Corporation Is Organized With $OOO0OO Capital Send
Display of Products to Southern Republics in Effort
to Establish Trade Relations With Los Angeles

the movement for an independent
steamship line, writes as follows:
ITO make this proposition pay, would
depend considerably upon the merch-
ants of Los Angeles, as they would
have to get their drummers out through
this part of Mexico and build up
trade, as 1 am informed by supposedly
reliable parties that Los Angeles could
compete with San Francisco for the
commercial business.
''If this is fact, 1t could no doubt
build up an enormous trade, as I am
safe in saying that during the past
year the tonnage from San Francisco
to Mexican ports north of Mazatlan
has increased fifty per cent. This alone
shows that San Francisco is awake to
the commercial interests of the south
ern coast"
Passenger Business
Few citizens Of Los Angeles real
ize the enormous passenger traffic now
existing between Mexico and this city"
said local capitalist yesterday.
Grains seldom enter or leave the city
without a large percentage of Mexican
passengers aboard With high rates and
a roundabout route with the burdens
of second class accommodations, this
traffic is remarkable for its proportions
with direct steamship line, this
traffic would be increased and natives
~ o+ yha
heard of Los Angeles would join the
throngs who annually visit Southern
California. They do not come as paup-
ers, but remain at home until they save
sufficient funds for the trip and stay
until they spend their money.
"The scheme of sending an advertis-
ing ship down the coast Is an excellent
one, and is certain to bear fruit. Busi-
ness will result and trade relations with
the southern republics will be in
evitable."
When informed last\ night of the
formation of the company to send a
floating exposition" to the tropics, AS
sistant Secretary Gurley of the cham
ber of commerce said:

that is going little farther away.

Provision has been made for the immediate extension
of system Riverside with doubetrack line that
will give fifteen minute service between that city and
the other points. Another line is assured extend
westward from San Bernardino to Upland, passing
through several thriving towns.
Of transit expansion referred to comprises
the choicest part of the great orange belt Three
railways already tap the whole distrct-the Southern
Pacific the Santa Fe and the Salt Lake. But the citrus
fruit business is conducted in small land holdings
usually from five to twenty acres and electric
vice especially adapted to the needs of the people
on all the lines in operation projected in the

convenience will be afforded to growers in being able
to send their fruit to the packing houses by instead

There is doubt that network OF electric lines
will develop in the orange belt working steadily toward

BIRMINGHAM HAS
 AN ITALIAN GARDEN.

Birmingham has her first Italian gar den-a little dream of a place right Tn the very heart of a net work of street car tracks and tall buildings. In the rear of the building erected by the Realty com pany, through a corridor of white marble, out in summer parlor, then you come to an ideal Roman garden where the vines are beginning to cling to the walls about the court and bright colored colius are peeping their way through the warm earth. The plan of the little garden is entirely Romanesque. the symmetry, the beauty of straight lines, and the grace of an arched court.
 The urns have not yet been put in place, but they are to hold growing plants and win be most ornamental. The flower boxes are to be in terracotta, and by the time the foliage covers them and the vines hide the outlines of the walls, the garden will be complete. In the matter of civic improvement the little Italian garden is an object lesson to all of Bir- mingham.
 What if every owner of a building was concerned enough to plant a few vines about his walls, and to put flower boxes about his windows.
