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 January 22, 1876 Frank Ey is just becoming a bloated monopolist. He is about to open another shop under the Anaheim hotel, which will make him the fortunate possessor of three tonsorial establishments. Mr. H. Cahen has added to the many attractive features of Center street by the importation of a hand organ. The houses in his immediate vicinity are not yet advertised for sale, as the instrument was only purchased yesterday. Mr. James D. Ott was in town yesterday. The large pepper tree on Mrs. Metz' property on Los Angeles street, was ahorn of its noble proportions yesterday. Davis & Bro. received 107 packages of merchandise yesterday and by the looks of Gus this afternoon we should judge it was principally bacon. Two cargoes of lumber for the new lumber yard of A. G. Smith & Co. are expected to arrive in about two weeks. Gaddy & Lewis have a pair of saddle horses let out which from appearances are likely to remain out for some time, as nothing has been heard of them since they left the stable three days ago. Sealed proposals for the construction of a steamer to navigate the lake in front of the Gazette office are in order. It was exactly one year ago yesterday that rail communication was established between Los Angeles and Anaheim. was made to burn the Southern Pacific depot on Saturday. A very favorable opportunity is afforded some person to establish a lucrative hotel business in Westminster. The people of that town offer great inducements to the right person. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK January 24, 1901 The marriage of John A. Eymann and Miss Louise M. Schumacher, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Schumacher of this city will be solemnized at the residence of the bride's parents on Monday. The groom is one of Anaheim's most popular young men, and the bride one of our most charming young ladies. The best wishes of a host of friends go with them. The honeymoon will be spent in Los Angeles. Mrs. Wm. Falkenstelen entertained on Thursday afternoon at a musical at her home on Broadway. The house was decorated in smylax and roses. At the close of the program the guests were ushered into the library, where the table was set, and were served with delicious refreshments. The program, which was as follows, was well rendered and much enjoyed: Simple Confession—Edmond Cahen. Plingst cantata (Haydn)—Mrs.. Otto Storm. The Holy City—Miss Melanie Cahen. Second Rhapsodie (Liszt)—Mrs. William Falkenstein. Now E Ver (Tito Mattel)—Mrs. Wm. Konig. The Rosary—Miss Melanie Cahen. Song without Words (Mendessohn)—Mrs. Otto Storm.

Quite a jolly crowd assembled to assist Martin Classon in getting his saloon fairly opened last night. The members of the Episcopal congregation held a meeting at Enterprise hall on Thursday afternoon to discuss the propriety of commencing to build a church. The treasurer's report showed that there was $978 in the building fund. A committee consisting of Messrs. Olden, Kellogg, and Potter and Miss Lafaucherie was appointed to secure plans for a church to have a capacity of seating one hundred and fifty persons and to cost about three thousand dollars. Messrs. Mendleson and Mitchell made an extensive tour through the Gospel Swamp region yesterday. The passers through the streets by night are seriously annoyed by packs of howling snapping cows, of all ages and degrees of ferocity. The night watchesman is usually accompanied by from sixteen to twenty. It would be a good idea for those having dogs which they value, to fasten them at night securely within their own premises. The San Diego Union has the following comments: The county division question is the chief topic of discussion in Los Angeles. All the city papers oppose it, of course, and equally, of course, the Anaheim Gazette favors it. The Gazette contends against odds, but it makes an exceedingly lively fight and keeps its adversaries busy enough. Mr. Luedke is about to throw more light on the subject of time by lighting up his clock. The weary night wanderer on Center street will now be able to mark the flight of the midnight hours, and the next burglar who visits the jewelry establishment will have no need to waste matches. The artesian well upon the ranch of Mr. J. M. Gibson has reached a depth of 437 feet.

Hanna of Wilmington, Delaware. Messrs. Chico Forster and Geo. H. Kimball passed through town yesterday on their way to the Santa Margarita rancho. Mr. Mielenz and friends made a terrible slaughter among the ducks yesterday and returned with a supply large enough to run a first class restaurant for a week. We understand that a General Insurance and Real Estate Agency is about to be established in this place. It is now stated that twenty-three thousand dollars of Los Angeles city money is locked up in the suspended Temple & Workman bank. The supervisors will be urged to build a bridge over the Los Angeles river on the road leading to Indiamon colony. About 300 feet of the railroad track near Downey was submerged after the late rains. Don Mateo Keller has started on his Malaga ranch what is the nucleus of a formidable oyster production in Los Angeles county. He calculates that he has today at least 240,000,000 spawn in his beds, enough to keep all restaurants in the country supplied for a goodly while. The very idea of 240,000,000 oysters makes one's mouth water. As a single oyster's spawn sums up 4,000,000 yearly, it does not take long to start the industry where everything is propitious as in the Malaga project, where the ranch aligns the ocean. We hear that Tucson, Arizona is building up rapidly. Among other structures recently erected is a school house costing $10,000. The schooner May Queen arrived at Anaheim Landing yesterday with 150,000 feet of lumber for Halberstedt & Co. Los Angeles is still infilleted with incendiaries.

