Telephone Company to Erect Attractive Anaheim
Awarding of the steel contract for The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company's new Anaheim building to the McClintic-Marshall Company was announced today by A. L. Barlett, manager of the telephone company. No date has been set for commencing the construction of the two-story $70,000 building, to house new dial central office equipment, but work will probably be started sometime in January, Bartlett stated. More than $165,000 will be expended in establishing the new telephone system.
The building will be of steel frame and concrete construction and will be of Spanish design, in harmony with other buildings in the community. Upon its completion dial central office equipment, to service Anaheim telephone subscribers, and long distance equipment will be installed at an approximately cost of $20,000 and $25,000 respectively. Approximately $18,000 will be expended for replacing the present manual telephone instruments with dial instruments, and outside plant equipment, rearrangements, and extensions in connection with the new telephone system, will amount to approximately $32,000.
When the new central office equipment is placed in service Anaheim will have a telephone system with facilities to serve 3,450 telephones. This will care for increased three or four feet.
Union Labor Men Held Many Seats
Helped to Draft State Constitution in 1878
Dennis Kearney's followers, through total assets at the end of the forage for cash, amounted to 15 cents. The cash had been removed at the colse of business, thus disappointing the burglars.
Police said the same men robbed all three stores.

Union Labor Men Held Many Seats
Helped to Draft State Constitution in 1878
Dennis Kearney's followers, through their "Workingmen's Trade and Labor Union," carried many seats in the convention which met in 1878 to draw up a new constitution for California.
As they had inspired and engineered the idea of a new constitution, in an attempt to change condition in the state which were distasteful to them, cush as Chinese immigration and political control by the railroads, it was only fair that they should have force at the convention.
Unfortunately most of Kearney's men who were elected to the convention were ignorant men, without experience or constructive ideas.
Among the lawyers, who secured a large representation, there were some closely bound by business ties to the great corporations, and therefore disposed of the legal profession.
In justice to many of them it should be said that their respect for the principles of the common law and for sound constitutional doctrine made them do their best to restrain the wild folly of their colleagues.
However, the Kearney delegates, together with the more numerous and less corruptible delegates of the farmers, had their way in many things and produced what one writer has dubbed "that surprising instrument by which California was thereafter governed."
Theodore H. Hittell of the University of California, writing a summary of the convention shortly after it adjourned, said:
"The new constitution made radical changes in almost every department of the government. It completely changed the judicial system, an dthereby rendered necessary an alteration of almost all the laws relating to civil and criminal procedure. The main underlying spirit of the new instrument was an attack upon capital under the specious name of the opposition to monopolies. Capital and especially accumulated capital wherever it was found, was to be 'cinch-ed.' With this object in view, cheap labor was to be driven out of the country, and corporations so restricted and hampered in their operations as to be unable to make large profits."
When the constitution came to be submitted to the vote of the people, in May 1879, it was vehemently opposed by the monied men, but the Kearney followers an dthe farmers put it across, with a bare majority of 11,000 votes, out of a total of 145,000 voting.
The next thing was to choose a legislature to carry on the constitution. Had the same influence prevailed in this election as controlled the constitutional convention, the result might have been total assets at the end of the forage for cash, amounted to 15 cents. The cash had been removed at the colse of business, thus disappointing the burglar.
Police said the same men robbed all three stores.
Sacramento, Col.-Nymphula Obseralls was apprehended in Berkeley recently and is being held for deportation.
Sounds like some extremely foreign person, but it is only an insect found on a shipment of water lilies sent to the University of California from Ohio. It is said that the pest bores into the roots and stems, and feeds on the leaves of water lilies, doing great damage to the plants.
Santa Cruz, Cal.-An axe fell out of a tree here recently; struck Allen Salisbury, 12, and cut off two of his toes.
Young Sallsbury and his playmate were in the woods cutting greens. The playmate placed the axe in a tree in such a manner that when it fell, its sharp edge landed on Allen's toes. His chum, a Boy Scout, applied a tourniquet to prevent unnecessary bleeding until help arrived.
Gerber, Cal.-Who says the rabbit is a kind creature?
Joe Putney, Gerber barber, wants to know, for he has reason to believe otherwise. Putney recently had an encounter with a jackrabbit that he'll never forget.
It was on a hunting trip. When Putney spled Br'er Rabbit he decided to capture him alive, and took out after the rabbit on foot. Just as he was about to grasp it by the cars, bunny turned upon him snarling and kicking.
A stroke of the lucky-left-hind tore through Joe's boot, and the sharp claws left a scratch on his leg. After a sharp struggle the rabbit was subdued.
In proof of his story, Putney is willing to show the scratch. Likewise the torn rubber boot, an dthe spot where the encounter occurred.
Santa Rosa, Cal.-S. B. Batsford did a little excavation on his ranch near here, an duncovered a large petrified tree.
The log, a redwood of approximately 4 feet in diameter, is probably a completely preserved tree, although the excavation has not been completed.
Batsford plans extensive excavations in the spring. He wants to know if the soil of his farm holds another "petrified forest" like the one already discovered in Sonoma county, which has made its owner thousands of dollars.

