Brook made public the of the Orange County GOVERNOR RICHARDSON was tendered a magnificent ovation at St. Ann's Inn on Friday evening, when 350 men and women sat down to an elaborate dinner in his honor. The ovation was not only a testimonial to the high esteem in which the governor is held in this county, but it was, as well, a rebuke to the malicious criticisms of him by a certain obscure newspaper whose editor was once an appointee of Hiram Johnson. The guests were leading citizens of the county, and during the governor's address their applause was spontaneous and long continued. It was one of the most notable political functions ever held in the history of the county. Many hundreds more would have been present, but for the fact that the capacity of the dining hall was taxed to its uttermost to seat the crowd who insisted upon attending. It was an augury of the sweeping victory which the governor will have in this county at the primary election, August 31. He was assured by friends that his majority here would be more than 5000 votes. The feeble opposition to him has about collapsed, and the only thing before the people now is to make his election unanimous. Governor Richardson arrived shortly after 6 o'clock, accompanied by Mrs. Richardson, his son, John, and C. C. Chapman. A number of his friends from out of town had gathered, and these he claused warmly by the hand. He was told that there were nothing but good reports concerning his convass, and expressed gratification at hearing the news. He said that confidential reports that day received by him from San Francisco were that he would come out of that county with a good majority. He smiled when given carefully compiled estimates that he would go to the Teachapl mountains with more than 100,000 majority and that he would swamp the state by not less than 150,000. Bets were freely offered in San Francisco that he would carry the state and come out of that city with a good majority. The inn filled up rapidly, and soon there was an animated conversation and merry laughter, which filled the spacious rooms and court. The governor was kept busy shaking hands with his many friends. All pledged him their hearty support and promised to assist in rolling up a good majority for him in this county. At 7 o'clock the large crowds filed the spacious dining hall, which had been elaborately decorated for the event. Justus Craemer of the Orange News was found to be diligently at work arranging for places at the speakers' table, at the table for newspaper men and giving final instructions. As the governor and Mrs. Richardson and the governor's party entered, the guests arose and accorded him lound and long continued applause. Chairman R. A. Cushman ordered the guests to be seated. A delicious dinner was served, and the service spoke well for the excellence of the hotel. Many people came in later and were unable to find seats at the table. The governor was very well received when he arose to deliver his address, which occupied almost an hour. He said the fight lenced women, and large sums have been appropriated for their maintenance and support. At the boys' schools the inmates are being taught trades and are being turned back to society with a chance to earn an upright and honest living. More schools are being built and further accommodations are being made for these unfortunate, who are a constant drain upon the public exchequer, but the view ever kept uppermost in mind is to return them to paths of usefulness, fitted to earn an honorable living for themselves. Reference was made to the Boulder Canyon dam, and his remarks brought out applause. He said that for three years and a half he had favored the dam, and that the state engineer had been instructed to make a report to the state legislature thereupon. This report has long since been before the people. At the recent meeting here of the National Editorial Association, he urged members in his welcoming speech in San Diego to favor the project and assist in this great enterprise. In Los Angeles, a few days later, the association adopted a series of resolutions urging their members to look into the matter with a view ultimately to supporting the improvement. He had recently received a letter from the secretary of the association, in which he was informed that many of the editors had written their senators and congressmen urging them to support the Boulder Canyon bill in the next session of congress. He spoke in felicitous phase of the numerous appointments to office he had made in this county, and said that the reason there were so many was probably because there were better men and women here than in any other part of the state. He had appointed C. C. Chapman of Fullerton to be a member of the commission on immigration and housing, a most important body, and said that Mr. Chapman was making abundantly good on the job. He spoke in terms of great praise of Nelson F. Edwards of Orange, member of the state highway commission, and of Leon Whitsell of Orange, member of the state railroad commission, both of whom are an honor to the service and are making good. Justus Craemer of the Orange News was appointed a member of the state fair board, and everybody knows that Justus is just the man for the job. He had a word of praise of his other apprentices, and said he had always exercised care in making appointments and was glad to hear most excellent reports concerning all of them.

