ILLEGAL BEER SELLING
How It Got the Anaheim Turner's Into
Trouble

ORANGE, June Con Sunday the Turn
ers Of Anaheim held picnic at the county
park in Santiago canyon east of Orange
Two beer wagons, one from Anaheim and
one from Santa Ana were dispensing beer
without a license and in violation of the
terms upon which the park was decided to
the county. l.. West, guardian of the
park, secured the assistance of Constable
Cervantes to enforce the law The con-
stable came to Orange and explained the
situation to Supervisor Armor, who swore
to complaint, and they went together to
the park Supervisor Armor tried to rea-
son with the crowd, but they would not
let him be heard. Subsequently, Ramon
Wiser and Fred Greenway were arrested.
The latter appeared before Justice of the
Peace Craddick this morning and entered
a plea of not guilty. His trial was set for
next Monday. More arrests will probably
be made. Constable Cervantes of Orange
asserts that officers of Anaheim, instead
of aiding him to enforce the law, lent their
sympathies with the crowd
A statement has been published that
there were 100 boxes of oranges Skinned
from here to Company L, Seventh regi-
ment This is incorrect, and The Herald
has been asked to say that there were only
fifty boxes forwarded. These were do
mated by Charles Dufford and packed gra-
tus by E. J. Parker.
Memorial exercises will be held in the
Bank hall on Tuesday evening.
