People are moving in from all parts of Southern California and outside To- calities with their families and goods to occupy their lands.
 There is probably. at present, a population of l5OO people in the east ern end of San Diego county. includ- ing the mining communities near the Colorado River.
 At the present rate of growth, this Imperial end of San Diego county will have population of more than 5000 before January 1. 1903, and this would entitle the people of this sec ton to have a new county formed.
 If the requisite number of people are not here by January 1. 1903, so that the Legislature that meets that month can authorize the formation of a new county at that time, there will be the requisite number here two years later-January 1, 1905, when such new county can be formed.

 It Is no wonder that under these conditions there should be a demand for smaller tracts of land in the vicin. ity of the growing towns or course. all the government lands in the vii cinity of Imperial were taken up months ago. and the prices have ad-

 Look at the counties of California and compare the population of the counties with their county seats and see if these estimates are not more than conservative.
 Before Imperial reaches a popula- tion of 1000 the town will have be- come city and will have grown be- yond the present boundaries of one mile square.
 This rapid development will be has tened by several very important con. si.erations:
 First-The land Is cheap as a start, er-the uniform price paid the gov. ernment being only $l.25 per acre.

yanced from the original low price to higher, but still a low price when the future possibilities are taken into consideration.
 To meet the demand for smaller tracts. the Imperial Land Company has subdivided very choice tract of land to the west and north of Tm- perial adjoining the town plat within half mile of the business center, into ten-acre villa lots, and this sub- division is to be known as Imperial Subdivision No. 1.
 This subdivision is made to con- form as nearly as possible with the town plat of Imperial so that as the town or city Is extended over this ter ritory. the additions may be uniform in character of lots and blocks with the original town plat of one mile square.

 This irrigated land in this State will. when fully developed. support a population of from 100000 to 150OOO people. Such population will make necessary one city of 10000 people or more. to say nothing of the other smaller cities and towns.
 Before Imperial reaches a popula- tion of 5000 this entire Imperial Villa Tract will have been subdivided and annexed to the residence portion of the (then) city.

Would Inspect Naphtha Launches.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The House
committee on Marine and Fisheries
has received letter from General
Dumont, supervising, inspector of
steam vessels, endorsing the bill 10
require the inspection of naphtha
launches and other craft propelled by
gas, naphtha, etc, which carry passen-
gers or freight without regard to the
tonnage of the vessels. The act TO
be amended fixed the minimum limit
of tonnage of vessels TO be inspected
at Is tons. General Dumont wrote
that vessels slightly under fifteen tons
on the western waters run in competi-
ticn with steam vessels carrying pas
sengers and being exempt from steam
boat laws, have made no provision for
the safety of passengers. He express
es the opinion that the enactment of
the bill into law is necessity for the
prevention of the loss of life on gaso-
line and other motor vessels.
