ANAHEIM MAN IS CHARGED WITH BLACKMAIL.
F. GRANT WHITE ACCUSED OF ATTEMPTING TO EXTORT MONEY FROM MRS. STRODTHOFF
ARRAIGNED BEFORE U. S. COMMISSIONER AND SENT TO JAIL UNDER BOND OF $2000
Charged with representing himself to be a Federal officer, and also with attempting to extort money from Mrs. Johanna Strodthoff, Fred Grand White of this city was placed under arrest at the Hotel Alexandria in Los Angeles Friday evening. He was arraigned before United States Commissioner D. M. Hammack, who placed his ball at $2000, and sent him to the Federal department of the county jail. On Monday he was examined before Commissioner Hammack, and an attempt was made by himself and friends to have the ball reduced but
MELROSE RESIGNS AS SECRETARY OF BOARD
George Gobar Recommended For Position In His Place
Richard Melrose of this city has resigned as a member of the exemption board of Orange County District No. 2, and Superior Judge West, chairman of the County Council of Defense, has recommended that Governor Stephens appoint Attorney George Gobar of Fullerton to take his place.
Mr. Melrose has been secretary of the board of District No. 2 since its organization. He was seriously ill some weeks ago at which time he sent in his resignation but it has not yet been accepted. He returned to work after recovering.
Gobar has been chief clerk of District No. 2 board since the draft work began. He is thoroughly familiar with the work. In fact, he is regarded as an expert upon the draft rules and regulations.
As yet, Governor Stephens has not acted upon the resignation nor upon the recommendation of Judge West. Probably action will be taken within a week.
LOS ANGELES WHOLESALEERS SWINDLE THE FISHERMEN
Dealers Pay Too Little and Take Too
attempting to extort money from Mrs. Johanna Strodthoff, Fred Grand White of this city was placed under arrest at the Hotel Alexandria in Los Angeles Friday evening. He was arraigned before United States Commissioner D. M. Hammack, who placed his ball at $2000, and sent him to the Federal department of the county jail. On Monday he was examined before Commissioner Hammack, and an attempt was made by himself and friends to have the ball reduced, but this request was refused and the prisoner was remanded to jail to await the action of the grand jury.
Details of the affair cannot be obtained, as Mrs. Strodthoff and her sons are reticent and decline to give out information for publication before the trial. White, on first being arraigned, denied all charges, declaring that he had never called on Mrs. Strodthoff, but it is stated that he did call upon her on more than one occasion. It is reported that he represented himself to Mrs. Strodthoff as a Federal agent and accused her of making a false statement relative to her income. He told her, however, so it is reported, that if she would pay him $2000 he would square the matter and see that no proceedings were taken against her. Naturally Mrs. Strodthoff refused to be held up. She reported the affair to her son, and steps were taken which resulted in White's arrest.
Mr. White came to Anaheim nearly a year ago and purchased a 20-acre ranch on Placentia avenue. He announced that he had been an attorney in Chicago and occupied a prominent position in the legal world of that city. He never explained why he gave up a lucrative law practice and took up the profession of growing oranges. It is said he was an intimate friend of United States Senator William Lorimer, and was active in the campaign which sent that gentleman to the seate, from which he was ousted shortly afterward on the ground that he had purchased his seat.
White is a versatile talker and a good mixer. Soon after coming here he began taking a prominent part in civic affairs, and was frequently called upon to speak at public meetings. He was one of the four-minute men appointed to speak on various occasions at the theatres in the interest of the Liberty Loan campaign. Although not a member of the Liberty Loan committee he took an active part in with the work. In fact, he is regarded as an expert upon the draft rules and regulations.
As yet, Governor Stephens has not acted upon the resignation nor upon the recommendation of Judge West. Probably action will be taken within a week.
LOS ANGELES WHOLESAILERS SWINDLE THE FISHERMEN
Dealers Pay Too Little and Take Too Much, is Complaint
That there is something rotten in other places besides Denmark says the Newport News, is evidenced by the fact that the greedy glutons of Los Angeles to whom the local fishermen are compelled to sell their fish will pay them only 4 cents a pound, while the same fish are being retailled at 13½ cents a pound, making a difference in price between the man who catches the fish and the consumer of 9 and one-half cents per pound. Jesse James was an angel when compared with these highwaymen who rob the unorganized fishermen with brazen and unconcealed immunity.
In San Pedro the canneries are only offering one cent per pound for sardines and when this same proudct is placed on the shelves of the retailer, the ultimate consumer pays twenty-eight cents per pound. Hogs are hogs, but for climbing in the trough lengthwise and rooting the little fellow out, these two legged swine have got our four footed bacon producers beat a mile. Here is a job for Food Controller Herbert Hoover to take up and compel these veggs to pay a fair price to the fishermen.
