We observed a soda water wagon in town the other night. A certain evidence that summer is near at hand. Some of the Anaheim vineyards have been in bloom for more than a week, whilst in others not a speck of green can be seen. Attention is called to the advertisement of Prof. O. S. Fowler. He lectures this afternoon to ladies and in the evening to gentlemen. The loads of orange trees that we see continually passing through town, indicate a desire on the part of our farmers to improve and beautify their homes. We examined a liliputian suit made by the impressive Mendleson for the young heir to the Washington market. Our tailor is good on small suits. In the case of the people vs. Sin Si Wau for misdemeanor the jury failed to agree. The case will be tried again during the coming week. We have been requested to announce that Dr. Hardin has procured some pure vaccine matter. Anxious mothers will do well to act accordingly.

HUGH POINT The country office Department, but it does actually costs subject, in a that for every all federal purp recieved only 1 per cent. It is not a lavish tide of the seasideided.

Higble and Co. the store formerly occupied by the "Woolen Mill Depot" and will open, in a short time, an ice cream saloon. Mr. A. G. Beebe is now at work fitting up the interior of the store. The clearness and purity of our atmosphere was well illustrated the other morning. A gentleman standing in his orchard at 6 o'clock A.M. distinctly saw a steamer on the ocean. The distance could not have been less than eighteen miles. Notes by our San Juan Capistrano correspondent—San Juan has improved some since our last visit; not with the rapid strides of Anaheim, and its surrounding country, but still evincing signs of thrift and progressiveness. The old land mark—the Mission church with its picturesque ruins and ancient chime of bells, the long adobe residence of Don Juan Abila and its neighboring cluster of tumble down houses, still remain to remind us of the good old days when cattle were plentiful and exertion needless. A very marked improvement has taken place in the hotel of our good friend, Iler. Comfortable rooms and a well spread table please the most fastidious guest. Judge Egan still holds forth in the telegraph office; punishes offenders and dispenses justice with the same conscientiousness of bygone times. The Judge is a treasure to San Juan an a good genial friend to every one. Dolores still distributes benzine and tanglefoot, besides keeping a very superior article of old rye. The town is well supplied with stores. Monslour Oliver keeps a good supply of all things necessary to the comfort of his French brethren, of Otto Strodthoff came in from Jerome A.T. on Saturday afternoon and will remain on a visit to his relatives for a couple of weeks. Otto has been an employee of Senator Clark's copper mines at Jerome for some seven years, and informs us that when the news of the Senator's election came from Montana, the entire town of Jerome turned out to celebrate. Otto is one of the brightest boys who ever started out from Anaheim and his many friends are glad to see him again. Frank Ey came over from Santa Ana on Monday. He reports his town on the edge of a boom. He sold last month over $20,000 worth of property and says that over $100,000 worth of property changed hands at the county seat during that time. Miss Emma Feather visited with her cousin Miss Allen of Arlington last week and returned home on Monday.