Judge Kuchel was ap Chairman R. A. Cushman ordered the guests to be seated. A delicious dinner was served, and the service spoke well for the excellence of the hotel. Many people came in later and were unable to find seats at the table. The governor was very well received when he arose to deliver his address, which occupied more than an hour. He said the fight in California this year was between the people on one hand and the bosses and their creatures on the other. The question was whether the people should rule or whether the state should be run by the bosses and for the bosses. When four years ago he fought the embattled myrmidons of the bosses, and traveled about the state in his car, the bosses made light of his conveyance, but they did not realize that it was really the band wagon. He spoke at some length upon the many departments of state government. He did not care to burden his hearers with a recital of dry figures, but said that when he took office there was not a dollar in the state treasury. His hearers would remember, he said, that therefore the amount of money in the state treasury was represented by zero. While many millions of dollars had been expended by him for work which should have been done before. There is now a surplus of nearly $12,000,000 in the treasury. For 12 years not a dollar had been expended on San Quentin prison, while the number of inmates had largely increased. This year nearly $600,000 had been expended at San Quentin for the purpose of caring for the constantly increasing number of convicts. The schools, which four years ago cost $79,000,000, will this year cost $115,000,000. Asylums for the deaf, dumb and blind had been given large appropriations of money, as well as the asylums for the insane. Hitherto these asylums had been characterized as mad houses, and once an inmate was immured therein he lost all hope of ever emerging. Today these inmates are turned over to the care of a corps of trained specialists and more than 50 per cent of them are restored to sanity. This was never done before in the history of the state.

He had a word of praise of his other appointees, and said he had always exercised care in making appointments and was glad to hear most excellent reports concerning all of them. In all of the administrations preceding his, not one dollar of the $58,000,000 highway bonds voted by the state had been expended in Orange county, excepting for the state highway running from the northern to the southern part of California. During his administration $2,500,000 had been expended by the state on paved roads in this county, one of the highways being the magnificent Coast boulevard running through the county at the ocean front. An appropriation of $17,000 had been made for a survey of the Santa Ana river as a preliminary step for preventing future floods. It was the first time in the history of the state that an appropriation of money was made for this river. He referred to the national guard of California, which had increased from 3200 to 5200 and was in splendid military condition. He paid his respects to the yellow press which was alien controlled and alien owned, which had attacked his administration. In their offices one finds the word "truth" prominently emblazoned, but it is not the truth they want, but untruthful statements regarding him. A committee of prominent San Francisco business men and women had been appointed to manage his campaign in that city, but the yellow press did not dare to print their names. He did not refer to the obscure local paper which is attacking him as a yellow journal, but said that its editor had been an appointee of one of the bosses and had ever since been content to wear the boss' collar. He commissared Santa Ana upon the misfortune of having such a paper. This was greeted by loud applause and bursts of shouting and laughter. He referred to the sob sisters who were of the male variety and who were howling their heads off because he would not pardon criminals condemned for their wicked crimes.

Shortridge, United States senator from California, is delivering nine speeches in Orange county today. The senator arrived at La Habra at 10 a.m. and spoke to a large audience. He discussed the tariff, the Boulder Canyon dam and other political matters engaging the attention of the people. He made an address at Orange at 11 o'clock, and was greeted by a large and enthusiastic audience. At 12:45 o'clock he was the guest of the Lions and other clubs at St. Ann's Inn, where he delivered a powerful address dealing with the tariff. Boulder Canyon dam and other topics. The senator is in fine form, is enjoying excellent health, and is making a very good impression.

A. A. Brock, county horticultural commission, who indirectly sees that the little rascals are properly nourished during their baby months, also stated that, without the harvest of crawlers, the citrus growers of the county would be practically helpless before the horde of pests that attack the orange and lemon trees. Brock made public the annual report of the Orange County Pest Control Association Monday. In past years, the citrus associations have paid for the work, which is conducted under his supervision, but this year the county supervisors decided that bug propagation was directly beneficial to the entire county and the expense of the association should not be borne entirely by a number of the fruit growing organizations. Brock explained that the association propagates cryptolaemus for the purpose of waging war on the mealy bugs in the citrus groves. The cryptolaemus (ladybugs) devour the mealy bugs and do not harm the citrus trees. If there are no mealy bugs for them to devour, the bugs raised in the county insect maternity home feed on one another, having distinct canablistic characteristics. During the last