Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entured at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter OFFICIAL CITY PAPER Charles H. Sweet, of Fullerton, wouldn't talk to his bride, Lucy, she alleged Friday, in filing suit for divorce and asking restoration of her malden name, Lucy Casselman, which she relinquished a little more than seven months ago to become Mrs. Sweet. The wedding took place in Santa Ana last October 20. The couple separated April 15, this year, after living together less than six months. Mrs. Sweet's allegations of extreme cruelty include, beside reference to her husband's reticence, charges that he called her stingy and said he was sorry he had married her. Attorneys Allen and Lyon, of Fullerton, represent Mrs. Sweet. James Sanderson, a 60-year-old man who has been making himself a nuisance about town for some time, was taken to the county hospital Tuesday, where he will be placed in the psychiatric ward and examined for insanity. Sanderson appeared at the parking plant of the Anaheim Citrus Free association Monday and demanded a room. When told they had no room for lodgers he became abusive, and Manager Schureman phoned for a police officer Moodly responded large an undertaking as that of 1921. The auditor's report of admission receipts showed that tickets were sold to 36,384 adults and 3148 children, giving a total of $18,968.85. The treasurer's report showed receipts of $37,920.35 and disbursements, up-to-date, of $33,002.00, leaving a balance in the bank at the time of the meeting, of $4918.35. There are still many bills to be met and some money to come in and it was impossible at the time of the meeting to show how nearly this year's undertaking paid for itself. Property bought newly this year has a salvage value of nearly $4000 and the property of the association is insured for $5000. The manager reported that several show promoters in California and Arizona seem anxious to purchase the set of overhead illumination used in the citrus department this year, which should not the association something like $2000. It was decided to recommend to the Chamber of Commerce that the California Valencia Orange Show hereafter own its own tentage and electrical equipment, it being believed that such ownership would pay for all the material within four years out of rentals and the saving occasioned by such ownership. It was also recommended that the Chamber of Commerce issue to the subscribers of 1921-22 the basis of several plans by which the money borrowed in the two years, which totals $14,440, can be gradually returned, or written off in such assets where the generosity of the individual will dictate. It is thought that this year's show will leave a balance nearly sufficient to wipe out the loans occasioned by its staging, but the committee thinks this balance might better be kept as a nucleus for the larger and better show that it recommends for 1923. The report states that it is the opinion of experts in the show business that the California Valencia Orange Show from now on will gain sufficient financial support to supply all the pones and the American can. The stupendous savors of romance world produce whole world looms for surplus for never disappoint Europe, bread wheat is eaten American food in great quantity fields, the store chards and truss are garnered upon which the eligners depend truth which is... James Sanderson, a 60-year-old man who has been making himself a nuisance about town for some time, was taken to the county hospital Tuesday, where he will be placed in the psychiatric ward and examined for insanity. Sanderson appeared at the parking plant of the Anaheim Citrus Farm association Monday and demanded a room. When told they had no room for lodgers he became abusive, and Manager Schureman phoned for a policeman. Officer Moody responded and placed him under arrest and he spent Monday night in jail. City Health Officer Truxaw examined the man, gave it his opinion that he was insane. Judge Kuchel withheld sentence until after his examination at the hospital. After being closed for about a year the road through Brea canyon is again open to the driving public, having been thrown open the latter part last week. Something like nine miles of new roadway has been constructed and the road ought to be a big improvement over the old ruts and holes that formerly caused so many curb words from the average driver. As an illustration of what it means to those having business in that direction it is said that the running time of the Crown stages on the Pomona-Long Beach line run by way of Fullerton will cut as much as one hour by the removal of the necessary long detour during the period that the canyon road has been closed. The authorities being satisfied that Antonio Sanchez and Juan Flores Santa Ana Mexicans, had not dragged anyone to death beneath their automobile, from under which a battered bicycle was removed, Tuesday had released the pair with a fine of $10 each for being drunk. The bicycle had been dragged under the car from Delhi to Santa Ana, where L. V. Phillips, of Orange, overtook Sanchez and Flores and placed them