A Magnificent Av venue

There are but few famous streets in the United States, and but two or three of them are in Southern Califor- nia. But to the number is 10 be made an addition, for Imperial avenue prom iscs 10 be one of the longest and most beautiful of boulevards in the country, extending forty-tive miles from the Southern Pacific railroad to CaleXico, on the Mexican line. Through that distance the road will have uniform width of so feet, divided into two driveways of forty feet each by row of cottonwood trees. Through the center of tle street will be ridge to divide the street, and oil either side will be d ditch, making. it possible to flood either side and thus keep down the dust. Farmers along the street will also plant many shade trees, thus making in time tripple row of trees along the avenue, something like Magnolia avenue in Riverside and Euclid avenue in Ontario.
 The California Development com pany has been at work on the improve ment of this street for some time, and it is now completed from Calexico north of Paringa and is working on to Imperial.

What the Tourist Will See

The work which is being done in rescuing the Colorado desert is dcs- tined to wonderfully change the im- pression which the tourist entering the State for the first time will receive. There is probably no experience in travelling more disagreeablc than that of crossing the desert at present by rail in the heat of the summer. The route follows the northern ridge of the desert, for many miles being along or near the old sea beach. The lack of rainfall on the desert leaves the beach sands ready to be taken mp by each gust of wind, and as the train rushes along it throws upclouds of dust which make it imperative that the cars be kept closed, and even then the dust sifts through every tiny crevice in the cars. The temperature along the des- ert is almost tropical, though it is en- durable out of doors. But the sun beats down on the cars, the iuvigorat- ing air is shut out, the dust even in- side, with the oppressivcness of the lack of air, is almost unhcarablc. That is desert travelling by rail as it has been, and incidentally more people judge the desert by such experiences than by intimate knowledge of it,
 But to the travellers who cross that portion of the desert which is to be ir- rigated will have an entirely different experience. We can imagine, for in- stance, tourist entering the State on the San Diego Eastern railroad He

Hay and Grain
 At Diamond Lake.

Many people driving ill from the west bring stock feed further than necessary, not knowing that they can get supply at Diamond Lake, on the ranch of Arthur Ewens. This is the first feeding and watering station on the plains after leaving the mountains on either the Julian or Campo road, being at the junction of the two roads; 26 miles from Carriso Creek, Is miles from Coyote Wells, F miles from Imperial and 13 miles from Calexico.

NATIONAL IRRIGATION ASSOCIATION


 The San Francisco Chronicle makes a rather sensational statement regard ing the National Irrigation Associa- tion, which, if true, is all explanation of point which ,he people of Ca'ifor- nia have never understood. The Chronicle says:
 "A Washington dispatch states as follows:
 George II. Maxwell of San Fran cisco, who has been prominent in the National Irrigation Association for years, is the uncompromising foe of the bill and declares that ii cannot pass. The organ of the irrigation as sociation has published all article against tine bill, and this is being used by the Eastern enemies of irrigation to show that tlic Western people do not agree among themselves
 Ut is quite time that this so-called National Irrigation Association should be unmasked. Ii is all asso- citation of five transcontincntal rail road lines, which each contribute 500 o nothing else whatever. Its agent is this man Maxwell, who spends money lavishly in Washington and elsewhere, ostensibly for the 'associa,ion,' and we challenge the proof that the association has ever received any income worth mentioning except from the treasuries of these railroads.
 If it is public association, main tained in the public interest, why does it not issue the financial statement us ual in such societies? Ii does not dare to print such q financial statement, and it cannot be got to do so. This is no secret: Ii is perfectly well under stood at Washington. II is not likely that any Senator or Representative is ignorant of it. But the friends of ir- rigation, for some reason, do not like to publicly raise the issue, and the en- this Maxwell to show that the irriga- tionists are not agreed Maxwell is no 'irrigationist. He has absolutely no influence with the friends of irriga- ton. He does not represent the move mcnt in any way. His alleged Ma tional Assoc station is rotten hunbug. It represents certain railroads which want their lands irrigated at national expense. It fights the Hansbrough- Newlands bill because it compels them to pay the cost of irrigation. And that is the bill which the real friends of irrigation want"

