A Yuma dispatch says: Actual sur.
veying for the right of way Of the
San Diego q Arizona railway through
the Imperial valley country was COM
menced this morning from the San
Diego end, according to official infof-
nation given out at the office of the
engineering department Of the rail-
way.
The work Immediately in prospect
will take the line from the terminus
of the present survey at the summit
o fthe mountains eastward across the
Imperial valley. From there on the
route is yet to be definitely determin-
ed, although the engineers of the rail-
road have already been over the field
and a number Of possible routes have
been investigated.
A field force consisting Of twenty
two men will begin work on the I'm
peria survey and under the direction
of Engineer S. n. Witt will start at
a point near Dos Sabezas Springs,
about eleven miles northeast Of the
Jacumba valley. 1t is planned to
keep on the American side of the line.
although it is very probable that two
or more lines will be surveyed to de-
termine the most feasible route
1t is the plan of the engineers to
have the railroad cross the New river
somewhere between the cities Of I'm
perial and CaleXiC0. While no def
rite time limit can be placed upon
the work necessary to complete the
survey, it is estimated that from three
to four months will be consumed In
finishing this part Of the gigantic rail-
road building task.

SAY The LARRAzOLO
CONTEST WILL
CONTINUE


Prominent democrats, who are i'm Il
position to know, assert mat the
statement made in the Morning Jour
nal few days ago to the effect that
it has been determined to drop the
Larrazolo contest against NIlllam u,
Andrews for the good OF the terrl"
tory. is incorrect, ana that IN cph est
will be heard to its finish This e
ing the case, the matter viii come up
before the house committee on the
first of April. the date fixed some
time since for the hearing The
democrats propose to place before the
committee evidence by which they
propose to try to prove fraud in VAL
cncia, ColfaX and Torrance counties
through which they Will allege SUI
ficient number Of votes We're switched
to Andrews to have elected Larrazolo
by a safe majority.
IT was generally understood some
weeks ago that influential democrats
had urged that the contest be dropped
because of its probable effect on the
statehood situation. 1t is asserted by
some of these Same democrats now,
however, that since the statehood
question is out of the way for the
present session, there is no reason
why the contest should not proceed.
There was ar agreement made by
which the hearing went over until
April. The hearing is generally con-
sidered unfortunate for the territory,
since it is conceded that there Is not
one chance in a thousand of Mr.. Lar
razolo's being seated, and since it is
pointed out it win serve to show up
in glaring light the extreme weakness
Of Delegate Andrews at home and the
somewhat dtapidated condition to
which he and his friends in the re-
publican party have brought the or
ganization This extreme weakness
on the part Of the old machine lead
ers who are Andrews only support
ers and to whom republicans in Wash
ingtOn have been taught to look, so
far as republican New Mexico is CON
cerned. it is argued, can do the terri
tory little good in its effort for ad-
mission to the union before repub-
lean congress.
The democrats say, however that
LarrazolO defeated Andrews, that they
propose to prove it, and if possible TO
get their candidate seated.

ADJOURNMENT IN SIGHT.
Mississippi Lawmakers Have Nearly
 Ended Their Labors.

Jackson, Miss, March 16-(Special)-The Mississippi legislature Is going to adjourn this week. By resolution March IS has been fixed as the date of adjournment, but the chances are the session will con- tinue few days longer.

The la bors of the session could not be com- pleted under two or three weeks, but the members are tired out and determined to go home.

cHlcORY FIRST USED BY DUTCH. War Blockade Responsible for Discov-
 cry of Good Qualities of the Root.

Although chicory was probably known and used by the ancient Romans as pot herb, it remained for the Hollanders about 200 years ago to discover that the roots of the chicory plant dried, ground and roasted produced a drink like coffee, both palatable and hea1thful.
 During the Napoleonic war strict blockade of the continent of Europe was maintained and all importations of cofree, tea and cocoa ceased. This forced the people to turn to chicory as beverage and it soon came into general use.
 So good was its taste, so rich was it's aroma that the new beverage at once be- came exceedingly popular with the good Dutch housewives, who are known the world over for their ability as cooks.
 After the war when ample supply Of coffee could be secured. the Hollanders were loath to give up their chicory AS q result they blended coffee and chicory and produced the good old Dutch coffee TOW served in nearly all hotels, restau- rants and homes in Europe.
 Not only did this blend produce that rich aroma and flavor, but it was found that chicory counteracted the bad effects of straight comee Those who found ordi- nary coffee injurious drank the combina- tion and it proved both refreshing and healthful.
 Thus it is seen that chicory has been used for centuries Tn Europe, where IL is regarded as a necessary addition to cof- fee.
 Americans began using chicory as soon as they realized it was put on the mar ket to improve the quality of coffee and not in any spirit of dishonesty. Fortu- nately the new United States pure food law requires all makers to state on their packages what the contents are and this rs otects the buyer from all substitutes for pure coffee and pure chicory and in- sures grade equal to that from which the old-fashioned Dutch beverage is made.
 Through our foreign born citizens so consistently demanding it, the merits of chicory have become known by word of mouth until those who have heretofore been disappointed in securing the rich, full coffee flavor in their morning bever- age have found that by buying coffee mixed with chicory, they secure the exact combination they have been seeking.

OFFICES TO BE ABOLISHED.
Yazoo City Starts Move to Dispense
 With Treasurer's Office.

Jackson, Miss, March 16-(Special.)- The legislature may not make a law of the Potter bill authorizing the abolish ment of the offices of county and city treasurers, but the board of mayor and aldermen of Yazoo City, appreciating the fact that there is now no more use in having a salaried treasurer than there is to have a fifth wheel to a wagon, has adopted an order abolishing the office of city treasurer on and after the second Monday of April, 1910, the end of the present term.
 Yazoo has had the same experience as Newton had a year ago in the election of an officer who had not paid his taxes In time, and who was disqualified from holding. At Newton it was the city mar shal while at Yazoo City 1t was the treasurer. Yazoo has ordered a special election to fill the present vacancy, but after this term will turn over it's funds direct to the bank offering best induce ments.
