PALMER CALLED FIGHTING QUAKER Attorney General Palmer, the Fighting Quaker. Chief Contender for Democratic Honors Has Headquarters in Full Blast at San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.—About the breeziest, liveliest, "peppiest" place in San Francisco this week is the headquarters of the group of people who are managing the campaign of Attorney General Mitchell Palmer for the Democratic nomination for President. If confidence and optimism were a Original Palmer Man. While McCormick is a busy bee around Palmer headquarters, the busiest is Charles C. Carlin, of Virginia, the "Original Palmer Man." Carlin used to serve in Congress with Palmer, and in nineteen-nine, soon after the young "Fighting Quaker" member from Pennsylvania arrived in the National House, Carlin picked him for President some day. He has never stopped talking that way, so this spring when the Palmer Campaign Committee was organized by a dozen friends of the Attorney General, he was the logical choice for chairman. That's his job at the convention, and if Palmer is nominated, he's the fellow who'll get the credit for it.

Attorney General Palmer, the Fighting Quaker. Chief Contender for Democratic Honors Has Headquarters in Full Blast at San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.—About the breeziest, liveliest, "peppiest" place in San Francisco this week is the headquarters of the group of people who are managing the campaign of Attorney General Mitchell Palmer for the Democratic nomination for President. If confidence and optimism were a single delegate the Palmer men have got the whole convention, for they go about with broad smiles and cheer, their headquarters breathe success and they apparently haven't an enemy in San Francisco or a doubt that their man is going over. Women Looked After. And they have not overlooked the women. In addition to a big bunch of old timers among the male convention powers, they have made their tent headquarters for women delegates and visitors, who are flocking to partake of their hospitality. Perhaps the chief reason for this is the magnificent sun parlor roof-garden which they, in partnership with the big bunch of Pennsylvania Palmer rooters, have thrown open to women, both delegates and visitors. This occupies the entire roof of the Whitcomb hotel, near the convention hall, and is fitted up with delightful, comfortable wicker chairs and lounges, palms, rest rooms, desks, writing materials and a soft-stringed orchestra which soothes the tired frown from the brows of weary officials and sight-seers. In this great, quiet, restful place the two other reasons for the success of the Palmer headquarters for women may be found. They are Mrs. Annette Adams and Mrs. Halsey W. Wilson. The former needs no introduction to the thousands of Californians who flock to the peaceful roof, overlooking the city and bay. She is now United States District Attorney of San Francisco, but will soon go to Washington to be sworn in as Assistant Attorney General of the United States, the highest Federal office ever given a woman, and to which she has just been appointed by her chief, Attorney General Palmer. (It is no wonder that Mrs. Adams is enthusiastic about Palmer, and feels that all women should be, too.) Veteran Suff on Job. The other attraction is Mrs. Wilson, who, while not so well known generally in California, is quite as well known among progressive women of all parties. For many years Mrs. Wilson was secretary of the National Women's Suffrage Association. No woman in America has been more effectively active in putting over women's suffrage. Along with this it seems worth while to notice what part the agriculturist should play in the re-crystallization of society until we have bridged over the gap between what was in the past and what is to come in the future, until we have really made safe the civilization which we are now in, and make it livable in the future. I wish to call attention to the fact that in this problem agriculture is the first and fundamental foundation and without agriculture it is absolutely impossible to proceed in any development. It is as fundamental as the base on the foundation of your building. One reason for the high tension in the industrial centers is that it is felt that the industrial centers have been discriminated against at the expense of the agriculturist and the agriculturist has been escaping some of the burdens that have been placed on the industrial people. They are anxious to shift the burden. It seems quite uniform that whoever is suspected of profiteering points in all directions and says: "There is your man." In this case all fingers are pointing to the agriculturist for most of the bills for the high cost of things. If this is true we are asked to bear our just proportion of the burden. If it isn't true these people will not correct the mis-information because they have quite an audience who think we are profiteers. Some people think California is a place where nobody works. They think all a man has to do to farm is to get a piece of land, buy, rent, or lease it, get a rocking chair so that he can sit on the front porch and smoke in comfort and get a bookkeeper to count the profits. That isn't an overdrawn statement because the stories of what you can do in any part of California are believed by many people in the cast and they believe that the agriculturists are profiteers. These things spell grave danger to the agriculturist. There