VOLUME LII BIG PREMIUM FOR OUTFALL SEWER BONDS ANAHEIM SECURITIES AGAIN COMMAND GOOD PRICE ON THE MARKET R. H. Moulton Gets the $160,000 Issue for $2972—Contract for City Job Printing Let, But Advertising Held Up, Awaiting Decision of the City Attorney—Deeds for Strip to Widen Chestnut Street Received—Cassou Gives Deed for Strip Widening Center—Mexicans Want a Policeman. That Anaheim municipal bonds are still considered gilt edged was indicated when the trustees opened bids for the $160,000 outfall sewer bonds on Thursday night. The R. H. Moulton company, of Los Angeles, was the highest bidder, offering a premium of $2972. The bid was accepted and the bonds awarded to this firm. Bids for the city printing and advertising were also opened. Four offices submitted bids for the job printing. There were three bids for the advertiser of prosecution, according to Deputy District Attorney D. G. Wettlin who has been studying the matter. For one thing, the old county prohibition law, under which countless cases have been prosecuted, is virtually invalid, a supreme court decision indicated. For instance, under the county act, a justice could subject a person convicted of certain liquor violations to a fine and at least 180 days in jail for a first offense. The Wright act provides for no jail sentence for a first offense, making the maximum fine $500. In an appeal case, on habeas corpus writ of Arthur Mingo, in King county, the matter was decided in the supreme court. The King county courts had sentenced Mingo to serve 90 days, in addition to paying a fine of $500, all of which was provided for in the King county liquor ordinance. The court held, however, that where the county ordinance punishment is in excess of that provided in the Wright act, the county law is invalid and unconstitutional. The Orange county ordinance provides for a 90-day sentence, but this could not be imposed for a first offense, according to the decision which Wettlin quoted. The lower courts here, however, succeed in imposing jail sentences on convicted bootoleggers, by fining them up to $500, and if they are unable to pay the fine, ordering them committed... still considered gilt edged was indicated when the trustees opened bids for the $160,000 outfall sewer bonds on Thursday night. The R. H. Moulton company, of Los Angeles, was the highest bidder offering a premium of $2972. The bid was accepted and the bonds awarded to this firm. Bids for the city printing and advertising were also opened. Four offices submitted bids for the job printing. There were three bids for the advertising. The Gazette, which has been the official paper during the past year, submitted a bid at 50 cents an inch, which is the rate paid under the old contract. The Plain Dealer's bid was 60 cents an inch, and the Orange County News-Herald offered to perform the work for 42 cents per inch. The News-Herald's bid was the lowest, but a representative of the Plain Dealer filed a protest against awarding the work to that paper on the ground that it is not printed in Anaheim, consequently could not be legally designated as the official city paper. Publishers must make affidavit of publication covering each legal notice, stating under oath that the newspaper in which the advertisement appeared, is printed and published in Anaheim. The Plain Dealer charged that the News-Herald is not printed in this city, consequently is not eligible to print legal advertising. Awarding of the contract was held up, the matter being referred to City Attorney Weisel. Four deeds for the widening of Chestnut street from Los Angeles to Lemon were received. John Cassou also presented a deed to a strip of frontage on his Center street property at the corner of Clementine. In accordance with a proposal to widen Center from Clementine to Helena. City Attorney Weisel suggested that the deed be not recorded until deeds for all the frontage are received. Chairman Gates, of the park committee, stated that a gang of men are at work putting in the lawns of the new park, and that rock is being received for the lagoons. The committee is figuring on a power lawn mower for the park, and will report at a special meeting tonight. Mexican residents on the northside, who were recently taken into the city, want a policeman for especial duty in their neighborhood. A petition signed by 25 persons, asked the appointment of Senor Remandez. The request will be considered by the police committee. It is understood that these Santa Ana delegates stood for the nomination of J. H. Whitaker for postmaster. At the next meeting of the committee the three local members will insist upon final action and will stand upon excess of that provided in the Wright act, the county law is invalid and unconstitutional. The Orange county ordinance provides for a 90-day sentence, but this could not be imposed for a first offense, according to the decision which Wettlin quoted. The lower courts here, however, succeed in imposing jail sentences on convicted bootoleggers, by fining them up to $500, and if they are unable to pay the fine, ordering them committed to jail at the rate of $2 a day until the fine is paid—for a time not to exceed 180 days, the maximum sentence in the jurisdiction of a justice. Several who have been convicted, have been jailed in this way. A recent supreme court decision declared that this method of punishment was legal, although the appellant had declared that a fine was a debt, and that a defendant could not be imprisoned for a debt. At any rate, the cases pending will be prosecuted under the Wright act, with utmost vigor. "The district attorney's office is supporting the officers in their effort to wipe out bootlegging and blind pigs in Orange county." District Attorney A. P. Nelson stated. VICTOR LA MONT GETS LOCAL ENDORSEMENT Santa Ana Committeemen Supposed to Favor J. H. Whitaker, Ask for Further Time At a meeting of the Republican county central committee at the Elks hall on Monday afternoon the local committeemen, J. S. Howard, E. C. Dutton and D. Jessurun, reported that they had unanimously agreed to endorse Victor LaMont as postmaster of this city. At a previous meeting of the committee held at Santa Ana, it was agreed that at Monday's meeting the matter of selecting a postmaster for this city should be finally determined upon. It was therefore that with some surprise the local committee learned that the Santa Ana committeemen desired two weeks more time to consider the matter. The Santa Ana delegates were Ted Stevenson, Stanley Reinhaus, Charley Swanner and Dr. Cushman. It is understood that these Santa Ana delegates stood for the nomination of J. H. Whitaker for postmaster. At the next meeting of the committee the three local members will insist upon final action and will stand upon HUNDRED ARRESTS MADE IN PAST FEW WEEKS Activity of Sheriff Making Work for District Attorney Now that the county's flying dry squadron, under the leadership of Sheriff Sam Jernigan and Investigator O. K. Carr, has made nearly a hundred arrests in raids within the past few weeks, the district attorney's staff is brushing up on the law in anticipation of prosecutions which must follow who defendants plead their innocence. The passage of the Wright act, which empowered local authorities to