EDWARDS DON'T LIKE PROPOSED FAIR SITES "No site yet proposed for the permanent Orange county fair grounds appeals to me as being the logical site," Nelson T. Edwards, county supervisor and vice-president of the National bank of Orange, said in reviewing the qualifications of the three sites now under consideration by the permanent fair site committee. He said: "Personally I am as much against the site adjoining the county hospital as I am against the old fair grounds. I do think that the site should be north of Santa Ana, and hope that some suitable location can be obtained in that direction at a reasonable price. "Viewing the matter from the stand-point of a county supervisor, I see no chance for any site to be purchased by the county for the 1923 fair. The count ybudget was closed last August and no appropriation was included for fair purposes sufficient to purchase the expensive fair sites proposed. "The site advocated by Anaheim seems to me all together too expensive. The sum of $130,000 is too much for that sand lot." It had been said that Edwards favored the proposed site in West Orange east of the Santa Ana river at an estimated cost of $180,000. He said this was not true in that he did not favor any grounds now awaiting the decision of the fair site committee. The cost of the old fair grounds in the southwest section of Santa Ana has been placed at $68,000. The fair site committee is expected to meet this week to take action in the matter of locating the fair grounds. JURY SYSTEM IS FAULTY Anaheim, Dec. 30, 1922. Editor Anaheim Gazette: Dear Sir:—I read in the Examiner's issue of the 24th inst., the views expressed by Sir Basil Thomson, K. C. E., former head of Scotland yard detectives, which I think is worthy of considerable thought. The difference in murder and crime between this country and Great Britain is appalling, if such really is a fact. I think our judges and jurors should sit up and take notice—also of the difference in court proceedings. Law has been passed in this country to stop the sale of intoxicating liquor. Liquor no doubt was, and is, the cause of some murders, and a great deal of suffering, but has the re-striction stopped crime. No, but there are other acts, if passed, that should help greatly. Why not make it a criminal offense to sell guns that can be concealed on the person? Or the carrying of such without a permit? Do away with fines in such cases and enforce the law, and I think it will have more effect. Something must be done to stop this crime wave, otherwise the law is a farce. Take, for instance, this ferocious beast in woman's clothing, Mrs. Phillips. I can't understand how any true American citizen that believes in upholding the laws of the land could have cast his ballot for any thing short of first degree murder. Was it because she was a woman? Or the thought of casting his ballot to have a woman sent to the gallows? If so, such a person has no business on the jury. Or was it the act of one that believes in returning good for evil? If the latter, "Fatty," who is crying for assistance proud of.

BULLETIN TELLS HOW TO COMBAT RABIES "The disease known as rabies in animals and hydrophobia in man is one of the most terrible maladies known to medical science," said G. W. Wardell, deputy horticultural commission, commenting upon the fact that a dog owned by Harold Carnahan, of Santa Ana, was found to have rabies after it died last week. "Rabies," said Wardwell, referring to Farmers' Bulletin No. 449, issued by the United States department of agriculture, "is prevalent among dogs in various parts of the United States, and the presence of infected animals is a constant menace to human life." "Under this condition the relative infrequency of deaths among persons who have been bitten by rabid dogs is due to the protection afforded by the Pasteur treatment. Even with this treatment, however, considerable anxiety, suffering, hardship and expense are entailed." "Theoretically, rabies is one of the most easily eradicated of contagious diseases, but practically, the undertaking is beset with difficulties. All that is required is the muzzling of all dogs for a sufficient time. "There is no intention of assuming the part of an alarmist with reference to the increasing prevalence of rabies. It cannot be denied, however, that there is at present unusual occasion for alarm in certain parts of the country. "Since the infection is practically always transmitted by a bite, and since the animal which does the biting is almost always a dog, all sanitary measures must be directed to the control of these animals for a sufficient time to cover the incubation period of the disease." BAKER ANALYZED It is announced that friends of former Secretary of War Baker are east of the Santa Ana river at an estimated cost of $180,000. He said this was not true in that he did not favor any grounds now awaiting the decision of the fair site committee. The cost of the old fair grounds in the southwest section of Santa Ana has been placed at $68,000. The fair site committee is expected to meet this week to take action in the matter of locating the fair grounds. Woman has been granted most all rights politically and otherwise, so why should they not be punished to the limit just as much as man, especially this woman, Phillips, smarter than a fox, whose able defender tried to shift her crime on the innocent, or else have her judged insane, if only for a little while. I think she has now proven herself to be more sane and keep awake better than her jail-keepers most of the time. A few days ago I read where a woman at Long Beach while out riding with her husband, in a jealous fit, shot and killed him. The expected plea would be self-defense; or the unwritten law. Being ignorant on this unwritten law question, I would like to know if a woman kills her unfaithful husband and is acquitted on that plea, how about the man that has a family of children and kills his wife for the same cause, is he entitled to be acquitted likewise for the same reason? Did you ever hear of a man making that plea to be acquitted? It appears to me should be 50-50. London, January 9th, a woman and her affinity are to be executed for the murder of this womans' husband. No appeal granted, nor the petitions for clemency of a million can save them. Enforcement of the law is the cause of the low percentage there compared to here. Compared percent age, one out of every 12,000 here, to one out of 412,000 in England, is some difference in murder. I read in the Long Beach Press of Sunday where James M. Rhoades, secretary of the Glendale Chamber of Commerce, was let off with a fine "only" for smiling and winking at Madalyne Obenchain during her second trial, when he was on the jury. Such barefaced action in open court is disgraceful. If that is the class called on for jurors in Los Angeles courts, no wonder justice can't be got for her lips. I can't understand how any true American citizen that believes in upholding the laws of the land could have cast his ballot for anything short of first degree murder. Was it because she was a woman? Or the thought of casting his ballot to have a woman sent to the gallows? If so, such a person has no business on the jury. Or was it the act of one that believes in returning good for evil?

