Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuahel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter OFFICIAL CITY PAPER FOR SENATOR, CHAS. C. MOORE Does California want the paid attorney of William Randolph Heart, the mouthpiece of Hearst and the exponent and defender of Hearst's policies to represent it in the United States senate? Or does California prefer Charles C. Moore, business man of both northern and southern California, chief executive of the San Francisco exposition and one of the biggest farmers and fruit producers in the state, to carry the Bear flag in the upper house of congress? These are the questions which today are being asked by moty of the leading citizens throughout the states, who, as Hiram Johnson has filed his claims for re-election, believe it is proper to examine into the charges that he represents—for money—the interests of William Randolph Heart. Fred, J. Wilson, newspaper man of high standing and of national reputation, who was general manager of Hearst's International News company at the time Senator Johnson was employed by William Randolph Heart, sheds considerable light on the situation of employment of Johnson by Tammany Hall officials of New York City. "Hiram is stated to have accepted $25,000 to go to New York and make the fight for Tammany. "California did not send Senator Johnson to Washington to practice law and accept enormous fees from Hearst and his New York political allies. Can you imagine Wm. McKinley, while a United States president, appearing as a lawyer before the United States supreme court? Or Charles E. Hughes, or Ellhu Root, or William Howard Taft or any other eminent man acting as an official of the people in Washington, engaging in private practice, and utilizing his official position to influence official decisions for that private cause? "A man is known by the company he keeps. California does not want to be further represented in the United States senate by the paid hireling of Hearst?" FRUIT DEALERS WARNED Discovery of short weight boxes of berries at the stands of two Santa Ana fruit dealers Saturday brought a reprism from George McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, and a warning against further offenses of that nature, which have been rare, it is said, since vigorous enforcement of official regulations stamped out the practice some time ago. Immuch as the instances discovered by McPhee Saturday were first offenses and were satisfactorily adjusted without recourse to formal complaint, the 'dealers' names were withheld. In one case, McPhee said he found sixteen crates of berries which were under weight from 1 1-2 to 2 ounces to the box, or measured in berries, about 2 1-2 boxes to each crate of 30 boxes. The same shortage, approximately, was discovered in the other case. Fred, J. Wilson, newspaper man of high standing and of national reputation, who was general manager of Hearst's International News company at the time Senator Johnson was employed by William Randolph Hearst, sheds considerable light on the situation in the following article: "California citizens know that invariably Senator Johnson is actively advocating and manifestly in sympathy with the policies which Hearst applauds and is in violent opposition to the policies which Mr. Hearst finds repugnant to his idea of what America should have, and opposed to those connections which are obnoxious to Hearst's private spleen. "It may be interesting to relate something of the way in which Hiram Johnson first became openly associated with the Hearst camp and entered on a course of opposition to the conclusion of the treaty of peace and lated, the four power treaty, in fullest sympathy with Hearst, Senator Reed, of Missouri, and other bitter-enders. "The same Hearst group is now in the same bitter opposition to President Harding, the Republican party, and the four power treaty. "During the war, as most remember, Hearst papers by printing colored news from abroad of the activities of the allies and by undisguised opposition to America taking any part in the struggle against autocracy, by Hearst opposition to the draft and his other malodorous ware time activities, incensed the people of Great Britain and later of France. "As a result Great Britain closed the cables to all the Hearst news services and newspapers. France followed next. So did Italy. So did Canada. Hearst was left without European news for his newspapers and the newspaper clients of his International News Service and Universal Service, save that which was obtained by such of his newspapers as were served by the Associated Press. "The Associated Press brought suit against the International News Service, the Hearst organization, and obtained an injunction under which Hearst was restricted from re-writing any news of Europe brought to America by the Associated Press. "Hearst had to fight. He engaged Inasmuch as the instances discovered by McPhee Saturday were first offenses and were satisfactorily adjusted without recourse to formal complaint, the 'dealers' names were withheld. In one case, McPhee said he found sixteen crates of berries which were under weight from 1 1/2 to 2 ounces to the box, or measured in berries, about 2 1/2 boxes to each crate of 30 boxes. The same shortage, approximately, was discovered in the other case, which involved three crates. The dealers in both instances received the berries from Los Angeles, being unaware they explained, that there was any shortage. They remedied the situation by scattering the required 2 1/2 boxes of berries over each crate and adding the remaining half box for good measure. In the future, prompt punishment will be meted out to violators of the barry weight regulations, McPhee warned." WATER LEVEL LOWERING The water level in wells east and southwest of Santa Ana has lowered more than four feet in the past thirty days. W. W. Hoy, local civil engineer, declared at the meeting of the Santa Ana Realty board at St. Ann's Inn. In that time Hoy has taken measurements in ninety-four wells. The statement was made as a warning that Santa Ana and Orange county for that matter, should not delay definite action looking to the conservation of waters in the Santa Ana and Santiago canyons. Hoy also said that Santa Ana should file on all water sources available, as a matter of protecting the future of Santa Ana. That the serious situation that is developing in that city and county with reference to the future water supply is coming to be recognized, is evidenced by the fact that it is discussed wherever meetings are held by persons who are active in promotion of the two units of government, it was pointed out. It was said that