PHILIP MONTEZ ATTEMPTS TO DRAW GUN ON OFFICER
Believed to be Bad Hombre, and Wanted on Serious Charge—Recently Returned From Mexico
Philip Montez, a Mexican, arrived in town Friday afternoon and while in the Belmont made himself obnoxious, and during his stay there a pistol fell out of his pocket. After picking up the weapon he acted in a threatening manner and the police were notified, and Officer Germann responded. As the officer entered the place Montez started to the rear door, when Germann called him to stop. Montez wheeled around and as he did so put his hand to his hip pocket. Germann

He was one of the four-minute men appointed to speak on various occasions at the theatres in the interest of the Liberty Loan campaign. Although not a member of the Liberty Loan committee he took an active part in the drive for the sale of bonds.
Mrs. Strodthoff is one of Anaheim's oldest and most respected citizens. She is one of the pioneers of the city, and was considerably unnerved by the charge that she was under suspicion by the government.
BALL WAS A SUCCESS
The Hallowe'en ball given in the pavilion under the auspices of the Seal Beach chamber of commerce, was a conspicuous success in every respect.
The decorations, which were typical and distinctive in character were very elaborate, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago having been drawn upon to supply them.
Attendance was very large, delegations coming from Los Angeles, Pasadena, Long Beach, San Pedro and from all parts of Orange county. During the evening a telegram of congratulation was received from Frank Burt, president of the chamber of commerce, who is in New York on business.
The whole affair, including the decorations, was managed by Otto L. Little. The chamber of commerce will stage similar entertainments and events from time to time during the winter, demonstrating the "open all the year" slogan of this popular seaside resort.
Philip Montez, a Mexican, arrived in town Friday afternoon and while in the Belmont made himself obnoxious, and during his stay there a pistol fell out of his pocket. After pickling up the weapon he acted in a threatening manner and the police were notified, and Officer Germann responded. As the officer entered the place Montez started to the rear door, when Germann called him to stop. Montez wheeled around and as he did so put his hand to his hip pocket. Germann was watching him closely and the officer quickly drew his gun and told Montez to hold up his hands. Advancing towards the Mexican, Germann disarmed him and took him to jail. Several letters were found upon his person, one of which had been written by a friend of his, dated at San Fernando, saying that a woman there was going to have him sent to prison for an alleged statutory offense.
Montez said he had recently returned from Tia Juana. The officers are of the opinion that he is wanted for some crime here and later made his escape into Mexico, and was beating his way back into this country. According to the police this is the first time Montez showed up in this city. He appears to be a bad hombre, and the local officers prosecuted him under the charge of carrying a concealed weapon. He was sent to the county jail for 90 days.
This is the first time in several years that Officer Germann felt impelled to draw his gun when making an arrest, and in this case would not have done so, only when he saw the Mexican reach for his artillery, the officer felt like using safety first tactics, and was taking no chances.
Drunken Mexicans are treacherous, and many officers, when arresting them, when they act suspiciously, shoot first and ask questions afterward.

CONGRATULATES US ON SPLENDID SHOWING
SUPERIOR JUDGE W. H. THOMAS HANDS ANAHEIM A DESERVED BOUQUET
LIBERTY LOAN FIGURES IN MOTHER COLONY GAVE HIM PALPITATION OF HEART
Superior Judge W. H. Thomas, after reading the result of the Liberty Loan drive in Anaheim, took his pen in hand and wrote the following congratulatory letter to the Gazette. Like many others the judge, no doubt, because this city is largely populated by German-born people or descendants of natives of the Kaiser’s empire, expected us to lag behind in furnishing the sinews to fight Imperial Germany, and when he learned that we had responded more generously to the appeal than any town in Southern California, he couldn’t restrain his enthusiasm, but had to give vent to his feelings by cooperation with Prof. Malcolm, as evidenced by the fact that these students were permitted to come over to Santa Ana in a body. With that kind of leadership our nation is not in any immediate danger of decay. Indeed the foundations are being laid much better than they appreciate now. Long may that disposition continue.
Assuring you and the citizens of Anaheim through you, of my personal appreciation of the magnificent service rendered to this government, as indicated above, I am
Very cordially your humble servant, W. H. THOMAS.
