LOOKS LIKE REPUBLICAN LANDSLIDE The republicans, according to registration figures, are in the overwhelming majority in California, in the eleventh congressional district, and in Orange county. Figures given out from the office of the secretary of state show that in the state the republican registration is 779,854, compared to 282,440 democrats. Those who decline to state number 143,077. The remainder are registered as follows: Progressive, 6674; socialists, 19,071; prohibitionists, 19,-117; scattering, 2,490. This registration is the largest in the history of the state. Los Angeles county has the largest registration, its total being 354,512. San Francisco is next with a registration of 199,-057. The figures show there is not a single county of the fifty-eight in the state where the democrats outnumber the republicans. In the contest for congressman from the eleventh congressional district, Judge Phil D. Swing of El Centro, who will have the republican nomination without opposition, will have a big advantage in party strength over Hugh Dickson of San Bernardino, who will be the democratic nominee. In the seven counties of the eleventh district there are 70,029 voters registered as republicans, 27,961 as democrats, 153 as progressives, 1847 as socialists, 3312 as prohibitionists, and there are 14,889 who declined to state party affiliation. The total registration for the district is 115,688. The registration by counties follows: Imperial county — republican 5153; democrat 3325; progressive 12; socialist 32; prohibition 173; declining to state 1386; total 10,215. Inyo county — republican 1632; SHELL-TORN STATUE FOR MOUNT RUBIDOUX Figure of Christ from Ruins of Ypres Brought Here A shell-shattered statue of Christ upon the cross is to be placed on the summit of Mount Rubidoux as a memorial to the Riverside men who gave their lives in the world war. Bearing in four places the disfigurements of German guns, it was taken from the ruins of St. Peter's church in Ypres, Belgium. Several weeks ago it was started on its long journey across the Atlantic and was reverently placed aboard a train at Brooklyn and will be in Riverside soon. The figure is eight feet in height and modeled of bronze. It hangs upon a cross more than ten feet high. The head is scarred by a shell mark, the throat having been shot away. For hundreds of years the statue has been an object of veneration to the Belgian peasants who worshipped at St. Peter's church. Impressive ceremonies are being planned. The statue was obtained through the efforts of Frank A. Miller, master of the Mission Inn. FACTS ABOUT THE FLAG During the revolution the flag had 13 stars; in the war of 1812, 15; in the Mexican war, 29; in the Civil war, 35; in the Spanish war, 45; and in the World war, 48. One of the oldest existing flags of the Stars and Stripes design is that which was carried by the North Carolina troops at the battle of Guilford Courthouse, March 15, 1781, and which is now preserved in the rooms of the Masonic grand lodge in Raleigh. The first instance in which the 13 colonies were represented on an emblem was in the flag carried by the DEMAND 100 PER KILL Contrartors Must Fail or Quit Every effort is county officials in tion of citrus trees this year and thorough treatment The inspectors are for a 100 per cent Slip-shod work tractors will meet tion.

CALIFORNIA EGGS Quality has again triumphed in establishing a secure place for California products in the large markets, the California white egg being the latest to achieve this prominence, according to Frank C. Urner of New York, the foremost national authority on egg marketing. White eggs always sell in New York at a premium over brown eggs, and the great majority of eggs produced in California are white. Recently heavy shipments from this state expected to over supply the New York white egg market and reduce or eliminate this premium. Instead, the premium has actually increased due to the high quality maintained by uniform grading and developed by the producers marketing organizations. A BIT OF ADVICE First — Don't Delay.

In such cases the kidneys often need help. Ask your neighbor! Doan's Kidney Pills are especially prepared for kidney trouble. They are recommended by thousands. Can Anaheim residents desire more convincing proof of their effectiveness than the statement of an Anaheim citizen who has used them and willingly testifies to their worth? Mrs. A. Steafather, 415 E. Chartres St., says: "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills for I have used them with good results. My kidneys caused me to suffer with backache and I felt dull and tired out.

Misses Alice and Ruth Pannier gave a farewell party to Miss Edna Hochuli Friday evening. Miss Hochull left the first of the week for Chicago to enter the Sherwood Institute of Music. Until after the Civil war all the official United States flags were made of bunting manufactured abroad. On February 26, 1866, General Benjamin F. Butler presented to congress a flag that was made in his mill at Lowell, Mass., the material for which was grown and manufactured in the United States made by Americans on American machinery. Congress accepted it with a vote of thanks and ordered that no foreign material should ever again be used in making the official United States flags. The American flag was first given the name of "Old Glory" by Captain Stephen Driver, an old seadog of Salem, Mass. In 1831, when admiring friends gave Captain Driver a great flag for his ship, he made a short, but energetic speech, at the close of which he raised his hand toward the banner at the mast's head, and shouted "Old Glory!" Ever afterward people called him Old Glory Driver. One of the last battles of the revolution was over a flag. It was a single-handed fight between a Mrs. Day, keeper of a boarding house in Greenwich street, New York City, and Major Cunningham, the British provost marshal. The British had agreed to evacuate the city at noon on November 25, 1783. About 9 o'clock in the morning Mrs. Day hoisted an American flag in front of her house. Major Cunningham ordered her to take the flag down, and upon her refusing, he undertook to do it himself, and she proceeded to beat him with a broom. She won the battle and the flag remained.

