Visitors to the Fair next week should make a point of looking at the display of sorgum sugar and syrup which we are told
will be made. There is every reason to believe that the growing
of sorgum will soon be come one of the leading industries of Los
Angeles county. The yield of syrup is marvelous. We have already stated that from one acre of cane at Garden Grove 222 gallons of syrup was produced. In an address at an Agricultural Fair
in one of the Eastern States Commissioner Le Duc said that from
one acre of Minnesota Early Amber cane, 525 gallons of syrup
had been made—equal to 4,200 pounds of sugar. The riper the
cane gets the better is the syrup produced. We have at our
office a sample of sorgum sugar made by Mr. Gates. Rev. M.
Strong of Westminster has taken some of the mush-sugar to San
Francisco and will submit it to the refinery there to learn what
they can afford to pay for such an article. We expect to get some
information from him on his return.
Mrs. C. P. Taggart of San Diego delivered a political address
at that place on Tuesday night in which she paid particular attention to Wallace Leach. She did not.
"Take him up tenderly, lift him with care:
Fashioned so slenderly, young and so fair."
On the contrary she lambasted him fearfully, charging him with
every crime imaginable and supporting some of the charges by
producing written substantiations of them. She said he was a
mixture of Cain, Ishmael and Judas Iscariot—a Cain because he
incited and procured a murderous attack upon her husband; an
Ishmaelite because the hand of every honest man was against
him, and a Judas Iscaroit because he had repeatedly sold his
friends for much less than 30 pieces of silver.

The New York Herald of October 12 says: The vote is so close in both Ohio and Indiana that complete returns will not be available for a day or two. But the details at hand show such Republican gains in both states as denote a decisive Democratic defeat. In Ohio, Hamilton county, the Democratic stronghold has gone Republican, and the Republicans claim a plurality of 20,000 on the state ticket and a heavy gain in congressmen. Indiana is in doubt. Both parties claim it as we go to press. But it is apparent that even if the Democrats carry it, it will be by no such majority as the 14,000 of two years ago: That is to say the Democrats are substantially beaten. If it shall turn out that they have elected their governor by a reduced majority this will be but small comfort for them, considering the result in Ohio. They hoped and looked for a vote which should show the other states that the set of the tide was against the Republicans as they have acknowledged that their chief expectations of success depended on it in November, but the set of the tide seems to be against them. If it shall turn out that they have lost Indiana as well as Ohio, the general and we belive—the correct impression will be that this substantially decides the Presidential contest and makes General Garfield the next President.
Among the celebrities who will honor the Fair with their presence, besides several citizens of Anaheim, are President and Mrs. Hayes, General Sheman, Secretary of War Ramsey and General Fremont. The Fair will commence on Monday, and there will be special features every day during the week.
The present is a busy time in Anaheim. Wine making is in progress, and every body is making atonement for the idleness of the part few months. The yield of grapes is good—better than it has been for the past five years. The conditions for fermentation are good, the preponderance of yeast in the must and the cool even temperature favoring an active and unintermittent fermentation.
We are gratified to learn that there will be a display of Anaheim wines made at the Fair by several vineyardists. It is unfortunate (for the Fair) that the present time is one of great activity with that class, as there would doubtedless be a larger exhibit if the wine-makers had time to spare to attend to the matter.
We learn that a large part of the San Joaquin rancho will be put in wheat the coming season, as a result of the favorable terms offered renters by the owner. It would be well for those who intend to rent to make early application and thus get the pick of the land.
The exports from the depot for the month of September amounted to 712,022 pounds and the imports to 295,988 pounds.

The exports from the depot for the month of September amounted to 712,022 pounds and the imports to 295,988 pounds. The exports were four times as much as for the month previous. Business is good this month also, and a great deal of grain is being shipped daily.
A large calabasas (squash) in the shape of a horseshoe, three pomigranates curiously grown together and a corn stalk with nine ears of corn thereon were forwarded to the Fair by Messrs. Davis & Bro. The curiosities were grown on Pio Davila's farm.
On Tuesday while Chris Callian was taking apart a pistol for the purpose of cleaning it, a charge which was in the cylinder exploded, the ball passing through Callian's hand and thigh, inflicting painful flesh wounds.
A very heavy sand storm prevailed yesterday, the culmination of frequent ominous desert-breaths which reached here a few moments every day during the past week.
Mr. Frank Rimpau left on Monday for San Francisco, to fill a position in a drug store in that city and to attend lectures at the Pharmacical College.
Ramon Reina, supposed to be one of the bandits who operated in Anaheim some months ago, was captured in Bakersfield and brought to Los Angeles Tuesday.
Among the deeds filed for record during the week is one from A. T. Ferdon to Harriet M. Fish, conveying 3½ acres in Anaheim extension, consideration $750.
The vacancy in the school department has been filled by the appointment of Mrs. Kate M. Hare, who has had five years experience as a teacher in the San Francisco schools.
Mr. Eugene Meyer has been appointed consular agent for France at the city of Los Angeles with full power to transact all the business appertaining to that office.
The rain of last Friday amounted to .27. No damage of any amount resulted from the shower as the winds which succeeded the rain dried the stacks of grain thoroughly.

