COUNCIL To TAKE
Up BIC OPTIONS
RICKEY RANCH DEAL WILL BE
SETTLED
Another Step in the Work of Acquiring
Rights In Owens Valley viii
Be Taken at Today's
Session

A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil will be held at o'clock this after
noon to take action on the options
on the Owens river water lands. The
cash discount on the options, If taken
UP before January l. will amount to
$4,000, and the city solons believe that
now that the city has received the
money from the first bond issue it is
better to use it for the purpose of TAX
ing up the options rather than to lie
In the city's valuts and pay interest
on it.
The options which it is expected to
settle at this evenings meeting are
those of the Hickey ranch and about
twenty riparian rights. The hickey
ranch is one of the most important of
the city's holdings in the Owens valley.
1t contains about $4,000 acres, lying di-
rectly in the valley, and cut through
by the Owens river bed. In addition
to the Owens river there are several
mountain springs on the land that
make it a valuable acquisition to the
city's water holdings.
1t was through the purchase of this
ranch that Fred Eaton secured his
mountain land in Long valley, near
Bishop, and several thousand head of
cattle. Before Mr.. Eaton had any as
surance from the city authorities that
Los Angeles would take up the man.
moth water project he secured options
on the Hickey ranch at his own ex-
pense, spending $4,000 for the purpose.
Mr.. Eaton then broached the project
to the city authorities and told them
that they could have as much of the
Hickey ranch as they thought they
needed at the same price that he had
paid for it, $40 an acre, and that he
would take the rest. They concluded
that it would be better for the city
to own the entire ranch, and agreed
tn buy it at this figure. Mr.. Eaton was
$4,000 out of pocket for his option
money, and to reimburse him the city
allowed his cattle on the ranch and
some mountain land in Long valley
Mr.. Eaton now has a lease on the
Hickey ranch and feeds 5000 head of
cattle on it. AS the land will be of
little value to the city, except for the
riparian rights 1t carries, Mr.. Eaton eX-
poets to continue as a lessee of the
ranch. paying the city fair sum for
the grazing privileges.

In a Glass by Himself.

So far Us I have been able to learn,
after eighteen months association with
the Japanese, he stands in a class by
himself in this respect. His duties as
chief Of staff would tax the energies and
abilities of most men, but this man not
only. shirks no military duty, but is
at the same time conducting the gov
ernment Of the far-off island of For
mosa, of which he is the governor
general. For hard work, depth and fer
tility Of resources he has not his coun-
terpart in the whole hardworking jap
anese army, if in the world, today.
Next in Importance to the chief Of
staff himself is his vice-chief, Major
General Fukushima. AS chief Of staff
to the general commanding the Japan
ese contingent at the relief of Peking,
Fukushima greatly distinguished him
self. He is man Of great polish and
profound intellect, has travelled all
over the far east and speaks half a
dozen languages with equal fuency. It
is he that is responsible in very large
measure for the Japanese knowledge Of
China, the Chinese and Manchuria. The
general himself has made no less than
thirteen extensive trips into China and
uses the language like a native. Nomi-
nally he Is in charge Of the communi-
cations and information department Of
the entire army, actually he does even
more. He has himself Travelled all
Manchuria and to him is largely duo
the profound knowledge which our
army has of Manchuria topography.
Like many of the other great Japan
csc generals, Fukushima had sons in
the army. One of them is one of Nogi g

How "AIl Men Are Born Equal"

How "AIl Men Are Born Equal"
The woman born beautiful doesn't
bother to educate her intelligence, is
spoiled by flattery, is unable to hold
the men she attracts; the woman
born homely is driven to develop her
character and her mind, and so more
than overcomes her handicap as
against her pretty sister. The man
born clever loses because he wins too
easily and has not incentive to that
sustained effort which alone achieves
success; the man born fslow" de-
velops patience, assiduity, balance
and, best Of all, tenacity.
It comes near to being a universal
rule that strong points and weak ones
Just about Offset each other In any
human being at the start, and that
the development is matter for the
man himself to determine. And
there is no fatal handicap except the
disposition to regard ones handicap
as fatal.-Satu-day Evening Post.

President Jordan Exposes Favorfte
Scheme Of Cotton "Bears."
President Harvie Jordan, upon his
turn to Georgia from a tour of the
southern states In ths interest Of the
movement inaugurated by the South
ern Cotton Association, has written
an article for the press Of the south,
in which he points out that there
will be- a great reduction of acreage
in every section Of the south. Mr.. Jor.
dan is well satisfied with his trip and
the results accomplished.
In this interview he calls attention
OF the press to the fact that all sorts
Of "bearish' literature is being dis.
seminated throughout the country for
the purpose Of influencing people in
every section to plant more cotton.
He cites instances of where the buy
Ing of 80 much cotton in Texas is all
a fake and shows up In decided terms
a well known cotton buyer in the
Lone Star state. Mr.. Jordan says:
"Never in the history Of the south
has so much 'bearish'' literature been
disseminated throughout the entire
cotton producing belt as has been
done during the past few months. The
press of the south has unwittingly
published an enormous amount IT
these misstatements, sent out in spe-
cial dispatches by people who are in
terested in depressing the price OF
cotton, and have been used as me-
dunn to create false impressions upon
the minds Of the people with reference
to the present movement OF the cot
ton crop. While the entire press Of
the south has given to the Southern
Cotton Association and its objects and
purposes the most loyal support and
cooperation. nevertheless the columns
of their papers have been used to
further the cause Of the bear element
through the publication Of misstate-
ments which have been furnished the
press as, apparently, coming from au.
thoritative sources. The time has
come when the press Of the south
should critically scan all statements
furnished them from such sources and
refuse to publish information Of that
kind until after a complete investi-
CATION has been made as to the truth
fulness Or fslsity Of the statements
made"