year, the county's inspectory in Anaheim produced 3,192,935 beneficial insects, which sets a world's record. Brock said. The bugs were placed in 1288 orchards of the county to eat the citrophilus mealy bug. Alexander Mann, one of the old residents of this section, died at his home at Buena Park Sunday morning, at the age of 74. He is survived by his widow and three sons, Charles H. Mann of this city, E. P. Mann of Buena Park, and W. J. Mann of El Paso, Texas. Mr. Mann came here 33 years ago and engaged in ranching. Funeral services were held at the Congregational church, Buena Park, Tuesday afternoon, Rev. W. W. Hart officiating. Kuchel Has Made Excellent Record Voters Satisfied With His Conduct Of Justice's Office When a man has filled an important office for a term, faithfully, honestly and efficiently, it is the custom of his constituents to acknowledge their appreciation of his services by giving him a second term. Judge Charles Kuchel has filled the office of justice of the peace of Anaheim township for three years past, and is asking re-election. All indications are that the voters of the township, satisfied with his administration of the office, will register their approval at the primary election on August 31. Judge Kuchel was appointed by the council to fill the unexpired term. ILL HEALTH ASSIGNED AS REASON FOR GIVING UP HIS POSITION A. Curtis Case Appointed to the Vacant Seat, and Carl Leonard Elected to Succeed Mr. Mathis as Mayor; Harry Jayne's Figures Show Increase in City's Assessment; No Complaints Are Filed PERRY W. MATHIS, member of the city council and mayor of Anaheim since the recall election, 18 months ago, tendered his resignation as a member of the board at the regular meeting last Thursday evening. Poor health was given as his reason for giving up office, the worry and strain of official business aggravating his complaint. Because of his health he contemplated resigning his seat before the April election and permitting his successor to be elected at that time, but was peruaded to remain at his post. Mr. Mathis has ably and satisfactorily filled the position as head of the city government for the past 18 months, and the other remaining members of the council accepted his resignation with regret. A Curtis Case insurance agent, who shares an office with the J. E. Schumacher Realty Company, on West Center street, was elected by the board to fill the vacant seat the council table. During his residence here Mr. Case has taken a prominent part in civic affairs, and is one of the city's foremost boosters. Carl Leonard was the unanimous choice of the board for the mayor's seat. Mr. Leonard has long been connected with the Anaheim Truck and Transfer Company, and is prominent in business circles. He was elected to the council on April 10 to fill the seat made vacant by Godfrey Stock's refusal to run again, and during his few months of service he has proven his efficiency as a member of our legislative body. Deputy Assessor Harry Jayne's valuations for this year appear to have met with the approval of all the taxpayers, as no complaints were filed with the trustees, who have been sitting as a board of equalization. Report on the assessment was filed with the council Thursday night by E. B. Merritt, city clerk and city assessor. The total assessed valuation of the city is $111,801, an increase of $169,560 over last year. The increase is due mainly to building. Real estate valuation is placed at $4,354,855, a decrease of $111,865 from last year. Improvements this year aggregate $5,123,620 as against $4,997,730 last year, a gain of $125,890. Personal property this year is assessed at $1,357,445 as compared with $1,300,910 last year, a gain of $56,535. The remainder of the assessed valuation is comprised of the operative, or railroads assessments which have not been completed this year, but which are expected to approximate the figures of last year.$596,765. According to the report of Warren L. Canyon dam and other political matters engaging the attention of the people. He made an address at Orange at 11 o'clock,and was greeted by a large and enthusiastic audience. At 12:45 o'clock he was the guest of the Lions and other clubs at St. Ann's Inn, where he delivered a powerful address, dealing with tariff. Boulder Canyon dam and other topics. The senator is in fine form, is enjoying excellent health, and is making a very good impression. The fact that he is a member of the Senate finance committee, which deals with the tariff, and of the Senate rivers and harbors committee, which deals with Colorado river legislation,makes him especially strong in Orange county,a well as in other portions of Southern California. That he will sweep this county by a large majority admits of no question. He has been a consistent supporter of President Coolidge,and is everywhere being accorded a very fine reception. His tour of Orange county for this afternoon will embrace the following points:He will speak at Fullerton at 2:30 o'clock.He will be at the Elks Club in this city at 3:30 o'clock,and a large crowd will undoubtedly be present to hear him. He will speak at Garden Grove at 5:30.at Huntington Beach at 6 o'clock.at Balboa pavilion at 7:30,and at 9 o'clock will speak at Birch park,Santa Ana,following the band concert. POLITICAL EXTINCTION There is a note of sadness in Senator Johnson's announcement of his speech at the Santa Ana high school auditorium on Friday evening. "Some of us believe," he says,"when cherished polites are imperiled in state or nation,the no political consequence,nobility possibilityof political extinction,smooth frighten or deter us." Political extinction is right.The senator knows it well. It is coming.here fought President Harding,has fought President Coolidge,and bolted a national Republican convention.Political extinction is right.