OCTOBER 19, 1905
A number of important public issues were up for discussion
at a meeting of representatives of the Chambers of Commerce
of Santa Ana. Fullerton and Anaheim at the assembly room of the
latter in this city on Friday evening, J. F. Ahlborn presided and
E. Michod acted as secretary. There were present from Santa
Ana: F. P. Nickey, president of the chamber of commerce; Sentor Anderson, County Theasurer Potter, John Cubbon. From
Fullerton, Dr. Freeman, Dr. Clark, Mr. Wickersheim, W. T. Brown,
John R. Gardiner, Mr. Kerr, Postmaster Tressler and others. This
city was represented by Edw Michod, W. H. Spake, J. F. Ahlborn,
C. F. Grim, Dr. Johnston, Henry Adams, L. E. Miller, H. A. Dickel,
J. B. Rea, Henry Kuchel. Mr. Nickey spoke at some length upon
the electric railway situation and extended an invitation to Fullerton and Anaheim to come to Santa Ana on the occasion of the
entering of the electric railway into that city. The invitation was,
on motion of Mr. Grim, accepted on behalf of this city and on
motion of Dr. Freeman, accepted in behalf of Fullerton.
John Hanna of Miraflores reports that on Monday while a
clock of ducks were in the act of flying southwaard over his orchard, one of them, apparently exhausted, fell fluttering to the
ground. It was caught without difficulty, and upon examination
was found to be uninjured. No sign of shot could be discovered,
the bird seemed to be merely exhausted. Mr. Hanna says that
when ducks fly south it means rain, but he would be glad to know
what kind of omen it is when one of them falls in one's back
yard.
John Hartung will leave in a few days for a fortnight's visit
to San Francisco. He will visit old familiar places, and will doubtless try his hand again at fishing for pigees off the Mission stand
Pink Slip Shows
Auto Ownership
Prospective purchasers of motor vehicles are urged by the State Division
of Motor Vehicles to guard themselves against fraud by remembering that the State of California issues a certificate of title (pink slip) which should be demanded by the purchaser if the car is sold to him by an individual.
Frequently, the division's warning stated, the purchaser of the car pays a large sum to the individual selling it in the mistaken belief that he is to become the legal owner but fails to demand the certificate of title.
Too late he discovers he has been "bilked" because the seller has disappeared. He then learns the seller was not the legal owner but that some other person or firm has a prior claim on the car.
The division's warning stated the pink certificate constitutes the sole evidence of ownership and is as indispensable as a deed to a piece of real estate.
In the event the purchaser buys his cars from a registered new or used car dealer and pays cash or its equivalent, the dealer is required to report the sale to the division and the purchaser should receive his certificate of title (pink slip) within 15 days after the deal has been consummated. It he does not receive it, he should notify the division, giving the license and motor number of the car he purchased.
Upon purchasing a car from an individual who is the legal owner the purchaser should receive the pink slip from the seller properly signed in the spaces provided. He should send this and the certificate of registration at once to the division together with a fee of $1 to cover the transfer. New certificates will then be issued and returned to him.
"The certificate of title is your protection," said the division's warning.
"Demand it when you purchase a car and if the seller does not have it and is not the legal owner, get in touch with the legal owner and find out the status of the vehicle before completing

John Hartung will leave in a few days for a fortnight's visit to San Francisco. He will visit old familiar places, and will doubtless try his hand again at fishing for pigees off the Mission stand wharf. He used to go to school in San Francisco with John D. Spreckles.
O. A. Mullinix of Santa Ana has purchased the drug store of W. B. Hutchinson and will this week assume charge of the establishment. Mr. Mullinix is a pharmacist of many years experience and contemplates many improvements in the business. Mr. Hutchinson will give his personal attention to his Westminster drugstore, but will probably continue to reside here for some time.
Henry Hussman on Tuesday let a contract to J. H. Boney for construction of a six room residence at the corner of Lemon and Chestnut streets, the cost to be $2,000. The residence will be occupied by the Hussman family. Henry contemplates the erection of a brick block on property now occupied by the family as a residence.
Theo Rimpau this week sold 127 acres a mile west of Los Angeles city limits to a syndicate at a consideration of $110,000. The sale is subject to confirmation by the superior court, and other bidders may increase the price by 10 per cent. Several other syndicates are desirous of purchasing the tract, and increased offers are expected. Mr. Rimpau retains 400 acres of land adjoining the property, which was owned in 1832 by the father of Mrs. Rimpau. It has remained in possession of the family until the present time and while worth $1 per acre fifty years ago, the 400 acre piece yet retained was recently appraised at $750 per acre.

He should send this and the certificate of registration at once to the division together with a fee of $1 to cover the transfer. New certificates will then be issued and returned to him.
"The certificate of title is your protection," said the division's warning. "Demand it when you purchase a car and if the seller does not have it and is not the legal owner, get in touch with the legal owner and find out the status of the vehicle before completing the deal."
Pittsburgh Firm To Double Ad Allotment
Pittsburgh Plate Glass company, which recently purchased a large tract of land near Santa Ana and announced plans for the construction of a $4,000-000 plant, this week officially announced that its advertising appropriation for the year 1931 has been doubled, and that about $2,000,000 will be spent in that form of sales promotion for the coming season, according to B. F. Spencer, local agent whose office is on West Center street.
Too Much ACID
MANY people, two hours after eating, suffer indigestion as they call it. It is usually excess acid. Correct it with an alkali. The best way, the quick, harmless and efficient way, is Phillips Milk of Magnesia. It has remained for 50 years the standard with physicians. One spoonful in water neutralizes many times its volume in stomach acids, and at once. The symptoms disappear in five minutes.
You will never use crude methods when you know this better method. And you will never suffer from excess acid when you prove out this easy relief.

"MY father, who is past 75, shares our bottle of Syrup Pepsin with his little great-granddaughter aged three. And when I feel constipated, with headache and biliousness, I also get my share of Syrup Pepsin. We would as soon think of being without salt and sugar as not to have a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in the house." (Name and address will be furnished upon request)
