These Files Contain the only Authentic H of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange Coun 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SEPTEMBER 7, 1878 Meeting of the Water company—At the general meeting of stockholders of the Anaheim Water company, held on Saturday, the secretary read the following proposed amendments: That each acre or fraction of an acre represent a share. That each acre or share now represented in the Anaheim Water company shall be credited at $3. That all shares hereafter subscribed shall pay $3, together with all assessments which may be levied from and after this date. That no more than 3000 shares shall be issued at present, and not more until it is proven that a larger area of land can be irrigated with the regular water supply. The above amendments will be voted on a week from next Saturday. Notice was also given to amend Section 5 of Article 5, to read as follows: The trustees shall have power to create a debt, subject to the approval of two-thirds of the stockholders. R. W. Scott was appointed a committee of one to draw up an agreement and contract with a representative of the Cajon company. As soon as the agreement is drawn up and approved by the Cajon company, a meeting of the Anaheim Water company will be called to ratify it. On Sunday morning a gentleman approached H. L. Paty and offered him $150 for one of his fine mares. The offer was refused, Mr. Paty saying that he would sell the mare and its mate for $300. A short time after he had occasion to go to the corral where as follows: The trustees shall have power to create a debt, subject to the approval of two-thirds of the stockholders. R. W.

Paty and offered him $150 for one of his fine mares. The offer was refused, Mr. Paty saying that he would sell the mare and its mate for $300. A short time after he had occasion to go to the corral where his animals were and he found the mare, which he had just been offered $150 for, with her leg broken. In playing with the other horses, she had received a kick with the result noted. As the animal was a great favorite with Mr. Paty, he had the leg set and bandaged, although even if the animal recovers it will be worthless for his use. On Saturday last the Anaheim Water company sold $130 worth of water—more with one exception, than has ever been sold at one time. The exception occurred last year when the day's receipts were swollen by the purchase of $50 worth of water by the North Anaheim Canal company. R. Luedke has been appointed agent of the celebrated Elgin watches, as will be seen by the advertisement in which the eagle occupies such a conspicuous position. Mr. Luedke will keep a large stock of these watches on hand and also a good assortment of clocks and jewelry. Dr. Ellis showed us yesterday some views of his sanitorium, taken by Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Two of the views are of the exterior of the building, and the other two are of the richly furnished rooms. The Dr. will have one hundred of these views mounted on heavy cardboard and an advertisement of the Sanitorium and of Anaheim printed on the margin. These he will have posted up in conspicuous places in San Francisco and elsewhere. They will draw a great deal of attention to the Sanitorium and to this locality. The Board of Town Trustees held their regular meeting yesterday. Present—Cohen, Look, Boege, Yocum and Kirley, the latter in the chair. It was resolved to allow the Marshal $1 a day for the keeping of prisoners. The assessment book was turned over to the tax collector. The committee on printing were authorized to have 300 tax receipts printed. The ordinance requiring peddlers and other non-residents, who take orders for goods to be delivered within the town limits to pay a license of $10 per month was lost by the following vote: Ayes—Look and Cohen. Noes—Boege and Yocum. The ordinance fixing the levy at 60 cents on the $100 was passed, and also one declaring all taxes unpaid on the 1st of December to be delinquent. The president reported that warrants for $635 had been drawn by the supervisors in favor of Anaheim. This is the amount paid by the citizens of the town into the county treasury, after Anaheim had been incorporated. Mr. Cohen moved that a committee be appointed to confer with property owners in regard to deeding land for sidewalks. Motion carried and Messrs. Cohen and Look appointed as such committee. John Wagner suffered the loss of a hundred sheep on Thursday evening. One of his bands was crossing a gulch—as they had done many a time before—but for some reason they crowded in too fast and as a result one hundred were smothered. the 1st of December to be delinquent.

He will probably commence making wine about the middle of the week. Louis Durr has opened the Brewery saloon on Center street. He proposes to rent both brewery and saloon whenever a suitable person offers himself. A linen coat belonging to Fred Hartung was taken from the pavilion on Sunday. In the pocket of the coast was some sheets of music. The individual who took the coat is welcome to the garment if he will return the music. An exceedingly handsome sign is suspended over Lewis' Fashion Livery stable. It is the handiwork of Mr. Gooch, who is an artist as well as a painter. Frank Ey has retired temporarily from business, his brother John will continue the shop. Frank will probably take a trip to San Francisco ere he again buckles down to work. Con Howe was in town yesterday and handed us the notice of his father's death. He had just finished a house in Garden Grove for his father's occupancy when the sad news of the old gentleman's death was received. Messrs. J. K. Tuffree, H. Werder and F. A. Backs and wife returned from San Francisco on Monday.

