Matthew H. Arnold (Please see Edward Arnold's biography & genealogy of May 9th.)
Matthew H. Arnold is a prominent rancher of Ventura County, and a pioneer of California. A brief sketch of his life is as follows: He was born in DeKalb County, Illinois, February 16, 1844. His father, Cullar Arnold, is a native of Ohio, born in 1818; has been a pioneer of California since 1849, and is now a resident of Orange, Orange, County. The ancestors of the Arnold family came from Connecticut and Vermont. The grandfather's name was Nathan Arnold, and grandmother's name on father's side was Cutler. His mother's name was Hough. She was born in New York State, of ancestors who were from Connecticut and Massachusetts. Burage Hough was her father's name and Alexander her mother's name. Cullar Arnold had nine children, of whom eight are living in California. Mr. Arnold, whose name heads this sketch, received his education in the public schools and at Oakland College, California, and, since leaving school, his time has been principally devoted to agricultural pursuits. He came to California in 1852, and to Ventura County in November, 1868, and his present location December, 1878. In November, 1869, they settled on what they supposed was Government land; but, on finding their mistake, his father and two of the sons bought 480 acres, and afterward 160 acres more. Matthew H. purchased 320 acres, and to it has since added eighty acres. The first purchase was at $10.50 per acres and the last at $8.50. This land is now worth from $100 to $125 per acre. Mr. Arnold's principal crop has been barley, but the land is well adapted to the cultivation of other grains, and without irrigation. He derives a good income from the hogs, Poland-China and Berkshire, kept on this place.
In 1877 Mr. Arnold wedded Miss Eliza Perkins, a native of Maine, daughter of T. E. Perkins, now of Los Angeles County. They have four children, all born at their present home: Ralph, Chester, Jo and Alice. In politics Mr. Arnold is a Republican. He was elected School Trustee when the district was formed, and held the office twelve years. He is a member of the A. O. U. W.
When Mr. Arnold came to this ranch it was a wilderness of mustard, and there were only three or four board houses between there and the river, a distance of six miles. Since that time the settlement has been rapid and the improvement wonderful. The people who had faith in the future of the county and the courage to settle in it then, are now amply repaid.

Leroy Arnold (Please see Edward Arnold's biography & genealogy of May 9th.)
Leroy Arnold is a pioneer of California, having come to this coast in 1852, when a boy ten years of age. He was born in DeKalb County, Illinois, January 22, 1842. His father, Cullar Arnold, is a native of Ohio, born in 1818, and now resides in Orange, Orange County, California. The Arnolds were among the early settlers of America. Mr. Arnold's mother, Emily (Hough) Arnold, was born in the State of Illinois. For a number of generations her ancestors were residents of the United States. Leroy Arnold is one of a family of nine children, six sons and two daughters now being residents of California, and one child having died in infancy. His father, on coming to California with his family, settled in Marysville, and opened two stores of miners' supplies, one at Nelson Creek and the other at Goodyear's Bar. He was there for three years, and then moved to Martinez, Contra Costa County, where he farmed two years. After this he kept hotel in Sierra County. In 1857 they went to Lassen County, engaged in farming and stock-raising, and remained there until 1868, when they came to Ventura County and located on 320 acres of land, where the Arnold brothers now reside. After finding that it was not Government land they bought the property, and later added 900 acres more. It is a splendid tract of land, three miles east of Hueneme. The brothers have bought and sold among themselves, and Leroy Arnold now owns 160 acres of it. He has improved this by building, tree-planting, etc. He has an artesian well, with seven and a half pipe, in which the water rises sixteen feet above the level of the ground. He has remodeled the house, built the barns, and, under his judicious management, the place presents an attractive appearance.
Mr. Arnold was married September 19, 1875, to Miss Carrie F. Hill, a native of Indiana, and daughter of William Hill. They have had seven children, all natives of the Golden State, and all living, viz.: Effie F. is the wife of A.D. Smith, and resides in San Buenaventura; Mary L. married S. G. Sheppard, and resides at Hueneme; and the following are at home with their parents, - Martha E., Oliver B., Royston C., Alton E., and Ida L. Mr. Arnold is a Master Mason and a member of the A. O. U. W. In politics, he is a Republican, having cast his first vote for Abraham Lincoln.

