EDISON EMPLOYEES OUT ON A STRIKE Katella Substation Effected for Couple Of Hours Friday Santa Ana Friday experienced her first strike. With 25 union employees of the Southern California Edison company off the job, due to orders from the International headquarters of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. H. B. Green, international organizer gave orders for a compelte walkout on every line and every construction job in Orange county. Work on the sub-station at San Juan Capistrano was stopped and for two and one half hours Thursday the Katella sub station was operated by one man, until seven engineers from the main office in Los Angeles could arrive to personally take charge. "The Edison company is unfair to organized labor, and it will be but a matter of a few days until every man on the job will be a scab, or else the company will recognize the just demand of the electrical workers," said the head of the local union. "In Los Angeles the allied trades are joining with us and it is becoming impossible for the company to make any extensions. It will be but a few days until the operation of the plants without our help will be an impossibility." "The demands of the union are small. With respect to the wages paid in other trades, and the preparation demanded in this one, the salaries have been far below the average paid in skilled labor." LOTS OF TROUT THIS YEAR Reports on the effect of recent rains on the trout conditions gathered by the Fish & Game commission from its deputies in the field indicate the best prospect for anglers that has favored this lower end of the state in several seasons. Thus far the rains have come exactly right, and nowhere has any serious storm scouring been reported. The watersheds are well wet down, and the storm of last week contributed a considerable snow in the heights. The low water of winter, owing to the protracted delay in rains, gave an unusual opportunity to check up on the supply of trout in the streams. It was found quite generally that there is no such scarcity of fish as reported at the end of the first month of the preceding open season. Many trout of 8 to 10 inches in length were to be seen, and a goodly proportion of foot long fish which plainly must have been in the streams-all the time they were thought to be so scarce, hiding beneath ledges and behind rocks, doubtless. Anglers who sought to get their full license dollar's worth by fishing late in the season last fall were unanimous reporting a great showing of the summer's fry, innumerable tiny trout of the fingerling size. These are the ones which will make the coming season's sport. By the irony of fate that governs such things, the present season with its late rains bids fair to prove one in which the old law, deferring the opening of fishing until May first, would have been all right for the up-coast streams; but in this year of late rain, the new law opening up the counties of Ventura, Santa Barbara and on, to April fishing is to become effective. going to the countryside upon his nails were dressed. Matt Richards bit him, and it as his opinion wound on Manatt's bite. After the stop on other machines can men who had been Richards and Manatt ing the crap game started. U. L.

Manatt had a Lodge present, with the ppt that out of the heation against Richard Ricahrds was repeney Williams of torney Coburn of to the testimony, the pavement, w aptly described as between Orange and fight up and do every body resorting weapons at hand. "In the old days Attorney Williams fight was frequent thought of having Now days, the most worst of it general fellow arrested." The defense to Richards was not Manatt had scheer into a fracas for being him, and that ards was badly bled Richards said had been made to game in a room known store at Returning from "In Los Angeles the allied trades are joining with us and it is becoming impossible for the company to make any extensions. It will be but a few days until the operation of the plants without our help will be an impossibility. "The demands of the union are small. With respect to the wages paid in other trades, and the preparation demanded in this one, the salaries have been far below the average paid for other lines of skilled labor. "At present the union has but few demands. It asks the right to organize in locals, and to negotiate and arbitrate as an organization. This right has been denied us. "In the matter of salaries, men who are receiving from $2.50 to $2.75 per day and supporting their families, demand a twenty per cent increase. The men at the top of the scale, journeymen linemen and inside wiresmen are asking a daily wage of $5.50 instead of $4.50. "The company raised the scale of all $2.50 men to $2.75 at the first of the year, but the union feels that such rise was only for the purpose of averting the strike which every company and union man knew was due to come. Those of us who received more wages are not content to see the other fellow trying to exist on the wage he formerly received." "No violence" is the rule with the electrical workers, and in this strike it is pleasing to note that there has been no conflict in any other city where the strikes have been called." During the past few weeks a steady campaign of organization has been carried on, with the result that very few men were in the Edison employ who did not carry cards. Some were members of the I. A. T. S. E. and other unions, and these men are striking with the electrical men. Of the men who are now at work, a very few were formerly union men, whose cards are now automatically cancelled by working on a job that is tabooed by the international. W. L. Deimling, head of the Santa Ana office, stated Friday that as far as a strike was concerned, he did not know one was in existence in Santa Ana. He stated that two or three men had shown their cards that morning and did not go to work, but that he was not aware that any order had been given. He said that San Juan Capistrano and Katella were not in his jurisdiction, and that he had nothing to do with those cases. He admitted that 25 PER CENT SHORT G. F. Warren, professor of farm management at Cornell university, testifying before the Senate Agricultural committee, investigating general food conditions, declared food production in the United States this year from present indications, would be less than three fourths of normal. Senator Wadsworth questioned a statement by Hank Reid of Chicago, editor of a/sheep raisers' paper, that retail meat dealers who purchase direct from producers were boycotted by the packers. Reid declared that at the present price of meat to the producers, many engaged in meat production would send their supplies to market and then quit business. An over abundance of meat will be in the market in the next few weeks, Reid said, but indications are soon that there will be a shortage. PARTICULARS OF SCRAP TOLD IN JUSTICE COURT John F.

