ter of Mrs. e. Eschonda, 7SS Maple

appearance of the couple to the police
last night.
Mrs. Navarro says that her husband
left his home early In the morning,
taking with him all his clothing, CIV
ing the information that he was going
to San Diego for few days.
Shortly afterward. Mrs. Eschonda
called at Mrs. Navarros house and ex-
pressed the belief that her daughter
had left with Navarro. An investiga-
ton was instituted which led the wo-
men to believe the man and girl had
eloped to San Diego.
Mrs. Navarro said last night that the
girl had been a frequent caller at her
home and remembered that her hus-
band had paid her a great deal of
attention.

Special to The Herald.


Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal, Aug. 27.-
A Los Angeles couple, w. H. Sanders
and Miss Anna Marie Sandstrum, had
a difficulty in getting married in this
city yesterday afternoon.
They supposed they had plenty Of
time to secure license, not knowing
that the county clerks office is closed
on Saturday afternoons. When they
betook themselves to the court house
in the afternoon, they found doors
closed against them. A hunt was then
started for County Clerk Pfeiffer, who
was finally located and hustled down
to his office to prepare the much want
ed document. They then hunted up
Justice Thomas. who performed the
ceremony.
Burglars made an attempt to enter
the home of M. f. Cropley at Cotton
last night, but were unsuccessful. Mrs.
Cropley heard them prowling about
the house and then they raised the
window. This aroused her so that she
grabbed pistol and sent shot after
the intruders, who made haste to get
away from the premises.
No clue has as yet been obtained to
the whereabouts OF Harry Ward, the
Redlands robber who broke Jail. From
investigations made by Sheriff Ralph
1t is believed Ward is the man who
committed numerous burglaries In
Redlands last winter and recently, as
he was in the Foot Hill city at both
times.
Coroner Pittman has been unable to
identity the man who committed sui
eide by throwing himself under q
Southern Pacific train near Blooming
ton Friday and his grave will be
marked as unidentified. The evidence
of the trainmen proved eonclusively
that II was case OF suicide, as this

CHILDREN REARED BY
MOTHERS ARE FIGHTERS
They Are Moro Feroclous Than Those
Reared by Fathers, Says a
Professor

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, Aug. 27-"Children who
are reared by their mothers are more
ferocious and dangerous than children
reared by their fathers was raised
by my mother, but If had been reared
by my father I would be less fierce
than 1 am now"
This was the statement made before
his class in anthropology by Prof.
Frederick Starr Of the University Of
Chicago whose matrimonial bureau and
dope club are memories in the lives
of some of the students.
THE man who is reared by his father
has much to be thankful for" said
Prof. Starr. His father is generally
more strict and more firm with hirn
than his mother, who will let him over
run her when he is in the formulative
period of childhood. The man who be-
haves under a fathers discipline gen.
orally is the least pugnacious when he
is older"
Prof. Starr proved his statements by
citing the history of different races and
tribes. He showed that tribes which
left the care and education of the chill
dren solely to the mother were trouble
some and warlike. while those which
gave the father hand in the bringing
up Of youngsters were less anxious for
trouble.
Prof. Starr is a bachelor, and this
fact was commented on by the goods
when the class was dismissed.

RETURNED PATIENTS ARE
0vERCR0WDING HOSPITAL
SERIOUS SITUATION ARISES At
COUNTY INSTITUTION
Effect Of Recent Law Compelling Lo-
cal Authorities TO Care for "Harm-
lessly Insane" Persons Presents a
Problem as to Accommodations

What are the county hospital authori-
ties going to do with the "harmlessIy
insane" patients being returned from
the state institution while the super
visitors are considering the erection Of q
county infirmary7
This is the question that is being
more frequently asked as the forty
cells in the insane wards at the county
hospital are gradually being filled Up
by the return patients"
The FIRST installment Of return pa
tlents' came over two weeks ago from
Patton when three women and one
man were sent to the county hospital
with instructions to hold them until
further orders, as they had been ad-
judged as harmless" at the state in
stitution and could no longer be kept
there.
When these four patients came Il was
thought at the hospital that the bur-
den was rather heavy, but when three
men and one woman we're sent four
days ago with the same instructions It
caused the authorities to think and
figure upon how long 1t would be be-
fore the county institution would be
taxed to its limit.
Inadequate Accommodations
With forty cells, ten of which are In
constant use by persons awaiting trial,
there is scarcity of room for the acT
commodation of harmless patients from
the state institution and IL they con-
tinue to come at the rate of the last
two weeks every cell in the hospital
will be taxed to its limit within two
months.
While forty cells will accommodate a
great number of patients for a few
days while awaiting trial. they can ac-
commodate but comparatively few
"harmlessly insane" patients who have
been in that condition for years and
have no prospect of becoming other
wise.
Serious Situation
The question of care Of these patients
has been taken UP by the county
supervisors but no action has been
taken and in the meantime the county
hospital authorities are in a quandary
as to what disposition shall be made
of the patients IL the present accom-
modations are overrrun.
These "harmlessly insane" persons
cannot be cared for by their friends
because charge of insanity is still
entered against them and they are
under the control of the state, but the
state returns the responsibility of the
patient to the county and maintains
its control of them.
But even If the county officials decide
to build a special institution for these
"haamlessly insane" persons it cannot
be constructed before the county hos
pital is overrun and the officials Of
that institution are. still debating what
to do when there is no more room in
the hospital.

