Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases kave their begin

by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

engagements MT. Meserve was unable
 to submit his completed draft of this agreement to Mir. Ward, the attorney
 for the Water Users Association, until Thursday noen, August II. Mir. Ward
 prepared his amendments to and changes in this agreement and had these ready on Saturday, August Is.
 All minor differences between the at torneys as to the contents of this agree ment have been settled between them, but there are three vital questions upon which Mir. Heber and his attorney, Mir. Meserve, insist, and which would not
 be conceded by Mir. Ward, as attorney for the Water Users Association. These three questions were presented to and passed upon by the Water Users Asso- citation at it's meeting here Monday. They were as follows: party shall have right to select par tisan arbitrator of his own choosing, whereas the Water Users Association insists that the arbitrator chosen by each party shall be able to qualify as a juror; that is he shall be an absolutely dislnterested person with no entangling relations with either party, as stated by Mir. Meserve, Mir. Heber's attorney, at the public meeting held in Imperial July 25, 1901. At the meeting Monday the Water Users Association deter

A CALEXICO HOME

Below is a picture ot the Calcxico and Imperial Avenue, as it appears in front of the beautiful home of Mir. Y. Cant, about mile north of the center of the town of Calcxico, (the town site extend ing clear to his place.) The scene looks like an old one, from the size of the trees, (cottonwood,) some of which are about twenty feet high, but strange to say it is all new, those trees having grown there since March 1903, now less than twenty months ago. They were not rooted trees, either, when they were planted, but just twlgs stuck in the ground by MT. Cant. fact that we'll illustrates the fertility of the soil. The qnickening effect of plenty of water also has something to do with it, for they are on the ditch border.
 Mir. Cant moved to this place about March 1 1902, and has had the fore sight to acquire there n section of land. This he has improved as Il general

Mir Oxnard is reported to be anxious to build sngar factory in Mexico, and hen-c his particular in- tcrest in this locality, for the line is but Il mile away, and both sides of the border filled with just such good land as this of Mir Gant's.
 Mr. Cant also has grapes, which have done we'll and maturcd good fruit, even in the second year.
 There are trees on the place, not shown in the picture, which were put aut year earlier, and which Mir. Cant thinks are fully thirty feet high. So much for Imperial sunshine, water and soil.

Committee Offer Amendments Mr. Heber Terms Which Are | Rejected--Negoiahons Apparently All Off,

The weeks events seem tO be a Water loo for Government Ownership. The Negotiating Committee of the Water Users Association met here Monday aud held a spirited discussion lasting through the day, of which they gave out the following for publication:
 As the property to be valued belonged to tfe California Development Company the drawing up of the original draft of the articles of arbitration was left to Mir. Mescrve, the attorney for the Cali fornia Development Company. Owing to numerous pressing court and other
The Imperial press., 1904-08-20

Hllhed tD insist upon such nOn-partI- san board or no arbitration at all.
 Second-Mr. IIeber insists, and the
 proposed agreement drawn by Mir.
 Meserve provides, that the value of the California Development Company's plant shall be appraised first, and such appraisement shall be approved by the United States and the price ,,afd before the question of the appraisernent of damages is taken up at all by the arbi- trators, and that the total amount of the damages shall not exceed $250, 900, whereas, the Water Users Association insist that all evidence, both upon the question of price and the question of damages shall be heard and concluded before any argument IS made to them or award made by them upon either question, all to the end that the arbi- trators may know fully, before fixing a price on the system, how incapable it is of meeting existing contracts and of de- livering the water to where the water users are entitled. This position was adhered to by the Water Users Associ- aton at its meeting Monday, with this alternative, viz: That if this proposi- lion is not acceptable to the California Development Company and such com pany insist on deferring the damage ar bitration till after they have received the price for their system, then the Water Users Association shall have the option of receiving f250 900 in full settlement of the damage claims (not to exceed. however, one-sixth of the entire sum paid the California Development Company for its system,) or if preferred by the Water Users Association the question Of damages shall then be sub mitted to arbitration and the award of the arbitrators accepted in lieu of the f250. 900.
 Thrd-Mr. Heber declines to agree that the present market value" of the property shall be the criterion adopted by the arbitrators in the valuation of it's canal system, water rights, etc., where as, the Water Users Association insist that this is the only criterion of valua- ton known to the law and is uniformly adopted by the courts in all condemna- tion proceedings. The Water Users Association decided to insist upon this criterion of value. By 'present market value" is not meant, however, such price as the property would bring at forced sale under the hammer, but what an intending buyer would pay for the property, Ca reasonable time being allowed to find such buyer and in coming to their conclusion the arbitra- tors may take into consideration the present and prospective earning power of the property, the cost to construct, acquire or reproduce it, deterioration of plant, strategic position, past history

EXTRACTS FROM MESSAGE.
The Only Question Is To Build An
IsihmIan Canal.

Washington, Jan. IL. = President
Roosevelt s to congress concerning Pan
anna, included these paragraphs:
l hesitate to refer to the injurious
insinuations which have been made of
completely by this government in the
revolutionary movement in Panama
They are as destitute of foundation as
of propriety. The only excuse for my
mentioning them is the fear lest I'M
thinking persons might mistake for
acquiescence the silence of mere self
respect. 1 think proper to say, there
fore. that no one connected with this
government had any part in preparing,
melting, or encouraging the late revo-
luton on the Isthmus of Panama, and
that. save from the reports of our mil
itary and naval officers, no one con-
nected with this government had any
previous knowledge of the revolution,
except such as was accessible to any
person of ordinary intelligence who
read the newspapers and kept up a
current acquaintance with public af-
fairs.
Meanwhile, the only question now
before us is that of the ratification of
the treaty. For it is to be remembered
that failure to ratify the treaty will
not undo what has been done, will not
restore Panama to Colombia, and will
not alter our obligation to keep the
transit open across the isthmus, and to
prevent any outside power from
menacing this transit.
In conclusion let me repeat that the
question actually before this govern
ment is not that of the recognition of
Panama as an independent republic.
That is already an accomplished fact,
The question, and the only question,
is whether or not we shall build an
isthmian canal