He said that San Juan Capistrano and Katella were not in his jurisdiction, and that he had nothing to do with those cases. He admitted that operators had gone out from the Katella substation, but said he knew nothing about the condition at San Juan. Manager Deimling stated Saturday that the vacancies had been filled and all work was progressing as usual. HOW TO PAY YOUR INCOME TAX Pay your income tax, if possible, by check, money order or draft. This is the urgent request of the bureau of Internal Revenue. More than six million persons this year will pay an income tax. The total to be collected under the war revenue act of October 3, 1917, in individual income taxes alone is $666,000,000. The vast majority of these payments will be small amounts. If paid as requested it will avoid the necessity for the issuance of a receipt, and save much time and labor. Taxes paid to deputies who are visiting every county in the United States to assist taxpayers in making out their returns are sent to the collector of internal revenue of the districts in which the taxes are collected. Checks, money orders, or drafts can be handled without difficulty. Cash has to be sent by registered mail or by insured express. In the conduct of the war Uncle Sam is beset with many difficulties. You can render one of his innumerable tasks less difficult by paying your income tax promptly, and by check, money order, or draft. PARTICULARS OF SCRAP TOLD IN JUSTICE COURT John F. Richards Bound Over, but Declares Other Man Began the Flight Teeth, a beer bottle, a rock, to say nothing of fists and feet, were used in a rough and tumble fight that occurred on the pavement near the county hospital at 1 o'clock in the morning several weeks ago. This fight was depicted in all of its stages at a preliminary hearing held Friday afternoon, which hearing ended with the order of Justice Cox that John F. Richards, well to do rancher of Orange, be held to answer for trial in the superior court, on a charge of mayhem brought by H. E. Manatt, formerly a North Main street barber of Santa Ana but now of Orange. It has been many a long day since any man in Justice Cox's court received the equal of the dressing down administered to Manatt by Attorney R. Y. Williams. Richards testified that Manatt during the fight had tried to remove a diamond ring, worth $1000 or $2000, from Richard's finger. Two other witnesses, boys under 21 years of age, testified that Manatt and two girls who were with him went with them to Anaheim, brought out wine and whiskey and gave it to them and the girls. Manatt testified that he, Richards and T. C. Gessner were returning from Anaheim late at night, about 1 o'clock, when they stopped the machine, and went out upon the pavement, and by the light of auto proceeded to shake dice in a merry game of craps. Manatt said that Richards was the offender in the dispute and fight. That fight ended with Manatt Since it has Roscoe Arbuckle dio site, practice size in Southern confronting his says the Motion Santa Ana start nationally attracting it leads the flame definite and concludes will erect a stupefy be used solely by Corporation, or Schenck is present buckle vice pre-engineers are for the Santa Merce, and will buckle this weekness men from Arbuckle is local who hope to get lands, Riverside also in the race to prove to the buckle exactly a permanent mark Although Jacks far away to see their usual pre-wires wary and have made Arbuckle is a city, consequent his studio be going to the county hospital, where wounds upon his nose, arm and hand were dressed. Manatt testified that Richards bit him, and Dr. Zaiser gave it as his opinion that the severe wound on Manatt's nose was due to a bite. After the stop on the pavement, two other machines came up, and several men who had been at Anaheim with Richards and Manatt were out watching the crap game when the trouble started. U. L. Judd was one of the witnesses called by Deputy District Attorney Menton. Manatt had a Los Angeles attorney present, with the probable expectation that out of the hearing a damage action against Richards might be grown. Ricahrds was represented by Attorney Williams of Santa Ana and Attorney Coburn of Orange. According to the testimony, the fight out upon the pavement, which Justice Cox aptly described as the No Man's Land between Orange and Anaheim, was a fight up and down the line, with every body resorting to all available weapons at hand. "In the old days in California," said Attorney Williams, "that kind of a fight was frequent, and no one ever thought of having anybody arrested. Now days, the man who gets the worst of it generally has the other fellow arrested." The defense took the view that Richards was not the aggressor, that Manatt had schemed to get Richards into a fracas for the purpose of robbing him, and that in the fracas Richards was badly beaten up. Richards said that an attempt had been made to get him into a card game in a room at the rear of a well known store at Orange. He refused. Returning from Anaheim the crap ORANGE COUNTY NOTES Wants 50 Cent Gas Rate: Mayor A. J. Visel is out with a statement declaring he believes that Santa Ana ought to have a rate of 50 cents for natural gas supplied to it by the Southern Counties Gas Company. Preparations are being made