tFrom the Los Angeles Times Mid
 winter Edition;l
 It is not generally known, but 1t is nevertheless fact that the late Collis r, Huntington, president of the south ern Pacific Railroad Company was deeply interested in the reclamation and development of the great Colo rado Delta. because such a reclama- ton and development would add mil lions to the wealth of the State, and in that way would also pay tribute to the great railway system, of which he was the recognized head. and for the building up of which he had spent nearly fifty years of the best portion or his life.
 la lS97 soon after the incorporation of the California Development Com pany, Mir, A, II. Heber one of the in- corporators, and then, as now, presi- dent of the corporation, received a let ter from Mir, Huntington, in the course of business, which bears on the enter prise in manner to so fully illus trate the far sightedness of the great hnancier, that we are pleased that we have the opportunity to present a fac simne of this letter to the readers of the Midwinter Times.
 Mir, Huntington saw that If the project should be fully carried out. the results would prove ot great benefit to the country, and profitable financially to those who were interested in it, pro- vided, always, that an intelligent and wise economy and management were observed and an honest administra- ton of affairs maintained"
 He was also of the opinion that the land in the region named" only needed the advantages of good irrigation to make it exceedingly fertile"
Imperial press and farmer., 1903-01-03

Among the publications now being sent out by the company to inqurers is gem, from a typographical point of view, just turned out by The Times Job Department, entitled An Album of the Imperial Settlements" which con- tains about sixty half-tone engravings from photographs of what has been done in the Imperial country during the past two years.
Imperial press and farmer., 1903-01-03

Company, and crops during the past season have been more than satisfac- tory to those who have titled the soil in that naturally fertile field.
 The Imperial Land Company's office in the Stowen Block, this city, is one of the liveliest places of business in Southern California, as we'll it might be.
Imperial press and farmer., 1903-01-03

Mir Huntington has passed to his reward, but the work about which he wrote has been advanced toward com pletion at rate Of progress beyond the dream of the most visionary. The results have been what he predicted, and the honest management is all that he could have desired.
 Nearly a thousand men have taken land under the irrigation system

WONDERFUL PICTURES.
Passion Play at Vinewood Offers a
Rare Opportunity.

Commencing next Monday evening,
September z, the management of Vine
wood park will offer to their patrons
by means of the Kinodrome the produc-
ton of the Horitz Passion Play This
production is after the version of and
written by Paul Grollhessel. and under
the direction of Ludwig Duetsch of
Horitz. Bohemia. The pictures are
splendid reproductions of the ever in
teresting and very thrilling scenes of
the events which heraIded, prepared
That unusual interest will be manifest
ed in the coming engagement of the
Passion Play is surmised from the
fact that wherever these wonderful
pictures have been exhibited thousands
and thousands of people go to witness
them. The audiences usually are some
what different from those seen at the
park, but make up greater proportion
of elderly folks and hundreds of CieVout.
The stay-at-nomes may scott at the
possibility of the dumb show being
worth trip to the park. but they do
not know and cannot realize the ire
mendOus interest which these pictures
create. Nobody thinks of leaving until
Christ has been crucified and has been
resurrected from the dead. The Savior
appears upon the canvas as a human
being. and the persecution which he
endured during his lifetime and his
triumph in the struggle for salvation
of humanity are brought home to mind
and heart with force which neither
spoken or printed words can carry
There is a wonderful lesson for every
body, as well as an experience of a
lifetime, in this Photographic reproduc-
ton OF the great Horitz spectacle.

Monday

Food Inspector Farnsworth is about
sick but says that he will begin on
Monday morning. if able, to test milk
and weigh coal wagons. For this notice
ahead of time. the coal dealers and
milk men should be duly grateful
With coal at almost Sc a ton, ii would
be surprising if so per cent. of the coal
orders are not short weight Yet Mr..
Farnswcrth says that so far as he has
investigated the coal is weighing up ex-
actly as represented. He has not in
vestigated very far. however.
The law gives Mr.. Farnsworth au-
thority to stop a coal wagon anywhere
and any time, and weigh 1t on the city
scales. Mr.. Farnsworth found a lot of
coal dealers giving short weights a year
or two ago, but did not publish their
names for the reason that it would in
jure their business. He has also re-
fused to give out the names of milk
men who embalm their milk, for the
same reason.

