Of Peerless Beer Seized by
Constable Carr at 500
Depot Friday
Consigned 10 Two { Piggefs

Booze troubles have broken out in

Friday evening, Just as an appetisers
for supper, Constable Frank Carr seiz-
ed Is barrels Of Gunds Peerless beer
in the freight house Of the 500 depot,
and had it conveyed to the Office Of,
Justice Gilbert, who issued the search
warrant on AFFIDAVIT Of Constable Carr.
The beer was consigned as follows:
Six barrels to Ira Griffin, five barrels
to Josie Mccoy, and four barrels to-
Otto Reimer. There were two other
barrels there, but the labels had been
rubbed OFF and they were not taken
There were also three barrels consign-
ed to e. G Patterson. but that was
not considered an unusual quantity
for him and they were not moIested.
The seizure was made under the new
law passed last winter, and under
which cave full of wet goods was
seized and DESTROYED under the direc-
ton Of the i'll fated temperance com
missioner.
Two OF the parties to whom this
beer was consigned have been among
the prominent dispensers OF booze in
the past IN this city, and, remember.
Ing the report OF the late grand jury,
it would appear that the promises
made to that august body are not be.

The barrels were stamped on the
end with a rubber stamp For pr.
waite use, az though that would make
them immune from seizure. They
were also stamped: Deliver goods on

ORGANIZING FIGHT ON cATALoG.
HOUSES.
The Chicago Tribune gives some Of
the details of the war that has been
declared on the great catalogue hous-
es by the 100000 retail merchants of
the west. In one Of the most strik-
ing economic movements this country
ever has known, the small dealers are
lighting, as they say, for their lives.
The mammoth institutions, employ
ing thousands Of workers, doing their
business entirely through the medium
of their bulky catalogues, spending,
no money in the communities whence
they derive annually millions Of dol.
lars Of patronage are forcing increas-
ing numbers of home merchants to
the wall and, SO their opponents
claim, are making commercial grave
yards of once prosperous towns
In this life or death struggle, job
beers and manufacturers also are in
yolyed with the retail merchants.
An organized attack on the cata-
logue institutions is to be made by
the Home Trade League OF Ameri
which has existed for several months
in Chicago, largely as publicity bur
eau, but which is shortly to incorpor-
ate and institute more systematic
and aggressive campaign against the
catalogue. houses through a board Of
twenty-one managers, with a vice
president and an advisory committee
of ten members from each state.
The backbone Of the league is
formed Of commercial associations,
national in character in Illinois, Wis
3consin, Iowa, Michigan, Kansas and
Minnesota. The policy Of competi-
'zien with the catalogue houses as now
being conducted in a thousand cities
and towns, principally in the middle
vest. 1t is as follows: 3.

Eurer and jobber to give local mer-

tenn home merchants are compelled

tions, because they cannot buy as

before they send their orders to the

sifying Imperial county was nec- essary and legal under section 4006 a of the Political Code of this State"
 Until the Board of Supervisors determined the classification of Imperial county, it was not legal ly classed, no salaries had been fixed and no salaries were paid. There was no increase of salary during a term of office, and the cases and decisions on that point cited by the learned and lugubri- ous journalistic advocate of de- motion of the county to the Farms worth grade are impertinent, ir- relevant and immaterial.
 If the ukase of MT. Farnsworth, reversing Judge Cole, reducing Imperial county to the forty-third class and threatening dire disast- CT to anyone who disobeys him, is not a joke, it must be some thing else possibly a stupid inn pertinence.