are many indications of that. Anyone in the service didn't have to see all of a submarine to know that it was in sight. If they saw the periscope they knew that there was a submarine coming. Just as the periscope meant danger to a ship so there have been things plainly descernable to the people that have spelled danger to the agriculturist. For instance, the Nolan bill. The Nolan bill was introduced by a man elect- For the last seven has been this argument and capital until westward as agrigate left affairs to the dream of our forefathers deserted the ship who didn't know me time we got back them how to run dreams that are tion of Independence. PLAN IMPROVEMENT New Entrance, Grants, Suggestions Tentative plans of of county parks have been made by formerly of Santa ecape architect of A A new entrance, custodian's house, larger areas to thieon, the planting shrubbery—these things that Miss Yer her plans for the wonderful oak grores, willow-line hills that go to man of the park. Some of the thie wants to have done soon, some year and others in It can't be all done. Miss Yoch has had that the park's chic its natural beauty. It is proposed that trance start at thie rise a few rods entrance, so that thie park will drive gnarled giant of a side of the road. this road will skirt and pass by oaks; tering the park thieural trees; rather present driveway; foreign black acacia finds on city street. In order to secure a deed will be so company, as thie ning between thie road that must be Palmer. (It is no wonder that Mrs. Adams is enthusiastic about Palmer, and feels that all women should be, too.) Veteran Suff on Job. The other attraction is Mrs. Wilson, who, while not so well known generally in California, is quite as well known among progressive women of all parties. For many years Mrs. Wilson was secretary of the National Women's Suffrage Association. No woman in America has been more effectively active in putting over women's suffrage. She is one of the veterans in that historic battle, but early this spring she voluntarily left the suffrage work—now nearly completed—and joined the Palmer forces, because she felt that through such a President and a Democratic Congress the best and most progressive achievements on the part of American women could be obtained. Men at St. Francis. In the meantime, the men of the Palmer camp are busy at the St. Francis, where they have a string of rooms on the second floor and a general reception room on the first floor. The best known national figure in their headquarters is Vance C. McCormick of Harrisburg, Penn., the aggressive and progressive young Democrat whom President Wilson selected to be chairman of the National Committee in nineteen-sixteen, and who had the wisdom to appeal to the progressive men and women of the west and far west in that stirring battle, in which California decided the issue. McCormick and Palmer were both delegates to the Baltimore convention that nominated President Wilson in nineteen-twelve, when Palmer was the Wilson floor leader. They have both fought shoulder to shoulder with the President in putting through the Wilson program of legislation the past eight years, and McCormick now has his coat off doing all in his power to do for Palmer what he did for Wilson—make him President of the United States. The argument written by an organization listed on which are many California firms selling agricultural products, said that the burden of taxation has been unjustly and unfairly put on manufacturing and industrial centers and the place to put it is on the farmers. They say if you put it more on manufacturing it places it more on the people. The only class you can fasten that on, who can't pass it on is the farmer. The Nolan bill is that you pay county, state and municipal taxes and after those are paid, you pay for good measure one per cent on everything you own in land values over ten thousand dollars. Another thing which affects California producers is a law which has been passed upon by the federal court in West Virginia which practically makes all forms of cooperative buying and selling in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. The industrial and manufacturing centers feel that they have been unjustly burdened and carrying the taxes of the world and that the agriculturist should now do what they deem is just for him to do. The agriculturists as a class have had nobody to speak for them. One of the great difficulties in representation in the state and nation is that nobody has been the agriculturist. There are many indications of that. Anyone in the service didn't have to see all of a submarine to know that it was in sight. If they saw the periscope they knew that there was a submarine coming. Just as the periscope meant danger to a ship so there have been things plainly descrinkable to the people that have spelled danger to the agriculturist. For instance, the Nolan bill. The Nolan bill was introduced by a man elected by the labor unions, it was written by the attorney for the Federation of Labor. The argument written by an organization listed on which are many California firms selling agricultural products, said that the burden of taxation has been unjustly and unfairly put on manufacturing and industrial centers and the place to put it is on the farmers. They say if you put it more on manufacturing it places it more on the people. The only class you can fasten that on, who can't pass it on is the farmer.

