Fair Matters-Anaheim Notes-Claus
spreckels' Purchase.
SANTA ANA, Sept. 22.-The fair directors have
decided upon spurgeon's opera house as the
place for holding the pavilion exhibit this
season, and arrangements have been made ac-
cordingly. TIE large hall and the armory will
be fitted up, and the work of arranging the ex-
hibits will begin next week.
It is believed now that this department of
the county fair will be fully up to the average.
and perhaps better than in previous years, aud
certainly the outlook is encouraging. Mr.
hope of encouraging farmers to add to the dis
play by bringing in products.
ANAHEIM NEWS NOTES.
The beet sugar business is progressing finely.
The first payment OF $11 600 was received
from the Chino factory and has been placed in
the vaults OF the Commercial bank In Santa
Ana, as this city cannot now claim o bank. A
new bank should be organized, and at once.
speaking of this, the Anaheim Gazette says:
at is especially unfortunate that the bank
should be closed at this time, as within the
week upwards OF $11 900 arrived here from
Chino TO pay for beets There being no bank
TO deposit with here, the money was taken to
kanta Ana and deposited In the Commercial
bank. This money should, of course, have
bean deposited here, but 1t goes across the
river to be disbursed from the county seat On
the first OF next month there will be another
consignment OF gold from Chino, and the total
amount to be paid the beet farmers this season
will not be far from 100000. We should have
a bank here to get some of this money, and our
influential men of means should bestir them
selves to that end. If the beet farmers are
compelled to go to santa Ana to get their
money, they will necessarily do a good deal of
their trading there, which ought to be done at
home. The stores in town should cash beet
CHEEKS, and we should al treat the beet men
it."
And out of the closing OF the Anaheiri bank

ments, for rumor says everything is not what 1t
should be. Probably, before the business is
settled, there will be some work for the courts.

Spreckles be true then Orange county can we'll

represen tative could not verify the rumor to-
day. although It seems probable that some
large deal is on foot. ;. "a ~

ture OF the sugar beet In Orange county has
been found very profitable. the beels netting

sugar factories will be in operation in this
