VOLUME LIV CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE ARE NUMEROUS STRENUOUS CAMPAIGN EXPECTED BETWEEN THIS AND ELECTION DAY Warm Contests for Congressman, State Senator and Assemblyman—Two Men in the Race for Supervisor in the Third District—Hot fight for Central Committeemen in the Various Districts — Two Complete Republican Tickets in the Field Here for Members of the Committee. There are more candidates in the race for office this year than in any year in recent history. Almost every man seeking office from the presidency of the United States down the line to the Republican County Central Committee has one or more opponents. The only two candidates on the ballot who will get into office by default are Judge F. C. Drumm, of Depart- McCullough, W. A. Stone, W. H. H. Hunt, Barnet G. Rogers, Bruce Moore, Victor A Porter, J. H. Tennant. THE STATE SENATORSHIP Chester Kline of San Jacinto has announced his candidacy for the senatorship in the Thirty-ninth district, and bases his claim to the suffrages of the electors upon his belief that it is "Riverside's turn" to name that official. But Mr. Kline must be apprised of the fact that the gentlemen's agreement hitherto existing providing for alternating nominations has come to an end, in the fact that Orange county will be erected into a senatorial district by itself in the next legislature. Indeed, had it not been for the failure of the legislature two years ago to pass the apportionment bill, following the census of 1920, the gentlemen's agreement would have been a thing of the past at that time. As a matter of fact, when Walter Eden was elected Senator four years ago, it was generally conceded that his nomination was the last one to be made under this agreement. Thus, Mr. Kline has no claims upon the electorate at this time, so far as the gentlemen's agreement is concerned, but when Riverside and Imperial are placed in a senatorial district by themselves, he may heave his hat in There are more candidates in the race for office this year than in any year in recent history. Almost every man seeking office from the presidency of the United States down the line to the Republican County Central Committee has one or more opponents. The only two candidates on the ballot who will get into office by default are Judge F. C. Drumm, of Department Three, Superior Court, and Leon Whitsel, supervisor from the Fourth district. There are seven candidates in the race for the Presidency, but is doubtful if any man is sufficiently well posted on the political situation to name them all. The only ones who will be in the contest when the electoral college holds a session are Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts, John W. Davis of West Virginia and Robert M. LaFollette of Wisconsin. In the Third Congress District there are two candidates seeking the Republican nomination. They are Phil D. Swing of El Centro, who now holds the job and Senator Edward Sample, of San Diego. The Democrats also have a man for the position on the November ballot, and no doubt the Prohibitionists and the Bolsheviks will put forward candidates. For State Senator, 39th District, there is a contest between Thomas B. Talbert of Orange county and Chester Kline of Riverside county. As there are three counties in the district this promises to be a pretty warm race. For assembyman, a third candidate has bobbed up at the eleventh hour, which promises to split the vote in the northern end of the county. Dr. C. D. Ball of Santa Ana, the present title holder, wants to be re-elected and against him are S. C. Hartranft of Fullerton and W. B. Allen of Anaheim. Up to a few days ago the race was supposed to be a showdown between Hartranft and Ball, but Allen slipped in just in time to qualify, making the contest three cornered. Supervisor William Schumacher, whose friends expected a unanimous vote for him in his candidacy for reelection because of his splendid work for his district, also has an opponent, who came in at the eleventh hour. Woodward of Fullerton, the man. Even for county central committee there are warm contests in nearly every district. In this district gentlemen's agreement would have been a thing of the past at that time. As a matter of fact, when Walter Eden was elected Senator four years ago, it was generally conceded that his nomination was the last one to be made under this agreement. Thus, Mr. Kline has no claims upon the electorate at this time, so far as the gentlemen's agreement is concerned, but when Riverside and Imperial are placed in a senatorial district by themselves, he may heave his hat in to the ring, and at that time will have nothing but the best wishes of Orange county in his candidacy. Orange county, is this year, presenting the name of Thomas B. Talbert of Huntington Beach for the senatorship, and it believes there is no man better qualified than he in the entire district to meet the issues confronting us at this time. As to the great question of water development and conservation, which he has studied assiduously for many years past, he is by odds the best informed man in the district. He has behind him the solid support of the County of Orange and also stands most favorably with the voters in Riverside and Imperial counties. That he will be elected by a large majority, as he should be, there is not a particle of doubt. This old time gentlemen's agreement was never much in favor in this county, for it felt that when a man goes to the senate for a single term he comes to be regarded as a lightweight among the solons at Sacramento. He receives no important committee assignments and in other matters of importance is cast aside and is of very little use to his district or the state. He goes to the senate for a single term and then returns to the obscurity of private life. This agreement grew out originally from the animosities existing between San Bernardino and Riverside following the creation of the latter county, which cut away from the former. Neither one of these counties would stand for a senator from the other for more than a single term, and so the agreement was passed on to us, over the objections of many electors down this way. It is now happily at an end, and with the erection of Orange county into a senatorial district we shall aim to elect a good man to the place and keep him there. That is the way to have a man of influence in the senate at Sacramento. That's the way to get your money' worth in the important items of state legislation.

