REDLANDS. Nov. 19.-(Regular Cor
respondence) Exaggerated;reports have
gone ouV in reference to the discharge by
the Southern California Power company
of aflarge number Of men employed upon
its works in the Santa Ana canyon for
the development of electricity by water
power. The company Is not In any
financial embarrassment. The discharge
of employees Is simply a measure of
economy, as large force cannot be
employed to advantage under present
conditions. The largest tunnel Of the
nineteen In course OF construction! Is to
be 2067 feet long, but as the TUNNEL Is
only 5Ax7h feet only three men can
work at a time at each end, and prog
ress Is therefore comparatively slow. A
large part Of the force formerly en-
plcyed was intended for the flume and
cement work, but 1t would not be worth
while to construct the fumes while tun-
mel No. 10 was still uncompleted. They
would simply be exposed to the action
of the sun without water in them,' and
would be damaged by warping.
Miss Farmer Of Eliot, Me-, a writer for
the New York Sun, was In Redlands a
day or two ago, studying its beauties and
resources. Her father was Moses G.
Farmer, score Of years ago one Of the

States.
