RIVER CONTROL AFFECTS ALL VITALLY COMMITTEE MAKES EXTENDED REPORT TO BOARD OF TRADE LIVELY TIME HAD AT LOARA MASS MEETING SATURDAY EVENING The question of river protection was thoroughly discussed at the meeting of the board of trade Monday evening. The committee having in charge the formation of the district submitted the following report, which was received and ordered filed: "To Anaheim Board of Trade: 'Your committee on river protection united with a like committee of Yorba and this joint committee proceeded to organize and put thru the Anaheim-Yorba Storm Water District.' "The joint committee organized by electing Mr. Scott of Yorba chairman, and A. A. Mills as clerk. After much many of these very people only a year ago were fighting with Hellman, et al, to break the district which then included all. 'That cut out was about 2000 acres or 14% of the original, leaving about 13,000 acres. Its assessed valuation is about $150,000 or only 4½% of the original, leaving a little better than three and a fourth millions. Many objections were heard in reference to letting Mr. P. A. Stanton out. However, he still has 80 acres left in the district and he stated he had but 50 acres in that part of Stanton city that was cut out. This was as suggested by Mr. Stanton himself. 'The committee has had the deeds to right of way recorded. This is a valuable asset and includes the entire right of way, save a few parcels, two more of which have been promised. Your committee considers the district now formed as the most favorable of any that has been attempted. There is about half the assessed valuation of a year ago with just half the river front. This year we have practically the whole right of way while last year in the other half there was over 3½ miles of the most difficult part without a foot of the right of way obtained and this through the hostile section next to the Newbert protection district.

"To Anaheim Board of Trade: "Your committee on river protection united with a like committee of Yorba and this joint committee proceeded to organize and put thru the Anaheim-Yorba Storm Water District. "The joint committee organized by electing Mr. Scott of Yorba chairman, and A. A. Mills as clerk. After much discussion, a petition for a district gonig as far west as the Magnola road was presented. This included about one third of Stanton city. The district, as petitioned, contained about 15,000 acres all told with an assessed valuation of about three and one half million dollars. "There were a few legal protests filed against the formation of the district. Mr. P. A. Stanton protested on all land he had included in the district and requested that it all be excluded. At the hearing Mr. J. C. Burke represented a group asking that a certain parcel of land in the S. W. part of the district be let out and P. A. Stanton asked that not only all of his own land be excluded, but also that all of that portion of the city of Stanton that was included in the district be excluded. "After the formal hearing, the Supervisors informally suggested that the S. W. parcel, the Stanton city parcel, and practically all the rest lying west of the Brookhurst road be cut out and a district formed of the balance. This was strenuously objected to and then Mr. Stanton said that if the portion of Stanton city were cut out, he would not insist on the balance of his land being left out. "The matter was then postponed to July second. Sometimes before the petition was filed, a Mr. Schroder of the S. W. parcel, sought an interview with A. A. Mills and said that he had two parcels of land included in the district and suggested that one of these parcels and also the land of Mr. DeWitt be left out and that they would be willing to pay something like a dollar an acre to help along, and requested that this matter be brought before the committee which was done. After the informal proposition of the Supervisors, the committee decided to make a proposition to the people of the S. W. parcel and likewise Stanton city that they collect and put-in escrow $2.00 per acre to be paid to the There is about half the assessed valuation of a year ago with just half the river front. This year we have practically the whole right of way while last year in the other half there was over 3½ miles of the most difficult part without a foot of the right of way obtained and this through the hostile section next to the Newbert protection district. "For the committee, "A. A. MILLS, "Clerk." E. N. Cook of East Anaheim made a forceful address in favor of the district, saying that it was imperative that the work should proceed unhampered. He counselled a unity of action among the people and hoped that the protestants would see the error of their ways and give their time and energies to furthering the enterprise rather than tear down that already accomplished. The damaging of any piece of property by river overflow indirectly hurts all, and the speaker said he would be un-American were he to sit idly by and see his neighbor suffer from causes, that by united action upon the part of the people, could be avoided. Many ramches in the west country received more real damage than those upon the east side during the overflow two years ago, and it was not a question of a handful of men to solve, but required the loyal support of all—in that the future welfare of this matchless valley may be preserved. Many others addressed the meeting along similar lines including Capt. Ahlborn, Charles Criss, A. A. Mills, O. E. Steward, F. A. Backs, J. H. Whitaker, A. E. Bayliss and others. The project vitally affects the entire valley and the speakers urged that a unity of purpose be fostered among the people. The people of Anaheim, taxpayers within the confines of the city limits, will pay almost two thirds of the tax for protection, but candidly not a piece of land within the city ever received one cent worth of damage from overflow. Let protestants ponder over this one fact, Capt. Ahlborn said, and let them look upon the project with impartial eyes. Put away your local jealousies and extend the hand of good fellowship to your neighbor and all work for the fulfillment of this enterprise that means much to the northern half of Orange county. V. U.

