PARK. ADVOCATES STILL ACTIVE ON JOB TAKING STEPS TO ORGANIZE HOLDING COMPANY FOR LIBRARY BLOCK. With City Hall Removal Eliminated Believe Bond Issue Will Carry.—Prices May Advance After Option Expires. Undismayed by the count of the ballots which showed that they lacked forty votes of enough to authorize the issuance of bonds for purchasing the library block for a city park, proponents of the proposition have not given up, but hope eventually to see the ground converted into a place of recreation for grown ups and a playground for children. J. P. Mayhow who has been a warm ad MURDOCK HENRY RECALLS VASQUEZ Bandit and Companions had Breakfast at Williams Ranch at Buena Park in Early Seventies. Murdock Henry is in town visiting his brother, Alexander Henry, having recently returned from Honolulu, where he went some time ago with a number of horses to enter track meets at several points in the islands. His horses entered in four races, of which he won two, was second in the third and lost the fourth. He greatly enjoyed his visit to the islands, this being his first trip there. He left his horses in San Francisco, and came to this city on a visit to his brother. He will probably remain until after the first of the year. Murdock came to Anaheim in 1868, and remembers many of the old time pioneers. Speaking of Tiburcio Vasquez, the bandit he mentioned a visit of the highwayman and two companions to the Isaac Williams garden grove. DIRECTOR H. A. L.

J. P. Mayhew, who has been a warm advocate of a park and civic center, recently sprung a generous proposition, but it is so generous that it is not likely to materialize. Mr. Mayhew offered to be one of 75 persons to donate a thousand dollars each for the purchase of the site, the same to be presented to the city. Perhaps a number of others could be found willing to donate a thousand dollars to the cause, but it is a foregone conclusion the number would fall far short of 75. There is a proposition at the front now which, if carried out will probably result in giving the city a much needed park. A meeting of citizens was held at the board of trade rooms Monday night for the purpose of discussing the organization of a holding company to acquire title to the various pieces of property in the library block and hold it until another election is held on a bond proposition. It is agreed that the ground can be purchased under the option now held at a reasonable figure, but that prices will advance at the expiration of the options. Should another election be called removal of the city hall from its present site to the park would not be one of the propositions, consequently much of the opposition would be eliminated. It is conceded that bonds for a park would have been voted at the last election, if the ballot had not carried the provision that the ground was to be used for a city hall site. No definite action was taken the park would not be one of the propositions, consequently much of the opposition would be eliminated. It is conceded that bonds for a park would have been voted at the last election, if the ballot had not carried the provision that the ground was to be used for a city hall site. No definite action was taken at the meeting Monday night, but it is believed little trouble will be realized in forming the company. Under the options now held the land can be acquired for $75,000, which is considered a reasonable figure. If these options expire before purchase is made, it is believed higher prices would be demanded for all the pieces, owing to the rapid advance in real estate. Even should the people fail to vote the bonds the holding company would be safe, as the property is considered worth the money asked. Regarding the Des Granges lot at the corner of Lemon and Broadway, it is stated that title can be acquired through the guardian of Mrs. Des Granges, the owner, who will be granted a permit to sell by the court. F. A. Hartman will begin the erection next week of a brick business building adjoining the Hartman block at the corner of Center and Olive. The building will occupy the vacant lot between the present Hartman building and the Gazette office, and will extend back to alley. A bridge across the Santa Ana river and a paved highway from Orange into the Richfield oil district is to be one of the big things that the Merchants' and Manufacturers' Association of Orange is to center its efforts on in the future and it will keep active on the project until it is put over or definitely decided that it cannot be accomplished. The association will endeavor to have the project included in the proposed bond issue for an extension of paved roads in the county. The organization has been assured that if that community will stand solidly back of the county bond issue, provision will be made for the paving and bridge offering a direct connection with the oil district and Orange and Santa Ana. The matter of the road to Richfield and the bridge was referred to the roads and bridge committee of the association. Attorneys for the assailant believe that there is no der which the Pacific Tide and Telegraph Company checkmate it, but in order for their ground in future they will cause a friend to be brought to determine legal points involved. Favorable court decision rectors will proceed with to organize the entire and make plans for the construction of exchanges in this where it is deemed they be maintained. From investigations by the directors they believe they can establish a courthouse that would give connections with all exchange an exchange rental no than is changed now, service limited to certain within the single exchange possibly at a much cheap Some go so far as to the county-wide service given at half the exchange of today. The initial cost of this project is estimated at $100 per square mile. With 10,000 estimate possible number of suites the project becomes a dollar enterprise.

