IN THE DAYS OF I Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century Ago. These Files Contain the only Authentic History of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK NOVEMBER 9, 1878 In the possession of the new school house which is being completed quite rapidly, Anaheim has something to be proud of. Architecturally it is the most handsome public building in the county, being superior to any even in the city of Los Angeles, and in size, it is only exceeded by one building in Los Angeles. Its commanding proportions attract the attention and extort the praise of every visitor to Anaheim, and without doubt it will be a great favor in our prosperity, as it naturally conveys the impression that our community is one of culture, progress and enterprise. To the oft made inquiry as to what are the school facilities of Anaheim, it can be truthfully said that it possesses a building in which every modern improvement in light and ventilation insure the health and comfort of the pupils and a corps of teachers who stand at the very top of their profession. The Messrs. Backs are repairing and plastering the building adjoining their furniture rooms, and intend to use it exclusively for their undertaking business. Messrs. McDermont and Grimshaw are building a hearse for Messrs. Backs, which will be finished in a few weeks. It will be a credit to the enterprise of the gentlemen for whom it is built, as well as to the skill of the builders. The great Cajon ditch is now completed and water is running The Messrs.

McDermont and Grimshaw are building a hearse for Messrs. Backs, which will be finished in a few weeks. It will be a credit to the enterprise of the gentlemen for whom it is built, as well as to the skill of the builders. The great Cajon ditch is now completed and water is running its entire length. On Saturday, F. A. Korn, acting as commissioner for the Anaheim Water company, formally accepted the ditch from the Cajon company. Mr. Korn will act as commissioner for the Anaheim company until one is regularly elected and qualified. Dr. Hardin was the recipient a few days ago of a very elegant and substantial present. It is a heavy walking stick, made of orange wood. The tree from which it was taken grew in San Gabriel, and there is a tradition among the oldest inhabitants of that place that it was 100 years old at the time it died, not very long ago. The stick is mounted with solid silver, and engraved on the silver knob on the top are clasped hands, surrounded by the inscription "From Dr. Burtnett to Dr. Hardin." The doctor is very proud of his present, as he well may be. Messrs. P. H. Look & Co. commenced slaughtering hogs and putting up bacon and lard this week. They propose to make an immense amount of bacon this winter and great care will be taken to utilize only hogs of the primest quality. Our people will, hereafter, find it unnecessary to send to Oregon for first-class bacon and lard. The state and county taxes are now due and payable and will become delinquent on Monday, January 6, 1879. The rate of tax is $1.92 on the $100. The Anaheim town tax becomes delinquent on the 1st of December. The rate is 60 cents on the $100. The Anaheim school district tax becomes delinquent on the 21st, inst. The rate is 20 cents on the $100. Surveyors Healy, Reynolds and Minto, accompanied by Messrs. Olden and Tuffree, went to the Las Bolsas yesterday, for the purpose of running the east line of that rancho. They will probably finish the work this week. We are informed that the ladies of the congregation of St. Michael's church purpose holding a sale of fancy work, to be followed by a social entertainment in the evening on Wednesday, December 12. All the ladies willing to take part are requested to meet this evening at Mrs. Flora Brown's at 7 o'clock. Invitations have been issued by Mr. and Mrs. P. Davis, requesting the attendance of their friends at the Bar Mitzvah of their son, Emanuel. The ceremony will take place at the synagogue in Los Angeles on next Saturday, the 16th, inst. The Bar Mitzvah is similar in import to the rite of confirmation and is administered at the age of 13 years—the religious majority. H.