Several months ago the board of supervisors employed tree surgeons to patch some of the oaks that were in the greatest danger as the result of decay. Cavities were cleaned out and disinfected, the principle being somewhat the same used by a dentist in cleaning out and disinfecting a tooth before filling it. The cavities in the trees have been filled with cement. In time, the surface of the tree will close over the cement, unless the fill is too great. This same kind of work is to be continued until all of the oaks in the park are successfully treated and given a chance for prolonged life. Two important steps in the betterment of the park are in contemplation. One of these is for making a connection with the Edison company lines. The county has a small lighting plant at the park, but it has proven expensive for the reason that it seems im- For the last seventy-five years there has been this argument between labor and capital until we have retreated westward as agriculturists and we have left affairs to those who haven't the dream of our forefathers. We have deserted the ship of state to a crew who didn't know navigation until it is time we got back on deck and show them how to run the ship and dream dreams that are true to the Declaration of Independence. PLAN IMPROVEMENTS AT COUNTY PARK New Entrance, Greater Area for Picnics, Suggested by Miss Yoch Tentative plans for the improvement of the county park along natural lines have been made by Miss Florence Yoch formerly of Santa Ana, now a landscape architect of Los Angeles. A new entrance, the moving of the custodian's house, the opening up of larger areas to those seeking recreation, the planting of native trees and shrubbery—these are but a few of the things that Miss Yoch has outlined in her plans for the development of the wonderful oak grove, scattered sycamores, willow-lined creek, and foothills that go to make up the 160 acres of the park. Some of the things that Miss Yoch wants to have done at the park are to be done soon, some during the next year and others in the next few years. It can't be all done at once. Miss Yoch has had in mind the fact that the park's chief attractiveness is its natural beauty. It is proposed to have the new entrance start at the foot of the small rise a few rods west of the present entrance, so that one driving out of the park will drive directly toward the gnarled giant of an oak on the north side of the road. Entering the park, this road will skirt a clump of willows, and pass by oaks, the visitor thus entering the park through native and natural trees, rather than through the present driveway, which is lined with foreign black acacia trees, such as one finds on city streets. In order to secure the new entrance, a deed will be sought from the Irvine company, as there is an angle running between the park fence and the road that must be crossed. It is Miss cement, unless the fill is too great. This same kind of work is to be continued until all of the oaks in the park are successfully treated and given a chance for prolonged life. Two important steps in the betterment of the park are in contemplation. One of these is for making a connection with the Edison company lines. The county has a small lighting plant at the park, but it has proven expensive for the reason that it seems impossible to secure a custodian who is also an electrician. County Purchasing Agent Slabaugh has been figuring with the Edison company for building a line to the park. Another needed improvement in contemplation is a better water system. A conference has been held between Miss Yoch, members of the board of supervisors and County Surveyor McBride, with the result that some of the work is to be done at once. R.C. Northcross, who has been with the county forestry department, has been put in charge of the work to carry out the plans submitted by Miss Yoch. The county authorities realize that the county park has become exceedingly popular with the public, and that every effort must be made to increase the area available for gatherings. Last year a lot of underbrush was cleared away. Several times the present picnic area will become available. STATE MARKET BILL "Seventy per cent of the dollar goes to the parasites between the producer and the consumer," declared State Senator William E. Brown, father of the state commission market bill, addressing a mass meeting in Los Angeles. "The high cost of living is caused by food that is shut out of our markets," added Senator Brown. "One million three hundred thousand tons of onions were plowed under this year to keep up the price. Carloads of lettuce were also turned under the soil so that the profiteers could name their own prices for that commodity. Whole orchards of fruit are bought up by profiteers and never picked. In San Francisco the milk trust has built a wall around that city as thick as the wall of China." Asserting that the proposed state market act will open a channel be- City of Anaheim, State of California, a meeting of the stockholders of said corporation is hereby called for and will be held at the office of said corporation at No. 251 North Lemon Street, in said City of Anaheim (said place of meeting being at the principal place of business of said corporation and at the building where the board of directors usually meet), on Tuesday, the 7th day of September, 1920, at 8 o'clock p.m. of that day, for the purpose of considering and acting upon the proposition to increase the capital stock of said corporation from five hundred thousand dollars divided into five thousand shares of the par value of one hundred dollars each, to one million dollars divided into ten thousand shares of the par value of one hundred dollars each. The amount to which it is proposed to increase the capital stock is one million dollars. By order of the board of directors. Dated June 7, 1920. FRED A.

