We have since the mass meeting in Anaheim advocated the nomination of A. L. Bush for the position, but after a thorough investigation in regard to the public opinion relative to the qualifications possessed by these gentlemen, as possible legislators, we find almost unanimity of feeling in favor of Mr. Guinn, even his personal enemies conceding the indoubted ability of the On Aug. 1st the prohibitory game law expired.

A most brilliant meteor passed across the sky from the zonith to the horizon last evening, breaking seemingly, as it vanished from view, into a thousand pieces, and brilliantly illuminated.

Two have been galloping up and down the country now for months. One is the statement that American farmers, due to economic conditions in Europe, have lost their foreign markets. The other is the statement that farm prices go up or down as exports of farm products go up or down, and the prosperity of the American farmer depends upon an increase in his exports. statements to the contrary if not to deceive the farmer in an effort to gain party advantage? Why do Democrats leaders in the league of nations propaganda misrepresent these facts? Why does the literature sent out by various organizations backing the league of nations and financed in some mysterious way, misrepresent these facts? The answer is obvious. They are more interested in gaining party advantage than in helping the farmer. They are more interested in getting the United States entangled in Europe than they are in solving our agricultural problems. They would willingly sacrifice the prosperity and welfare of our agricultural interests if by so doing they could gain temporary party advantage or tie us up with the league of nations. POLITICAL QUACKS THE PEOPLE' SWORST ENEMIES To hear the socialists and near socialists bleat you might suppose the worst enemies of the American people are those who create and maintain industries, employ labor and promote business enterprises. The real truth is that the worst enemy of the American people is the political demagogue who for the promotion of his own selfish interests and ambitions is trying to produce calamity in this country by preaching it, who is sowing the seed of envy, hatred and prejudice among the people, and whose acknowledged object is to destroy private payrolls in this country in order that government political payrolls may be lengthened. The worst enemy of the American people is not the producer, either employer or employed, of useful commodities. The people's worst enemy is the power-seeking politician who is continually seeking to increase the acrats, in the nature of things, can know little or nothing about Alaska, about all they can accomplish is to prevent anybody from doin ganything. Unquestionably it was this deplorable situation which caused the president to make Alaska the main objective of his western trip, taking with him the heads of the three departments most directly interested. And, having seen Secretary Hoover announces that action will follow. "Within three months," 'the secretary says, things will be doing. He does not expect any "rush" to Alaska, but does predict that in due time Alaska will be cut into four or five full fledged states. Of course there are as good fish in the sea as ever were caught, but you can't catch them sitting on shore. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Estate of Rosa H. Mickle, Deceased. Notice is hereby given, by the undersigned, Walter W. Mickle, Jr., administrator with the will annexed of the estate of Rosa H. Mickle, Deceased, to the creditors of and all persons having claims against the said deceased to file them with the necessary vouchers to the said administrator with the will annexed at his place of business, the office of Weisel & Stark, Rooms 3 and 4, Golden State National Bank Building, in the City of Anaheim, Orange County, State of California, within four months after the first publication of this notice. Dated, this 26th day of July, 1923. WALTER W. MICKLE, JR., Administrator with the Will Annexed Two have been galloping up and down the country now for months. One is the statement that American farmers, due to economic conditions in Europe, have lost their foreign markets. The other is the statement that farm prices go up or down as exports of farm products go up or down, and the prosperity of the American farmer depends upon an increase in his exports. These lies originated with the advocates of the league of nations and America's becoming involved in European affairs. They were invented in order to deceive the agricultural sections of the country, which are strongly against becoming involved in Europe's quarrels. They are being kept in the saddle largely by that group of propagandists who through the press and from the platform and pulpit are waging an incessant campaign in favor of a departure from American traditions and a repudiation of American principles, and our involvement and entanglement in the age-old quarrels of Europe. Every official document touching upon the subject of foreign markets is issued by any department of our government, furnishes conclusive proof that the farmer today is selling Europe vastly greater quantities of agricultural products than he did in any year prior to the world war. The American farmer is selling more to Europe today than he did prior to the world war, because Europe is not yet back to its normal agricultural production. The nearer it approaches the production of crops and livestock of pre-war days, the less the American farmer will sell to Europe. Those who hold out to him the hope of increased markets in the event Europe is put on its feet are doing him the worst possible injury. His trouble today is over-production, and to ask him to stimulate production in the expectation of getting a market, which he never will have, is to add to his misfortunes. The truth is, the American farmer must face the fact that he will sell less and less to Europe from now on. His problem is either to increase his domestic market or decrease his own production. The lie that farm prices go up or down with farm exports is even more inexcusable than its running mate. There never has been any ground for such a statement. The records of farm prices and farm exports for ever emotions is trying to produce calamity in this country by preaching it, who is sowing the seed of envy, hatred and prejudice among the people, and whose acknowledged object is to destroy private payrolls in this country in order that government political payrolls may be lengthened. The worst enemy of the American people is not the producer, either employer or employed, of useful commodities. The people's worst enemy is the power-seeking politician who is continually seeking to increase the activities, annoyances and oppressions of government and thereby to pile more taxes on the already bending backs of the American people. The demagogues talk loudly about emancipating the people from the control of "the big interests." But they themselves, in most instances, are agents of the biggest, most selfish and wasteful of all special interests, and that is the tax boosting interest which is out to load more tax eaters on the public payroll through schemes of state socialism such as political ownership of business and the multiplication of boards, bureaus, commissions and other public money spending schemes in the name of "reform." These demagogues cry out against the "high cost of living," but never mention the fact that one of the chief factors in boosting living costs is a cost of government increased out of proportion to the cost of other commodities. The greatest menace to the prosperity of the country is the demagogue who argues the non-existence of prosperity in the fact of a thousand manifest circumstances which give him the lie. In certain portions of the country such demagogues are inducing farmers to destroy the value of their own farms by seeking to establish the idea that farming has become permanently unprofitable and the farmer himself a hopeless bankrupt. Nothing would help this country so much right now as a more general realization of the good fortune of the American people, in that in this era post war reconstruction they live here rather than elsewhere in the world. America is today the envy of the world; yet leather lunged preachers of calamity are trying to induce the people of the United States to abandon the time honored pathways along which they have journeyed to their present envied position, for the crooked road of European state socialism which leads into the swamps and quicksand of real disaster.

