IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Los Angeles from all parts of Southern California constantly, will probably be admitted as true by all. This money goes for dry goods, clothing, furniture, groceries, and many other commodities, including printing. It's a good plan to do your trading at home even if your purchases cost you a trifle more than they come to in Los Angeles. As to printing, here are the facts: If this office enjoyed the amount of work that is sent by outside towns to some of the city offices, we could probably reduced rates, although they are now as low as quality of stock and superior workmanship will permit. If our merchants could multiply their business by ten or by fifty indubitably they could offer the public lower prices than at present are possible. This office is the direct means of support of several families, all of whom make it a rule to do their buying of the local grocer, dry-goods man, butcher, baker, furniture dealer, etc. How about that order for jobwork, Mr. Business man, which you sent to Los Angeles this week, when you receive hundreds of dollars annually in trade from this office? Is that giving us a square deal? Let us all get together, brethren, on this subject, and with malice toward none and with charity to all, resolve here and now to do our trading, and all our trading at home.

After the installation services, State Deputy J. P. Burke gave a very interesting and instructive talk on advantages of being a Knight of Columbus. The state deputy also complimented the Anaheim council on its good work and its loyal officers. An unusual event took place last Friday evening in the Presbyterian church. Seven of our Anaheim young girls gave recitations in competition for a silver medal to be awarded by the Woman's Christian Temperance Union to the best speaker decided upon by three competent judges. The contestants were graded in rendering their selections according to voice, articulation, gesture, memory and general effect. The speakers were Elsie Jestea, Irene Mills, Ruby Barnholt, Fanny Click, Adelaide Gates, Lilian Rawlins and Bernice Lagorgue. The medal was awarded to Ruby Barnholt, she having received the highest number of points according to the decision of the judges. Two others received a special mention, while all did admirably well, especially considering this was their first attempt at public speaking. The judges were C. C. Chapman of Fullerton, Mr. Kellogg and Mrs. Rogers of Santa Ana. Mrs. Noll of Los Angeles presided over the meeting in place of Mrs. Rush the local superintendent of medal contest work. Other contests will be given in the future. At high noon, Sunday, Feb. 23, the marriage of Miss Cora I. Bowen and Richard J. Dugdale was celebrated at the Christian church, Rev. Markle officiating. The bride was attended by Miss Ruth Jenness and Ernest Bowen, brother of the bride was best man. The bride's gown was of white silk made princess with a point lace bertha. She wore a veil and orange blossoms and carried a shower bouquet of white carnations. The bridesmaid wore a gown of white silk mull and carried marguerites. Misses Callie Sparks and Carrie Evans were flower girls and carried baskets of rose pedals which they strewed in the bride's path. They both wore white. Miss Una Tingley played the wedding march. After the ceremony an elaborate dinner was served to the guests. After a honeymoon trip to Wadsworth, Nevada, the happy couple will be at home to their friends in this city. President Roosevelt is convinced that Secretary Taft will be nominated on the first ballot and there is no shrewder judge of political events than Theodore Roosevelt. He knows that the people are for his policies and he is sure they will appreciate that Secretary Taft is the only candidate in the field who is for those policies in his heart.

