Gazette Sees Growth Of City From Small Village
Oldest Paper in Orange County Founded October 29, 1870 by G. W. Barter; Late Henry Kuchel Buys Plant in 1887
The Anaheim Gazette has watched and aided in the growth of this city from the time it was little more than a colony of hardy German pioneers who came here to establish vineyards and to produce wine to the present. It has the distinction of being the oldest business establishment in the city of Anaheim. The Gazette is also the oldest newspaper in Orange county and the second oldest newspaper in Southern California.
Among its other distinctions is the fact that the Gazette has been owned by one family for the past 50 years and was edited and published by one man—the late Henry Kuchel—
The Anaheim Gazette has watched and aided in the growth of this city from the time it was little more than a colony of hardy German pioneers who came here to establish vineyards and to produce wine to the present. It has the distinction of being the oldest business establishment in the city of Anaheim. The Gazette is also the oldest newspaper in Orange county and the second oldest newspaper in Southern California.
Among its other distinctions is the fact that the Gazette has been owned by one family for the past 50 years and was edited and published by one man—the late Henry Kuchel—for a period of 48 years. Mr. Kuchel's immediate predecessor in the ownership of the Gazette was his brother-in-law, Richard Melrose, who had edited and published the paper for about 14 years before selling to Mr. Kuchel.
The first edition of the Gazette was issued by its founder, George Washington Bartar, from a plant located in a small building on Chartres street at the corner of Los Angeles street. It made its debut on October 29, 1870.
Because the original plant was not easily accessible to the public Bartar moved the office to the Metz building in the 100 block on East Center street which later became the location of the Mullinis building. The building which the office occupied is still standing, having been moved to East Chartres street, and is being used as a Mexican rooming house. It is known as "Buzzard's Roost."
Next to Town Hall
The next location of the Gazette was in a building just north of the old Town Hall on South Los Angeles street. The Town Hall was later known as Miller's Hall. The building was unsafe and the office was moved to another location on North Los Angeles street, near the corner of Chartres street, in a building which was owned by Mrs. Conrad C. Kuchel, mother of Henry Kuchel and wife of one of the original colonists.
This structure was destroyed by fire in 1870 in a blaze that started in an adjoining building and consumed all three structures. Files were saved, however, but the Gazette missed two publication dates. Never before or since has the Gazette missed an issue.
Melrose, who owned the Gazette at that time, left immediately for San Francisco where he purchased a complete supply of new equipment which was installed in a brick building also located on North Los Angeles street.
Within a comparatively short time the publisher moved into a new building which he had erected.

Within a comparatively short time the publisher moved into a new building which he had erected on East Center street. At about this time Melrose became postmaster of Anaheim as well as publisher of the Gazette. The postoffice was in the front of the building and the newspaper plant in the rear. It was while the Gazette was in this location that Mr. Kuchel purchased the paper. Later Joseph Helmsen purchased the building from Melrose and it became known as the Helmsen building.
Need More Space
Growth of the Gazette soon required that larger headquarters be obtained. To meet this need the office and plant was moved to Reiser's opera house which was located at the corner of Center and Olive streets. The opera house occupied the upper story and the Gazette the lower floor. Later the opera house was torn down and and the newspaper moved into Bushard building in the 300 block on East Center street.
The Gazette remained in the Bushard building for several years until it was moved into the office on North Emily street in the Masonic building. About two and a half years ago still larger quarters were needed and the Gazette was moved to its present location at 259 E. Center street.
Sells After Year
George W. Barter, the founder of the Anaheim Gazette, operated
Dr. Heyermann was the grandfather of the late Joseph M. Backs, county clerk who passed away last week. He was also a notary public, as well as a doctor.
Gardiner, who later purchased the Gazette, was an attorney-at-law.
Real estate agents were represented in the first issue by H. D. Polhemus, whose son bears his name and still resides here. On November 2, 1870 the real estate man was married to Miss Emma M. Hanna of this city.
Planters Hotel
Advertising space was also purchased by the famous Planters hotel, which was owned and operated at that time by John Fischer. Fischer was the father of Anna Fischer, first American girl born in Anaheim.
Several general merchandise stores were advertised, including the businesses owned by Richard Heimann and Oscar George, Philip Davis and Gus Davis and W. Kalisher and company. Langenberger, Blockman and company advertised its lumber business at Anaheim Landing. Langenberger was the first merchant of Anaheim.
O. B. Peck and company, contractors and builders, also inserted an advertisement. Affiliated with the company was P. C. McKinney.
R. Luedke, one of the original colonists, conducted a jewelry store and watch making business and had an advertisement in the first Gazette. He was followed in business here by his son.

