BEAUMONT AGAIN
 EXPANDS IN SCOPE TWO MAGNIFICENT SUBDIVISIONS PLACED ON THE MARKET
 IN FWE-ACRE TRACTS
Apple Valley and the Famous MeIIen Fruit Ranch Go On Sale at GrOund-F floor PrCes---At the Same Time Land Company Opens Permanent New Offices and Lecture Hall at 6l6 South Broadway

To meet the requirements of space and provide facilities for the handling of extensive and recently acquired tracts of Beaumont land, the Beau mont Land x Water Company on Mon day moved into and began transact ing business in it's new ground floor offices, GIG South Broadway. Several thousand dollars have been spent to install fixtures and decorate the room, unique fixtures of which include hand built desks for the corps of ten agents, a mezzanine balcony covering 500 square feet and a complete lecture hall, wherein three daily stereoptican lectures on Beaumont will be delivered by Mir John D. Reavis at 10:30, 2:30 and 500 D. m/ The offices and lecture hall will occupy 20x102 feet, making the establishment one of the most complete and commodious in the city.
 Concurrent with the new move, the Company announces the purchase of two large tracts of land, Apple Valley, comprising 320 acres adjoining the Highland Home Ranch, and also the famous Thomas Mellen ranch of 45S acres The requirement. of Apple Val ley is distinct business triumph for wealthy owners had held it for years, the land being of the highest quality. The grantors of the Mellen deal were Thomas and Helen Mellen, who have occupied the property continuously for 24 years. Fruits from Mellen's or chard took first prize at the Chicago Worlds Fair and the orchard is es- pecially famous for apples, pears and prunes of which there are about 1000 full bearing trees to 20 years old.
 Valuable water rights including ex- tensive riparian lands in Wallace Can yon, also passed to the Company in the Mellen deal thereby augmenting the supply of water for irrigating the newly acquired lands in Apple Valley. The subdivision of Apple Valley into 5-acre tracts is already complete and this with the Mellen ranch, which will also be offered in small sized plots, were placed on the market Monday morning. Water in steel pipes for do- nestle and irrigation purposes will be conveyed ito each holding and streets will be opened and graded.
 The value of the new tracts at ap- ening prices is over $115,000, and this when figured in connection with the sales to date of $440,000, will make the Beaumont proposition mount in volume to approximately $550,000. Fig ured on the basis oi sales of $4S,00n in February and March, the manage ment expects to pass the half million mark in less than five months, so in order to meet future demand, plans are already under way for other large subdivisions

The latter fruit thrives on ad- joining ranches to the highest degree the acre output reaching in some cases S400 Pear trees on Mellen's orchard years old are reported to have shown an equal return, while from an apple orchard nearby over $700 was realized
 The elevation of the new proper ties ranges from 2S50 to 3100 feet above sea level, which is ideal not only for deciduous fruit culture, but health as we'll Mellen's location, which has been known for years as refuge for asthmatics and sufferers from bron- chial troubles, is but 16 miles from Redlands, thereby placing the pro- ducts within easy reach of the mar kets.
 The original Mellen orchard and about 37 acres of implanted land ad- joining on the west, making about AS acres all told, goes on the market at the extremely low price of $500. This includes the ranch home, barn, cor ral, fruit storage and apparatus for drying the fruits. This is a rare and exceptional chance to buy at the right price one of the most famous pro- ducing fruit farms in Southern Cali fOrnia. Liberal terms of purchase will be made and as the crop is just com ing on, now is the time to buy
 Directly adjoining the planted Mel len orchard on the south, we have surveyeda fine tract of irrigated bench land into moderate sized ranches This is right on the banks of Edgar Creek, soil identical with Mellen's and still We are opening this acreage at the very low figures of $150 an acre with water. AS there is only limited area, quick action will be required to get it.
 Apple Valley ith 320 ac' of the finest lanL ohtainable, to lck from, will be opened at $100 to $200 an acre with water, thus giving one of the greatest ground floor opportunities since Beaumont was launched. Selec- tions at these prices must be made before May 18th when prices will be advanced $2.5O and $500 an acre or still higher.
 We urge you to call and inspect or write fOr the maps of the new tracts and make early and advanta- geous selections. Intelligent ideas of the new lands can best be had through attending the lectures at which com plete descriptions will be furnished.

