the entire valley with the individual
rights of the ranchers, and thus have
an absolute title to all of the water.
"Under these conditions it would
be impossible for such case as now
exists in the San Fernando valley to
arise. No one would have the right to
settle in the valley, as the land would
belong to the city, and if anyone did
settle there they would be driven out
just as they would If they should try
to squat in one of our parks.
"All of these points have been ex-
planned by Superintendent Mulholland,
City Attorney Mathews and others.
The fact that the valley will be unin-
habited, except by the men caring for
the water and Fred Eaton's cattle, will
prove a great benefit to the city, as It
will insure the water supply against
contamination from human sources, the
most dangerous contamination that can
arise"
: Committees representing the chamber
of commerce, the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' association and the NUM-
sipal league are investigating the
proposition to bring the water from
the Owens valley into Los Angeles.
These committees have held one ses-
sion with superintendent Mulholland
and the water board and are carefully
going over maps and other data regard
ing the flow of water, it's quality and
other pertinent considerations. 1t is
probable that the investigation will
continue for several days, at which
time report will be made to the
public.

statement on this matter, for I have
been heart and soul in the proposition
from the first. We must prepare for a
population many thousands greater
than We now have and the matter of
expense is now one of secondary con-
sideration."
Mayor McAleer: IT spent ten days
in careful study of the situation with
the water commission upon the ground
and am of the opinion that not only is
this desirable. but it is imperative. 1t
is but question of time when we will
have a population of 25OOOO people in
Los Angeles and will have reached the
limit of our water supply. We must
increase that supply or stop growing.
The matter of expense should not be
considered for an instant. San Fran
cisco is even now being forced to con-
slider the spending of $4S,OOO,OOO for a
supply not one-third as large as the
one we have under considera ton
Argues for the Project
There appears to be doubt in the
minds of some of the peopleof the city
as to what effect the taking of water
from the Owens river by the city will
have upon the people living in the
valley" said an official of the water
department yesterday.
"Of course the recent trouble with
the ranchers Of the San Fernando val
ley makes this point more prominent.
but the cases are not analogous. In
the first place there are but few people
in the Owens valley, and taking the
water will only affect the lower half.
"There is one village of perhaps 300
persons and a few scattered ranchers.
The soil of the valley below Fish
springs, which marks the northern
boundary of the land purchased by the
city, is not productive. 1t is only fair
grazing land Several attempts have
been made to colonize this section of
the valley and have all failed.
There is an abundance of water for
irrigation and it is freely used. but
without much result. This is one rea-
son that more people do not live there.
OF course if the city buys the water,
as 1 believe it will, it will depopulate
this portion of the valley. But the city
will buy more than the water, it will
buy the land. 1t must do this to get the
water. You do a man no harm by buy-
ing his farm at fair price.
Removal of Dams
when the rights are purchased the
dams will be torn out and the water no
longer diverted into the big irrigating
bitches, and it will flow on down its
natural course. If rancher who owns
a right, to say of 100 inches, declines to
sell to the city or the city should, for
some reason, neglect to buy his land
he will not be molested. In fact he
cannot be molested so long as he owns
the land with it's water rights.
even though the water was being
brought into Los Angeles he would still
have the right to his 100 inches and
could divert it for irrigation purposes
rs he chose. The city will probably buy

STATE BOARD MAKES CHARGES

Been Guilty of UnprofessionaI
conduet-Husband Shot
While Resisting Arrest

On an allegation of unprofessional
conduct, the license of DR.. Jessie c.
Aldrich of Los Angeles was revoked
yesterday by the state board of medical
examiners and a copy of the resolution,
to go into effect Immediately, was filed
with the county clerk.
The action is a result of a recent in.
vestigation made by representatives Of
the state board among the x-ray and
electric practitioners of Los Angeles
and other suspensions may follow.
DIR. Aldrich has offices on South
Spring street and has practiced medi-
cine there for several years. She was
absent from her Office yesterday after
noon but an attendant stated that no
notice of the revocation of license had
been served on the doctor and that any
charge regarding unprofessionaI con.
duct in that particular instance was
false.
Widow of Elderton AIdrich
Mrs. Jessie Aldrich, against whom the
complaint is filed, is the widow of DR..
Elderton W. Aldrich, the former X-ray
specialist of Los Angeles who was killed
in fight with detectives while resist
ing arrest several years ago.
The killing occurred May 4, 1902, in
the Doctors offices at Fourth and Broad
way. A short time previous complaint
had been filed by William B. Farrer,
an officer from Illionis, who was here
with requisition papers for the arrest
of Aldrich.
Detective Hawley of the local police
force was detailed to serve the rendi-
ton papers and make the arrest. When
the officer entered the room in which
Dr. Aldrich was and made known his
errand a shooting followed in which
Hawley was shot in the back. Aldrich
was shot in the stomach and in the
face. It was asserted that one of the
bullets was fired by Capt. Bradish and
Los Angeles herald., 1905-08-23

the other was fired by Aldrich, when
his gun was knocked from his hand.
Suits for the settlement of the large
estate left by the physician are still
pending in the local courts.

At length she decided: first. a box

that would never be ended. and, third,
little doll dressed like fairy, to remind
her of her visit.
