A POTATO CAMPAIGN
The United States food administration has sent out material authorizing and giving instructions for conducting a potato campaign in every state and county for the purpose of inducing the people to consume the potato surplus.
30,000,000 bushels of potatoes, by estimate of the department of agriculture, will be wasted unless the potato crop now held by farmers is moved immediately. If this 30,000,000 bushels of potatoes can be consumed before June first, it will mean a direct saving of wheat and other foods which we desire to save for export.
The reason for a potato campaign is that food bins are heaped with potatoes as the answer of the farmer to last year's appeal for the bumper war crops. The potatoes grown through patriotism, should be eaten through patriotism. To eat potatoes is the best kind of local patriotism.
The story is told of a cook in a boarding school who served boiled potatoes for six days in succession. Then the housekeeper delivered an ultimatum. "There are 49 ways of serving potatoes," she declared, "and I don't want to see boiled potatoes on the table again until you have exhausted the other forty-eight ways."
And there is a sequel to that story. For now more than one hundred ways of serving potatoes have been devised, according to Bulletin No. 468 of the United States department of agriculture.
Eat potatoes and save wheat.
Wheat is needed in the front line trench "over there." Let potatoes serve as the home guard "over here."
Certificate of election from E. B. Merritt National Insurance as surety in the same was accepted.
Bids for the new sewer farm were received. The bids provide tank according to C. McNeal of San Jorge J. P. Hunter, $45,000 Orange County Construction Co., $50,000 Wells-Bressler Co.
It was moved by Backs, that no one will be re-completion, as the city by the superior court same remedied with the recent trial the sewer farm to be audited that the trust granted 100 days t.

