Ahlborn has been reappointed postmaster, his first term having expired, taking the oath of office Saturday. Mr. Ahlborn's administration of the office has been so universally satisfactory that nobody thought of keeping tab on the date of the expiration of his term. While Postmaster Ahlborn was busily engaged selling bonds at the Liberty tank celebration Monday evening he received word that somebody was busily engaged in burglarizing his house. He made record time getting home but found the visitors had evidently taken alarm and departed before his arrival, and so far as he could determine nothing had been taken from the premises. Neighbors reported that they had seen a light turned on in the house, and knowing that the family was absent, sent the alarm to Mr. Ahlborn. A rock thrown on to a wagon loaded with beans being hauled to a thresher might have done a lot of damage to the threshing machine had not someone seen the rock. For his part in the affair Jose Carillo is in the county jail on a disturbance charge. He has been working for John Cook's threshing outfit on the San Joaquin ranch. He became peeved over something, and decided to get even. One of the other men employed by the outfit skys that Carillo picked up a rock the size of a man's two fists and threw it on to the load.

The names are in large black letters, upon a white background, and the work is done in Gresswell's usual artistic manner. But few new registrations are coming in for the November election. The last day to register and the last day to transfer will be October 5. There are no doubt many who failed to register for the primaries who will want to register so they can vote. Three candidates were initiated into the Elks lodge Wednesday evening, the officers of Glendale lodge doing the work. The new members are E. R. Abbey, B. D. McAlvay and S. C. Merchant.

Lo, the poor Indian, is doing his bit in this war, but he is not fighting in accordance with Hun etiquette. Mrs. George Myers tells of the exploits of an Oklahoma Indian, a friend of her family, who wrote the facts to her relatives himself. He was captured by the Huns, he wrote, and was placed in charge of five men. The playful guardsmen thought to have some fun at the expense of the noble red man, consequently they began to torture him. That made him mad and aroused the native savage in him. Turning on his tormentors he seized one and by a liujitsu trick, handed down perhaps from his aboriginal ancestors, broke his neck. With the dead man's weapon he killed two others before the slow-moving wheels in their boche heads got into action, and the other two stuck up their mits and yelled "Kamad." Lo's civilized training got the upper-hand then, and instead of killing them he marched them back to the American lines. Buy your talking machine of Schmidt. Reports made to Collector of Customs Elliott show that the loyal ranchers living on both sides of the Mexican boundary line intend doing what they can to discourage the draft slackers who are expected to stream over the border to escape the latest call to duty. At a recent meeting in Mexicall of members of the Lower California Agricultural Association, which is made up of leading ranchers residing in that part of the country, a resolution was first passed with excellent grades and is now a seaman, second class. The officer who notified him of the result of his examination stated that he wanted him for his assistant. Schmidt sells talking machines. A gigantic figure "4," made of wood, is Fred Gresswell's contribution to the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign. The figure is built of flooring, is 20 foot high, and Mr. Gresswell was ably assisted in its construction by L. K. Marshall, who also donated his services. It is suitably decorated and lettered, a representation of "Old Glory draped about it being painted on its face. The figure has been set up in front of the Houck building near the postoffice with a background of blue behind it. A spotlight from the Oyster Loaf cafe, on the opposite side of the street, will throw electric rays on it at night. Gresswell has also boxed in the flagpole at the intersection of Los Angeles and Center streets with figure "4s" similar to the big one. The figures are six feet in height and a thermometer on each will register the amount subscribed. A streak of red paint is substituted for the mercury, the paint gradually climbing upward as the loan increases. For musical instruments see Schmidt. The spectacle of two of Anaheim's guardians of the peace fighting desperately on a prominent thoroughfare, was witnessed Saturday afternoon. The men were Policemen Andrade and DeWitt. It appears from the evidence obtainable that the fight started from an insignificant affair, but bad blood existed between the two men consequently it took very little to fan the smouldering spark into a flame. DeWitt claims that Andrade began hostilities by attacking him with his club, but Andrade's statement is to effect that DeWitt threatened him, but he told him that the street was no place for them to fight, but if he would walk down to the office he would accommodate him. With that he turned to walk away but DeWitt attacked him. "What could I do," he said "but fight in my own defense? I either had to fight or run." Both men were relieved of their positions by Marshal Wood. They had a hearing before Judge Howard Monday, and will be placed on trial later. Marshal Wood had already requested DeWitt's resignation as a member of the police force, and he was to retire the first of the month Andrade went to Judge Howard's office. The past week has recorded few changes in the Valencia situation. A few rainy days caused a temporary easing off of the market in New York and Philadelphia, but favorable weather conditions the latter part of the week has again brought these markets back to strong position with slight advances noted on best brands. Sales of fresh deciduous fruits continue liberal and is having some effect on the Valencia situation. Decidious fruits are rapidly cleaning up, however, and offerings are not as attractive as earlier in the season. The first offering of new-crop Jamaica orange was made in New York on Wednesday. The sale comprised 1,000 boxes and sold at a range of $3.75 to $4.25, averaging $4.05. The fruit showed some decay and was quite green. Parson Brown variety of Florida oranges are expected on the market early in October. Orders are now reported being booked on a basis of $f.o.b. Jacksonville on Parson Brown's shipment early next month. These early shipments of oranges from Florida and Jamaica are not expected to materially affect the Valencia situation as Valencia shipments will in all probability be well cleaned up by October 20, there being only between 600 and 700 cars remaining for shipment. Prices the past week in the auction markets have continued to rule higher than private sale markets, averages on best brands going as high as $11.15 in Boston on Wednesday. Some few brands have averaged down as low as $5.05, but the bulk of the sales have shown better than $8 average. F.o.b. quotations continue unchanged, being on a basis of $7.50 to $7.75 with considerable activity reported from Seattle and San Francisco territory. New-crop navels are coming on nicely with indications of considerable early fruit from Southern California districts. Reports from the East indicate that the trade are rapidly cleaning up on stocks here and are again in the Reports made to Collector of Customs Elliott show that the loyal ranchers living on both sides of the Mexican boundary line intend doing what they can to discourage the draft slackers who are expected to stream over the border to escape the latest call to duty. At a recent meeting in Mexicall of members of the Lower California Agricultural Association, which is made up of leading ranchers residing in that part of the country, a resolution was adopted to the effect that both asylum and employment should be refused to any such who come into Mexico for the purpose of avoiding military service. Any member of the organization violating the letter or spirit of the resolution will be black-listed, it is said. Information has been brought to the members of the association that a wholesale arrival of the cowards is expected in the near future, and the action is taken to prepare for their coming. Charlie Conliffe cast a critical eye over toward the old city hall the other day, and remarked that the derelict is a real menace and should be torn down. There is a crack in the west wall, he says, that extends from the top of the wall to the bottom, fully an inch wide and seems to be getting wider. A similar damage extends in a relative position in the east wall, while fissures of lesser extent occur in the front wall, while the rear one is wobbly. The building was erected a long time ago and its foundation was not strongly entrenched. Many citizens are afraid to pass along the sidewalk in front of the place. Whenever a good stiff southeast wind blows many people look out of their windows to see if the old tower is still standing. For musical instruments see Schmidt. Walk down to the office he would commode him. With that he turned to walk away but DeWitt attacked him. "What could I do," he said "but fight in my own defense? I either had to fight or run." Both men were relieved of their positions by Marshal Wood. They had a hearing before Judge Howard Monday, and will be placed on trial later. Marshal Wood had already requested DeWitt's resignation as a member of the police force, and he was to retire the first of the month. Andrade went to Judge Howard's office later and changed his plea to guilty. His honor accepted the plea, but declined to fix a penalty until further investigation. Buy your talking machine of Schmidt. C. E. Utt, well known citrus grower of Tustin and part owner of the San Joaquin fruit ranch, is branching out into a new field, and announces the beginning of a grape juice business. He is starting out on a small scale, having this year between 3,000 and 4,000 quarts of juice. If his venture proves successful, grape raising in Orange county may "come back," this time producing the simple grape juice instead of the fermented wine of former years when the Orange county vintage was prized the world over. Mr. Utt has an acre of Concord and Isaelle grapes on his Lemon Heights ranch and last year put up a few quarts of juice, which he presented to his friends. They complimented him upon the product, and averred it had a "tang" of its own. That set Mr. Utt to thinking and investigating, and when he was east last year he visited a number of grape juice plants, where he secured many valuable ideas for his new business.