Mrs. Konig entertained the Apollo club on Friday afternoon. An excellent musical program was rendered by the members, at the conclusion of which they sat down to a delicious repast served in Mrs. Konig’s well known hospitable style. The house was decorated in carnations and ferns and the occasion was one long to be remembered. Rev. A. G. L. Trew will hold divine services in the Episcopal church on Sunday morning next. Rev. Trew was, some twenty-five years ago, pastor of the church and many of his old parishioners will be present to meet him. The regular pastor is Rev. Green recently arrived from New Jersey. He will occupy the pulpit a week from Sunday and regularly thereafter. Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Weisel returned on Saturday from Milwaukee after an absence of nine weeks. While in the east they were kept indoors by one of the fiercest blizzards which ever prevailed in that country, and Peter says it is a delight to get back to the sunny skies of Southern California. Mr. Neipp contemplates leaving shortly for Banning where he will spend several weeks for the benefit of his health. His son Gus will accompany him. Ed Marion purchased last week a large number of valencia orange trees from the Teague nurseries at San Dimas which he has set out on his ranch in the West end. Willie Winsell went to Los Angeles on Tuesday on a brief business mission. He has planted twenty acres to potatoes and expects to put in ten acres more. H. H. Gunderson was in Riverside on Saturday attending the ceremonies incident to laying the corner stone of the new Masonic temple. D. Sanchez, a well known resident of Yorba, was in town on Tuesday and made this office a pleasant call. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK FEBRUARY 24, 1883 Wm. Howland, the manager of the company which furnishes Los Angeles with electric light was in Anaheim on Tuesday to see if it is possible to organize a company here to supply the town with the light. To procure the dynamo machine, engine, masts, wire, etc., would require not less than $8000. With that sum a complete plant can be secured and the labor of one man would be all sufficient to run the works. The company which owns the patent right asks no royalty other than a certain portion of paid up stock. Small companies, such as the one proposed here have been formed in a number of instances and success uniformly attends them. The success of the light in Los Angeles is but synonymous with the success of the light elsewhere. Mr. Howland began his enterprise in the teeth of many difficulties and discouragements. At the insipiency his anxiety arose from a doubt as to whether he could over come the prejudice of the people and secure sufficient patronage now, after the lapse of but a few months, his anxiety arises from an inability to furnish light to those who desire it. The capacity of his machines has been taxed to the utmost, and another is now on the way and until it is placed in position he cannot place his lamps in all the stores and houses where they are wanted. Mr. Howland has fully explained his plans to J. Bennerscheidt, who will endeavor to secure the cooperation of our people, and do what he can towards organizing the Anaheim Electric Light company. On the same day the agent of the telephone company canvassed the town in the interest of that twin product of modern science, and we understand he received substantial encouragement. He proposes to run the line from Los Angeles to Anaheim and Santa Ana. The world moves. There has been a change in the management of the Planters Every single man or woman who earned as much as $20 a week last year, 1932, will have to pay an income tax to Uncle Sam this year.. Every married man, or woman who is the head of a family, who earned $50 a week in 1932, is also liable for income tax in 1933, unless there are minor children to be supported. Treasury officials estimate that more than three and one-half million persons who have never paid income tax to the Federal government are obligated to pay it under the law passed last year. And what is worrying the Treasury is the question: Do these taxpayers realize that they have got to report their last year's income and pay tax or go to jail or be fined? It's an impossible game to beat this Federal income tax. With luck, some few may get way with evading it for a while, but when they are caught the penalties are severe, and the accrued tax is a lien that comes ahead of everything else—mortgages, state and local taxes, grocery bills and all. Uncle Sam's Collectors of Internal Revenue have the right to garnishee the salary or wages of anyone liable for Income tax and who does not pay it. The law gives the Federal courts the right to send to prison anybody who fails to report his 1932 income by the 15th of March, 1933. The tax is not very high on small incomes. If one is single and earned $1,200 last year, the highest tax possible would be only $8. And there are exemptions from that. The taxpayer can deduct from net income figures such items as money given to charity or church, taxes of any kind paid to the Federal or local government, interest on business debts and certain kinds of business losses. Treasury Has Record and houses where they are wanted. Mr. Howland has fully explained his plans to J. Bennerscheidt, who will endeavor to secure the cooperation of our people, and do what he can towards organizing the