"The spoils system is beginning to get in its inning at Washington," wails the Columbia (S. C.) Record. To create a few hundred thousand new jobs and fill them with deserving Democrats is the "merit system,"—to appoint an occasional Republican to a federal office is the "spoils system," in the view of a hard boiled Democratic organ in a state where a Republican who even tries to vote is in danger of tar and feathers. Two hundred Anaheim Elks are expected to be in the great parade at Los Angeles today, and the Anaheim Municipal band will lead them. Dozens of bands will be in the line, but none will make better music than ours. There will be hundreds of lodges in the long procession, but none will be more imposing than No. 1345. No doubt the boys will bring a lot of eastern visitors down to show them what a real live town looks like.

After having been arrested twice in Los Angeles on their wedding day and paying a fine because they said they were from Orange county, Mr. and Mrs. Julian Allec returned to Placentia Friday from their honeymoon trip to Yosemite valley, having had no more serious mishaps than one blowout on the entire trip. The couple spent a week at Camp Curry, visited Bridalvell falls, Inspiration Point, Glacier Point, and Mariposa grove, and carried on a conversation in Spanish with the aged Indian woman, Yosemite Lucy, who is now 119 years old.

Both wish to thank their many friends for kindness shown them during their jail terms. They have received scores of letters commending their stand, and patients have visited them almost daily. Charles Peltzer recently returned from Reno county, Kansas, his former home. He makes an annual pilgrimage to the Sunflower state to look after his extensive ranch. This year only 280 acres of wheat was grown on his ranch, but the yield is splendid, the average being 30 or 35 bushels per-acre. Mr. Peltzer said one of the interesting spectacles he witnessed was a number of growers hauling last year's wheat crop at $1.15 per bushel, the same wheat they had refused $2.75 for the previous year. The farmers, it appears, entered into a combination and signed an agreement to hold their wheat until they were offered three dollars a bushel for it. Bids were opened Thursday for the construction of the new Zion Lutheran church which is to be located at the corner of Emily and Chartres streets. Of four bids submitted, the lowest came from A. H. Pibel. His was for $44,016. It was stated that the congregation of the church numbering about 250, has already subscribed $25,000. There are many prominent and prosperous members among the congregation and no trouble is expected in raising the remainder. The new church is to be a combination of gothic and mission style of architecture and 60 by 100 feet in dimensions. The main auditorium will have a seating capacity of 650. There will be fifteen other rooms with a basement. A large pipe organ will also be a feature.

Victor Schumacher, who lives in Fullerton, but spends a considerable portion of his time in Anaheim, was in the city Monday greeting old friends. The captain is one of the old timers of this neighborhood, having come here in 1887. At the time of his first visit here he was captain of police in Chicago, and his prospect of soon becoming chief of the Windy City' police force was very bright. But a two months' leave of absence caused his undoing as a peace officer. He came to California to spend his vacation, fell in love with the county, purchased a ten-acre ranch on East Commonwealth avenue, resigned his job as captain and his future prospects of being head of the police department, and became an enthusiastic Californian. He made his ranch one of the show places of this neighborhood, but sold it four years ago and moved to Fullerton.
