THE WAR
The Policy Of Waiting is stu
In Force.

The war news Of the past week
may be summed up in very brief
space.
At the time we went TO press last
week, McKinley's ultimatum was
10 Spain's hands and the time Tor
an answer had almost expired,
Congress was apparently ON the
point OF taking matters into their
OWn hands and declaring war, and
Reed's promise ofexecutive action
within forty-eight hours seemed
to be the only thing restraining
them. But SPANS reply came
and was a refusal Of the most i'm
pOrtsnt demand made By the
President-that Of Cuban indepen-
dence. Then Congress gave the
President until Monday TO pre-
pare his message and transmit 1t
to Congress, and the members
announced that as the limit. Mon
day came, but no message. The
date was then fixed for Wednes-
day.
Wednesday found the galleries
OF the House and Senate packed
with an excited, eXpectant crowd
But the only news they got was
that the message would be held IN.
til next Monday.
tits reported that the delay ID
occasiOned by a message from the
Queen Regent OF Spain indicating
that she had taken matters Out
OF the hands OF her Cabinet Minis
tiers and would in all probability
accede to all the demands OF tn,
United States.
Another report says the delay wa
to give Gen. Lee and other Ameri
cans a chance to get out OF Cuba.
In the meantime our preparation
for war have been going on at tn
greatest possible speed.
The Spanish war feet Is at som
Islands conveniently near.

1t is with feeling of justifiable pride
that our citizens can look back over the
year that is past and take note Of the
steady and substantial growth which
Covina has made in these twelve months
This growth has in no wise been In the
nature of boom, but was produced by
a natural cause.-the large and ever in
creasing output Of our oranges Some
slight conception can be gathered OF the
magnitude and future possibilities OF
the orange industry in the locality from
the fact that there will be shipped from
this point this season over 900 cars, an
increase in one year Of $50 cars. While
admitting that the crop this present sea-
son is a good one, this increase over last
wear can largely be attributed to the
coming into bearing of number Of
young orchards, and it is an unques-
tionable fact that for many years to
come the output will steadily increase.
To handle this years crop, the Covina
Citrus association has greatly enlarged
its house, almost doubling it's floor ca
pacity. It's building as now completed
is the largest and most convenient pack
ing house in Southern California. The

RESIDENCE OF ELLIOTT H1NMAN

Business of all kinds during the past
year has been an improvement over that
of last year. More money has been In
circulation and collections have been
easier. The large amount of apricots
and peaches handled at the cannery and
the various dry yards during the sum-
mer season gave employment to at least
thousand people in and around Pomo-
ma. This meant the distribution monthly
of from $35, 900 to $4,000 to those who
handled the fruit after it's picking. The
cannery did larger business than ever
before in its history and would have put
up even larger pack could it have OBJ
tanned suitable fruit for high grade goods.
Quite large amount of building has
been in progress this year. A number
of very fine residences have been erected
on Holt and Carey avenues, adding
much to the attractiveness of those thor
oughfares.
The Palomares hotel, which had been
standing idle for some time, has been
opened to accommodate the increasing
number of travelling people coming to
Pomona.
The business of the postoffice shows
quite a considerable increase in revenues
and number of packages handled. Some
extension has also been made to the car
rier routes.
The volume of the business done by the
railroads and the teams running to Los
Angeles shows a very healthy increase.
Electric light and telephone wires have
been connected with very large number
of private residences, adding additional
comfort and convenience to many homes.
Taxes have been increased by the city
trustees for the purpose of improving
many of the prominent avenues. This is
considered one of the most satisfactory
improvements ever made by the city.
The large rainfall of last winter was
the means of making large hay crop
and a good tree fruitage. The orange
crop which is just beginning to be har-
vested, promises to be very large and
will add considerable wealth to the resi-
dents of this vicinity.
The rapidly increasing yearly yield of
fruit in this vicinity Is attracting the at
tention of growers and causing them to
The herald., 1898-01-02

Fay Fruit company has also just COM
pleted the erection Of a packing house.
The new Chapman and A. o. u. w.
block was also built during the past
summer and the handsome structure,
which stands on the corner of Citrus
avenue and Badillo street, would be a
credit to towns of far greater magnitude
than Covina. The ground floor consists
of two large store rooms, with the en-
tire upper story handsome lodge hall,
banquet hall and ante rooms.
The Baptist denomination has erected
a comfortable church on Second street.
The past year has also seen the con-
struction Of number of handsome
homes in our midst. A pleasing feature
Of the building improvements which
have been done this year has been their
substantial character, showing that our
citizens have strong faith in Covina as
business center.
Although, as shown above, the amount
OF building done has greatly exceeded
any previous year in the history of Co.
VIVA, the demand for residence property
Is far In excess of the present supply. and
the year 1898 bids fair to be one Of great
activity In the building linz.

Among all the broad and fertile val
leys of Southern California there is no
more promising and prosperous section
than that which lies about the little
village of Norwalk seventeen miles
southeast of Los Angeles Being near
to Los Angeles makes it an ideal place
for dairying, and butter making is the
principal industry. Here are two cream
cries: the Star, owned and operated by
Mr.. w. Harvey Smith, and the Coop
erative, of which Mr.. ]. Swigsart is sec
rotary and manager.
The combined output of these two
creameries for the year exceeds 331, 500
pounds of butter and 1000 pounds of
cheese. TO do this has required over
100000 pounds of milk, for which the
farmers who furnished it received nearly
$4,000. This amount of money, averag-
ing $4,000 monthly, placed in circulation
has an agreeable influence upon bust
ness.
A disastrous fire last winter DESTROYED
several business places and for a time
cast something of a gloom over the COM
munity. But better buildings have taken
Sheir places.
Among the principal improvements
during 1897 have been the two-storv
brick building erected by Dir. w n.
Merchant, of which the lower floor is
occupied by drug store and the post
Office and tn eupper floor by Offices: a
one-story brick building, containing
three stores, by J. Swiggart; a frame
puliding, erected and occupied by Stef-