by city authorities for a presentation of the claims of the city for a low gas rate. This presentation is to be made to the railroad commission as a part of the evidence in the investigation being conducted at the request of the gas company, which has asked for a revision of rates. Mayor Visel says that the gas company has put a valuation of $100,000 upon an old artificial gas plant in that city that he does not believe is worth that amount, and he says that other figures are inflated. The gas company wants a rate that will allow it a fair rate of interest upon its investment. Bean Warehouse: Plans are afoot that may result in the building of a bean warehouse at Greenville station on the Pacific Electric between Santa Ana and Huntington Beach. Friday night of last week the matter was discussed at a meeting of the Greenville Farm Center. The meeting was held at the home of F. D. Plavan. The growing of beans in the Old Newport district, which is the oldest farming district in Orange county, aside from the Mother Colony, has been growing in popularity for several years. The yield in that section is good, and the prices have been attractive. It is estimated that there will be an increase of thirty or forty opinions that the handwriting on the orders is McKee's. Measles at Fullerton: The measles are causing a lot of disturbance in Fullerton in general and in a great many families in particular. The school attendance has been materially cut down the past month and the end is not yet in sight. At the meeting of the city trustees, last week, Dr. Lang, city health officer, reported the true condition and said of course the only way to stamp the disease out quickly and effectually would be to quarantine the schools, churches, theaters and stores, but would not recommend it, neither would he want to be the health officer if the board ordered anything of the kind. The doctor reported that he had gone so far as to give notice that children would not be allowed to return to school without a certificate from the health officer. Further than that the doctor made no recommendation to the city trustees, and the board made none to the doctor. So there you are. Wants Fumigating Crew: County Horticultural Commissioner Earl Morris expects soon to discuss with the board of supervisors the advisability of organizing a fumigation crew for the purpose of fumigating citrus trees on lots and other small areas inside of cities. "At the present time," said he, "the man who owns a few trees has a hard time getting them fumigated. I recommend fumigation instead of spraying. The man who is running a fumigation outfit cannot afford to bring in his tents to do small jobs without he charges a price that is prohibitive. I hope to be able to work out some plan to help clean up the scale." The defense took the view that Richards was not the aggressor, that Manatt had schemed to get Richards into a fracas for the purpose of robbing him, and that in the fracas Richards was badly beaten up. Richards said that an attempt had been made to get him into a card game in a room at the rear of a well known store at Orange. He refused. Returning from Anaheim the crap game was indulged in. Richards said that when the money was down Manatt tried to take it, and he called Manatt a crook, with the result that he was set upon not only by Manatt but by others. A rock was hurled at Richards, and he was hit with a beer bottle. When he was down on the ground he was kicked. A doctor and a nurse testified as to the extent and severity of the injuries inflicted upon Richards. They said that the finger on which was the diamond ring was swollen and slightly lacerated. Attorneys for Richards put on two witnesses to prove Manatt's character. Everett Melton, aged 18, and Raymond Arguello, 19, both of Orange, testified that they were sitting in a runabout machine when Manatt came along with two girls, strangers to the two boys, and asked them to take them to Anaheim. Manatt went into a saloon and brought out a bottle of port wine, and later a bottle of whiskey, which were passed around to the boys and girls. "I had a purse with $55 in my pocket, and Manatt knew it was there," said Melton. "He sat next to me, while I was driving, coming back from Anaheim, and I missed my purse. I looked all over the machine, and turned around and went back to Anaheim looking for it. Manatt said he wanted to cash a check, and he went into a saloon and came out with money in his hands." Justice Cox ordered that Richards be held to answer on a charge of mayhem, with his bond fixed at $500. WANT FATTY ARBUCKLE Since it has been announced that Roscoe Arbuckle is looking for a studio site, practically every city of any size in Southern California has been confronting his office with offers, says the Motion Picture News of N. Y. Santa Ana started first with an exceptionally attractive offer, and up to date week the matter was discussed at a meeting of the Greenville Farm Center. The meeting was held at the home of F. D. Plavan. The growing of beans in the Old Newport district, which is the oldest farming district in Orange county, aside from the Mother Colony, has been growing in popularity for several years. The yield in that section is good, and the prices have been attractive. It is estimated that there