Work will at once be commenced on the construction of the Christian church. Material is all on the ground and the building will go up rapidly. Rev. J. C.

 Week.
 w. F. and Leroy Holt left here Mon day of last week for Flowingwell, to resume work oil the telephone line. The work has been delayed for some time on account of the poles failing to arrive. A good force of workmen are nov employed and the work will pro- gress very rapidly, and Mir. Holt ex- poets to have the line completed to I'm perial some time during next week.
 Four stations will be established. at once, and others will be added as it becomes necessary. One station will be placed at Iris, to connect with the telegraph, one at Flowingwell, one at Imperial and one al Cameron Lake. It it is thought that a station will be necessary at Sunset Springs, on East Side tract very soon.

 C. H. EBERLE,
 DowNEY CHAMPION. A. F. Clarke, of the Riverside Press, yawps thusly:
 All hail, Imperial
 You waste of desolation, With never an indication
 Of greatness latent
 Open up your eye of faith
 And squint
 Hereward
 A decade hence.
 See the desert transformed And the act performed
 Which welded water to fertile land. Kindly Natures gracious act Of promise prophetic
 Finds realization thrice perfected, And every hope fulfilled.
 Imperial
 'Tis a name to conjure
 And so we adjure
 You to make known its charms. Imperial has a future, and that future is assured. Crops will re- ward industry, and fat cattle will make the land famous.

Perhaps no finer body of men ever visited any place than that composing the Imperial Editorial Party, which reached the city at noon Wednesday, April 10. About P. M. the party filed into the PRESS headquarters and paid us tribute that shall long be remem- bered and which is the most interest ing feature of the initial number of the paper.

Here the morning bath is taken in imaginary water; then a brisk walk is enjoy el down the imaginary boule- ward; with the aid of pipe the mornings news can be imagined, even to the cablegrams; in fact, all the comforts of civilization can be inn agned by the nervy men who propose to m ike them realities. Here's to their success. s.-I. H. Rice, Western Graphic, L. A.
 The Imperial Colony, the largest ir- rigation development in America, will bring into use and fruitfulness, the most fertile body of arid land on the continent, and will make a desert waste a community of happy homes, and a center of industrial activity.
