VOLUME L.
MEDICINE SHOW
MUST PAY ITS LICENSE
SUPERIOR COURT DECIDES THAT THE ORANGE PROHIBITIVE ORDINANCE IS VALID
Dr. Berry, Formerly of Anaheim, Under Arrest in Our Sister City for Refusal to Pay $25 Per Day—City of Orange Sets an Example That Others Might Follow—Trustees Give Solar Plexus Blow to Medicine Shows.
Everybody in Anaheim concedes that the city of Orange is a nice town and that it has six thousand nice people within its boundary limits, but nobody believes it measures up with this city in the matter of progress, yet they occasionally do things over there that might be emulated with profit by this, as well as other cities. For instance, while the people of Anaheim were wrangling over the site for a new city hall, the people of Orange, without any fuss or feathers, quietly voted bonds for an $85,000 structure and built it been increased because of Dr. Berry's shows."
Dr. Berry gave a lecture Wednesday evening in defiance of the ordinance requiring him to pay a license of $25. He was arrested and refused to give bail, preferring to remain in the custody of the arresting officer in order that he might obtain a writ of habeas corpus. The writ was granted and served on the arresting officer.
About three weeks ago Dr. Berry brought a charge of disturbing the peace against a conductor for the Pacific Electric railway. He accused the conductor of inducing several boys to bombard his medicine show with eggs, some of which were not fresh.
The case was tried in the justice court at Orange and the conductor was released at the conclusion of the trial. The complaining witness could not prove that the defendant was the man who coaxed the boys to bombard his tent.
Dr. Berry, we believe, is a reputable physician, licensed by the state medical board, and competent to practice medicine in California, but his method of securing patients is a violation of the ethics of the profession, and does not appeal to the good sense of a majority of the people. It is the custom of the traveling doctor to first attract an audience by giving a cheap vaudeville performance, then with his persuasive tongue convince his auditors that they are afflicted with all the illness being $45,000.
Each of the three damage suits filed inern Pacific railroad received in an accident January 19, last year, damages by the super Angeles last week amounting to $45,000.
Miss Margaret B. Mr. and Mrs. H. E. street in this city, oloously injured, sued was awarded $15,000.
the city of Orange is a nice town and that it has six thousand nice people within its boundary limits, but nobody believes it measures up with this city in the matter of progress, yet they occasionally do things over there that might be emulated with profit by this, as well as other cities. For instance, while the people of Anaheim were wrangling over the site for a new city hall, the people of Orange, without any fuss or feathers, quietly voted bonds for an $85,000 structure and built it—and they didn’t quarrel over what particular piece of ground it should be located on.
A short time ago the city trustees of Orange passed an ordinance taxing traveling medicine shows $25 per day, and the superior court has just held that the ordinance is valid and must stand. Dr. J. L. Berry, who conducted a show at the corner of Broadway and Lemon streets for many months and practiced his profession at the same time, moved his outfit to Orange after presumably healing all the sick in this city, and the ordinance was adopted for his benefit. He refused to pay, was arrested, and carried the matter into the superior court.
Judge Williams held that the ordinance was valid and ordered Dr. Berry remanded to the custody of the officer who arrested him, refusing to pay the license. Judge Williams told D. G. Wettlin, attorney for Dr. Berry, that he had the right of appeal to the appellate court.
Both Wettlin and F. L. Coburn, city attorney for Orange, presented lengthy arguments in the case, which came up in habeas corpus proceedings. Wettlin contended that the license fixed by the Orange trustees was unjust and unreasonable and discriminatory to physicians. He also declared that in passing such an ordinance the trustees did not show wherein an emergency existed.
"I have attended his shows myself and can say that they are highly entertaining and enlightening."
"Do you care to be sworn on that?" asked Attorney Coburn.
"Why single out the doctor?" continued Wettlin. "There is no reason for making a distinction. He is conducting his shows in an orderly manner and on private property—not on the open streets."