JOHN BROWNS WHISTLE.
Kansas Historical Society Wants 1t
for the State Museum.

Washington, Sept. 5.-The silver boat

piped orders to his men while they were
at Harper's Ferry. has been discovered
here In Washington by the officers of
the Kansas Historical society. An eff
fort is being made to secure the instru-
ment for the SOcietys museum.
when Brown was captured the whistle
was taken from him by Lieutenant
Stewart of the regular army, who after
ward became lieutenant general in the
confederacy. Stewart finally gave it to
Colonel Washington. who In turn pre-
scented it to John Cassin, then a well
known lawyer in this city. The whistle
is now in the possession of Mrs. Mary
A Cassin, who lives in Georgetown
Brown pleaded to be permitted to re-
tain the whistle. He told Lieutenant
Stewart that he had had it for a long
time, and he had used it in Kansas for
the same purpose as at Harper's Ferry.
The whistle is about nine inches long,
and in an excellent state of preservation.

FAIR SUCCESSFUL.
Horse Racing, Glass Ball Shooting

Norton. Kan. Sept. 5.-The annual
fair of the Norton County Agricultural
association was held at Elmwood park
beginning Tuesday and ending Friday
The weather has been good during the
time. and the attendance large, espe-
cially on Thursday.
The entries in all departments were
above the usual number, but were not
what they should have been. owing to
the farmers being so busy. Never was
there a time when the farmers were
tied to their work at home as they are
this season. There are no extra men to
hire no matter how badly they are
needed. The stock display was very
creditable, especially the horses. The
races were good each day. but the free

SPEAKS UP FOR CLEVELAND
Chicago Chronicle Urges His Nomi-
nation Upon the Democracy.

Chicago. Sept. SIN a leading edi-
torial the Chicago Chronicle urges the
nomination of Grover Cleveland for the
presidency, declaring him to be the
greatest and most popular living Dem
ocrat, who, If nominated, would poll
every Democratic vote in the country
The editorial says in part:
During his last administration Mr..
Cleveland Identified, himself forever
with three noble ideas which cannot
fail to command the respect of the
Americas people SO long as the republic
shall last.
He stood unfinchingly for public
and private credit.
He stood boldly for the energetic en-
1Orcement of the laws of the United
States. as against mobs and conspira-
cies organized by desperate men on
lines akin to rebellion and revolution
He stood like a rock for the prin-
ciple now accepted by all Democrats
and most Republicans that the power
of taxation should not be used by gov
ernments to fOrtify monOpOlistlc Op-
pressors Of the people.
In the presence of the men whom
Grover Cleveland's retirement has ad-
mitfed to leadership in the Democratic
party-mere agitators most of them,
Socialists and POpulists many of them,
and undoubted revolutiOnists some of
them-the people of the United States
have had an opportunity in recent
Ic4Aio u perceive the DtLWGtD
n constitutional Democrat and a consti-
tutional demagogue.
''Mr. Cleveland is not only the great
est living Democrat; he is also the
most popular of Democrats.
IF nominated for president next
year he would poll every Democratic
vote in the land. His candidacy would
reunite the Democratic party. His
leadership would take the organization
out of the mire of dishonest money.
class hatred. envy, malice and dis
order. His nomination would solidify
Democrats and it would cast out of
the party all the devils of radicalism
and revolution.
The times demand strong and, good
men in public places. Enemies of the
American system are at work every
where with their DrOpa gandas of de-
Htruction. Timid men. ambitious men.
uncertain men. vain and snowy men,
moved by every passing breeze, are not
the men for present conditions. As
never before in our career as a nation
there IS need today of true and cour-
ageous men in office-men who do not
fear to do right. who do not despair of
the republic. That Grover Cleveland is
such man is plainly written in the
tmperishable history of the United
States and in the hearts of the people,"