A survey of 50 private water utilities in California which are faced with an acute water shortage as a result of the long sustained drought period probably will be undertaken by the state railroad commission within the next few days. The survey will be made for the purpose of putting into effect such conservation measures as will prevent actual distress. At the same time a public reprimand has been issued to the cities of Riverside and Colton, through their mayors for failure to conserve power as demanded by the commission. These two cities, it was claimed, have made a saving of only about 2 per cent of their energy consumption where 25 per cent was expected and has been made elsewhere.

There is second prize of $100 and a third prize of $50. Secretaries or managers of the winning local associations will receive personal prizes ranging from $15 to $50. Individual grower prizes for the most careful and accurate estimates of orchard yield, will range from $5 to $25. The local associations showing the best general record will receive trophies. Association officials report that the quality of this year's walnuts will compare favorably with that of last year's harvest. REPUBLICAN CLUB HOLDS FIRST MEETING Enthusiastic G. O.

A meeting was held at Fullerton last week at which all the Anaheim councilmen, City Manager Price, City Attorney Webb, City Engineer Hapgood and Superintendent Hannum of the power house were present. The Fullerton council and all others interested officials were in attendance. As there is no law authorizing a single joint plant and an act of the legislature would be required to legalize such a project, the feasibility of constructing two separate, but connected plants is now being considered by the boards. This, it is claimed, could be done under existing laws, and Mayor Metcalf states that by having the two connected a saving of $100,000 would be made over the construction of two individual plants. Another advantage of this plan would be that each plant would serve as a supplement to the other, to help out in case of emergency. Committees are now investigating the different kinds of plant in use in Southern California and getting figures on the cost. Those three kinds of plants are the Deisel engine operated by low gravity crude oil; the steam plant, by natural gas; and the gas engine plant. The Deisel plant at 62nd and Western Avenue, Los Angeles, already has been inspected, and also the gas plant on the Murphy lease, which is used to manufacture gasoline. Within a short time inspections also will be made of the plants of San Diego and Riverside and possibly of Taft. A report has been received from the Palo Alto authorities on its Deisel engine plant. WALNUT CROP ALMOST UP TO LAST YEAR'S Notwithstanding the serious shortage of rainfall during the winter and spring, and the fact that growing conditions in many districts have been somewhat unsatisfactory, it appears from the midsummer crop estimate just completed by the California Walnut Growers' Association that this quality of this year's walnuts will compare favorably with that of last year's harvest. REPUBLICAN CLUB HOLDS FIRST MEETING Enthusiastic G. O. P.'s Lay Plans For Vigorous Campaign The first meeting of the Coolidge and Daves club was held at Judge J. S. Howard's offices Tuesday evening. There was a good attendance and the gathering was an enthusiastic one. Judge Howard, president of the club, was in the chair, with Secretary Frank Tausch. The club is laying plans for a vigorous campaign and it is expected that a united and harmonious party will be lined up for battle when the polls open in November. The club endorsed the candidacy of Edward Sample of San Diego for the Republican nomination for congress. While other candidates were discussed, and it was evident that sentiment was practically unanimous for Tom Talbert for state senator, S. C. Hartnft for assemblyman and William Schumacher for supervisor, it was deemed advisable at this time to endorse only the Congressional nominee. The club is enthusiastic for the Republican national ticket. ASSAULTED AND ROBBED Although the entire Orange county Sheriff's office as well as four Long Beach detectives, are working on the case, no definite claw has yet been uncovered which would lead to the arrest of the two men who brutally assaulted Meyer Van Warmer, Los Angeles taxicab driver near Long Beach late Monday night, took $85 from him and then escaped in his taxicab after throwing him into a ditch half full of water. Van Warmer, who maintains an independent stand at the Hotel Rosalyn was approached by two men who wished to go to Santa Ana, via Long Beach Monday evening. After the party had stopped at an apartment in the eastern section of Long Beach the trip continued. Two miles west of Westminster one of the men slugged Van Warmer into semi-consciousness, steered the car into a field at the roadside and then proceeded to rob