Judge Charles Kuchel has filled the office of justice of the peace of Anaheim township for three years past, and is asking re-election. All indications are that the voters of the township, satisfied with his administration of the office, will register their approval at the primary election on August 31. Judge Kuchel was appointed by the supervisors to fill the unexpired term of Judge G. B. Brown, deceased. He has demonstrated that the county board made no mistake in appointing him to the post, and we don't believe the voters will make the mistake of turning him down at the polls. He has business of the office thoroughly in hand, is familiar with all the details, and his judgment has always been sound in court matters. Attorneys who have practiced before him praise him for his uniform fairness and his ability to judge all matters with an unbiased mind. The fact that some other man wants the office, is no reason why a faithful and competent official should be turned down. Heavy Increase in State Registration Registration of 1,854,471 voters for the primary election to be held August 31 was announced Monday by Frank Jordan, secretary of state. This total exceeds by 238,018 the 1924 primary registration, which was 1,621,453. Los Angeles county registered 660,444 voters this year as compared with 572,-139 in 1924; San Francisco registered 220,893, as compared with 198,364, and the registration of Alameda county was 198,265, as compared with 182,815.

This compares with 1924 figures as follows: Republican, 1,084,987; Democratic, 387,277; Socialist, 19,544; Prohibition, 19,059; declined to state. 129.-508; miscellaneous, 1068. Frank Chapman Dies Suddenly at Home Autopsy Held to Determine Cause of Death An autopsy over the body of Frank Chapman, 36, nephew of C. C. Chapman, Fullerton capitalist, who died suddenly in his apartment in the Torrey Pines apartments, in Long Beach, Monday night, was expected to be held in the beach city yesterday. Chapman, who was manager of his uncle's citrus and mining interests, had started to retire for the night, when he suddenly fell to the floor. Dr. C. W. Ranson, who was called by the hysterical wife, refused to sign a death warrant. Mrs. Chapman told Detective Sergeants E. B. Dixon and W. C. Wright and Officers Smith and Haas that her husband had been suffering from heart trouble and that he had been severely burned while bathing recently. Chapman spent most of his time in Orange county, looking after his uncle's affairs. The Chapmans rented the apartment early in the summer. He had returned from Fullerton to Long Beach Monday. More than half a hundred articles of the equine kingdom, every one of them a star performer, will be seen at the horse show, to be held every afternoon, with the exception of the opening day, at the Orange County Fair. September 6 to 11 inclusive, according to John Ragan of Orange, in charge of the program, starring the three, five and eight-gaited animals. A number of the best known show horses in the United States will be put through their paces by their owners and masters, including several famous horsemen from Los Angeles and other Pacific coast cities. A. C. Ruby of Portland, Ore., will bring his stable of some thirty-five horses to the fair. Among the famous steeds to be shown is Easter Star, owned by Marco Hellman, Los Angeles banker. Easter Star was twice grand champion of the Madison Square Garden horse show, and he also won the $10,000 championship at Louisville. Ky., in 1922. He is the highest priced gelding ever sold in America, bringing $12,500. Equally famous is Hottentot, owned by John Vaughn of Beverly Hills. He has proved himself one of the most consistent winners that has ever shown from coast to coast. He has defeated every five-gaited horse now in competition, with the exception of Easter Star. Watterson, which will be seen with Easter Star and Hottentot at the fair, is owned by Charles O. Middleton of Los Angeles. Watterson, for the past two years, has been a very consistent winner in all five-gaited and combination classes, and has proved especially adept in winning ribbons in the women's classes. A prominent motion picture actress of Los Angeles has been asked to ride several of the horses in an exhibition event. Ragan said, and further announcement concerning that special feature will be made within a few days. The horse show is a new feature of the fair, which is to be held on the state highway between Santa Ana and Anaheim near the county hospital. The county ordinance compelling the vaccination of dogs was repealed by the supervisors Tuesday, on the recommendation of Dr. V. G. Presson county health officer. The doctor stated that rubles had been eliminated from the county, and there was no longer occasion for keeping the order in force.

