do not reappolnt any one but Mr. Root,
The desire on your part to retain your

pure sentmentalism. You owe the
country the services Of the best men
you can find in your party. Why not

delight the country by consulting men
like George +. Edmunds. II you should
induce George +. Hoar TO sit in your
cabinet you would thereby secure the
honest advice OF one Of the purest pa
triots and one Of the wisest public men

But in spite of all that had been done before. the system as it stands today. so far aS actual construction goes,is mainly io be credited io the year now closing. When one recalls that the system embraces about 70 miles of main canal through Mexican territory and more than twenty-five miles through California, these eauais ranging from thirty io seventy feet in width on the bottom, and that more

While there has been a vast amount of talk of irrigation enterprises io be promoted in the State. uo new ventures oi importance have been made. and there are now. as year ago, but three grcas irrigation projects in process of execution in the State. two of these being in San Diego county and one in San Bcrnardino county. Of much i'm. por-ance. however, IS the artcsian we'll developuieu, about Indio. in Riverside county.
 The Arrowhead reservoir system, on the mountains above San Beruar- dino. was begun about 1890, and is now slowly moving on toward completion. the water 10 be available for the or ehards of the Upper Santa Ana valley.
 Some years ago there was organized in San Diego county inc Southern Cal ifornia Mountain Water Company. Several fine reservoir sites were located im the mountains between Imperial and San Diego. and for many months there has been great activity In build ing dams md condui;s for water, with the resul, iha; the time is close a; hand when water will be available for several thousand acres of orchards m the country about San Diego. while the standardization of water interests in that region seems Co have put all end to long series of umProfiiabie contentious between representatives of various interests
 As for the system of artesian wells about Indio. II is too early to speak definitely of ihe exact value of the work being done. Much land IS being brought under most profitable eul- ,ivatiou, and fl inc arteSian water sup ply does not become exhausted. as has been the case with ma ny ariesian belts. the Indio eou ntry will be one of the most important acquisitions ever made by Southern California.

GreateSt Achievement

Looking back over the above, the query is a natural one, wha, is the greatest achievement of California during the year now closing? Pos sibly it is no; an easy question for every body 10 answer. and there may be some diversity of opinion regarding ,he proper answer. Blu, if we can take a the bas sis of our decision the promo rion of the health. wealth and happi- ness of inc greatest number of people, holding that to be the greatest achieve nient which mos, promotes these fac tors of human experience. II would seem that the greatest of all achieve ments in California during the closing year is the building of all irrigation system 10 the point of wiPing out SO.' GOO acres of desert, making possible the creation of I7OO farm homes aud al many more homes in adjacent towns; the possible placing of 10000 or l2,OOO people in close touch with the soil, where they can harvest the bounty of nature with great profit to themselves; the building upof region which must in years to come have greater produc- tive power than any other full county in Southern California; opening to the wholesale business men of the larger cities trade connections with large and prosperous community, and. tn- ally, the production in large quantities of such commodities as the markets of the whole country will demand from our peculiar climate.
 The Imperial valley as a New Years gift to California is not to be ignored I, is the greatest gift that has ever been made to the State and the great est that iu all the years tO come can b' made. The valley is yet in it's m
 fancy. There are yet toii and time re quired 10 bring it 10 fruition, bu
 greater changes have here taken plac'
 in the last twelve months than wer'
 before known in section of Caiifor

 The system is uo, just now in the best condition for review. fer one mus, look a few days into the future ,o sec the completion ot cigh, or nine latcrals and a main canal. all being rapidly constructed Co the northward for the testrihution of water over IFS. ono acres of land already filed on.

 H is conservative statement, therefore. Co say that the work of the California Development company during 1901 has amounted to placing water on abou; 5000 acres, or in one year making in the Imperial valley tho largest area of irrigated land m Southern California. Even this, how ever. is not all. for much of the work done has been for the ultimate irri- ga,ion of about Soo.0o0 acres in the valley. grand total which i, wiH take several years, in all probability. 10 reach.
 In the creation of this system, two towns have been established. and though less than year old. they are thriving communities.
