The Los Angeles Times Is out with a prospec ctus of Its coming mldwlnter issue. As usual The Times seems tc be leaving nothing undone to make this great annual issue of Southern Callfornia's s big paper surpass all Its predecessors. The prospectus states that 1t will contain more than 200 pages of illustrations and articles descriptive of Southern California and the trlbu- tary southwestern country, covering the agricultural, horticultural, oil and mineral development of this whole marvelously productive section.
 These special editions of The Times which have appeared regularly year af- ter year filled with truthful information about the Land we love-" have, with out doubt, done much to place before the people of the country the many climatic and other attractions in which every Californian takes so much natur- al pride. Every loyal lover of the State can do his or her mite toward boosting" by sending one or more of these great papers to friends who hun ger and thirst for straight information. Price of the paper mailed to any ad- dress in the United States Is l3c.

Gant'S Reply to Edgar

EDITOR: respectfully ask space in your paper to answer w. A. Edgar's Appeal for Gleason" for served on the board one year with Edgar and Gleason, and as auditor with Edgar. Mir. Edgar says: Your company has reached very critical time In Its hls- tory. The California Development ment company Is in transition from old members to new men," l, for one, am pleased with the change and now think the critical time has passed. Mir. Edgar also says: Your company must be on hand to explain, interpret and to guard every valuable feature of those contracts; are you going to give this important work in the hands of a new pre- esidentp" Now l should be very glad to try new man, for while
 was on the board Gleason interpreted a contract, which was, think, to the interest of the California Development company and according to my calcula- ton we lost several thousand dollars.
 Gleason told me while on the board that he would move his famllyIto Oak land and Edgar wanted me to allow Gleason and McKlm mileage by so do- ing. We would then have established a precedent for allowing directors mile age and as 1t Is about 700 miles to Oakland. had we established such a precedent. Gleason would have had a good time riding back and forth at your expense. Edgar says that Gleason de- sired to resign from the presidency and from the board several weeks ago to

pass by they will all have prop
 erty of far greater value than
 they believe to be possible at the
 present time. With the two years
 extension of time this is not only
 possible, it is inevitable. With
 ont it these people will lose all in
 a very short time. We believe everyone should write to their congressman and senators urging the prompt passage of this bill. It IS especially recommended that those who have acquaintances among the congressman and sen- ators in their old home states should write them and urge them to support this bill. It means much to the Imperial Valley and especially to those whose lands have been damaged by the flood waters, as it gives all our settlers a square deal"

A BILL WITH MERIT

Ou6 LII LuG III St Olllo tO OS HI
 troduced in congress by Senator Flint and the one which should be most promptly passed IS the one extending for two years the time within which entrymer on public lands in this Valley must make final proof. This bill will especially affect the people of No. 6 and No. 8 where the flood wat CTS of the past two years have done the most damage. This condition has in some cases pre- vented the entryman from occu- pying his lands and retaining them and in other cases, where they had their lands already re- claimed and were in position to make final proof the floods have carried away their ditches and improvements. In great many cases the period of four years al- lowed by law in which to com plete the reclamation of the lands is so near at hand that the entry man will not have time to re- store his improvements before 1t will expire. There is every req son in justice to these people that they be given this extra time and we believe two years none too much time to give these settlers.
 There are substantial reasons why this bill should apply to the whole Valley, too, for while
 good many of our people were able to prove up and have done so there are settlers to whom the water dilemma was such an em- barassment that they were pre- vented from carrying on their work of reclamation. These peo- pie should be protected. and ln order to do SO 1t would be well to make Senator Flint's bill apply to the whole Valley. Another thing which such bill would forestall would be contests, which while legally right would be nor ally wrong. We contend that any settler who has been prevent ed from improving and reclaim ing his land by the floods of the past two years or even by the un- certainty and delay occasioned by the water situation that then ob- tained should be protected and given a chance to make good. " This bill of Senator Flint's will enable such to do so and while doing justice to the damaged set tier will not work hardship on anyone. Many of those who have suffered damages from the flood waters find their time too short in which to make final proof and
 are in despair at the situation which confronts them. With their time extended two years these people can go ahead and snatch success from the very jaws of failure. The great newI canal
 the California Development com pany is building will carry water to all these people in very short lime. Let them be encouraged to go ahead with their improve ,,antc and hafora the two years

 rectors, to a man, earnestly urged him
 to remain at his post until the end ol
 his term. Now, Is t possible that Van
 Horn and Whiting have gone back on
 the stockholders who worked so hard
 to elect them that we might have three
 men, so as to have the control for
 awhile. 1 think they should have let
 Gleason go. Why Is he afraid of
 abusep have not heard of any other
 director as being afraid. Edgar asks
 you to stay by Gleason, VsnHorn, Whiting and Record. Has Gleason
 captured the boys and formed ring,
 or Is Edgar mlstaken1 Edgar asks if
 experience counts. It seems with him
 1t does not count In handling water and silt, but Is good for the head of the
 ring. It seems to be Gleason's hobby to want to resign and told him two years ago how to do It. Edgar says he does not desire an office. As he and Gleason did not have large ma jorIty of votes at the last election, l suppose he thinks they will have to unite their votes on one man next time In order to elect. Give Gleason the votes and let him do the writing. He would serve If elected. Edgar says, "A critical time Is here" Letus req son the matter: The old California Development company turned the Col orado river Into Salton sea and then tried to turn 1t out again, but failed to do so. Land depreciated in value and much damage was done to settlers in California, as we'll as in Mexico and the railroad company also sustained heavy damages, Then came the rail- road company and turned the water out and understand will put the dltches in good shape and give us a good water service. The price of land Is advanc- ing and don't think the company will want arbitrarily to elect three members of the board of directors of Imperial water company No. l., bur will say: Boys, you are now all free. so vote as you please"
 l understand the railroad company has opened an office in Calexico to re- ceive and settle damage claims and our contracts are in writing. don't think the railroad company would want to violate contract with settlers, but will give them good water service and then the settlers would in turn give the railroad company freights and fares. l think we should elect honest men as directors and not let a ring be formed so strong that 1t cannot be broken. was In a ditch company once that had a ring composed of di- rectors that would favor men who gath cred proxies to vote for them by giving such more than his share of water, while water was scarce and valuable, and no charge was made for the same We might be short of water here, as we were once, when some of the stock holders got no water, but Geason's ranch, which was rented to the Ed ears got a good supply. We were getting water then at the minimum price, that Is, the man who received no water paid equally as much as the man who got the water and some of the men who received the most water had the largest damage claims, for water shortage, while many who receiv- ed no water got no damages.
 It seems Edgar wants to make 1t