NEW BOARD TAKE CONTROL OF CITY AFFAIRS
TRUSTEES ARE DETERMINED TO GIVE TAXPAYERS AN ECONOMICAL GOVERNMENT
DRASTIC ORDINANCE FOR REGULATION OF LIQUOR TRAFIC TO BE PASSED
When the new board of city trustees met Thursday night the S. R. O. sign was hung out. Many citizens came to see how the municipal wheels were made to go round, some came out of curiosity, while many were friends of those who had in applications for city positions. It was the consensus of opinion that the new board is wide awake and the city's affairs are in good hands. Economy seemed to be the watchword, and the taxpayers may rest assured there will be no extravagant expenditure of finances.
The council elected a new city marshal which will mean an entire new police force. The office of street super-accruing from the city is smell, outside of waste paper, and the board will devise some means of diverting this into cash and giving the same to the Red Cross.
H. L. Leavitt of Los Angeles addressed a communication, relative to putting on a Fourth of July celebration here, he to furnish everything in the way of amusements and fireworks, and donate fifty per cent to the city. The same was received and filed.
Permission was granted to the May Day festival committee to fence off one block on West Center street, in front of the high school, between Ohio and Citron streets where services will be held during the day and evening.
Mr. Edmiston, representing the Chautauqua committee addressed the board, asking that permission be given them to use the vacant lot on West Center street, and erect a tent there-on. He also asked that the license fee be revoked, and that free electric juice be furnished. The requests of Mr. Edmiston were all granted, except that in reference to the license. The city cannot revoke a license for this purpose, and a charge must be made, but the city may return the license, under the heading of a donation for meritorious amusements. A number of citizens have agreed to guarantee the Chautauqua $1800 for their entertainments in this city for one week, and in view of this the trustees will assist in all ways possible,
MAYDAY PAGEANT UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITNESS BEAUTIFUL HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE YESTERDAY AFTERNOON
WAR SAVINGS STAMP CAMPAIGN IS GIVEN WONDERFUL IMPULSE BY SPECTACLE
Complete arrangements for the May Day street parade, which perfaced the spectacular pageant on the high school grounds yesterday afternoon, were not announced until Monday, but they were in line with statements previously made in this paper.
The parade started at 1 o'clock, the place of beginning being the corner of Broadway and Los Angeles streets. City Marshal A. W. Wood was in the lead, followed by the city trustees and all officials of the city in decorated autos, the Anaheim band coming next. Then came the various schools, the secret orders, civic bodies, etc., with
were made to go round, some came out of curiosity, while many were friends of those who had in applications for city positions. It was the consensus of opinion that the new board is wide awake and the city's affairs are in good hands. Economy seemed to be the watchword, and the taxpayers may rest assured there will be no extravagant expenditure of finances.
The council elected a new city marshal which will mean an entire new police force. The office of street superintendent was combined with that of city engineer, and the board has under consideration a plan to allow one of the banks to do the water and light collecting, provided a saving in salary may be made. A drastic ordinance is to be passed at once regulating the selling of liquor, and judging from the remarks of some of the new trustees the provisions of the ordinance are going to be enforced. There is no question about that. The new council have a clear track, with no buckle in the roadway, and that they will conduct the municipal affairs in a fearless and conscientious manner admits of no doubt.
There were present Mayor Dwyer, and Trustees Stark, Backs, McFadden and Gibbs. Attorney Ames was present.
President Dwyer announced the appointments of the following committees:
Finance—Gibbs, Backs, Stark.
Ordinance—Stark, McFadden, and Gibbs.
Light and Water—Backs, McFadden Gibbs.
Public Improvements—McFadden, Backs, Gibbs.
Trustee Gibbs of the finance committee reported auditing bills against the city in the amount of $4760.02, for which warrants were ordered drawn.
Engineer Steward reported that deeds had been received from all the property owners, affected by opening up of West Cypress street, except Mrs. Sawdey, owing to the lady's absence from the city, but that he was advised Mrs. Sawdey would execute the deed upon her return. The new street will extend from Palm to Citron street.
Certificate of election was received from E. B. Merritt as city clerk, with National Insurance Co. of New York, as surety in the sum of $2500. The same was accepted and ordered filed.
Bids for the new Imhoff tank at the sewer farm were received as follows.
The requests of Mr. Edmiston were all granted, except that in reference to the license. The city cannot revoke a license for this purpose, and a charge must be made, but the city may return the license, under the heading of a donation for meritorious amusements. A number of citizens have agreed to guarantee the Chautauqua $1800 for their entertainments in this city for one week, and in view of this trustees will assist in all ways possible, even to seeing that the sandy lot is well sprinkled, with Trustee Backs as master of ceremonies.
Trustee Dwyer reported that John Calkins, of the county road department had asked for privilege of storing and heating road oil at the power house, but owing to lack of facilities for that purpose the trustees did not see their way clear to grant the same. The county is handicapped in unloading cars at this point for some reason, and $6 per day demurrage is charged for all unloaded cars. Mr. Calkins thought by using the city equipment relief would be obtained, but it could not be done, the trustees averred.
Upon motion of Gibbs, seconded by McFadden, it was ordered that the appeal case to the court of appeal be dropped. The case hinged on a technical law point involving the passage and publication of a resolution passed by the board in the old city hall embellishment.
Trustee Dwyer reported that upon the advice of Attorney Callor and Attorney Ames, he had secured the services of Charles Conliffe to remove the piece of menacing wall at the second story of the old city hall, which had been rendered topsy-turvy by the recent temblor. Some one asked, "how about a new city hall?" But that is another story.
Applications for positions for city office were next in order. The following were received:
For gas motor street sweeper, Ralph Sheldon, 915 E. Broadway.
Recorder, J. S. Howard.
Rate Collector, W. A. Wallace and W. H. Hunt.
City Engineer, O. E. Steward.
City Attorney, Roger C. Dutton, H. G. Ames, O. T. Callor and H. V. Weisel.
Electrician, B. W. Hannum.
Superintendent of streets, J. W. Sackett.
City marshal, John Kellenberger and A. W. Wood.
The appointment of rate collector was given first consideration. Dwyer grounds yesterday afternoon, were not announced until Monday, but they were in line with statements previously made in this paper.
The parade started at 1 o'clock, the place of beginning being the corner of Broadway and Los Angeles streets. City Marshal A. W. Wood was in the lead, followed by the city trustees and all officials of the city in decorated autos, the Anaheim band coming next. Then came the various schools, the secret orders, civic bodies, etc., with many beautiful floats and decorated machines. The king and queen with their large retinue, came first, riding in chariots. Ladies and gentlemen garbed in colonial costume, Indians explorers and representatives of America's early days; the forty-eight states of the Union in the order of their admission; scenes from the slave days, our allies in the war, and the Junior Red Gross.
Then followed Joan of Arc, represented by Mrs. John Eells, mounted on the white horse which Geraldine Farrar rode when that spectacular play was staged at Balboa. She was attended by maids and guarded by knights in armor. High school girls, the high school cadets and the Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias followed, a colonial feature being presented by the Knights.
Katella, Loara, Magnolia, Savannah and Cypress schools, and parent teachers associations with many beautiful floats came next. All the Anaheim schools, including the Lutheran, St. Joseph's and St. Catharine's were in line, the board of trade, the merchant's association were represented with numerous floats, war savings stamp clubs, the Red Cross, the Fullerton drum corps, and the boy scouts followed.
The procession came north on Los Angeles street to Center, east on Center to Philadelphia, then countermarched to the high school campus where the exercises of the afternoon were held. The pageant on the high school grounds was one of the most elaborate displays ever undertaken here. Three hundred actors were in the scenes, representing the triumph of democracy over autocracy, and 300 volcese were heard in the chorus of the musical department. The grammar school orchestra led the music. The scenes depicted the separation of democracy from autocracy, the king being the autocrat and the queen the democrat. Early scenes in American history were shown as well as the struggle to free the slaves. The belief trines and ness sake

