Plant Almost Installed.

OrOndo people are beginning TO
believe that their water dreams are
about to come true. An 1S,OOO-lb.
pump is already on It's foundation.
also the electric appliances are here
for running the pump; several thou
sand feet of trench have been dug
of 12-inch pipe arrived today and the
rest is on the road. The Orondo
Water and Land company has ex-
perienced many annoying delays in
their efforts to get water in time for
their seasons crop, but the best in
sight now is sufficient water to set
the fruit spurs for next season.
Judging from the amount of grain
sacks being unloaded at this point
for the Waterville country a bumper
crop is expected. We are reliably in
formed that the grain houses will
open up here this fall as usual
Peaches will soon be on the mar
ket from this point The ranchers
are at present busy shipping apricots.

WOULD RECONSTRUCT
TRUE RURAL SOCIETY
SAYS COUNTRY LIFE NATIONS
PUREST SOURCE
Former Secretary of RooseveIt's Farm
Life Commission DepIores Passing
of Cuttings, Huskine Bees
and Barn Raisings

CHICAGO, April IA farm society
that shall be active in politics and rep
resent the rural population in the af-
fairs of the nation is declared to be the
great need in the United States by
Norval D. Kemp of Dayton, Ohio, for
mer secretary of Roosevelt's farm life
commission, in a communication to the
Chicago Association of Commerce.
Mr.. Kemp pictures country life as a
neighborhood community a few years
ago, and declares 1t has been much dis
turbed by manufacturing progress.
From this community" he says,
came the men and women of the United
States and they were strong and up
standing.
city life has not replaced on the
farms the community life that centered
in them-the cuttings and the husking
bees and the barn raisings. There is
no longer any such thing as a true ru-
raj country society founded on the life
and work of the country, embodying
high and constructive and realizable
ideals.
Shall we not, then, in simple justice,
devote ourselves to reconstruction
Shall we not try to learn where lies the
heart of both city and country inter
ests, replacing misunderstanding and
opposition with understanding and CO.
operation?
Our country life is the nations pur-
est source, for it is there that we renew
our blood"

FAILURE TO SECURE
MONEY CAUSES RUIN
BANKRUPT PRIEST EXPLAINS
TRANSACTION
President of Fidelity Funding Conn
pany Forced to Offer Big Bonuses
to Get Funds from
Banks

CLEVELAND, April 1.--Father VIII
lis Mcmahon, who filed a petition in
bankruptcy in the federal court here
Wednesday as the result of the enter
prises fathered by p. ]. Kieran, presl-
dent of the Fidelity Funding company,
maintains that If Kieran had been sue
cessful in securing all the money ne
needed to float his schemes everything
would have come out all right.
Il had great confidence in the abll-
ity of Mr.. Kieran." said Father Nc
Mahon today, but he did not get all
of the money from the banks that ne
needed and failure was the result.
Il first suspected that Kieran's plans
were not working out well when l
heard that he was paying large DO
muses. on loans. He often paid bank
a bonus of from % to 80 per cent of the
face value of the note upon which the
loan was obtained. In one instance he
gave a banker a single bonus of $780,
00O."
Attorney P. T. Brady, counsel for
Father Mcmahon. says the inside of the
transactions of Kieran have not yet
been shown and startling developments
may be expected at any time.
Father Mcmahon will have practic-
ally nothing left but his salary of $500
a year If he is declared bankrupt.

NUMBER OF BIRTHS
NEARS DEATH TOTAL
VITAL STATISTICS INDICATE
DIFFERENCE OF 3210
Growing Completeness of Registration
Accounts for Favorable Showing
of Figures of State Board
of Health