STATE UNDERTAKES MINERAL SURVEY OF SOUTHLAND
Mining Bureau Will Tabulate Varied Resources for War Administration
As a part of a nation wide movement to bring the mining industry into close touch with the national war administration, a survey of Southern California is now being conducted by the California state mining bureau under the direction of State Mineralogist Fletcher Hamilton.
W. E. Taylor, secretary, and E. S. Bollish, mining engineer of the bureau are making a tour of the Southern mining districts, seeking to come in contact with recent developments at first hand.
CHARITY JUBILEE NETS BIG SUM OF MONEY
ELKS’ CHRISTMAS FUND IS INCREASED ELEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS BY CARNIVAL
MORE THAN TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE VISIT GROUNDS AND HELP THE CAUSE
Hundreds of youngsters, ranging in age from four to four score years enjoyed the entertainment provided by the Anaheim Elks last week, and hundreds of others will be made happy during the Yuletide season when the money accumulated through this charity jubilee is expended and the produce it purchases is distributed among the needy. As a money maker the carnival was a success. People of esthetic taste report that they found nothing to their liking, but as there were twenty stunts of diversified character, almost anybody should have been able to see something to applaud.

We might also call the judge’s attention to the fact that this city has already sent seventy young men to the army and navy to fight for the Star Spangled Banner, and that a large percentage of them are of this same German blood he speaks of. Anaheim is on the map of the United States. Judge Thomas’ letter follows:
Santa Ana Calif., October 31, 1917.
Editor Gazette:—
You know when I read in the Monday morning’s papers the result of the splendid work which had been done in Anaheim in behalf of the Second Liberty Loan, it just made by heart beat a little bit stronger and the blood to course through my veins a little bit faster, to know that old Anaheim, the Mother Colony of Southern California, settled in 1857 by a company composed entirely of Germans, and even now with a population composed largely of that splendid people and their descendants, had subscribed $408,200 to this Second Liberty Loan, more than doubling the minimum allotment. That’s an ultimatum to the Kaiser that will stagger him, and not only that, but it will eventually put him out of business. I know I will not be misunderstood in this matter, if for no other reason than that I myself am a naturalized American citizen, and so in making this statement it is with the most profound fellow-feeling.
When I came to this country, although I could read, write and speak, I could not read, write or speak the English language. Here I have acquired such education as is mine; here I met my wife and have raised my family; whatever accumulations I have, have been accumulated here, and so all along the line. Had I remained in my native country, the opportunities that have been mine under the Stars and Stripes would never have come to me. I feel that my experience ment to bring the mining industry into close touch with the national war administration, a survey of Southern California is now being conducted by the California state mining bureau under the direction of State Mineralogist Fletcher Hamilton.
W. E. Taylor, secretary, and E. S. Bollish, mining engineer of the bureau are making a tour of the Southern mining districts, seeking to come in contact with recent developments at first hand. The date they gather will be included in a bulletin on war minerals of California which will be distributed to all interested parties.
By way of emphasizing the importance of this survey, the mining bureau has called attention to the fact that the mineral resources of Los Angeles, Orange and neighboring counties were drawn on during 1916 to the extent of $22,809,461, or 18 per cent of the total production of the state was $127,901,610.
Orange county, because of its highly productive oil fields, stood third among the counties of the state in mineral production, being exceeded only by Kern and Shasta counties. San Bernardino was fifth and Los Angeles was eighth.
During 1916 Los Angeles county produced nearly 3,000,000 barrels of petroleum, crushed rock and miscellaneous stone, to the value of $971.153, and brick valued at $760,912, together with other minerals making a grand total of $4,463,045. Totals for other Southern California counties were: Imperial, $105,333; Orange, $8905,086; Riverside, $1,234,252; San Bernardino, $6,569,147; San Diego, $397,168; Ventura, $1,135,430.
San Bernardino’s total represented an increase of approximately $4,000-000 over 1915, due mainly to the extraordinary activities and high prices relative to tungsten and copper mining.
The mining bureau is anxious to get all the information it can as to present conditions so as to stimulate, if necessary, the production of rare minerals, the importance of f which may not be thoroughly understood, and to straighten out any unsatisfactory trade relations that may exist.
Mr. Hamilton has invited both producers and consumers to communicate with him on any subjects which they think may be of interest to the state and nation. The cooperation of every agency is needed, he says.
Mr. Hamilton has also asked that dredges of others will be made happy during the Yuletide season when the money accumulated through this charity jubilee is expended and the produce it purchases is distributed among the needy. As a money maker the carnival was a success. People of esthetic taste report that they found nothing to their liking, but as there were twenty stunts of diversified character, almost anybody should have been able to see something to applaud. At any rate ninety per cent of the people who patronized the carnival did so because they were helping swell the charity fund, and they didn’t care a continental what was given them in return for their money.
