STATE DIVISION AND IRRIGATION.

A resolution was introduced on Thurs
day in the international irrigation con.
gress to the effect that state division is
the only hope Of South California to
secure proper irrigation legislation. The
HERALD has time and again exemplified
and amplified this argument with facts
and figures too numerous to be repeated
here. Notwithstanding there were a
numb ber of gentlemen from South Cali
fornia on the committee on resolutions,
they permitted themselves to be COM
promised on the question for the sake OF
avoiding battle. Some were persuaded
that the question as put is not german
to the object of the congress.
We are either going to have relief on
irrigation matters or we are not. Such
relief will only come through state di.
vision. The question is german. The
committee saw fit to table the resolu.
tion. But the mover is not of kind to
be easily put down or silently witness
South California wounded without a
protect in the house of her friends. The
resolution will be called up this morn
ing either by motion or appeal to the
congress, and, if it goes down, it will 60
down with flying colora.
Now ID the time aud the hour for the
delegates in the congress, who are the
friends of South California to show their
hands. Last night the congress in.
dorsed the admission ofArzona into the
union, on the ground that as state SIZE
could secure better irrigation legislation
under self-government. The came prin-
ciple applies to South California. Phys
icaly she is a separate empire from
North California, and, like Weet Vir.
ginia, is entitled to self-government.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due TO its presenting
in tho form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties OF a perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and feyers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys. Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syftip of Figs is for sale By all drug
gists in 50c and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose nameis printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

THAT BICYCLE RACE.

The swifts Training for the Five-Mfle
Handicap.
Nearly all tha speedy cyclists, and
some that are not 30 speedy, are training
for the five-mile handicap race to be run
at Agricultural park next Tuesday in
connection with the races OF the indus.
trial fair.
Such crack riders as Fox, Shoemaker
and McCrea OF Riverside. Jenkins,
Cromwell, Holbrook. Gatensburg, Stew
ensop, Houston, Mclaughlin and others
OF this city will compete. With this
invincible coterie of riders the race will
be one of the best ever run at the park
and will be a big drawing card.
A fine, high-grade bicycle will be
given for first time, gold stop-watch
for fret place and a fine euit OF clothes
for second place.
In the last five mile handicap at Ath-
letic park October End it is thought
come of the best riders were out -handi-
capped, and it is hoped, at least among
the riders, that such will not be the
case with the coming race.
Fox is still lowering his record on the
wheel. Day before yesterday he rode
q mile in the quick time OF 2:1S As, the
best riding ever done west of the Rock
les. w. X. Cowan and Herb McCrea
were his pacemakers.
Dave Burke, the erstwhile coast cham
pion, who has been spending several
months in the east, is expected home

THERE has been good deal OF regret
amongst the people of Les Angeles at
the fact that the grand jury was illegally
drawn. That body, however remiss it
may have been in some respects, found
number of indictments which the peo-
pie desired to see brought to trial. This
was notably the case in the City bank
matter. We were told that the draw
back attending the illegal drawing is not
go great because it is in the power OF
the district attorney to make informs
tions in these cases, The HERALD begs
to suggest to District Attorney Dillon
that the people of Los Angeles do not
desire to ses any miscarriage of justice
in these matters. They not only do not
desire to see it, but they will be
greatly incensed if there should
be any such lsmentable misad-
venture. The grand jury having
passed into the limbo OF things lost
upon earth, the district attorneys Office
should supplement the detective pro-
cess OF that body with information en-
bodying all the essential facts. 1t may
be that the corporation OF individuals
may be required. As to this we are not
advised. But, if it is go required, there
ought to be no difficulty in securing the
affidavits of persons wronged by the
neiarious operations OF this bank. The
people will insist that there shall be no
miscarriage OF justice in one OF the most
f1agitious episodes in our local history.

One OF the leading members OF the ir.
rigasion congress- yesterday said to the
writer that Los Angeles is an ''ideal
city," And just there he spoke words
of wisdom. There is certainly no possi-
bility of disputing this judgment. And
here we will venture to put a flea into
the ear of our enterprising citizens. Let
it be their mission to see to it that all
the gentlemen who have come to gauge
us from abroad shall know exactly what
Los Angeles is before they leave us.
This city covers thirty-six square miles.
and it takes some little time to look it over
thoroughly. To put the case differently.
the angelic city covers within a fraction
of one-third OF the superfcies of the
great city OF London, the capital, as to
population and wealth, of the world.
1t would be crime to allow single one
OF the intelligent gentlemen who have
come from afsr to take up their tempo
rary soJourn in our midst to 60 back to
their homes without an opportunity OF
gauging the accomplished growth. and
the possibilities of growth, of the city
that is, par excellence, the irrigation
flower OF the world. Next week, it is
understood is to be devoted to excurs.
ions around the country, which should.
OF course, included the San Gabriel val
ley, Pasadena, Santa Monica, San Pedro
Long Beach, Orange county, including
the original colony of Anaheim, River
side, San Bernardino and Rsdlsnds.
Such an experience cannot fail to be
both instructive and delightful.