will be an increase of thirty or forty per cent in the acreage this year over last year. Stephen Griset, secretary of the Greenville Farm Center, said that the farmers around Greenville estimate that the output of beans this year will be about 15,000 sacks. Some of the growers belong to other associations. If a bean warehouse is decided upon, a local bean association will be organized. Fullerton Talent: The Fullerton union high school was very much in evidence in the amusement line at Camp Kearny on Saturday evening. The associated student bodies which put on "The Servant in the House" satisfactorily in the auditorium at home Friday evening, presented the play to an audience of over 3000 in Y. M. C. A. building No. 2, and the soldier boys greatly appreciated it. After the performance they gave six rousing cheers for the troup. The cast consisted of Harold Robertson, Arthur Coons, Emma Robinson, Beverly Smith, Homer Bemls, Robert Vance and Louis E. Plummer. Beside the cast, Phillip Goodell, H. D. Campbell and Miss Russell, the dramatic instructor, were in the party. Placentia May Incorporate: The committee appointed by the chamber of commerce at Placentia to take up the matter of incorporation has held two meetings, at which the question was carefully and thoroughly canvassed. The committee, under the resolution by which it was appointed, is authorized to proceed with all the steps necessary to bring the matter to a vote of the people, but agreed that it would be better to submit its findings to the chamber of commerce for approval. President Scott has called a meeting for next Wednesday evening when the report will be presented. The committee does not recommend the taking in of the whole country-side crew for the purpose of fumigating citrus trees on lots and other small areas inside of cities. "At the present time," said he, "the man who owns a few trees has a hard time getting them fumigated. I recommend fumigation instead of spraying. The man who is running a fumigation outfit cannot afford to bring in his tents to do small jobs without he charges a price that is prohibitive. I hope to be able to work out some plan to help clean up the scale. "There is no law to prohibit the selling or peddling of scale infected fruit unless the sale or peddling becomes a menace in any way to trees that are free from scale." Ferocious Cow Did It: Mrs. W. T. Olney of Los Angeles says that a cow attacked her automobile, and the cow and C. F. Spellmeyer together were responsible for the crash that resulted in shattering Spellmeyer's leg. The assertions are made in an answer filed at the courthouse Thursday by attorneys for Mrs. Olney. Spellmeyer, resident engineer for the state highway commission and at the time of the accident a resident of Santa Ana, was returning from El Toro when he was injured. There were some cattle running loose on the state highway. Mrs. Olney swerved to her left and her machine struck Spellmeyer's motorcycle, and threw him. He sued Mrs. Olney and also the Irvine Company, alleging that the company owned the cattle. Suit is for $3728. The answer states that Mrs. Olney was driving along the highway when the automobile "was attacked" by a cow. The animal jumped up on the front of the automobile, and caused the automobile to be shoved over to the left side of the road. Mrs. Olney contends that Spellmeyer had time to see her machine coming, and that he ought to have taken to his left side of the road in order to avoid the collision, and because he did not take to his left he and the cow are jointly responsible for the accident. No Fool Like an Old Fool: "I was a darned old fool to ever marry her," muttered D.C. Newcomb, of Orange, Saturday morning when he was brought into Justice Cox's court to answer to a charge of failure to provide for his 40-year-old bride. "How did you ever happen to marry her?" asked the justice. "I'll be darned if I know," replied WANT FATTY ARBUCKLE Since it has been announced that Roscoe Arbuckle is looking for a studio site, practically every city of any size in Southern California has been confronting his office with offers, says the Motion Picture News of N.Y. Santa Ana started first with an exceptionally attractive offer, and up to date it loads the field because of a more definite and concrete proposition. They will erect a studio to cost $100,000, to be used solely for the Comique Film Corporation, of which Joseph M. Schenck is president and Roscoe Arbuckle vice president. Architects and engineers are working on the plans for the Santa Ana chamber of Commerce, and will be presented to Arbuckle this week. Delegations of business men from Long Beach, where Arbuckle is located from Santa Ana, who hope to get him, and from Redlands, Riverside and Anaheim, who are also in the race, will attempt this week to prove to the satisfaction of Arbuckle exactly why he should take up a permanent residence in their city. Although Jacksonville, Florida, is too far away to send a delegation, with their usual progress they have kept the wires warm with their messages, and have made several alluring offers. Arbuckle is a native of Orange county, consequently it would be fitting his studio be located here. Dr. G. A. Neth General Drugless Practitioner SUITE 4, CASSOU BLDG., ANAHEIM Our treatments