The carnival was an immense success from the fact that the main point had been achieved. When the items had been checked up it was found that the charity fund of the Elks lodge was ahead something over a thousand dollars, and this sum will all be spent at Christmas time to help those who are in need of assistance. Thousands of people attended the carnival during the five nights it was here, many of them coming from other neighborhoods, but we don’t believe that any person who spent his small change within the gates of that carnival is going to deprive himself of the necessities of life because he contributed to the worthy cause.
Among the attractions were the Newlyweds, the pair of dwarfs, who had exhibited in Anahelm a year ago, and were glad to return because it was considered the best show town on the coast. Next to them was the dog and pony show, the trained animals being especially attractive to children. Then came the Hawaiian singers and dancers. The spectacle of young ladies attired only in a short skirt of straw, was rather shocking to the elderly ladies of puritanical disposition who did not realize that the girls were merely giving an exhibition of the chief amusement of their native land. There was also the monkey and dog hotel, the climax of this show being an inebriated monk who was run in by a simian policeman. The sideshow contained a number of monstrosities, one of them being a mermaid, who according to the authentic record made public by her owners, was half fish and half woman. However to the spectators she looked like an Egyptian lady who had been mummified in the days of Pharaoh, and dug up four thousand years later.
When I came to this country, although I could read, write and speak, I could not read, write or speak the English language. Here I have acquired such education as is mine; here I met my wife and have raised my family; whatever accumulations I have, have been accumulated here, and so all along the line. Had I remained in my native country, the opportunities that have been mine under the Stars and Stripes would never have come to me. I feel that my experience is the experience of hundreds of thousands of others. When I came here there was not a drop of blood in me that was not foreign, but under the microscope of God Almighty, at the present time not a drop can be found that is not all United States of America. I am willing to support the flag not only at home but abroad. I will carry it to the capitol of my native country should occasion require it. I have no sympathy with that infinitesimal portion of the population which says that we will fight providing the enemy comes here, but we ought not to take our men across the waters to fight.
Another thing that made me feel mighty good Monday was the fact that there was in attendance from the Civics class of your high school approximately 75 students with their teacher, Prof. Malcolm, and they attended the entire ceremonies making up the examination by applicants for citizenship. In my judgment that is constructive work of the highest character. Upon the shoulders of these young men and women will be the responsibility of this great government in the very near future. The foundation for that responsibility cannot be too well laid. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Malcolm and those associated with him for this interest in the very practical affairs of our government, and to the board for its present conditions so as to stimulate if necessary, the production of rare minerals, the importance o f which may not be thoroughly understood, and to straighten out any unsatisfactory trade relations that may exist. Mr. Hamilton has invited both producers and consumers to communicate with him on any subjects which they think may be of interest to the state and nation. The cooperation of every agency is needed, he says.
Mr. Hamilton has also asked that the mining public take a broad view of minor sacrifices of time and money they may be called upon to make for the public good. The bureau, he has announced, at not time desires to mediate in trade secrets or in matters that may naturally be classed as personal or private. Only broad general facts concerning the many branches of the industry are desired.
The mining industry, the bureau declares, is in a decidedly prosperous condition throughout the United States. The prices commanded by mineral substances at this time in most instances more than offset the high cost of materials and labor difficulties.
The branch office of the bureau at 520 Union League Building, established in 1914, is kept busy as the headquarters of the regular field assistants working in Southern California and is giving out general mining information to the public.
Senator J. N. Anderson, inheritance tax appraiser, has filed a report showing $9623.70 to be due from the three heirs of the estate of Mrs. Bain. The estate is valued at $353,236.25. Ferdinand Bain, her husband, was queathed $20,000, upon which the tax is $100; Beatrice M. Gantz, a daughter, $173,694.61, with a tax of $7808.64; Erastus T. Tefft, a son, $76,264.46, the tax on which is $1715.06.
There was also the monkey and dog hotel, the climax of this show being an inebriated monk who was run in by a simian policeman. The sideshow contained a number of monstrosities, one of them being a mermaid, who, according to the authentic record made public by her owners, was half fish and half woman. However to the spectators she looked like an Egyptian lady who had been mumfled in the days of Pharoah, and dug up four thousand years later.