In order to secure the new entrance, a deed will be sought from the Irvine company, as there is an angle running between the park fence and the road that must be crossed. It is Miss Yoch's plan to plant shrubbery along the driveway, using native shrubs for that purpose. In asking that the custodian's residence be moved Miss Yoch plans to open up for outings the beautiful oaks at the rear of the residence. At present, those fine trees might as well not be in the park, so far as picnics are concerned. They are an exceedingly picturesque lot of trees, and among them are a couple of "freak" oaks, showing instances of natural grafting, great limbs having grown together in fantastic manner. The county owns a small area on the north side of the road on the bank of the creek. Black walnuts are now growing there. It is suggested by Miss Yoch that the custodian's residence be placed there. A clearing out of underbrush, with a view to making every beauty spot available for a picnic gathering, either large or small, is contemplated. The planting of thousands of gooseberry bushes to bank a road, the planting of clumps of attilja popples where they will fill in a dry sandy spot, the planting of oaks to come on and grow into big oaks, more trees, real oaks and sycamores, and not imported varieties of any kind—these are some of the things contemplated in Miss Yoch's scheme of betterment. The preservation of the big oaks were plowed under this year to keep up the price. Carloads of lettuce were also turned under the soil so that the profiteers could name their own prices for that commodity. Whole orchards of fruit are bought up by profiteers and never picked. In San Francisco the milk trust has built a wall around that city as thick as the wall of China." Asserting that the proposed state market act will open a channel between the producer and the consumer, Senator Brown declared: "The state market will be an answer to the high cost of living. It will be conducted as nonpolitical, nonsectarian, nonpartisan organizatio. The state label will assure quality and fair price. It doesn't pay to raise sheep for the wolves. "The public is squeezed between combinations of capital and labor. It is the patriotic duty of every citizen to swat the profiteer and harpoon the food shark. It is the common people's fight, for when the laboring man gets a raise in pay the profiteer pounces upon him and takes his money. The farmers who conquer deserts, like Imperial valley, and produce food are heroes and should receive decent prices for their products." Other speakers were Marshall Stimson and Gertrude Beebe. A woman in the audience from Imperial valley told how she raised sheep in the valley at 8 cents a pound and when she wanted a leg of mutton in Los Angeles she was compelled to pay 50 cents a pound for it. It was declared at the meeting that the petition to put the market bill on the ballot in November will have many thousand more signers than necessary. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Producers and Consumer League, payable in advance. ITS A GUSHER After being sanded up for several hours, Kraemer well No. 6 near Placentia, exploded Thursday night with a roar, partially wrecking the derrick and putting out all the lights in the boiler room and on the derrick, the derrick later being destroyed by fire when it became ignited due to broken electric light wires. Indications are that No. 6 will be the biggest producing well in northern Orange county field. When the well "let go" it belched out rock and boulders for several minutes, doing considerable damage to the derrick and adjacent buildings, the derrick then being entirely destroyed by fire. Kramer No. 6 is one of the two wells which were brought in on the Kraemer lease Wednesday of last week, the other well being known as No. 7. No. 7 was producing at the rate of 2500 barrels. Expert oil men who witnessed the actions of No. 6 predict that this well will be the greatest producer in the Orange county field. They expect No. 6 to produce around 6000 barrels of oil daily once it is brought under control.
