RURAL CREDITS LAW NOW IN FORCE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RANCHERS ORGANIZING UNDER THE NEW STATUTE FIVE PER CENT MONEY AVAILABLE FOR FARM EXTENSION AND IMPROVEMENTS Applications have been made in Southern California for loans under the rural credits act, recently passed by Congress, and it is expected that many will take advantage of this opportunity to secure money for farm extensions and improvements at an interest rate of 5 per cent per annum. The method of securing this money, while somewhat complex, is nevertheless within the reach of ranchers if they will organize in conformity with the requirements of the act, which should be done only with the advice and guidance of a responsible lawyer. The plan laid down by the law is as follows: At least ten land owners must form an association and they must borrow not less than $20,000. The lands on which this loan, which is a lien on the collective holdings of the members of the association, is to be secured, must be unincumbered when the money is available, meaning that if there is on the land a mortgage or other lien, this debt must be lifted. The government is safeguarded against bad judgment or "liberality" on the part of the three appraisers who are members of the association, by its own check through its own agent, and also by the fact that every association is responsible for the debt of every member thereof. Ranchmen desiring fuller details can secure them by writing to the United States Treasury Department and asking for Circulars No. 1 and 2, which set forth in detail the plan of organization and conduct of farm loan associations under the Federal Rural Credits Act. WILSON POLICIES IRRECONCILABLE In the last few days President Wilson has given utterance to three economic policies that are absolutely irreconcilable. He asserts that American producers should compete "on even terms" with the producers of all the rest of the world. He advocates the eight-hour day. He opposed a protective tariff. If the American workman is to have an eight-hour day and no protective tariff, how can he possibly be "on even terms" with the foreign producer who works 10 or 12 or even longer hours? If the American workman is to be placed "on even terms" with the foreigner, he must work nearly the same number of hours and adopt practically the same standards of living. While it is true that a man working eight hours will produce more per hour than the man who works twelve, it is utterly impossible that American workers laboring eight hours at high wages can produce commodities as cheaply as Chinese laborers working. STATE FINANCE EXPLAINED CHAMELE FIGURES FOR PASSAGE MADE PUBLIC STATE CONTROL ONE HUNDRED A FIVE MILLIONS PAST FIVE The total receipts its cities and counties all sourecs, was $166 expenditures for all 422,681, according to Johnson S. Chamler.

The plan laid down by the law is as follows: At least ten land owners must form an association and they must borrow not less than $20,000. The lands on which this loan, which is a lien on the collective holdings of the members of the association, is to be secured, must be unincumbered when the money is available, meaning that if there is on the land a mortgage or other lien, this debt must be lifted before the money can be secured, a detail that can be readily arranged through the escrow department of any of the title companies. If the amount asked for exceeds the existing mortgage on the land pledged for the loan, the money may be had if it can be shown that it is needed for, and will be applied to, the purchase of legitimate farm needs, such as fertilizer, seed, implements or other accessories. The plan of organization is simplicity itself. The ranchmen, ten or more, meet and an association, with a name selected by those present, is temporarily formed. Next a committee is named to draw up articles of incorporation for the association. These articles set forth the names of the incorporators and the territory or district in which they intend doing business. Copies of the articles are sent to the Federal Land Bank of the district in which the association is formed and the bank sends specific instructions as to further procedure. The association elects a board of directors, who in turn appoint a secretary-treasurer, or one man for each office, at will. These officers may also be elected by the association as a whole, in the discretion of the members. The salaries of the secretary and treasurer are fixed by the directors, as are practically all salaries the association pays. The next step is the naming of a loan and appraisal committee of three. This committee examines and appraises all lands offered as security for loans. All reports on loans must be approved and signed by three members before the land is acceptable as security. This committee must submit a written, signed report, describing the lands minutely, giving the legal description in full as it appears on the official records and setting forth the value of the lands and improvements separately. This report is forwarded to the Federal Bank. This work is preliminary. The report of the appraisal and loan committees works 10 or 12 or even longer hours? If the American workman is to be placed "on even terms" with the foreigner, he must work nearly the same number of hours and adopt practically the same standards of living. While it is true that a man working eight hours will produce more per hour than the man who works twelve, it is utterly impossible that American workers laboring eight hours at high wages can produce commodities as cheaply as Chinese laborers working twelve hours at wages which would scarcely buy even the butter for the American table. It is incomprehensible that any American workman will read these three policies of President Wilson and then declare by his ballot that he considers Wilson a possible leader in solving the economic problems that confront the people of the United States. The American workman must not be placed "on even terms" with the foreign producer, either in the matter of wages, hours of labor, or standards of living. The difference must be safe-guarded by a protective tariff. REGISTRATION FIGURES Complete registration figures reported by various registrars and county clerks throughout the state show that a Republican victory in November is mathematically certain. In the larger counties, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Alameda, the Republicans lead the Democrats by three to one. The Democratic party by these figures is proved to be a minority party. That this gerat voting strength will be behind the party nominees is certain. By no system of calculation or estimates can the Democrats base a claim of success or hope at the polls. In Los Angeles the total registration on October 7 ran to 355,520. This was divided as follows: Republicans, 159,236; Democrats, 52,183; not-stated, 97,996; Progressives, 11,211; Socialists, 10,488; Prohibitionists, 14,409. So it may be seen that in Los Angeles the Republican registration is a little more than three times that of the Democratic. It is conceded even by the Democrats that more than one-half of the failed-to-state vote will go to the Republican nominees and that the majority of the registered Progressives will vote for Hughes and Johnson. The same story is true of San Francisco. Expenditures by including San Francisco tailed $69,922,592, after years of 59.5 per cent from 1903 to 1913, with that decade of 115 fornia and 54.5 per centington government. California's percent for receipts and expenses five-year basis is unavailably average of all the S year showing, but quoted her expenditure over the average of all. The city receipts of San Francisco were increase of 46.9 per cent against a 99 per cent all the cities in the city to 1913.

