LOARA DISTRICT INCIDENTS IN LIFE OF GAZETTE TO VOTE SCHOOL BONDS, ELECTION FRIDAY, OCT. 25 Ask Approval $18,000 Bond Issue For Construction of New School Voters of the Loara school district will go to the polls on Oct. 25 to determine, for the last time, whether or not $18,000 in bonds shall be approved for the purpose of constructing a new schoolhouse in place of the 50-year old building which is now being used. While a proposal similar in character was defeated by them a short time ago, it was pointed this week that, differing from the situation at that time, the present proposal carries an approved government grant for $14,715. The bonds, if approved by the district, will be in $1000 denominations, run from one to 18 years, and carry interest at five per cent. While plans for the new schoolhouse have not been approved, they will probably include an auditorium large enough to hold 350, four class-rooms, together with several smaller rooms to be For the 65th Anniversary Edition of his newspaper, the late Henry Kuchel, some three short weeks before his passing, sat down and dictated the following article: a glance in retrospect, at the Anaheim Gazette from its creation in 1870. Into it, with the same dauntless enthusiasm and high purpose, which ever marked his course, he has put, clearly, not only the several chapters in the development of the newspaper, but as well the principals upon which he and the Gazette, for over a half century, city, County and State. The Anaheim Gazette was established in 1870 by George W. Barter in a small frame building standing on Chartres street opposite where the Plaindealer was afterwards issued. Barter continued as owner of the Gazette for a year or so and then sold to Charles A. Gardiner, now of South Pasadena, who is rather of advanced age. Gardiner bought the Gazette and continued its publication for about a year. He sold to Melrose & Athearn. However, the new company did not get along well together and Melrose became the proprietor outright. Melrose continued its publication until 1887 when I bought it. Thus seventeen years after it started I owned the property. We have had many fights to null off for the people, one of them the notorious "twilight patient" which sought to impose a royalty upon fumigation for orange trees. Immediately there was a great stir among orange Another scrap the paper had was in county division time in 1889 when Santa Ana sought to cut away from Los Angeles county. A delegation of citizens headed by James McFadden confessed with our people. They Last Rites Held Saturday, Oct. 5th For Mrs. M. Taylor Funeral services for Mrs. Martha A. Taylor, wife of L. Warner Taylor, retired Orange County rancher, who died Thursday at her home, 639 East Lomita, in Glendale, were conducted Saturday, Oct. 5, from the Scover Mortuary. Interment followed at Forest Lawn Memorial Park, in Glendale. Mrs. Taylor, 71 years of age and a native of Hamilton City, Ind., had been a resident of California since 1888. She also leaves four daughters, Mrs. Nora Whittlesey, of Huntington Park, Mrs. Ella McIrvin, of Burbank, Miss Gladys Taylor, of Los Angeles, and Mrs. Evelyn Davis, of Glendale; and six sons, Gover Taylor, of Glendale, Homer Taylor, of Independence, R. L. Taylor, of Glendale, Clifton Taylor, of San Fernando, Lindley Taylor, of Lone Pine, and I. W. Taylor, of Los Angeles. Ball Players Are Victims of Thief More than bases were stolen in the "Anaheim Merchants'" ball game over the week-end. When this week that, differing from the situation at that time, the present proposal carries an approved government grant for $14,715. The bonds, if approved by the district, will be in $1000 denominations, run from one to 18 years, and carry interest at five per cent. While plans for the new school-house have not been approved, they will probably include an auditorium large enough to hold 350, four class-rooms, together with several smaller rooms to be used for offices and nurse's quarters. It is generally considered that such would be the plan. The vote upon that date will conclude definitely the proposition. Under the government grant, bids must have been advertised, and work begun by Dec. 15, or automatically it will be withdrawn. Voting polls will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. The election board will be composed of Clara M. Martin, Lillie M. Schwartzbach, and Anna E. Vogle. The validity of the "Twilight patent" was attacked in the supreme court by the growers and after a long fight the court declared the patent invalid and void. When the old timers here learned the glorious news they rang the fire bell and other bells in town to celebrate. The entire day was given over to jollification and people came in to hear about the good news. Another fight the Gazette had was against the sugar factory on wheels which sought to place bonds in the amount of $600,000 on lands in the trust deed. The first location of the factory was to be at West Anaheim near the Cook warehouse, but after lands had been sold around we were surprised to learn that the factory had been moved to Los Alamitos. Here a sugar mill was finally erected, and fitted with machinery by the Dyer company of Cleveland. I asked Dyer if the building would be called the Anaheim sugar factory. Much to my surprise he shook his head and said the factory was of such national reputation that it would be decked out with national name This and continued its publication for about a year. He sold to Melrose & Athearn. However, the new company did not get along well together and Melrose became the proprietor outright. Melrose continued its publication until 1887 when I bought it. Thus seventeen years after it started I owned the property. We have many fights to pull off for the people, one of them the notorious "twilight patient" which sought to impose a royalty upon fumigation for orange trees. Immediately there was a great stir among orange growers throughout the county. Wm. McFadden, our correspondent at Placentia came into this office and declared that he had fifty-five acres of oranges on Placentia avenue which were not worth one cent if this royalty was suffered to exist. He was informed that the "Twilight Patent" people had sent a man named Smith over to see me, who offered me $250 to favor the patent. Instantly McFadden advanced to the editorial desk and pounded with his fist saying "Here is all the money you need." The offer was made because Smith had threatened to send us to jail for criminal libel. All the growers then promised to stand by us. I informed them that I wished none of their money, but I wanted them to stand by me in storm weather.