However becomes a cemetery there are six graves owners therefore M these parcels and also the land of Mr. DeWitt be left out and that they would be willing to pay something like a dollar an acre to help along, and requested that this matter be brought before the committee which was done. After the informal proposition of the Supervisors, the committee decided to make a proposition to the people of the S. W. parcel and likewise Stanton city that they collect and put in escrow $2.00 per acre to be paid to the district, and then the committee would recommend to the Supervisors that these two parcels be excluded. O. E. Steward and A. A. Mills were delegated for the S. W. parcel and C. E. McFadden and B. Yorba for Stanton. Mr. Schroeder and Mr. DeWit were seen and said the proposition suited them and that they would attempt to collect the money for the S. W. parcel. Mr. Stanton and others were also seen, but made no definite reply. "On July 2nd, not a dollar in money had been put up by any of these people, so the joint committee submitted the matter without recommendation, asking the Supervisors to settle the matter in a just and equitable manner. "However, the suggestion that there was to be a change in the boundaries brought forth a new lot of objectors to a district other than that as petitioned for. The Supervisors decided that this group was too late and could have no legal standing. The board then excluded the S. W. and Stanton city parcels and formed the Anaheim-Yorba District of the balance. "This very much embittered the last group of objectors and on Saturday, July 7th, they met at the Loara school house and decided to fight the district. Many of these people spoke in very bitter terms of the leaving out of the Hellmans, Bixbys, Clarke, and others from the original petitions and for protection, but candidly not a piece of land within the city ever received one cent worth of damage from overflow. Let protestants ponder over this one fact, Capt. Ahlborn said, and let them look upon the project with impartial eyes. Put away your local jealousies and extend the hand of good fellowship to your neighbor and all work for the fulfillment of this enterprise that means much to the northern half of Orange county. Messrs Mills and Steward after discussing the merits of the district as outlined, gave a verbal report of the proceedings of the mass meeting held at Loara school house last Saturday evening, when protestants met to launch a campaign against the district as formulated. It was said that 575 acres was represented at the meeting and that it was the intention of the protestants to fight the district hard. They claim by eliminating the property holders as stated will be the death knell of the district. They propose to fight the district to the bitter end. A good deal of personal abuse was directed by a few of the protestants against Messrs. Mills and Steward, as committeemen, but the people as a whole who attended the meeting treated these gentlemen with the utmost courtesy. The grievances against these men, to those who know the circumstances, are fanciful. They have accepted no bribes, and together with the other committeemen, have actuated by the best motives in all their dealings in formulating the district. The lands excluded represent about fourteen per cent, and the very lands that have been eliminated by the supervisors at their recent meeting, the present protestants in the main, the speakers said, used their Continued on Page 8 NAHEIM GAZETTE Anaheim, California, Thursday, July 12, 1917 PERPETUAL CARE ASSURED FOR CEMETERY ALL OWNERS OF LOTS AT SATURDAY'S MEETING PLEDGE GENEROUS ASSISTANCE F. A. HARTMAN OFFERS MEMORIAL GATE DEDICATED TO MEMORY OF PIONEERS Sentiment among the members of the Anaheim Cemetery association who responded to the call for a meeting at the board of trade rooms Saturday afternoon was unanimous in favor of reclaiming our city of the dead from its present jungle condition and placing it under the perpetual care system. All those present, among them being a number of ladies, pledged themselves to remove all curbings and to pay a substantial sum toward financing the movement. V. U. Simpson, president of the association, who was chosen chairman of the meeting, stated that it would require a fund of $50,000 including the and the lots with ornamental enclosures would not be disturbed, but it would be the duty of the association to see that every foot of ground within the cemetery was cared for. He also stated that the Mausoleum company which owns three acres adjoining the original plot had expressed a desire to join with the directors and have its property placed under the system, but that would be a matter for future consideration. All lot owners whose address can be ascertained will be communicated with, and it is believed most of them, at least those who are able, will contribute. Nearly all the lot owners present at the meeting pledged themselves to do their part. John Hetebrink stated that a number at Fullerton had agreed to pay whatever was just. Anaheim, he said, was known