California's percent for receipts and expenses five-year basis is unavailably average of all the S year showing, but quoted her expenditure over the average of all.

Summing up alone, her receipts those of her councresed in five y while the combine creased 80 per cent. The average of the ten years run 1913, including them as to receipts, 93 for loans. All reports on loans must be approved and signed by three members before the land is acceptable as security. This committee must submit a written, signed report, describing the lands minutely, giving the legal description in full as it appears on the official records and setting forth the value of the lands and improvements separately. This report is forwarded to the Federal Bank. This work is preliminary. The report of the appraisal and loan committee is passed on by the Federal Bank's appraisers, and in addition, the whole statement of the association's committee, including a list of names, with the address of each member of the association, is turned over to a special appraiser of the bank, who makes an additional examination of the lands offered. If everything is satisfactory, the Federal Bank issues a charter to the association, and it is ready to do business. The association is now formed, and the farmers are ready to make their loans as set forth in their applications. The loans are made to them subject to these requirements: Every borrower subscribes to the stock of the association to the extent of 5 per cent of the loan he has applied for. If he wants $100, he buys one share of stock for $5, or if he wants a loan of $1000 he takes $50 in stock. The borrower may pay in cash for his stock at the time he subscribes. He may wait until he gets his loan and then pay for his stock. If his loan is $1000 he may borrow $1050, thus having the greater sum net, and sufficient to pay for his stock. Or, he may borrow exactly $1000 and receive $950 in cash and his $50 in stock. The money the farmer pays his farm loan association for stock is used by the association to buy stock in the name of the association in the Federal Land Bank. There is no balking the question that a protective tariff is essential to this nation's future safety and prosperity. When the war is over we shall assuredly be attacked by a European combination of commercial houses backed by their respective governments. We must apply the policy of preparedness against that event, and the only preparedness that will give us prosperity—continued prosperity—and meet this condition is a protective tariff. Dr. M. M. Henderson, Dentist, Suite 1, Mullinix Bldg., Anaheim. STATE FINANCES EXPLAINED BY CHAMBERS FIGURES FOR PAST FIVE YEARS MADE PUBLIC BY THE STATE CONTROLLER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE MILLIONS TOTAL FOR PAST FIVE YEARS The total receipts of the State and its cities and counties for 1915, from all sources, was $167,012,148 and the expenditures for all purposes $176,422,681, according to a recent report of Johnson S. Chambers, State controller. As the Controller's office did not begin to keep a record of the financial transactions of the State's subdivisions until five years ago, says Mr. Chambers, I can only give the percentage of increase as to receipts and expenditures for the cities and counties for that period. One or two of my predecessors tried to gather data of this kind, but having no law, as we have now, to back them, failed. The State's receipts from all sources in 1915 were $29,830,182, an increase of 66.7 per cent in five years. The average of all the States for the ten-year period running from 1903 to 1913 was 94.3 per cent. California's increase in that decade having been 91 per cent, and the Federal Governance ways, and so full value was by no means received for every dollar expended. Doubtless there was much truth in what the delegate stated. A like criticism might apply, also, to other departments of government. The central idea in this delegate's mind was that by temperament and training educators were not fitted to manage the financial affairs of the schools to the best advantage. But the people, I take it, would rather err in the matter of overcost than under cost where the education of the children of the country is at stake. SPLINTERED PLANKS With the exception of the tariff, the campaign pledges of the democratic party contained in the campaign platform four years ago have almost without exception, been broken. They promised specifically, regulation of railroads by the enactment of a law that would give the Interstate Commerce commission power to control the issue of stocks and bonds. Such a bill passed the House and after a great deal of careful consideration it was reported to the Senate by the committee. It was then that the strong hand of President Wilson was seen and just on the eve of the redemption of this promise made to the American people, he stretched forth his mighty hand and killed the legislation. They pledged themselves in favor of free tolls for American shipping in the Panama Canal, but under the command of President Wilson, they openly violated this pledge and repealed a law which they had solemnly promised to enforce. Regardless of anyone's opinion as to the merits of the controversy, the fact stands out pledge on the tariff, the country would be better off. They have mostly violated good pledges and kept the bad ones. At the breaking out of the European war, the country was already beginning to show the evil effects of the democratic tariff. Business was closing down everywhere and men were thrown out of employment in all sections of the country. It is only because of the changed conditions in Europe brought about by the war, that the American people have not been suffering severely on account of their tariff enactment. The temporary prosperity