It has been rumored that the Southern Pacific Company railway was about to sink for artesian water near the old adobe station on the San Joaquin. Mr. Charles E. French of that ranch informs us that the rumor possibly originated from the preparations now being made by the San Joaquin company to bore at that place. It was announced early in the week that the steamer Senator would carry passengers from San Francisco on its down trip this week at $5 per head.

Alexander Henry, whose success in obtaining artesian water on his farm near Anaheim we mentioned a few weeks since, has just completed the carrying out of an idea in regard to the utilization of this artesian water for irrigating purposes, which seems to be eminently practical up to the present time two objections to artesian water as an irrigating medium have presented themselves. One objection was that the temperature of the water was so low as to cause land illness which kept him fourteen days to his bed. W S. Fish was in town several days during the week renewing old acquaintances and visiting with friends. Dr. Houck is in Los Angeles in attendance upon the meeting of the Southern California Dental Association. Mrs. Fred Mickle and children have returned from a sojourn at Irvington, Alameda county.

The house was appropriately decorated with shavings and the garden brilliantly illuminated with Japanese lanterns.

One objection was that the temperature of the water was so low as to cause land to which it was applied to become chilled and the other was the inadequate supply water for irrigating purposes obtained from flowing wells. In order to overcome these difficulties Mr. Henry has constructed a large reservoir into which a pipe leading from his well will conduct the water, where it will remain while acquiring a natural temperature by contact with the atmosphere and where it can be saved in sufficiently large quantities to irrigate an adequate area. The result of this experiment will be watched by all who are interested in farming and success will be undoubtedly attended by a large increase both to the number and to the area of the artesian well sections of the county. The board of supervisors will meet on Tuesday the Santa Ana lodge and the rate of taxation for 1874 will be the principal topics for discussion. Rev. M.

Mr. Pressel returned some days ago from San Francisco with his son, Carl, the latter being unsuccessful in his efforts to enter the United States navy owing to a slight deficiency in the sight, of one eye, although a rigid physical examination disclosed him to be a lad of fine physique. Carl met Adolph Hienzeman, who is on the receiving ship Pensacola and doing well. Mr. Pressel met Mr. Renner and also Mrs. Byers, formerly of this city and Mrs. F.

This is a condensation of the working plan and method pursued by the Woman's Forum of Long Beach for the primary purpose of getting all women entitled to vote, regardless of party, to register and cast their ballots at the forthcoming election. It seems to me, to constitute a workable basis upon which the women of any community quickly and effectively can organize for this purpose and achieve results, excellent and practical for their home, their state and their nation. Twelve women realizing that it is within the power of the voting women of America to avert the national calamity of Socialism by registering and voting at the forthcoming election, met and organized an Advisory Board. The board next extended its sphere by calling together forty patriotic women representatives of various locations of the city and organized the Woman's Forum with the following object: To perfect an organization based upon small units for the purpose of endeavoring to secure one hundred per cent poll of the women's vote of their city. To each member of the Forum was assigned a geographical unit of the city to organize using the schoolhouse district as the first basis of subdivision. With the organization of these original units, a mass meeting of thirty-five hundred voters was held and the plan to bring out one hundred percent of the voters of their city was so thoroughly endorsed regardless of party that Long Beach sent out a challenge to every city and town in the state to bring out the largest percentage of the registered vote. In the Matter of the Estate of Martha A. Squires, deceased Executors Notice of Sale of Real Estate at Private Sale.

With the organization of these original units, a mass meeting of thirty-five hundred voters was held and the plan to bring out one hundred percent of the voters of their city was so thoroughly endorsed regardless of party that Long Beach sent out a challenge to every city and town in the state to bring out the largest percentage of the registered vote. For the purpose of intensifying the efficiency of the unit, these units were reduced in size to conform to the possibility of one woman's ability personally to visit and make sure that each woman voter in her unit was registered and had promised to vote at the forthcoming election. For the purpose of speed and concentration, some of these units were reduced to the size of a single city block traversed without crossing the street. The challenge of the Long Beach Woman's Forum had so sooner been announced by the Press Associations than the Chamber of Commerce of Los Angeles offered a trophy to the Los Angeles predict bringing out the largest percentage of its registered vote. Other Chambers of Commerce and commercial bodies throughout California have signified their desire to follow the example of the Los Angeles Chamber and in some suitable manner to reward the product of their town which shall achieve this object. Patriotic men of Long Beach have offered $100 to the winning precinct in their city. It is suggested that women organizing these forums foster the offspring of such prizes by their Chamber of Commerce and patriotic citizens.

This indicates that building costs are pretty well stabilized and those who hesitate to build now in the hope that they may be able to build cheaper next spring will not gain anything by waiting. The logic back of the idea that costs are likely to be higher next year is that lumber and other materials, like wheat and oranges, are down to rock bottom now and are more than likely to move upward than downward. Therefore even if there should be some trimming of the peak in wages this will be offset by increasing costs in material.
