the cotton groVers ike the tobacco
growers are receiving much better
prices foI their cotton than they did
a few years ago. Bat II farmers

LAND OFFICE RULING
 GESTURES SETTLERS
lContinued from Ist page)

--+--- steal, more power to him.
 The jumper is an undesirable citi- zen, and his presence will not be tol- erated very long in any valley com munity. The contestant at law, if honest in his methods of questioning the legality of titles, may be useful.
 If spectators have acquired title by fraud, they are re sponsible for the insecurity of tenure alleged to exist in Imperial Valley and they are as undesirable citizens as the jumpers of whom Mir. Gleason writes with such eloquent in dignation.
 It is of paramount importance that the scope of the Land Commission CTS ruling be clearly defined, and if it is intended to prevent the issue of final receipts to the actual reclaim CTS of desert land, the matter should be presented to the department so thoroughly and the enect explained so clearly that there can be no ex- cuse for a refusal to modify the rule.
 Instead of arbitrarily ordering the Los Angeles Land Office to observe rigidly a technicality, regardless of consequences, the Commissioner might we'll leave some discretionary latitude to the officials who are famil- far with land conditions in Imperial Valley, and so shut the door that seems to have been opened to specu- lating land lawyers and jumpers.
 More definite information as to the policy and purpose of the Land Com cissioner is needed, however, and the right sort of representative sent to Washington should obtain that and present the case of the settlers fully. The water companies appear to be taking the right course for protection of the settler
 A meeting of the El Centro Cham Der of Commerce is called by Presi- dent Brown, to be held Tuesday night in the school house, for discussion of this question and consideration of the action of the mutual companies. Ev- cry settler in the district should make it his especial business to be there.

VALLEY EXCURSION
Visitors from Los Angeles to Be Here
 This Month.

The Los Angeles Chamber of Com merce excursion to Imperial Valley has been postponed to February 27, because the date first set would have brought two special trains here on the same day, and caused difficulty in properly taking care of two large par ties of visitors.
 According to the schedule arranged for the train, the excursionists will visit Brawley first, remaining there until 1O:30 a. m. on Friday; Imperial from ii a. m. to D. m.; Fl Centro 5:3O D. m. Friday to Saturday morn ing; Calexico Saturday forenoon: Holtville Saturday afternoon; El Cen tro Saturday evening.
 This will give the visitors day in which to see Brawley and Imperial and arrangements are being made at those places to drive them about the country and show them some of the valley farms. El Centro will enter tain the party two nights, and will provide a banquet of valley viands on one night and a reception in the Opera House, with music, on the other.

Save Money by Buying Chamber
 Iain's Cough Remedy.

You will pay just as much for a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy as for any of the other cough medicines, but you save money by buying it. The saving is in what you get, not what you pay. The sure-to- cure-you quality is in every bottle of this remedy, and you get good results when you take it. Neglected colds often develop serious conditions, and when you buy a cough medicine you want to be sure you are getting one that will cure your cold. Chamber lain's Cough Remedy always cures. Price 25 and 50 cents bottle. For sale at the Fl Centro drug store.

HIGH-CLASS MUSIC
Excellent Programme Finely Rem dered by Fl Centro Prayers at
 Sacred Concert.

The Fl Centro band-twelve in Struments-under the direction of Antonio Scarpa, gave a free sacred concert in the Opera House last. Sun day evening. An excellent pro- gramme was carried out very satis- factorily. In addition to the concert numbers, several solos, instrumental and vocal, were given.
 The violin playing of, Murray Sto- yer was notably fine. MT. Stover played the Spring Song" with the touch and feeling of an artist, and responded to an encore with the eX- quisite "Traumerie," fiawlessly ex- ecuted.
 Vocal solos by Mrs. Hayden and Miss Balcom were especially pleasing, and Parmegiani dispiayed his master ship of the trombone in the playing of La Donna E Mobile" from "Rigo- letto"
 Mrs Walter Chamberlin appeared for the first time before an El Centro audience, and proved herself pianist of more than ordinary skill.
 The concert was a complete sue cess and demonstrated a high order of talent and training among the mu- sicians of this community.

BILL TO RELIEVE
 THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Government Asked to Pay
 Colorado River Flood Bill
Proposed Appropriation Looks Large Enough to Cover Cost of Moving Tracks at SaIton Sea - Mysterious Item of Forty Gents.

On January 20, Senator Flint intro sduced a bill to reimburse the South ,ern Pacific Company the amount al legged to have been expended by it from Dec. i, 1906, to Nov. 30, 1907, in closing and controlling the break in the Colorado river, and thereby pre- venting, in the words of the bill "the overflow and destruction of the Inn perial Valley in Southern California" ,"
 The amount named in the bill is S1,66S, ,13640 No doupt the Southern Pacific can show vouchers for $1,663,- 1S6, but what did it do with that forty cents? It would be Interesting to see an itemized account and to note how much of the S1 ,663, ,136.40 was spent in closing the break and how much in moving tracks out of the way of the rising waters of Salton Sea prior to Dec. 1, 1906.
 The second break occurred Dec. z, 1906, and was closed effectually and finally on Feb. 10, 1907 the actual time consumed in heavy work being about sixty days. During the pro- gress of the work, late in January, the expenses were stated by engi- neers in charge to be about $S000 a day, which would make a maximum total of $4SO, ,O00. When the break was closed, it was stated on the auth ority of the engineers, and published without elicting denial or correction, S325,000, and that completion of the 1evee would bring it up to about $500,- 900.
 For work done prior to the time of President Roosevelt's request of MT. Hartman that he undertake the clo- sure, the Southern Pacific loaned the money to the c. D. Go. and took that company's property and concession as security for the loan. It still holds that security, and it is clearly indi- scated in the Flint bill that the pro- posed appropriation for relief of the Southern Pacific is not intended to cover any expense incurred or money loaned prior to Dec. I, 1906.
 If Congress, with the approval of President Roosevelt, sees fit to reim- purse the Southern facific all it's ex- penses attributable to the break of the Colorado and the filling of Salton basin, nobody in Imperial Valley is likely to raise objections. With the cash in hand and still holding the c. D. Co.'S irrigation system, it's lands and its revenues, under virtual fore closure of mortgage, the Southern Pa cific might be encouraged to go ahead with the extensive improvement of ir- rigation works planned last year, fur ther safeguard the valley with levees and controlling works below the line, and soA give a great impetus to de- yelopmeht of the whole Imperial re- zion.
 If the Flint bill is not expected to pass, or to get by the President if it should pass, and the amount specified 1s intended only to fix the price at which the Southern Pacific would like to unload the system upon the set