under arrest. How the bicycle came to be under the car or where its owner might be, puzzled the police, but the feared discovery of some rider, possibly killed or maimed by the automobile, did not materialize, so no serious charge was brought against the Mexicans. With only a slight smile at the announcement that she was free, changing her seeming indifferent attitude which marked her demeanor throughout the course of the hearing, the generosity of the individual will dictate. It is thought that this year's show will leave a balance nearly sufficient to wipe out the loans occasioned by its staging, but the committee thinks this balance might better be kept as a nucleus for the larger and better show that it recommends for 1923. The report states that it is the opinion of experts in the show business that the California Valencia Orange Show from now on will gain sufficient financial support to pay itself out and show increasing profits each year. COUPLE IN TRUCE ON OPERATION ROW Both having agreed to an operation upon their 13-year-old daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Coppock, of Orange, have called a truce in the court battle for exclusive control of the two Coppock children. If no agreement regarding surgical and medical care of the children can be reached during the truce, the matter will be resumed Friday in Superior Judge R. Y. Williams' court, where Mrs. Coppock, who has hitherto opposed the surgical operation, gave her consent to it Monday. Coppock brought suit for exclusive control, charging that his wife's religious belief prevented her from agreeing to the operation, which he said was necessary because of the girl's diseased tonsils and adenoids. The child's health was endangered, he claimed, and her condition was holding her back in her studies. Mrs. Coppock opposed the suit, declaring that the operation was not necessary and would not be beneficial. After Dr. A. H. Domann, county physician, had been ordered by the court to examine the girl's tonsils, and had reported a diseased condition, the mother consented to the operation. Coppock, in bringing his suit, had charged that she threatened to have the doctor arrested if he attempted to operate. On the witness stand, Dr. Domann stated his refusal to operate without the mother's consent. PETITION AGAIN POSTPONED The supervisors on Tuesday postponed hearing of the petition for incorporation of Buena-Park until July 11. This being the third postponement, the petition automatically fails, there being no legal method for otherwise withdrawing it after being pre- With only a slight smile at the announcement that she was free, changing her seeming indifferent attitude which marked her demeanor throughout the course of the hearing, the charge of assault with a deadly weapon against Mrs. Sadie Edington, growing out of an affair in a Huntington Beach apartment May 20, when she twice wounded A. L. Truax, was dismissed by Justice C. W. Warner at the preliminary hearing Monday. Following testimony by Truax Dr. H. E. Zalser, superintendent of the City Hospital, City Marshal Jack Tinsley, of Huntington Beach, and by the officers who arrested her "Tar" Choate and E. C. Weidler to the effect that they believed that Mrs. Edington, at the time of the incident, was not rational. Our opinion was dismissed. ORANCE SHOW FINANCES The executive committee of the second annual California Valencia Orange Show met Tuesday night at the Chamber of Commerce offices to hear the report of the manager, treasurer and cashier. There were present besides Herman Stern, chairman, G. M. Simpson, E. B. Camp, E. M. Chambers and E. C. Edmiston, of the committee, besides Godfrey Stock, Otto des Granges, Paul Clausen, V. W. Hanman and the manager, who read a long report with complete information as to the operation of each department of the show recently concluded, which he stated, was not less than twice as PETITION AGAIN POSTPONED The supervisors on Tuesday postponed hearing of the petition for incorporation of Buena Park until July 11. This being the third postponement, the petition automatically fails, there being no legal method for otherwise withdrawing it after being presented. Incorporation of Buena Park was sought principally as a protection from the creation of a sewer farm in its neighborhood by the city of Fullerton. This matter has been satisfactorily adjusted, and Fullerton will join this city and Santa Ana in an ocean outfall. Senator Walter Eden, of Santa Ana, represented the propositions of incorporation, and Attorney Marks, of Fullerton, the objectors. While many of the people of Buena Park desired incorporation, there were many opposed to the plan, but the matter is now satisfactorily adjusted. IMMENSITY OF CROP When one studies a government crop forecast, one is almost overwhelmed by the immensity of the figures represented therein. Take, for example, wheat and corn. The estimated yield of wheat in the United States this year is 855,000,000 bushels. While there is no estimate as to corn this early in the season, the crop probably will run as high as 2,500,000,000 bushels. A little figuring shows that there is