In th period of its achieved resu dians that wide interest in the Courts ment of land points in the play for the Mr. Collett, the board has understanding the customs people gives of two recent point out how gently the Inc the plans to nized position formla. "In all the ANAHEIM GAZETTE upon. Five new directors will be elected. Those who will be probably chosen are the following: J. B. Neff, G. A. Hunter, F. Shanley, L. W. Kirby and J. B. Rae. Henry Watson, one of the oldest and best known residents of Orange county died at his home in Olive on Friday morning aged 87 years. J. G. Shoemaker was in from Olive on Monday. He informs us that his for the construction of bee hives. Mr. Shoemaker is one of the best known bee raisers and horticulturists at Olive. Ed. Kraemer was in from Placentia on Monday. He informs us that his brother Sam has offered the Southern Pacific six acres for a depot site and that many railroad rumors fill the air. Sam has recently given a Los Angeles company an option upon eighty acres of land north of Carlton where they will begin boring for oil as soon as the crop of wheat is taken off this summer. The point selected is far north than any of the wells so far located but it is considered a favorable location and if oil is struck it will be piped down to the sliding at Yorba. Sam has an interest in the oil and should borings show that oil may be had, he may begin borings for oil on his own behalf. Painter Middleham has been decorating the front of Mrs. Koll's building on Center street with a new coat of paint. HUGH POSTAL SERVICE The country knows that the Post-office Department does not make money, but it does not know how little it actually costs. An authority on the subject, in a recent article, states Collett, "the Indians have shown a better understanding of their case and the work lies before them, than ever before. They also show interest and satisfaction in what has been done for them." At North Fork the Indians had an enthusiastic meeting. A great many subscribed to the California Indian Herald and showed a keen desire to learn more of conditions among their people throughout the state. The members of the North Fork Auxiliary gave a dance and social with Mr. Collett and his co-workers as guests of honor. Mr. Collett was assisted by A. C. Gillis, W. G. Walker, and W. W. Weaver. Gillis and Walker are Indian members of the board. The Indians proved themselves the best of entertainers and provided a most pleasant evening. Gillis sang some of his own tribal songs to a most enthusiastic audience. At Mariposa the meeting of the Indians was held in the Court House. This fact seems significant in that the Indians have been seeking recognition in the courts of California and the gathering in the court room appeared to symbolize their ultimate victory. The court house at Mariposa was built in 1854, three years after the Government had made the eighteen treaties with the Indians guaranteeing them their rights in California lands. The meeting in the old building which has weathered the years much more successfully than the treaties, seemed peculiarly appropos. County officials at Mariposa take a remarkable sane and just attitude toward the Indian people. There is no apparent discrimination against the native inhabitants. The court room was opened without question for the Indian meeting, county officers showing the greatest interest and cordiality. If this attitude on the employment, according to J. Minich, representative of the Orange post, who appeared before the supervisors with an appeal for action. "Many Legion men are in need of jobs, but the road contractors are hiring Hindus and other foreigners instead," Minich declared. He mentioned a certain firm of contractors now engaged in completing a contract in this county. The board informed Minich that it was powerless to bring direct pressure to bear, inasmuch as court decisions have invalidated the practice of inserting discriminative labor clauses in contracts. But the supervisors gave assurance, however that whatever influence they could wield unofficially would be devoted to correcting the situation. Relief might be secured, it was suggested, by means of "gentlemen's agreements." Contractors have defended their practice of employing foreign labor, it was added, on the ground that more "work" is delivered by the foreigners. He is not employed as "cheap labor," the contractors declare, as they pay just as high wages to the foreigner as to the American laborer. But the foreigner, it is said, will stand more "driving" and therefore produce more results. Whatever comes from the investigations which will be undertaken, one thing is certain, and that is that President Coolidge will stand even higher in the estimation of the people than ever by reason of his straightforward, honest and manly conduct of the affair. The mania for investigation which has possessed the senate of the present Congress, to the exclusion of business of national importance, has HUGH POSTAL SERVICE The country knows that the Post Office Department does not make money, but it does not know how little it actually costs. An authority on the subject, in a recent article, states that for every $100 raised in 1923 for all federal purposes, the mail service recieved only 98 cents, or less than 1 per cent. It is not a large bill when the magnitude of the service rendered is considered. There are more than 3,000 cities in the United States in which all the mail is delivered daily to individuals homes and offices by letter carriers. The railway mail service handles approximately 9,256,000,000 pieces of first class mail, 113,000,000 pieces of registered mail, and more than 7,000,000,000 pieces of second third and fourth class mail. Then there is the air mail, a recent development, but a branch of the service that has already reached large proportions. There are now 79 airplanes in use for this purpose, with a record of 1,809,000 miles flown in 1923, and 68,875,840 pieces of first class mail carried. None of this includes the rural service taken care of by 44,439 rural routes which serve 6,488,000 families and over which the carriers cover 1,173,000 miles daily. Postal savings deposits and money orders are other departments running up into big figures. Chewing gum and the sale of five and ten-cent articles have built the Wrigley building in Chicago and the Woolworth building in New York. The tremendous structure of the postal service is built up on service which is paid for largely in one-cent and two-cent amounts. The person who buys a few two-cent stamps or who mails half a dozen letters in a week or insures a package for 15 cents does not realize the size of the organization that sees those letters to their destinations. In a tax-paying month it is interesting to think of some of the special items which those taxes pay for. NOTABLE PROGRESS OF CALIFORNIA INDIANS Interesting facts that show the remarkable progress of California Indians in their home and community. WHATVER COMES FROM THE INVESTIGATIONS WHICH WILL BE UNDERTAKEN, ONE THING IS CERTAIN, AND THAT IS THAT PRESIDENT COOLidge will stand even higher in the estimation of the people than ever by reason of his straightforward, honest and manly conduct of the affair. The mania for investigation which has possessed the senate of the present Congress, to the exclusion of business of national importance, has become nauseating to every citizen having the least sense of justice and fairness. A British physician says that women have caused half of the world's wars. And they win all the arguments.

G. Collett, Executive Representative of the Indian Board of Cooperation, in an extensive trip practically every Indian community in northern California. The work of the Indian Board of Cooperation began fourteen years ago for the purpose of promoting the social and economic welfare of California Indians. A list of directors of the board includes such notable names as Dr. David Starr Jordan and the late Dr. George Wharton James. In the comparatively short period of its service the board has achieved results among California Indians that have awakened nationwide interest in these people. Justice in the Courts and an equitable settlement of land claims are two salient points in the Board's fight for fair play for the Indian people. Mr. Collett, whose long service with the board has given him an intimate understanding of Indian nature and the customs and character of these people gives an interesting sketch of two recent meetings, that serves to point out how zealously and intelligently the Indians have responded to the plans to secure them a recognized position as citizens of California. "In all the places visited," said Mr. County, California, marked "Bid for the Grading and Graveling of East Street, North Street and Broad Street." The work to be done in accordance with the profiles, plans and specifications adopted by the Board of Supervisors, on file in the office of said Board and in the office of the County Superintendent of Highways in the Court House.
