The closing days of each ses- sion of Congress are wasted in filibustering tactics by the minor ity and by members who see pet Legislation doomed to defeat. It were better that our representa- tives and senators showed the same zeal in transacting the pub lie business that they do in secur- ing their election.

that here would be the greates irrigated section of America some day, and I so wrote for the paper that had sent me out. l found the theme an inviting one, and ] wrote of it for the New York Tribune, Post and Commercial, the Scientific American, Phila- delphia Press and other papers.
 One year from the time of my first visit l was employed to take editorial charge of the PRESS, re- maining with it for ten months, until duties outside of business interests made it desirable for me to leave the valley. When l be- gan my editorial work in Imperial there was a small acreage o1 crops growing near the inter, national line, where water haC been first served for irrigation three months before. In ter months I saw the frontier of irr1 gation advance by easy stages fifteen miles northward, and if every way the results of cultiva ton were beautiful crops.
 I have been absent from the valley SIX months. l return to find the frontier of cultivated ter ritory advanced ten miles further orthward and expanding steadi- ly to both the east and the west Where twen ty-eight months ago I did not see d home, probably four thousand people are now gathered, the population today being more than double that of { year ago.

STATEMENT AND A REASON

" lth thLO AoOAN VI ShN A ANATN'S this enters not only a change of ownership, but something of a change of policy. In a purely legitimate way, it has been pub lished primarily in the interest of the various companies which have been developing the re- sources of Imperial valley. Now it becomes d business venture, the particular mission of which is to bring honor, glory and riches to its owner, just as such ventures inevitably do.
 And yet the work. which the PRESS has to do in the future is not greatly different from that it has done in the past. While the paper is free from all leading strings, it feels that the welfare of every individual and every in terest in the valley lies in strengthening the hands of the men who are transforming the country from d desert to thrifty and densely populated section The PRESS has no antagoniSms and no desire nor intention to Ob. struCt any enterprise, but rather to foster and encourage every thing which tends to the better ment of the people of what is destined to be the richest locality in America, the Imperial valley
 While the PRESS has today passed into my keeping, it is inn possible for me to assum personal management of the paper until March IS. Until that date the editorial management will be ln the hands of Messrs. Holt and Pellet, as heretofore.
 And now 1t may not be amiss for me to state the cause of my return to Imperial, for while dc not believe that the world is wait ing in suspense to solve this problem, it may tend to encOur age some persons whose know ledge of the valley is limited.
 In October, 1900, I was sent tC Imperial to study the valley ant the proposed irrigation systen for the Los Angeles Herald. drove from Flowingwell to Blue Lake, some 45 miles, meeting nc sign of civilization except twC we'll drillers on the present site O Imperial, and company of sur veyors. l also inspected thu heading of the irrigation systen on the Colorado river, where work had but just begun. l Wa led to believe from what 1 saw

Memorial Day at Pendleton.

MIR. Editor: The Pendleton Chapter
OF the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy will decorate soldiers graves and
entertain Confederate veterans with
war times hospitality and hOnors by
giving them an old time dinner Satur-
day, May 9th, at PendletOn. Hon. j.
5. Werner, of Columbia, and Prof. MOr-
rison. the historian of Clemson Col
lcge, have accepted invitations TO
make memorial addresses, while the
military and band of Clemson College
will join in with the young ladies and
school children in their solos and beau
tiful ceremonies in honor of the Con-
federate dead.
These ceremonies are very appro-
pirate and impressive, not only show
to the veterans yet with us chat their
struggles in defense Of Southern hon
Ors forty years ago have not been for
gotten, but it also helps to educate the
youth OF today to appreciate the value
of thes famed hospitality and patriot
ism of our Southern people.
A cordial invitation is extended to
the public at large to come out and
bring at least one good dinner for an
old soldier from every family and thus
prove to the world that the patriotism
and hospitality of the noble women
OF the CUnfederacy will never die out
in our day.
All veterans attending are requested
to meet at Farmers Hall at 10 a. m. for
a social rendezvous before going into
the procession. X.

Fire broke out i'll the kitchen OF Mrs.
nj. A. Brock, proprietor of the Ladies'
Store, at II O'Clock tonight, and had
gained considerable Roadway before
assistance could arrive, owing to the
latcness of the hour. In short while
the flames had spread to the storer0Om
which was situated only Il few feet
away.
A stiff wind was blowing and all ef-
forts TO save the building were in vain.
by this time Il general alarm had been
sounded and hundreds Of willing
hands were ut work to save the ada
cent buildings. A portion OF the goods
we're removed. but the loss will fall
heavy on MIS-. Brock.
at one time it seemed that the en-
tire business portion of the town would
he destroyed, but by heroic work the
flames were checked.
birs. Brooks loss on storerOOm and
on goods will amount to about $4,000
or 50. 900, with $1,000 insurance.
AT this hour the fire is under control
and unless the walls of the burned
building fall on the adjacent buildings
no further damage is feared