Wettlin put Dr. Berry on the stand and in answer to questions Dr. Berry said that he had been a practicing physician, licensed by the state medical board, and competent to practice medicine in California, but his method of securing patients is a violation of the ethics of the profession, and does not appeal to the good sense of a majority of the people. It is the custom of the travelling doctor to first attract an audience by giving a cheap vaudeville performance, then with his persuasive tongue convince his auditors that they are afflicted with all the ill that flesh is heir to, and insinuate that he can eradicate their diseases and make them whole. The man who stands on a platform and sells alleged medicine indiscriminately to the public ought to be suppressed. Some years ago a traveling medicine show man did a land office business in Anaheim for several weeks. He sold thousands of dollars 'worth of stuff to the gullable public. One of his concoctions was a catarrh remedy which he guaranteed to give results or make itself felt at the afflicted spot immediately, or money refunded. It reached the spot alright, as an analysis of it showed, that it was simply table salt ground into a fine powder. No doubt his other remedies were of a like character. It was said that most of them were composed of drugs that could be purchased at any drug store for one-fourth of the sum he charged.
Another fakir who should be suppressed with a stern hand is the divine healer, or faith healer. This man's method of robbing the sick and afflicted borders on blasphemy as he claims to possess the power of the diety, who alone can heal by such methods. We cannot understand why these people are permitted to ply their fraudulent trade and deceive the people.
When a person tells you of a medicine, compounded from a secret recipe handed down by some ignorant aborigine, vooodoo doctor or remote encensor, you may know that it is a fake, because modern medical research would soon discover its secret and make use of it if it had any value.
Don't let some fake medicine man convince you that you are sick and need his services, but if you are sick don't let him fool you into believing that he has some secret remedy, unknown to the reputable medical profession, that will cure you, and above all, don't believe that any human being has the power to heal you by laying his dirty grasping paws on you.

"Do you care to be sworn on that?" asked Attorney Coburn.
"Why single out the doctor?" continued Wettlin. "There is no reason for making a distinction. He is conducting his shows in an orderly manner and on private property—not on the open streets."
Wettlin put Dr. Berry on the stand and in answer to question Dr. Berry said that he had been a practicing physician since 1873. He came to Orange, he said, in the early part of June, and paid the regular license fee to practice in that city. Dr. Berry said that he conducted his shows in Anaheim for nine months before going to Orange. He said he also practiced in Santa Ana.
Attorney Coburn read the emergency ordinance passed by the Orange trustees. He contended that it was not unreasonable, oppressive toward physicians or that its restrictions were unfair. He cited ordinances of a similar nature that had been drafted by various cities and supervisors.
Judge Williams held that where great profits are derived, even indirectly, from such shows as Dr. Berry is conducting a city is warranted in applying a heavy license.
"The whole thing is a question of discrimination," said Judge Williams. "The calling together of great crowds for public exhibitions must be taken into consideration. I believe that city trustees have the right to fix any license they may see fit where such conditions exist.
"When the crowds expand there is a demand for more police protection and regulation. Pickpocket have a chance in such crowds and, of course, they bear watching. There has been no evidence here to show, however, that the city police force of Orange has make use of it if it had any value.
Don't let some fake medicine man convince you that you are sick and need his services, but if you are sick don't let him fool you into believing that he has some secret remedy, unknown to the reputable medical profession, that will cure you, and above all, don't believe that any human being has the power to heal you by laying his dirty grasping paws on you."

HEAVY INCREASE IN ARRESTS DURING YEAR
Records Show 514 More In County Past Year Over Previous Year
Tabulated figures taken from the official records in the district attorney's office show that there were 514 more arrests recorded for the fiscal year ending July 30, 1921, than for the fiscal year of 1920.
This would indicate that criminal and misdemeanor offenses are on the increase, but figures covering a period of six years back show a fluctuation in crime, alternating from year to year.