that the country is now enjoying, has been brought about by the war in Europe. Just before its enactment, the evil effects of President Wilson's democratic administration were beginning to be seen and felt throughout the country. Men everywhere were out of employment, factories were closed down, the market of the farmer was beginning to dwindle and had it not been for the war that changed conditions entirely, our country today would be filled with soup houses, the farmers' market would be gone, the laborers would be out of employment and the evil effects of President Wilson's democratic policies would be manifest everywhere. President Wilson has been the most partisan president who ever occupied the White House. Under his leadership, party has been placed above country, and we have had an exhibition of the enactment of laws through secret caucus control rather than through legislative methods contemplated by our forefathers when they adopted the Constitution. Advertisement NOTICE TO REAL VOTERS expenditures for the cities and counties for that period. One or two of my predecessors tried to gather data of this kind, but having no law, as we have now, to back them, failed. The State's receipts from all sources in 1915 were $29,830,182, an increase of 66.7 per cent in five years. The average of all the States for the ten-year period running from 1903 to 1913 was 94.3 per cent. California's increase in that decade having been 91 per cent, and the Federal Government's 45 per cent. The State's 1915 expenditures for all purposes totaled $36,529,593, an increase of 103 per cent for the five years in question, as against an average of 105.9 per cent for all the States from 1903 to 1913, with an increase in that decade of 115 per cent for California and 54.5 per cent for the Washington government. California's percentages of increase for receipts and expenditures on the five-year basis is under that of the average of all the States on the ten-year showing, but for the decade quoted her expenditures are slightly over the average of the other States. The city receipts for 1915, including San Francisco, were $68,724,578, an increase of 46.9 per cent in five years, as against a 99 per cent increase for all the cities in the country, from 1903 to 1913. Expenditures by California cities, including San Francisco, for 1915 totaled $69,922,592, an increase in five years of 59.5 per cent, compared with 101 per cent average for all this nation's cities for the decade in question. The counties of the state, exclusive of San Francisco, collected in 1915, the sum of $68,457,388, an increase of 66.5 per cent in five years, as against 85.8 per cent, average ten-year advance, for all the counties of the country. And the counties, in 1915, expended $69,970,496, or 78.2 per cent more than five years before, as against 95.2 per cent, average, for all the counties of the various states of the Union in the ten years from 1903 to 1913. Summing up, taking California alone, her receipts, together with those of her counties and cities, increased in five years 60 per cent, while the combined expenditures increased 80 per cent. The average of all the states for the ten years running from 1903 to 1913, including their subdivisions, was as receipts, 93 per cent, and as to demption of this promise made to the American people, he stretched forth his mighty hand and killed the legislation. They pledged themselves in favor of free tolls for American shipping in the Panama Canal, but under the command of President Wilson they openly violated this pledge and repealed a law which they had solemnly promised to enforce. Regardless of anyone's opinion as to the merits of the controversy, the fact stands out boldly and indisputably that President Wilson compelled his party in Congress to violate the solemn platform pledge that he himself had promised the American people to enforce when he was asking for their votes. They pledged themselves to uphold and to extend the civil service, and yet, they have violated the law on every possible occasion and have taken thousands of places out from under the civil service and placed them on the political pie counter. They condemned the enactment of laws that would provide for additional places, and yet, they have provided for many more offices, which they have filled with democrats, than any other administration in the same length of time has done in the history of the country. They proclaimed that they were opposed to the filling of office by appointment for partisan reasons and as pay for political service, claiming that appointments should be made on the ground of fitness, and yet, they have filled more offices by incompetent men, as a reward for political service and on partisan grounds alone than any other administration has ever done. They promised to place the diplomatic service on a high moral plane, above the claamor and turmoll of politics, and in the face of this promise, they have degraded the service, filled it with "deserving democrats," where the primary reason for appointment was partisanship alone. They promised the American people an economical administration of government, but they have appropriated more money and been more extravagant in the management of the government than any other administration in our history—and this is aside and independent of any and all appropriations made on account of so-called preparedness. They promised to protect our citizens at home and abroad, and yet, the conduct of the administration in partisan president who every occupied the White House. Under his leadership, party has placed above country, and we have had an exhibition of the enactment of laws through secret caucus control rather than through legislative methods contemplated by our forefathers when they adopted the Constitution.

