URGES POWER BONDS

"The effect of having a great harbor
so near at hand will be a great reduce
ton of freight rates on all or those
things that Ventura county has to sell.
With the completion Of the Panama ca
nal, within the next few years, san
Pedro will become a port Of call Tor
vessels from all ports in the world, and
particularly for coast to coast lines that
will compete with the transcontinental
railroads. Competition will be sharp,
and it is confidently expected that
freight rates to the east will be reduced
more than one-half. All of this saving
will come to the grower, for under the
present system of business 1t Is he VINO
pays the freight.
|Everywhere there Is great port
there are light draught boats that
gather the freight from nearby local
tiles and assemble it, as cargoes, for
deep sea ships, in warehouses at the
harbor. The charge for this trans
portation is very low, sometimes less
than cents per hundred weight There
is no doubt as to the fact that such
lines of boats will be operated from
SAN Pedro and when they are the
freight question for Ventura county
will be solved.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-04-09
Will LOWER FREIGHT RATES

''Many tons of beans are now shipped
from Ventura by water, but they go to
San Francisco and are there trans
ferred to steamers that take them
to Tehuantepec, where they are
shipped across the isthmus by rail
and again loaded on ships that take
them to their destination. All of this
handling costs money. yet it is cheap
er than the transcontinental rail rates
It will cost very much less when the
coastwise boats pick up the beans In
Ventura and transfer them to YES
sci at San Pedro that will take them
without more handling, to the eastern
seaboard or Europe.
What applies to beans applies al
SO to oranges, lemons, hay, cattle, min
erals and all other products of the
county, whether for export or con-
sumption in Southern California. Fast
steamers can make the run from san
Pedro to eastern coast cities in ten
days or less, and deliver citrus fruits
there in better condition than is pos
sible by rail. When these begin tc
sail from San Pedro most of the fruit
that now goes east by rail from Ven
tura county will be shipped by water
and the freight from near localities
will be gathered by coastwise boats
as it is done by the river boats ror
San Francisco"

Another Fight
On for Estate
of Joe Conner
Long Threatened War Develops
Among Relatives Over Cutting
Up of 100000 Estate.

Long-threatened warfare among the heirs
Of Joseph A. Common broke out in county
court Saturday when Franklin Lamb of
Chicago filed a $4,000 claim against the
estate OF the eccentric old man over whose
$4,000 worth OF property two terrific legal
battles have already been waged.
The breach which has existed between
Connor's sister. Mrs. Ellen J. O'Connor, and
her daughter Mrs. Mary Lamb, Of Chicago
wife of Franklin Lamb. is now in legal
evidence. Franklin Lamb is the plaintiff
in the suit in behalf Of his son. The really
moving spirit is doubtless Mrs Lamb, who
was the most prominent flgure among the
heirs in the contest with the church for
the estate.
The petition asserts that Joseph Conner
promised to bequeath $4,000 to his
granddaughter, Franklin, Lamb, jr., the
promise being alleged to have been made
to the parents on condition that the boy
come to live for a time with his grand
uncle.
Mrs. Lamb signed a division agreement
with Mrs. OConnor, Miss Grace Connor
the adopted daughter. and Mrs Mary
Hines of Colorado, another sister of Con-
nor. Mrs Lamb testified in the trial that
the reason she, a niece was let in on the
same terms as her mother. Mrs. O'Connor
was because Common had promised to do as
much for Franklin Lamb, the boy, as for
| Miss Grace Connor
With this one-fourth or one-fith share
"a five-part agreement was made later,
Mrs. Lamb was supposed to rest content
1t is patent that she has not and failing to
reach an agreement with the other heirs,
his initiated suit.
The Conner will case so far as the ad-
hitting OF the estate to probate, is now
before the supreme court where II was ap-
pealed after a district court jury has sus-
! tanned the county court in refusing to
admit the alleged will a copy Of which was
offered for probate. The proponents it will
be remembered asserted that the will was
in existence at the time of Mr.. Connor's
death and that 1t later mysteriously dis
appeared.
