IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anshelm Gasette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago... Mr. Jim Boege came down from Santiago Canyon a few days ago bringing with him cheering news and rich samples of ore from the mine in which Messrs. Pellegrin, Darling, Gray and Boege are interested. For several months past a number of men have been at work running tunnels on the claim and a few days ago they struck a well-defined ledge of galena ore, which is quite rich. The country all around the mine has been taken up by miners who are elated over developments made by the Santiago Mining Co. Mr. Boege has given us a sample of the ore which can be seen at this office. The company intends to continue developing their mine and we hope to soon have cheering news to communicate. The law requiring saloons to be closed on election day was rigidly enforced in Los Angeles. Two arrests were made for non-compliance with the law. Arizona, which has of late been the Mecca of so many from this county, is not all that fancy painted. Nine out of every ten of the people who go to that territory, hoping to better their condition, find themselves disappointed. Appropos, a Los Angeles paper says: "From one of the Los Angeles colonies in Tucson, recently returned, we learn that our fellow-townmen have been in a rather 50 Years Ago... Partly cloudy and cool weather prevailed throughout Southern California during the past week, with frequent showers and thunderstorms during the fore part of the week. In the mountains and on the desert the rains were heavy and caused considerable damage to railroads, but very little to crops. Grapes are ripening rapidly and picking is progressing. The quality is excellent. Sugar beets are making fine growth and are above the average. Beans were damaged considerably by the hot weather of the previous week and the crop will be below average. Walnuts are maturing fast. A large crop of late potatoes is being planted. Oranges are doing well. Heavy thunderstorms occurred in the mountains and occasional light showers in the valleys. Considerable damage is reported in the Mill Creek section above Redlands. Bean cutting continues, some threshing being done. Plans for the new primary school building to be erected at the corner of Olive and Broadway have been adopted by the school trustees. The plans are those of T. A. Hassfurther and C. A. Smith, both of Los Angeles. Each submitted separate proposals and the trustees selected what appeared to them the best portions of each. The building as projected will be in the Mission style of architecture, with plaster or imitation wood. PLAN TICKET SALE Mrs. LeRay Quick, pr Women's club, attend per plate GOP fund-r Bay club. Principal sp diana, majority leader and a floor show fe round out the evening. Editor of Tradit Hemet News Co Homer King, newspaper lisher and editor of Hemet life-long Democrat, know Arizona, which has of late been the Mecca of so many from this county, is not all that fancy painted. Nine out of every ten of the people who go to that territory, hoping to better their condition, find themselves disappointed. Approx. a Los Angeles paper says: "From one of the Los Angeles colonies in Tucson, recently returned, we learn that our fellow-townsmen have been in a rather bad way out there—no work and no chance to get any. Our informant was very glad to return safely." Rev. J. M. Allis, pastor of the Larkin street church, San Francisco, and a former resident of Anaheim, preached a sermon last Sunday in reference to the Kallock-Die Young affair, taking for his subject, "To whom belongs Vengeance." Mrs. B. Dreyfus and family arrived from San Francisco on Tuesday and we are pleased to state they will make Anaheim their future home. Wine making has already begun at San Gabriel, and it is said that some of the growers have gone back to the revolting practice of "stambling out" the juice instead of using the grape press. Such a proceeding is altogether behind the age, and people will be loath to partake of wine which they think has been made in any such manner. Here in Anaheim the grape press is used exclusively. The Board of Town Trustees met in regular session on Thursday. In the matter of the Water Works, the Board declined to accept the same on account of the leakages. Another meeting will be held next week, by which time the contractor expects all leakage to have ceased. It will be seen by the apportionment of school moneys that Anaheim comes next to Los Angeles in the number of teachers employed. It is the only district in the county which gives employment to four teachers. The suit brought by a San Francisco firm against J. Benner-scheldt was decided in favor of the defendant in Los Angeles the plans for the new primary school building to be erected at the corner of Olive and Broadway have been adopted by the school trustees. The plans are those of T. A. Hass further and C. A. Smith, both of Los Angeles. Each submitted separate proposals and the trustees selected what appeared to them the best portions of each. The building as projected will be in the Mission style of architecture, with plaster or imitation adobe walls, and will be one story with basement. It is to have four class rooms with library, teachers rooms, cloak rooms, etc. It will be heated by a furnace and will be equipped with a ventilating system. The building will present an attractive appearance from every side. An important feature in view of the fact that it will be visible from two railroads. The Katella water company has started work on its wells on the Hunt ranch. P. H. Krick who has been putting down a well on his adjoining ranch, struck a good stream of water at eighty five feet. The company expects to get a good flow from its wells. Quite a considerable stream of water ran under the Olive bridge on Monday, the result of heavy downpours in the mountains. This is a sight rarely witnessed, as river water has not flowed down as far as the bridge at this time of the year in a decade. Old timers say the Arizona storms, coupled with those in the mountains of Southern California, point to a winter of heavy rainfall. The man who doesn't believe in signs says nothing, but hopes so. Frank Baum some days ago added a brand new gasoline stove to his kitchen. Mrs. Baum, although at first somewhat skeptical of the critter, found it worked to a charm, and declared it was the finest thing she ever saw. But a day or two ago it exploded, and only prompt action on her part saved the kitchen from being enveloped