will barely have left Yuma when he
 will enter oil the irrigated land in
 Mexican territory, passing through
 the dense foliage along the Colorado and Carter rivers, thence entering California at or near Calexico and for
 forty or fifty miles traverse fields of green with alfalfa or other crops, thence at once climbing up the noun
 taius to point about 5000 feet above
 the ocean, where he will encounter cool breezes and cheered by them will descend to the cooler ocean. Because of the extensive use of water in irriga-
 ton, because of the absence of sand and the glaring effect of great stretches of barren land, aud because of the restful green verdure, the new route to California will be d wonderful im- provcment over the old.
 Nor will this be the exclusive privi- lege of tourists on their way to San Diego, for there can be little doubt that the Southern Pacific will in few years make the great improvement which is possible by changing its main route to traverse the irrigated portion of the valley. Nothing is more certain than that in the next few years the ir- rigatcd section of the valley will reach around 10 the west and north until it has joined Indio in q complete belt of ranches. The route from Yuma to Los Angeles, can then be made almost entirely through rich farming sec ton, probably averaging from twenty tance be no greater than the present. When the Southern Pacific company sees the possibility of exchanging q miles of barren and irreclaim- able desert for all equal distance through wonderfully productive there can be little doubt that lhe change will be made.
 How soon this entire country will be opened up it is impossible to say def- nntely, but within six months half the distance from Yuma to lndio could be made in sight of luxurious verdure, either that growing voluntarily along he river or that of a stretch of thirty miles of cultivated farms, and the pros oects are bright that within five years 1t the outside Imperial and Indio will )e united in one continuous belt of arms.

CARNEGIE'S ANTI.
AMERICAN SPEECH

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, Oct. 22.-
Andrew Carnegie was today formally
reinstalled as rector Of st. Andrews
and brilliant assemblage over which
Principal Donaldson presided.
The honorary degree of doctor of laws
was subsequently conferred by St. An
drews on Mr.. Carnegie, ambassadors
Choate and White, Professor Alexan-
der Graham Bell of Washington and
Henry White, secretary of the United
States embassy in London.
Mr. CarEegie's rectorial address con-
sisted of lengthy study of the COM
parative growth of nations in the paths
of industrial ascendancy with a strik-
ing commentary on their future. In
this speech which was replete with no.
table statistics and important economic
prophecies, perhaps the most remark
able feature was an appeal to Emperor
William to use his influence toward the
eventual creation of the United States
of Europe under the form of a political
and industrial union. In this way
alone, Mr.. Carnegie declared can Eu-
rope conquer the foreign markets or
repel American invasion. France, Ger
many and Russia, who had already
taken joint action against Japan, would
suffice to insure a satisfactory union in
Europe.
THE Car" he continued, having
taken the first step toward the peace
OF the world in The Hague conference,
the other mighty emperor might be i'm
pressed with the thought that it is due
to himself and to Germany to play a
part upon the wider stage OF Europe
as her deliverer from the incubus which
Expresses and weakens her, the appal-
ling, paralyZing fear of war and OF ruin
between members Of her own body.

Eastern and foreign markets-Ac-

Oct. II, the market for Raws Is firm

what this seasons European beet crop
will fall short of that Of last year as
the result of the unfavorable weather
prevailing this season, but the extent
of the shortage will probably remain
uncertain for some time. Mr.. Gieseck
er has given as low an estimate as
5,350,000 tons, which is 1,530,000 tons
short of last years crop, but this es
innate is not generally accepted. Pri-
vate telegraphic advices received state
that LIGHT estimates the European
beet crop at $3.50 600 tons, against last
years crop of 6,S43, 900 tons. Refined
is at present in light demand. The
Alameda Sugar Company has arranged
to ship about $50 tons of beet granu
/ lated sugar by steamer from here to
New York. We understand the Chino
refinery is arranging to make ship
ments by rail. These will be the first
shipments of refined sugar that have
been made from the Pacific to the AZ