prosecute under the Volstead act, brought about several changes in the PRICE OF THE MARINE The tonnage of the re-conditioned Leviathan is about 60,000 tons, 5000 tons greater than next largest ship. The United States has the distinction of owning not only the largest vessel, but the boat with the finest and most modern appointments. Her first voyage is scheduled for July 4. It will be a noteworthy event in American merchant marine history. If you are contemplating an European trip, why not include your party in the Leviathan's first passenger list? Anaheim, California, Thursday, May 3, 1923 GOOD ORCHARD ONE ACRE IN EXTENT RANCH IS SMALL IN AREA BUT LARGE IN THE YIELD OF PRODUCTS Allen Chitty Makes Good Profit Out of His Small Holding—Raises Choice Nursery Stock—Chitty Was Formerly a Cowboy of the Plains, and the Movie Picture Species of Cowman Excites His Mirth—Relates Some Tall Stories. Allen Chitty has as fine an orange orchard as there is to be found around here, although it is small—only being an acre in extent. But Mr. Chitty is a nurseryman and raises a choice quality of fruit. His place is located on Bush street, between Center and Broadway. His fruit brings him annually a good price. Years before Chitty owned a large grove east of here, but he sold it and moved into town. Before coming to Anaheim Mr. Chitty resided in two of the states of the northwest—Montana and Wyoming, magic word "chuck" is called by the cook all hands make a break for camp and the game stops. Never has a bunch of cow punchers, when on a drive, played a game of chance after nightfall. They are supposed to crawl into their blankets and sleep, so they will be fit for the next day's hard work. Some amusing things happen to these plainsmen when camp is pitched for the night. One cold rainy night up in Wyoming, Chitty says all hands made their bunks in the cook camp. During the night a severe wind ripped up the canvass tent moorings and the flapping of the tent upset every thing on the table, including a big can of red pepper. There was a lively getaway by all hands, who took chances on the rain outside instead of beneath the dilapidated tent filled with pepper. One cow puncher had a bushy crop, of whiskers and he got so much pepper in his beard that it was a week before he finally sneezed it all out. The plainsmen naturally grow rough in their outdoor hazardous work, but are always chivalrous, and respect virtuous womanhood. The cowboys hate a dude, as they themselves become unkempt in their personal makeup, and some go so far as to turn in at night just as they were, removing as few garments as necessary. It is related that one time out in Arizona when "chuck" was called in early morning, one old-timer would throw off his blanket, and with one jump FIREY CROSSES CAUSE MANY TO SPECULATE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE EMBLEMS A MYSTERY TO THE PEOPLE Two Erected on Los Angeles Street Thursday Night—One at Sycamore and the Other at South—Many People Witness Their Burning—Crosses Made of Iron Pipe, Wrapped With Burlap and Saturated With Oil—Was It I. W. W., Ku Klux or Boys? Whether any sinister significance attaches to the planting of flaming crosses in this neighborhood, or whether they were merely the pranks of exuberant school boys, is a question that is now agitating the minds of the police authorities. Officers profess to believe that they were conceived and planted by high school boys, and are disposed to attach no further significance to their appearance. Thursday night two crosses were erected in Anaheim, one on North Los Angeles street and the other on the Before coming to Anaheim Mr. Chitty resided in two of the states of the northwest—Montana and Wyoming, and also lived in Texas, Oklahoma and Arizona. He engaged extensively in the cattle business, and is rated as knowing a steer as far as he can see him. Chitty tells some interesting stories of the lives of the plainsmen, who are very unlike the movie species and when right are all straight shooters, standing for a square deal. In the earlier days on the frontiers these men in many instances were the law unto themselves, and the bush-ranger was old-time cowman is fast giving way to the old man and sub-divider as land all over the country is getting too valuable for cattle ranging on a large scale. One time up in Montana, Chitty told of how they rounded up the cattle in the spring so each man could get his calves for branding. Seven or eight wagons, each with its own cowboys to the number of 15 or 18, would start out for the mountains on its annual cleanup, when each cowman would string out his herd and drive them to market. The cattle having been fattened up on the ranges would now be ready for sale. It takes a good bunch of cowmen to drive a herd of several thousand across the plains and get them in without trouble. A herd of cattle after lying down for the night will stampede in a second and start running. A flash of a match, or a rabbit scampering through a herd, as it lays peacefully, will frighten them in an instant they are up and going. Sometimes a cowman will "mill" the herd in trying to stop them, but this is dangerous, for the cattle will lock horns while circling around, and kill themselves. Herders again will ride in front of the stampede and using slickers, which they slam into the faces of the steers, can stop them after a run of several miles. It has been known of certain herds to start running every night at a certain time after having been frightened during a stormy night by one thing or another. Ordinarily a band of cattle on a drive after bedding down, can be around here, although it is small—only being an acre in extent. But Mr. Chitty is a nurseryman and raises a choice quality of fruit. His place is located on Bush street, between Center and Broadway. His fruit brings him annually a good price. Years before Chitty owned a large grove east of here, but he sold it and moved into town. The plainsmen naturally grow rough in their outdoor hazardous work, but are always chivalrous, and respect virtuous womanhood. The cowboys hate a dude, as they themselves become unkempt in their personal makeups, and some go so far as to turn in at night just as they were, removing as few garments as necessary. It is related that one time out in Arizona when "chuck" was called in early morning, one old-timer would throw off his blanket, and with one jump would alight from his bunk—boots, spurs, pants and all, ready for the rush to the eats, as these hardy men are never troubled with dyspepsia. One time a squad of colored men were holding down an abandoned mine out in the territory, among whom was a barber, and the boys from the cow camp would go over once in a while for a shave and hair cut. One old heman, who for the love of a lady who had cast him aside, or for other reasons, had not indulged in a shave for several years. One day he decided to doll up and riding over to the tonsorial artist, laid down an order for a shave. His beard looked like a brush heap of wiry nettles, and when the colored barber sighted him, he gave an ultimatum that he could not amputate the cowboy's whiskers, as he did not have enough soap to loosen up the dirt, besides nothing short of a lawn mower would have been effective.

