Tributes of Respect and thei,.
Publication.

Tributes of Respect ana their
Publication.
The attention of persons desir-
ing tributes of respect published
in The News is called to the
standing announcement in this
paper to the effect that such
publications must be paid for.
When a death occurs the fact is ,
of course, published free of
charge, being a matter of news
and full particulars of the life
and character of the deceased
are given when known to the
editor. But later on, when it is
desired by friends or relatives or
organizations of any kind to pay
tribute through the columns Of
the paper to the memory of their
beloved dead, they are advised to
submit their manuscript to the
business manager, who will in
form them what its publication
win cost.
1t will readily be seen why
the printing of tribute of re.
spect should be paid for. 1t can
not be considered a matter of
news, for the death of the person
has already been duly chronicled
in the paper. 1t is usually a
personal or family matter and of
no special interest to the general
public. Such being the case the
party or parties desiring It's pub.
lication should be willing to pay
at least the actual expense there
of.

The effect of this steady flow of a large stream of water has been to dredge out a channel from the Colo
 rado river to this Valley, which is now so deep and of scch grade that there is no question whatever about our beng able to get the water from the river to this Valley: And the silt problem is settled too, for the fall is such that it can never clog up and impede the flow. The late foods have been beneficial to us in number of ways. The washing of the deep channel and elimination of the silt problem and settling forever all question of our ability to get the water from the Colorado river is only some of the benefits. .ese matters are already certain and can be counted on. Now if, as result ot the future deveI- opments arising from these floods, the river changes it's course and we are enabled to get the canal onto American territory, we can look upon this flood as one of those blessings in disguise which we failed to recognize till after 1t was gone. As it is, the flood has dredged such channel as to forever dispose of two of the bugaboos with which we used to be threatened. name ", inability to take che water out of the river on account of not having biz enough canal, and inability to conduct it to our lands owing to the prevalence ol silt and cIOgging of the canal. These two ghosts have been laid, and it is admitted that while they haunted us it made some people pretty nervous. However, they are things of the past, now obstacles that have been overcome. and the end is not vet so far as the possibilities of the Colorado river to solve its own problems are concerned. Now the work of making permanent headgates and constructing levees along the Colorado river, of such highth and stability as will control the waters here after, will be taken up by the California Development Company and foods, so lar as they relate to this Valley and threaten it with damage, can, with the subsistence Of tfiis one, De $ ct,ilsi..,s., 10 the limbo of the things that were, but are no more

Washing Out of. Salton Channel

Anyone familiar with the Saltnn chan nel of previous years knows hat from point about two miles north of the Mckim ranch to a point about two miles north of Brawley, /, or for d distance of about eight miles. the river had very little channel; spreading out into Mes quite lake, French lake, and overflowiny the surrounding country whenever there was a surplus flow of water.
 In an endeavor to save these lake bot toms and the joining lowlands from overt1owing and to recover them for farming, the California Development Company, Last year made canal from a pointtwo niles north of Mckim's s ranch straight north'for about five miles, and turned the Safton into it for this dis tance, thus keeping #: gut of the lakes and lowlands above referred to.
 This canal was dug to carry.5OO cubic feet per second, as that was believed to be ample for any requirements that would ever be placed upon it. When the floods came and the dam at No.. 5 heading was taken out it turned a much larger volume of water than had been expected down the Salton and this new channel began to wash deeper and wider. and during the extreme fl bw of water in this c!lannel 1t was carrying , ,500 second feet, or eleven times whatit was ex pected to carry. This immense flow of water soon began the, work of -lr~dying tle channel deeper and wider and quickly formed an overpo,fr, over which. tt.e w;,ter poured, dredging out d channel about 80 feet wide and nl.re than 20 feet deep. i. ..:.+ >-.5x
 This has cut back up the channel fer about four miles already and is .ciliitine away rapidIy. It has already reached a point that insures the conn plete drain age and reclamation of French and Mes quite lakes aud itll the lowlands around, them, and it gives to the people in the north end of No. , d ceitajn means of drainage for their lands.
 Tllis cutting will continue oli. up.tlle, stream as long as the flood continues and thereafter, wlienever. there is any water fiowing%in the.Salton, it will form complete drainage for ail1tle lowlaIlds and lakes thefeby;improving these lands many thousands of dollars in value. The flood waters have made money for .tliese people by the thousands and solved problem they had given up in despair.