When the local players returned to the home of Ray Ortez, their manager, residing at 118 W. Adele street, to change their clothes, they discovered that the house had been entered in their absence, and their money and other valuables had been taken. While only about $2 in currency was taken, such things as rings, and bank-books left behind by the players had all been stolen. Last Services Held For Mrs. Zylpha Myers Funeral services were held last Thursday for Mrs. Zylpha Myers, of 211 Mills Drive, Anaheim, from the chapel of Backs, Terry, and Campbell, with the Rev. Cheek, pastor of the Wesley Methodist Church South conducting them. Interment was in Melrose Abbey. Deceased had lived, for the past three years, with her daughter, Mrs. Virgie Palm, of the above address. She came from Iowa. Besides Mrs. Palm, those surviving are three sons, Paul, of Plains, Kans., Charles and Arthur, of Springfield, Colo.; a sister, Mrs. Florn Ralston, of Los Angeles; and two brothers, Leonard Webber, of Blackwell, Okla., and Charles Webber, of Pueblo, Colo. Cook warehouse, but after lands had been sold around we were surprised to learn that the factory had been moved to Los Alamitos. Here a sugar mill was finally erected, and fitted with machinery by the Dyer company of Cleveland. I asked Dyer if the building would be called the Anaheim sugar factory. Much to my surprise he shook his head and said the factory was of such national reputation that it would be decked out with some national name. This was done and it has been known as the Los Alamitos sugar factory although privately owned by Clark. Of ourse no sugar is being manufactured there now, nor has been for some years past. Some time before the erectors of the sugar factory tried to issue bonds in the amount of $600,000 but the files of the abstract company showed that the head man of the sugar beet company was in the deal for ten shares although voting many more during the years of its organization, and with the accretions, of stock from different growers was entirely able to control. When the final day came to vote approval of the bond issue Tim Carroll came into this office and showed that the abstract company had delivered him an abstract of their record showing that this man had only 10 shares in the trust deed instead of the large number he had been voting since the organization of the company. Of course that put the meeting into considerable of a riot and this man was roundly denounced. Of course they went into insolvency. There was considerable printing to be done, including a long list of stockholders who had not paid and the amount of the printing charge went into a respectable sum, but all of this printing and advertising was sent to the little paper around the corner which has long since passed away. Other minor scraps came along at election time and at primary election time, people had it in their heads that the turn of their section was coming and they would announce themselves for office. I said no matter where he came from we must pick out the best man for office. Several gentlemen who had been especial friends of mine were rather unfriendly to me after that and we became estranged. But this fight will go on and during election time you can look for the men who are anxious for office. Last Rites Are Held For Late Geo. H. Hemphill Funeral services were held this week for George H. Hemphill, 89, a resident of Anaheim for approximately 12 years. He had only recently returned to Duchesne, Utah, with his daughter, Mrs. J. J. Orr, where he had planned to spend some time before returning here. It was his boyhood home. Besides Mrs. Orr, survivors of deceased are two sons: George D. Hemphill, of Provo, Utah, and Everett F. Hemphill, of Dallas, Texas. Mr. Hemphill was the father of the late Tom Hemphill, who was killed last July 6, while traveling to the Metropolitan Water Aqueduct, where he was working.

