NAME THEIR WEST
SIDEJANCIIES
Dcslgnato With Approp
riate TitlesCreates
Much Rivalry
The West Side of Goose Lake Vallev
is wealthy in havinir some wide awake
ranchers that know a eood thinir when
thev tee it. The latest stunt that thev
are pullinir off is in naming their
ranches In connection with tho farm
registration law passed at the last
election. This is one of the bent
measures that a community can have
strike them for it causes the owners
of fiirms and ranches to take pride in
their home place. Win. V. Woods has
named his ranch "Hill Crest" H. W.
Andrews "Sunnv Slope." I). A. Han
berv "KMiobow Kaneh." Walter Stone
"The Terraces." Claude Woods "The
Alcove." Jim Ilovdstun "Vallev
View." Alfred Morris "F.cho Canvon."
Kalnh Koozer "Plainview." A. I'.
Koo7cr."Fruit Center." and J. F. Han
son "I'oint Kanch." There are a num
ber of others that aro going to follow
these live wires and when thev Bet
their places in shape there is soinir to
be much rivalry reirurdinir how fine
thev ran make them. Tho new plan
makes everv one trv his best to keep
in touch with the procetsion and there
is nothing liner than the spirit that
is brought about bv the new method.
Nearlv all the places named have some
point thHt distinguishes them from
jubt merely being a "place." and thev
enrrv trie idea out nicely when thev
bring thiri characteristic into plav bv
UHinc it as a name distinguishing, it
from everything else of the kind. Tho
names are registered with the County
Clerk and become as much a part of
theoropcrtv as though it was a choice
triu of fine land. Let everv one name
their ranch and then have a fine sign
properly mounted on large posts at the
entrance to the ranch or farm, so that
everv passer by will know that it is
the exact place that is registered.

"I blew uo the I s Angeles Times j
liuilding and it hit a gas main, because
the terrible explosion that followed
scared me worse than anv one ele. I
waa the met surprised man that ever
lived because I had not expected anv
great damage would be done." Thus
ends one of the most famoua criminal
trials of modern times, with the con
fession of James H. McNamara on
trial at Ixs Angeles for the blowing uo
of the building on the night of Octo
ber 1. 1910 when 21 lives were snuffed
out. Perhaps there has never been
such a case of the kind that has caused
more discussion on the part of the peo
ple in general than the crime that has
just been exposed. The Isbor troubles
at Los Angeles, the attitude of the
owner of the Times and manv of his
eunnorters. and the feeling that has
been brought about among certain ele
ments of the Union cause, have result
ed in the belief either in tho innocence
or guilt of the men under trial. John
J. McNamara. Sccrctarv-Treasurer of
the International Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers plead
guiltv to participating in the dynamit
ing of the Lewellin Iron Wurks in Los
Arceles on the mjrbt o! Dec. 25. 1910.

after tho tire is a reality and is now
practical iv complete. Tuesday the
Nashville Jubilee Singers were there
with one of their fine entertainments
and the theatre portion was dedicated
with a show that is a fitting beginning
for tho progressive spirit that has
characterized the owner. The theatre
is 80x30 feet exclusive of the large
stage which has dressing rooms for
tho theatrical people underneath. There
is a store room in front of the show
house and the box office connects with
the pogtotlice so that the owner who is
also postmaster can attend to both
duties at tho snme time. The other
side of the building SOxlCl feet con
tains a candy and cigar store, with
manufacturing rooms and living apart
ments In tho rear. The building is
roomv. well lighted, and substantial
and while of wood throughout is in
keening with the future growth of the
town. There is no doubt that Henrv
Wendt is alive and deserves credit for
what he has done in such a short time
since the fire.

of the deal and that to plead guiltv
This hss been a difficult matter as the
love that the brothers have borne for
each other was in the wav and nnlv
through the utmost efforts on behalf of
their attornevs who had been in con
sultation with thote for the r-tate. were
thev persuaded to take this atep. The
men anicared tefore Judge Bordwell
for sentence Tuesday when J. J. Mc
Namara was sentenced to serve fifteen
vcara in the Penitentiary and J. B.
McNamara received a life rcr.tence.
Attorr.ev Clarence Harrow for the
defense stated that the attornevs for
the defenre had secured the best terms
possible fc.r their c lit its. There are
manv stsrllir.g difdosures expected
bv the detectives and others interested
in the next few davs and the PBmes of
manv others are expected to be brought
into the case. '
This crime will mark a r.ew era in
the management of Trades Unions and
will result in the better class of men
that have had to take a back seat in
manv of the Unions being bought to
the front and the relegating of the
undesirable element to the back ground
or the penitentiary. Manv of the
Unlor- throughout the country have
wired the authorities in Los Angeles
asking that the McNamaras be given
the utmost Fentmce permitted by law
but Judge Bordwell evidently had
made other arrangements.
