They Are Afraid.

Reese of Dallas an amendment leader, said: Had I framed the constitutional amendment Sbill myself, I would have changed the second section so as to have eliminated the home,"-This is a frank admission; and had this been left out, and two or three sections in the Fuller bill, all would have been satisfied. And yet, had this been done, who imagines we would have had to vote on any amendment? It Is these straws that make votes against 1t. Many good prohibition ists are afraid of it, and are going to vote against it, in the interest of real prohibition.

COTTON SEED DESTROYED.

County Horticultural Commissioner w. E. Wilsie on Monday evening de- stroyed two bags of cotton seed sent to ranchers in Imperial Valley by a Los Angeles seed firm, in violation of the quarantine requ!rements in force by the State Horticultural Commission. The case was a particularly fragrant violation because of the fact that but a short time before the firm sending this seed had sent another shipment and immediately was notified of the provisions whereby all cotton seed must be sent through the quarantine officer for this district, who is to fumi- gate it before allowing it to pass to the purchaser, and that the firm had acknowledged the receipt of the noti- fication and printed instructions. Com missioner Wilsie in these matters is acting as deputy of the State Horti- cultural Commission, and not as q county officer, and he proposes to strictly enforce the quarantine regu- lations, in order that no possible op- portunity may be given for the creep Ing in of the boil weevil pest.

RIOS IN COUNTY JAIL
Man Accused of Murder of ouiroz, at Potholes, Brought to e Centre
 Last Week-Trial Soon.

The preliminary hearing of Victor Rios, charged with the murder of Do mingo ouiroz, at Potholes, on Wednes- day of last week, resulted in the hold ing of Rios to appear before the Su- perior Court of Imperial County. He was brought to Bl Centro on Friday evening and placed in the County jail.
 Rios is said to have shot five times with a revolver at Quiroz, two of the shots taking effect The victim was standing near 8 group of women at the time, and it Is said they narrowly escaped the shots of Rios.
 Both men were wood choppers em- ployed at the Laguna Dam, and each was an old-time resident of that sec tion. It appears that the trouble has been of several weeks standing, re- sulting from a horse race in which the animal owned by Rios was beaten by that of Quiroz and that Quiroz re- fused to give Rios return race. At the time of the shooting, Quiroz 1t is alleged, was unarmed.
 Under Sheriff w. H. Buck, District Attorney J. M. Eshleman and Coroner Mitchell went to Potholes to invetsi- gate the case, and the prisoner was brought back to El Centro on their return.
 The talk of lynching became so persistent that Under Sheriff Buck em- ployed several guards while the pris- oner was in the Potholes district.
 Quiroz was 65 years of age and bore a good reputation in the com munity He leaves widow and nine children. Rios is also a married man, having wife and two children Rios will be arranged before the Superior Court early next week.

Recommends Chamberlain's Couuh Remedy,


 As long ago as I can remember my mother was faithful user and friend of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but never in my life have I realized it's true value until now" writes Prof. H.. A. Howell, of Howell's American School, Havana, Cuba. "On the night of February 3rd our baby was taken sick with very severe cold; the next day was worse and the following night his condition was desperate. He could not lie down and it was necessary to have him in the arms every moment. Even then his breathing was difficult. 1 did not think he would live until morning. At last l thought of my mothers remedy, Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which we gave, and it afford ed prompt relief, and now three days later he has fully recovered. Under the circumstances 1 would not hesi- tate a moment in saying that Cham berlain's Cough Remedy, and that only, saved the life of our dear little boy" For sale by Dunaway & Lowe, Drug gists.