The new office is roomy and well ventilated, has plenty of light and its appointments are second to none in the land. The lock boxes are provided with Yale combination locks, and all keys to boxes in the old office have been called in. Take them to the money order window and get 20 cents for them. The furnishings of the new office are in stained oak, and call for favorable comment on the part of all. Mr. Dickel informs us, that despite reports to the contrary, there will be no rise in the price of groceries and Druggist Hatz-field says drugs will be no higher. The permanent exhibit of products from different parts of the county that is being established at the chamber of commerce at Santa Ana is all practically in place, and it is believed that the local display will compare favorably with any other section of the county.

Backs, trimming;s Stern Power Trust Fights For Right-of-Way San Bernardino Attempts to Influence Supervisors The Orange county supervisors, who have withheld approval of a proposed Southern Sierra Power company high tension line through this section until property owners affected are satisfied with the plans, and who heard Gaston Bastanchury, of the Bastanchury ranch, declare that the Fullerton City council would resist the advent of the line there even if the police force had to be called out, received a request from San Bernardino county, asking their assistance in the project. C. S. Crain, chairman of the San Bernardino county board of supervisors, signed a resolution, adopted there August 13, which was transmitted to the Orange county board, and which pointed out reasons for the request. The matter probably will be presented to the board at its next meeting. Pointing out that the company serves many sections of the state with power, the resolution asked that the board here might "render such assistance to the Southern Sierra Power company as is possible and consistent with sound public policy in the building of a high tension line across Orange county from Seal Beach to the Riverside county line." A delegation from the northern part of this county appeared recently to state its position on the matter to the board and explained that the proposed line would result in serious damage to their property. Particularly in the city of Fullerton, it was declared, the power line would act as a detriment to progress. Cutting the city from the north-east to the southwest, it would ruin property values in one of the best sections of the community, it was declared. Several condemnation edits have been started by the company on property in Orange county. It was pointed out that another route could be chosen which would not cause the damage which the proposed line is said to threaten.

Next Sunday on the local grounds the Olinda mine will cross bats with the Apex nine of Los Angeles. Olinda defeated Apex in a hotly contested game at the oil wells some two weeks ago, and has since defeated three other Los Angeles nines. Apex comes reinforced with Reilly Householder and Gannow, late of the Los Angeles Nationals, and an interesting game is in prospect. Cal. Woods came in the other day from Indio when he has been stationed some months as assistant to the agent for the railroad at that point. Cal. will spend a short vacation at home and will return to his post of duty in a week or two. John Johnson left on Monday for his mines at Dale. The first night out he camped in the canyon this side of Rincon. He expects to make the trip by Sunday night and will be absent probably for some weeks.

On their return Mrs. Robison will take the little girl to Cochise, A. T., where her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Will Lawrence, reside; Mr. Lawrence being in poor health. Citrus Demand Shown in Consumer Survey Some indication of the widespread consumption and demand for California citrus fruits in Milwaukee, a city of typical American consumers, is disclosed in the seventh annual Consumer Analysis of the Greater Milwaukee Market recently compiled by the Milwaukee Journal. The use of oranges in this market is almost universal. Only a fraction of one per cent of the families indicate that they do not at some time or other use this fruit. Of the 63.7 per cent of consumers who buy by brand name, 97.3 per cent specify Sunkist, with 2.5 per cent of them specifying the next best known brand. Lemons are used in 97.6 per cent of the homes of Milwaukee. This fruit is not bought by brand name nearly as extensively as oranges. The influence of Sunkist advertising is very apparent, however, since Milwaukee is almost entirely a Red Ball lemon market, yet 94.4 per cent of those who buy by brand name express a preference for Sunkist. Only 59.1 per cent of Milwaukee families use grapefruit. Nine out of ten housewives merely ask for grapefruit, and do not specify a certain brand. It will be of special interest to California grapefruit growers to know that although very little or no Sunkist grapefruit has been sold in the Milwaukee market, 19.7 per cent of the housewives in that city prefer Sunkist grapefruit compared to 35.5 per cent and 36.5 per cent for the two best known Florida brands. Sunkist ranks a good third with several other brands listed at 5 per cent and less. The potential advertising value of Sunkist to California grapefruit growers, merely through the favorable association with Sunkist orange advertising, is apparent in this survey. National Orange Co. Is Member Exchange The National Orange Company of Riverside, with 740 acres of bearing oranges and grapefruit in the Riverside county. Eddie Boege has taken a position with Mr. Grim at the Griffith Lumber yard. Eddie is one of those boys who cannot keep idle long, and is out of his Arizona job only to find one waiting for him here at home.

Mr. and Mrs. Hayden have moved from the Baum residence to their recently purchased ranch south of town. Mr. Hayden will shortly begin the erection of a commodious residence on the property. E. B. Foster was in town from Centralia on a business trip on Saturday. Mr. Foster has been indisposed for some weeks past but is improving.