Statistics compiled by Deputy Sheriff J. M. Gunnett show there were 1441 arrests recorded in the district attorney's office for the fiscal year ending July 30, last, while there were but 927 for the previous fiscal year.
The largest number of arrests were made in the fiscal year ending July 30, 1918, the total being 1899. The fiscal year of 1916 was a close second, with 1653 arrests.
A large majority of arrests made each year were for violations of the motor vehicle law, the total for the six years being 5641. Miscellaneous offense for the same period registered 2361. Total arrests for the six years were 8586.
Other comparative totals were as follows: For drunkenness, 8; driving more or less, who had been de-
LAWRIE'S PUMP IS A PUBLIC UTILITY
MAN WHO HAS BEEN SUPPLYING WATER TO SWAN TRACT PEOPLE CAN'T STOP
Commissioner Benedict Hears Testimony of Indignant Northsiders at City Hall Friday—Owner of Plant Says He is Unable to Put Pump in Working Order and Continue the Business, but is Informed Commission Will Allow Him Better Rate.
W. S. B. Lawrie's pump on the Swan tract in the Sonoratown region, just north of the city limits, is a public utility plant, it seems, although he was not aware of it until last Friday. Lawrie supposed his pump was an individual and independent piece of property, and that if he refused to use it for the accommodation of his neighbor, he had a legal right to do so. Therefore, when the pump broke down some weeks ago, and the forty families, more or less, who had been de-
FREE LABOR BUREAU
NOW IN OPERATION
Do you need help? Mr. Farmer or anybody else—telephone Santa Ana J. F. Jackson has already started to put the jobless man in the manless job. You will find the newly organized Orange County Farm Labor association at 404 1-2 East Fourth street, Santa Ana.
It is a free labor bureau organized for the mutual benefit of the laborer and the farmer.
The laborer is not charged a fee and he will be given fair treatment. A need has long been felt for a reliable source of labor by both employees and employers.
A large majority of arrests made each year were for violations of the motor vehicle law, the total for the six years being 5641. Miscellaneous offense for the same period registered 2361. Total arrests for the six years were 8586.
Other comparative totals were as follows: For drunkenness, 8; driving while drunk, 97; selling liquor, 214; insane, 215; vagrancy, 253.
The period covered in the statistical record represents the time in which C. E. Jackson has held the office of sheriff. It was pointed out that the large number of arrests is due to the spirit of co-operation between the sheriff's office and the district attorney's office.
Comparatively few complaints have been issued in vain. In other words, about 98 per cent of the offenders have been apprehended, and in the majority of cases they have been prosecuted and convicted. Credit is given both the district attorney's office and the sheriff's office in this connection.
The statistical report was compiled at the request of S. T. Montgomery, southern California superintendent for the California Anti-Saloon league. In a letter to Sheriff C. E. Jackson, Montgomery stated that similar reports are being compiled in every state in the union.
Certain interests, Montgomery says, have tried through their propaganda to make the impression that the country is in a tremendously big crime wave.
Sheriff Jackson detailed Deputy Sheriff Gunnett to compile the statistical report. Gunnett has devoted all of his spare time to the work for the past two weeks.
Since the advent of prohibition there has been a decrease in the number of arrests on charges of drunkenness but no striking change in the number of arrests on charges of driving automobile while intoxicated.
STRIKING FRUIT PACKERS
STILL BELLIGERENT
Orange Union Women Object to School Girl Labor
"If the managers of the packing houses think they can work school girls until school opens and that they tract in the Sonoratown region, just north of the city limits, is a public utility plant, it seems, although he was not aware of it until last Friday. Lawrie supposed his pump was an individual and independent piece of property, and that if he refused to use it for the accommodation of his neighbor, he had a legal right to do so. Therefore, when the pump broke down some weeks ago, and the forty families, more or less, who had been depending upon it for their water supply, unanimously and promptly registered a kick because he didn't repair it and start the water to flowing again, he was not greatly worried.