The inspectors are waging a campaign for a 100 per cent kill. Slip-shod work by fumigating contractors will meet with immediate action. A declaration to that effect was made by George W. Sloop of Anaheim, county fumigation inspector. That action may go so far as an order for an offending contractor to quit the business in this county. "We will break up irregular and careless practices, even if it means the elimination of outfits from the field," said Sloop. Within the last two weeks two fumigation contractors have been taken on "on the carpet" at the office of County Horticultural Commissioner E. L. Morris. In each instance, the contractor was told in the plainest possible language that failure on his part to live up to the rules and regulations set by the commissioner's department would mean a cancellation of his fumigation license. There is one item that has caused the inspectors more trouble than any other. That item of work concerns the measurement of the cubic contents under a tent before the dose of hydrocyanic gas, which kills the scale on the orange or lemon tree, is applied. "Each tent under the Woglum system of measurements," said Mr. Sloop, "is plainly marked to show the distance over the tree. The fumigator is instructed to tape the tent. That is, he is required to measure the distance world. Lenine and Trotzky are, as Secretary Colby said, subsidizing the Internationale out of Russia's revenues. These men had their chance to do one of the greatest pieces of work imaginable, and they failed. Russia had for centuries been the victim of misgovernment and oppression. With the overthrow of imperial despotism the people had a right to look for at least some measure of relief. But as any one can see, conditions are worse than they were under the cpar, and the people are still living under a military despotism, even industry—such of it as there is—being organized and run on a purely military basis. Such is Bolshevism. It is not a government, but of conspiracp, a conspiracy not only against the Russians, but against the welfare and safety of mankind." THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY E. C. Stokes, the former governor of New Jersey, who is now president of the Mechanics National bank at Trenton, N. J., a member of the federal reserve system, has written the following letter as his views on the automobile industry: "As a banker, interested in the prosperity of the country and the necessary maintenance and development of an industry that furnishes employment and wages and thus promotes the general welfare of the masses, I beg leave to call your attention to the reported action of some of the federal reserve banks in classing automobiles as non-essentials in the extension of credit. "It might be well to call the attention of the banking fraternity to the importance of the automobile, not only as a factor in the necessary transportation facilities of the country but as a costributor to one of the large-" before the farm bureau directors and cited several instances just recently of cars of manure inspected in various parts of the county which showed 30 to 50 per cent debris and other cases of the moisture content amounting to 76 per cent. Cars have been received dripping heavily with water, under the pretext that such moisture was necessary to keep the manure from burning. A recent shipment of 65 cars was inspected in Orange county by Mr. McPhee, ten cars of whICH he thought might pass as a medium class of manure—the balance was merely debris. McPhee has had occasion to make several arrests lately for violations of the fertilizer law. A committee was appointed to report at the next directors meeting on September 17, a method of inspection or analysis of fertilizers that are shipped into the county. Dr. S. S. Twombly of Fullerton, W. L. York of La Habra, W. M. Belding of Tustin and George McPhee of Santa Ana are members of this committee. The need of a central chemical laboratory established by the farm bureau for the purpose of analysis of questionable fertilizers has been felt for some time among Orange county farmers. A county fertilizer inspector maintained by the county board of supervisors is another suggestion that has been offered. If Orange county takes the lead in demanding a reasonable analysis of orchard fertilizers other counties will follow and all manure dealers and shippers will be inclined to live up to the standard demanded by the farmers. Mr. McPhee stated at the directors meeting that about $700,000 were spent in fertilizers by Orange county farmers per annum and of this amount he thought 25 per cent was wasted in valueless fertilizers. There is one item that has caused the inspectors more trouble than any other. That item of work concerns the measurement of the cubic contents under a tent before the dose of hydrocyanic gas, which kills the scale on the orange or lemon tree, is applied. "Each tent under the Woglum system of measurements," said Mr. Sloop, "is plainly marked to show the distance over the tree. The fumigator is instructed to tape the tent. That is, he is required to measure the distance around the foot of the used portion of the tent, and with that measurement and the figure shown for the measurement over the tree the cubic contents is found by consulting a table. The two fumigators who were on the carpet last week had been found guessing at dosage. They found it a little too much trouble to tape the tent. "Accurate measurements are necessary in order to insure good results in the kill," said Mr. Sloop. "Accuracy is necessary." Deputy Horticultural Commissioner Paddock, whose duties are almost entirely with the citrus work, and a number of inspectors are at work among the fumigators, and each of them is ready to make immediate report of any regularity that he sees. FAILURE OF SOVIET RUSSIA After two years of Bolshevist government the people of Russia, one of the richest countries in the world in natural resources, find themselves in the throes of starvation. There has been abundant time in which to make at least a beginning in the work of reconstruction. Under a decent and honest government, even had it taken no postively helpful action, there would have been some improvement in conditions. But they have grown steadily worse, and today a representative of the Associated Press, who has been traveling through the country from the far east to the Finnish