as the best town in this section of California, but its cemetery was a disgrace to it. He had contemplated following the example of others and moving his dead to Loma Vista, but if the cemetery was placed under perpetual care he would not do so. He was ready to dis his share toward making it a beautiful place. The first step in the movement is to secure legal authority, after which the campaign for raising funds will begin. Several thousand dollars will be required to beautify the place, aside from the endowment fund. FORMER ANAHEIM BOY VIVID LANGUAGE AT PROTEST MEETING CITIZENS OF WEST SIDE WANT TO BE EXCLUDED FROM THE STORM WATER DISTRICT ASSESS THEMSELVES 25c PER ACRE FOR PURPOSE OF CARRY-ING MATTER TO COURTS People of Anaheim and its environments who have been endeavoring for a number of years to organize a storm water district for the purpose of protecting their property from the overflow waters of the Santa Ana river when it periodically gets full and goes on a rampage, inundating hundreds of acres of valuable land, are again being checkmated by a protest that will carry the matter into the superior court and will delay if it does not defeat the movement. The supervisors last Tuesday granted the request of the petitioners and authorized the formation of a district extending from the Yorba to the Olive bridges, with against all attempts to oppose or engage representing before them.

All those present, among them being a number of ladies, pledged themselves to remove all curbings and to pay a substantial sum toward financing the movement. V. U. Simpson, president of the association, who was chosen chairman of the meeting, stated that it would require a fund of $50,000 including the endowment, to reclaim the cemetery, place it in the desired condition, and furnish sufficient income to keep it up. There are only 47 lots yet to be sold and these will probably be disposed of within a year. The sale of lots is the only source of income derived by the association, and half of the money thus received, goes to the estate of the late Captain Barr, who deeded the addition in which the lots are situated. When these lots are sold there will never again be a dollar available for upkeep, and the place will revert to the jungle. Under the plans for perpetual care a number of streets will be vacated, which will release 132 additional lots in the original plot. The money these lots will bring will assist in raising the endowment fund. Gus Langenberger, one of the directors, announced that he had been n communication with F. A. Hartman of Los Angeles, who promised, if the improvement plans were carried out to donate a beautiful bronze memorial gate for the main entrance dedicated to the pioneers of Anaheim. He also agreed to subscribe a substantial sum toward the work. H. G. Ames, acting as attorney for the association, gave an explanation of the legal status of the proposition. When he began investigating the matter he found several obstacles in the way, but he believed they could all be removed. One of the obstacles is that the title to the property is defective. There is not a single copy of the by-laws in existence. The original deed was granted by Mr. Sichel, who represented the Stearns Rancho, and the cemetery was incorporated in 1866, but the title never left the original owner or his heirs. It was incorporated under the law of 1859 which was very limited in its scope of authority. However a plot of ground becomes a cemetery under the law if there are six graves upon it. The owners therefore have a perfect title, others and moving his dead to Loma Vista, but if the cemetery was placed under perpetual care he would not do so. He was ready to dis his share toward making it a beautiful place. The first step in the movement is to secure legal authority, after which the campaign for raising funds will begin. Several thousand dollars will be required to beautify the place, aside from the endowment fund. FORMER ANAHEIM BOY WRITES FROM FRANCE Just Recovering From Attack of Trench Fever * Fred Hudson has just received a letter from Victor G. Loly, a former Anaheim boy, who left here a year and a half ago, joined the Canadian army, and is now "somewhere in France." He worked in the Witman jewelry store while here. The letter is as follows: In Rest Billetts, France. June 14th, 1917. My Dear Fred: Was very pleased to receive the photo of the youngster this evening, he certainly looks fine and healthy. As you will see, I am now having a rest—what we call "a month's Divisional rest," and so we are billited about (——) miles from the line, in barns of an old farmhouse. We put in four or five hours drill daily, so we are feeling fine. Today we held the Battalion sports, and on Saturday the Brigade sports take place. I have now put in ten months in France, how time travels, for it seems but yesterday since I was with you. We had a great time in April, when we took part in the offensive. Our fellows attacked and captured one of the enemy's strongest fortified positions. I can assure you we had an exciting time. We captured several