Mr. Lawrie declared that he was not financially able to make the costly repairs, and furthermore, his customers were mostly Mexicans and his revenue from the water sold was so uncertain and inadequate that he could only operate the pump at a loss, therefore, he declined to repair it. But the water users, headed by Mrs. Frances Morris, woh owns a store in that region, first appealed to the city of Anaheim for help, and then made a complaint to the railroad commission. City Manager Steward ran a main across to the drouth stricken region, for the purpose of giving the inhabitants temporary relief, and on Friday, Commissioner H. Stanley Benedict came down and heard evidence in the case at the city hall. Many witnesses appeared before the commission, and the fact was established that the pump had been supplying water to the people for the past ten years, that it was their sole dependence for water, therefore, it had become a public utility. Mr. Lawrie's rates, however, were not uniform, as the water was not metered, and people were not charged according to the amount consumed. Mr. Lawrie testified before Mr. Benedict that he was not able to repair the pump; furthermore, the revenues from the water were so small that he would lose money by operating it, but Mr. Benedict stated that the railroad commission would fix a rate large enough to permit him to borrow money to put the pump in working order. Mr. Lawrie, therefore, finds himself the owner of a public utility, and like many other men similarly situated, he is compelled to carry on although he runs it at a financial loss to himself.

PATGNT WALNUT PICKER
Enter P. V. Stump, of Hawthorne, a trapper.
Not a trapper of wild animals, but nothing more wild than the gentle English walnut.
Stump, who is employed upon the ranch of Dan Minter, two miles west of Santa Ana, on West Fifth street, has invented a device that accelerates walnut picking to a marked degree.
He was more than two years getting the picker developed. He demonstrated the device upon the floor, and the picker picked up the walnuts from the floor as silk as a whistle.
The machine will pick up from one to six walnuts at one fell swoop.
Stump hasn't applied to ra patent yet. He will, however, provide investigation show that walnut growers want his device. The investigation is being made.
STRIKING FRUIT PACKERS STILL BELLIGERENT
Orange Union Women Object to School Girl Labor
"If the managers of the packing houses think they can work school girls until school opens and that they can call on members of our union to go back to work, they are very liable to find themselves fooled in their calculations."
This was the statement of Mrs. Lila King. Orange secretary of the fruit workers' union organized at Orange following the walkout of packers there a few weeks ago.
Mrs. King stated that a number of school girls were working in the packing house before the strike, and that their number has been increased since the strike.
She declared that the managers would take the strikers back as vacancies occurred, but that employees would not be discharged in order to make places for the strikers. Discussing this situation, she then made the statement relative to the union's attitude toward the manager employing school girls until such time as the schools reopen.
The matter of members of the union going back to work to fill the positions of school girls when they have to resume their studies at the opening of the fall term will come up for discussion at a meeting of the union scheduled to be held at Barger's hall, Orange.
Mrs. King asserted that she could not say whether members were returning to work in the packing houses at this time, but that she assumed some were again at work.
dict stated that the railroad commission would fix a rate large enough to permit him to borrow money to put the pump in working order. Mr. Lawrie, therefore, finds himself the owner of a public utility, and like many other men similarly situated, he is compelled to carry on although he runs it at a financial loss to himself.
A girl of twenty intends to marry a handsome, rich man, but at thirty she often hopes she still may be able to marry a man.
COUNTY NOT LISTED IN PLAN TO COMBINE
According to a dispatch from Sacramento, consolidation of the offices of horticultural commissioner and county sealer of weights and measures in twenty-three counties will be put up to Governor Stephens by George Hecke director of the state department of agriculture.
The plan, which will apply to the smaller counties, is to provide more salary for officials by giving them sufficient funds to keep them fully occupied.
George McPhee, Orange county sealer of weights and measures, said Orange county is not included in this list. He said the term "small," as applied to the counties of the state, has reference to population and not area.
