IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago August, 1879 The excursion train which arrived in Anaheim at six o'clock on Monday night brought about one hundred and fifty persons to attend the Republican meeting. The audience was swelled by the townspeople and delegations from surrounding villages and there were probably six hundred people in attendance. George C. Perkins, the Republican candidate for governor, found many personal friends in Anaheim; men who had known him years ago in the northern counties. As he stood on the rostrum in the evening in the full glare of the Drummond light, his bluff, frank appearance and manner was noted and favorably commented on by both friends and foes alike. His address met with hearty approval by his audience. The other speakers were Messrs. Pacheco, Mansfield, Knight and Carillo, and at the conclusion of the speeches, adjournment was had to the dining room of the Planters' Hotel, where dancing was indulged in until midnight. Another Republican meeting, to be addressed by A. L. Hart, nominee for Attorney General and Mayor McArthur, will be held in Anaheim next Wednesday. A bear weighing 1200 pounds, was killed last Thursday morning at 3 o'clock by Col. Havel, manager of M. Phoenix of this city, laid in wait for bruin, and Mr. Hand's Winchester brought him down. When dressed the grizzly weighed 1200 pounds. Only 204 voters have as yet been registered by Mr. Rimpau. The people are very backward about coming forward and many voters will find that they cannot vote on election day. The Southern California Press Association met in the Gazette editor's rooms on Monday night. Present were Scipio Craig of the Cotton Semi-Tropic, J. C. Littlefield, T. B. Fanning, and Aaron Smith of the Los Angeles Journal, D. M. Berry and G. W. Gould of the Los Angeles Commercial, W. W. Creighton of the Express, Frank Coble, of the Santa Ana Times, Nap Donqvan of the Santa Ana Herald, L. T. Fisher of the Downey Outlook. The proceeding was opened by Brother Fisher, and business was proceeding swimmingly when Scipio Craig made the incautious statement that he invariably kept a keg of beer on tap in his sanctum. A motion was promptly made and carried to adjourn and meet in the Semi-Tropic office just as soon as it was possible to get there. Master Oscar Luedke has been trying his "prentice hand" in getting up a clock and has succeeded remarkably with taking some hours he drives some nails on his father's plug hat. As the strikes the full hours, the man sitting at the other end the bench administers a cation to a young urchin who laid over his knee in the fashioned way. The whole is ingenious and very credit to the young workman. From Mr. John McFadden, Santa Ana, we learn that steamer Newport has been rarily withdrawn in order to her up as a passenger steer.
