WOULD GET THE BIG END.

The Pacific Fruit World, after giving the summary of figures recently pre- sented by l.. M. Lyon, the cantaloupe distribution, in regard to the valley melon crop and his analysis of the situation comments thereon as fol lows:
 MT. Lyon is out with bid for the control, as selling agent, for the whole melon output of the southern desert. He urges the growers not to stand for a further continuation of the "cut- throat" policy as now conducted by the competing distributors and states that he has in his pocket complete plan that will organize the whole val ley into a system that will protect the growers against the vicious methods of underselling competition and over stocking markets and that he will submit his plan in November.
 This would no doubt be good thing for Mir. Lyon and he would get the big end of the purse, win, lose or draw. What about the other dis tributors? Are they any more to blame for the losses last season than MT. Lyon himself? If this plan is to be carried out does anyone think that these distributors are going to sit idly by and see MT. Lyon walk off with the purse without a protest? It is within the bounds of reason to believe that if the present growers combined as MT. Lyon suggests that the other distributors will find grow CTS for other lands and that the total output will be greatly increased next year, instead of lowered as would in the natural course of events be the case. There is still plenty of vacant land and lots of water in the Imperial and Coachella valleys"

RESOLUTIONS OF cENsURE.
County Republicans Resent Action of State Central Committee in FaV-
 oring Democratic Sheet.

The Imperial County Republican Central Committee has taken official cognizance of the fact that the State Republican Committee has made an ass of itself in the placing of State printing at it's disposal, so far as Inn peria1 county is concerned. The Inn perial county Republican Central Com mittee is not consulted, but the State Committe placed with the only Demo cratic paper in the valley this print ing, while the five Republican papers were cooly ignored. So offensive was this action that committee was ap- pointed at the meeting of the county committee, last Tuesday, to formulate resolutions of censure of the State Committee.
 The committee at this meeting adop- ted a resolution which allows every Republican to vote at the primaries in the precinct in which he Is reg istered, regardless of the new pre- cinct boundaries fixed by the board Of Supervisors This applies to the pri- maries only, and at the general cleo tion each voter must vote at the pre- cinct where he resides.
 The committe provided for an in- crease in the delegation to the county convention, as is noted elsewhere in The Press today.