Albee; president vaudeville circuit;FERENCE TO PROHIBITION OF CRIME STORIES IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK "Since the infection is practically always transmitted by a bite, and since the animal which does the biting is almost always a dog, all sanitary measures must be directed to the control of these animals for a sufficient time to cover the incubation period of the disease." BAKER ANALYZED It is announced that friends of former Secretary of War Baker are incensed over the biography of that gentleman which has been published in a new edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica. They take exception to the statement that he is "an American politician," evidently thinking he should have been called a statesman. But their ire is most aroused by the review of Baker's war record. Upon that we have no comment to make, but submit the encyclopedia's review with confidence that every American is competent to judge whether it is fairly correct or not. It reads as follows: "After the outbreak of the world war he indorsed the administration's peace policy, supported the league of enforced peace, and urged that the national guard be tried fully before compulsory service be decided upon. After America entered the war he recommended moderation toward conscientious objectors and forbade men in uniform to interfere with anti-conscription meetings. The charge of pacifism was often brought against him and his career generally as secretary was widely condemned through out the United States as lacking in energy, foresight and ability and especially for his failure to prepare adequately in the months immediately preceding the American declaration of war." A big man eventually gets out of a little job, but a little man seldom gets into a big job unless he inherits it. I read in the Long Beach Press of Sunday where James M. Rhoades, secretary of the Glendale Chamber of Commerce, was let off with a fine "only" for smiling and winking at Madalyne Obenchain during her second trial, when he was on the jury. Such barefaced action in open court is disgraceful. If that is the class called on for jurors in Los Angeles courts, no wonder justice can't be got for her people. Apparently, he alone, would have hung the jury, providing the other eleven should have stood for conviction. That is why I think it wrong to require the O.K. of all the jury before deciding guilt or innocence. I wonder what this juror expected to get from Madalynne when liberated? From the uncertainty of punishment and, if convicted, the criminal then depends on parole. It appears to me that the criminal looks at the above and the Los Angeles jail as a good joke, and I think he is about right. I read in the evening papers of the 26th inst., of the fine dinner served to these jail habitues, consistinv of bread and butter, pork and apple sauce, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, roast ham, stewed corn, coffee, cream pudding, mince pie, apples mixed fruit and cigars. So why should they fear such a good boarding house. If you are lucky enough not to be shot dead by this high classed gentry before they search you for money or valuables, they may let you off with a cracked skull. If they chance to be caught, which don't very often happen, they know they have a good boarding house to come back to, and they know who has to pay for it. So why worry? I was born under the British flag, came to Los Angeles over fifty-four years ago, have been an American citizen over forty years, which I am one out of 412,000 in England, is some difference in murder. The prohibition joins its finish. Wih the E.F. Albee, preside vaudeville circuit, ferences to prohibition variety stages in the closed to this particle mor. The new order mainly. A similar effect for some time western vaudeville. It works havoc in vaudeville actors, but all the more justifiabon. Vaudeville pays have complained peg great and growing vaudevilion and the its enforcement, we dialogue. The rule theatreical people say and also to promote law. When the federal forcement commission quest, a year or so after itself should stop he was laughed at by the jess came all to foremost jest.fhe same thing, it Perhaps it also marries development. The prohibition been played for about in all of its ramifications for a quietus, in an DEMOCRATIC ST Tally one for the ship. Senator-elect York, has had a co him. proud of. Also of the country in which I live, and a strong believer in letting the law take its course. And just as strong in believing that the almighty dollar should not prevent the law from being enforced. If the law is not adhered to more strictly and swiftly, I would not be surprised to read of a re-occurrence of such as took place at Santa Rose in December, 1920. Almost every few days we read of some good law-abiding citizen or a police officer making an effort to do the duty expected of him, shot down by ya murderer's bullet. If caught what does he usually get? Jail? How long? Result, good board, good behavior, jail, too full. Parole granted, good-by. Call again. From the head of the government on down the line each gets what the majority of people think they deserve. So why not have eleven, thirteen, fifteen, or any uneven number on the jury, and let the majority to two-thirds, decide. I think it would have a good effect in most cases. While the Phillips trial was going on I listened to a good many opinions in regards as to how the lady jurors would be likely to cast their ballots. Some remarked that it was no