IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain The Only Authentic History In Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 15, 1885 Silver is a very scarce article, and business men are put to great inconvenience in making change. This in view of the plithora of silver in the treasury vaults recalls the cry of the Ancient Mariner—water, water everywhere, and not a drop to drink. The circumlocution office of the national government, finding that bankers and others could withdraw silver from the various mints without the amount of "red tape" business, which is necessary to keep the government employees employed, has ordered that all requisitions for silver coin, instead of being sent to the mints, must be sent to the treasurer at Washington, who will in due course of time give the mint superintendents instructions to fill the requisitions. Heretofore, for instance, the Bank of Anaheim when in need of silver, sent a check to the San Francisco mint, and received the silver in a few days. Now, he has to send his requisition to Washington, and in the indefinite future the necessary order will be given to the mint superintendent to let Mr. Plez James have the silver, Verily, great is circumlocation. The issue of standard dollars for the week ending August 8th was 285,998. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 11, 1910 County Clerk Williams has completed the figures of registration in Orange county, which shows the republicans outnumber the democrats more than 3 to 1. In the county entitled to vote at the primary election on August 16 are 5140 republicans, 1536 democrats and 205 socialists. Those declining to state their party affiliation number 281, and those who have registered independent number 18. A lodge of Knights of the Royal Arch was organized in this city on Friday with twenty members. Thos. W. Roulo of Los Angeles was installing officer. He was accompanied by a number of members of the order from the Angel city. The following officers were elected: C. O. Rust, past valiane commander; Wm. Stark, Valiant commander; John Zeigler, lieutenant commander; M. M. Boege, treasurer; J. Walls, Orator; F. C. Conhad, Jr., recorder; Roman Wisser, master of ceremonies; Wm. Fischer, captain of guard; Joseph Hessel, tyler. Mack Atherton set a coyote trap on his father's place at the ostrich farm the other evening, in anticipation of catching one of the and those wanting a cow, or who other people have hay. Miss Ruby Cassou gave a farewell party at the home of her parents on West Center street last week in honor of Miss Ida Heying who has gone to Los Angeles to live with her parents. Refreshments consisting of ice cream cake, candy, and punch were served. Each of the guests brought a souvenir for Miss Ida and all declare they had a jolly afternoon. Those present were Misses Frances Backs, Ruth Grim, Ida Heying, Elba Stark, Edith Simpson, Ida Dyckman, Elsie Zeigler, Mable Zeigler, Augusta Lensing, Lillian Wipperman, Esther Lewis and Stella Masselin of Los Angeles. Earl Abbey now prefers Bay City to Balboa to spend his leisure hours. Earl likes the fishing at Bay City. Last Monday in company of two young ladies he rowed out beyond the breakers. The catch was nine dozen and one-half (108½) herring, all landed by the snag process. Ground was broken yesterday for a building to be erected by Mrs. Konig on South Los Angeles street, next to Dr. Johnston's office. The building will be used as an electrical bath house, and will be substantially constructed. The engagement of Miss Valla of Los Nietos and Erwin Bayha of Yorba is announced. The wedding day is set for a date in October. Mrs. Hattie Mitchell of Hollywood will shortly begin the erection of a business block on her property on Los Angeles street. There will be three or four store- Fairview school reopened on last Monday morning with an attendance of 47 pupils. Ten more promise to put in an appearance next Monday which will embrace the total scholastic population of the district. The interest manifested by the patrons of the school is attributable to the selection made by the trustees of the teacher, F. S. Wallace, who has served during the two preceding terms. He has given the greatest satisfaction to all concerned. The sublimity of cheek was never better exemplified than when the northern immigration association in convention assembled resolved: That in the northern counties of the state all the semitropic fruit can be grown as well as in the southern end. That is all gammon and spinach, of course, and is spread out as molasses to catch immigrants. Northern California will become noted for the production of semi-tropic fruits about the time that Fort Yuma will be celebrated as a summer resort. Mr. D. W. Coquillett returned home on Saturday from the grasshopper afflicted regions where he has been studying the pest, in accordance with the instructions of the Department of Agriculture. He is now preparing his report. Prof. Riley, the Entomologist of the Department of Agriculture, writes to Mr. Coquillett that he will probably visit California in September. The Downey Review says: Parties have been here during the past week paying two and a half cents per pound for pears delivered in Los Angeles. An ordinary pear tree will produce two hundred pounds. One hundred and Mack Atherton set a coyote trap on his father's place at the ostrich farm the other evening, in anticipation of catching one of the varmints. On going to the trap next morning he beheld a large badger securely held in the sprung trap by two of its toes. The trap was reset and next morning another large badger, evidently the other one's mate, was entrapped. Both animals were sent