But the chief money-making stunt within the grounds was the Elks country store, which was managed by a band of highwaymen, all wearing the purple and white, who caught you coming in and going out. All sales in this store were made through a wheel of fortune, a basket of provisions being given out at every turn of the wheel. Trading with these enterprising clerks was easy. All the customer had to do was to deposit his dime and watch some other fellow carry off the basket. This netted the lodge more than $400. The gate receipts were in the neighborhood of $500, as 12,000 people visited the grounds. This fund was split 50-50 with Foley & Burk. A certain per cent of the receipts at each of the concessions was paid to the lodge, an Elk being placed at each entrance to take the tickets. All the Elks contributed their services and spent money freely and when the auditing committee footed up it was found that the lodge was nearly eleven hundred dollars to the good.

A meeting of the directors of the
Associated Beet Growers of Southern
California, with the large land holders of the beet sections, was held
on Monday afternoon in the Alexandria hotel in Los Angeles. At the
meeting were Fred Bixby of the
Bixby ranch, and H. H. Cotton of
the Dominguez estate, representing
large acreage of sugar beets. President Peck was invited to attend
the meeting and did so, this being
the first official recognition of the
association by any factory, except
that at Los Alamitos, which has been
friendly to the association since its inception.
After considerable discussion with
regard to the beet prices and sugar
prices, the Anaheim sugar man stated
he would do his best to secure a minimum price of $7 a ton for beets, and
that contracts should be drawn accordingly.
A committee was appointed by the
beet growers to attend the drawing
of the contract, a like committee to
be sent from the mill.
Local members of the association
look upon this move as the most favorable yet made toward the association. It does away with the necessity

he would do his best to secure a minimum price of $7 a ton for beets, and that contracts should be drawn accordingly.
A committee was appointed by the beet growers to attend the drawing of the contract, a like committee to be sent from the mill.
Local members of the association look upon this move as the most favorable yet made toward the association. It does away with the necessity of attempting to handle Anaheim beets with their own funds, and represents a far more constructive policy on the part of the companies, they say, than they have yet met with.
Unless the beet sugar manufacturers of Southern California agree to pay a higher price for sugar beets than offered at present, the government will be asked to place a government inspector in all factories in the Southland in order that the growers may know that their beets have been given the proper analysis in the percentage of sugar contained in each load sold to the factory.
Such was the sense of a meeting of the Associated Beet Growers of Southern California held Monday afternoon at the Hotel Alexandria.
It was announced that the factories are offering $7 per ton for the 15 per cent of sugar in the beets and 47 cents for each additional 1 per cent of sugar. The growers demand that 50 cents additional should be paid them instead of 47 cents.
William Webster, general manager of the association stated that all the association wanted was a conference with factory owners, but that thefactory owners thus far had refused to recognize them.
Failing to get an equable agreement with the factories, the association proposes to establish its own plant, it was announced by Mr. Webster. Alex Jeffrey of Zelzah is president of the association, which has 350 members, representing 600 growers who are farming approximately 50,000 acres of land.
A meeting was held at Santa Ana Friday for the purpose of starting the campaign for the collection of funds, at which time it was decided to cooperate with Los Angeles. Committeemen from each section of the county were named for the work, and the campaign is now on.

George W. Minter, chairman.
Mrs. J. D. Wilson, vice-chairman.
J. C. Metzgar, secretary.

DOLL BABY PARADE AN ATTRACTIVE FEATURE
Vast Crowd Cheers Little Tots as They March to Carnival Grounds
One of the chief attractions introduced by the Elks during their week of jubilee was the procession of little girls wheeling doll baby carriages. Headed by the steam callope the procession formed on Emily street in front of the Masonic Temple, and guarded by a number of Elks, the little folks finally reached the carnival ground and were lined up for inspection. It had been previously announced that three prizes would be given for the best decorated carriages or best costumed little girls.
The judges were Mrs. H. M. Adams, Mrs. H. G. Ames and Miss Sophie Rimpau, and the ladies found the task of choosing between them a difficult one. They finally awarded the first prize, a beautiful doll, to Rose Meyers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Meyers of the Palm Cafe, the second, a doll's chair to Olga Heitsheusen, the third, a teddy-bear to Alma Callor. Several of the children were dressed as Red Cross nurses, and all the costumes were unique. The carriages, also were artistically decorated. Little Miss Meyer’s carriage was trimmed with numerous tiny electric lights. After the prizes were awarded the children were all taken into the dog and pony show.

Nine alleged draft evaders from San Francisco, including four who were followers of Daniel O'Connell, now under sentence for obstructing the draft, were sent Monday from Alcatraz disciplinary arracks for Camp Lewis.
Michael Donlan, Alfred Weusterfield, J. A. Lane, and W. A. Dahlgren are the "O'Connellites" who decided that war was preferable to facing courtmartial for desertion.