thousand prisoners. Two weeks after the offensive began I went to hospital with "trench fever." This complaint is caused through exposure, and the system being generally run down. I was away for a month, and had a good time. I was treated like a lord in the hospital and to be honest, very much regretted leaving the place. I am enclosing a photo of myself taken just after leaving the hospital. The photo is a poor one, as all my friends say that they would not recognize me. Please give my kind regards to Mrs. tecting their property from the overflow waters of the Santa Ana river when it periodically gets full and goes on a rampage, inundating hundreds of acres of valuable land, are again being checkmated by a protest that will carry the matter into the superior court and will delay if it does not defeat the movement. The supervisors last Tuesday granted the request of the petitioners and authorized the formation of a district extending from Yorba to the Olive bridges, with a river frontage of five miles. There was no unseemly squabble at this meeting, and everything appeared to be satisfactory to all parties. Certain persons within the city of Stanton and its adjacent territory, representing 1920 acres of land protested against being taken into the district on the ground that their holdings were not endangered by overflows, and as the board of trade committee in charge of the matter made no objection to their withdrawal the supervisors eliminated them and formed a district comprising over twelve thousand acres. However the elimination of the Stanton folks raised the ire of the people of West Anaheim who held a mass meeting at the Loarra school house Saturday night and threw a monkey wrench into the machinery that will delay its progress for some time if it does not defeat it altogether. Some of these people have hitherto opposed being included in a storm water district because they were in no danger from inundation, but on this occasion they resented the elimination of the Stanton folks and even charged that members of the board of trade committee had been bribed to permit them to be excluded without a protest. The meeting was a stormy one, and the members of the board of trade committee, City Engineer Steward and A. A. Mills, thought for a time they would be invited to leave the house. However W. G. Mason, the chairman, kept the rabid portion of the assemblage in control, and no violence was displayed. A proposition to exclude all persons from a meeting to be held at the school house tonight who were not opposed to the formation of the district as outlined was voted down, as it was deemed unparliamentary, undemocratic, unwise or unlawful to call a public meeting in a public building and then declare who shall be welcomed, and who shall be denied admittance. There is not a single copy of the by-laws in existence. The original deed was granted by Mr. Sichel, who represented the Stearns Rancho, and the cemetery was incorporated in 1866, but the title never left the original owner or his heirs. It was incorporated under the law of 1859 which was very limited in its scope of authority. However a plot of ground becomes a cemetery under the law if there are six graves upon it. The owners therefore have a perfect title, although it is not a record title. The first step necessary, he said, is to petition the supervisors for authority to vacate the streets. A map of the cemetery and the proposed changes must be presented to the board, and the petition should be signed by Henry Kroeger, who is the only living member of the original board of directors. The streets vacated by permission of the supervisors would revert to the association, and the ground could be sold for burial lots. It was perfectly safe, he declared, to go ahead with the proposed work. Short speeches were made by many lot owners present and there was a unanimity in the sentiment expressed. All agreed to remove the curbings or any thing on the lots that was objectionable. Some of them had their graves covered with cement slabs, but they agreed to remove them. Chairman Simpson stated that it would be necessary to level the graves as the entire cemetery would be sodded, and there should be nothing to interfere with the use of a lawn mower. However the headstones and markers would not be disturbed. There would be a five foot pathway touching each lot and the Anaheim Union Water company would grant permission to tap one of its mains, consequently there would be ample water to keep it perpetually green. The mausoleums is caused through exposure, and the system being generally run down. I was away for a month, and had a good time. I was treated like a lord in the hospital and to be honest, very much regretted leaving the place. I am enclosing a photo of myself taken just after leaving the hospital. The photo is a poor one, as all my friends say that they would not recognize me. Please give my kind regards to Mrs. Hudson and the youngster and with all good wishes, Believe me, Yours very sincerely, VICTOR G. LOLY. No. 181176. 29th Bn. Canadian Infantry. A.

