ANAHEIM-YORBA DISTRICT TO BE FORMED ENTHUSIASTIC SUPPORT GIVEN PROJECT BY CITIZENS OF NEIGHBORING TOWN AND THIS CITY BOARD OF TRADE STARTS BALL ROLLING FOR CITY OF FIFTH CLASS—NO ORANGE SHOW A delegation of representative citizens of Yorba attended the meeting of the Anaheim board of trade Monday evening and all were in favor of joining with this city for the purpose of forming a river protection district, the river frontage along the west bank to extend from the Yorba bridge to the Olive bridge. A mbition was unanimously carried to have the committee from Anaheim work in conjunction with the Yorba committee and pro- up quite a bit of dust and started something when he said that the piece of paved road at the extension of North Lemon street was just about the worst piece of road building he had ever seen. He intimated that the surface of the roadbed was out of plumb several inches and that the gutters on either side were three or four feet deep. He wanted to know why these abominable conditions were permitted. Supervisor Schumacher, who happened to be present, told an entirely different story, and convinced his auditors that the paved road was all right, and it is, according to the opinion of competent road builders. The fact was brought out that some of the owners along that stretch of road had been using the sides of the street for irrigation ditches to conduct water to their land and consequently were mad when the earthen sides were plowed in and the dirt roadbed on the sides leveled up to form a suitable shoulder to the pavement. Mr. Schumacher's explanation was entirely satisfactory and that gentleman was later given a hearty vote of thanks for supervising the work so well. John Ziegler at this juncture stated, that while a certain property owner on that highway had refused to contribute one cent toward the paving of the Lemon street extension, just so A delegation of representative citizens of Yorba attended the meeting of the Anaheim board of trade Monday evening and all were in favor of joining with this city for the purpose of forming a river protection district, the river frontage along the west bank to extend from the Yorba bridge to the Olive bridge. A motion was unanimously carried to have the committee from Anaheim work in conjunction with the Yorba committee and proceed at once to form the district. The line to the west and south will be placed at a point which in the opinion of the committee they deem best. A short strip of river frontage just above the Yorba bridge, which it is necessary to have improved, will be included within the area to be reclaimed, and the committee will endeavor to have the property owners join the district. The strip is small, but it is said that unless the river bank there is strengthened the territory below would be menaced from overflow from that point should it remain as it is. Mr. Scott and Mr. Vesper of Yorba addressed the meeting in regard to the formation of a district including this city and Yorba, and both gentlemen expressed the will of all their neighbors in saying that the two sections join hands and work for the successful formation of the district. The committee will take the mater up with the board of supervisors at their earliest convenience, as it is proposed to begin work at once. It is confidently expected that the supervisors will favor the district as proposed and order its creation. Garden Grove has already petitioned the supervisors to form a district of their own and the board now have it under consideration. Final date has been set for its hearing in the near future and it is proposed to have the Anaheim-Yorba petition up at the same time, in order that both may be acted upon at once. The preliminary work so far accomplished by the city has been laid out so it can easily be included in the permanent work to be put in later, and all monkeys so far spent upon the river has been placed judiciously. Chairman Eygabroad gave a detailed account of moneys received and expended, and his report was accepted and ordered filed. The list of donations was ordered published. In this connection for the faithful performance of work done by Mr. V. U. Simpson and Chas. Eygabroad a vote of thanks from the Anaheim board of quently were mad when the earthen sides were plowed in and the dirt roadbed on the sides leveled up to form a suitable shoulder to the pavement. Mr. Schumacher's explanation was entirely satisfactory and that gentleman was later given a hearty vote of thanks for supervising the work so well. John Ziegler at this juncture stated, that while a certain property owner on that highway had refused to contribute one cent toward the paving of the Lemon street extension, just so soon as the work had been completed, he has raised the price of his twenty acres along that thoroughfare to the tune of $5000 more than he ever asked before. The paving of the northern extension of Lemon street having been reported completed, upon motion of F. A. Yungbluth, and seconded by Herman Stern and others, a vote of thanks was extended to Supervisor Schumacher for his efforts in accomplishing this much needed improvement. Property owners on North Lemon street contributed liberally to a fund for paving the strip, which is just outside the city limits, and the remainder of the money was provided by this road district. Assembly bill No. 387, which endeavors to create the office of state road boss, he to have a free rein to build roads in any county, thereby usurping that authority now vested in the supervisors came in for censure, and efforts are to be made to have the representatives in the legislature use their best endeavors to defeat the measure. It is said the bill would be very unsatisfactory were it enacted into law, for the reason that it would give one man receiving a fancy salary, too much authority in road building. The board gave its endorsement to holding the state convention of the Order of Eagles in this city in 1918. The convention will be attended by 2000 delegates. An invitation will be forwarded to the convention soon to convene in Redding asking that the next convention be held in Anaheim. The committee on membership proposed the name of Capt. Alexander Henry as a member. Accepted.

