TO REOPEN THE DITCH.

The re-opening Of the upper Labor
ditch. closed during the Paschal and
Elmendorf administration, is considered
by Mayor Callaghan as a necessity for
the life of the trees and shrubbery in
San Pedro park grove, to irrigate them
and at the same time to drain the wa
ter from Laurel Heights which has
heretofore badly washed the park
grounds. He will probably recon-
mend the re-opening this ditch at the
next council session.
