Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper
From Gazette of Nov. 9, 1872.
Messrs. Davis and White, in boring a surface well for George Heffner in Anaheim this week, struck a stratum of unusually coarse gravel, and at a depth of 76 feet found a rock of over 2 pounds weight, which Mr. White says is the largest he has ever found in boring wells in or near Anaheim during nearly two years' experience. At 79 1-2 feet the rocks became so large as to stop further operations and a large vein of water was also obtained.
A fire was started this week by sme campers on the plains west of Fairview and has burned much valuable fuel besides destroying half a mile of pole fence belonging to G. G. Greeley. The fire burned splendidly sending up vast sheets of flames and illuminating the county from Anaheim to the sea in a manner that was truly sublime, to the sentimental observer, but Mr. Greeley says he don't yearn for the sublime as much as he did, and would rather have his fence back.

L. A. Evans has his left hand tied up as a result of running a sliver into it while handling a wooden gate during irrigation a couple of weeks ago. The silver was some days imbedded in the flesh, and gave Mr. Evans no end of trouble until the services of a physician were employed, and he is now getting along quite well.

For fear that a coolness might arise between ourselves and subscribers we have heretofore refrained from mentioning the fact that ice formed in Anaheim and vicinity on the night of Sunday, October 27. On that same Sunday also occurred the first sand storm that we have had for four months, and we are pleased to be able to say that it was not a "Santa Ana" nor peculiar to the latitude of Anaheim, but raged in San Diego and threw dirt in the eyes of our Los Angeles friends as viciously and promptly as was its strict attention to business here.
The birthday of Carola Langenberger was celebrated by a social gathering of her friends at her residence on Sunday evening. A pleasant evening was enjoyed by all the participants and at a late hour the revellers departed with many kind expressions of regard for their fair hostess and a wish for many happy returns of the day.
A large number of young people surprised the family of our respected citizen, Theo. Rimpau, with a call on Saturday evening last, and proceeded to make themselves very much at home, passing the evening with music, dancing, feasting, etc., to the general satisfaction of all concerned.
The great event of the year—the election of president of the United States and an expression of the will of the people on the question of the railroad subsidy, took place yesterday, and, as far as Anaheim is concerned, was one of the most quiet and orderly that has ever occurred. The most remarkable fact is the small number of votes polled, only 255 all told, about five-eights of what had been expected. The vote last year was 238 and 276 names were enrolled. Another notable circumstance is the disparity between membership of the Greeley club and the votes cast for that ticket. There were 131 members of the club and only 122 votes cast for the candidate. Following is the vote in this precinct: Grant and Wilson, 129; Greeley and Brown, 122; for congress, Keeven, 127; Houghton, 125; against subsidy, 144; for subsidy, 74; water commissioners, David Evey, 227; Henry

The first prize, a framed picture of Psyche, was awarded to Miss Zelma Bailey and the second prize, a smaller picture of the same subject, fell to Miss Lee Browning Refreshments were served and late in the afternoon the party dispersed.

