Garden city Of the World.

September 9TH the city of Los
Angeles voted almost unanimously
in favor of the purchase of the
water rights in the Owens valley.
1t is the purpose of the city to
bring the water of the Owens
river a distance of $40 miles
through a conduit of reinforced
concrete. The river will furnish
the city with 10000 inches of
water and will enter San Fernsn.
do valley at an elevation of some
1000 feet and by seepsge it will
bs equivalent to $4,000 inches
enough for town of 1000, 600
population.
1t is proposed to extend the city
limits north some 90 miles and
south and west to the SEA and east
to San Gabriel river, covering
about 900 square miles of terri.
tory IN Greater Los Angeles.
There will be sufficient water
when the project is completed for
all purposes, including irrigation.
TO water this area and as the sys-
tenn will be under city manage
ment it is deemed best to bring
the whole territory under one gov
eminent. somewhat after the plan
Of Greater New York. The en-
lsrged city will take IN Pasadena,
Long Beach and all the coast
towns which with the present Los
Angeles will give Greater Los
Angeles a population 100000.
The Los Angeles Of the future
will be city without . parallel in
all the earth in time. 1t will be
unlike any other American city,
for il will retain the flowers, or
chsrds and lawns, the invigorAting
free air from the ocean, the bright
sunshine aud plenty Of elbow
room. 1t will not become con.
gestsd - it has the best and most
complete street car system in the
world.
The cost OF this water system is
estimated at s2l 100000, and when
completed will he worth three
times the cost.
Los Angeles has live chamber
Of commerce that does things. /,
10 reaching out for manufacturing
industries, wholesale houses and
now has every trans. continental
line OF railroad at its doos. The
hsrlor at San Pedro is being pre-.
pared to receive the largest ships