an average of more than eight bushels of wheat for each and every man, woman and child in the country, and an average of about 25 bushels of corn. This surely is ample ANAHEIM GAZETTE of 1921. Admission were sold given the treasures of $37. Up-to-date, price in the rating, of any bills come in time of early this itself. year has 4000 and coin is in eager remoters in anxious illumination that such the maf rentals by such amended issue the money which today returns where dual will that this face near-loans occre the com-ight bethe largemmends that it is the show Valencia will gain to supply all the wheat cakes, the corn pones and the mush that the average American can eat in a year. The stupendousness of these crops savors of romance. No country in the world produces so enormously. The whole world looks to the United States for surplus foodstuffs. This country never disappoints in this. All over Europe, bread made from American wheat is eaten. In the orient, too, American food products are consumed in great quantities. From the grain fields, the stock farms and the orchards and truck gardens of America are garnered the nutritious harvests upon which lies millions of foreigners depend. Here is romantic truth which is stranger than fiction. CHARGES WERE GROUNDLESS The board of supervisors and the county engineering department were completely vindicated of charges that all the money collected for road building at El Toro and San Juan Capistrano had not been used in those sections. Stating that the books of the roads department showed that not only had all the money collected from these districts been used there, but that in some cases more work had been done than the district was entitled to, Aaron Buchhelm, of San Juan Capistrano, and John Osterman, of El Toro, who had been delegated to investigate the conditions. Saturday evening emphatically announced that the charges were groundless. Their report was the feature of a joint meeting of the two farm centers held in the El Toro school. "The El Toro district is getting all the work to which its funds entitle it," Osterman said. "Complaints in this respect are entirely unjustified." "I have covered the ground carefully, examining the books," Buchheim said, "and I must say that San Juan Capistrano has actually secured more attention in road matters than the money turned in would warrant." County Engineer J. L. McBride and Supervisor Howard Wassum were present, telling of the county's work in these districts. CAREER WAS SHORT Cobwegs began gathering again Monday over the doors of the more or less famous Tower cafe at Seal Beach. At the same time Dan Sullivan, proprietor; Ed Mohr, chef, and J. S. Anderson, waiter, were preparing to face the federal courts in Los Angeles on charges of violating the liquor laws. Hajled as the "grand opening" night, a celebration at the Tower cafe, which figured in the courts several years ago, attracted hundreds of persons last Saturday night. While revelry was at its height, early Sunday morning, six federal officers under the direction of W. W. Anderson, prohibition enforcement agent, conducted a sensational raid on the place. Quantities of gin and other liquors to the amount of forty gallons were confiscated, the police declared. During the raid the dancers were lined up against the walls while a search of the tables was made. Sullivan, Mohr and Anderson are held in the Long Beach city jail in default of $1000 ball. The cafe is closed. Inspiration may make you jump a hedge, but it won't make you pound the road all day long. Members of the Orange County Motorcycle club are looking forward to a busy schedule for the coming months, as programs announcing the events were distributed. The first event of the season is scheduled for June 25, when a picnic will be held at Arch Beach. Other events planned are: July 16, a run to a secret destination, free lunch and swim; August 6, picnic at Mount Baldy; August 20, trip to Catalina island, with luncheon; September 3 and 4, two days' endurance run; September 24, picnic at Glen Ivy; October 15, non-stop motor contest; November 5, hunting trip; November 26, steak bake; December 17, stag run to Tia Juana. LOOSE LEGISLATION The judicial branch is in close sympathy with the legislative and executive in the movement toward a return to constitutional government. The loose legislation of the Democratic regime is being reviewed and laws that invade personal liberties and states' rights are being rejected. The child labor act of 1919 is the latest to come under the judicial eye, and has been declared null and void. Under the guise of a revenue measure it really transgressed the police powers of the states in seeking to restrict employment. The motives behind the legislation were of the best, but that was no reason why the constitution should be violated in its enactment. The states are amply able to handle such matters themselves. CLOTURE JUSTIFIABLE The New York Journal of Commerce says there is a wave of protest against the tariff now sweeping over the country. Hardly. But there is a wave of protest against the Democratic program of talking the tariff to death.