Henry H. Arnold (Please see Edward Arnold's genealogy of May 9th)
Henry H. Arnold, the oldest of the Arnold brothers, who came to California in 1852, and settled in Ventura County, two miles east of Hueneme, in 1871, was born in De Kalb County, Illinois, November 10, 1837. (For the father's history, see the sketch of Mathew H. Arnold, in this book.) Henry H. left his native State when fourteen years of age, and came across the Isthmus of Nicaragua to California, with the family, and settled in Marysville, in 1857. He located 160 acres of land in Lassen County, built a house and made it his home for fourteen years, being engaged in raising grain and stock. He sold out and came to Ventura County in 1871, as already stated, his father having come to this county two years previous to that time, thinking he had found the finest tract of Government land. They were more than a month coming from Lassen County, and their outfit consisted of four wagons drawn by horses, the party numbering Henry H. and Leroy Arnold, B.J. Robertson (father-in-law of the subject of this sketch), his son Frank, and their wives and children - eleven in all. They camped out every night, and as there was plenty of deer, antelope, and quails, they had all the meat they wanted. In their journey across the plains and in their pioneer life in the far West they had become accustomed to that kind of life, and enjoyed it. When they arrived at their destination they found a squatter's board shanty on nearly every quarter-section of land. Mr. Arnold went up the Sespe River to look for a place, but returned and settled in his present locality. This land proved to belong to Thomas Scott, and Mr. Arnold bought 160 acres, on which they camped for three months, or until he got a house built. In 1881 he built a better house, and in 1889 he added to it and remodeled it, until he now has a commodious home. Mr. Arnold's principal crop has been barley, and he has farmed from 300 to 1,200 acres of land. He is also engaged in raising horses, Belgium stock, and is the owner of Dandy Dick, a fine thoroughbred, seventeen and a half hands high, weight 1,720 pounds.
Mr. Arnold was married in 1866 to Miss Permilia Robertson, a native of Illinois. They have five children, Charles R. and Annie G., born in Lassen County, and the three younger, Lizie, Nellie and Eliza, born in Ventura County. Charles R. married Miss Helen Hodge, a native of California. They have a litle daughter, Hazel. This son also has a nice house on the ranch.
The subject of this sketch belongs to the A.O.U.W., and has been a life-long Republican. His first vote was cast for that great, good man Abraham Lincoln. The arnold brothers own large tracts of land adjoining each other, and are all prominent ranchers of this county.

GOP faithful size up the candidates during debate party

GOP faithful size up the candidates during debate party

They dipped chips in guacamole, nibbled on pepperoni pizza, gazed at 27-inch television screens and tried to spot a winner.
About 75 Republicans from across Ventura County watched the debate together in a small conference room at the Grand Vista Hotel in Simi Valley, sitting at tables decorated with Republican buttons and stickers.
Some came looking for a candidate who would unify the party or was most consistent or who hit the right note on the right issue.
Sue Martinez, a home health aide from Simi Valley, had a more specific question in mind.
"Who will beat Hillary?" she asked, predicting the campaign will be vicious. "Who can handle the heat of the campaign? Who can handle the Clinton machine?"
The crowd filled the conference room and then some in an event sponsored by the Ventura County Republican Party. Some scrawled notes or said "yes" when a candidate supported staying in Iraq or not chasing faith out of the public square. Many cheered and a woman wearing a red, white and blue scarf talked back to the screen, starting her own private debate with John McCain when the senator from Arizona said the war had been mismanaged.
"President Bush did not mismanage it," she said angrily.
Looking for hope
Some people focused on issues of morality or national security or income tax.
Steve Ziegler, a painter from Simi Valley, was looking for candidates who inspired hope.
"I like the whole return to optimism. I think that's a big issue," he said.
"I think if we return to a state of optimism, that's what will build the morale of the country."
But Jon Miller of Moorpark, who stood against a tan wall, neither came to nor left the debate feeling particularly inspired.
"I think I saw what I expected to see," he said as the debate neared its end, referring to what he called quibbling and answers that weren't meaty enough.
"It's no different than the Democratic debate. This won't get substantive until it gets down to about five people."
Greg Foster, a 60-year-old tile setter from Santa Paula, came to the viewing party in part because he doesn't have a television set. After the debate, as the crowd waited for representatives from some of the campaigns to lead a roundtable discussion, he sat with a candidate guide and did his own post-game analysis.
'It's like lights out'
"The one I think shot himself in the foot is McCain," he said, referring to the senator's statement that he believes in evolution. "It's like lights out, the end."
A Rudy Giuliani supporter said she was disappointed in her candidate but impressed by Mitt Romney. The former Massachusetts governor opened other eyes as well and inspired an argument in the hotel bar over whether a Mormon could be elected president.
But few people agreed on who won, throwing out names as little known as Rep. Ron Paul of Texas and Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado.
Martinez, who focused on beating Hillary Clinton, rattled off the names of some of the candidates who impressed her: Romney, Tancredo and Rep. Duncan Hunter of California.
"I think any of them can beat Hillary if we all get behind them," she said.
Kimble Ouerbacker, a Ventura lawyer, came to the debate with his wife and his two kids, ages 7 and 5. He wants them to learn about how the political system works.
But as Dad ruminated over whether the best candidate was also the most electable, 5-year-old Kaylan pondered another question. If he had his choice, would he stay and watch the debate or do something else?
He hesitated just a moment.
"Do something else," he said.