Supervisor Potter has so far recovered from his recent illness as to be able to attend the meetings of the board of supervisors. Bishop Montgomery confirmed a large class of boys and girls at St. Boniface Catholic church on Sunday and later preached a forceful sermon upon temperance to a congregation that filled the edifice to the doors. Another rain has fallen, giving us .96 of an inch on Sunday and Sunday night. The total for the season is 7.55 inches. This is more rain than we have had during any of the preceding three "dry years," and on all sides a feeling of confidence in the future is apparent. A great surprise was handed out to the crowd assembled at the opera-house on Saturday evening to witness the boxing match when Prof. Lymburner's 162-pound beauty, Frank Preston, was knocked out in the first round by Jack McCoskey of Los Angeles, weight 155. The ball was comfortably filled with the elite of this city, Fullerton, Brookshurst and the oil wells and the argument was conducted according to the rules of polite society. Preston was accompanied by quite a contingent from our neighboring burg, among them being Pap Lymburner, Mr. Whitesides (so-called because his sides are black, he being a gentleman of color), Shorty Karten, Bob Raines, "Cunny" Cunningham, Dan McCoy (colored), E. Johnson, Ollie Jensen, Robin Adair Scott, Morris Ray and Billy Alvarado. D. H. Thomas appeared before the supervisors at Santa Ana on Monday and asked for a franchise over certain public roads in this county to construct and maintain a line of railroad tracks. This is the new electric road which the company proposes to build from Santa Ana to Los Angeles and which according to the franchise already secured in Los Angeles county has to be completed within eighteen months after work is begun.

Year's.. Output.. Yielded Growers Total of $16,500,000 "Way out west in the land o' cotton" is the way they're singing it in California, for this state has put one over on Dixie by jumping into the cotton belt almost overnight. The California cotton harvest is just about in, and to the surprise of Californians even appears as a major crop. This winter's cotton harvest will total $16,500,000. It equals the raisin crop and the prune crop, and is crawling up to California's headliners, alfalfa, oranges and grapes. Cotton now covers 150,000 acres in California, stretching from the Mexican border in the Imperial Valley to the rice fields of the Sacramento valley. It was produced what amounts to a boom in the lower San Joaquin Valley, and has turned Corcoran, the former livestock center, into the cotton capital of the state. Its profitable growing has saved the lower San Joaquin from the disaster that came with the breaking of the raisin market. San Francisco and Los Angeles have been bidding for the export business, with San Francisco in the lead for the bulk of the trade. With 130,000 bales shipped this year as compared to 80,000 last, and with the crop moving into the big central valleys, San Francisco stands to be the center of cotton shipping in the future. The business of ginning the cotton is scattered in more than 50 gins all over the lower end of the state. California's bid for cotton is based on a peculiarly fine quality of short staple grown on her rich irrigated lands. It is better grade and grows in greater quantity than in Texas or the southern states and, most important of all, it is free from boll weevil. Not only is California a factor in the growing and ginning of cotton. Two big factories in Los Angeles and Oakland are now making it a center of the industry of fabrication. With hydroelectric power, it is believed that California can become an important field for cotton goods manufacture that can be shipped to the big markets of the Orient. Cotton seed oil mills are also operating in Fresno and Oakland. HIGHWAY PROBLEMS One of the greatest problems confronting California in 1926 is the choice of a means of raising funds for highway construction, according to Major James S. Greene, chief engineer of the National Automobile Club. The governor's pocket veto of the gasoline tax bill which was passed by both houses of the Legislature will have a far greater effect on road building this year and next than it had during 1925. The increase in automobile registration and in demand for new paved arteries of travel will embarrass the highway commission unless some means are quickly decided on which will meet with popular approval. Bond issues for road building are expensive and give the taxpayer comparatively little for his money. The gasoline tax which would vary with the usage of the road seemed equitable and its passage by the Legislature would indicate the trend of popular opinion. The burden of keeping up the road now exists with the county boards of supervisors and they are doing great work toward maintaining the reputation of the state for good roads. Two great Pacific Coast highways are yet to be paved, the Pacific Highway and the Redwood Highway, routes 99 and 101 in the Federal road system. The major portion of the former has been paved but a great part of the Redwood Highway has yet to be surfaced with any more permanent topping than gravel. In addition to these important north and south arteries of travel, there remain a number of connections with the highways entering California on cast. Over these will come a great part of the tourist army from the middle west and Atlantic states. Not a single link of all the transcontinental highways entering California has yet been completed and paved. Notice a report that the army is short of musicians. There wouldn't be much grief if a lot of those in private life could be drafted by the army—Des Moines Register.
