DOLAN ELECTED PRESIDENT BANKERS' ASSOCIATION County Financiers Hold Annual Banquet at Santa Ana. One of the pleasantest and most successful of the annual meetings of the Orange County Bankers' Association was that held Tuesday night at Elks' hall, Santa Ana, when over 275 bank officers and their ladies were banqueted and treated to an exceptionally fine musical program. While the gathering was the annual meeting of the association for the election of officers, the election took very little time, and following the banquet was quickly consummated. The outgoing president and secretary, W. B. Williams, cashier of the First National Bank of Santa Ana, and E. B. Sprague, cashier of the Orange County Trust and Savings Bank of Santa Ana, had charge of the election. The new officers chosen are: President, W. A. Dolan, of the Anaheim National Bank; vice-president, L. M. Doyle, cashier of the California National Bank of Santa Ana; secretary, R. L. Phegley, assistant cashier of the Anaheim National Bank; treasurer, J. R. Porter, cashier of the National Bank of Orange. Probably never before were more people seated in the beautiful banquet hall of the Elks' building than were seated at long tables beautifully decorated for the occasion by the caterer, James. It was a sumptuous five-course banquet, from fruit cocktail to nuts, and following it the bankers and their guests adjourned to the lodge room of the Elks, where the musical program was given as prepared by the local committee of arrangements, consisting of George E. Peters of the Orange County Trust and Savings Bank could be considered upon its merits without involving or imperiling the other. Mr. Taft is far from complimentary to the intelligence or independence of mind of these thirty-nine Senators when he asserts that they 'may well say that the second objection is removed because now to insist upon opposing or amending the league which is web and woof of the peace treaty submitted to them, is to postpone peace rather than to expedite it.' Mr. Taft now undertakes to accomplish what has evidently been the purpose of President Wilson from the beginning—to weave the league of nations into the peace treaty in such a way as to force its adoption regardless of its defects and its surrender of American sovereignty and American interests. Far from being removed, the second objection still stands. The very fact that the league of nations covenant has been amended is admission of the importance of considering it as a separate document to be agreed to or rejected solely upon its own merits. If amendments have been proper and necessary in one instance, after President Wilson had solemnly declared that there was a reason for each of its provisions, how can it be contended by President Wilson or anyone else that further amendments are improper or unnecessary? To make the league of nations covenant web and woof of the peace treaty is an imposition upon the Senate and a violation of the spirit if not of the letter of that provision of the Constitution of the United States which requires that treaties shall be made by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. Mr. Taft's argument is that the league must be accepted because it is woven into the peace treaty and to insist upon its of Justice. Upon armistice, Presidency after the expiration administration may exercise control over all vantage business. Not being exerted is some relief, but do not invest their energies in tainties.

Peters of the Orange County Trust and Savings Bank, chairman; F. M. Robinson of the First National, Alex. Brownridge of the Home Savings Bank and E. E. Vincent of the California National. The entertainers were members of a troupe that has been appearing at the Alexandria and at the Hotel Virginia, Los Angeles, and in every way they fulfilled their mission last evening. Every moment of each of the numbers was thoroughly enjoyed. The entertainers were: L. Collins, pianist; Miss Bernardine Whelan, violinist; Bobbie Gross, comedy songster; Miss Hester Hoffman, popular soprano; Joe Russ, piano accordionist. TAFT DOES NOT REPRESENT THE SENATE Former President Taft's declaration that the thirty-nine Senators who signed the protest against the league of nations may now vote to ratify the peace treaty with the supposedly amended league of nations as a part of it, is one more evidence of Mr. Taft's mistaken appraisal of the patriotism, capacity and devotion to a public duty which impels members of the U. S. Senate. Those thirty-nine men after the most careful deliberation signed a document in which they declared that efforts should be immediately directed to the urgent business of negotiating peace terms and that the proposal for a league of nations should be then taken up for careful and serious consideration. It was the manifest intention of the protestants, and was so understood by the country, that the peace treaty and the league of nations should be submitted separately so that each TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT BY MEN The vitally important difference between government by law and government by men is that government by law is definite and certain, while government by men is uncertain and precarious. We have government by law when a citizen can read in the plain language of a statute or constitution the extent and limit of his rights, duties and responsibilities. We have government by men whenever and to the extent that a citizen is in doubt as to his rights and obligations. The chief trouble with American business and American industry today is that we have too much government by men and too little government by law. There is uncertainty everywhere. There is timidity because men cannot know definitely and specifically how far they can venture in enterprise without danger of running counter to some official's interpretation of discretionary powers bestowed upon him in the exigencies of war. After all the years it has been on the statute books and after all the judicial interpretation it has received, the application of the Sherman anti-trust law is still uncertain, and business men look not to the law but to the varying policies or supposed policies of the Department CLOTHES CLOTHES FOR WORKERS The Best Brands.

