STREET IMPROVEMENTS
Repairs on Main Street and Plans for Grading of Fifth street-More
 Cement Walks.

Street Commissioner D. D. Pellet is making extensive repairs on Main street, by having all the chuck holes, which have existed since the hauling of last seasons cantaloupe crop, filled with the earth taken from the site of the Thomas Beach block.
 Another good work is being done at the crossing of the Southern Pacific railroad on Broadway, where holes are being filled. It is the hope of Commissioner Pellet to secure a cross ing oyer the railroad at this point. Often teams are held while trains stand across Main street, and the Broadway crossing would give desired relief from this interruption of traffic. It is probable that crossing for State street at the railroad, will also be secured.
 Citizens residing on Fifth street have started a movement to have Fifth from Main to Orange streets graded, the natural soil being shaped up so that it may provide drainage and may be kept in condition by sprinkling, It is proposed to donate the labor of several teams and men, and to put the city team on the work, which may be undertaken this month.
 Indications point to the improve ment of the north side of Broadway, from Fifth street to Main, with ce- ment pavement, and possibly the eX- tension of this s-dewallIing from Fifth to Fourth street, on Broadway, A poll of property owners is being talk en with this end in view,
 Sidewalk has been laid on the north and west sides of the Hotel Oregon. A wide pavement has been laid this week in front of the Levy block, on Main street.

REPUBLICAN RALLY
Mir. Shenk, Of CaIexico, Holds a Rati.
 ricarIon Meeting.

CaleXico Republicans held a ratifica- ton meeting last Saturday night In the absence of the president and vice president of the Republican club the meeting was called to order by Sec retary Shenk, who did his best to arouse the crowd to enthusiasm by reading one of Judge Taft's decisions in an injunction case and the Chicago platform. The audience refrained from interrupting the reading with demonstrations of delight, but it ap- plauded when it was sure that the secretary had reached the end
 pr. R. P. Shepherd, of El Centro. was the speaker of the evening, and he made a rattling good speech. Mr.. Sbenk had harbored doubts of the wisdom of letting "Campbelite preach CTS" participate in the doings of the Republican party, having a notion that they could not possibly know any thing about politics and public affairs and he had been heard expressing his opinion on the matter. Dr. Shep- herd remarked incidentally, for the benefit of the Shenk understanding that he was teaching political econ Oluy before some of the kid politicians of CaleXico were born, and he also said things about debauchery of the franchise and outrages on decent cit izen5hip which should have made the ears of some of his hearers sizzle.
 After the speaking, the secretary announced that sandwiches, coffee and cigars would be served, and with the
 savoir faire" which is his distin- gushing characteristic, earnestly re- quested the guests of the club to re- turn the spoons. The spoons were returne4

PROMOTION RALLY
Heber Citizens Start Fall Campaign With Lively Meeting and Dis
 cuss Good Roads.

The first meeting of the Heber Chamber of Commerce for the fall and winter campaign was held in the dining room of the new hotel last Tuesday evening. The attendance was highly gratifying to the officers of the chamber, as both the town and sur rounding country was we'll represent ed, and the room was taxed to ac- commOdate the assemblage.
 l.. F. Srack presided, and the pro- gramme was confined to the discus sion of purely local topics, with the exception of presentation of the plan for @ general advertising campaign for the valley.
 Definite action on this matter was deferred until the next meeting of the organization.
 John F. Giles, president of the COun ty Chamber of Commerce, made an address in which he dwelt upon the needs of the valley in securing new corners, and upon the high character of the settlers now located here Brief talks were made by Edgar F. Howe of the Imperial Standard and Ous B. Tout of the CaleXicO Chron- icle. Then followed general dis cussion of local matters.
 The necessity for system of good roads was urged and found ready as sent; and the advantage of tree plant ing along the highways was pro pounded by several speakers. A plan was tentatively formed for the open ing of public highways along each half-section line and the setting of shade trees along every such road at the time it is opened.
 The Heber Chamber of Commerce plans to take up this work in a sys- tematic manner and hopes within @ year to bring about great transfor- nation in the adjacent territory
 Many ladies were present at this opening night, and they are to be asked to join with the men in the work of the local chamber. At the next meeting a special effort will be made to increase the membership.

PREPARED TO PLANT LARGE ACREAGE, BUT INDisPosED TO
 SIGN BINDING CONTRACTS.
GIN AND PRESS ASSURED
Necessary Machinery Win be installed
 at EI Centre When Seed Goes Into
 Ground-Census of Probable Acre age Desirable, But Not Demanded.

Cotton growing in Imperial Valley was given another substantial boost last Saturday through the mass meet ing held iE the Bl Centro schoolhouse. That cotton will be grown on a com mercial scale next season in this viz cinity is now assured. That a cot ton gin and compress will be estab- lished in Dl Centro is equally certain. for the growing of the crop assures the coming Of the gin and compress. r The meeting Saturday was presided over by Ira Aten, chairman of the special committee, composed of MT. Aten W. E. Wilsie, R. Il. Portis, Chas. Stevens and w. R. Carey, appointed at Q previous meeting, to arrange for bringing the prospective cotton grow CTS together
 The school room was crowded with men from various sections of the val ley, anu the subject of cotton growing was generally discussed, on lines sini- lar to those reported in this paper last week-the concensus of opinion being that Imperial Valley gives prom lse of far exceeding the most famous cotton belts of the South in the yield of cotton and it's quality.
 Unfortunately, presenting of the actual proposition to determine how many acres would be pledged for planting was delayed until a consid- erable number of ranchers were called away to attend to their trading before their departure from town, but among those who remained there were pledged 320 acres.
 Those who have been making close inquiry into the situation de- clare that they have knowledge of at least 590 acres that can be depended upon as certainty now, and that they have good reason to believe that a canvas of the ranchers will show that from 1900 to 2000 acres will be pledged readily for cotton planting next spring.
 El CentrO men, who have had ample experience in both the raising of cot ton and the installation and manage ment of cotton gins and congresses, declare that they stand ready to erect all the necessary machinery at EI Gen. trO as soon as they see the cotton seed go into the ground They require no other assurance, as they have strong faith that the crop will mature on paying basis.
 To the end that accurate knowl- edge may be obtained as to the acre age proposed to be devoted to cot ton next spring in Imperial Valley, the Ten Thousand Club will open an enrolment at the office of it's secre- tary There is no pledge to sign a contract in this proposition; but simp- ly an attempt to keep an accurate record of the proposed acreage.
 All ranchers who propose planting cotton next spring will aid the indus try by calling at The Press office and leaving a memorandum of the acreage. they propose to plant. If it is incon- venient to call personally then send the desired information to Lewis Hav- ermale, secretary Ten Thousand Club, Fl CentrO, and the aggregate results will be announced as soon as the re- turns are completed.
