. Harbison, if republicans of the district will give him loyal support, which we believe they will do. The figures are as follows: republican 49,644, democratic 18,506, prohibition 5641, progressive 2812, socialist 2954, non-stated 27,429. These figures show a republican registration over the democratic vote of 31,138. Harbison ought to prove an easy winner. At the primary election August 25, the following votes were polled by each of the respective candidates: Harbison, 12,93; Edwards, 6739; Kettner, 7227; Hinkle, 3948; Crouch, 1473; Robbins, 798. Harbison ought to be a winner. The total registration in the district foots up 106,986.

MERRY HIKERS PASS THROUGH ORANGE COUNTY Were Part of Crew of Prince Eltel Friederich Before the War Mr. and Mrs. William Wanderwel and Fred Gluckert passed through on their hike around the world last Friday and stopped over night with G. C. Franke and family at Santa Ana, leaving the next day for San Diego. Mr. Wanderwel has had some harrowing experiences since he started his hike in 1914. He has crossed three continents, Europe, Africa and North America. He was captured twice as a spy and sentenced to be shot. He was held 26 hours and then released through the American government. He has belonged to a hikers' club since he was 14 years old. He is now 22. He left New York city in March of this year, and at Chicago in April was joined by his wife, 19 years old, who was formerly Miss Anna Centwenger. They crossed the Rockies on foot, visited Yellowstone Park, Yosemite Valley, San Francisco and Lake Tahoe. The trip from New York to San Francisco was made in 5 months, 22 days, along the Lincoln highway to Cheyenne. They plan to walk through Mexico to Nicaragua and Panama, and from their take ship for the South Sea Islands. They are accompanied on the hike by their guide, Fred Gluckert. Mr. and Mrs. Wanderwel are on their honeymoon, they say, which will not be over until they have circled the globe. All three of the party were working on the steamer Prince Eltel Friederich before the war, Mr. Wanderwel as quartermaster, Mr. Gluckert as wire- In Mexico and on the American border it has distinguished itself in government service.

The railroad commission has authorized the consolidation of all the local telephone exchange properties in Santa Barbara city and Santa Barbara county. The consolidation was authorized on condition that the amount of securities to be issued by the new company shall be materially reduced and that the new company shall file with the railroad commission a stipulation agreeing never to claim for its franchises any value in excess of the amount originally paid for them to the granting public authorities. Cutting off the stamp taxes and substituting therefor a tax on the profits of a few war materials—carefully omitting the sacred cotton of the South—may be good politics. But it is doubtful finance. Suppose the war should end as suddenly as it began. Many people think it will. The manufacture of munitions would cease equally suddenly—and there would then be no profits to tax. Of course, a bond issue is always possible; and it is always probable under a democratic administration. But the stamp taxes, burdensome and irritating as they are, always produced money, because the American people will use the telephone, the telegraph and the express lines, and they will continue to do business, no matter how difficult the administration tries to make it.