The average of all the states for the ten years running from 1903 to 1913, including their subdivisions, was as to receipts, 93 per cent, and as to expenditures, nearly 101 per cent. I am not endeavoring to make out a "good case" for California especially, but rather to show that conditions of which we in this state complain are general. Apparently we are better off than the average, but this is on a five-year showing for us as compared with a ten year showing for all the others. Perhaps if we had complete county and city figures for the decade, California would not fare so well. But that is not the question. Even the increases as shown here—state, county and city—are certainly heavy enough to cause grave concern, to warn us that we have drifted quite far enough, that the time has come for earnest thought, for the putting on of the brakes, for looking ahead. And so with this basis laid, let us consider causes and remedies. The support of our schools, our prisons and our hospitals constitute a heavy drain upon the people, whether considered from the point of view of the state, the counties or the cities. So, too, do our numerous elections. I recall while attending the National Tax Association Convention at Denver in 1914, hearing a delegate declare that our schools were costing far too much, that as good or better results could and should be secured with the expenditure of much less money, that those in charge of school finances, as a rule, were not business men—practical men—however worthy They promised the American people an economical administration of government, but they have appropriated more money and been more extravagant in the management of the government than any other administration in our history—and this is aside and independent of any and all appropriations made on account of so-called preparedness. They promised to protect our citizens at home and abroad, and yet, the conduct of the administration in Mexico shows that more American citizens have been killed on Mexican soil by bandits than were killed in the Spanish-American war. Without cause and without reason, they sent our army and our navy into Vera Cruz, with the avowed and ostensible purpose of compelling a Mexican butcher to salute the American flag. After the loss of about twenty American lives and the killing of seventy hundred innocent Mexicans, the expedition withdrew and the salute has not been given yet. The administration recognized as the head of the de facto government in Mexico an irresponsible and worthless pretender who has not now and never did have control of Mexico and whose rule has been marked along its entire course by the sacrifice of American rights and American lives. The Administration sent the entire army into Mexico to capture a bandit and without capturing him they are now withdrawing the troops at the demand of Carranza, who has had neither friendship nor respect for Americans or American rights. The Baltimore platform pledged the party and Mr. Wilson, its nominee, to the theory of one term in office for a president and Mr. Wilson's renomination and present candidacy stand boldly forth as a violation of a pledge solemnly made to the American people. If in addition to the violation of those pledges, they had also violated the The state department of weights and measures and the honest employ-county departments, is preparing to inaugurate an honest weights and Measure week, beginning Sunday, Oct. 22. Charles G. Johnson, the state superintendent, has appealed to the clergy throughout the state to make Honest Weights and Measures the subject of their sermons on October 22. During the week all weights and measure officials will lecture in the schools throughout the state on weights and measures and will demonstrate their commercial employment. All merchants associations, chambers of commerce, and merchants in the state will be enlisted in the campaign for honest weights and measures. The success of honest and legitimate trade demands accurate weights and meaasure and the honest employment of correct weighing apparatus. The purchasing public, which is chiefly concerned, should seriously interest itself in honest weights and measures. More commercial misconduct in weights and measures is due to carelessness and ignorance than to any other cause. Honest merchants invite your concern and cooperation; there should be no others.

F. Mears, 1st National Bank Building, Long Beach. Mr. Crowther awoke one morning, two months or more ago and looked at his wife's portrait dangling on the wall; beheld two pictures where there should be only one. During the day he saw objects double, and while at his meals had difficulty in seeing his food. He suffered from acute astigmatism, and his eyesight became rapidly worse, so that he was verging upon almost total blindness. Dr. Mears was recommended to him as an occultist who had performed wonderful cures for local people. He went to Long Beach and had a consultation with the doctor, who informed him that his eyesight could be restored, but that it would be necessary for him to wear glasses. He had never worn glasses, except in recent years to read with at night. After several treatments Mr. Crowther's eyesight returned, and after the lapse of two months his vision was restored perfectly. He was fitted with a pair of glasses, and last week visited the doctor again, leaving his glasses at home, their use being unnecessary. Dr. Mears was surprised to see his patient appearing without glasses, but upon an examination discovered that Mr. Crowther's eyes had entirely resumed their normal condition. Mr. Crowther says he will be very glad to give all information concerning Dr. Mears to his friends in this vicinity. He believes he would have been totally blind but for the miraculous cure performed by Dr. Mears. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT Of The County of Orange State of California George Bauer, Plaintiff, vs. Chas.