SACRAMENTO, April 1.-The vital
statistics, as registered in California
with the state board of health for 1905
give the following totals:
Births, 2S,O77; deaths, 31,2S7; mar
riages, 21,739.
BY growing completeness of reglstra-
ton the birth total for the state has
risen to within 3210 of the death total.
In fact, of the fifty-eight counties In
California, there are as many as
eighteen in which more births than
deaths were registered in 1908, these
being Alameda, Alpine, Fresno, Hum
boldt, Lake, Lassen, Los Angeles, Ma
dera, Marin, Mono Orange, Riverside,
San Luis Obspo, San Mateo, Santa
Barbara, Siskiyou, Tulare and Kings.
For the twenty-four freeholders'
charter cities the births totaled 1885
and the deaths II, 4S0, the births eX-
ceeding the deaths by 106.
More births than deaths were regis
tered in eleven of these cities, namely:
Alameda, Berkeley, Eureka, Fresno,
Los Angeles, Oakland, Pasadena, Riv-
erside, Salinas, Santa Cruz and Santa
Ana.
For the state outside chartered
cities, the birth registration totaled
only 10,491 against 1897 for deaths
the apparent birth total falling short
of the death total by 1916. This unfor-
tunate contrast indicates that there is
much need of Improvement in the
registration of births in several coun-
ties, as well as in some cities.

ONE MAN FATALLY IS
INJURED; TWO KNITTED
Savage ARRAY Is INDUCED in by
Laborers Employed on Point
Iona Railroad at
San Diego

SAN DIEGO, April lone man Is
expected to die and two others are in
jured severely as the result of saw
age affray between Mexican and Italian
laborers employed on the Point Iona
railroad this afternoon.
Jose Deturi is the man thought TO be
hurt fatally. He has an ugly knife
wound in the side. His brother Tony
and Camote Perez are cut up seriously.
Just how the trouble started is not
known, but there was pitched battle,
lasting nearly half an hour, between
the gangs of Italians and Mexicans,
knives, shovels and hammers being
used as weapons.
The American foreman. ]. R. Rogers,
was mainly instrumental in quelling
the disturbance, and he resorted to
rough measures to attain that end.
The affair ended by a spectacular
chase by the Italians after the Mexi-
can Perez. The latter finally took
refuge in the house of woman school
teacher, and later was taken to the
county Jail. The other injured men
were taken to hospital.

WANT THEIR RACE TO GO
WEST AND FOLLOW FARMING
Hebrew SheItering and Immigrant Aid
Society Will Instruct Passen-
gers on Steamers

NEW YORK, April 1.-As a means
of inducing immigrants to go west and
engage in agricultural pursuits rather
than settle in the congested cities OF
the east, the Hebrew Sheltering and
Immigrant Aid society will provide lee
turers with stereopticon views and
moving pictures on the big liners ply
ing between New York and European
ports.
Thus foreigners on their way to
America will be shown the advantages
of the west over city life before they
land, and will have this in mind before
they are swallowed up by the tenement
districts of New York.

NOTHING ELSE ON

MRS. EVANS STRONGLY FAv0RS
C00PER'S TREATMENT
HAS BEEN MISERABLE FOR PAST
FOUR YEARS
Young fasteners Visit to Los An-
seles Almost Over, as He
Leaves Here in Two
Weeks

Statements are being made daily by
many people of Los Angeles that are
the strongest sort of Endorsements or
l.. T. Cooper's new treatment.
Cooper has a theory that 80 per cent
of all sickness is caused by stomach
trouble, and is meeting the public at
the Owl Drug company's store, 625
South Broadway, to explain this theroy
and introduce his preparation, which,
he claims, will regulate the stomach
in six weeks time.
Among several statements made
Thursday afternoon was the following
by Mrs. j. r. Evans of 305 East Thirty
second street, Los Angeles. Mrs. Evans
said:
II have been great sufferer with
chronic stomach trouble. At times L
could eat nothing but liquid food. |
rarely could eat meat of any sort, and
even fish fermented almost at once In
my stomach and would come up again
shortly after finished eating it. was
nervous and depressed and slept very
badly. / had become so Respondent
over my condition that l thought
nothing would help me.
About a month ago one or my
friends told me of this Cooper treat
ment and insisted that I try 1t. Upon
her advice l saw one of Cooper's as
sistants and obtained the treatment
1t was a lucky day for me when l did
so, as 1t helped me from the first day
1t is not like any other medicine nave
ever taken. 1t seemed to soothe my
stomach and act like a tonic. 1t has
built me up in every way and I am
100 per cent better than for years.
don't believe there is another medicine
like 1t on earth"
In an interview Thursday Cooper
said: MY visit to Los Angeles is al
most over. Many thousands of people
in this city are now taking my medi-
cine and I have certainly been here
long enough to give all who wish to
call an opportunity to do so. l shall
be here about two weeks longer and
then go to San Francisco. ADV.