are especially advantageous for alliments of the Nerves and pains in the muscles and points. Acute or chronic diseases of the various organs often yield with surprising alacrity to our modalities. Fees reasonable. The committee, under the resolution by which it was appointed, is authorized to proceed with all the steps necessary to bring the matter to a vote of the people, but agreed that it would be better to submit its findings to the chamber of commerce for approval. President Scott has called a meeting for next Wednesday evening when the report will be presented. The committee does not recommend the taking in of the whole country-side but does favor including a reasonably large territory; then the ordinary expenses will not be heavy for anyone, and it will be possible to undertake improvements, should they ever be called for, without burdensome taxes. Under the plan outlined, it is believed that the running expenses of the corporation can be met, including the proper maintenance of street and roads, with very little, if any increase in the tax rate. It is quite probable that for some years come the 40-cent rpad tax which is now paid would run the town in good shape. Wanted for P.O. Burglary: Tuesday afternoon a Federal inspector from Los Angeles said that Harry McKee, in jail on a charge of burglarizing the Farmers' warehouse near Huntington Beach, is the same Harry McKee for whom federal officers have been searching for the last two and a half years for the burglary of a post office at Corcoran. McKee has been living at Redondo. For a time he worked for Urbain Plavan, from whose ranch a team was taken to haul away beans stolen from the warehouse. The postal inspector said that the man who robbed the Corcoran post office got away with three orders, $25, $44 and $5, and that these were afterward cashed. He campared the handwriting with McKee's handwriting at the jail, and it was the Inspector's No Fool Like an Old Fool: "I was a darned old fool to ever marry her," muttered D.C. Newcomb, of Orange, Saturday morning when he was brought into Justice Cox's court to answer to a charge of failure to provide for his 40-year-old bride. "How did you ever happen to marry her?" asked the justice. "I'll be darned if I know," replied the prisoner. "My son told me I was a fool to do it, and that she was only marrying me for what money I had, but I just did it anyway." "Did she tickle you under the chin?" asked Cox. "No, she didn't do that." The story was told by the prisoner, his son, his daughter-in-law and his daughter-in-law's mother. They said that the husband was a persona non grata around his own establishment up until about two weeks before time for his pension to come, and then the wife, they stated, would send him a note telling him everything was forgiven and that she loved him in the same old way. He would come back, they said, and stay until after the check had been turned over to her, and then he would be given a complete new set of walking papers. The couple were married about two years ago. The defendant states that he made over his property to her and that she can put her fingers on a thousand dollars right now if she wants to. He says he gave her his last pension check, the only money he has had. The daughter-in-law stated that Mrs. Newcomb lives with three children by a former husband, and that the former husband is living in the same block, but that he does nothing to take care of his offspring.

SNOWBALL DANCE What the Tournament of Roses is to Pasadena; what the Orange Show is to San Bernardino; what the Mission Play is to San Gabriel, so is the annual Snowball Dance a distinctive Seal Beach feature. For the native sons and daughters of Southern California the Snowball dance will be a revelation; for those who come here from parts where winter is a reality, instead of only a name, it will be like going back to the old home in mid-winter. The Seal Beach Chamber of Commerce has set Tuesday, April 2, as the date for the holding of the Snowball dance this year. Many new and novel features are being added, making this the most realistic winter scene ever produced in decorations. For the scene reproducing an eastern blizzard 78,000 snow flakes are being made by the women of Seal Beach. The air over the heads of the dancers will be filled with flying snow, but the arrangement is such that none of the snow will fall upon the dancers. When the powerful colored rays from a battery of the Seal Beach scintillators is thrown upon this snow scene the effect will be a marvel of beauty. Another distinct novelty will be a "battle of the snowballs" in Sunny Southern California. Snow for the battle is being brought from Chicago. It will be put thru a treating process, making it "unmeltable", so that persons engaged in the battle need have no fear of injuring or dampening their clothing. Thursday Deputy District Attorney Koepsel recorded a county claim, a lien, against the George H. Forster grove at Placentia. Last fall this orchard was fairly alive with scale, and R. K. Bishop, who was then county horticultural commissioner, had the place fumigated under the state law, which allows such work to be done when the owners fail to do it, if ordered to do so by the commissioner. The county's claim for the fumigation is $334.60.
