IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 Years Ago July 9, 1891 The Directors of the Anaheim Water company, at their meeting on Friday, had a warm and spiritited time of it. The thermometer was at a "no shade" elevation, and there were charges and countercharges without end. Mr. Heteebrink charged that water gates had been tampered with. Mr. Tuffree charged that the zanjero's management was inefficient, and Capt. Northam took occasion to notify the board of his august displeasure at their management of the aairs of the district He asked the board to resign as a body, and the board laid his communication on the table. Everybody asked for water which is scarce and getting scarcer. It was resolved that no water should be allowed to run in the ditches in town for six days, the entire stream to be turned nito the north Anaheim ditches. Secretary Garwood's salary was raised to $50 per month. The demands upon the company for water are greater than can be filled and nothing is plainer that that the community has outgrown the company's limited means of supply. Everyday the fact becomes plainer that the irrigation district should be put in working order, reservoirs constructed, ditches cemented and other necessary improvements made. Anaheim Lodge of Odd Fellows 25 Years Ago July 13, 1916 Orange county's five big sugar factories are in prime condition for the opening of the campaign of beet crushing and sugar making. The crop promises to be an average one, so far as the yield per acre is concerned. The acreage for some of the factories will be less than in previous years, with a consequent shortage in beets. Lands that were flooded during the rains of the early part of the year will not yield as heavily as heretofore, and in some sections of the flooded districts there will be no beets at all. The Anaheim factory and that of the Santa Ana co-operative will start operations about August 1. The Los Alamitos factory will start the season's campaign next Monday, it has been overhauled and put in condition for the four and a half months' of day and night work. Last year 90,000 tons of beets were handled at this factory and about the same number of tons will be handled this year. The Huntington Beach factory of the Holly Sugar company will open the season the first of August as will also the Santa Ana plant of the same company.