place for a woman to be. Very easy for a good talker to cause them to change their opinion, and so on. However, it has proven to be otherwise. I think the ladies deserve praise for staying pat and unchangeable. Another I heard passed was, had the defendant been a fine looking man their ballots might have been different. This insinuating remark I promptly denounced, and hope all ladies called on the jury will manifest as much good common sense as the ladies above referred to. I thank you. THE PASSING YEARS O years whose cup of life o'er brimmed With joys that could not be contained; O years whose light of joy was drained; Though on our lives are graven deep The records of your fleeting stap, When we with you did laugh or weep, You took no thought of us away. O years to coem in silent file, Out of the future nearing fast, You soon will pass us by and, while We greet you, mingle with the past. Though on your front the sunbeams play; With garlands gay your brows be twined; We know, when you have passed our way, What deep regrets you'll leave behind. And yet we welcome in its turn Each new year whate'er gifts it brings For ever in our hearts doth burn A spark of hope for better things; Ever unquenched to live and glow Till fade the stars from out the sky; In that great day when we shall know That all our years have passed us by. THE HUMBLE VOICE Some like the voice of dancing waves Upon the wide white shore, Some like the wind among the pines, And some the thunder's roar. To some the voice of singing birds The area in rye this fall totalled 5,508,000 acres, which is 11.3 per cent lower than last fall, 6,310,000 acres. The condition on December 1 was 84.3 compared with 92.3 December 1 of last year and a ten year average of 90.8. STRAIGHTFORWARD TESTIMONY Many Anaheim Citizens Have Profited By It. If you have backache, urinary troubles, days of dizziness, headaches or nervousness, strike at the seat of the trouble. These are often the symptoms of weak kidneys and there is grave danger in delay. Doan's Kidney Pills are especially prepared for kidney ailments—are endorsed by over 50,000 people. Your neighbors recommend this remedy—have proved its merit in many tests. Anaheim readers should take fresh courage in the straightforward testimony of an Anaheim citizen. C. E. Jordan, carpenter, 319 S. Philadelphia St., says: "My work is a strain on my kidneys and back. I had attacks of backache and a soreness across my kidneys that made it hard for me to do any stooping or lifting work. My kidneys acted irregularly, but Doan's Kidney Pills, bought at Anaheim's Drug Store, soon rid me of the backache and put my kidneys in good condition. I always recommend Doan's, for I know they are just as represented." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Jordan had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y. NOTICE to change their opinion, and so on. However, it has proven to be otherwise. I think the ladies deserve praise for staying pat and unchangeable. Another I heard passed was, had the defendant been a fine looking man their ballots might have been different. This insinuating remark I promptly denounced, and hope all ladies called on the jury will manifest as much good common sense as the ladles above referred to. I thank you. MURDOCH HENRY. DAUGHERTY UNDER FIRE Attorney General Daugherty shows no inclination to run his guns in the face of enemy fire. The attempt to impeach him he ascribes to a desire to force the government to reveal the evidence it has for prosecution of certain accused profiteers. So far as the public is permitted to know, this may or may not be the case. At any rate the official is given a decided advantage by the fact that he is engaged in prosecutions on a large scale of per sons charged with having been crooked on a large scale. The truth concerning these charges, involving the alleged theft of millions of money supplied by the people in time of war, really must be regarded as of first importance. If Mr. Daugherty is so buttressed by evidence as to be able to prove the allegations set forth in the indictments, the effort to disturb him in his position will be open to the suspicion of not having been made in good faith. The fact that after the work of recovering the stolen money, and punishing the thieves has been completed, or has failed, Mr. Daugherty still will be accessible, is worth bearing in mind. If his course has been so bad that the act of bringing the rogues to justice, does not seem to soften the degree of wickedness, of course it will be proper to do with Daugherty exactly that suggested by his conduct; not necessarily that which is now spurring his foes to discredit him, and to hamper the work of his office. NO MORE BOOZE JOKES The prohibition joke can now see its finish. With the order issued by E. F. Albee, president of the Keith vaudeville circuit, forbidding all references to prohibition, most of the private stories in the United States are known. In that great day when we shall know That all our years have passed us by. THE HUMBLE VOICE Some like the voice of dancing waves Upon the wide white shore, Some like the wind among the pines, And some the thunder's roar. To some the voice of singing birds Is light and melody, Some choose the whisper of old leaves That drift down dreamily. I like the voice of common men On common duties bent, Who trade their little griefs and joys And reap a brave content. The voice of living lips that scorn To trifle with despair, That take the beauty from plain toll As swallows