to the happy hunting grounds. Julius Schneider, deputy horticultural commissioner is carrying on a campaign against the Russian thistle, Johnson grass, morning glory, annis and other noxious patches throughout this portion of the county and is inaugurating vigorous warfare against them. Articles of incorporation were filed on Monday by the Anaheim Sanitorium which articles state that the company proposes erecting a building for the care and treatment of anyone desiring the benefit of a sanitorium or hospital and that it proposes establishing a training school for nurses. The capital stock is $25,000. The incorporators are Drs. H. A. Johnston, J. L. Beebe, W. M. Wickett, and C. E. Holcomb of Anaheim and Samuel Kraemer of Placentia. Frank Monaghan was in town from Santa Ana a day or two ago. Frank ran the first Southern Pacific train from Los Angeles to this city in 1877. For a number of years he has been interested in mining enterprises in Arizona, and is said to have more dinero than desire to go into the dairy business have in his offer an opportunity seldom available. Mr. F. H. Deethman has returned from Chicago and is preparing to begin business in the store on the northeast corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, he having purchased a large stock of dry goods while in Chicago. The Downey Review says: Parties have been here during the past week paying two and a half cents per pound for pears delivered in Los Angeles. An ordinary pear tree will produce two hundred pounds. One hundred and twenty-five trees to the acre. Oh, you croakers, figure it up! Only six hundred and twenty-five dollars per acre. Our lands are too high, you can't make a living or interest in land with a hundred and fifty dollars an acre. The same party offered two cents and pick the fruit from the tree. The apportionment of state school funds amounting to $377,-646 has been made among the counties. Los Angeles having 15,-218 children between 5 and 17 years of age receives $22,976.18, being $1.51 per child. There are 1,136 more children in this county now then there were last year. There are in the state 250,097 children of school age. When Mr. Selinger returned to Austria after having purchased vineyards here, he took with him a dozen bottles of Mr. Fred Hartung's wine. He reports that about two hundred neighbors sampled the wine and to make it go around the quantum was exceedingly small. But those few bottles of California wine created quite a commotion. Its fine quality was highly praised and that particular neighborhood has gained new ideas of California which may result in inducing immigration to the state. The dairy stock offered by Mr. J.K. Tuffree, in the advertisement to which we call attention, is known to be of the best strains Mr. F.H. Deethman has returned from Chicago and is preparing to begin business in the store on the northeast corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, he having purchased a large stock of dry goods while in Chicago. Justice Pierce's court was enlivened on Tuesday morning by the arrest and trial of seven seedy individuals charged with vagrancy. Two were arrested in town. The other five near the railroad depot. The charge failed to be sustained; and the judge after imparting a few words of admonition advised them to leave town forthwith, which it is presumed they did. Mr. John Hanna took a recreational trip to the sawmill region of San Bernardino mountains and returned to Santa Monica beach on Thursday to rest and refresh himself. At Colton, Riverside and San Bernardino, he was quite warmly welcomed—by the thermometers. It ranged from 110 to 112 degrees. W.A.Witte, secretary of the Anaheim Immigration association, has been very seriously ill for some days past, but yesterday there was a marked improvement in his condition. The people of Downey, who held a very successful fair last year are contemplating another venture of the same kind. Mr. John J.Weglein of the firm of B.Dreyfus & Co., is in town on a short visit. Attention is directed to the advertisement of S.A.Dennis. He offers two good wagons for sale cheap. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Townsendites Plan Welcome McGroarty John Steven McGroarty, Poet Laureate of California and often called her best loved citizen will be welcomed on his return from Washington at a huge picnic in Brookside Park, Pasadena, August 18th. As Representative in Congress from the Eleventh District of California, he has been at the Nation's capital since the first of the year. Almost immediately following his election last fall he stepped into the national limelight as sponsor of Townsend Plan legislation and his efforts to bring about the abolishment of the Indian Bureau, although not so well known to the public, have been noteworthy. All civic organizations will be asked to combine in making one big event to which it is expected people will flock from all parts of Southern California to hear Mr. McGroarty render an account of his stewardship and give his views on national affairs. His opinions regarding President Roosevelt's Administration and the future of the Townsend Plan will leave an effect on coming political developments that will make this event an historic one. lish and son left last week for Bear Valley and the country beyond to look for deer. They will be gone a month. Capt. and Mrs. Williams, Miss Kate Rea, Miss Eleanora Parker, and Wm. Schnolze left on Tuesday for an auto trip to Mt. Baldy. They will be absent several days. Herman Backs and Walter Mickel are spending their vacations near San Juan Hot Springs. OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ORANGE COUNTY Santa Ana, California.