Anaheim Electric Light company. On the same day the agent of the telephone company canvassed the town in the interest of that twin product of modern science, and we understand he received substantial encouragement. He proposes to run the line from Los Angeles to Anaheim and Santa Ana. The world moves. There has been a change in the management of the Planters Hotel. The change was made unexpectedly. The former manager leaving town between the hours of 10 p.m. on Tuesday and 3 a.m. on Wednesday. D. B. Gray is managing the establishment in the interest of the creditors, who are numerous. The rent being paid to March 1st. Capt. Ferguson, the owner of the hotel, cannot take possession until that time, when it is probable that an experienced hotel-keeper will assume the management. If properly conducted the hotel will yield a handsome income. It is well fitted up and furnished and an energetic and accommodating man can attract and retain plenty of customers. An important document was filed for record yesterday in the office of County Recorder Miles. It is a claim to all the water in "La Mission Nieja" creek at "Rocky Point" in Canada Chiquita, in the pueblo of San Juan Capistrano. The claim is based on use running back one hundred years, and the water is to be used in said pueblo for domestic purposes and for irrigation. The paper is signed by a long list of citizens. Mr. Wm. M. Johnson of Michigan asks the Gazette for information regarding matters and things and closes his epistle with the injunction: "What I want is facts and no glowing colors." When Mr. Johnson knows us better, he will learn that we never glow. Facts are our forte. Forty-two columns of them have been sent to Mr. Johnson. An erroneous report regarding the Fairview store has gained currency, and Mr. Cheeseman desires to correct it. He is not going out of business, but in the contrary he proposes to carry a larger stock than ever. C. W. Gibson, from whom Mr. Cheeseman has been purchasing groceries, has quit that line of business, but there are many other sources of supply. There is a water feud at Santa Anita between L. H. Emerson and "Lucky" Baldwin. The latter accompanied by four armed men, went to Emerson's dam in his (Emerson's absence) and demolished it, allowing the stored waters to flow into Baldwin's ditch. Emerson has appealed to the court for protection. Each of the many secret evolent societies in Anaheim have had their "boom" in turn. At present it is the Masonic body which is enjoying an unwonted prosperity. Mr. Reiser, the recently elected master, appears to have infused new life into the order and its membership is being increased at every meeting. Governor Stoneman has appointed the following notaries public for this county: J. T. Gordon, to reside at Azusa; N. A. Young, to reside at Santa Ana. Mr. Plez James, the President The tax is not very high on small incomes. If one is single and earned $1,200 last year, the highest tax possible would be only $8. And there are exemptions from that. The taxpayer can deduct from net income figures such items as money given to charity or church, taxes of any kind paid to the Federal or local government, interest on business debts and certain kinds of business losses. Treasury Has Record A married man without children is allowed $2,500 exemption; an unmarried person only $1000 exemption. Every employer is required to report to the Government how much was paid in salary and commissions to each employee during the year. So the Treasury has a practically complete record, which is sure to be followed up. And when the Treasury agents overtake the individual who has failed to report taxable income, trouble is pretty certain to follow. "The only safe plan for anyone who wants to avoid trouble," said one of the Treasury officials the other day, "is to send to the Income Tax Unit at the Treasury Department, Washington, for the proper form of report to be filled out and filed. Form 1040-A for incomes below $5,000 a year; form 1040 for income of $5,000 or more." The proper form must be filed with the nearest Collector of Internal Revenue by March 15, and at least one-quarter of the tax paid at that time. There is going to be an inaugural parade after all, and General Pershing will be the grand marshal. Units in the parade will include detachments from the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps and the Coast Guard, governors of states with their staffs, the National Guard, the organized Reserves, O.L.S.R Reserve Training Corps, and various fraternal civic and political organizations. Ten thousand will march and the parade will take two hours to pass the new President's reviewing stand in front of the White House. Mr. Roosevelt has invited the twelve surviving members of President Wilson's Cabinet to be his guests that day. Two Likely Bills So far as measures go which are calculated to bring about important economic readjustments, the outlook now is that few, if any, of the projects being debated in this "lame duck" Congress will become law. The two which now seem to have the best chance are Senator Glass' branch banking bill and the La Guardia bill to amend the bankruptcy laws. The branch banking bill has been amended so that it will permit national banks to establish branches only in states where state banks have the same privilege. The purpose of the bill is to do away with the multiplicity of small Each of the many secret evolent