Plato, is a sweet potato which weighs twelve and a half pounds. It was grown by A. T. Ferdon, and he has several more nearly as large. As the rural journalist is wont to say, score one for Anaheim. Huge packing cases to the number of thirty or forty are piled in front of Goodman and Rimpau's dry goods palace, waiting to be relieved of their wealth of dry goods. The members of the firm assure us that this is the heaviest purchase of winter goods they have ever made. It will be a day or two before the stock is placed on the shelves and ready for inspection, and then our lady friends can revel in the delights that a well-filled establishment of that kind always has for them. We are in receipt of a letter from A. W. Potts, county clerk, stating that citizens of Westminster and vicinity have filed with the board of supervisors a petition for a new township to be called Westminster, to be taken from Anaheim township. The petition will be considered on December 4th at 1 o'clock p.m., at which time all interested parties will be heard. Rev. E. Halliday will conduct divine services in the Presbyterian church at the usual hours tomorrow. Subject—Morning: "Divine Communion," after which there will be the Lord's Supper. Evening: "The Day of Pentecost." All are cordially invited to attend. A drive through the town of Orange is very enjoyable. The neatly kept orange groves and occasional green fields of alfalfa present a pleasant appearance. During a visit to that section a few days ago we stopped to sample the raisins at the factory of R. H. McPherson. They have a fine lot of raisins of excellent quality. Some are in boxes ready for shipment. No better present could be sent to friends in the East than one of these boxes of luscious raisins. S OF LONG AGO Lived Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK NOVEMBER 5, 1903 The home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Melrose was the scene of a pretty wedding yesterday when their eldest daughter, Jessie, became the bride of Ferdinand A. Backs, Jr. Rev. F. J. Dubble of St. Boniface church, was the officiating clergyman. The bride was attended by her sister, Miss Winifred Melrose, as maid of honor, and eight bridesmaids—the Misses Roalind Lainesse, Fritzie Heimann, Adella Strodthoff, Amelia Backs, Margaret Higgins, Olga Zeus, Annie Everhardy and Lucretia Richards. The groom was attended by his brother, Herman Backs, as best man. Master Theodore Kuchel carried the bride's bouquet of lavender centauria and maiden hair ferns. Crowther's orchestra rendered the Lohengrin march upon the entrance of the bridal party and during the ceremony. The bride were a gown of pale lavender crepe de chine over lavender taffeta. The skirt was trimmed with folds of silk and accordion pleated flounces of chiffon, ribbon and lavender morning-glory applique. Refreshments were served to which all did ample justice. The bride and groom, accompanied by the bridesmaids and guests, were driven to the depot in the tally-ho, where they took the evening train for the North. Upon their return they will be at home to their friends in their bungalow on Adele street. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Richard Melrose, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kuchel and small son, Theodore Kuchel, Miss Elizabeth Kuchel, Mr. and Mrs. Ferdinand Backs, Sr., Mrs. Joseph Bennett, Mrs. Arthur Lewis, Mrs. C. Hoover Pledges Federal Support Will Continue Government Policy of Aiding Road Building Assurances that if elected he would pledge his support for a continuance of the $75,000,000 Federal-aid program of the United States Government, were given on September 20 by Herbert Hoover, Presidential nominee. The pledge was given to a delegation of representatives of the American Motorists' association headed by J. Borton Weeks, president of that organization and also head of the Keystone Automobile club. Others in the delegation were G. Adams Howard, vice-president, and Thomas J. Keefe, general manager of the American Motorists' association, and James J. Whelan, field director of Keystone Automobile club. Representatives of two other national organizations who visited Hoover headquarters in Washington on the same afternoon, following the visit of the American Motorists' association delegates, were similarly advised by the Presidential nominee, that he was "100 per cent for Federal-aid." To the representatives of the American Road Builders' association, and the National Rural Letter Carriers' association, as well as the representatives of the American Motorists' association, the Presidential nominee declared that, while he favored Federal-aid, he did not feel justified in committing himself to a definite sum annually. He expressed a belief that the so-called seven per cent system of the Federal highways, which, when completed, will comprise a total of 180,000 miles of interstate highways, should be completed before the Federal Government can commit itself to improvement of secondary highway systems. He pointed out that, under the authority of the Federal Government, only highways that are not interstate can be improved with the aid of Federal funds. He expressed a belief, however, that in The bride were a gown of pale lavender crepe de chine over lavender taffeta.

