A dispatch from San Francisco says:
The Bulletin of this city is engaged in
a unique contest with several hundred
newsboys who have declared a boyco..

The boycott is the result of the Bulle-

and his adviser. Abe Reuf, accusing them
Of grating and maladministration of the
city's affairs. In retaliation a newspoys-

The newsboys thereupon issued proc-

would bind it to sell four papers to them

MINIS GAINS
AN ADVANTAGE
Broker Discharged on PreIimi.
nary Examination
for Burglary

After a day of more or less sensational
incide ents, including severa gun plays that
at times looked decided y serious, an
other chapter in the Mims-Su,ro Bleak
more Lang contest for po ssion aid
control of the affairs of the liqudated
brokerage firm CT Mims-Suro Co at
Goldfie,d was concud d in the discharge
of E. L. Minis. at his preliminary exam
ination on a charge of having broken
into the office of eakmore and stolen
the books and papers belonging 10 ths
latter.
Early yesterday morning Minis entered
the office on Main street and engaged IA
an a,tercation with w. l.. Lang ana
others Of the Office force. He and Lans
soon came to blows, and a shooting af-
fray was avo 'ded cny after ex rerne
measures by bystanders. Later Minis
and two of his employees returned and for
a time there was the gravest darger II
forces. Firearms were in general evil
dence and 1t was expected that tragedy
would occur before the day had passed.
At the trial the attorneys for Minis
tried every trick of the law to proven
the issuance of an amended compla nr.
During the examination the secution
on the morn ng of June 17th Minis nal
entered the place of business, and, at
the point of a revolver, ceared it ou.
afterwards looting the safe of books and
papers, which were later secretly express
ed away.
Minis defense was that an agreement,
entered into on June 18th, for the Iu :
chase by Bleakmore of the office and
business of the old firm, was consummat-
tro, who conducted the deal and received
5000 as part payment. presented state
ment signed by Minis authorizing him to
act for the firm. An effort on the part
of the attorneys for the State prove
ownership Of the premises and the va.4d-
ity of the transfer was ruled out as in
competent evidence by Justice Bel, who
refused to admit any testimony relative
to the sale OF the firms property. This
gave the defendants attorneys decided
advantage in contending that Minis was
taking only property be.ongi.g to him
self.
Last night the atmosphere was some
what clearer as NJ ms and his followers
chartered an automobile and left for
Tonopah.

 that have already been shown to bt both possible and remnnerative. The breeding of horses, mules and cattle has given striking results, as there it no cold or wet winter season to give the young, stock ,a setback-only warmth and sunshine all the time, to make their growth both rapid and continuous. :, D, For the growing of seeds on a whole sale scale the conditions are ideal---ricl. soil, unfaiIing sunshine, and, generally water at the times and in the quantities required, Poultry raising affords good .retnrns, by itself, and. here. as elsewhere is d profitable minor industry on every well-regulated, farm, Success with certain vegetables and fruits is assured just so soon as packing-houses and marketing facilities are provided.
 Then again, sugar beets of extraor- dinary richness in saccharine matter, and cotton of the finest quality have been proved by. experiments on d considera ble scale to be crops of the future.
 So Imperial Valley will have all the industries it can handle, plenty of op 'n- ngs for different tastes, plenty of oppCr- tunities for different degrees of aptitude in word, that wide range of diver sity which gives to a community widely diffused prosperity and we'll insured stability. !"
 With such rapid advances being.nade the prompt extension of railway facili- ties is essential. lfrailway rates, in the absence of all competition, have been somewhat too high in the Valley the Southern Pacific Company has at least shown itself quick to extend it's line in response to the expanding development of the country. From Old Beach to the town of Imperial, from Imperial to Calexico--these are the two important sections the construction of which have followed closely upon each other. But Calexico, on the border, has not long been allowed to remain as the railroad head. Now the line is pushing out in a southeasterly direction into Mexico, and will sweep round until it joins the main line about ten miles west of Yuma. This will open upa rich new expanse ot farming land, and provide railway fat cilities for the entire territory on botll sides of the frontier. Thus there will be an alternative through route betweelE Old Beach and Yuma, and many travs elers will no doubt select it, as avoiding d stretch of veritable dese.t and affordS ing glimpse of the greatest moderif irrigation colony in the world. \
 All these are encouraging facts and promising signs, to record which is a genuine satisfaction. But the defects the glaring and radical defects--in the canal system of the California DeveloPS ment Company, which has undertaksit to supply the Imperial settlers wiNt irrigating. water, cannot be ignored, explained away, or glOssed over; they must be faced, met and cured before the possible full mea1ure, of prosperity to which the honest and energetic hi. peral settlers gre fairly entitled can be achieved. Ibes canal. system. must, in order to fulfill it's objects, be reorgan-