Ordinarily a band of cattle on a drive after bedding down, can be handled at night by two men who ride ceaselessly around them to see that nothing strange happens. Should any thing go wrong the whole bunch of 15 or 20 men are called into action to quiet the steers. The cowmen after long years on the range become rugged characters, but a man who plays fair is never molested. Should an onery cuss come along and look for a fight, he usually got what was coming to him. Chitty tells of a cow puncher, when on a drive, lined up as point man, being in the lead, and after several attempts to get a herd over a steep ravine, the boss investigated. He rode up and found out that the leader deliberately turned the herd each time they were ready to cross the gully. The owner was angry and would have shot the dishonest cow puncher off his horse if he did not quit his meanness. It was found out later that this fellow was holding the cattle back, so that the foreman would lose his job, which he was trying to get. Cowmen when on duty work throughout the day, but when on a roundup, if it so happens that all the men cannot be used handily those laying off, at once spread a blanket to one side and start gambling.

Miss Feraud was the daughter of an intimate friend of Royer's in France, and was taken charge of by the general, when a mere child, on the death of her father. She acted in the capacity of secretary and housekeeper. When the Royer will was read it was found that the bulk of his large estate was left to her, only $35,000 being bequeathed to his wife. Max Royer, a son, and Mrs. Louise Amstutz, a daughter, were given practically nothing, the will stating that they had been amply provided for during the life of the testator. Mrs. Royer and her son and daughter immediately filed suit to prevent probate of the will on the ground that undue influence was used over the sick man at the time the will was executed. It is charged that Royer was drugged by Miss Feraud or by her orders, and was not fully conscious of his acts when he signed the will. Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe and two physicians were witnesses to the will.