There are thousands of people in all parts of the country who will make every effort to secure a copy of this publication, to say nothing of the hundreds of thousands more who will consider it one of the highest honors possible to obtain, to have their name appear therein. However, but a limited number will find it possible to have their names included in it because of a lack of time to join this society. Those who are now preparing their papers for membership or planning to join, can consider themselves unusually fortunate if they are able to complete the necessary steps in time to become members before too late. The society is glad to assist those trying to join to complete their records at their historical library, 424 South Broadway, Los Angeles, where one of the most remarkable collections of early American history bearing upon the subject, is to be found. Immediate action by those planning to join, is essential to get into this immensely valuable publication, that will be distributed throughout the United States.
FORMER RECORD BROKEN
All motor car registration records for the United States will be broken by California this year, according to a report just issued by the Automobile Club of Southern California.
There are approximately 837,000 autos registered in the state at the present time, the majority of which are in the southern and central counties.
On January 1, startte of New York had registered only 812,037. The increase of cars registered this year in California over the registration of last year and the year preceding is
THE TIN CAN TOURISTS
A unique convention was held in Springfield, Illinois, recently, when the representatives of the Tin Can Tourists of the World met to form a state branch of their society.
This is an organization of auto campers interested in securing and maintaining good camping conditions and habits wherever auto touring is popular.
The society was formed about two years ago at Tampa, Fla. Its members bind themselves to the following rules: To wear the emblem of the order—a tin can worn on the front of the car; to help a fellow member when in distress on the road as much as possible without injury to self or car; to keep and leave all camp grounds clean and sanitary. The promotion of clean, wholesome entertainment at all camp fires and the fraternal union of all auto campers are further objectives.
It is said that over 400,000 members have joined since the organization was started and the membership still grows rapidly. It is a project which should interest all persons who enjoy this mode of travel and which should meet the approval of property owners along the tourist routes. The motor camping army grows steadily. The freedom and enjoyment of the camp.
by California this year, according to a report just issued by the Automobile Club of Southern California.
There are approximately 837,000 autos registered in the state at the present time, the majority of which are in the southern and central counties.
On January 1, startte of New York had registered only 812,037. The increase of cars registered this year in California over the registration of last year and the year preceding is about thirty per cent, which is greater than that ever achieved by any state in America.
According to automobile club officials, there is every indication that auto registrations in California this year will bring the state up to second place, with a possibility of ranking first in the number of automobiles in use here.
Last year California was led by New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania but from the rapid increase of cars here it is likely, says the club, that California will lead both Ohio and Pennsylvania.
At the end of last year there were only 673,000 auto's in the state. This year there are 163,362 more cars than that here. The increase for the entire year of 1921 was only 104,938 which shows it is pointed out, the tre mendous strides taken in the use of motor cars in California.
Southern California leads the entire state, says the auto club, in the own ship of automobiles.
CHINA AND THE PHILIPPINES
Colonel Charles E. Davis, who has spent a year in the orient and just returned, is of the opinion that both China and the Philippines are making progress, the one toward political and the other toward financial stability. In respect to the Philippines there is no special trouble, except that public finance, as managed by the natives under expert New York Tamany inspiration and guidance, got into a terrible mess, which is being straightened out at the cost of a great and unnecessary increase of the public debt. In the end the taxpay ers have to bear the burden of political tomfoolery. And the taxpayers are everybody, only many of them don't know it and will not believe it.
As for China, it is nice to have somebody take a cheerful view. We get accounts of a new situation by every mail and might get one every day presented here.
SOMETHING STARTLING
According to the opinions of the leadin ghistorical and patriotic society, the rosters that the California society, Sons of the Revolution have published in the past five years, are not only the finest that have ever appeared, but are most distinctive and valuable and really worthy of permanent preservation.
The finest edition of the roster that has ever been published by the California society is now in course of preparation and will be ready for delivery immediately after the first of the year. This special thirtieth anniversary edition of the roster will contain one of the finest collections of some of the unpublished pictures of the revolutionary war, that has ever been gathered into one work, and will also contain a list of the first 1000 members to join the California society. In addition there will be other features that never before have been used in such a publication making the forthcoming issue, the most distinctive of its kind ever prepared.
The libraries and societies throughout the country will not only repeat their praise of this new roster, but will many inspiration and guidance, got into a terrible mess, which is being straightened out at the cost of a great and unnecessary increase of the public debt. In the end the taxpayers have to bear the burden of political tomfoolery. And the taxpayers are everybody, only many of them don't know it and will not believe it.
As for China, it is nice to have somebody take a cheerful view. We get accounts of a new situation by every mail and might get one every day if we had as many cables as we have to Europe. Optimism is apparently based on the belief that if they try all the ways there are they will finally find one that will work. Meantime the minister of finance has closed his shop and gone home to his own presumably well equipped estates, or to a tour of the world, or somewhere, as there is no money in the treasury.
The fact is that we may expect stability in China when there is but one army and one navy there; and these in sole control of the central government, and when that central government has authority to directly tax all Chinese precisely as the United States government taxes all American citizens. Only we may hope that it will not have to tax them so hard.
A BOORISH DISPLAY
Former Alien Property Custodian Garvan did not improve his case in the public eye by his insulting letter to the president. Mr. Garvan charged the president with having the "teamerity" to break a few precedents. Mr. Harding has plenty of courage to protect the public interest, even though such action may arouse the indignation of men of the Garvan stamp.
After a man has "gone to the dogs," nearly everybody barks at him.
EMPLOYMENT STATUS
The volume of employment throughout the country is improving steadily. Official survey of the federal department of labor shows that building construction maintains steady activity in all sections of the country. It is even reported that a shortage of common labor is threatened everywhere. The number of men given employment increased in September as compared with August.
Industrial employment has been given impetus by settlement of the coal and rail strikes. While the supply of fuel and cars is inadequate and hampers the return to normal economical activity, yet the whole complexion of the situation is improved and constant betterment of conditions in business and industry is reasonably to be expected.
If you are "cocky" over a small job you'd burst if you were to crow over a big one.