frontier, reports thus: "Everywhere in all this trip from one end of Russia to the other cry for food and clothing was heard. It was voiced by the old Russian peasant type at the Chinese frontier. It was heard again through the heart of Russia, where the crews of locomotives were clad in ragged garments, with sandal-like shoes braided from the bark of trees. As they stoked their engines they begged for black bread from the little group of foreign re- the general welfare of the masses, I beg leave to call your attention to the reported action of some of the federal reserve banks in classing automobiles as non-essentials in the extension of credit. "It might be well to call the attention of the banking fraternity to the importance of the automobile, not only as a factor in the necessary transportation facilities of the country but as a costributor to one of the largest of our industries and a promotor of the happiness and morals of our people. "It is a mooted question whether the automobile industry stands second or third in the country. If all the parts in connection therewith are included, it ranks second. What individual banker has a right to say, therefore, that an industry which by the common judgment of the people of this country has attained such proportions in our industrial life is a non-essential? Burke said you cannot indict a whole people. No banking fraternity or government has a right to say that an industry of such a size as the automobile industry, based upon the needs and requirements of the public, is unnecessary and therefore unworthy of credit. "The automobile is of immense value to the nation as a promoter of the spirit of contentment and as an effective suppressor of the spirit of unrest. No owner of an automobile, even though it be a pleasure car, who is able to enjoy its use for his family or his friends, is likely to become a Bolshevist or a Communist. He favors the continuation of things as they are, because he has a means of happiness in his own possession and therefore is against any upheaval of the present social order. "Next to the church, there is no factor in American life that does so much for the morals of the public as does the automobile. Formerly the pleasures of life divided the family. The father had one avenue of recreation, the mother another, the children another. Today our roadsides are crowded with the family picnic parties, who carry their lunches with them and who take their outing as a unit. Any device that brings the family together as a unit in their pursuit of pleasure is a promoter of good morals and yields a beneficial influence that makes for the good of American civilization. If every family in the land Everywhere in all this trip from one end of Russia to the other cry for food and clothing was heard. It was voiced by the old Russian peasant type at the Chinese frontier. It was heard again through the heart of Russia, where the crews of locomotives were clad in ragged garments, with sandal-like shoes braided from the bark of trees. As they stoked their engines they begged for black bread from the little group of foreign refugees who were passengers on the train being sent from Moscow to the Finnish frontier. The appeal for the necessities of living is universal from the people, except from the extra-rationed class of higher military and civil government authorities." What little food there is is being taken for the army, and this is true also of the limited output of the few factories that are running. In order to bring relief to the suffering people of the cities, the government has stripped the farming regions, including the whole of Siberia, of their stocks of food. As a result of this policing farmers are producing no more than is needed to supply their own wants, and are beginning to resist the government's attempts to confiscate food. That is, as far as it goes, a hopeful sign. But the point that is now desired to make is that two years of Bolshevist government, under which it was declared that something like the millennium would be realized, has brought more than a hundred million people to almost absolute destitution, and practically destroyed society. Yet the nem now in control, instead of trying to do something to relieve the people, are fighting a war of conquest and propaganda, in Poland, squandering the substance of the Russians in an effort to Bolshevize the father had one avenue of recreation, the mother another, the children another. Today our roadsides are crowded with the family picnic parties, who carry their lunches with them and who take their outing as a unit. Any device that brings the family together as a unit in their pursuit of pleasure is a promoter of good morals and yields a beneficial influence that makes for the good of American civilization. If every family in the land possessed an automobile, family ties would be closer and many of the problems of social unrest would go happily solved. The banker who says that a device of this kind is a non-essential, possesses a narrow vision and fails to see the far-reaching influence it has for good. The automobile is one of the country's best ministers and best preachers." The above expresses the attitude of a great many of the bankers of the country. REFORM IN FERTILIZERS NEEDED At the monthly directors meeting of the Orange county farm bureau last Friday, considerable discussion was engaged in the reports from various directors concerning fertilizer frauds which were perpetrated upon the orchardist and farmer. Dr. S. S. Twombly, director from Fullerton, opened the discussion by enumerating many cases coming under his observation from time to time where carloads of so-called barnyard manure had been shipped into his district and rejected. In these cases, gravel, sand, dirt, excessive water and other foreign material had been mixed with the manure to give it false weight. George McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, appeared be- LAST DAY FOR REINSTATEMENT Ex-service men who were discharged in February, 1919, have until the last day of August to reinstate their war risk (term) insurance, without undergoing a medical examination. After that date, they can reinstate provided they take the physical examination. Men discharged after February, 1919, still have time for reinstatement without examination, until the period of 18 months from date of discharge has expired.
