Jury.
DEBORAH, Iowa, Feb. 21.-T. J. Gif-
ford, the murderer of H. A. Bigelow, Is
insane. That is what the jurors said
when they returned to Judge Hobson's
court at 10 tclock Saturday night. af-
ter having been out six hours. 1t is
understood that on the first ballot the
jury stood nine to three for conviction,
and the three won the nine over. An
interesting feature is that the prison
er has been committed to the insane
hospital at Independence and will be
under the charge of DR.. Crumbacker,
one of the expert witnesses who de-
clared on the stand that Clifford was
not insane.

New lawnsj new waist patterns at tle New York Store.
 The beautiful display of flew goods shown in Stevenson Bros. show win dows this week has been matter of comment by all. The Stevenson Bros. not only have very tastefully arranged show windows but also very large stock to select from, and a very full line of practically all kinds of goods found in a department store.
 From Dr. F. P. Blake, who has re- gently visited the Palo Verde Valley, we learn that the Colorado River Navi- gation Company is expecting to dredge out the mouth of the Laguna i'll that valley so their boats can enter it from the Colorado river. The Laguna tra- verses the entire length of the valley and is navigable at all points except for perhaps one-half mile at the Colorado river The contemplated dredging will bring the steamboats right to the farms and be great convenience to the set tiers.
 A. S. Mcintyre, an engineer on the dredger at the heading of the Imperial canal, died last Tuesday morning. He, in company with others of the dredger crew, were bathing in the canal when he was seized with cramps, and though rescued by his companions, so large a quantity of the muddy water had been taken into his lungs that pneumonia set in. Dr. Clymer was summoned by telephone, and went down in a skiff with an Indian guide, but arrived too late for his skill to be of any avail. Deceased, though only twenty-one years of age, was skilful mechanic, and his character and disposition were such that he was extremely popular with his companions. His body was shipped to Selma, California, where his parents reside.-Yuma Sun.

Had the dam been completed, it would have served as well to prevent all the damage that has been done to bridges and farms along the course of Salt river near Phoenix.-Times..

NO. 5 MEETING

There was a very impor tant meeting of the stockholders of Imperial Water Go. No. held at Holtville last Thursday. This meeting was for the purpose of discussing the question of an amicable settlement between the stockholders of Imperial Water Go. No. 5 and the California De- velopment Go. It IS suggested that the unsold stock in Imperial Water Co. No. be turned over to No. 5 by the California Devel- opment Co.,, and No. 5 assume all obligation to construct its own irrigating system and settle its own damages, The proposition as presented was looked upon with a good deal of suspicion by the stockholders, as they thought they saw in 1t an attempt on the part of the California Develop ment Co. 10 unload on them a lot of worthless stock that could not be sold at all for any price and restrict them to a lot of rough, gullied out and condemned land to locate it. The proposition as presented was not accepted, but there was a feeling that if Impe- rial Water Go. No. 5 were allowed to locate the unissued stock on the lands in Townships 12 south, the offer should be accepted. There was full and free discus sion, the general feeling being that, any offer of this sort be care fully examined, for the work to be undertaken by No. 5 would be very great and the assets offered as an inducement must be of more than problematical value before the offer should be accept ed. With this understanding a resolution was passed instructing the directors to carefully examine the lands within the present boundary and to insist upon the inclusion of the townships above mentioned in the territory to be covered with water.

THE visit of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce to Imperial this week should result in estab- fishing in the minds of men of commanding power in our com mercial and financial metropolis, a larger comprehension and broader insight into the greatness of Imperial Valley.

velopment and evidences of thrift they saw on every side. These men know of what great cities are builded, and they see in Inn perial Valley a setting and d background from which their great city will reap untold bene- fits. Los Angeles expects to re- main the metropolis of southern California, and expects Imperial Valley to be its dairy and stock ranch. We expect very snbstan- tial benefits to Imperial Valley from the visits of such gentlemen as compose the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. It Is such men who do the truly great things in the development of the west, who stand at the head of its great enterprises, and whose for-seeing eyes can truly measure the future greatness of their great city and of our great Val ley. They can therefor be ex- pected to lend their aid and in- fluence to all movements for the upbuilding and welfare of the Imperial Valley. Hail the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. They are good fellows, every one. Come again when you can stay longer and see more of our embryo empire.

 Big Profit in Real Estate
 The fellow who thinks Imperial Real Estate is dead one, has another guess coming. This town is making a steady and substantial growth and real estate is steadily advancing in value. Recent sales demonstrate this fact to a cer- tainty. The 100 feet from the Thelma hotel to J street was recently sold to Mir. Andre of Santa Ana by it's owner, w. B. Stewart for $1 1850 cash. About two years ago Mir. Stewart bought this property for $425. This is a raise of 450 per cent Ill two years, and we think will compare with Los Angeles or any other place. Mir. Stewart also sold to Beatrice l.. Hughes of Scranton, Pen nsyvana a 25-foot lot on the south side of Eighth street just west of the bank for $425. He paid $100 for this lot years ago. This street is being improved from the depot to G street and no doubt this property will advance rapidly.
 Chamber of COmmerce's Visit
 The Directors of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce visited the Inn perial Valley this week. They arrived on Tuesdays train, going through to Calexico and spent the morning of Wednesday in looking over the country around Calexico and on the road to Inn peral. Arriving in Imperial about noon they were taken in charge by the Imperial Chamber of Commerce and dined at the Hotel Imperial After which drive was taken to look at the adjoining country. The visitors went on to Brawley on the afternoon train and continued their returning journey to Los Angeles on Thursday morning. It is to be regretted that the visitors time was so limited. It is impossible for anyone to secure any more than a superficial idea of the greatness of Inn perial Valley in one day trip. The best farms are many of them off the beaten track and not of easy access. No trip of such short duration can visit the Eastsde, No. 7, or No. 5, or No. G., or No. 8. All that can be seen is a part of No. and No. 4. Our visitors, how ever, were kept busy during the time at disposal, and to man departed with a feeling that Imperial Valley is all right. Those composing the party were: Wm. D. Stephens vice president, Frank Wig gins secretary and the following direct ors of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce: E. P. Boshyshell, A. C. Harper, Frank Simpson, Geo. Arnett, S. D. Sale, Otto Kaiser, Newell Math- ews, c. H. Hummer, G. A. Flood, s, w. Washburn, H. II. Warrington, Ben Kingsbaker, A. l.. Stetson, Geo. Will. cox, F. w.

 THE trial of Dr. K. J. Walker for practicing dentistry without license from the State Dental Board, was held before Judge Banta and a jury last Wednes- day, and resulted in the doctors triumphant acquittal. Dr. Wal- ker has been located in Imperial for more than a year and his work has always been first-class and eminently satisfactory to all his patrons. He is a graduate of the Dental School of the Univer- sity of Nebraska, graduated with high honors and taught in the college for one year. The idea that men of such high attain ments shall be persecuted by such an outrage as the present Cali fornia Dental law is utterly re- pugnant to every high minded citizen, when the conditions of this law are fully understood. This law does not pretend to be a police regulation, for its en- forcement is not left to the peo- pie but is turned over to the sleuths of the State Dental Board who get one half of the money collected for fines. We say out upon all such unholy schemes of graft. The jury took common sense view of the situation and their verdict meets with unani- nous approval. We have no use for laws to keep the best talent and highest citizenship of other states away from ours. we need them and are glad to get them and graft laws must not be allowed to keep them away.

On the same date the total flow of the Colorado river was 4S,25O second feet. The Imperial canal was therefore divert ing about one-ninth of the total flow.