NO. I.
HENINISCKYCE.
The following time is when the light of the evening,
I must sit in the dark and look at the street.
And a wreath out of memory wears,
For our Noddle's joy goes before.
Then a thought of a horse so loudness,
I have seen, but that no more,
Shell mingling lonely past,
With the halfday days of pence.
Bristol I is this all of this meeting!
Just a touch of the joy we greet,
Just a touch of the joy we greet,
And forever be lost to time!
Shell it all go down in the river
Or addison, dark and deep;
Shell it is hide, like the rainbow's story.
That, too, often in life's long journey
He has seen our dearest departed,
And the grace of our dear friend, departed,
And the last-minute milestone of my heart.
To big lines that marrowed on severity,
That echoed we're dream track,
My hearts in the backmommy monthly
Gone serially, laughingly back.
Brother's eyes are grief or in ashness,
And they glisten on my heart, my sight,
And they gleam on my heart, my sight.
To big lines that marrowed on severity,
That echoed we're dream track,
My hearts in the backmommy monthly
Gone serially, laughingly back.

A GOOD PAPER HANDLE.
A correspondent of the Louisville Courier Journal tells of a game of poker which will "do for high."
A party of six or seven including the collector began a small game of poker in the baggage car at ten cents ante with a limit of twenty chips (an ear of corn supplied the spuddler in this instance) and I put in the brandy as my share, being naturally on allowance, having borrowed all that Haderman and Henderson had about fifteen minutes, they had face me out! But a "evengence was mine." A puff of wind came tearing worse than a steam engine through the woods, scattering the corn, dispersing the cards, revealing the old area and kings stock follow sheaves and straw bags and carry heads of a couple of lucky (or unlucky) gamblers. The conductor very politely stopped the train and sent a man back half a mile or so to look after the mischiefs, but they were as disordered as a load of hay spect, and together unwearable with exhaled air. We were soon demoralized the party, where they were still present after a couple away from home.
SWAM AWAY FROM A HUSBAND.
The following amusing story is copied from the Yreka Journal, of the "Zile" list.
A ruttic damselflor of some fifteen suns were wooded by young man down on Hat Creek in Pitt River valley, and the parents were greatly in favor of his attention to their daughter. The match seemed to have been made by his old folks, the girl consented, and his happy bridegroom got a license from Shesta. The day arrived, the magistrate and all the invited guests were present and everything appeared to be on mercury until about a couple hours before the ceremony was to take place. The young lady, seeing no other chance to avoid the bymalen knight broke and ran. On reaching Hat Creek she tied her clothes in a bundle, fanciered there on her breast, dressed up stream and went very deep, swiftstream, a hair-dredged yardin width, and swam that same manner. Her hands-been (or parent) and friends, gave close but unable to catch her. A party, however went up to the ferry, a few miles where they were still present after a couple away from home.
A little before midnight on Thursday (September 21h) while I was rolling in my bank—containing with sleep and snickering, and moralizing on those who choose "the sea" for a profession, I was roasted—and skinned instantly by the watch on deck suddenly in the Southland Head is firing, and sending up rockets. The mate sprang from his bunk and was on the cabin floor before the sentence was well finished. I followed suit, and pulled on coat, neither garments, and grounded. There was no need for clothing, for the night was bitterly cold. On gaining the deck we found the two men on duty at work—the one loading a rocket's pit is stuck. A few seconds took them out of sight and, as far as the Gall lightship was concerned, the crew was excepted. No wonder. It not an easy matter to alp in a gale of wind, with freezing spray, and sometimes green sweeping over one. They were, doubtless, awake and listening; but as far as vision went, that beat lights had no chance of bearing them until the next visit of their tender unit there was obliged to turn in once more, at 3 A.M. Next forementioned we saw the wreck, up high up the Goodwin Sands, that of the good ship Gull of Maryville.
The manufacture of Castor oil has been to a very considerable business at Maryville. The Appeal, given the following description of the Castor oil mill of Dr. McDaniel, a well known gentleman of that city.
We recently visited the Castor oil manufacturer of Daniel, common northwest of the Pacific Coast Railroad Company's old depot. Being a novice in the preparation and pressing of the Castor bean, we were surprised at the simplicity of the oil used in the manufacture. The beans are with the manufacture of heat for about an hour or so in a furnace. This soften them and bring them to that peculiar state required in expedition pressing. They are then taken out and put into the same amount of water, the latter having cleaned both our signals, but four and a half miles of distance and a fresh gale neutralized their influence. The look-out did not see them. In less than five minutes the guns and warewere fired again. Still no answering signal came from Hammage. Jashe obeyed, and I sought shelter under the lee of the weather bulwarks for the wind appearance—a rocket from Hammage Pier.
That's all right sir, our work is done," said the mate, as he went below, "and we have been to compose pennknives and needles. Our third gun thundered forth and shook the lightship from storm to storm; but the rocket struck the gangling and cut its bright up, it hit scores cut its bright up across the sky when we observed the answer signal—a rocket from Hammage Pier.
The day arrived, the trade and all the invited guests were present, and everything appeared to go on merriely until about a couple before the ceremony took place without any trouble or avoidance by the byman knight broke and ran. On reaching Hastings crested she tied her clothes in a bundle, fastened them on her head, and swam away through the stream. She then proceeded to Pilliver, a very deep, swift stream, dredged yard walls, and dried yard walls without any trouble or avoidance by the byman knight broke and ran.

