Goldthwaite, Reiser and Boege were appointed a committee to confer with the Water Company in regard to ditches within the city limits.

The license of Fred Crist having been unlawfully collected the same was ordered refunded. F. A. Korn, president of the Anaheim Water company appeared before the board in response to a summons to show cause why the water company's ditches, etc., should not be taxed. It was agreed to tax the same at a valuation of $1000. Several bills were audited an dthe Board adjourned. The body of Henry Boege, who committed suicide some time Sunday night at San Juan Hot Springs by shooting himself while his son lay sleeping near him, arrived in town on the California Central train at 10 o'clock on Monday evening.

Hauck, formerly of Claremont has been elected principal of the school by the board of trustees. Treasurer Shows Efficient Results County Treasurer Terry E. Stephenson, in an informative statement, has presented some figures concerning the business achievements of his office that are of interest. He shows that while he expects to make his office earn 20 per cent more during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1939, than was earned in the past fiscal year, the actual cost f operating his office will show a ten per cent reduction. The federal law makes it impossible for national banks to pay interest on public money in checking accounts. For that reason it is Stephenson's business policy to crowd as much of the county's money as possible into inactive interest-bearing accounts. As a result of watchful adherence to that policy, in the past year, the county treasurer earned $22,500 for the county, as against $15,000 that had been estimated by the auditor and supervisors as the amount he would likely earn that year. The budget estimate in the way of interest earnings for the present year is for $25,000. Stephenson expects to make earnings total $27,500. The county statistical report shows the cost of running his office last year to have been $11,500. For the present fiscal year, Stephenson says he will operate the office at $1,000 less than that. Stephenson is a candidate for return to the office he has held since November, 1936.

Anaheim’s Candidate For Superior Judge Of the six candidates for Judge of Superior Court, all but one live in Santa Ana. One, Judge H. G. Ames, is a resident of Anaheim. Judge Ames has made his home in Anaheim 28 years. He has financially and otherwise supported Anaheim’s interests, public and private. Other factors being equal, Anaheim should support Judge Ames’ candidacy for re-election. Aside from that, Anaheim can conscientiously support Judge Ames’ candidacy, because he has demonstrated complete fitness for his office, has administered it efficiently and economically, and is the most experienced candidate for his office before the voters. Every reason recommends a vote for Judge H. G. Ames CANDIDATE FOR OFFICE NO. 1.