BETTER TRAIN SERVICE

Determination of the Southern Pacific to go ahead with work on the Inter-California road beyond the point designated in the Mex ican concession as the minimum limit of construction for this year indicates that the line will be completed to Yuma without fur ther interruption and that it may be in operation within two or three months. While awaiting closure of the gap, Imperial Val ley needs and is entitled to better train service than it now has.
 All the east bound passengers on trains from Los Angeles at this season come to Imperial Val ley. When they leave the over land train at Imperial Junction, the coaches are virtually emptied. From 100 to 200 passengers change cars at the junction every night, frequently have to wait for an hour or two, and are then loaded into ramshackle coaches of prehistoric type. The service is unnecessarily defective, for the railroad is drawing a great revenue from Imperial Valley and can afford to give first-class service.
 What the traffic demands is a through sleeper, or two sleepers at this season, between Calexico and Los Angeles. Two clean, modern tourist coaches would be satisfactory, and they should be attached to night trains, arriving at Calexico and at Los Angeles in the morning.
 Improvement in the service is promised, and if the railroad peo- pie understand the situation and recognize the justice of Imperial county's demand for better con- veniences of travel, it will be in line with these suggestions.

tions complain that they are abused, and there is no doubt that some of them are subjected to reckless and unmerited denun- citation, but they are not all suf- fering saints and many of them will have to set an example of fairness before their right to re- buke the public is recognized. What objection can they make to the demand that they obey the law and let politics alone? They are not empowered by their chart CTS to govern states.

COUNTY CLASSIFICATION

The legality of the classified ton of Imperial county and the payment of salaries to county of- fcers has been passed upon and upheld by the Superior Court, whose decisions are not subject to review and reversal by MT. Farnsworth or any other dis gruntled person. Until the Su- preme Court, which is neither MT. Farnsworth nor the editor of the Imperial Standard the hal Inclination of those eminent per sons to the contrary notwith- standing says Judge Cole is wrong, Imperial county will re- main a county of the Beth class, and County Treasurer Roman will pay and threaten to con- tinue to pay" legal salaries to county officers.

STRENGTHENING ROOSEVELT

Standard Oils virulent animos- ity to President Roosevelt finds expression in an elaborately print ed and bound book, entitled "The Raid on Prosperity" which is being distributed free where it might be expected to do the most harm. The alleged author is Chancellor Day of Syracuse, the zealous beneficiary and defender of trusts, who worships at the shrine of St. John D. and has yet to see any money too tainted for him to accept with that lively an ticipation of future favors which is commonly termed gratitude. "
 The Standard Oil gang has been credited with preternatural cunning and adeptness in trickery that makes an Oriental diplomat look like a transparent fakir, but when it attempts to make an at tack from ambush it's coarse clumsiness appears as conspicu- ously as John D's bald spot when his wig is off. Chancellor Day is a snug, sidewhiskered lackey of the Rockefeller retinue, and he faunts his livery and gives away the source of his inspiration by supplementing his attacks on the President with fervid eulo- gies of Standard Oil.
 Instead of injuring Roosevelt, the campaign against him waged by criminal fnanciers, convicted and unconvicted, is solidifying his popularity and converting in- to active, positive Supporters of his policies thousands of men who have been inclined heretofore to allow their disapproval of some of his personal peculiarities to influence their attitude.
Imperial Valley press., 1907-12-21

In the face of peremptory ord CTS to quit doing business at the county seat and in audacious dis regard of dire threats of injunc- ton, which may be construed as contempt of the kangaroo court asserting jurisdiction over things generally in Imperial Valley, the Board of Supervisors has accept ed the bid of Los Angeles con- tractors for the work of building a court house, and the county of fees will be properly housed very soon, unless MT. Farnsworth in- sists on cutting the building down a story or two to make it conform to his notion of the size, class and importance of Imperial coun- ty. Having been notified to cease treating the notification syndicate with unseemly levity, the Press begs to assure that grave body that this is not a joke.
 Imperial county has incurred an expense of $7, 900 for a jail, will pay $12,O00 for building a court house and may be obliged to spend about $5, ,OO0 for furni- ture. That foots up $24, GOO, and no other expenditure along that line is contemplated by the Board of Supervisors. The county is now paying $500 a month rent for offices and the records are not adequately safeguarded. In- terest on $17,00O, the costof court house building and furni- ture at 8 per cent. is $1360 a year. If saving $2240 in rent is wild extravaganza, the Supervisors may be accused of "jobbing" the county and robbing the down trOdden taxpayer.
