IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled From the Files of Former Issues of This Paper 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK August 28, 1875 George C. Knox will be a candidate for re-election as superintendent of irrigation. The Hanna tract will shortly be laid off into 10-acre tracts and sold at auction. Dr. Hardin will set out 300 orange trees this week on his place in Orange. The district clerk has been notified that $293.82, state apportionment, has been placed to the credit of Anaheim school district. A telegraph line is being built between Los Angeles and Santa Monica. A. C. Nixon, the night watchman, will proceed to Los Angeles tomorrow, to receive the appointment of deputy sheriff.

Davis & Brother shipped to San Francisco, this morning, six tons of honey and four tons of beeswax. This lot was shipped from the ranch of W. E. Higgins, near Santa Ana. We learn that E. W. Champlin is a candidate for superintendent of irrigation. Mr. Parker has rented one of I. B. Raines houses and will convert it into a fruit drying establishment. F. W. Koll was prostrated last night with a severe attack of congestion of with human heads. The cause of the suspension is the locking up of coin by Flood & O'Brien, the great rivals of Ralston and the Bank of California. Of course the suspension had its effect on other banks, and a run was made on several institutions, depositors drawing out their money as fast as they could get it. The impression is that we are on the eve of a tremendous panic and that there is sure to be a run on all banks. Many of them will go under. It is the darkest day ever seen on California street, and it is believed that we are to see times in comparison to which Black Friday in New York will sink into insignificance. President Ralston stated that there was no doubt that they would be able to meet all obstacles. He further stated that about $1,400,000 had been paid out today. The presidents of all the savings banks met and passed resolutions requiring depositors to give the notice provided by by-laws before withdrawing their deposits. This is to counteract any attempt during the present excitement to make a run on the savings banks. The resolutions were signed by the Hibernia, The Savings and Loan Association, San Francisco Savings Union, Odd Fellow's Bank, the German Savings and Loan Society, the French Savings and Loan Society, Humboldt Savings and Masonic Savings banks—August 27. All banks in San Francisco are closed, also the Merchants Exchange. There will be no business done until the tide changes and the Bank of California has made their statement.

He reports the experience of great relief from his rheumatism, and is loud in his praises not only of the efficiency of the waters in alliments of this sort, but of the beauty of the surroundings as well. Victor Montgomery, Esq., of Santa Ana was a visitor in town for a brief period on Friday morning last.

In the course of his remarks he alluded in severe terms to the underhanded efforts of his Democratic opponent, Fred Lambourne, to injure him in the estimation of the people by falsely stating that he (Bailey) was put forward in the interest of county division. G. L. Russell next occupied the platform. He asserted his belief that his defeat before the Democratic convention was due to Messrs. Ryan and Rowan and, consequently, he is doing all in his power to secure the defeat of those gentlemen. He said that this would be the second time in 30 years that he had scratched the Democratic ticket. He made other charges against Ryan, which are refuted in another column. Messrs. Stephen M. White and H. T. Hazard delivered very effective addresses. Thodore Lynn was the last speaker. He contrasted the merits of the candidates upon the different tickets, and his conclusions were in favor of the Independent nominees.

Santa Barbara post of the Legion turned over all its resources to those who suffered in and since the earthquake there, and is now in need to aid in re-establishing its activities among the ex-service men and the disabled war veterans.

Farm Centers Will Back Flood Control The Villa Park-Olive farm center, largest farm unit in the county, has pledged its united support to the Tri-Counties flood control commission and the county supervisors in any feasible undertaking which they might attempt, having as its goal the development of an adequate water supply for Orange county. The action, taken by resolution, followed investigations showing that the county water supply is being gradually diminished, being now at a point where development of a new and adequate water source is of paramount importance, according to J. R. Ragan, farm center president, who, with A. M. Stanley, county farm bureau secretary, drafted the resolution. While endorsing and pledging their full support to any feasible project that would furnish an adequate supply to the entire county, the farm organization condemns all efforts to procure a water supply for any one particular section at the expense of any other section. Pointing out that the value of real estate in Orange county, or any other agricultural county for that matter, is largely determined by its water supply, the agriculturists stressed the point that land without water is practically worthless. "Our depleted supply makes water conservation of paramount importance," the resolution reads. "It is our opinion that the securing of an adequate water supply should take precedence over any other endeavor, project or bond issue, and that no practical solution of this problem would involve a sacrifice too great for accomplishment in comparison with the need. "Be it known, therefore, that we pledge our united support to the Tri-Counties flood control commission and the county supervisors—agencies which are directly working on this problem—in any feasible effort to secure an adequate water supply for the whole of Orange county." A copy of the resolution, which was unanimously adopted, was ordered sent to each of the three aforementioned organizations as well as to the Orange county farm bureau and the Associated Chambers of Commerce.

It is particularly fair to the product, because it permits a continuous program of betterment over a period of years—uninterrupted by experimental changes in basic design. CHAS. H.