Edward F. Arnold
Edward F. Arnold was born in Martinez, Contra Costa County, California, November 4, 1853. His father, Cutler Arnold, came to California in 1849. (See sketch of the family in the history of Mr. Mathew Arnold, a brother of Edward F.) Mr. Arnold was reared and educated in the county of Lassen and in Sacramento, and came to Ventura County before he was twenty-one years old. When he reached his majority he owned 120 acres of land near Hueneme. In 1886, being in poor health, he sold this property to his brother and came to Nordhoff. He purchased 100 acres of land, improved it in part, and sold it in 1887. He then engaged in the mercantile business, the firm being Arnold & Van Curen. A year later he sold out and built his present drug store. The firm of Arnold & Sager have the only drug house in Nordhoff. It is well fitted and stocked with everything in the drug line. These gentlemen, being courteous and obliging, have established a fine trade and enjoy the good-will of the entire community.
Mr. Arnold has built for himself and family a comfortable residence, has regained his heatlh, and is now in a fair situation to enjoy life. He was married in 1878 to Miss Lou Trotter, a native of Illinois, and a resident of California since 1877. They have three children, two born at Hueneme and one at Nordhoff, viz.: Albert Walter, Lora L. and Frank. Mr. Arnold is a Republican; was elected Justice of the Peace, but, not desiring office, resigned.

Edward F. Arnold
Edward F. Arnold was born in Martinez, Contra Costa County, California, November 4, 1853. His father, Cutler Arnold, came to California in 1849. (See sketch of the family in the history of Mr. Mathew Arnold, a brother of Edward F.) Mr. Arnold was reared and educated in the county of Lassen and in Sacramento, and came to Ventura County before he was twenty-one years old. When he reached his majority he owned 120 acres of land near Hueneme. In 1886, being in poor health, he sold this property to his brother and came to Nordhoff. He purchased 100 acres of land, improved it in part, and sold it in 1887. He then engaged in the mercantile business, the firm being Arnold & Van Curen. A year later he sold out and built his present drug store. The firm of Arnold & Sager have the only drug house in Nordhoff. It is well fitted and stocked with everything in the drug line. These gentlemen, being courteous and obliging, have established a fine trade and enjoy the good-will of the entire community.
Mr. Arnold has built for himself and family a comfortable residence, has regained his heatlh, and is now in a fair situation to enjoy life. He was married in 1878 to Miss Lou Trotter, a native of Illinois, and a resident of California since 1877. They have three children, two born at Hueneme and one at Nordhoff, viz.: Albert Walter, Lora L. and Frank. Mr. Arnold is a Republican; was elected Justice of the Peace, but, not desiring office, resigned.

California Republican Party Launches Bold New Website at CAGOP.ORG
California Republican Party Launches Bold New Website at CAGOP.ORG
Mission is to give California Republicans the "best in the nation,"
strongest online tools for organizing and communicating
(SACRAMENTO) - Citing the need to provide California Republicans with the
best tools for the 2008 campaign, the California Republican Party today
announced the launch of its new website at www.cagop.org.
"Our goal is to provide California Republicans with the most useful and
sophisticated online tools for the campaign, combined with the latest,
continually updated information," said CRP Chairman Ron Nehring. "The new
cagop.org is the new hub of our communications operation for millions of
voters across the state."
The new site, launched today, is the culmination of months of continuous
work by a development team that included Jeff McGee with SunStar Media of
Monterey, Chairman Nehring, Director of Communications Hector Barajas,
Chief Operating Officer Michael Kamburowski, and Vice Chairman Tom Del
Beccaro.
"Technology is completely changing how we communicate in politics," said
Del Beccaro. "Volunteers, candidates, donors, elected officials and
Republican voters need tools that go way beyond the online brochure of the
past. Our new site delivers those tools."
Highlights of the New CAGOP.ORG
News Room All CRP press releases, statements, Chairman's Reports, Capitol
Updates, Washington Updates, plus audio and video archives and links to
other Republican news sources are all available at a glance on a single
page.
Your County Republican site visitors are encouraged to get involved with
their county Republican Party through a graphical interface allowing the
user to easily select and obtain online and live contact information for
their local Republican committee.
Contact the Media Users can share their opinions on today's issues using
a tool to reach their local print and talk radio outlets just by
selecting where they live. A built-in form provides checkboxes to reach
their local talk show hosts or newspaper opinion page.
Events Calendar with Events by County Visitors can see a list of
statewide Republican events, or those events taking place in their county.
County Chairmen will be provided an account through which they can add
Republican events in their county to the state website.
Party building In an effort to maximize the number of Republicans
volunteering their time or making contributions to the party, the new site
prominently features volunteer signup and secure online donation sections.
New volunteers who signup through the site will be provided to county
Republican committees and candidates, helping to build our grassroots
ranks.
As the 2008 campaign intensifies, even more tools will be added to
cagop.org. Announcements with information on new tools will be sent to CRP
members, volunteers, donors, elected officials, candidates and activists
as they're added.