News of the death of Jennie Kraemer, which occurred at Banning on Tuesday, Nov. 11, was sorrowfully received by her numerous friends throughout the northern part of the county. For the past 23 months she has been living at Banning, where she was taken by her parents in the hope of benefitting her health, and although she was known to be very ill, announcement of her death came as a shock. Miss Jennie was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Kraemer of Placentia. She was a native of this section and had she lived until the 29th of December would have been eighteen years of age. Two years ago she was afflicted with a cough, and hoping the dry atmosphere of the desert country would relieve her, her parents took her to Banning, but she was unable to overcome the disease.

H. A. Lake was empowered by the Orange County Farmers' and Merchants' Association to organize the exchange and on Saturday he held a conference with Charles Eygaroad, president, and H. B. Woodrough, secretary of the association, for the purpose of arranging details. When the franchise was granted for the county system it was stipulated that work should begin within four months, and as that time has almost expired, therefore it was decided to organize the first exchange at the Grove and begin work at once. As that town is not incorporated it is not necessary to delay work while a city franchise is secured. Garden Grove business men and farmers have been demanding the organization of an independent exchange in that district ever since the first advance was made in the Pacific rates, but action has been deferred pending result of the organization of the county-wide association. With many members of the community ready to back the enterprise with financial and moral support there will be little trouble in developing an organization that will make it possible to commence investigation there in a very short time. A small exchange can be organized readily and built so that it can become a part of the county system later. A small exchange will suffice for the preliminary work of the greater organization, and it will offer an opportunity for development of legal phases and court action to determine whether the county system can be installed legally. Attorneys for the association believe that there is no law under which the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company can enter of Placentia.

Two years ago she was afflicted with a cough, and hoping the dry atmosphere of the desert country would relieve her, her parents took her to Banning, but she was unable to overcome the disease. She was a lovable girl, and her untimely death is sincerely mourned by all who knew her. The remains were brought home by Backs & Terry Tuesday, fueral being held at St. Mary's church, Fullerton, at 10 o'clock Thursday, Rev. J. Galvin conducting the services. A large number of friends gathered at the church, and many beautiful floral offerings were presented. The remains were interred at Anaheim. CITY MANAGER ASSUMES DUTIES O. E. Steward was lastalled in Office This Week and Now Has Charge of City Affairs. O. E. Steward took the oath of office this week, as city manager, which was administered by City Clerk Merritt, and was formally inducted into office. He will have general supervision over all mechanical departments and will attend to the many matters of routine nature that have heretofore engaged the attention of the trustees. The manager will also be the purchasing agent for the city. The city manager plan has been adopted by other cities and has been found satisfactory. Regarding efficiency it is believed that better results will be obtained in view of the fact that employees will have one executive officer to report to, as in several instances in the past they would look to the several members of the council for advice and counsel. Mr. Steward is capable and well qualified to enter of Placentia. The trustees met in regular session Thursday evening. There were present Mayor Dwyer, Trustees Stark, Backs, Mann and Gibbs. Attorney Ames was present. The session was devoid of any thrills and to the casual observer the municipal ship of state seems to be plying in placid waters.

Mr. Crawford representing the company addressed the board relative to the hose which he says is used in almost every city in the country. He gave the city a price of 80 cents per foot, with a ten per cent discount. Mr. Hirsch of Los Angeles, representing the Bayside Co. also submitted his goods and prices. The Mayor asked Fire Chief Fischle which brand of hose he considered more flexible of the two, but Fischle admitted he was not up on hose, and called up Driver Minyard, asking him the same question. The latter admitted that the two brands on hand had considerable elasticity but he was unable to definitely determine the superiority of one over the other. When the board was somewhat non-plussed as to which brand of hose was more pliable than the other Trustee Stark came to the rescue and picking up the American Co. brand said tended to invest in offered by the active to prorate in the county the motor vehicle port at a furious.