societies in Anaheim have had their "boom" in turn. At present it is the Masonic body which is enjoying an unwonted prosperity. Mr. Reiser, the recently elected master, appears to have infused new life into the order and its membership is being increased at every meeting. Governor Stoneman has appointed the following notaries public for this county: J. T. Gordon, to reside at Azusa; N. A. Young, to reside at Santa Ana. Mr. Plez James, the President of the Bank of Anaheim, has been appointed notary public, Geo. B. Shaffer resigned. Mrs. E. Martin and Col. Peter Donahue of San Francisco have been the guests of Mr. R. J. Northam during the week. Mrs. Martin is a large owner in the Sterns Ranchos and takes a lively interest in the management of that great estate. Between the hours of 10 o'clock and 4 o'clock today the electors of Placentia school district will have an opportunity of voting upon the question of issuing bonds of the District to the amount of $2500 for the purpose of building a new school house. Dr. Bardill and family are now comfortably domiciled in the sanatorium. Having complied with the requirements of the law in the matter of filing diploma, etc., the Doctor is now ready to practice his profession. Governor Downey has almost recovered from the injuries received in the Tehachepi disaster, and will soon be able to attend to business again. On Tuesday a freight train drawn by two engines jumped the track about five miles from Sumner. The engine and a number of cars were piled up promiscuously. A fireman named A. W. Sproule was killed and one of the engineers was seriously hurt. Rev. Isaac Jacobus, pastor of the Congregational church of Westminster died in that place on Saturday. He leaves a wife and five children. Rev. F. H. Robinson preached the sermon. Interment was in Los Angeles on Monday. There was less than ten dollars of delinquent town taxes this year. Three small lots of little value were sold by Marshal Tyler at the tax sale on Monday. A stable and corn crib belonging to George Woodington was burned at Westminster last Saturday. No insurance. Loss $150. The branch banking bill has been amended so that it will permit national banks to establish branches only in states where state banks have the same privilege. The purpose of the bill is to do away with the multiplicity of small, weak local banks and establish a system such as works so well in England and Canada, of having local branches of string central banks do the banking business of the community. The La Guardia bill is expected to have smooth sailing, and its effect is expected to be the relief of debtors from their pressing obligations and heavy interest burdens without the expense and stigma of bankruptcy. It is known that many large corporations, including many railroads, are prepared to take advantage of this law as soon as it becomes effective, and it will apply equally to individuals and partnerships who find it impossible to carry on unless they can get, either an extension of time from their creditors, or a reduction in their total indebtedness, or a reduction in the rate of interest they are paying on their obligations—or all three of those. Delay for Farm Relief The domestic allotment plan of farm relief does not seem now as likely to get through a this session as it did a short time ago. Nor does there seem much of a chance before March 4 for the project of Senator Robinson to form a billion-dollar corporation to make 3 percent loans to farmers and to buy up existing mortgages for the purpose of extending them at a lower rate of interest. There is little doubt, however, that as soon as the new Congress gets into its stride some broad measures designed to afford direct and immediate relief to distressed farmers will be adopted. The whole atmosphere of political Washington is saturated with the belief that something must be done to relieve the debtors class of the nation, which is larger than ever before. There "Anaheim, Calif., Feb. 16, 1983 "Mind" Is Subject for Lesson-Sermon "Mind" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Christian Science churches, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The Golden Text is from Isaiah: "The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand." One of the Bible citations in the Lesson-Sermon relates that a man takes with a palsy was brought to Jesus, and states: "And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee . . . Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or say, Rise up and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy.) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thine house. And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God." A passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, includes the following: "If action proceeds from the divine Mind, action is harmonious. The perfect Mind sends forth perfection, for God is Mind." is much less opposition to such proposals than there has been in the past mainly because the vast majority of the populace is in debt, and creditors for their money in full are less valid than the claims of debtors to be relieved of the necessity of paying dollars which are twice as costly as they were when their debts were incurred. Minnesotans Picnic In L. A. Saturday Minnesotans gather this Saturday, February 18, for an all-day picnic-reunion at Sycamore Grove park. Los Angeles, President Marion C. Spicer announced.
