ON TO PILOT KNOB
Southern Pacific Bringing in Ties for
 Extension

The Southern Pacific Company is bringing ties to Imperial and piling them up south of town, preparatory to extending the Imperial road to the southward, with the evident intent of eventually reaching Pilot Knob on the main line, just west of the Colorado river.
 The surveyors who have been at work in this section for about six months have completed the survey to Pilot Knob this week, and returned to Inn perial Tuesday evening to do some ad- ditional work here, though It's nature is not yet known.
 It was reported in railroad circles in Los Angeles a few days since that con- tracts for construction on this line would soon be let, but that construction would not begin until fall.
 The situation at present is the exist ence of several survey lines. Starting at Imperial, the survey goes due south, one line branching off to the southeast through the Paringa town site, and on to CaleXico. This is the route first pro- iected, but it is known that the railroad officials do not favor this route. The

while those rails are net heavy trouqh for the rapid transit of the main line, they would answer very well fer q if- neer road for q number Cf !Ct1s, q q it. would not be strange if the company were looking about for place to put them where they would. be of service in feeding the main line.
 And while this work is going on, it may be presumed that the Southern Pacific is preparing to forestaIl any other road which might aim to cross the desert for San Diego. It will be at a point but ninety miles from San Diego, having but about three ffths as much track to lay to bridge the chasm be- tween Yuma and San Diego as any com peting line which might come this way.
 The next two years is apt to see things of importance in railroad con- struction throughout this section, and the people of the desert can wei afford to study the unfolding of the enigmat- ical plans.

Sending Away for Goods

There is probably nothing that citizens of any town do that gives offense to bus mess men more surely than sending out of town for goods. To trade with a competitor in town is recognized as the privilege of every citizen, but to send out of town for goods that could be pro- cured as cheaply at home must be taken as an affront not easily overlooked. And yet business men often offend in this same way. During the last few days three specimens of printed station cry have found their way from Imperial business houses to the Press office, or ders for which had been sent out of town. Whether it is in printing or any common article of merchandise, Imper- ial houses are amply able to meet all re- quirements, and business men ought. not set the example of sending out of town for goods.
The Imperial press., 1903-06-13

last survey made, and the one which is thought to be the line which will be fol- lowed, goes due south from Imperial about six and half miles, where it forks, one line going southeast, crossing the international line near CaleXicO and proceeding on to Pilot Knob, where 1t connects with the main line. At the fork alluded to, there is another line passing west and south of the overflow land in Mexico, through to a harbor on the west coast of the Gulf of California, about 100 miles from Imperial
 What all this implies one can only surmise. The Pilot Knob survey of course can be readily understood, and railroad officials do not disguise their intention to eventually build this road, though there is doubt as to the exact line to be followed.
 As for the gulf survey, it is conject- ured by some persons that it is move to head off the Rock Island from having the shortest route from Atlantic to Pacific tidewater, and giving to the Southern Pacific the shortest rail route to connection with the west coast of Mexico and Central America, connection being made at the head of the gnlf with steamers. Possibly there is something further in sight here. The California and Mexico Land and Cattle Company, owning 650,000 acres of land reaching from the gulf to the international line, may have hand in this move, though the fact is not revealed if it be a fact. Eventually a colonization movement will probably be started on that vast body of land, and the railroad survey may be the first movement in that di rection.
 The Southern Pacific Company is talk ing up on its main line across the des- ert sufficient 62 pound rails to build all the roads surveyed in this section, and

reading it to my critic, have been re- minded that there is very little connec- tion between the subject matterand the

The Imperial press., 1903-06-13

might be mentioned the building of the new railroad to Salt Lake City, which is practically another transcontinental road, and the building of system of inter-urban electric railroads upon which many millions of money will be spent, and which will connect all the principal towns of Southern California with it's metropolis-Los Angeles. We might also mention the building of many fine
 large hotels which are demanded by the fact that Southern California is becom- ing, more than ever before, the tourists mecca and the millionaires ideal winter resort and the further fact that hereto fore the real agricultural part of this end of the State has been confined princi- pally to the PA ,000 acres of irrigated land located between the mountains and the sea, most of which is devoted to the production of luxuries-$22, ,OOO,- GOO being realized from fruit, while only $6,00O, ,000 are realized from wheat, beef and pork. but that now twice that area is being brought under irrigation back of the mountain range, nearly all of which acreage is being devoted to wheat, cattle and hogs-the staples for the maintenance of life.
 In the natural course of human de- velopment it should require two or three years for all these movements to culmi- nate in climax that would require our people to call halt.
 All these developments will tend to stimulate the rapid increase of popula tion and wealth in this favored southern country. But after while there will come a time-and don't any of you al- low this statement to slip your memory when there will be turn in the tide, and fortunate will be he who will be able to raise his mortgage if he has one planted.

Sum Of $4,000 Subscribed to z. M.

The fund for the new buildings Of the

past week, and the subscriptions thus far
reported amount to more than $4,000. An
automobile has been placed at the disposal
Of the committees in charge Of the canvass,
and at all hours Of the day 1t is in use in
calling on various prominent business and
professional men for their subscriptions.
The committees are meeting cordial re-
ception wherever they go.
The progress Of the canvass Is said to be
satisfactory to the officers Of the associa-
ton. The members of the young mems
committee will meet this evening around
supper table at the association building
and report on what has been accomplished
and gather suggestions for continuing the
work. It is stated that the first seventeen
subscriptions received from young men In
the association amounted to over $,OOO-
an average Of over 5000 each. Most OF the
young men who made these subscriptions
are on salaries, and the gifts they will make
will mean much self-denial In many cases.

Bond building is busy place. Special Sec