the Irvine company and the Serrano and John T. Campbell Water companies were again discussing the construction of a dam in Santiago creek to impound waters of that stream. The board endorsed the proposal to submit another charter to the voters of Santa Ana and action was taken urging speed in getting to a vote the The Associated Press brought suit against the International News Service, the Hearst organization, and obtained an injunction under which Hearst was restricted from re-writing any news of Europe brought to America by the Associated Press. Hearst had to fight. He engaged Samuel Untermyer, a noted New York lawyer, and he, with Wm. De Ford, Hearst's counsel, fought the Associated Press in contention of its proprietary rights to news, at a hearing held in New York City. Hearst lost the case and it was appealed to the United States supreme court: The situation was serious for Hearst. Then Hearst decided to employ Hiram Johnson. Johnson was a United States senator from California, and Hearst conceived the idea that his appearance in the supreme court as a Hearst attorney might save Hearst from what would be most disastrous unless peace were declared with Britain and France. Senator Johnson accepted the job. His fee was $15,000, of which he was given a retainer of $5000 before the case was heard. But teh result that Hearst supposed Johnson would secure failed to materialize. The supreme court decision was in favor of the Associated Press, and restricted Hearst from appropriating its news and established proprietary right in news. From their associations in the Associated Prtss case developed a connection between Hearst and Johnson which has endured to this day. When Hearst's friend, Hylan, Democratic mayor of New York City, got in a political squabble, Hearst engineered the KLAN DEFIES GOVERNOR Ku Klux Klan in Kansas is declared to have joined William Allen White in support of the railroad strikers in defense of Governor Allen and the industrial court. Governor Allen received a letter of warning purporting to come from the klan at Wichita in which he was advised "to reform." The letter said: "We wish to state to you in the name of the law of the people and for the people that the merchants of Wellington, Arkansas City and all of Kansas will hold up for the strikers and the rights of the good people of this country. We advise you to reform." Accompanying the letter was a photograph of klan members wearing their masks. The governor recently ordered all klan members in the state unmased, declaring it an unhealthy condition while strikes were in progress. Life in the cities is getting too complicated. It has now become almost impossible to see all the pictures every week. A man is called "a poor fish" whose wife makes a goat of him. ANAHEIM GAZETTE From a Bride: "As a young housewife of only two and one-half years' experience I am glad to find that even we amateurs can cook successfully if we use Royal Baking Powder." Mrs. J. L.

Of course, the great majority of wage earners greatly deplore the murders, but they will be inseparably associated in the public mind with the mine strike that has the solid backing of labor leaders. If anything were needed to stiffen the resolve of the people not to be deprived of necessary fuel and transportation it is furnished in the Illinois outbreak. The idea that the consuming public which pays all hour and a very sick woman. Neither Mr. Miller or Mr. Blauer got her name. Mr. Miller was somewhat reluctant to talk about the rescue. He said he could not understand how the woman ever got so far out or why she took such a chance when she did not appear to be a good swimmer. She was about 40 years old, he said. The woman's husband carried her off to an automobile and then took her home. MOB HYPNOTISM Under the influence of that peculiar form of psychology known as "mob hypnotism," it takes the average person about 30 seconds to throw off the mask of civilization and revert to the lowest form of savagery. The other day in Cleveland, an auto driver speeding 50 miles an hour through congested streets was pursued by motorcycle police. Other auto drivers joined in the chase, like small boys chasing the fire engine. By the time the reckless driver was arrested on a charge of driving while intoxicated, the pursuing autos numbered 50, and cries of "Lynch him!" were ringing forth. There might really have been a lynching, if the chase had been longer and no cop present. A mob transforms quickly into a blood-hunting hypnotic state. The tendency that people have, of making asses of themselves when they get together in large groups, may explain why we do so many fool things when we get together in the form of government. As voters we back community or national projects based on principles that none of us would think of counteracting in our private lives. Mob hypnotism is what makes a man, who is a genius of economy and practicalness in private life, "fall for" visionary and impracticable projects when serving in public office. OLD-TIMERS MEET The July meeting of the Orange County Historical society was held at Orange county park on last Saturday afternoon. As part of the program of the meeting, the society dedicated one of the live oak trees near the pavilion to J. E. Pleasants, a California pioneer, who visited the park as a young man in 1859, 63 years before. A committee consisting of Robert Northcross, William McPherson and S. M. Davis, selected the tree to be dedicated, and the same committee was appointed to arrange for a suitable mark or tablet to be placed on the tree. Mr. Pleasants afterwards gave an address on "My First Visit to Orange County Park in 1859," in which he described the park as he found it at that time, and also detailed his experience as one of a party of young men who NEAR DEATH IN SEA County Probation Officer R. R. Miller enacted a thrilling rescue at Diver's Cove, near Laguna Beach Sunday afternoon. He and F. C. Blauer, a Santa Ana grocer, were sitting on the beach sands when Mr. Miller observed a woman in distress. The breakers were rolling extremely high and it was apparent that the woman was unable to get ashore. Mr. Miller rushed to her aid and after a struggle with the breakers finally reached her. He says that the moment he got hold of her she gave up the fight and became unconscious. Three or four breakers rolled over Mr. Miller and the woman. He held one hand over her mouth and nose to keep her from swallowing any more water. Other men, including Mr. Blauer, went to the aid of Mr. Miller and helped him get the woman on the beach. She was unconscious for almost a half FOR RENT Two five-room Flats. Excellent appointments.
