One day last week there was shipped from Los Angeles the enormous quantity of 210 carloads of canned goods and dried fruit. These cars carried probably more than 2,500 tons and the value would reach to a million of dollars. For example, a carload of dried peaches weighing 15 tons or 30,000 pounds, would be worth, as prices go, $6,000. There is a great deal of money coming into this state.

At the first meeting of the board of supervisors in September, bids will be asked for paving the Santa Ana canyon road from Olive to Peralta, a distance of slightly over six miles. It is planned to have this section paved before the rain season sets in. The upper part of the canyon is in better shape and will not be paved until Riverside county begins operations on the other side of the line. It is not known when this will be, as there is said to be a possibility that Scully, whose land was condemned for right of way, will appeal to the supreme court and thus hold up the work.
Work on the Hotel Valencia has progressed to such an extent that Mr. Zeigler planted the corner stone Monday. A copy of the Gazette containing a picture of the building, and other documents, were deposited in a cavity in the stone. Work will be pushed rapidly on the building.
Three hundred members of Santa Ana Lodge, B. P. O. E., enjoyed the annual barbecue at Forster Brothers' ranch, San Juan Capistrano, Sunday.

Forster Brothers have made this barbecue an annual event. Beeves, sheep and cattle have made this barbecue an annual event.
W. Kee Maxwell Supports Kuche
Former Fullerton Publisher Endorses Candidacy of Anaheim Legislator
By W. KEE MAXWELL
Those states and districts which enjoy strongest representation in legislative bodies and which contribute most to good government are the ones which retain or promote able and conscientious representatives. In no field of deavor do experience and senior count more than in that of legislation; look over the roster state and national legislatures and invariably it will be found that the influential representatives those who have been long retained in office or promoted to high office by their constituents.
Thomas Kuche, by his capable service in the California assembly has demonstrated his fitness for promotion to the senate. His experience he has gained and contacts he has made in the low house and with state government departments generally prove an asset in the senate where could not possibly accrue to newcomer to the legislative scene "Learning the ropes" at Sacramento is not the task of a days or a few weeks—and applies to essential knowledge of the right things to do as well as wrong things to avoid. Anaheim county held high prestige in state capital for many years because her citizens were enough to keep a good man in senate, instead of making periodical changes in their representation in the upper house.
Kuche's promotion to the senate will be in line with this point.
Carl Pamperl has renounced his allegiance to the Kaiser of Germany and become a citizen of the United States. He was admitted to citizenship in the superior court at Santa Ana on Monday.

Carp are unusually plentiful at the mouth of New River, three miles north of Anaheim Landing.

The fishing is reckoned great sport by our local disciples of Izaak Walton.
Prof. McKinney, who will teach the Spadra school the coming term, and who is camping at the Landing, has the record of being the champion pole-and-line fisherman of the season. In six trips to New River he landed 71 pounds of carp.
Prof. Frantz has purchased a trotting horse for $40, which he thinks can be made to go a mile in something like two minutes. He was offered $50 for the beast last week, but refused to sell him.
Fred Miller has sold his Home restaurant to J. S. Conn, and has taken up his residence in Dr. Bullard's cottage, near the Hotel Del Campo.
Richard Egan of San Juan Capistrano is the newly appointed Orange County member of the Democratic State Central committee.
Theo. Staley of Placentia has our thanks for three superb bunches prun which abundantly adaptability of his soil suit. Prunes are high price articles in the market.

is not the task of a few or a few weeks—and this is to essential knowledge of eight things to do as well as strong things to avoid. Orange held high prestige in the capital for many years before her citizens were wise to keep a good man in the place, instead of making periodi-changes in their representation in the upper house. Mr. Kuchel's promotion to the senate be in line with this policy will represent only an extension of his past and present sensibilities.
The outstanding problems of state Mr. Kuchel's official record reflects the sound judgment of constituents. With the state constantly mounting, in face of vastly increased revenue (the figure is now quoted at 100,000) he has battled vigor to keep expenditures within bounds. He has recognized urgency of the relief problem, full sympathy for those in need of aid; but he has insisted on the best way to obtain justice whose requiring state assistance reduce the extravagant over-that has eaten up funds should have gone to the living and to do away with criticism and discrimination by enlisting politics from relief administration. His support was due to measures which already reduced relief administration head from 32 per cent to 16 percent, with the result that formerly wasted or handed to parasitic jobholders in the administration set-up is now able for those entitled to receive it.