The next thing was to choose a legislature to carry on the constitution. Had the same influence prevailed in this election as controlled the constitutional convention, the result might have been serious. But the Republicans, a conservative group, gained a majority.
Thus a series of statutes was passed which gave effect to the provisions of the constitution on a form perhaps as little harmful as could be contrived, and cedtainly less harmful than had been feared when the constitution was put to vote. Many bad bills, particularly those aimed at the Chinese, were defeated, and history states that generally the expectations of the Sand Lot men were grievously disappointed.
Notes of Intrest ... From Many Towns
San Francisco, Cal.—This old gentleman apparently didn't believe all the reports of a fire in this city.
When John Harvey, 85, arrived at the Ferry building after a trip across the continent from Vermont, he didn't know where to go for it had been some years since he had been in San Francisco. So he stepped up to the information desk and asked:
"Which way to the "What Cheer House?" am, if you please?"
The information clerk was at a loss and her city directory failed to reveal any such name. She asked the man when he had last stopped there.
"Thirty years ago," he replied. He seemed quite disappointed to hear his favorite holstry had gone out of existence.
Bell, Cal.—Maybe the chain grocery business isn't so good either.
When thieves broke into three chain grocery stores in one evening, their

Upon its price equipment, none subscriblement will be enacted effectively. Appreciated for annual telephone instruments, and rearrange connection system, will cost $32,000. Office equipment Anaheim will with facilities This will care for increased telephone development for three or four years, according to Bartlett.
During the early part of 1930 approximately 2,700 feet of conduit and 28,950 feet of telephone cable will be installed in the south and west sections of the exchange. Other cable projects scheduled by the telephone company will be the installation of 10,650 feet of cable in the east section of the exchange, at an expense of $4,720; and the installation of 23,000 feet of cable in the north and south sections at an approximate expense of $17,700. These cables are necessary in connection with the establishment of the dial system here.
Lindsay, Cal.—When John F. Davis rancher, drove into town, someone on the street called to hmi and said:
"Who's that on your running board?"
Davis looked over the side of the car, and to his astonishment saw his 4-year-old daughter, clinging to the car for dear life.
Unknowingly, Davis had left his home 18 miles away and had driven at a lively speed, around curves and over bumpy roads, with the precious passenger aboard.
When he gathered the youngster into his arms and asked why she had come with him, the little girl, almost too frightened to speak, said:
"Jus' wanted to go widin' wiv daddy."
Sacramento, Cal.—Eradication efforts directed at the pink boll worm in Arizona have been started, according to the state department of agriculture here.
With more than 50,000 acres found infested, California is vitally concerned as the fields are on the main highway from Arizona into this state, giving every opportunity for spread o' the pest.
A preliminary estimate places need for federal appropriation of $650,000 to meet the cost of eradiction and reimbursement of owners.
The Chinese are said to export dried eggs by the ton. These, however, are not so satisfactory for throwing purposes.