Thirty-five cars, the most dilapidated specimens that can be found in the county, have been entered. The Anaheim racers have been painted a firey red, and one of them will probably win the race. It is hoped that one of them, at least, will hold hold together until the end.

This restaurant has been selected by the Placentia Round Table club as a good place to conduct an Americanization school. Here has been established a flourishing school for all the Mexican adults in that district. In the early evenings, passersby are frequently moved to mirth when they hear loud choruses of men's voices reciting, with Spanish accent, "The carpenter goes to the tool box. He takes out a hammer. He takes out some nails. He drives a nail into a board. He drives another nail into a board," etc. Some interested evening loiterers have gone inside the restaurant, where visitors are always welcome.

These women are also being taught to sew. The Better Mothers' club has kindly donated some clever models for small children's clothes. Mrs. John Tuffree, chairman of the Americanization committee of the W. C. T. U., gives one afternoon every week to helping these women to make simple layettes. The citrus associations are helping to pay the rent of this school and the women's clubs of Placentia are heartily supporting the cause of Americanization. H.

CHAUTAUQUA OPENS NEXT SUNDAY NIGHT Popular Drama, "Turn to the Right," First Performance The 1923 chautauqua opens Sunday evening, the first number on the program being a drama, "Turn to the Right." This is said to be one of the most popular plays ever presented to the public. It ran 443 continuous nights in New York, and more than 300 nights in Chicago. It is presented by an excellent company. The performance will begin at 8 o'clock Sunday evening. The Ellison-White corporation is time vegetation, and his tribe is ever on the increase. No sooner does one clique come and go than another appears and all have the simon-pure, dyed-in-the-wool variety of stock that makes money for you while you wait. To listen to their tales of opulent wealth that awaits you just as soon as you hand in your little check is enough to make a man think he has not as yet awakened fro mhis long Rip Van Winkle sleep, and has missed opportunities to amass riches that would cause his heart to grow weak. All, or most all of them., have the only sure-shots open for the lethargic person with a string of long green. Some of the promoters are king-pins at using the printer's ink, and have the faculty of talking a bird off a bush. Others are more conservative and will tell you that haste makes waste, and their's is the best methods, and counsel you to look well before you leap. Some of the investors, after putting up their little hundred or two dollars, grow enthusiastic when a dividend of small proportions comes to them through the mail, and almost becomes exultant over their wise investment when the second divvy comes along. But when the third and fourth is received, and each of a smaller denomination than the first, they begin to wake up and realize that it is only their own money trekking back. But when here are long spaces of time between other returns the investor comes to the painful realization that all is not gold that glitters. It is true that a number of legitimate concerns are making good, as the saying goes, and their stockholders are getting a fair return for their money, but there is no denying the fact that many of the oil companies that operate throughout the country are mythical, and only exist in the fertile minds of the ubiquitous promoters. It might be well for the people who might desire to buy any and everything that is offered to them under the guise of good things in the oil game, to sleep over night on the proposition and then to continue to think long and hard about it before loosening the rubber off their rolls. Some traveling agents may prod you for your lassitude in buying their wares, but it is better to be safe than sorry. persons have done so.

BANKS CO-OPERATE IN FORD PURCHASE PLAN First National and American Savings Back Move "Our decision to co-operate in the Ford weekly purchase plan is simply in line with our general policy to extend every possible service to the citizens of this community." Wm. J. Siemann, president of the American Savings bank, said today relative to the announcement. "It is an excellent means of promoting thrift, the thing most essential to financial success and the attainment of ambitions." For several years now, banks generally have been conducting campaigns urging people to open Christmas savings accounts and vacation savings accounts and thousands of persons have done so. In many cases they started with small amounts the first year, but the second year their goal was higher until these savings have mounted into surprising figures. "The automobile has become a necessity to modern times. It is essential to successful business and it is unequalled as a means of providing pleasure for the family. "The effect of the plan is most wholesome. It is certain to promote a new feeling toward the automobile and will tend to create a greater regard for automobile ownership. "So why not save to own an automobile, just as you do for a vacation or for Christmas? They are all pleasure-giving adventures that cost little or no effort." The Riverside Giants, crack colored ball team played the second game with the Anaheim Elks Sunday on the high school diamond and were walloped to the tune of 12 to 3. Two weeks ago the Giants defeated the local team by a close margin, and they brought a large delegation of colored folks with them Sunday to see them do it again. It was a sadly disappointed bunch of coons that trekked back to Riverside in the evening. Poverty is not only inconvenient, but some of the time it seems downright foolish.