him. The two thugs debated as to what prices advancing on High Grade Oranges. Citrus shippers are rejoicing over an announcement that a new schedule going into force last Sunday cut the time on Orange shipments from the packing houses to New York two days. This will be of great benefit to the industry, as it means that the fruit will reach the eastern market in much better condition and better prices will be received. Hitherto it required 12 days to carry a carload of oranges from this section to New York. Under the new schedule a car will be in transit from the concentration point in California to Chicago 154 hours or 45 hours under the old schedule. The total shipment of fruit from Northern Orange county last week amounted to 350 cars, an increase of fifteen over the previous week. This includes the shipments from Anaheim/Fullerton, Placentia, Olive, La Habra and Garden Grove. The total shipments from Southern California up to last Friday morning aggregate 30,333 cars against 32,441 to the same date last year. It is pointed out, however, that 15 per cent boxes are packed in a car this year than last year, consequently more fruit has been shipped than a year ago. Prices have been gradually advancing on the best grade of fruit. FARM BUREAU DEMANDS TAX RATE REDUCTION The determination of the Orange county supervisors to cut the tax rate by street governmental economy has met the hearty approval of the farm bureau, declared A. M. Stanley, secretary of the bureau. "While this rate is exceedingly low in comparison with that of other counties carrying on the same activities, we believe further curtailment of expense should be made in line with the retrenchment that general business lines are making in their effort to get back to before the war conditions. "Looking toward tax reduction, the farm bureau has an energetic committee busy studying this problem. It heartily endorses the budget system employed in the different county government departments, and joins the request of the supervisors to make these budgets as low as possible. In compliance with this request, the agricultural extension service, which was among the first to file its budget, lopped off more than a thousand dollars." WALNUT CROP ALMOST UP TO LAST YEAR'S Notwithstanding the serious shortage of rainfall during the winter and spring, and the fact that growing conditions in many districts have been somewhat unsatisfactory, it appears from the midsummer crop estimate just completed by the California Walnut Growers' Association that this year's production of walnuts will be only 2.7 per cent less than that of the 1923 harvest. According to Carlyle Thorpe, manager of the association, the associated growers will this year harvest about 47,492,000 pounds compared to 48,810,000 pounds for last year's crop. It is the belief of the association that the new crop estimate will prove far more reliable than that of the previous year, based, as it is, upon the new system of estimating, worked out by Prof L. D. Batchelor, of the Division of Orchard Management, University of California. The association this year offered a group of trophies and cash prizes to local growers' associations for the sake of getting quicker action and greater accuracy in the compiling of the crop report. This resulted in keener grower interest, it is asserted, and the central organization was able to get prompt, and, it is believed accurate results. Locals representing more than 90 per cent of the association's entire yearly output of walnuts reported promptly, and the probable harvest was based upon percentages secured from these estimates. The Central Association obtains a midsummer estimate each year in order to ascertain approximately how many thousands dependent stand at the Hotel Rosalyn was approached by two men who wish to go to Santa Ana, via Long Beach Monday evening. After the party had stopped at an apartment in the eastern section of Long Beach the trip continued. Two miles west of Westminister one of the men slugged Van Warmer into semi-consciousness, steered the car into a field at the roadside and then proceeded to rob him. The two thugs debated as to what should be done with their victim, finally throwing him into a ditch partially filled with water and hitting him another blow on the head as he lay in the trench. The bandits then climbed into the taxi and escaped toward Huntington Beach. Van Warmer made his way to a nearby service station and was brought to the Sesame Hospital at Long Beach, where he was found to be suffering from nine lacerations about the head. Van Warmer expressed the belief when taken to police headquarters, that the assault may have been the work of rival taxi drivers, several of whom have threatened him in the past. Orange County valencias continue to draw high prices on the New York auction market, the best grade George Washington, of the Tustin Hills Citrus association, bringing between $6.50 and $7.50 a box on the market. The high mark for the year was obtained by Orange county fruit several days ago with a price of $7.80. Advance, the second grade orange of the Tustin house, brought between $5 and $6 a box and the Martha Washington third grade, was quoted at from $3.50 to $4.50 a box. The market was strong and Tustin Hills association members are well pleased with prices obtained. Looking toward tax reduction, the farm bureau has an energetic committee busy studying this problem. It heartily endorses the budget system employed in the different county government departments, and joins the request of the supervisors to make these budgets as low as possible. In compliance with this request, the agricultural extension service, which was among the first to file its budget, lopped off more than a thousand dollars from its annual appropriation. This economy is in line with the farm bureau policy even though it effects a co-operating agency. The bureau itself receives no aid from the county but is financed by membership dues. "A study of our county expenditures," continued Stanley, "shows that our schools cost a large amount of tax money annually. The school system is of incalculable importance and should not be hampered in any way. But school officials could possibly save a large amount of expense by a practice of more rigid economy." NEWS FROM CAMP RO-KI-LI The American Legion Post 131-of Santa Ana, through its Commander Mr. E. T. McFadden, presented to Camp Ro-Ki-Li, a beautiful new 8x12 wool bunting flag, last Sunday, at noon, in a very beautiful ceremony. Immediately after church services, the one hundred scouts and scout officials at Ro-Ki-Li, formed a huge hollow square in front of the new seventy foot flag pole raised the week previous, and Mr. McFadden, in a short address, presented the new flag to Camp Ro-Ki-Li.

"The people of the nation have become alert to the fact that the Colorado river is one of its greatest resources. Its fructifying waters, when spread upon our arid acres, will produce food for hundreds of thousands. The restless energy of its cascades will light and warm a million homes, and turn the wheels of an empire's industry. To develop and use the nation's fuel is to impoverish; but to develop and use the Colorado river's power is to establish contact with the Infinite and to avail ourselves of that which enriches without being consumed, and is renewed forever. "Accordingly, the problem of the Colorado's development calls for the application of the highest statesmanship and for a vision which comprehends the nation. To conceive of it as special or local or partisan is to be unworthy of the splendid gift. "My policy with reference to Colorado river is embraced in the statement of a few fundamentals. "It is a resource of the people. It must be preserved for the people and its benefits accrue to the people. "The waters of the Colorado should be distributed in accordance with the terms of the Colorado river compact framed at Santa Fe. It is fair to all and abundantly provides for all. "Control over the power resources should remain in the government through established agencies, logically the federal power commission, as proposed by the Republican National Platform. "Flood control should be provided for immediately. The project should be unembarrassed by special undertakings, such as the All American canal, which tend to confuse and delay. "In distributing the waters of the Colorado, established rights gained through beneficial use should be protected first. Of such sort are the interests of Imperial Valley land owners and farmers.

KEEPS COOL AS RESCUERS PUT TO SEA How cool could you keep if, while you were bathing in the surf, a riptide should suddenly sweep you out to the sea several hundred yards. Would you float nonchalantly while rescuers hurried to your side and prepared to take you in tow? This story is about H. L. Richardson, 30, of Los Angeles, who owes his life today probably to the fact that he kept cool under circumstances as hereinbefore outlined. Richardson was rescued from the surf at Fifteenth street, Newport Beach, Sunday afternoon by a party consisting of J. A. Essex of Pomona, Earl Howarth of Los Angeles, and S. J. Richardson, of Los Angeles, a brother. First aid treatment was administered by Roy Shafer, life guard. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson were swimming in the surf when the tide changed about 3:30 o'clock, according to a report made to City Marshal J. A. Porter. Mrs. Richardson, who was closer in, made the shore safely, but her husband was carried out some 200 yards by the rip tide. Richardson did not become alarmed and floated out, while the life guards started after him. Members of the Newport Beach fire department and the Red Cross Volunteer Life Saving corps responded to the call. The radio can never compete with the party line until you can talk back over it.
