by Board Of Trade
Special to The Herald.
REDLANDs, Feb. 14.-At the board
of trade meeting yesterday afternoon
it was decided to establish an infor-
nation bureau in Los Angeles for the
purpose of exhibiting fruit and dis
tributing Redlands literature and or
anges. This is to be continued for
three months and the expense is not
to exceed $780, outside of the exhibits,
which are expected to come in as do
nations. Paul T., Moses will be the
special representative.
The board also considered the Japa-
nese labor problem, which has practi-
cally settled itself, only a compare
lively few of that class remaining.
The committee expressed the opinion
that the resident laborers could settle
the problem themselves by doing SUI
perior work.
For Faster Trains
Resolutions looking to faster train
Angeles were adopted, concluding as
follows:
Resolved, That the Redlands board
of trade hereby requests the Southern
Pacific Co. to install as soon as pos
sible fast train, giving hour and a
half service to Los Angeles from Red
lands, and stopping only at Cotton, On
tario, Pomona and Pasadena junction,
in both directions" To this an amend
ment was made requesting the same
service on both roads, and resolutions
were passed requesting the committee
to communicate with the cities mem
toned for cooperation.

department of the school.
Fatal Accident to Pioneer
John NJ. Doyle, one of the early pio-
neers of this valley, who has served
as keeper of the Cajon tollgate since
the early days, was found dead in his
cabin, apparently from the accidental
explosion of his shotgun in an attempt
to pull it toward him as it was lying
on the table.
The discharge tore open the lungs
and lodged in the bowels, no doubt
producing instant death. He was
found four days afterward by Mart
Thomas, who had been his companion
for two months and was absent at the
time of the occurrence.
Sundry Comments

harm done in this valley by the cold