so it can easily be included in the permanent work to be put in later, and all moneys so far spent upon the river has been placed judiciously. Chairman Eygabroad gave a detailed account of moneys received and expended, and his report was accepted and ordered filed. The list of donations was ordered published. In this connection for the faithful performance of work done by Mr. V. U. Simpson and Chas. Eygabroad a vote of thanks from the Anaheim board of trade was extended these gentlemen, and the newspapers of this city were also thanked for their helpful efforts in furtherance of the good work. The committee appointed to investigate the advisability of making Anaheim a city of the fifth class reported that legal advice had been obtained and that a definite report would be submitted in the near future. The committee on the Valencia Orange show reported that in their opinion the time was inopportune to hold the orange show this year. The time was too short and the undertaking too great to permit of a satisfactory solution of the venture. In all probability the Valencia Orange show will be staged next year. The date of the coming Chautauqua has been fixed for May 9th to 15th. It was stated that Fullerton will cooperate with this city in making the Chautauqua a success. A large attendance is expected, and a program of unusual merit will be given. Many noted speakers will be present besides a musical and literary program will be rendered. The committee on advertising reported progress in regard to issuing a booklet, which is now in process of compilation. It was ordered that the board of trade purchase a flag, and that a flagpole be erected over the board of trade rooms, from which the Stars and Stripes will be floated to the breezes. A man from the northside kicked Mills—"I know of two or three instances where men have sold their orange orchards in this section, and then went up into the smudge pot country and invested their money in orchards there. Here we have no use for smudge pots whatever, while in the upper valley whenever smudge pots are started going it cost the growers from $5 to $10 per acre, and sometimes more; this in addition to the many other items of expense incurred in raising oranges. I want to know why these men do those things. Can anyone give me a solution?" Stern—"I can. All the fools are not dead yet." Fred Greswell of the exhibit committee is to receive a small monthly donation, with which he will purchase jars and preservatives to be used in keeping fruits for exhibition purposes. Heretofore Mr. Greswell has been furnishing these adjuncts and it was thought that it would be fair to now reimburse him for these monetary outlays. Mr. Greswell is a live booster. John Ziegler—"Mr. President, I want to know why it is that some men live here, and do business here, and maintain old antiquated buildings on the business streets, but go to Long Beach and erect modern structures in the business section there. I move you, that you appoint a committee to see if these men won't invest some of their money in beautifying Anaheim. I have spent my money in erecting a fine hotel here and I would like to see other property owners improve their holdings. It would be good for the town." J. P.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE Anaheim, California, Thursday, March 29, 1917 GEM COUNTY OF FAMOUS WONDERLAND MATCHLESS ADVANTAGES OF THIS CITY PORTRAYED BY FORMER CHICAGOAN E. GRANT WHITE MAKES ADDRESS AT LUNCHEON THAT RINGS TRUE A very fair number of citizens attended the business men's luncheon on Thursday, and while the crowd did not in any way compare to the large attendance of people that greeted the congressional committeemen the week previous—which by the way was declared to be a red-letter day in Anaheim's history—all who were present thoroughly enjoyed the splendid address made by Mr. White, and it is doubtful if a more meritorious tribute was ever paid to this section as that JOE BURKE DELIVERS ST. PATRICK'S DAY SPEECH The Irish of Orange County was His Subject, and he Made a Hit Speaking of the St. Patrick's day celebration at Sacramento a press correspondent has the following to say about Orange county's member of the assembly: The speech of Assemblyman Joe C. Burke, of Santa 9na, "The Irishman from Orange county," was one of the biggest hits of the St. Patrick day's banquet at the Traveler's hotel. He responded to the toast, "The Irish of Orange county." Joe has a splendid speaking voice and he was in good voice in addressing his auditors on this Irish occasion. Burke is one of the most popular members of the assembly. When he arose to speak his hearers demanded, "What's the matter with Joe Burke," in the standard form of no uncertain terms, and the crowd echoed its answer in strentorian