in a blaze. She smothered the fire by throwing a rug over it. Mrs. Baum immediately thereafter ordered out the critter and will henceforth get along with the old-fashioned wood stove. A picnic party consisting of Miss Adella Strodthoff, Miss Olga Zeus, Dr. and Mrs. Hatzfeld, Mr. Editor of Tradition Hemet News Co Homer King, newspaper lisher and editor of Hemet life-long Democrat, know good reason why California ocrats should vote to keep T. H. Kuchel, a Republican, in as their United States senate. King knows of what he spends not only has he been a Dealer all his life, but so was his er before him. The family piles an outstanding weekly mail per, the Hemet News, and always supports Democratic didates. But Homer King told a man of Riverside and San Bernardino county editors there are two sons why he decided to "the unpardonable sin" of voting a Republican candidate committee 2. The first reason he will for Kuchel, he said, is because Kuchel is a completely honest thoroughly capable of public vant." The other, he said, is thatator, Kuchel "on at least one casion was in charge of the tinies of the Democratic and we found him both and trustworthy." This latter actually hapte the editor explained, when I was both "acting majority Male" and "acting minority leader" the United States Senate. That during the 85-hour filibuster mid-August. Senator Price of Texas and Kuchel of Calif were acting leaders of the spective parties between 2 o'clock on one morning. I became sleepy, and asked if he would "look out for theseests of my party as we yours while I hit the sack." It will be seen by the apportionment of school moneys that Anaheim comes next to Los Angeles in the number of teachers employed. It is the only district in the county which gives employment to four teachers. The suit brought by a San Francisco firm against J. Bennerscheldt was decided in favor of the defendant in Los Angeles the other day. The peculiarity of the suit was that Bennerscheldt had for a couple of years been purchasing gasoline from the San Francisco firm. The bills for the same were promptly paid every month. Some time ago they presented a bill of over $200, which they claimed was due them for the reason that they have not during the preceding two years charged for all the gasoline furnished. They claimed that the tank which they had always shipped the gasoline in held several gallons more than they thought it did, and they brought in a bill for the extra number of gallons furnished during the years Mr. Bennerscheldt had dealt with them. The stage was robbed on Tuesday three miles from Nevada City and the robbers killed W. F. Cummins, a banker of Moore's Flat, who attempted resistance. Two hundred and fifty thousand ballots were printed at the Los Angeles printing office for last Wednesday's election. Fifteen thousand ballots were printed at the Gazette job office for use in this supervisorial district alone. At a balle in Los Angeles on Tuesday night, Louis Mendebles was shot by Billy Patterson. The wound is thought to be fatal. Patterson is in jail. A picnic party consisting of Miss Adella Strodthoff, Miss Olga Zeus, Dr. and Mrs. Hatzfeld, Mr. and Mrs. G. Sandilands, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Weisel, Miss Hettie Welsel, Miss Alice Robinson, Hugh Smith, Gus Strodthoff, Fritz Yungbluth and Ed Zeus went to the canyon in a tally-ho last evening and after enjoying a social hop at the county park returned to their homes late in the evening. Hans Weisel departed on Monday for Stanford to take up his studies in the university. Hans departure occasions many a sigh among the younger fair sex with whom he is deservedly popular. James Whalley and Miss Edith S. Ball, popular young people of the West End, were married at the Christian church on Sunday. Rev. Markel officiated. They will reside at West Anaheim. Fire consumed twenty-five tons of loose barley hay on Tuesday morning at the ranch of J. J. Swartzbaugh, two miles east and a half mile north of Garden Grove. A small shed was also lost and only prompt action by volunteer fire fighters saved a stack of thirty tons of baled hay. When the blaze was discovered, Mr. Swartzbaugh was away from home and his wife and children were on the opposite side of the ranch. The origin of the blaze is a mystery and incendiarism is strongly suspected. Graduates from Ordnance School INDIAN HEAD, Md. Ens. David B. Hanson, son of Mrs. O.

Editor of Traditionally Democratic Hemet News Comes out for Sen. Kuchel Anaheim Gardens Unit No. 2 on Red Surpasses First Unit in Popularity According to George J. Davies, exclusive sales agent for Hahn-St. John development in Anaheim, Unit No. 2 of Anaheim Gardens on Romneya Drive just east of East street, which was opened to the public only a short time ago, has met with public approval far beyond expectation.

Kuchel Homer King, newspaper publisher and editor of Hemet and a life-long Democrat, knows two good reasons why California Democrats should vote to keep Thomas L. Kuchel, a Republican, in office as their United States senator. King knows of what he speaks—not only has he been a Democrat all his life, but so was his father before him. The family publish an outstanding weekly newspaper, the Hemet News, and nearly always supports Democratic candidates. But Homer King told a meeting of Riverside and San Bernardino county editors there are two reasons why he decided to "commit one unpardonable sin" of voting for Republican candidate come November 2. The first reason he will vote for Kuchel, he said, is because "Tom Kuchel is a completely honest and morally capable of public servant." The other, he said, is that Senator Kuchel "on at least one occasion was in charge of the desnies of the Democratic party, and we found him both reliable and trustworthy." This latter actually happened, the editor explained, when Kuchel was both "acting majority leader" and "acting minority leader" of the United States Senate. This was during the 85-hour fillbuster in mid-August. Senator Price Daniel Texas and Kuchel of California were acting leaders of their respective parties between 2 and 4 clock on one morning. Daniels became sleepy, and asked Kuchel he would "look out for the interests of my party as well as yours while I hit the sack." Kuchel did. He and Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon, who was in the middle of a 13-hour speech, remained the only Senators in the Senate chamber. And it was at this time, King said, that the Californian showed himself as an honest public servant.
