Los Angeles proposes installing gi-
gantic pipe line project for the purpose
OF guarding against shortage in the
water supply when the population of the
palmy metropolis of Southern Califor.
pia is one million. The scheme is to
bring the pipe over deserts and through
mountains with water source in the
heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains.
1t is estimated that the project will en-
tail an expenditure of S23,OO0000. Los
Angeles is cheap city-eyen worse.
it is a boom city. We are reluctant
to disturb these fond dreams of mill
ion population. but before Los Angeles
may house that number of people, it
must take about half of the twenty
three millions and install some good sew
ers to carry off the surplus water fol-
lowing a rain storm. In January it
is a common thing to wade through
foot of water at the corner of West
Third and South Spring streets, merely
because the sewers Of this enterpris-
ing city are utterly inadequate.

Some Railroad Talk.
[Andersou Mail, June 80 I

JUNK
Frederick A. johnson, vice president
and general manager of the Chattanooga
Railway Co., is in the city, having just
returned from trip inspecting the coun.
try around Westminster and along the
Chattooga river.
AS is generally known, and has been
published in the Daily Mail, Mr. John
son is from Chicago. He has beon in
and around Anderson for several months,
working in the interest of new railroad
that is proposed to be built from Chatta-
nooga to Anderson, and then on to
Charleston. Attempts have been made
to interview him by newspaper men re-
peatedly, but he has begged off every
time, saying he was not yet ready to talk
for publication. He would always say
that newspaper publicity at this stage
might interfere with his plans, and him
der the work he was trying to accom-
plish, and for this reason the newspap-
ers have had very little to say about him,
although they have kept in close tonch
with him.
To-day Mr.. johnson gave his first in
terview, and he promised to give others
very soon, outlining his plans in full, and
telling how it is proposed to build the
road.
To-day he said he had had very sat
isfactcry trip. The line, he said, be-
tween Anderson and the mountain foot
hills is entirely practicable, traversing,
as 1t does, the famous Piedmont belt at
the apex of the ridge which divides the
streams flowing into the waters of the
Seneca and the Tugaloo rivers, one of
the most productive regions in the
Southern country. The old route be-
tween Anderson and the Chattooga river,
by way of Westminster, was surveyed
several years ago in the interest of o
road to be built from the Northwest to
Charleston, and Mr.. johnson is we'll
pleased with it.
1.-THE building of the road through this
section," Mr.. johnson said, "as a por-
tion of the contemplated line from Chat
tanooga to Charleston would ccomplish
extraordinary results for Westminster
and Anderson, because of the many re-
sources yet to be developed throughout
this very fertile belt. and the accompa-
nying increase in business and price of
land which would inevitably follow in
this great cotton.growing region"
Mr.. johnson said his investigation of
tho Westminster route thus far was of a
preliminary character only, and that a
further and more thorough inspection
will be made in the near future. The
citizens of Westminster are accordingly
on the qui vive, decided interest hav-
ing been manifested, especially among
the business element, who fully realize
the value and Importance to them of
this project.
Mr.. johnson leaves this afternoon for a
business trip to New York. He will be
away for several weeks, and no says that
upon his return he will probably be able
to give out an interview telling every
thing about his railroad scheme that
anybody will want to know. Mr.. John
son says the road is going to be built.