tones, "He's all right." Just to show that there is versatility to the color scheme of Josephus just one week earlier he was as happily orange-hued as he was a week later enveloped in emerald. With Assemblyman Crombie Allen of Ontario, and Robert Horbach of Porterville, OLD BUILDING IS SOON TO BE RAZED ANAHEIM OPERA HOUSE WILL GIVE PLACE TO A MODERN BUSINESS BLOCK WORK ON ITS DEMOLITION WILL BEGIN WITHIN THIRTY DAYS Another of the old time buildings of Anaheim has been condemned to demolition, and will be razed to the ground to make room for a modern structure. The Anaheim opera house, at the corner of Center and Olive streets, will be torn down within a few weeks, and on its sight will be erected a fine two story business block. Fred C. and Adolf Hartman, sons of F. A. Hartman of Los Angeles, owner of the building, were in town Monday accompanied by John P. Krempel, an architect, and announced that within a few weeks a force of men tended the business men's luncheon on Thursday, and while the crowd did not in any way compare to the large attendance of people that greeted the congressional committee the week previous—which by the way was declared to be a red-letter day in Anaheim's history—all who were present thoroughly enjoyed the splendid address made by Mr. White, and it is doubtful if a more meritorious tribute was ever paid to this section as that which came eloquently and sincerely from the lips of one who unhesitatingly calls this the gem of the wonderland. C. B. Berger presided at the function, and said this world has its sorrows and it pleasures, and upon this occasion he said it afforded him pleasure to announce that, while in the past speakers at these luncheons figuratively piloted their barges into our harbor and after visiting awhile took their departure, in this instance the speaker whom he would introduce has sailed his ship into our haven of rest, has cast anchor and intends to become one of us, and said that it pleased him to introduce Mr. E. Grant White, who would address the assemblage. Mr. White, who for many years practiced law in the city of Chicago, has come to Anaheim with his wife and four children to make this his future home. Mr. White after thanking the toastmaster for the honor conferred upon him, said earlier in the day he had been asked upon what subject he would discourse, but said he did not know, for he was a stranger here, and did not know a friend when he landed and did not feel qualified to tell the people of Anaheim anything new, but that he came to learn. When he said he knew no one whom he could call a friend, he felt as though he uttered an untruth, because he knew full well that every man who lived in this section—the gem of the wonderland—and who was a citizen of this grand country, over which floated the Stars and Stripes—was his friend. Mr. White for a number of years lived in the state of Illinois, the land where is sung the song of Abraham Lincoln, the land where God has been good to His people, but he now seeks to cast his lot in this glorious wonderland—the land of sunshine and flowers. The speaker said he realized that we have other things here besides sunshine and flowers, and Southern California is reaching out for busimily. When he arrose to speak his hearers demanded, "What's the matter with Joe Burke," in the standard form of no uncertain terms, and the crowd echoed its answer in strentorian tones, "He's all right." Just to show that there is versatility to the color scheme of Josephus just one week earlier he was as happily orange-hued as he was a week later enveloped in emerald. With Assemblyman Cromble Allen of Ontario, and Robert Horbach of Porterville, representing the great orange growing counties of Orange, San Bernardino and Tulare, he drafted a joint resolution adopted unanimously by the assembly designating March 10 as California Orange Day for 1917. Although a member of the so-called minority of the assembly he is one of the best liked and most popular members of the whole body and his legislation does not suffer one bit because he is not of the so-called majority. DR. HARVEY DISCHARGED The preliminary hearing of Dr. C. W. Harvey of this city, charged with having caused the death of Mrs. Tennie Baker, a colored woman, by performing a criminal operation upon her, occupied three days in Justice Cox's court at Santa Ana last week. The attorneys for the people and for the defense made a hard fight, but when the prosecution rested it was apparent that the evidence presented was not conclusive, and after the doctor had testified in his own behalf Justice Cox discharged him on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to justify him in holding him for trial in superior court. Mr. and Mrs. A. Nagel and son, Kenneth, were visiting in Los Angeles