MARKHAM of Pasadena was elected governor of California November 4, 1890. He defeated Mayor E. B. Pond of San Francisco, who was a powerful figure in the North, and stood well in the northern metropolis and counties contiguous to the bay. His running mate was R. F. Del Valle of Los Angeles, who was quite popular throughout the southern counties. Del Valle made several trips through the counties of the south was lining up the counties of the south and was lining up many votes for the Democratic ticket. For a number of years the wine growers of Anaheim and other sections of California had been paying money to maintain a lobby at Washington for the enactment of a bill permitting the use of a certain quality of brandy in the fortification of sweet wines. This bill had been uniformly defeated by the liquor trust composed of the big distillers throughout the east. Unless the growers were permitted the use of brandy in thus fortifying sherries, ports and other sweet wines, much if not all of the profits of raising wine grapes would be lost. The southern counties produced the best sweet wines in the state, while the northern counties made the best Riesling and other light wines. Grapes grown in the south attained a much greater sugar content than those in the north. A very serious situation confronted the grape growers. Many of them declared that if they could not fortify their sweet wines, they would be compelled to retire from the grape business. It was while this unfavorable condition of affairs existed that Democratic orators came amongst the grape growers, informing them that the Republican party at Washington was dominated by the whisky trust, which would never permit the manufacture of California sweet wines. However, while the grape growers of California had sent thousands of dollars to Washington to fight off the attacks of the trust and had been unsuccessful, the McKinley tariff bill was passed by congress a short time before Markham's election. This tariff bill contained what was known as the sweet wine bill, which permitted grape growers the use of brandy in fortifying their sweet wines. McKinley at that time was being groomed for the Presidency. He had been elected to congress from Ohio on a protective tariff issue. A number of old-time grape growers in this section were won away from Markham, and declared their intention of supporting Pond. They declared they had been compelled to send large sums of money to Washington for the protection of their business, but that the party in power seemed to be unfavorable to them, and it seemed to them as if it was under the domination of the whisky trust. They declared that not a single grape grower in California would support the Markham ticket. Few of them had heard of the passage of the McKinley tariff bill, which gave them that for which they had been fighting without the cost of a single cent. A number of them were informed of this fact, but they scouted the story and said that they did not believe it. They said they would all rally around Pond and put the Democratic party in power. Why Voters Should Re-Elect Ed Marion He Has Provided Himself Faithful and Efficient Ed Marion, who has served public faithfully and well as constable of Anaheim township for the past four years, now seeks re-election to that office. The position of constable is of far more importance to the public than many people believe. That office in backwoods sections, that are sparsely settled, is looked upon as being of minor importance. But here, where the township has a population of 20,000, the constable must be a man who is capable and efficient, one who understands his business. Marion, through years of experience, has become well fitted to perform the duties required. Many civil cases are filed in the justice court, and the constable is the server of all processes issued out of that court. Attachments and executions are fevled, and this legal procedure must be according to law or serious complications would arise. Marion's knowledge of this work makes him the ideal man for the place. In many cases bonds are required, where an attachment is released, pending final settlement of the case, and here is where the constable must exercise sound judgment. An insufficient bond, were it accepted, would cause considerable trouble and expense. Marion's experience again qualifies him to perform that duty according to law. Ed Marion as a citizen is well known, having lived here for 32 years, and has many friends and neighbors who speak of him in high terms of praise. His supporters are rallying to his support and, as one old friend said the other day, it is the intention of Marion's boosters to put him over the top at the primaries on August 31. Voters should bear in mind that none but capable men be elected to office, as they are servants of the people, in that best interests of all be subserved.

Girls desiring to take up careers as nurses will have the opportunity to commence training when the Orange county hospital opens a new class in its school for nurses October 1, according to an announcement by Dr. Harry Zaiser, superintendent of the hospital. Inasmuch as the school for nurses conducted at the county hospital has grown to attain recognition as a school of high standards, a large enrollment is expected for the October class. The school offers the best instruction and is recognized by the state bureau for nurses. It has been in operation since 1915 and has graduated 32 nurses. At present it has 26 nurses in training. Applications for enrollment in the new class may be made to Miss Mathis, superintendent of nurses at the county hospital, Dr. Zaiser stated. Markham held two great political meetings in Orange county, one in the opera house at Santa Ana during the afternoon, and the other at the opera house in this city in the evening. Bands were out, great enthusiasm prevailed, and large crowds attended the meetings. Markham was accompanied by George A. Knight, a San Francisco spellbinder. Knight had stumped the state with Perkins eleven years before. He spoke from the verandah of the Planters hotel, extolling the virtues of the sailor boy governor. He was an orator of ability and made a great hit. Perkins was the first man to carry the southern counties for governor, and he was elected by a large majority. He was afterwards elected United States senator. The new constitution adopted in 1879 prohibited the election of a governor to the United State Senate during his term of office. This law continued in effect until 1904, when Hiram Johnson, who was governor at that time and aspired to be senator, proposed an amendment to the constitution setting this provision aside. He stumped the state for his amendment, and it was carried. He was later elected to the United States Senate. When Markham and Knight arrived in Orange county in 1890, we made an appointment with Knight and informed him of the state of affairs existing among the wine growers in this county. He was informed of the sweet wine bill in the McKinley tariff, and was asked to refer to the matter and explain it in his speech here in the evening. He took down a number of notes of the interview and promised to refer to the matter in his address. A large crowd gathered to hear Markham and Knight at Santa Ana in the (Continued on Last Page)