WEISEL & STARK, Attorneys for Executrix. 7-26-5t NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT Anaheim Eucalyptus Water Co., Location Principal Place of Business, Anaheim, Orange County, California. Notice is hereby given that at a special meeting of the board of directors held on the 7th day of July, 1923, Assessment No. 15, of three ($3.00) dollars per share was levied on the capital stock of the corporation, payable on the 12th day of July, 1923, to the secretaray of the company, at Anaheim, Orange County, California. Any stock upon which this assessment shall remain unpaid on the 15th day of August, 1923, will be delinquent and advertised for sale at public auction, and unless payment is made before, will be sold on the 13th day of September, 1923, at 1 o'clock P.M., to pay for The truth is, the American farmer must face the fact that he will sell less and less to Europe from now on. His problem is either to increase his domestic market or decrease his own production. The lie that farm prices go up or down with farm exports is even more inexcusable than its running mate. There never has been any ground for such a statement. The records of farm prices and farm exports for ever a generation show that there is not the scintilla of truth in this allegation. To the contrary, the years of greatest exports have, as a rule, been years of lowest prices in the articles exported. No better illustration can be offered of that fact than the relation between cotton exports and prices. For a period of years prior to the world war, cotton exports ran from 8,500,000 to 9,500,000 bales a year, and the prevailing price was 11 to 12 cents a pound, and our exports are only half the pre-war record. Two years ago this month, cotton was selling at 12 to 13 cents, while exports were over a million more bales than they are today. We are exporting more pork products today than a year ago or than the average for any of the past three years, while hogs are selling at less than they did a year ago or the average for the last three years. The farmer well knows that in 1921 hereceived less for practically every variety of his products than any previous period for a number of years, yet the exports of farm products in that year wore the greatest of any year in American history. These are the facts: Why does the Democratic national committee press them? Why does it send out of post war reconstruction they live here rather than elsewhere in the world. America is today the envy of the world; yet leather lunged preachers of calamity are trying to induce the people of the United States to abandon the time honored pathways along which they have journeyed to their present enviied position, for the crooked road of European state socialism which leads into the swamps and quicksand of real disaster. The quack who stands under the gasoline torch and lectures his auditors on their diseases until all of them develop symptoms is not helping the crowd nor does he intend to do so. He is looking forward to the sale of his fake nostrum after he has made his hearers fell that they are about to pass out unless they buy a bottle of his snake oil or juniper juice. The sicker he can make people feel the better chance of disposing of his colored and seasoned rain water volubly advertised as a sure cure for all that could possibly all anybody. That is the game of the political quack doctor. He can get away with it periodically, and then must travel some other route until a new sucker crop develops. People who can retain their senses even in the mace of a ballyhoo will keep their money in their pockets and continue to rely on the good old family physician. SEE RELIEF FOR ALASKA Pinchot and his assistants so completely bound up Alaska with bureaucratic red tape that its progress was stopped for nearly twenty years. We have seen it stated, apparently on authority, that no less than 128 "bureauz" are exercising from Washington jurisdiction over the unfortunate peoples of Alaska. As the bureau- Assessment No. 15, of three ($3.00) dollars per share was levied on the capital stock of the corporation, payable on the 12th day of July, 1923, to the secretary of the company, at Anheim, Orange County, California. Any stock upon which this assessment shall remain unpaid on the 16th day of August, 1923, will be delinquent and advertised for sale at public auction, and unless payment is made before, will be sold on the 13th day of September, 1923, at 1 o'clock P.M., to pay for the delinquent assessment, together with the cost of advertising and expense of sale.