Saturday. H. O. Henderson made a business trip to Los Angeles Saturday. Mrs. Theodore Roberts was visiting in Los Angeles Sunday. J. E. Baker, wife and son, Floyd, were visiting with friends at Hawthorne last week. G. M. Simpson left Saturday for El Paso, Texas, on a visit, to his son. He expected to stop off at Phoenix, Ariz. John Ohm, Carl Pressel and William molition, and will be razed to the ground to make room for a modern structure. The Anaheim opera house, at the corner of Center and Olive streets, will be torn down within a few weeks, and on its sight will be erected a fine two story business block. Fred C. and Adolf Hartman, sons of F. A. Hartman of Los Angeles, owner of the building, were in town Monday accompanied by John P. Krempel, an architect, and announced that within a few weeks a force of men would begin tearing down the building, and as soon as the ground was clear, work on the new structure would begin. The new building will be two stories in height, have a frontage of 74 feet and will extend to the alley, giving it a depth of 120 feet. It will have a basement the entire length of the building. The Anaheim opera house was at one time the pride of the town. It was built in 1888 by Theodore Reiser, and passed by inheritance to F. A. Hartman. It has a 52 foot frontage, and besides the auditorium in the second story contains two large store rooms on the ground floor. One of the rooms is now occupied by the Gazette office; but the other is vacant. This building has been twice condemned as unsafe by the city council, but after repairs were made managed to pass inspection. The building has a reputation for being unsafe which prevents many people from attending entertainments. Moreover it is almost thirty years old, and Mr. Hartman has concluded that it is not in keeping with the business buildings of modern Anaheim, that it is occupying valuable ground, and must give place to an up-to-date structure. The new block will be one of the finest in Anaheim. The Gazette office will be moved into the Bushard building just west of the opera house. The next issue of this newspaper will be printed at the old quarters, but the following week it will be issued from its new home. The work of moving the plant will begin immediately after next week's paper is printed. A long time lease has been entered into with Mr. Bushard. We extend an invitation to all our friends to call and see us in our new quarters. ANAHEIM NATIONAL BANK HAS NEW PRESIDENT W.A.Dolan purchases Entire Interest Mr. White for a number of years lived in the state of Illinois, the land where he is sung the song of Abraham Lincoln, the land where God has been good to His people, but he now seeks to cast his lot in this glorious wonderland—the land of sunshine and flowers. The speaker said he realized that we have other things here besides sunshine and flowers, and Southern California is reaching out for business in all its varied forms. This is not alone a rich man's country, for here the opportunity awaits any and all branches of legitimate trade. Mr. White has purchased a ten acre orange orchard at the end of Placentia avenue, just on the outskirts of this city, and besides making it his home, he is also going to make it pay good interest upon the money invested. Many speakers in the past have paid this section unstinted praise, but Mr. White stated that when he arrived in Southland he devoted many weeks to visiting the various counties of the state and must confess that Orange county was the best of all. And when he traversed this county from one end to the other, he said no other section appealed to him as did this city and its immediate environs. And here he will stay. The beautiful scenery, our matchless climate, the fine orchards and good paved highways, made a lasting impression upon his mind and he cared to seek no further for a home for his loved ones. Mr. White, as he looked over his audience, said he saw many gray headed men, whom he now feels he can call friends and neighbors, to whom he would appeal to for counsel and advice, and to the younger men, too, for that matter, and at all times, could be relied upon to do his utmost to further promote the best interests of this city and county. Mr. Berger announced that Wm. Falkenstein would be chairman of today's meeting. Mrs. Theodore Roberts was visiting in Los Angeles Sunday. J. E. Baker, wife and son, Floyd, were visiting with friends at Hawthorne last week. G. M. Simpson left Saturday for El Paso, Texas, on a visit, to his son. He expected to stop off at Phoenix, Ariz. John Ohm, Carl Pressel and William Sandersfeldt returned a day or two ago from a several days' trip into the Bakersfield country. The gentlemen report a pleasant trip, but found crop conditions not of the best. Frost has