take the air. No speech with patient wisdom fraught, No flaming song I need— Give me the voice of common men Who love the lives they lead. HARVEST TIME These are the days when it's always good To go for a walk in the autumn wood; To shuck your feet as you pass along And hum the tune of a little song. Beautiful days that stand midway From a glaring moon to a snow-white day. When a summer's perfume sweet is fled. But a summer's gifts are harvested. These are the nights when over the trees We hear the rush of a passing breeze; Beautiful nights when we never tire Of gazing deep in the open fire. The logs burn low, and the fire-light gleams With the warning glow of contented dreams, And out of the fire new visions rise In harvest time—when the summer dies. YOUR TOWN NOTICE In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California. In the Matter of the Estate of William S. Robb, Deceased. Notice for Publication of Time of Proving Will, Etc. Notice is hereby given that Friday, the 5th day of January, 1923, at 10 o'clock a.m., of said day, at the court room of this Court, Department No. 1, in the City of Santa Ana, County of Orange, State of California, has been appointed as the time and place for hearing the application of Charles J. Robb, praying that a document now on file in this court, purporting to be the last Will and Testament of the said deceased, be admitted to probate, that Letters Testamentary be issued thereon to Charles J. Robb, at which time and place all persons interested therein may appear and contest the same. Dated December 19th, 1922. J. M. BACKS, County Clerk LEONARD EVANS, Attorney for Petitioner. 12-21-3t NOTICE OF SALE OF BONDS OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM Notice is hereby given that the City of Anaheim, a municipal corporation, offers for sale, and will sell to the highest bidder, for cash, but for not less than their par value and accrued interest at the date of delivery, the following municipal bonds of said city, to-wit: a. Forty bonds, known and designated "Municipal Building Completion Bonds," each in the denomination of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollars, issued for the completion of a municipal building. All of said bonds are dated January 15, 1923, and will be paid one bond each year, commencing with the 15th day of January, 1924, the entire issue being paid in forty (40) years. These bonds bear interest at the rate of five per cent (5 percent) per annum, payable semi-annually, commencing with July 15, 1923, principal and interest payable at the office of the Treasurer of the City of Anaheim. b. Twenty-five bonds known and designated "Street Improvement Bonds," each in the denomination of One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollars, issued for the construction and completion of certain street work. All of said bonds are dated January 15, 1923, and will be paid two bonds each year commencing January 15, 1924, for five years, and thereafter three bonds each year for five years, the entire issue being paid in ten years. These bonds bear interest at the rate of five per cent NO MORE BOOZE JOKES The prohibition joke can now see its finish. With the order issued by E. F. Albee, president of the Keith vaudeville circuit, forbidding all references to prohibition, most of the variety stages in the United States is closed to this particular form of humor. The new order acceeds the east mainly. A similar order has been in effect for some time on the largest western vaudeville circuits. It works havoc in the "spiels" of vaudeville actors, but it is probably all the more justifiable for that reason. Vaudeville patrons are said to have complained persistently of the great and growing volume of gibes at prohibition and the various aspects of its enforcement, worked into stage dialogue. The rule was made, the theatrical people say, to avoid trouble and also to promote respect for the law. When the federal prohibition enforcement commissioner made a request, a year or so ago, that the public itself should stop kidding prohibition, he was laughed at for his pains and the jes s came all the faster. When the foremost jest factory itself does the same thing, it means business. Perhaps it also marks a natural stage of development. The prohibition joke has really been played for about all it was worth, in all of its ramifications. It was due for a quietus, in any event. DEMOCRATIC STATESMANSHIP Tally one for the new statesmanship. Senator-elect Copeland, of New York, has had a corset named after him. YOUR TOWN Real towns are not made by men afraid Lest someone else get ahead; When every one works and nobody shirks You can raise a town from the dead. And if while you make your personal stake Your neighbor make one, too. Your town will be what you want it to be, It isn't your town—it's you. If you want to live in the kind of a town Like the kind of town you like, You needn't slip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You will only find what you left be hind. For there's nothing that's really new. It's a knock at yourself when you knock your own town. It isn't the town—it's you. WHEAT ACREAGE SHORT The winter wheat area sown this fall totalled 46,069,000 acres, which is 3.2 per cent lower than in the fall of 1921—47,611,000 acres, the department of agriculture estimated. The condition on December 1 was 79.5 per cent against 76 on December 1 last year and the ten years average of 87.9. BREZE; Beautiful nights when we never tire Of gazing deep in the open fire.
