The census office has issued a preliminary exhibit of the statistics of the daily press of the United States. The total number of daily journals in this country during the census year is placed at 962, which includes 80 dailies which were suspended and 114 which were established in that year. The aggregate daily circulation is placed at 3,581,187, and the aggregate annual circulation at 1,127,337,355.

The Town Trustees were petitioned two months ago to put a public watering trough in some central part of the town, the necessity for such an improvement being very apparent, especially during the hot summer months. Difficulty was experienced by the trustees in procuring a suitable site, but that obstacle has been removed by the generous action of Messrs. Hammel & Denker of Los Angeles, who have made a gift to the town of lot 9 in Block G in vineyard lot D-3. The lot is 45 by 120 feet and is situated where the Adventists had their tent. It is proposed, we understand, to put a handsome fountain and watering trough on the lot and plant it in shade trees, making it an attractive and ornamental small park. The generous donors can rest assured that their gift is appreciated.

Dr. H. A. Johnston went to Santa Ana yesterday for the State Speed Laws Are Not Removed
Declaring that a general impression seems to prevail that speed restrictions have been removed in California by the legislature, E. Raymond Cato, superintendent of the California Highway Patrol, warps motorists that the speed limits must be obeyed and that officers of the patrol will enforce the law.
Cato pointed out that the only legislation on speed had been to increase maximum limits five miles an hour and that the bill incorporating these provisions had not yet been signed by Governor Ralph. He added:
"Forty miles an hour is still the legal limit on the open highways of California and will continue to be for some time. In the event Governor Rolph signs the Breed bill which increases the limit to 4 miles per hour, the change would not become effective until August 13, 1931."
"An erroneous impression seems to prevail among a great many drivers that the speed limit has been removed. This is not true although there was..."

Father Hahn said he was taking his proteges about southern California showing them the various points of interest. The band played a number of selections sang the Red, White and Blue at the close of the program. Father Hahn and his boys took the afternoon train for Los Angeles and returned to Banning the evening.
Charles Albrecht came in this week from Stadler where he is interendent of a winery working up the product of a 2000 acre yard. Mr. Albrecht says the vines are looking splendidly through this season’s crop is not heavy. The vines are four and years old and have had no irrigation although the company is pumping plant and several miles of pipes and ditches.

Napoleon Hart went to Los Angeles on Tuesday to make final distribution of monies belonging to the estate of Mrs. Marset Metz, who died three years ago in April. The estate consists of $16,000 in cash, which will this week be disbursed to seven distant relatives in Germany, the largest individual share being $4000. The deceased left an estate of the total value of 20,000 and all but the money in bank has been passed upon by accounts. She left no children nor near relatives in this country; it required a year to locate distant kin beyond the sea. Another long interval elapsed before proof of their identity could be procured. Now, three years after her death the last of the monies remaining in the estate is about to be disbursed.
Among political announcements subject to the decision of the Republican county convention we copy the following: George S. Smith of Santa Ana (incumbent), candidate for coroner and public Administrator. George E. Peters (incumbent) for records; J. Walker of Buena Park for sheriff; W. M. Scott of Santa Ana Assessor: Bryant Williams of Orange, candidate for county clerk; Clyde L. Bishop of Santa Ana, candidate for assemblyman; G. Potter of Santa Ana, county treasurer; J. B. Nichols of Santa Ana (incumbent) candidate for county superintendent ofools; I. Howard Bell of Santa Ana for District Attorney; George E. Dutton of Anaheim candidate for supervisor of third district; Samuel M. Davis, for district attorney; Cal D. Lester of Santa Ana (present county clerk) candidate for auditor; C. E. Dock of Fullerton candidate for sheriff.
The republican county convention which meets at Santa Ana on Tuesday can with a fitting sense of propriety renew its reliance to the platform adopted by the last national convenience. The republicans of Orange county can enthusiastically enlarge the principles enunciated by the convention which nominatetheodore Roosevelt for president. The republicans of Orange city and of California endorse the Panama canal, and indulge hope that this isthmian waterway may be speedily constructed and opened to the commerce of the world. The Pacific coast can especially strong interest in the canal. The republican day of reclaiming the arid west, of conserving flood waters, of constructing great reservoirs to impound the priceless flow of essential streams, the policy of reforestation—all are possessed the greatest interest to our people, as well as the tariff, the bill and other matters now before the country.

Restless CHILDREN
CHILDREN will fret, often for no apparent reason. But there's always Castorial As harmless as the recipe on the wrapper; mild and bland as it tastes. But its gentle action soothes a youngster more surely than a more powerful medicine.
That's the beauty of this special children's remedy! It may be given the tiniest infant—as often as there is need. In cases of colic, diarrhea or similar disturbance, it is invaluable. A coated tongue calls for just a few drops to ward off constipation; so does any suggestion of bad breath. Whenever children don't eat well, don't rest well, or have any little upset—this pure vegetable preparation is usually all that's needed.
