Sept. 3—1881 The grape buyers of the county have agreed to pay $20 per ton for grapes during the coming vintage. The price will be paid for all varieties except muscats—a variety which wine-makers do not care to buy. Seventeen cotton-tails, the same number of (we nearly said quail) road runners and a rattle-snake comprised the game bagged by Messrs. Leonard and Ferguson during a two hours hunt the other morning. The fact was very convincingly demonstrated at the recent pigeon shooting match at the Landing that Anaheim can "get away with the pot" in that sport. The highest scores were made by Messrs. F. J. J. Schmidt and E. Dunham, both doing some remarkably fine shooting. The Republican County committee has appointed Hon. R. M. Widney of Los Angeles and A. B. Clark of Orange delegates to the state convention which meets in Los Angeles on the 8th. The Democratic County convention has appointed as delegates Messrs. C. E.

Putney last week finished sinking three artesian wells for Mr. Jotham Bixby on the Cerritos Rancho, to supply the American Colony with water. One well is 164 feet deep and flows a nine-inch column of water over the top of a seven-inch pipe. The second is 96 feet deep and flows four inches over a sever-inch pipe, and the third also flows a heavy stream. Water from the three wells combined makes a large creek which flows into the ocean. Rev. Mr. Robinson will preach in the Presbyterian church tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. Subject of the discourse—"The Revised Testament." 50 Years Ago...

"you're so right. We always go S.P." Southern Pacific THE BEST OF RIDES— FOR FOLKS OR FREIGHT (POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT) Congressman James B. Utt, of Santa Ana, admires the status of Thomas Starr King in the Capitol in Washington. Congressman Utt Discusses Capitol Statues "California has honored two men by having statues of them placed in the Capitol in Washington," explained Congressman James B. Utt of Santa Ana. The picture above shows the statue of Thomas Starr King, a Unitarian-Minister of San Francisco. Upon his death, the California legislature resolved that he was "the man whose matchless oratory saved California for the Union." Congressman UTT, who represents Orange and a portion of San Diego Counties in the U. S. Congress, further explained that King, and the Catholic Father Junipero Serra were selected by a state-named commission, following 67 years of controversy, to be so honored in our nation's Capitol. King went up and down the State preaching on behalf of the Union, following the Civil War. Congressman UTT is seeking re-election to his third term in Congress. As a former member of the Waya and Means Committee, he had much to do with the record tax reduction granted in 1954. He has opposed Big Government with its wasteful spending, and supports true American Constitutional Government. He solicits your vote in November. Advt.
