the motion lost. Kumalae raised the
point that the chairman had voted,
which was contrary to rules. This
participated a discussion on proce-

least peculiar, ending with a defering
consideration of the item until after
noon.

unnecessary suggesting that the
two offices, assistant superintendent
and road supervisor be combined, as
there are host of clerks falling over
themselves in the two offices. He said
such. combination would be in the in
terest of economy. He said $4,000 had
been spent on the Nuuanu bridge on
estimates of $4,000 and now the found
ations were being torn out. He thought
good road engineer would do all the
work and cheaper too.
Kumalae supported the motion, say
ing that there was too much sending
for subordinates and transmission of
orders which could be sent out direct
He said no assistant was needed to
have the orders from the superinten-
dent transmitted to the subordinates.
In important matters the superinten-
dent acted directly, then why have SO
many officers.

spiral pump turned by oxen was used in those days to lift the water from lower to a higher point for the purpose of irrigating the higher lands. This method of lifting water has now been sufplanted by the gaso
 line engine power pump and by it's use much of the dry lands will be placed under cultivation, giving free water to the land owners, as every land owner can have his own plant. Through irrigation there arid west has the greatest future for first-class agricultural investments of any sec tiOn of the Union. The products of a sunny climate are of higher flavor, more luxurious and of greater en- durance than those grown in the cloudy altitude Irrigation and sun shine produce these results.

IMPERIAL, CAL, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2l, 1903.

There is no use talking, the kiss has got to go. The microbe special ist is dead set against it, and now the lawmakers are taking up arms against it.
 A bill has been introduced into the legislature of Minnesota which, ac- cording to the Chicago News, provides that it shall be declared unlawful for one person to kiss another unless the kisser can prove to the satisfaction of the kissee that he is free from con- tagious or infectious diseases. The bill declares, also, that person hay ing a weak heart shall come under the ban of indulgence in kissing and a vio- lation of the bill is a misdemeanor punishable by fine of from $1 to $5
 Just think of being obliged to go to a doctor and get certificate of health to kiss your best girl. What would a poor fellow with weak heart do? He never could kiss at all without paying from $1 to $5 into court for each kiss.
 All that might be hygienic, but it would be very inconvenient, and for the weak-hearted rather expensive.- Pomona Progress

Repeal of Desert Land Law.

Representative of the large cattle growing interests of the west attempt to show that the repeal of the desert land law and the communication clause of the homestead law will, as adyo- cated by the president, operate as a set back to cattle raising and result in a decreased production of beef The repeal of these laws would undoubt- edly work against the grazing inter- ests of some of the big stock and speculative outfits which are fraudu- lently acquiring government lands, but that it would result in less pro duction of live stock is not clear. The settling up of the west with bona fde settlers who would make their homes upon the land and plant thou sands of fields of alfalfa would result in twice the present production of live stock; but if this best land con tinues to be gobbled up by land-grab
 bers as they are being now-at the rate of thirty million acres a year there will shortly be nothing left for

tion laws so far as Southern Califor- mia is concerned should be in the line of perfecting the mutual water com pany plans and not in the way of mak ing a radical change which would start the wheels of litigation in mo- ton again to ascertain what old rights had been interfered with and what new rights had been established.
 The mutual water company plan gives satisfaction to the people. The laws governing these corporations might be amended to good advantage and it would be a good idea for the mutual water companies of Southern California to hold a convention that should be composed of one delegate from each corporation that should form a commission for codifying and amending the laws now touching on the work of this class of corporations
 A radical change in the water laws of California should be avoided.

IrrigatiOn-the Forward Cry.

The system of irrigation is as old as the hills, and yet the richest and most fertile soil of the United States has been untouched because they are dry lands. More than 2000 years B. c. the Pharaohs in Egypt caused the Egyptian deserts to become blooming gardens by system of irrigation which has never been surpassed The results of this move spread through
 Arabia, Persia, Mesopotamia, India, China, Asia and other countries, where irrigation has been the main support of the people. In the valley of the Pc alone there are over 600, ,000 acres under irrigation, which gives a yearly income to the landlords of $4,15O,0O in rents. A novel invention called the

dends because there is never any profit. The stockholders get their dividends in the way of cheap water instead of paying a profit to some capitalistic combination.
 This system is elastic. A mutual water company can be made to fit any com mbination of conditions that may be found without violating the basic prin- ciple on which it is founded,
 A mutual water company can own it's own source of supply and thus have no one stand between the irriga- tor and the water as it falls from the clouds or springs from the earth, or it can own it's own distributing system and distribute the water under it's control to it's stockholders after paying for having the water deliv- cred to it's distributing system by some water corporation or individual. Sometimes the one plan is preferable and sometimes the other is best. The last-named plan was the one adopted at Imperial because the other was not feasible.

Mutual Water Companies.

Southern California has developed a system of water corporations which are the outgrowth of the necessities of the case.
 This system was known years ago as the Holt system and was adver- tised as such in San Bernardino county. Afterwards this class of water corporations was designated after the plan of the system instead of the author, and they were called mutual water companies because the stock of these companies was owned by the people who owned the land to be irri- gated in proportion to the acreage of each-there being allotted usually one share of stock to each acre of land.
 Mutual water companies are CO., operative in character and are formed for the purpose of furnishing water to their stockholders only at cost. These corporations never declare any divi-

Large Acreage Planted.

The Cameron Lake Cattle Company have a large tract of land under I'm perial Water Go. No. 6 system west of Cameron Lake and also another large tract west of Mesquite Lake and north of Imperial. The company has commenced very active operations in the last-named tract, which is known by the name of Keystone ranch. On this ranch the company has already put in $40 acres of wheat, SO4 acres of barley, 75 acres of oats and 100 acres of Kaffir corn, making a total of 1919 acres-nearly three sec tions.

The Wisconsin Blue Grass Land
Company of Baldwin, Wis, will open
an Office in Rhinelander within n few
days. They are going to retail their
land in Oneida and Villas counties this
summer and will make their head office
N this city for the two counties.
Their office will be in Shepard's on
Davenport St.
Their manager is Olaf Rosen, the
we'll known land man, who placed set
tiers on most of the vacant land in St.
Croix and Polk counties the later
years. -Rhinelander Vindicator.
The opening of the above office
the Blue Grass Land Co. will make no
difference with their Office now opened
here and being under the manage
ment of Mr.. Dan Graham. The COM
pany owns about 10000 acres near
Rhinelander, which will be disposed
of through the Rhinelander Branch
office, but it would be very expensive
in fact out of the question, to discon-
tinue the office here and disposed OF
all the companies lands in and around
Eagle River from the Rhinelander office
The Blue Grass Land Co. are making
arrangements to handle large inflex
of settlers this summer, and in fact a
larger number is expected to locate
here, than ever before. Let the good
work continue and we will soon have
one of the finest farming counties in
the state.
