DESERT AUTOMOBILES
San Diego and Imperial May Be
 Easily United

Supervisor Jasper, who travelled by automobile from San Diego to Jacumba to study the possibility of establishing a regular line connecting the two towns, has grown enthusiastic over the outlook, declaring that there only remains about thirty miles of road to be oiled to make the entire road from Imperial to San Diego passable by autos.
 The Press some weeks since told of the possibilities of an automobile line of this character, and now that Mir. Jasper has taken up the matter and is urging 1t on the people of San Diego some develop. ments may be hoped for.
 There is good reason to believe that the automobile and electric car systems are at a point of reorganization. In Germany "trackless trolley" line, which amounts to a trolley "automo- bile,' has been made a success, and possi bly something along that line will be best for this country. On another trend, it is claimed that Edison's storage battery will soon be on the market at prices which will place the automobile within the reach of very large class of people,
 Imperial vaaley, in the course of very few months, will have ah. abun- dance of electric powers developed from the canals, to drive all the cars and automobiles which can be Ised iD this section. These cars might take the form of trackless trolleys, following a series of wires stretched from this town to San DiegOs OF of electric automobiles with storage batteries, having electric supply stations at various points between the towns. Or for the time being gasoline motors might be made to drive the auto mobiles successfully.
 Under any circumstances, there is no room to doubt that the world is steadily progressing in the way of rapid and cheap means for transportation of pas sengers and freight outside ef steam railroads, and the country from Imper- ial to San Diego is especially inviting, as a line would have no railroad com- petition, while the quantity of business ayaila ble isgreat.
 The San Diego Chamber of Commerce has taken up the matter of the Imperial automobile line, and meeting of the directors is thus reported in the San Degan-Sun:
 Good roads was the topic of discus sion at the meeting of the board of di- rectors of. the chamber of commerce yesterday, and the action of the super vIsorsfending toward the construction of better thoroughtares particularly with the idea of automobile travel, was given unanimous endorsement. The investigation of the proposed line to Imperial was particularly referred to as a praiseworthy step. The discussion arose incidental to letter from E. w. Scripps regarding communication re- ceived by the chamber from c. L. Low man, secretary of the highway commits sion of Los Angeles county, and trans mitted to him by Secretary Wood.
 "Mr. Scripps referred particularly in his communication to the proposed Inn perial route. It was in part as follows
