Efforts to Save Bed of Salt0n
Sea Given Up by South
ern Pacific.

Los Angeles. Cal, Dec. 1f.-With
the breaking of the Colorado river
through a $1.OOO,OO0 dixie. just COM
pleted by the Southern Pacific, settlers
in the Imperial valley have given up
practically all hope of saving their rich
farm lands from inundation. AS most
of these farms lie. from 20 to 200 feet
below sea level. there is little pros
pect of the waters being drained off
unless government engineers evolve a
plan to turn the river back into its
channel
Fenr Sea May Cover City.
Where today are rich towns and
prosperous farms, the future seems to
portend only a huge salt inland sea,
hemmed in by mountains. The city of
Imperial will be from so to 20 feet
under water should the waters not be
damned shortly.
The transcontinentai line of the
Southern Pacific is doomed already
Orders were issued yesterday to rush
1000, 600 ties and rails to Mecca TO
build a new line beyond the mountain
ranges for a distance of 40 miles.
Gangs of men have been ordered to
begin operations Immediately upon re-
ceiving instructions from General Man
ager Calvin.
Southern Pacific Quits Fight.
Southern Pacific officials are of the
opinion that the railroad will give up
the struggle with the waters, as it is
estimated that $4,000, 900 more would
be required in a second attempt to
turn the river back into it's old chan
mel. But there is no assurance of the
permanency of the work. Should the
Southern Pacific abandon the fight,
the entire region is doomed unless the
government will take immediate steps.
To add to the gravity of the situa-
ton, the river may scour it's way back
through deep canon and carry away
the s3,000.000 government dam at La
guna, 10 miles above Yuma.

Should this dam go out no human
agency can raise water from the river

LET ISLANDERS IN
Burden of Message of President
to Congress Regarding
Porto Rico.
SAYS PEOPLE ARE READY
Enlightened and Patriotic and Should
Therefore Be Made Full
Citizens.

Washington, Dec. 11.-President
Roosevelt today submitted TO congress
d special message on Porto Rico, the
result of his recent visit to that island
while enroute home from the isthmus.
The increase in exports of the Ameri-
can possession to more than double
what they were in the best years un-
der the Spanish regime is commented
upon as rejecting the improvement in
government now enjoyed and congress
is complimented for legislation that
worked to this end.
Ready to BE Citizens.
The president, however, believes
that the time has come when the peo-
pie are ready for full citizenship. and
in the following language
that it be conferred:
There is matter to which l wish
TO call your special attention, and that
is the desirability of comforting full
American citizenship upon the people
of Porto Rico | most earnestly hope
that this will be done. l can not see
how any harm can possibly result
from il, and it seems to me a matter
of right and justice to the people of
Porto Rico. They are loyal, they are
glad to be under our flag, they are
rapid progress along the path
of orderly liberty. Surely we should
show our appreciation of them, our
pride in what they have done, and our
pleasure in extending recognition for
what has been done. by granting them
full American citizenship"