Langenberger, Mrs. Richard Burmeister, Mrs. J. Frederick Ahlborn, Misses Roalind Lainesse, Fritzie Heimann, Lucretia Richards, Margaret Higgins, Amelia Backs, Emma Backs, Francis Backs, Harriet Redit, Adella Strodthoff, Olga Zeus, Annie Everhardy, Winifred Melrose, Messrs. Charles Kuchel, Allan Melrose, Adair Scott, Fritz Yungbluth, Herman Backs. The engagement is announced of Edmond E. Beazley of Orangethorpe, and Miss Minnie Hetebrink, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Hetebrink, of Placentin. The wedding will take place at the home of the bride Thursday, November 5th, at 1 p.m., in the presence of immediate relatives. After a week's trip they will reside at Mr. Beazley's residence on Orangethorpe avenue. Mr. and Mrs. I. Asher yesterday celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of their wedding by inviting their many friends to a reception at their home on Lemon street. During the entire after noon and evening friends called to extend felicitations and wish them many happy returns of the day. Mr. and Mrs. Asher were married fifteen years ago in San Bernardino. Refreshments were served and all callers were made to feel the hospitality for which the worthy couple are distinguished. We join their many friends in congratulations and indulge the hope that their future may be as serene and unclouded as has the past. Miss Edna Lee and Waldo O'Kelly of Redlands, were married yesterday morning at the residence of the bride's parents in West Anaheim, Rev. Chapman of the Presbyterian church officiated. The bride was for some time bookkeeper for Asher and Falkenstein and has many friends hereabout who wish her a happy married life. The groom is in business in Redlands, where he is held in high esteem. Andrew Rorden has made a handsome clean up off this year's crop of valencias. He has three and one-eighth acres near Fullerton. From his trees he gathered 1815 packed boxes of fruit, which grossed in New York $6220 or just $1000 per acre. Of this amount the railroad received over $2000 for freight. Frank Gates has gone to Oxnard, but retains his secretary-ship in the Fraternal Aid, Woodman and Foresters lodges. His wife is acting for him in his absence, and lodge dues in these orders are payable to her. P. Nicolas has completed a 200,000-gallon storage reservoir for a private irrigation plant. It will be filled from one well which is pumping a stream seven inches over the top of the casing. Mrs. Wm. Falkenstein went to Los Angeles last Saturday to attend the Metropolitan orchestra concert. Herman Bennerscheidt is carrying his hand in a sling as a He expressed a belief that the so-called seven per cent system of the Federal highways, which, when completed, will comprise a total of 180,000 miles of interstate highways, should be completed before the Federal Government can commit itself to improvement of secondary highway systems. He pointed out that, under the authority of the Federal Government, only highways that are not interstate can be improved with the aid of Federal funds. He expressed a belief, however, that in many instances where there are but one or two interstate highways now, there should be many more, and that the Federal Government could enlarge upon its Federal-aid program when the time comes, and thus in reality actually begin improvements of what are now commonly known as secondary highways. "As Presidential candidate, I do not feel that it would be fitting to pledge myself to an exact sum for future Federal aid." Mr. Hoover told the delegates. "Probably as many as a hundred times I have expressed my views that Federal-aid is a necessity in the construction of our highway systems. Development of the country's highway system must of necessity be fostered by the Federal Government. It is my own private opinion, however, that the Federal-aid system should be completed before the Federal Government undertakes to expand its Federal-aid program into the secondary highway system." The secondary highways system of the country, including county and intra-state roads, the Presidential nominee was told, is comprised of approximately 2,400,000 miles. Of this total, delegates of the National Rural Letter Carriers' association stated that 1,232,000 miles of this secondary highway system were used daily in transportation of the rural free delivery mails by the 44,000 rural mail carriers. Ned H. Goodell, president of the association informed Mr. Hoover that he spoke authoritatively for these 44,000 rural mail carriers and that the outstanding need, in their opinion, was improvement of the routes over which the Federal mails were transported. He cited figures showing that approximately 65 per cent of the rural districts of the United States are adequately served by the Federal Government in distribution of the mails. In Pennsylvania, President Weeks pointed out practically all of the Federal-aid highway system is rapidly nearing completion. In stressing the need for Federal-aid for the secondary highway routes of Pennsylvania, Mr. Weeks called attention to the fact that either the state or counties of Pennsylvania must at their own expense improve these secondary highway routes, many of them being used daily by the Federal Government in transportation of the United States mails, or the state must wait an indeterminable length of time for the rest of the country to complete its highway building program before Frank Gates has gone to Oxnard, but retains his secretaryship in the Fraternal Aid, Woodman and Foresters lodges. His wife is acting for him in his absence, and lodge dues in these orders are payable to her. P. Nicolas has completed a 200,000-gallon storage reservoir for a private irrigation plant. It will be filled from one well which is pumping a stream seven inches over the top of the casing. Mrs. Wm. Falkenstein went to Los Angeles last Saturday to attend the Metropolitan orchestra concert. Herman Bennerscheidt is carrying his hand in a sling as a result of injuries received while at work in the oil fields. Miss Melanie Cohen of Los Angeles is visiting friends in town, the guest of Miss Adela Strodthoff. A letter received from Herman Stern this week brings the intelligence that the Stern family would leave Hamburg on the 3rd and will probably arrive home the latter part of the month.