distributing ditches in delivering water to his land, and also it enables him, through being stOckholder in said com pany, to have water brought from the Colorado river and delivered to his company for fifty cents per acre foot. In other words, the water stock fur nishes the use of the vehicle through which water right for speci tic tract of land may be acquired.
 The report of the Secretary of the In- teriOr above quoted from, also estab-
 fishes the standing of the California De- velopment Company as a common car rier engaged in the business of deliver
 ing water to settlers making beneficial use of the same on lands in the United States. The report says "Those who have already constructed canal systems would be fully protected by this arrange ment, they will be allowed to carry the water already beneficial used, mak
 ing reasonable charges therefor as in the past, and would be allowed to ex- tend their systems subject to the ap- proval of the Secretary of the Interior" :" This status appears to have been ac- cepted by the California Development Company, as they claim only the rights of common carriers in relation to the waters of the Colorado river.
 These facts show that no matter what errors were made in the past, nor what wrongs may have resulted, these acts were merely events in the course of our growth, and that now the solid foundation has been reached ald the rights of all parties defined. The Cali fornio Development Company has the right to divert water from the river in its capacity of common carrier, for the settlers on the lands in the United States. The settlers themselves have the "right" to the use of the waters of

thousands of acres of both public and private lands in Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona and California as well as large area in Mexico, are dependant upon a com prehensive development and utilization of this stream, it would be manifcstIy improper to permit further apprOpria- tions by individuals and corr orations, as in the past, because the existence of their improvements will render it more and more difficult to carry out the proper development of the waters of this river unless Congress takes early action to control and regulate the mat ter It is generally conceded that legis- lation is necessary because the lower part of the river being navigabIe, it's waters are not subject to appropriation and notices filed in conformity with the customs of California and Arizona, are not valid. It has been suggested in a letter to you dated March 22, 1904 (reporting on the Daniels billy that the legislation needed is along the line of protect ling all of the interests, and not comforting a monopoly on any one cor poratiOn or interest"
 The passage of the Daniels bill would have given the California Development Company monopoly of the waters of the Colorado river. The report further recommends that Congress enact q law providing that the settlers upon the public lands, who have already put to beneficial use, a part of the waters of this river, have their right to this water confirmed to the extent to which said water has been actually diverted and benefcially used upon lands capable of producing remunerative crops. The water already put to beneficial use
The Imperial press., 1905-04-01

should be devoted to the lands which have been reclaimed and made appurte- nant to them, and that, "further appro- priation of water from the lower Colo rado river should be allowed only with the approval of the Secretary of the In- terior, and all appropriations of water, HERETOFORE or hereafter allowed for irrigation purposes sho lld be appur- tenant to specific tracts of land, and beneficial use should be the basis, the measure and the limit of the right The diversion of water from the lower Colorado river where it is navigable is without authority of law, and in order to protect those parties who are using such waters for beneficial purposes, their rights to the use thereof should be confirmed to the extent of their actual beneficial use upon lands capable of producing remunerative crops"
 From the above it will be seen that the right to the use of water from the Colorado river is not established until the water is benefically used on par ticular tract of land, and that when that is accomplished the right becomes perpetual and is inseparable from the land thus irrigated and reclaimed. It may be urged that even this is not yet enacted into law, because of the naviga- bility of the river at the point where our water is taken out. This cannot be considered as an objection becouse it is within the authority of the Secretary of the Interior in the absence of specific legislation to make rules and regula tions to cover all such matters under authority of Section 10 of the National Irrigation Act, and we can feel sure that his regulations accord with his