Of the volunteers, the ages were as follows: Age of 10 and under ... 25 Age of 12 and under ... 225 Age of 14 and under ... 1,523 Age of 16 and under ... 833,881 Age of 18 and under ... 1,151,488 Age of 21 and under ... 2,159,798 Age of 22 and over ... 618,516 That surely was a boy's war and those of us that are left are "Old Boys" now. Wilson and Conscription begins where Lincoln and Volunteers left off. A. B. MARKLE. Supervisor Wm. Schumacher was a visitor in town Saturday and later attended a special meeting of the board of supervisors at Santa Ana. The story that members of the board of trade committee had grafted or accepted bribes for permitting the Stanton property owners to withdraw from the proposed district was without foundation. It was a misunderstanding on the part of the people who circulated it. These property owners communicated with the committee and stated that they were willing to pay a reaosnable amount toward the protection work but they objected to being included within the district. Subcommittees were sent out to Stanton to make a proposal to them. Clarence McFadden and Ben Yorba went to the city of Stanton and O. E. Steward and A. A. Mills to the people owning land in the proposed district outside the city limits. They notified these property owners that if they would deposit in the bank $2 per acre of their holdings no objection would be made to their protesting out of the district. The proposition originated with the property owners who were willing to help build the dike, but objected to being within the boundary lines of the district. Another meeting will be held at Loara school house tonight. Injunction proceedings will be brought in superior court to stop proceedings. It will delay the matter and may possibly defeat it again.

TEN GROWN SISTERS IN FAMILY GROUP Mrs. Frank Machleb Receives Remarkable Photograph From Canada Mrs. Frank Machleb has just received a photograph of the ten daughters of her brother, J. Lindsay, of Woodstock, Canada. They range in age from eighteen to forty years, several of them being married and having children of their own. They are all remarkably pretty, the resemblance to each other being very marked. There are seventeen members of the Lindsay family, the father, mother, five sons and ten daughters and there has never been a death in the family. The eighteen-year-old daughter is the youngest of the family. Mr. and Mrs. Machleb visited the Lindsays twelve years ago, and were given a picture of the family group. The baby at that time was six years of age, but she has developed into a full grown woman, and is now larger than a number of her sisters.

SANTA ANAN DROWNED A selective draft registration card was the means of identifying a body found in a pool of water at Oceanside. The body is that of G. F. Delgado, and the card indicates that he was a resident of Santa Ana. City Marshal Jernigan was informed of the finding of the body by the constable at Oceanside, who requested that officers make an attempt to locate the man's relatives. There are no particulars as to how the young man came to be drowned. It is understood there are no marks on the body that would indicate that the man had met with foul play. Delgado registered in Santa Ana. His card should show his street number. The constable failed to state the number if it was found on the card. Mrs. Susan Kellog of Goodland, Kansas was visiting friends in this city Sunday afternoon. Harry Ter Beest of Norwalk has moved to Anaheim and will make his home here. He will be a welcome addition to the Anaheim band, as he is an accomplished musician. He is a brother of Ben Ter Beest, who toots a cornet in the band. Henry W. Baxter left Thursday to join the army hospital corps at San Francisco. His father, Thomas B. Baxter was a civil war veteran.
