50 Years Ago Jan. 2, 1887. The county of Los Angeles casts as many votes as the state of Nevada or the Territory of Arizona. The present Great Register contains the names of about eight thousand voters in the city of Los Angeles. At the estimate of five persons to each voter, the city has a population of not less than 40,000. The books of three water companies corroborate the foregoing estimate, an increase of four-fold in the past five years. At the above figures the county certainly has a population of not less than 80,000 for its country is growing faster than the city. The population of the county is more than one-fifth of that of San Francisco, and one-fifteenth of the entire population of California. Extracts from proceedings of the meeting of directors of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company last week: A communication from the Anaheim Union Water company was presented, the tenor of it being they decline to enter into a contract to bear half the expense of a suit to restrict illegal appropriations of their lawful amount of water unless we would join them in other schemes for developing water, believing it would be better for both companies, because, first, more water is required; second, a division of 25 Years Ago Jan. 4, 1912. The big Dreyfus Winery building, one and one-fourth miles southwest of Anaheim, which has been vacant since 1899, save for the bats and owls that have used it for a rendezvous or a roosting place, is finally to be transformed into a place of industry or at least usefulness. The building and the eight and one-half acres of land which goes with it were purchased last week by Messrs. John Walls and John Cook and will be put into shape for occupancy at once. The building was erected in 1887 by Ben Dreyfus for use as a winery. The brick work was done by Charles Schindler, and W. H. Dripps of Santa Ana secured the contract for the carpenter work. It was probably the most substantial building in Orange county at that time. The walls are 14 inches thick, it is three stories in height, and the inside measurement of the main building is 80x200 feet. The total cost of the building was $42,000. A spur switch, 600 feet in length runs from the Southern Pacific track at a juncture near the brewery, to the winery. This has been kept in good condition and is capable of bearing trains without repair. The work of overhauling the building and making it habitable has already commenced and will cost about will contain a handsomely pointed theatre. The Concord at its last week's meeting elected the following officers to serve the ensuing year: John C. Core president; R. Krastel, secretary; Joseph Backs, treasurer; Pete Syre, C. Meinecke, Mr. You directors; Theo Roberts, manager of tuning section; Mr. Lauderba manager of singing section; Pete Tiedeman, musical director.

Of the class of ninety members only five were present the remainder being at too great a distance to attend. Letters were read from many of the absent however, giving best wishes members of the class and expressing regret at their inability to present. Those in attendance were Mrs. Lloyd Messler, Merton Skinner, Mrs. Victor Mont, Leonard Evans and J. Lile Swope. Refreshments were served and a general good t was had. Mr. V. B.

The secretary was instructed to answer that as we have taken steps to develop water it seems desirable not to accept the propositions. It is said that Jay Gould is about to retire from business and enjoy himself unharrassed by dull care. The lowest estimate of his wealth is fifty millions, and we hold it to be quite impossible for a man worth fifty millions to enjoy himself. The care entailed by such wealth banishes the peaceful and contented state of mind so essential to perfect repose. A Cincinnati plumber is said to be the head man in a proposition to hold a world’s fair in that city in 1802. The cost will be $1,000,000. Mr. J. K. Tuffree is selling hay, grain, feed and flour at his store in Conrad’s brick building on Los Angeles street at very low prices. All goods are of first quality. The municipal election in Los Angeles resulted in the election of six republicans and two democratic councilmen. The republicans elected one member of the board of education, and the democrats elected two members. The issue of the election was high or low license, and the result was very definitely in favor of high licenses. The total vote was 3,563. There are 6,357 voters registered in the city. On Tuesday evening the Odd Fellows installed the following newly elected officers: Carl Pressel, noble grand; E. H. Adams, vice grand; C. W. Hedges, recording secretary; O. T. Cailor, treasurer; Frank Gates, financial secretary; Earl Steadman, past grand. District Deputy W. A. Goodwin of Fullerton acted as installing officer and was assisted by a team from Fullerton. Following installation a banquet was served. Planning to erect a two-story brick building, the Concordia singing society this week closed a deal with Mrs. Konig for the purchase of a lot 50x155 feet on South Los Angeles street adjoining the Adelheid bath house. The society pays $1800 for the lot and early in the new year will begin erection a $10,000 building. The ground floor will be used as a conservatory of music, a gymnasium and offices.

It is exactly what its name implies. The striking workers do not "walk out" or picket the plant on the outside. They simply quit work and sit down at their machines. And there they stay until conditions are adjusted. Incidentally, they get plenty of rest, and some good clean fun, too.

Forest Fire Losses For 1936 are Light The Cleyeland National forest has just completed the most successful fire season in its history. With 51 fires on the forest during the past season, only 86 acres were burned over. The season of 1935, with 54 fires and 199 acres burned over, was the nearest approach to the present record. When the supervisory work plan for the forest was made in 1912, the average annual burn for the previous fire years was 16,408 acres. The objective, set up under the fire control section of the plan, was to hold the annual burned area to .35% of the total area under protection. This would amount to 1949 acres. Even this objective has been beaten in the past two years. In addition to the 51 fires on the Cleveland forest, officers and suppression crews have aided on many state fires and on fires in other forests. 225 EAST CENTER STREET GREATER ANAHEIM JONES AND NOSLER FRUITS -- VEGETABLES Of Superior Quality MEDIUM RED PORTA RICAN YAMS 4 lbs. 10¢ THURSDAY - FRIDAY - SA TURD Quality Mdse.