Upon the signing of the armistice, President Wilson said, "Thus the war came to an end," but after the expiration of five months the administration still possesses and still may exercise war powers which give control over almost every line of private business. That the powers are not being exercised in some instances is some relief, but not full relief. Men do not invest their money or expend their energies in the face of uncertainties. But the restraining influence of government by men is not limited to conditions arising from the war. Before the United States entered the war Congress had gradually extended the practice of enacting laws which conferred large and unnecessary discretion upon the President, Departments, Commissions and bureaus. Such has been the tendency for many years. It is a departure from the fundamental principles of a Republican form of government best defined by President Lincoln in his reference to "government of the people, by the people, for the people." Popular governments operate through laws. Autocracies operate through edicts of rulers. That is the fundamental difference between government by law and government by men—the difference between democracy and autocracy—the difference between orderly government and bolshevism. Every American citizen, whether a capitalist or a day laborer, whether an employer or employee, should demand that present laws conferring uncertainty and discretionary powers be amended or repealed and that henceforth no law shall be enacted creating any uncertainty as to the rights, duties and responsibilities of every individual. If a law cannot be made definite and certain it ought not to be made at all. And They Say Some of the luke warm tribe at San Tana have emerged from their hibernating quarters and while preening their pin feathers allow now that the open pink tea parlors have been bottled up, the county sanitarium under the tutelage of the sheriff has been losing its popularity. There has always been a quota of the citizenry of the hustlingburg across the raging river who have acquired the habit of laying awake nights thinking of how they can slam this peaceable and law-abiding community, and this latest thrust is a part of their insidious propaganda. There is an old axiom that those who live in glass houses should crawl into the hay in the dark, and if the Santanans would fumigate their blind tigers sufficiently to choke them they could then hold their heads up when coming over here to lamp our oil gushers. Quite a few of the city employees are becoming halter broke to the idea of having a manager and now look upon the proposed change in the municipal regime as being alright. As their situations now appear upon the map they virtually have five bosses while under the new order they would have but one. This might ease up their minds a bit and no doubt would avoid sleeplessness at night, provided they passed muster during their day shifts. But applying the acid test the creating of a managerial officer will promote efficiency because an employee can receive instructions first hand during any day in the week while now he is compelled to spruce up in his best store clothes when appearing before the august council every fourteen days when conferring with the council- Rexall Remedies" At One Cent Prices The well established guarantee on Rexall Remedies means your money back if they fail to satisfy you.

SUGGESTIONS TO SETTLERS A pamphlet entitled, "Suggestions to the Settler in California," which is the most comprehensive statement relative to California agriculture yet published, has just been issued by the University of California Press. The pamphlet is issued as "Circular 210 of the State University Agricultural Experiment Station. Members of the agricultural staff give the financial requirements and cultural methods which are customary in California for 25 characteristic crops and agricultural industries. The publication is entirely devoid of propaganda. One thousand copies of the circular have been sent, upon request, to the American Army University at Beaume, France. In the first part of the circular Dean Hunt discusses such topics as "expected yield," "social contact," "how capital is obtained," "type of location," etc. BARGAINS IN USED CARS Two 1917 Oakland Touring cars, two Maxwells, one 1917 Dort, one Bulk, one Hupmobile Roadster at $375.00, one Model 83 Overland, one Auburn, one Reo, 1914 to 1917 Ford Roadsters and Touring Cars.

The guy who does the heavy stuff on a new publication, having for its aim the castigation of the expenditure of a half million in the creation of a harbor down Newport way, heaves a trenchant pen and it's doubtful if the harbor project will be able to weather the broadsides, if the people take to reading the dope and thinking it over. Of course, there are many good citizens who favor the harbor heartily. The new publication seems to be issued solely to sew up the cherished dream of the water front contingent and their friends, and to a man up a tree it looks as though they will have to step lively if they wish to get under the wire first when bond election day rolls around. Some of the young gents just turning fifteen are quite a sporty looking bunch—patent leather shoes, green sox, the latest styled raiment, lavender tie, the proper list to their headgear and a swagger to their gait that's a lulu, all going in for a down to the minute make-up. Some have a best girl, while others stag it, and all seem to be having the time of their lives. Oh, boy! A good old scout, who years ago pulled into the section to the northwest, where he practiced dry farming with some success, but keeping a weather eye out for a sudden rush of water during an unusually wet season, in order to move over onto higher and dryer soil, is now firm in his aforetime convictions that his judgment was good in choosing a homestead there. Many were the merry quips he permitted to pass, like water running off a duck's back, and continued serenely on in his horticultural pursuits, mean- Remedies" At One Cent Prices The well established guarantee on Rexall Remedies means your money back if they fail to satisfy you.

As a result of the decision the Anti-Saloon forces will attempt to have congress enact a law fixing the limit which may be kept on hand throughout the nation. If such a law is enacted the far-seeing persons who have laid in a supply will have their excess liquor confiscated.

Automobiles increase, but so, by the very late figures, so does the number of horses in the United States. One still hears, now and then, the remark that automobiles will eventually lead to the extinction of horses, and that in time children will be told of the odd old days when men drove those curious quadrupeds. The reports, however, show that there are now about 21,534,000 horses in the United States, although the nation furnished about 1,200,000 for the war. In 1900, at the beginning of the rapid increase in automobiles, the country contained some 18,267,020 horses, so that the actual increase, even with the war to lessen the total, is over 3,000,000. No wonder the horses long ago ceased to be alarmed at the sight of an automobile. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance. The Rexall Store ONE CENT SALE!