occurred frequently and the cold weather has retarded the growth of crops, especially grain. They were on a 20,000-acre sheep ranch, where over 6000 head are kept. Basque herders care for the flocks, and carry tents with them which affords the men shelter at night. Food and water is carried to the herders up in the hills once a week. They work for $40 a month and draw their pay envelope yearly. One herder said he had not drawn his salary for five years. The visitors traveled 576 miles by auto before returning home. Mrs. Ben Baxter gave a party one evening last week to a number of young people in celebration of the fourteenth birthday of her daughter, Thora Baxter. A dozen of Miss Thora's girl friends were present and enjoyed a delightful evening. George Ziegler and Mrs. Bessle, both of this city, were married by Justice Cox at Santa Ana Saturday. Five candidates for the postmaster of Buena Park were examined at the board of trade rooms Saturday, Miss Alice Robinson and E. R. Deering of the Anaheim post office being the examiners. A business deal of importance was consummated Monday when W. A. Dolan purchased a controlling interest in the Anaheim National Bank and was promptly elected president of that institution by the directors. F. C. Krause, who was one of the founders of the bank, and has always been connected with it, first as cashier, afterward as president, disposed of his entire interest to Mr. Dolan, and retires altogether from the business. The many friends and patrons of the bank will regret that Mr. Krause is no longer connected with it. Mr. Dolan, the new president comes from Nebraska. He has been in the banking business for twenty years, and was the chief owner of the State Bank of Indianola. His father has lived in Los Angeles for the past 13 years, and the son made frequent trips here to visit him. Southern California appealed to him, consequently he recently disposed of his Indianola bank and moved to Los Angeles. Looking about for a place to locate he decided that Anaheim was the ideal town, and invested his money here. He is a banker of wide experience, and the Anaheim National will flourish under his management. As soon as a suitable residence is secured he will move his family down from Los Angeles. Mr. Krause will remain with the bank for some weeks. Aside from that the only plan he has in mind for the plant will begin immediately after next week's paper is printed. A long time lease has been entered into with Mr. Bushard. We extend an invitation to all our friends to call and see us in our new quarters. ANAHEIM NATIONAL BANK HAS NEW PRESIDENT W. A.

LOCAL AERIE OF EAGLES AFTER STATE CONVENTION Members Receiving Assurances of Hearty Support From All Over The State The local aerie of Eagles has inaugurated a movement that unless all signs fail, which for one moment they will not entertain—which will be the means of bringing the 1918 state convention of Eagles to Anaheim. Last year while the Eagles were in session at San Diego local members launched a campaign for annexing the 1918 convention, and were given assurances of hearty support by many members all through the state. The local aerie feel confident that they will be successful in their endeavors to bring the state conclave here, and delegates to this convention this year will leave no stone unturned to win the coveted prize. Anaheim has accommodations to care for a goodly number of delegates, and all or nearly all, it is confidently expected can be entertained FORCED TO LEAVE WAR RIDDEN MEXICO JONATHAN KRAEMER WITH HIS FRIENDS AT PLACENTIA AFTER 25 YEARS ABSENCE HIS RANCH REPEATEDLY LOOTED AND HIS STOCK CARRIED AWAY BY BANDITS After an absence of a quarter of a century, most of these years being spent in troubled Mexico, Jonathan Kraemer, one of the early settlers of this region, has returned to find the flourishing town of Placentia standing on the land which he once owned.

After reviewing the entire field, from the time of the introduction of Vedalia, which, as he says, saved the citrus industry from threatened extinction, to the present, he has the following to say on the outlook for this type of work: "There will be a very considerable development of this method of warfare against injurious insects in the future. It should be termed the biological method of fighting insects, and, looking at the problem in a broad way, so far as this country is concerned, when we consider that more than one-half of our principal crop pests have been accidentally imported from other countries, there seems no reason why a systematic study of a very large number of parasitic and predatory insects native to the countries from which these pests were accidentally invention, and were given assurances of hearty support by many members all through the state.