There are several deputies who have three and four counties under their supervision," said McPhee. "Such counties as Trinity, Modoc and Mendocino, for instance. Why, there is more work for a commissioner in one thickly-populated county than there is in three or four of the sparsely-populated counties. The consolidation plan undoubtedly applies to counties of small population."
PROF. TOZIER LEADS
THE FULLERTON BAND
Teaching the Suburbanites How to Make Good Music
With 25 bandsmen waiting on his word, E. B. Tozier made his initial appearance as director of the Fullerton band at the weekly concert last night.
It was early apparent to the large crowd assembled that the new leader knows his trade and as the program progressed to a successful conclusion there remained no lingering doubt about his ability to keep his musicians going smoothly and harmoniously.
The two sons of the new director, who will hereafter be connected with the organization, were a factor in last night's program and their clarinet duet was a popular feature.
Former Director A. E. Stuelke, who gives up the work in order to devote more time to his business affairs, is generous in his praise of his successor, and is confident that he will make the Fullerton band one of the best in the south.
Mr. Tozier, who also directs the Anaheim band, is a band man pure and simple, makes a business of it and has no other interests to divide his energies. Because he knows the band business and works at it he has been successful, and it is considered a matter of good fortune that Fullerton may have the benefit of his ability.
ANAHEIM WOMEN VICTIMS OF A SWINDLER
SLICK PROMOTER PERSUADES TEN CITIZENS TO LOOSEN UP THEIR PURSE STRINGS
Sold Non-Existent Lots in an Imaginary Town in a Visionary Oil Field in the Heart of the Desert, and Pocketed Considerable Deniro—Now In the Clutches of the Law, and Will Probably Have an Opportunity to Meditate Over His Misdeeds.
J. K. Woods must be a pursuasive talker, judging from the manner in which he swindled a number of Anaheim women by selling them lots in an imaginary town in the heart of an imaginary oil field on the Mojave desert. Woods worked Anaheim and landed eight victims, the peculiar feature of his transactions being that they were all women with two exceptions. As soon as his victims became suspicious that all was not on the square of flowers were put on his trunk.
COST OF SCHOOLS

Increase in Year of More Than Million Dollars.
During the past fiscal year Orange county expended $2,244,580.09 for its schools, including buildings.
This is according to the annual report of County School Superintendent R. P. Mitchell.

J. K. Woods must be a persuasive talker, judging from the manner in which he swindled a number of Anaheim women by selling them lots in an imaginary town in the heart of an imaginary oil field on the Mojave desert. Woods worked Anaheim and landed eight victims, the peculiar feature of his transactions being that they were all women with two exceptions. As soon as his victims became suspicious that all was not on the square officers were put on his trail and he was arrested last week in Los Angeles and brought to Santa Ana. He was arraigned before Judge Cox in whose court ten complaints had been filed against him. His hearing was set for August 10.
The first two complaints against the prisoner were sworn to Wednesday by Mrs. Laura B. Resh, who alleges that she gave Woods $720 to turn over to his "oil syndicate" and by Mrs. Frances A. Nelson, who says that she parted with $200.
Both of these women appeared in court when Woods was arraigned.
With them came Emily C. Holder, who says she gave Woods $100; Mary Ziegler, who also put up $100; Elsie Ziegler, $25; C. Marie Nelson, $200; Callie Jarvles, $75; Bessie O'Brien, $25; Otto F. W. Klatt, $100, and Geo. A. Young, $100.
The three complaints on which Woods will be tried are those filed by Young, Mrs. Nelson and Mrs. Resh. The other complainants are expected to appear as witnesses.
A total of $1645 is represented in the complaints now on file in the justice court, and according to Deputy District Attorney C. N. Mozley at least a half dozen more complaints are yet to be filed.
Woods is about 40 years old and fairly good looking.
