Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, California. Phone 2206-2207.

Subscription Per Year, $2.00; 2 Years, $3.50; 6 Months, $1.25 JIM FARQUHAR FOR SENATOR On Thursday, June 27, Governor Earl Warren issued a proclamation calling for a special election in the 35th Senatorial District to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Senator Thomas H. Kuchel who had accepted the governor's appointment to the office of State Controller. The special election to fill the unexpired term of two years will be held in conjunction with the general election November 5, and covers all of Orange county. Senator Kuchel, during his tenure in office, not only won the high regard of his constituents as a legislator, but the affectionate esteem of his fellow legislators. His recent victory in the primaries, returning him to the post of state controller, was a tribute to his ability and a victory for good government. Jim Farquhar is a candidate forumns such as "At the Sign of the Seven Seers" and "The Hell Box." His experience as a newspaperman adds up to more than 30 years! When a man has spent 30 years in the editorial department of the newspaper business, his record is pretty much of an open book. What he thinks and what he says have been put in type many times so that all may know his opinions on public and political matters. This campaign must provide a timely sounding board for the free and open discussion by the people of the many issues that are vital to the voters of the nation, the state and to Orange county. "To the voters I leave the necessary analysis of my qualifications for the office of state senator. But I place the personal regard of my friends above their political support and will devote more attention to preserving the first than promoting the second." Senator Kuchel, during his tenure in office, not only won the high regard of his constituents as a legislator, but the affectionate esteem of his fellow legislators. His recent victory in the primaries, returning him to the post of state controller, was a tribute to his ability and a victory for good government. Jim Farquhar is a candidate for the vacant post. Many of you already know him best as the publisher of the Huntington Beach News, a weekly newspaper guided by Jim for the past 19 years. What you may not know, is that he established the first movie directory ever published by any daily paper west of New York. He was classified advertising manager of the Chicago Herald and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. He was co-founder with Artist Grant Wood of the "Garlic Club" of artists, writers and musicians. He purchased a half interest in an Iowa weekly and added a paper a year until seven papers were acquired, including the Cedar Rapids Republican and the Iowa City Republican, under the trade name of "The Farquhar Publications." Later Jim founded newspaper collar campaigns must provide a timely sounding board for the free and open discussion by the people of the many issues that are vital to the voters of the nation, the state and to Orange county. "To the voters I leave the necessary analysis of my qualifications for the office of state senator. But I place the personal regard of my friends above their political support and will devote more attention to preserving the first than promoting the second." That statement was made by Jim the other day and he wants it on black and white. "I am controlled by no group or clique," he said, "Farquhar stands for free enterprise, first, last and always. My platform stands for no compromise with communism; arbitration of strikes; neither organized labor or organized capital, but Mr. and Mrs. U. S. Citizen caught in the middle between the two. 'We are the government, you and I'; fewer laws and less dependency upon legislation which promises so much and gives so little; preservation of a free press, freedom's most coherent spokesman and most vital link in today's world-wide struggle to maintain the rights of the individual against absolute control by the state; the continued development largely overlooked. Many sands of dwellings have been built and occupied. Every day number is being added to there aren't as many as they would like but the number stantial just the same. In their anxiety to read 1946 goal, government authorities have been cuttier into the commercial program. We can all that non-essential structures should not be now, but if commercial cation is virtually paralyzed bound to have a damage on our national economy. While the present housing agency requires the channel the greater part of available materials into home building sonable portion of them shall allowed to flow into the coalition of business structure needed in many communities. Community development be kept in some fair balance. New dwellings are very important but some social construction is also essential to community progress. A new premium motor tirely synthetic, is derive natural gas; it is an outgrowth special oil developed... Summer Left You LIMP?? Then you'll be glad for a refreshing touch of autumn.

W. Champlin, it was ordered that a sum not exceeding $100, be appropriated for the purchase of 24 buckets and four ladders for the use of the Anaheim fire department and President Zeyn was appointed a committee to confer with the fire company relative to the purchase. On Thursday night last at their camp on Center street, one block east of Los Angeles street, the Indians had a grand celebration of some diabolical anniversary, to the apparent intense gratification of themselves and the huge disgust of all white people within sound of their unearthly howlings. They went through a variety of wild and incomprehensible motions, accompanied by noises resembling nothing more than the cackling of geese and the braying of donkeys. Lo, the poor Indian! He has fallen very low, indeed. A great fire raged in the mountains southeast of Anaheim on Saturday and Sunday last. It furnished a fine pyrotechnic display, showing a vast column of smoke by day and a brilliant display of flames by night, resembling an eruption of Stromboli, as represented in the pictures. George B. Barter Esq., proprietor of the Gazette, has just consummated the purchase of the Los Angeles Daily and Weekly Star newspaper and job office. The first number under the new administration will be issued on Monday October 2nd. By late notice we see that $32.50 is to be hereafter charged for rough and $45 for dressed lumber at the latter place. Our dealers charge only $28 for rough lumber at the Landing and hauling can be had for $3. The San Bernardino Guardian favors the construction of a railroad by way of Anaheim to that place from Los Angeles. It is probable that a railroad will be built within two years from San Diego to San Bernardino unless one from Los Angeles, Wilmington and Anaheim gets the start of it. It would be of great value to all of the three latter points to have a road connecting San Bernardino and the vast country beyond it to our own local seaports. Now is the time for us to do something in this matter, and we can help to forward the enterprise and meet our friends halfway in the work that we need as much as they. Anaheim needs a railroad. The following deeds have been filed: S. J. Davis to S. Goldstein, property in Anaheim known as the Anaheim Brewery, for $750. Neal McSwain to Daniel Gridley, 523 acres of land in the Coyotes Rancho for $7323. The will of Don Abel Stearns has been admitted to probate, and letters testamentary ordered issued.

Community development should be kept in some fair degree of balance. New dwellings are highly important but some commercial construction is also essential to community progress. A new premium motor oil, entirely synthetic, is derived from natural gas; it is an outgrowth of special oil developed for air-conditioning.

"And they have grown so audacious, too, that one would swear they had got a 'right of way' not only through our yards and barns, but through our bed-rooms. One of the varmints got up on his hind legs the other night and looked in through the window at an unprotected female just as she was in the act of disrobing. A general hunt should be organized, and as another preventative of the nuisance the tules should be burned down so as to do away with their hiding places."