EDITORIALS FROM THE
ANAHEIM GAZETTE, OCTOBER 29, 1870
THE GAZETTE IS BORN
There is the Anaheim Gazette. After various delays and incidents to establishing a business, our paper goes the light of day in tolerable good order.
Here we give a few scraps of many things published about any other things privately said have reached our private substance, the latter amount to but this: Our jealousances say we will not succeed; that the resources of the Anaheim and the southern portion of the county are not to support a newspaper. Our friends (thank heaven six), say never was there so bright a prospect, the time and you, Barter, have occupied the field.
With these expressions the "wish" is parent to the "opinion" are mere rattling, half digested words. We are much to side with the opinion of our friends. However, as the prophesy have passed some thousands of years, and as the all unknown even for one short hour, time alone must be the success of the Gazette. Only grant that we know our own affairs and of the newspaper business, than those adverse opinions upon us, and who for the most part used their obscure lives, pitchfork in hand within the of some congenial barnyard and we are satisfied.
OUR COURSE
It is natural that the people should inquire what attitude politically or otherwise, a newspaper is to assume, whenever one is established among them. To meet then this inquiry, we volunteer a statement of the Policy of the Gazette, so far as we now know.
For the present or until some strong political feeling in the law may oblige us to treat of politics, we propose to ignore them altogether. We have stated in our Prospectus that we were to "Independent," and to be Independent, means, simply to sustain the best men and measures for the common good, so far as the same appears to the editor and proprietor of a newspaper.
We, fortunately, engage in publishing this newspaper by our reason and will, untrammeled by any, and compelled in no way to support and faction or institution; and, as we value freedom and independence, we will try to sustain this attitude.
If there is one trait in the human mind, that can be called despicable, and which brands its possessor as a first class scoundrel, it is that one which actuates the giving forth of personal vituperation, and assailing the character of another, through the medium of the Press. We loath and despise it. We were raised a different school of writers; and had we not been, our instinct would naturally recoil from such a course. Yet, should we not and then see proper to administer a wholesome rebuke or a monition to certain insolent curs, that illwinds have occasional brought us into unwilling contact with throughout this state, our readers will bear in mind that we know whereof we speak, that the Gazette is our own newspaper and that we reserve the especial privilege from the start.
Late Publisher Reviews
Gazette's Achievements
Article Dictated by Henry Kuchel Shortly Before his Death Reprinted because of Historical Value to City
Shortly before he passed away a little more than two years ago, the late Henry Kuchel, for 50 years publisher of the Gazette, dictated the following article in which he recalls some of the incidents in the life of the Gazette. It is reprinted in this issue because of its historic value to Anaheim.—Editor's note.

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.

BY HENRY KUCHEL
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. 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 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 Patient" 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 first 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 stormy weather.
Patent Attacked
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.
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 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.
Helped to Form County
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 conferred with our people. They agreed upon a bill to be submitted to the legislature providing the northern boundary line be placed at New River. But a day or two before the legislature met the bill was submitted providing that the northern boundary line should be at Coyote Creek. When the old timers here learned of this there was a snort of defiance. They would not agree to it, and neither would a single man in this town.
Many men who had favored it with the northern boundary placed at New River now came out against it with the boundary placed at Coyote Creek. This bill was prepared by Victor Montgomery. It provided for a two thirds majority at an election and again Wm. McFadden came in saying that that ought to be fair enough for anyone. He said there was quite a favorable sentiment in the Placencia and Fullerton districts as well as in Garden Grove and Westminster. He found there was also quite an element supporting the bill in this city. A vote came on and the county was organized
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 some national name. This was done and it has been known as the Los Alamitos sugar factory although privately owned by Clark. Of course, no sugar is being manufactured there now, nor has been for some years past. Sometimes 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 placed at Coyote Creek. This bill was prepared by Victor Montgomery. It provided for a two thirds majority at an election and again Wm. McFadden came in saying that that ought to be fair enough for anyone. He said there was quite a favorable sentiment in the Placentia and Fullerton districts as well as in Garden Grove and Westminster. He found there was also quite an element supporting the bill in this city. A vote came on and the county was organized by a large majority. Orange was the other town after the county seat. While Anaheim would have liked to have had the county seat, the boys recognized that we were not heavy enough for it and the thing was dropped. Later on when it was proposed to issue bonds for the erection of the court house there was opposition, but the bonds carried by a two-thirds majority all over the county and proved to be a very good investment. The building is the best for the money in this part of the state. The books, deeds, vouchers and all county papers representing millions of dollars of property had been stored in a flimsy building on East Fourth street where the county officials also held their meetings.
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.