Certificate of election was received from E. B. Merritt as city clerk, with National Insurance Co. of New York, as surety in the sum of $2500. The same was accepted and ordered filed.
Bids for the new Imhoff tank at the sewer farm were received as follows. The bids provide for completion of tank according to specifications:
C. McNeal of Santa Ana, $4137.
J. P. Hunter, $4500.
Orange County Engineering Construction Co., $5000.
Wells-Bressler Co., $4700.
It was moved by McFadden, seconded by Backs, that the bid of McNeal be accepted. So ordered. Work upon same will be rushed to an early completion, as the city has been cited by the superior court to have the same remedied within 100 days. At the recent trial the court declared the sewer farm to be a nuisance, but stipulated that the trustees would be granted 100 days to abate the same. It is expected that the additional tank will relieve the situation, but with the constant growth of the city, with its attendant increased sewerage outfall, it is a moot question whether one extra Imhoff tank will suffice. The sewer farm has resolved itself into a case that may be classed as complex.
The Union Oil company was given permission to move their oil station from West Center and Lemon street to a point outside the limits.
A communication was received from the bureau of salvage, American Red Cross, asking that all materials which heretofore have been wasted, be turned over to the Red Cross. The salvage Rate Collector, W. A. Wallace and W. H. Hunt.
City Engineer, O. E. Steward.
City Attorney, Roger C. Dutton, H. G. Ames, O. T. Callor and H. V. Weisel.
Electrician, B. W. Hannum.
Superintendent of streets, J. W. Sackett.
City marshal, John Kellenberger and A. W. Wood.
The appointment of rate collector was given first consideration. Dwyer thought one of the banks could do the collecting. This precipitated a lengthy discussion. Backs was of opinion the affairs were now in competent hands and that it was a one man's job. McFadden figured the revenues were now being economically collected. The rate collector receives $80 per month, and the receipts will total about $61,000 a year. Every penny must be accounted for. Dwyer averred the rate collector now has much surplus time on his hands, inasmuch as all the money is supposed to come in between the first and sixth of each month. Dwyer thought the making out of the receipts ought not to consume more than a day or two, and that were the penalty made strong enough there would necessarily be no delinquents. By the use of improved appliances in making out the receipts much time would be saved. At present, besides it takes two men from the power house six days each to read the meters. This did not look good to Dwyer. City Clerk Merritt took a hand in the discussion upholding the present system and saying the affairs in the rate collector's department were in excellent shape, and it would be folly to disturb them. There are now 2500 consumers of light and water, and it is elaborate displays ever undertaken here. Three hundred actors were in the scenes, representing the triumph of democracy over autocracy, and 300 volcsse were heard in the chorus of the musical department. The grammar school orchestra led the music. The scenes depicted the separation of democracy from autocracy, the king being the autocrat and the queen the democrat. Early scenes in American history were shown as well as the struggle to free the slaves. The history was brought down to the present day showing our battle against the autocrat of Berlin, and finally wound up with the triumph of the people over the autocrat.
Chairman Ahlborn of the war savings stamp committee, had booths on the ground where his clerks were busy selling thrift stamps.
SEDITIOUS LITERATURE DISTRIBUTED IN ANAHEIM
Defense of Pastor Russell's Book Is Found on All Door Steps
A couple of women, presumably from Los Angeles, were in town Sunday distributing throughout the city a two page sheet, printed by the International Bible Student's association at New York. It is headed "Kingdom News," the entire contents being a protest against the suppression by federal authorities of "The Finished Mystery." Pastor Russell's latest and last contribution to literature. They succeeded in leaving one on every door step in town, but it is not probable that many of them were read.
Several weeks ago the Los Angeles branch of the International Bible Students' association was raided by federal officers, the leaders were placed
UNDER ARREST AND ALL COPIES OF "The Finished Mystery" seized and destroyed on the ground that it was seditious. Several hundred copies had been sold in Orange county, and these were collected by the local officers. Government agents and police were keeping the place under surveillance and learned that literature was about to be distributed. Simultaneously Sunday morning more than a score of men and women appeared in various sections of the city and began the work of distribution, many of the sheets being folded in the morning papers lying on the lawns. The officers immediately became active and nearly half of the bunch was arrested. They are held on a charge of circulating pro-German propaganda.
The circulator attempts to defend the seditious teachings of Pastor Russell, and is principally a tirade against the clergy, Protestant and Catholic alike. In fact it attempts to show that the believers in Pastor Russell's doctrines are persecuted for righteousness sake.

Patriotic Anaheim is doing its level best to help your Uncle Samuel strafe the kaiser.

Every section of the county reported its allotment more than subscribed Saturday night with the exception of Santa Ana.

NO PARTY LINES
W. H. Hayes, chairman of the National republican committee, in speaking at the meeting of the Red Cross organization which conducted the drive for the Third Liberty loan in Los Angeles, said, "Today there is one real business in America and that is to win the war. There is only one side to the question of war and that is to wage every interest to the one ultimate goal—Victory—and today every political party in this country entitled to any consideration, shall stand side by side for that cause. There is no time to discuss causes of the war. We are in France and going in millions to fight, and if it is not fought out there, it will be fought out here. More Liberty bonds mean less blood, not only American blood but less blood of the innocent children and women of France spilled by the German murderers. We are fighting so that kind of business can no longer go on in this world.