Several plans were called to their attention. One dealt with a proposal for a low dam in Santa Ana canyon, together with channel protection and conservation works. It was pointed out that it might be handled by the Orange County Water District. A further proposal would seek federal aid in the development of the Santa Ana river alone; a dam would be erected upon either the upper or lower Prado dam sites. This proposal would exclude Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Fullerton, the three county cities in the FROM OUT THE PAST “The Gazette” Anaheim Gazette, October 29, 1870 Well, here is the Anaheim Gazette. After various delays and annoyances incident to establishing a business, our paper goes forth to the light of day in tolerant good order. Elsewhere we give a few scraps of many things lished about us. Many other things privately said reached our private ear. In substance, the latter amends to but this: Our jealous acquaintances say we will succeed; that the resources of the City of Anaheim and the southern portion of the county are not sufficient to support a newspaper. Our friends (thank heart we have six.) say never was there so bright a prosperity time is ripe, and you. Barter, have occupied the field. In both these expressions the “wish” is parent to “opinion” and both are mere rattling, half digged words. We are much inclined to side with the opinion of our friends. However, as the days of prophesy have passed some thousands of years, and as the future is unknown even for one short hour, time alone may determine the success of the Gazette. Only grant we know more of our own affairs and of the newspaper business, than those who pass adverse opinions upon and who for the most part have passed their obsessions, pitchfork in hand within the purlieu of some genial barnyard and we are satisfied. OUR COURSE It is natural that the people should inquire what titude, politically or otherwise, a newspaper is assume, whenever one is established among them. Meet then this inquiry, we volunteer a statement of Policy of the Gazette, so far as is now known to Editor. scrap the paper had county division time in Santa Ana sought to from Los Angeles council of citizens headlines McFadden confined people. They agreed to be submitted to the providing the northern line be placed at New York a day or two before meeting the bill was provided that the boundary line should be Creek. When the old learned of this there part of defiance. They agree to it, and neither single man in this town who had favored it northern boundary place River now came out with the boundary place Creek. This bill was Victor Montgomery for a two thirds main election and again Hudden came in saying ought to be fair enough. He said there was favorable sentiment in the Fullerton districts in Garden Grove and Pier. He found there was an element supporting this city. A vote came the county was organized majority. Orange was town after the county Anaheim would have leave the county seat, recognized that we were enough for it and the dropped. Later on was proposed to issue the erection of the court he was opposition, but carried by a two-thirds all over the county and be a very good investment building is the best money in this part of the books, deeds, vouchers many papers representing dollars of property had in a flimsy building fourth street where the officials also held their minor scraps came along time and at primary time, people had it in their turn of the year. A further proposal would seek federal aid in the development of the Santa Ana river alone; a dam would be erected upon either the upper or lower Prado dam sites. This proposal would exclude Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Fullerton, the three county cities in the Metropolitain Water district; it would be determined by a vote of property owners only, as provided for in the by-laws of the county water district. Favorable to this measure, it was said that the cost, including the federal grant, might be confined to a figure between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000. ROTARIANS HEAR ETHIOPIAN TALK A word picture of the country of Ethiopia and the conditions which the invading forces of the Italian must face were explained in detail to the members of the Rotary Club here last Monday noon when Prof. Wilbur S. Tupper of Whittier College. Prof. Tupper explained that due to the semi-barbaric setup of the people of Ethiopia that "no one, not even the emperor" knows exactly how many people there are in the country. "Ethiopia is made up of three distinct races, and there never has been a census taken, therefore the best that can be said about the population is that there are somewhere between 10,000,000 and 12,-000,000 inhabitants. "The country is of composite climate ranging from the hottest type of tropics to the moderate weather. By reason of this, they are enabled to raise any kind of crops that are raised in any part of the world. "The area, to give something visual, of the country would coincide with, we'll say, the states of Washington, Oregon and California with a small portion of Nevada. This country is wanted by Italy for the purpose of obtaining raw materials, of which she has none. Also Italy's soil is so old that it will produce little or nothing on the way of varied crops." Some people wonder why Italy business, than those who pass adverse opinions upon and who for the most part have passed their obsives, pitchfork in hand within the purlieus of some genial barnyard and we are satisfied. OUR COURSE It is natural that the people should inquire what titude, politically or otherwise, a newspaper is assume, whenever one is established among them. Meet then this inquiry, we volunteer a statement of Policy of the Gazette, so far as is now known to Editor. For the present or until some strong political feeble in the land may oblige us to treat of politics, we propose to ignore them altogether. We have stated in our Prospectus that we were to be "Independent." and be Independent, means simply to sustain the best and measures for the common good, so far as the appears to the editor and proprietor of a newspaper. We, fortunately, engage in publishing this newspaper by own reason and will, untrammeled by any, co-pelled in no way to support any faction or institution and so help us Jupiter, as we value freedom and its dependence, we will try to sustain this attitude. If there is one trait in the human mind, that called despicable, and which brands its possessor a first class scoundrel, it is that one which actuates giving forth of personal vituperation, and assailing character of another, through the medium of the Pro We loath and despise it. We were raised in a different school of writers; and had we not been, our institution would naturally recoil from such a course. Yet, she we, now and then see proper to administer a wholesale rebuke or admonition to certain insolent curs, that winds have occasionally brought us into unwilling tact with throughout this state, our readers will in mind that we know whereof we speak, that Gazette is our own newspaper and that we reserve especial privilege from the start.

One hundred and twenty-five guests sat down to dinner arranged by Mrs. John Molt, who was assisted by Mrs. Hattie Pearson, and a committee of the Ladies' Aid, which took general charge of the affair.

Manslaughter Charge Against Jack M. Vidosh Jack M. Vidosh, of East Broadway, Anaheim, was bound over to the Superior Court this (Thursday) morning, as a result of his preliminary hearing in the Santa Ana Justice court. Although original bail fixed, $10,000, was lessened to $5,000, Vidosh was unable to meet this figure, and, as a result, was remanded to the county jail. The charge grew out of the automobile accident which occurred in Santa Ana last week, and which resulted in the death of S. A. "Al" Hayward, plumbing contractor, of Laguna Beach. While the stories concerning the mishap are conflicting, the one upon which Santa Ana's assistant chief of police, Harry Fink, bases the city's charge is that the defendant was driving upon the wrong side of the road and that the collision was a head-on crash. Vidosh has a different account of the transaction. Ernest Du Bois, manager of the Dutch Boy Paint store, with his family left yesterday for Monterey to enjoy a stay at that popular resort town.