New-crop navels are coming on nicely with indications of considerable early fruit from Southern California districts. Reports from the East indicate that the trade are rapidly cleaning up on stocks on hand and are again in the market to a limited extent for fresh supplies. There is still a surplus of 360s size lemons but lighter shipments is improving conditions a little and a fair demand has resulted. The spread of Spanish influenza is also calling for the use of lemons more freely at this time and is helping the demand. The situation on supplies of foreign lemons in New York is cleaning up somewhat and when these are out of the way a better demand from eastern markets is looked for. FARM ADVISOR CONFERENCE More Food! Bigger Crops! How can Southern California respond to the government's call? This question will be answered at the conference of farm advisors and farm bureau delegates to be held at River-side, October 3rd. Farm Advisor Wahlberg and Mr. E. E. Campbell, representing Orange county farm bureau, will bring back the message to the farmers of this county. If food will win the war, the farmer has a big job to perform. He has a big responsibility to meet, but the government is willing to help him through the farm bureaus, farm advisors and experiment stations. HAVE YOUR NEW FALL DRESS Fitted over a "GOSSARD" CORSET For Sale only at Falkenstein's Department Store A FOOL LAW The supreme court has decided that neither Mayor Rolph of San Francisco nor Francis J. Heney can be the democratic candidate for governor. Thus is the will of the people frustrated by the abominable act of legislation called a "primary law," says the Seal Beach Wave. It was clearly demonstrated at the polls that Rolph is the choice of a large majority of the people in this state for the governorship. He received more votes at the primary than did Governor Stephens and Heney combined, but a freak primary law bars him from making the final race. The "Wave" has been criticised for referring to the primary law as a "fool law." The only apology the "Wave" has to offer is that the word "fool" when coupled with the primary law, is too mild a term unless qualified by a few emphatic prefixes. A law that permits a person to be a candidate on a party ticket at a primary election and then automatically keeps that person off the general election ballot after winning the nomination in the primary, has neither sense, right nor justice. It is several kinds of a fool law and should have its head chopped off by the next legislature. PACIFIC COAST'S QUOTA Following official advices from Washington that the amount of the Fourth Liberty Loan was $6,000,000,000, of which 6.7 per cent or $402,000,000 was charged against this Federal Reserve district, G. K. Weeks, general campaign manager, has given out the reapportionment among states in the twelfth district which has been made by the general executive board on the basis of gross bank resources averaged between the December 31, 1917 and June 29, 1918, bank calls. These quotas for major divisions of the twelfth district, as compared with quotas and subscriptions for the Third Liberty Loan, are as follows: Arizona ..... $ 6,231,200 California (Northern) ..... 185,489,050 California (Southern) ..... 72,067,350 Idaho ..... 14,549,400 Nevada ..... 5,033,850 Oregon ..... 33,708,100 Utah ..... 18,570,800 Washington ..... 58,215,800 Alaska ..... 1,369,400 Hawaii ..... 6,765,050 Total ..... $402,000,000 Buy your piano of Schmidt.
