PHIL STANTON PASSES The history of Orange county and her development abounds with the names of pioneers whose civic pride impelled them, undaunted, to develop and vision what this garden spot would ultimately become. This week, his many friends and fellow pioneers paid their last respects to Philip A. Stanton, who, during most of his lifetime, was associated with the progress of our county and whose earthly goods went unstintingly into this field. At least three of our communities owe their creation to "Phil" Stanton. And in the last third of mother at the piano, and played "Slumber on, My Little Gipsy Sweetheart." There was Ralph Moore's banking partner, "Tama Jim" Wilson, America's first secretary of agriculture, whose twinkling little eyes peered out of a head, containing more common sense about the rich soil of the great middle border than that of all, the strange parade of political appointees who have followed him in the post. And finally, there was Elmer E. Taylor, who published the Traer Star-Clipper in a town of less than 2000 population, and did so good a job of it for half a century that his newspaper earned the sobriquet of the best country. IN THE DAY 50 Years Ago September 19, 1895 Orange county is now fourteenth in the order of population among the seven southern counties in the state, having passed Barbara and Riverside in number of its inhabitants in the last census. The population of the county is 20,743, acreage of 1,569 during the Los Angeles has 147,254, San Diego has 35,054, San Bernardino 26,355, Santa Barbara 20,335, Erisde 18,069, Ventura 15,440 total for the seven counties 283,256. The gain among counties since 1870 has been 224, or more than 10,000 acre. The increase in Los Angeles Orange counties alone is a short of 40 per cent of the increase throughout the state. Our friend Gillison was in with a complaint about the condition of West Broadway low Mr. Fay's residence, and ning to Cheeseman's store, has lately been all but in able. Before leaving town cured a promise from the fathers to have the same re immediately, and returned way rejoicing. The opening party given Del Campo by Mrs. Hack was ably assisted by Mrs. Rogers, on Tuesday evening quite largely attended and admirably to usher in the season. Thirty couples present and tripped the fantastic until a late hour. This week, his many friends and fellow pioneers paid their last respects to Philip A. Stanton, who, during most of his lifetime, was associated with the progress of our county and whose earthly goods went unstintingly into this field. At least three of our communities owe their creation to "Phil" Stanton. And in the last third of a century, he figured prominently in the planning of our county roads and highways, the development of our ocean frontage, and maintenance of good government here in the state and in the country as a whole. As speaker of the California legislature, as national committee man from California to the Republican party, as state highway commissioner, as friend and confidant of many men in public life, high and low alike, his was a great influence in government, and it was ever turned to good. And with it all his friends will remember him as a loyal friend—for that he was. Stanton was not afraid to take a position and to fight for what he thought right. He was an advocate for those principles and those men in whom he believed. Beyond that, he was a loyal supporter of our county. We will miss him. And the name of Phil Stanton ever shall be enshrined in our hearts. Colony Quips Continued from Page 1 thur W. McBride, left this life last week, we lost something sane and sturdy in human relationships. If you would know a man, you must know his forebears and the early surroundings in which he matured. The Scotch Presbyterians who peopled the little town of Traer, Iowa, where Art McBride was born 61 years ago, were sometimes dour, but they were also canny and their moral code did not bend. There was Ralph Moore, the president of the First National bank, who lived in the big red brick house on the hill and swore grandly as he paced the floor of an evening, while his five children gathered with their musical instruments about their artistic culture, whose twinkling little eyes peered out of a head, containing more common sense about the rich soil of the great middle border than that of all, the strange parade of political appointees who have followed him in the post. And finally, there was Elmer E. Taylor, who published the Traer Star-Clipper in a town of less than 2000 population, and did so good a job of it for half a century that his newspaper earned the sobriquet of the best country weekly in America. Art McBride's widowed mother was a teacher in the Traer public schools. Stern but just, she incultured into her only son, lessons of thrift and right living from which he never deviated. A graduate of Grinnell college he began his career as a reporter for the Sioux City Journal. At Paulina, Iowa Falls, Guthrie Center, Panora and other Iowa towns, he followed the career of a country newspaperman, finally in 1928 becoming the partner of Lee Hopper in the publication of the La Habra Star, an association which continued until his death. His passing leaves a definite void beyond the confines of his family and the immediate community he so ably served. A mind which thought clearly on matters of public welfare never hesitated to speak out when injustice reared its head. To sa ythat a man despises hypocrisy is common. But when Art McBride raised his voice to do the job, it shriveled into nothingness like the burned out crisp of a cotton thread. In an age when the high priests of politics turned their backs on every law of God and man to wrest from the people and preserve for themselves, a dynasty of power foreign to every dictate of human liberty, the tongue and the pen of Art McBride cried out unerringly and unceasingly. No man better knows the limitations of his efforts than that one who for long years chronicles in print the opinions, the joys and the sorrows of a small community. But wherever throughout the land there labors a small town editor, let him raise his head—a little higher today and say with this one—THERE WALKED A MAN. The opening party given Del Campo by Mrs. Hack was ably assisted by Mrs. Rogers, on Tuesday evening quite largely attended and admirably to usher in the season. Thirty couples present and tripped the fantastic until a late hour. The evening light refreshed were served. Miss Margaret Higgins has promoted from her place at S.