A communicated from Drey Francisco ask time in making their building At a special Attorneys for the association believe that there is no law under which the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company can checkmate it, but in order that the directors may be sure of their ground in future action they will cause a friendly suit to be brought to determine all legal points involved. With a favorable court decision, the directors will proceed with energy to organize the entire county and make plans for the installation of exchanges in the centers where it is deemed they should be maintained. From investigations made by the directors they believe that they can establish a county-wide system that would give free connections with all exchanges at an exchange rental no greater than one man is changed now, with the service limited to connections within the single exchanges, and possibly at a much cheaper rate. Some go so far as to say that the county-wide service can be given at half the exchange rates of today. The initial cost of the system is estimated at $100 per phone. With 10,000 estimated as the possible number of subscribers, the project becomes a million dollar enterprise. Tentative arrangements have been made with a telephone engineer and he will advise with the directors in the preliminary stages and when it is definitely determined that organization can be completed without possibility of legal complications, he will become identified with the movement and continue in the service of the association until the system is built, and possibly become manager later. Regarding efficiency it is believed that better results will be obtained in view of the fact that employees will have one executive officer to report to, as in several instances in the past they would look to the several members of the council for advice and counsel. Mr. Steward is capable and well qualified to fill the new position and will conduct his office strictly along non-partisan lines. He at all times will be working for the best interests of the city and should be given the moral support of all enterprising citizens. The board of trade has been flirting with Tommasin's band in an endeavor to make a date with that famous musical aggregation for a concert in Anaheim. A letter was received from the leader Tuesday announcing that he would send twenty pieces here one night for $180. If a bargain is made one of the theatres will probably be secured for the concert. The purchase of a siamese and nozzle was left to the fire committee. The 1½-inch hose is to be connected to the larger fire hose, in case of fire, which will permit one man, to handle each section. It requires two or three men to manipulate the large 2¼-inch and by using the smaller size hose less damage from water would occur and the firemen could work more advantageously in getting in and around a building. The committee on public improvements received a letter relative to installing the Gamewell fire alarm system but no action was taken. An ordinance was passed prohibiting the holding of shows or carnivals within 1000 feet of any school or place of worship. The ordinance takes effect in 30 days.

There is no denying that fact bootlegging is being carried on here and that they vendors of the moonshine are waxing fat through their nefarious trade. The stuff is the rankest kind of poison and is capable of doing more damage than anything turned loose upon an unsuspecting public. And this worst feature of this whole place There is no denying the fact that bootlegging is being carried on here and that the vendors of the moonshine are waxing fat through their nefarious trade. The stuff is the rankest kind of poison and is capable of doing more damage to a man's health than anything turned loose upon an unsuspecting public. And the worst feature of the whole business is that officers are unable to secure a conviction even though they know the identity of the parties engaged in the trade. It is hard to secure evidence to convict in a court of justice and the bootleggers know it. The man who buys the vile stuff is not going to swear to a complaint charging his quondam moonshine friend with a crime. An officer may grab the man with a load of booze under his belt, and may know the gent who sold it, but unless the hilarious hombre will step up and affix his name to a complaint the officer is stumped. And again, let the minion of the law go ahead and arrest his man engaged in the speak-easy game, expecting the victim, upon his solemn promise, to show up as a witness, and lo and behold when the time comes for trial then the witness forgets or refuses to testify, for one reason or another. Such an instance occurred here last week. These bootleggers are foxy and are well versed in rascality and can lead an officer a merry chase. As an inducement to ply their blind-tiger trade the illicit booze merchants get fancy prices for their joy water. Rumor has it that a pint brings $3.50, while a little better grade comes to $5, with plenty of men ready to separate themselves from the price for a few thrills and an awful headache.

It is said the bootleg gentry come from the big city to the north, where no doubt the fire water is made over night. Officers have conficated several consignments coming in on the stages, but it appears that is just about as far as they can get, as further evidence against the guilty party is lacking. These are the conditions locally and so long as the price keeps up no doubt there will be no shortage in the supply. It is recorded in the public prints that the government is turning loose 30,000 special deputies to run down the illegal booze traffic throughout the land, and if local conditions are a criterion to go by there is going to be a merry time chasing the elusive moonshiner to his lair. most progressive young business men.