VETERANS PASSING AWAY.

When the veterans of the 6,O57
posts of the Grand Army of the
Republic assembled for the roll call
on Memorial day this week the gaps
in the ranks were greater than ever
before, for records in Chicago show
that since May Both, 1908, nearly
$1,000 comrades" have passed to
tae last muster. The army now
numbers barely 100000. Less than
twenty years ago there was double
that number and even on December
81, 1907, the various departments
showed total membership of 225,.
l57. One by one, however, and two
oy two, the men who fought At
Gettysburg and Charlottesville and
Antiesam have dropped from the
ranks and each year fewer voices
have answered to the roll call. The
death rate that twenty years ago was
less than one per cent has row

and self respecting citizens while
Others perhaps never could be SO
trusted. Mr.. Burkesswas first to see
the points involved and to propose a
remedy which he embodied in an act
OF congress now generally known as
the Burke bill, in which he1provided
that the government should continue
to hold the lands of every Indian in
trust until such time as the com
missioner Of Indian affairs Imight
deem it wise to terminate it and vest
full title in any given case.
Mr.. Leupp says: "The Burke bill
is accomplishing more in settling the
Indian problem than any other sin
gle factor in generation. Compe-
tent Indians owning their lands in
fee and receiving their share Of tribal
property without restrictions cannot
by any course OF action maintain a
claim for further consideration.
Through such measures and their
the grand total of the
wards is diminishing daily
and with growing ratio, more than
$500 applicants for fee patents hav.
ing been approved in the three years
the Burke law has been in effect"
Mr.. Burke is strongly endowed
with business sagacity and common
sense, and the thing to which he
turns his attention is likely to be
settled in practical way. Living
rs he does in a part of the state
where the Indian problem is daily
'orced upon his attention he was
Iuick to see the weakness of the
ystem in vogue and the remedy. |
In congress he has acquired an
reputation for putting
through the measures in which he
, interested. South Dakota does

STATE INSTITUTIONS

South Dakota gets new college
this year, to be opened at Eureka by
the German Lutherans. This makes
eighteen institutions of higher learn
ing in the state, or one for every
27,777 people. This fact may explain
in some degree the reason why the
registration of our state institutions
do not boom to higher point The
support given to sectarian schools in
view OF the liberal endowment OF
the state institutions and the gener.
ally liberal views Of the people upon
religious questions is marvellous. 1t
however emphasizes the fact that
however careless parents may be in
matters of religious worship, when
they send their youngsters out from
them they want them to spend their
first years where they are surrounded
by the best moral influences and
even if they find the environment a
bit straight laced they like it all the
better for their children, believing
they will "liberalize' fast enough
when they get out in the world

COMPLIMENT FoR BURKE.

In the May number OF the Annals
OF the American Academy of Science
Hon. Francis E. Leupp, commits
sioner of Indian affairs pays Con-
gresham Charles FL. Burke,of South
Dakota, high compliment. In dis
cussing the Indian problem gener-
ally and the Indian lands in partic-
ular Mr.. Leupp tells how at the
beginning Of the allotment system
the lands of all Indians were held in
trust for period of twenty-fiv
years and then turned over to the
allottee without condition, but in the
progress OF time it was discovered
that Indians, like white men, are of
more than one sort, ranging in all
degrees Of Intelligence, industry and
thrift, and all depths of helplessness,
ignorance and vice, and that no iron
clad rule could with justice be
applied to all of them. Some OF
them could at once be trusted with
their lands and become independent
